DEAR SIR
Every body here is delighted with Benefits letter
to the Times. 1t is an admirable piece of sarcasm,
and expresses very forcibly, what every body
thinks, that the conduct of O'Conne was brutal
and nhospitable in the extreme. The Repealers in
this city, who were Frustrated some time ago by the
publication OF O'Counel's anti slavery speech, have
been revived by the application of little soft soap
in the shape OF a letter from O'COnnell, thanking
them for their blunt" though most OF it was de-
rived from the labor OF the slaves. meeting was
held last night, and the filings and denunclations OF
the great repeater were forgotten under the pleasant
atery OF the letter accepting the splendid contrl-
button of ESQ A. Sd" Numerous orations were
made, and high sounding resolutions were passed
An ugly broken down political orator, who, having
been used by all parties, seems TO be despised by
ALL OF the name of Larue, held out IN some sophs-
tcal augmentation and shallow defamation, al
tending to show that O'Connel had the right TO say
what he chooses about slavery and saveholders,a and
it was nobody's business Father Mullon, the
Priest, made some good remarks. full OF Irish ter
vor and barney. The meeting finally adjourned,
and the repealers seemed much satisfied with them
selves and with O'Connell. The Tropic is pouring
hot shot into the cause. In thisit regenerates the
opinion and feelings of the majority of our people.

ported in the Charity Hospital the last week. OF
course, this does not include third OF the cases ~
