ADDRESS OF O'CONNELL TO THE pEO-
PIE OF IRELAND-PEACE AND QUIET.
/ People Of Ircland-Fello Count,ymen- Be-
lored Fello,c- Coanfrymew-- sentence is pass
ed. But there is another appeal from that SEN
tence. The appeal lies TO the House Of Lords.
solemnly ledge myself to bring an appeal
every prospect that it will be received. Peace,
then, and quiet. Let there not be one particle
of riot, tumut or violence.
This is the crisis in which it will be shown
whether the people of Ireland will obey me or
not. Any person who violates the law, or is
guilty Of any violence, insult or injury to person
or property, violates my command and shows
himself an enemy to me, and bitter enemy to
Ireland.
The people Of 1reland--thc sober, steady,
honest, religious people Of Ireland--have hitherto
obeyed my commands and kept quiet. Let every
man stay at home. Let the women and children
stay at home. Do not crowd the streets, and in
particular let no man approach the presincts Of
the Four Courts.
Now, people Of Dublin, and of Ireland gener.
ally, shall know, and the world will know,
whether you love and respect me or not. Show
your love and regard for me, BY your obedience
TO the law-your peaceable conduct, and the to-
tai avoidance of any riot or violence.
PEACE, ORDER, QUIET, TRANQUILITY.
Preserve the peace, and the Repeal cause will
necessarily be triumphant. Peace anG qiet ask
for in my name, ard as you regard me. Peace
and quiet ask for in my name. and as you re-
gard me. Peace and quiet ask for in the name
of Ireland, and as you love your native land..-
Observation-Disclosures. call for under the SOL
emn sanction Of religion. ] conjure you to OBJ
serve quiet, and ask it in the adorable name
of the everything God.
Crafty me aud your friends by your being
quiet and peaceabie.
The enemies Of Ireland would be delighted a
your violating the peace, Or being guilty cfany
disorder.
Disappoint them--gratify and delight BY
peace, order and quiet.
Your faithful friend,
DANIEL O'CONNELL.
