the o'DOVOGuIE ON TIE AMNI,s-
CAN VAR.

E0r sCn5e time q controversy has been GAINED
on In tie columns Of The D,.5.in Ids.'nan on the
American war. 1t WAS began by letter from
Gen. Moaghor, warmly defending the oahso Of
tie Union, and expressing the hope tIat our
war would train en- Irish army for the dehyer-
anco Of Ireland frolD British rule. Gen. 1eeghor
was replied to By hIr. Smith O'Brien, yho bit
terly condemns Gen. Mesgher for the part lie Is
taking in erdcayoring TO maintain ths integrity
Of this Ropublie, and advising Irishmen at home
and abroad TO abstain from supporting the Gauss
of tho Union. Tho last number of The Dublin
Nation contains reply to Smith O'Brien from
Tho O'Doncghuc, who seems to 10 anxious that
the American people may not look upon The sentl'
ments of Smith O'Brien as the sentiments Of tie
Irish people. He says, in tho course OF long
letter:
