/ M. Editor;--Thcrc seems 30 be som,
trouble aud excitement existing In that
part of the world which is now under hel
Royal MWcsty's Pcttlcoat Government. Tn,
The tyrant trcmblcs, and the watch-worl
In the Fenian mouths should be. Give m,
Liberty or give me Death" The whole
world will curse the name of AN lrlshmai
If the present opportunity is allowed q
pass by without NJ least makingn formlda-
bic demonstration against that Internal
John Bull Government.
God knows it would be much better that
nearly all the sons of that beautiful emerald
gem of the sea should he laid low beneath
the surface of the earth, never to he looked
upon by human eyes again, than To live In
misery, starvation and wrctchcdncss, dur
Ing the course of their natural lives. If |
could only he heard by all lrshmcn now
living on the face of this habnbe globe.
my supplicatlon and prayer, before them
would be tn rallysat once, and without de-
lay, 10 the rescue of poor down troddcn
Ireland, and by one united effort, drug her
by mniu force NOM the jaws of the infiirl-
ated British Lion, which always thirsted
for her blood and the blood of her sons and
fair daughters. IL the Irishmen let the
present opportunity pass without making u
desperate struggle, the name of ireland and
lrishmen Will he mentioned by young and
old rs objects of scorn and derision, what
have the Irish In Ireland TO lose by their
struggle for Independence. If the sea-
ports of that country be demolished by
British shells, and nothing Iefl but the
smouldering ruins, will 1t effect the starry
ing people who are now putting their
shoulders TO the wheel IN order To gain
their emancipation and freedom, no II can
not.
The miserable absentee landlords. who,
for centuries, have lavished and squandcred
all the best productions OF that beautiful,
but alas unfortunate Island, alone will
suffer; and IL ever a base and heartlcss
band of tyrants deserved punishment, they
do; and confidently hope they will have
1t to their hearts content. Life Is the only
treasure to be sacrificed by the poor Irish
man. without IL he Is out of trouble; with
IL, under the CALLING yoke OF British
slavery, he Is worse than the poor peniten-
tiary convict as the latter looks for free
dom one day, but the former never. The
Irish have been looked upon by those of
other countries as a rare and strange class
of community, hated aud dcspised for their
peculiar procliyitics; but who, let me ask,
is TO blameg The question Is easily solved
without protection, rights, privileges,
schools, or even the common necessarles of
life, how could or can they be otherwisal Z
Anefe Is an omnlScicnt and all-pOWertul
God, who will yet lend his mighty arm 10
crush the iiends who have'chained his obe-
dent children 10 thrnldom for centuries.
Yes, Canada and England have good reason
20 trcmble. The day of retri6utlon IL at
hand, and may God strengthen the Irish
arm, and nerve the Irish heart, so that Il |
can be meted out plentifully, and without
the least particle OF remorse.
Let every Irlshmsn In America, promise
Ill Il at,
adopted country, their lives, fortunes, and |
sacred honors In the noble cause Of Ire- |
lands Independence. Let the world know, |
that through the instrumcntality of her de- |
voted sons, time win come when she and |
her children will not be- caricatured ON the |
stage aud elsewhere, by stragglers who are |
lost 10 that fine sense ofpurlty and religion,
which the Irish men aud women can |
proudly boast Of. Let us gain our lnde-
pendence, educate our children, and minglc |
with Others Of less natural abilities, In the
halls of Congress and elsewhere. We will
hen reap the blessings which God has In
store for those who deserve 20 be free.
