O'COnneu In Parliament,

The Dublin journals speak in terms of strong indigna
ton OF the omission, in Parliament OF any demonsra-
tons of respect upon the of the death OF
the Liberator. The Speaker, it appears, duly and
formally apprlsed of the event, yet the subject was not
alluded to in the House Even when the writ was
moved for the election of member in his place,
the same unusual and unaccountable silence pre-
served. The dublin Freemans Journal" of June 10,
has the following strong remarks upon the subject
eve cannot but regard this both individual and
national insult 1t has been the long-esabshed custom of
the House, the death of eminent representative to
accompany the motion for the writ with tribute of respect
Tor his services and regret for his decease The journals
of the House abound with such demonstrations. Burke,
Pitt, Fox, Windham, Wberforce, Gratan, and host of
others less conspicuous have had their virtues and services
duly recorded Friends and foes alike forth for the
grave while swes the heart of friendship exubeant
praise disarm hostility of all its bitterness Such compli
graceful in the living, well generous the
dead.
Had fate exhausted the hourglass of the Duke what
praises would have been exhausted his memory Or of
Lord John Russehow his services to civil and religious
freedom would have been COMMUNICATED! Or of Sir Rob-
ert Peel-even the gall of Mr. DIsae would have been
metamophosed into panegyrical honey Or Richard Cob
demand the freeaders would be all euogy and lanena-
ton But Daniel OConnel passes away-and there is
to do reverence to his memory
"The great chieftan, whose will live when the
generous multitude of Parliament will be reegated
immortal obscurity, needed such hypocrtical tribute
He is as much above them in fame they below him
in services rendered to all mankind.
Perhaps he had right calculate the generosity
of orysm, against which he warred for forty years. finally
uampling under foot But surely refomers of the
House of Commons with Lord John Russell their head
should not suffer the opportunity pass without recording
their of the great services of the greatest feomcr Of
the age.
&c 1t weak and unmanly act-a ptful submission
to that black deposit of nveterae hate which, notwh-
standing all the pretensons and professions lies deep in
the English heart towards O'Connel and his country.
Color it they may, the enity is there and the House
OF Commons only reflected the public opinion of the nation
in its grim and ungracous silence. We well know how to
interpret this breach of customary respect the person of
departed leader How little does the insult detract
from his wohhow clearly does it determine the spirit of
the British Parliament and the British nation Nothing is
cheaper than words but these wanting
the worth of departed greatness when, for the
first time since his death, the of OConnel was heard
in the House of Commons All parties agreed hush
that which imperishably interviewer with the his
tory of freedom and progress, and will live forever in the
hearts and memories of men,"

CITY OF WASHINGTON.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT, JULY z, ls47.


Returned to Washington this evenings northern cars,
after fortnights absence He accompanied by
MIR. Clifford, the Attorney General Mr.. Buchanan,
the Secretary of State, remained to-day in Philadelphia,
and will return TO Washington tomorrow.
No President could have performed long journey,
and seen so much of his country in so short time
because OF the present immense facilities afforded to
travelling by steamboats, and railroad cars We do not
recoec that any other has travelled far to the north
The limit of his journey was the town of Augusta,
the seat of government of the State of Maine
He also visited Gardiner, where is the residence
of, ex-senator Evans; and nowhere did the Pres
ident meet with more cordial reception He spent
the last Sabbath in the town of Portland which he
left early on Monday morning and, that day, he
travelled than 800 mies-beng the day, too, on
which the anniversary of American independence was
generally celebrates and it being expected that he
would traverse that route, he met on his way thou
sands of his fellow citizens who had collected at
rious popuoas points. Platforms had been erect;
ed on the line, from which he received and re-
turned various addressesas many, perhaps, as ten
eleven. On that day, he passed through many towns
among them were Saco, Portsmouth, (where he dined,)
Salem, Lynn, Boston, &C., &c.
On Tuesday morning. he arrived in the city of New
York, and on the evening at Philadelphia. Thus,
such the facilities of transportation, he has travelled
from Portland TO Washington between Monday morning
and Wednesday evening.
We are happy to say that the President returns in
good health and excellent spirits improved by the
parave relaxation he has enjoyed and exhausted by
the fagues he has undergone He returns, too, delight
ed with the cordial reception he has everywhere enjoyed,
and with the liberal spirit of free people, and with the
brilliant signs OF the prosperity which he has everywhere
witnessed-anxous, and, have doubt better quail
ied to dedicate his time, during the remainder OF his
administration, to the discharge of the duties of the Of
fee, which has been SO highly honored in him, and to
the good of country which calls forth all his gratitude
and all his attachment
