on the 9th Sept, the anniversary OF the Liberation
of Mr.. O'Connell and his fellow prisoners. Mr.
Richard O'Gorman, IT., rose one of the juven
lie orators alluded TO by Mr.. O'Connel, TO rope
an unjust and most undeserved accusation, and
clear his character from foul stain. (Cheers.)-
He complained that he and his friends had been
denounced liars and traitors to the Irish
cause; and most especially thai they had
heard nothing of the character
OF Mr.. O'Connelps letter until il was read IN
public. If it were true, as stated by the 1idif,
that Mr.. O'Connell had said that all that ireland
wanted was a real union with England, then Mr.
O'Connell was no fit leader for that ASSOCIATION
or the people of Ireland; and yet, Tor denying
that II was true, he and his friends had been
charged by Mr. O'Connell with attempting to
create dissensions in the association Mr.. L. r.
Meagher, Mr.. Mitchell, and Mr.. Doheney spoke
IN the same strain. Mr.. OMahoney deprecated
the course OF the Young lrelanders one most
detrimental to the cause. Mr.. O'Reiy alluded
the articles in the Dublin Nation conveying
most unfounded insinuatons against Mr.. O'Con-
nell. Captain Frederick deprecated dissension,
and the matter was ultimately arranged for the
time by declaration on the part of Mr.. Doheny
and his friends that the imputauon of treachery
did not apply to any member of the association.
Shortly afterwards, Alderman Delahunty handed

which Mr.. Mitchell rose and asked, "Who are

The prosecution instituted by the government
against the Dublin Nation newspaper, for the

SUPPLY OF INDIAN MEAL AT CoRK.-Such is and
has been the extensive demand for this article
throughout the country, since the price was fixed
at E2O per ton, that there has been issued from
the government depot at the Lee Mills, in Cork,
one thousand tons per week to the several COM
mittees who receive supplies; that is, ten thou
sand pounds worth of Indian meal per week is
issued from Cork alone, to make up the deficiency
caused by the failure in last years potatoe crop,
independently of the amount sold by importers,

opportunity at present of ascertainng, but which,
we are assured, must be very considerable.
