repudiated by that body.
This is an ndgnity which we do not think MIR.
Richie will submit to; but if he do, he may con-
sole himself that he is not the first who has had

MKErns FOR THE RsLxv or IarLAsp.-Our

MEETNe FOR THE RyLIKr or lRRLAND.-Our
readers will see that there is u call advertised IN
our columns, for public meeting this evening at
the Tabernacle, TO promote measures for the re-
lief OF the starving population of Ireland 1t will
also be perceived that this call is signed by very
large number of our respectable, influential, and
wealthy citizens
We look forward to this meeting with the as.
surance that the result will not only be highly
beneficial to the furnishing poor Of Ireland, but
that it will vndcate the character of New York,
by testfyng our commisseration for our brethren
who are suffering under the scourge oil famine.
This is the first great and united movement
that has been made in this city. There was, to be
sure, a subscription raised and public meeting
held here some time since ; but many of our re-
pectable citizens did not like the way IN which it
was set on foot and therefore refused to take any
part in it, These waited until the present, and
now they come forward and say that they are d =
sirous of using their influence, and solicit their
fellow. citizens to join them in a movement that
will be free of any suspicion OF its being designed
for political purposes, and for the sole purpose of
relieving the distresssd-a movement in which
men of all parties and creeds can participate
one, in fact, that will be worthy of the empire
city of the empire State.
1t is really full time that New York did some
thing worthy of her in this matter. We publish
ed an article in yesterdays paper, showing, that
in many cities and towns in the country, large
amounts Of money and food had been raised, and
sent to Ireland; and surely New York should not
be backward in the good work.
We invite our citizens to attend the meeting at
the Tabernacle, this evening, and by their libe-
rality and in fluence, to do their utmost towards
raising handsome contribution for the poor
Irish.
We shall give full report of its proceedings
in to-morrow's Herald.
