SANDERS on the Irish.

To the Editor Of TIE Ifitun.:
One of your subscribers wishes, in your paper,
to notice the course pursued by the Editor OF the
Herald since his return from his late visit to Ire
land: he has not ceased To pour ont the vlals OF
his indignation not only against Daniel y Con
nell. but acains; the whole Irish nation. because
O'Connel would not take him by the hand and
acknowledge him worthy Of ms acquaintance
Il appears tnat Mr. O'ConneiI, beng acquainted
viii, his infamous character as the Editor OF the
Herald very prudentiy refused to hold any com
munioa with such a man. In the Herald Of Inc
9th. Bennett states that he has received letter
from Dublin. of unQuestionablc veraclty, stating
that conspiracy has been discovered to nassa-
ere Protestants Of Ireland on the day OF O'Con-
neI's trial and of this he also states that the
country people keep 10 secret" but are waiting
for the wore! Of command. and Dan IS at the
head and tail OF the plot" Now Mr.. Editor,
would ask wha, motive has this vile creature IN
circulating such fabricated stories IN Alneuc.
Should il not satisfy his malice to attack Mr.
O'Connell in his private character, and not Sian
der a whole nation Is he not aware that nc
may inurc many Catholic servants who arc IN The
employ of Protcsants IN this country Does ms
course not remind person of a passage IN Holy
Writ where Hannah, being cxaspcfateda at the con
duct OF Mordeca the Jew, medltated the deStruc-
ton of the whole Jewish nation. Benefits en-
mity to O'Connell knows no bounds, and conse
ouentlv viii be avenged of all the Irish. Ills
correspondent, if any such exist, is liar OF the
| most debased mind Is he not aware that Tn,
most intelligent and influential Professionals IN Ire
land are at the head of the Repeal movement
Does he believe that the Catholics OF Ireland arc
so lost to humanity as to imbrue their hands IN
the blood of their Protestant brother, and do all
this with the consent and knowledge of then
clergy, and Dan at the head and tail of tie
plot would ask Bennett, are these the lessons
of morality taught him in his youth, for he has
frequently asserted "that he was bred and educa
ted in the Catholic faith ~ If so, | entertain
strong doubts as 10 his docility, or to the mora
y Of his teachers for had they, IN his early days
taught him to utter the truth it would have savec
his back many severe cowhiding, and saved the
public from being outraged by his vile productions

TIE HOME CRlrlc-Ths is the title of a new
weekly proposed to be issued from this city, and
designed to occupy a place now left vacant
among our readers and thinkers. The want of
something elevated and manly in its tone, that
shall be an exponent to our higher literature and
shall appeal to our more thorough read and ed
ucated men is now deeply felt.
This paper proposes several things: LIST, to
criticisc fully and fairly every work that is worthy
OF it Cd, to give original articles from able men
contributions from foreign scholars, some of
which are already secured Sd, to assa the spirit
Of indiscrimlnatc praise OF bad and worthless
works, and the reckless selfishness that creates
and feeds the taste for depravcd literature; 4th,
to furnish medium through which our thinking
men can utter their thoughts freely and fully !;
9Th, to discuss grave subjects III becoming
spirit, and not leave them to the sncers or neg
lect Of self-interested men and lastly, to defend
American Literature from un Just foreign attacks,
and cherish and defend it at home.
We have long needed such paper issued
weekly; and if the wish 50 often and so strongly
expressed by large class among us for a journa!
OF this kind is sincere, 1t will not fail for lack Of
aid 1t will be also ii literary newspaper, gather
ing literary intelligence from tie different coun-
tries of Europe, and thus present an interesting
chapter OF Miscellany to the reader. Its aims
are certainly noble and the objects sought to be
secured by it worthy Of an honest effort. Men
of ability sufficient to carry out these plans are
already secured, if the subscription will sanction
The undertaking.
