God bless the generous people who di
this work. There is an uuquenchab,
soul OF honor and courage in our poor ne
BILE people, more precious as a nationt
possession than mines aud money bags
Their instructive horror OF venal renegade
their intolerance of stag" though hi
infamy be covered with orders and glide
with titles, is beautiful aud chivarous
This Is the very instinct which, with fair

gave the world its most heroic memories

And SO, poor Knight of the rueful coun

from Newgate. Oh, Jupiter, how the bile
will overflow in the angry breast of Cla.
rendon! How the pettiiogger will gnasli
his impotent teeth. Keep out of his reach
as you prize your knighthool, lest he dis
honor you--if such an operation be possi.

ghost was not a spectacle of more terror
to his murderer, than my presence there to
your MASTER and yet, without even
show OF resistance you fly, aud leave the
door wide open for me. Clarendon should
chop off your knightly spurs for so das-
tardly an act.
And now, prepare to pay the penalty Of
nnveracity. Your f3lsehood aud exagge-
ration will make you fall thousand times
more humiliating. Where can you show
your face without shame You aud all
your connections proclaimed, wherever.
you found an audience, that your success
was beyond all controversy. In the Re.
orm Club of London, In the Stephens.

n how many Irish homes will your fight
rom Ross excite thrill of pleasure aud
riumph. How many faces will look
sladder for it tomorrow When all the
,onderous routine Of your life in the Cas-
le Yard is forgotten, except among jeer-

light will be theme of pride and laugh
