The MEETING or rHE IRISH Alliance
One scarcely knows whether TO laugh or weep
at this exhibition, a graphic and faithful account
OF which will be found in our columns to- day.
While IL is painfully tragic, IL Is at the same time
iuesistibly comic. II is humiliating to find an
assembly Of white men conducting themselves
more dIsrepuiably than would a meeting Of ne
groes. Surely there were demagoRses enough
already here to make fools OF a large number Of
our adopted Irish citizens, without any recent inn
portsions Of that genus. II was not sufficient for
these gentlemen to play their fantastic tricks at
home, but they must come here to act their antics,
and endangcr the hives Of females by their violent
proceedings.
As another meeting is about to be held, Of the
same character, we would recommend these fight
ipg gentlemen TO the special attention Of the
Mayor. Heaven knows the scenes IN Tammany
Hall have been bad enough Of late, but this exhi-
bition appears to outstnp them all 1t IL painful to
witness the names Of such patriots a. Mitchell and
Duffy made the wstchwords Of rowdyism, and
banded about in the mouths Of agitators, for their
own selfish purposes.
Independent Of the violence Of the proceedings
on Saturday evening. we consider the introduction
here Of any political movement about Ireland, in
tnc present eate OF hnairt ~ pure numOuk rsitnef
the men who are attempting IL are not sincere, or
they are wiling to make fools Of themselves. II
n rather too soon after the late /" Seveeammon"
affair, to try to &c, up another piece Of Irsh act
ing Tor the political stage. The observations of
Mr.. Dillon, who Is regarded as man Of sense, are
well worthy Of attention. II is not an Irish Al
lance that is wanted, either here or in Ireland but
an Irish "truce"-a truce to humbug, and sgita-
ton, and money getten-a truce to bad passions.
envy and jealousy, and strife and contention among
the Insh people themselves The country wants a
little repose after 90 long a series Of exhaus,lnp
and fevtrish excitements. II those men will take
friendly advice. they will either 60 back again to
Ireland, or learn 10 pursue some decent calling,
and work for living like American citizens, and
as we are glad to hear some Of the other exlles are
doing
We cen inform them that the public are utterly
disguised with their quarrels, and that Il they ex-
pect sny sympathy or support here, they will find
themselves miserabIy disappointed. There will,
Of course, be some sprats thrown cut to catch
salmon, when election times come, but that Is all.

Telexrapaic summary.

The intelhgence which we received last evening
rom our special telegraphic correspondent In
Washington, il very interesting, if not important
II will be seen by our despatch, that a document
has been discovered, tending TO show that while
the cabinet OF Gen Ia, lor could assert with some
truth, perhaps, that T. Butler King received no in
structions from them, to urge the people of Cali
fornia to form government, and demand admls
sion into the Union as State, in the manner in
which they have done, secret agents may have
been at work accomplishing that end. II such
document be in existence, it is of the highest i'm
portsnce at this particular juncture, and we are
sure that il will be called for at early day, the
Southern members will be deslrous of knowing eve
rything connected with the movements of the
cabinet in tina quarter. Where there is so much
smoke, as there has been In this case, there must
be some fire, and that Ere has not yet been disco
vered.
AS for the caucus of the New York delegation,
preparatory to general whig caucus on the sla-
very question, 1t may amount TO something or 1t
may not. We very much fear that the slavery
question, thanks TO William H. Seward, and other
fanatics Of the North of both parties, lies be-
yond party lines, and cannot be settled except
on principles Of compromise, not between
wings and democrats, but between the re-
presentatives of both sections of the country
irrespective Of party. Properly speaking, the
slavery question, although II may be made test
in certain localltes-in the South as we'll as in the
North-is not a party question. 1t is dangerous
sectional question, and never be settled salts
factorly by wings alone, or by democrats alone !;
but by both combined, representing both sections
of the country. Some decision of moment may
be arrived at in wing caucus. in reference to the
cabinet; for 1t is generally believed by the repre-
sentatlves OF that party in Congress, as well as by
the country at large, that it should be dissolved as
soon as possible, and better men installed-men
who would carry with them some moral influence
and weight.
The details Of our telegraphic intelligence will
be found below.

Fort Of the Board Of Health, upon which we offered
some comments at the time il was issued. Ac-

FALLS or Sr. ANTHoNY.-The Lam
ar'inc, on her last trip to the Upper
Mississippi, went fully as high as St.
Anthony, being just three miles nearer
the Fountain-head ofthe Father of Wa
tiers Il an any steamer had gone before.
The citizens Of St. Paul and its VIC
unity had offered premium of 5000 to
the first steamer that would reach
SteeI's Point, bend situated at the
first ledge of rocks on ascending to the
Falls. The stage of the water beng
favorable, Capt. Marsh determined TO
make the attempt with the Lamartine.
The beauty and fashion Of ST. Paul
were accordingly taken aboard, and
with colors flying and drums beating,
the steamer was headed towards the
Falls. Despite strong current which,
that near the Falls, rushes in a perfect
torrent, SteePs Point was reached with
out very much difficulty, and the boat
progressed until she could barely hold
up-not at all advancing against the
current. Here hawser was made fast
to a ledge of rocks, and she was cord
elcd up one or two lengths more
She thus passed the point for which
the premium had been offered b. a
quarter or half mile, ascending near
or to St. Anttony's falls, than any
steamer, barge or canoe. The party
returned to st. Paul highly delighted
with their exploration trip. Capt.
Marsh, we learn, was paid the $500
punctualIy, according to contract. "
