The European Times says,
AT tho Repeal association on Monday prtoi~f
10th, Mr. O'Connell eyinced desire 70 rcccde Ut
tic from the high ground ON tho Repeal question
favorable to federal parliament III the government
would concede IT, Some assert that this locks very
like desire TO 4" back out !" but he expressed Il
seems, favorable opinion in favor Of that project
on more than occasion. notwithstanding the
| immense physical force al his commend Mr.. O'Con
nell has not hitherto joined TO any extent by the land
ed gentry of the country, and tho proposition may be
thrown out eeler in that quarter. lie repeated
his determination to stand by the constitution as long
as shred of it remained. The rent comes pouring
in to attest the feelings of the people against the
ercion of the Government.
1t would seem that if the Government intended, as
1t was stated they did, TO put down the association,
they did not consider il prudent at present to make
their intentions known The prosecutions will take
place next erm-the beginning Of the ensuing month
unless Mr.. OConnell desires to traverse which il
is said he can do if he likes, as twenty one days
ought to have elapsed between the time when he was
called upon to give bail and the day of trial, il the
powers that be wished to prevent him from avail
ing himself of that privilege. Should he DO so, the
trial will be thrown far into the next session Of par
lament, by which time it will be what the in
tentions of Government are respecting the present
crisis in Ireland.

OTHERS.
Mr.. OConnell, and his son, Mr.. J. O'ConnelI, were
arrested on Saturday, Oct Ia, upon warrants issued
by Judge Burton, Information sworn before him

caused, and hundreds assembled about the head
police Office, making anxious inquiries The parties
on duty there, however, replied that they knew no
thing on the subject.
Mr. O'Connell remained at his house in Merton |
Square, and, having received the sacrament was
waited upon at half past nine, by Mr. kemmiss, the

quested to know at what hour he would attend, with
bail, at Judge Burtons chambers. The hour fixed
three o'clock and, shortly before that time, Mr.

quenty arrived but the proceedings altogether
