has given them most pertinent rebuke
very curious letter, in which Queen Pomare, of
Tahiti, soliclts the protection of the English 60
vernment against France, has been published in
London.
Russia and Prussia have declined to Join Con-
gress to settle the affairs of the Peninsula those
powers recognising the claim of Don Carlos. They
have, however, intimated that France will not be
allowed alone to arrange the question.
The Catalsnan and Biscayan provinces of Spain
are still in state OF great disorder.
In another column, says Wilmer and Smiths
Times, will be found letter which MIR. James
Gordon Bennett has addressed to the London
Times, arising out of Mr.. OConnell's uncourteous
attack upon HIM at the Dublin Corn Exchange. The
letter is well-wrtten, and throws new light upon
the motives of the principal actors in the affair. as
regards Mr.. Buckingham, there is hardly ne,cspa-
per these Kingdoms to phich his puGs, pritten by
himself hare not been sent, and to insist upon char
ging for them as Advertisements leas legitimate
enough Mr.. Benefits letter has drawn out Mr.
Buckingham, whose statement we also give. The
latter, it will be observed, entirely shrinks from
noticing what MIR. Bennett says about the right to
charge for his (Buckingha )sellaudatory praises,
and unable, evidently, to meet the refutation he
presses Captain Marryatt into the service.
[From the London John Bull ]
Mr.. JAMES GORDON BENNETT, proprietor OF the
N York Herald, whose scurvy reception by O'Con-
noticed in our columns of the 18th ult, has address
sed letter to the Tlmes explanatory OF the cause
of that reception 1t lies in nutshell, if Mr.. Ben
nett speaks the truth, which we have reason to
in ITSELF abundant evidence of sufficient probability
He was manly instrumental, it seems, IN stopping
the supplies from American che cking the flow OF
American dollars into the Repeal wallet. The par
ticulars are of no moment. The fact itself is
enough. Daniel might have said to him what Shy
lock says to the court, "You take my life when you
do take the means whereby live" What! dam
up the current of the Repeal rent No wonder he
came in for the "Llberators' abuse or, as the no.
torous Judge Jeffles used to say, for &c" lick from
the rough side of his tongue"
There is one part OF Mr. Benefits letter which,
if it be incapable of contradiction, discoses the ul-
terror views OF the Repeal agitation. These views
may be chimerical, as we believe they are-certain
of being frustrated, we are sure they would be.
No mater We see in them what repeal really
means. Speaking OF its leaders in New York, Mr..
Bennett says-
They told me that many of them had the same view
the absurdy and impracticaby Of repeal of the LIE.
gisstive Union as had but they assured that the
great movement of repeal Ireland with its affiliated
emens in the United states ,oas only the beginning of
grand revolutionary drama, that could be able to
su'vert the monarches and arstoc-acies Of England,
Throughout all those countries On hearing this remarka
BILE disclosure had nothing further to say about the
echnicalities of Repeal.
When O'Connell reads this, he will of course
call Mr. Bennett ga liar,' or bestow upon him some
other equally refined and expressive ephet That
will pass for nothing, If for anything as testimo-
ny in favor of the truth OF Mr. Benefits statement.
What we are curious to ascertain s how the state
ment will be received in New York, and whether
any OF the leaders OF the repeal movement there,
who, though not named, must be well known, will
come forward and deny it. We shall not lose sigh,
of the business.
RKPEAL.aThe feature Of the week is the promul
CATION by O'Connell of his repeal constitution fol
ireland, and his intended distribution of her repre-.
| sentatives. He will allow The Bishops to have
seats in the House of Lords, adding also the Ro
mish bishops. The repeal rent is evidently decn.
ing, and the monster meetings are pretty well worn
out. The heads OF 1t are that Ireland maintain ALE
glance to Victoria, Queen, by undoubted right,
and by hereditary descent OF Ireland, and her heirs
ditary and personal of the Irish Peerage be preser-
we'd; that Ireland shall have House OF Commons
OF her own that there be one hundred and seventy
three county, and one hundred and twenty-seven
city and borough members; Dublin to have eight,
| Cork five, Limerick and Belfast three members
each; that vstng be by household suffrage, requr-
ing SIX months residence in counties, g with the
addition, in the towns, of married men, resident

that voting be by ballot; that the Monarch, or Re.
gent OF England de tacto, be Monarch, or Regent
OF Ireland de jure and that "the connexion be-
| tween Great Britain and Ireland, by means of the
perpetual and incapable of change, or any severance
or separation" This manifesto is signed by

subject Mr.. O'Connel said that the Queen had only

reporter, (who was absent from Dublin when the
threat was utered) subsequently returned to that
city, and in letter the journals stated that Dan

condemned by the whole of the gentlemen of the
press, OF whatever party they might be, and that
many would openly protest against It, This slgniii-
