fixed as ever in the affections Of the people, , 81
late meeting, he declared that the counci q
900 would be sitting in Dublin before H'"-
Years day. On the oath of SEPTEMBER t.'el'
were 10000 present at meeting III " a''-l'iN

and urged the people not to hurry Things 100 last.
:. The stage.coach of the Constitution me saio)
,ras GOING down the hill too rapidly, and ne
,,.snted to nut drag on it, His Court OF Arbl
,rators have met, {" and works WELL and while 1t
sets aside the machinery of the executive govern
ment, it is cleverly contrived to bind the appll
cants for Justice on the one hand, and to avoid
on the other the meshes of the statute law which
it insults So say the English. Sir Robert
Peel looks on and does nothing. Rumors are
aaoat that the Ministry are about to take some
measures to check the agitation, but we doubt It.
Now we have given this short recapltulatlon. Tor
the purpose Of showing that the subject of Repeal,
is still an object Of growing interest, over the
water. Ireland is not standing still, and merely
crying "hurrah," but is marching onward
slowly taking step after step, till 1t Will not be
|
recede, OF an explosion take place. The Engllsh
government is not SO unconcerned as she seems
to be. Beneath her quiet exterior is the deepest
anxiety. This is evident from the fact that when
the nation is shouting in Sir Roberts car, some
thing must be done immediately" nc does
notb;no. Now we believe there is no being in
her Maiesty's dominions would be so glad to do
something as he, if he knew aphat to do. Shall
he argue? He has done all in that way he cx
poets to do Shall he commence his retreat
1t would be the signal of his disgrace. He sees
nothing left him but physical force and that he
dare not use. For shall he precipitate standing
army on the people because they earnestly ask for
what was once wrongfully taken from them
Would the seizure of O'Connell tend to allay the
excitement? Nothing tangiblcis yet offered, and
when there is, England vii! hesitate, we think,
to resort to measure that will end, successful,
in a general massacre. Unless agitation shall die
of itself, we cannot sec how it IS to be stopped
without granting repeal except by scenes at which
the world would be shocked. But it is constantly
repeated that England will never grant repeal.
Perhaps not-yet she did the same in substance in
1882. She waited and hesitated, just as she does
now, until the Volunteer system arose, as if by
magic full grown in the land and an army of Irish
men stood before her. Delay only increases the
boldness of O'Connell and the people, and gives
them time to effect larger and hrmer organiza.
ton O'Connell designs to 60 on and assemble
the council Of 300. Suppose its acts are illegal,
and England puts forth her executive power; she
can but imprison the 300--and what thcnis gain
I'd A thousand times 800 stand ready to fill their
places Excitement will never grow less until
0'Connell's tongue is stilled-and an IRON fctter
IN that, we opine, would have any other effect
han to reduce agitation. "The drag would be
aiken off the Wheel and the coach Of the Con-
;titution 90 down the hill" with a vengeance.
Repeal is becoming every day more serious
matter and England feels it to be so. That she
will grant it before she will physical force,
we both hope and believe
