THOs. FRANCIS MEAGHER,

This gentleman lately delivered in New
York lecture, spirited sketch of which We
find in the Express. The subject was Austria
lia, and il was treated in a manner which must
have been intensely interesting. He commenc-
cd with the first assumption Of possession by
Capt. Cook. and brought down the history Of
the settlement! to the present day. lie dwelt
with great severity upon the exactons, first of
the East India Company, and afterwards ofthe
government Of Great Britain, which derives an
enormous revenue from Australia. So far from
protecting it. the hand of Britain appears to
have been always heavy upon the colony. Its
Avor has, indeed, been very like oppression !;
yet. in spite of all, in spite even of its CONT
naance as penal colony, it has fourished be-
yoad precedent. There is deep discomfort ex.
'etng among the colonists, for many reasons,
but principally for that mentioned The con.
'iets are described as monsters stained with
every species OF crime. Wherever they 60
they carry murder, dev astaton, and every other
conceivable crime along with them. In the
epihion OF Mr.. Meagher, the day is not very
Tar distant when this glorious country will I'M
furl the flag of freedom.
La The conclusion of his lecture. Mr.. M. said
mad been expected that he would speak on
another and far moro popular theme. Blu
ne intimaied that the day had not come, and a.
long as his unhappy country continued to b,
todden under foot by the heel of the oppres
sor, he should regard il as a sacred subject, no
" be touched by him. His lecture elieits
great applause.
