which might, with the utmost propriety,
be entertained by the Corporation whie
the Rev. Prof. Galbraith applied himself
what is meant by q Federal Union with
England, touching, at the same time, IN a
learned and argumentative manner, on al
most every other branch OF the snpJcct.
After DIR. Galbraith had concluded his ad-
dress, the meeting of the Corporation was
adjourned till the following Tuesday, IN
order that the members might have time to
consider the great subject 80 ably brought
before them.
ITS ADOPTION.
+ On Thursday, the Goth, the Corporation
made answer to the appeal that had oeen
addressed to them by the delegates of the
Home Government Association. 1t was
such an answer as the country expected OF
them-an answer worthy of Themselves ana
of the capital city Of ireland. Its terms,
which we here quote, will be crafty ing to
every patriot heart:
Reso1red-That, having heard the addresses
of the Home Rule Association Deputies at the
Bar, this Council, conscious OF the magnitude
of the question discussed therein, and mindini
of the traditions and records Of this Civlc AS
sembly on the subject of Irish Legislative IN
dependence do now solemnly and publicly re-
new our vows of fidelity to that great cause !;
| and pledge ourselves to sustain, by every le-
Commenced for constitutionally adjusting the
| Irish National Question on the basis OF
| Federal arrangement between Ireland and
Great Britain.
A resolution which would postpone the
consideration of this question for six
| months was proposed by Alderman Nc
Swiney, but it found no seconder, and that
| which we have quoted was carried unanl-
mously. We congratulate the Corporation
| of Dublin ON this result; we congratulate
~ AncrN rnfr nFN O n
the people of Ireland. May it be, as we
believe it is, ahappy augury for the speedy
attainment of the national desire-a Native
Parliament for Ireland.-Nation.
THE MONAGHAN ELECTION - DEFEAT OF
ISAAC BUTT:
The nomination of candidates took place
on Monday, July i7t4. ihree gen1a e.iHa,
John McMahon, an opponent of Home Rule,
VITO said in his address that there was not
a Protestant in the north OF ireland VINO
would not draw his sword to- prevent a
repeal of the Union and Isaac Butt, the
Home Rule candidate. The courthouse
being packed with the friends and adhcr-
ents of Mr.. Leslie, the show of hands was
declared to be in his favor, whereupon q
noll was demanded for Mr.. Butt, which
took place on the following Thursday, re-
, sulting in his defeat by about IOO votes
, | The Dublin FREEMAN says ho S"SSSS
of Mr.. Leslie IN Monaghan betokens no de.
feat for the cause of nationality. If thai
. gentleman were q much ADLER man than ht
, ia. he could not retard the DETERMINATION
: of the Irish people to regain their leglsia
. tive independence. While we grieve TO
+ the result, we can hardly consider II
: altopether unforeseen. Victory was neve
+ certain. A Liberal never yet sat for Mona
= a6an = and then Mr.. Butts candidatur
n was wholly uninfuenced except at the las
: moment, by his own personal power an
o influence. He was proposed without hl
:: knowledge; no organization was prepare
;. for his success lie never addressed tn
: electors, and his absence, due altogether
~ his ignorance of the situation, led many
believe that he was not in the field. III
:" deed, the truth is, Mr.. Butt accepted re
= spensibility forced upon him by enthusiast
~ tic admirers, and which at the nrst blus
;, he himself declined to assume. In pre-
4 ence of these facts, it were foolish to col
a. slider his ill success as failure, ana ait
m gether unwarrantable to suppose that eith
- lie or his principles stand whit less sigu
n ticantly in Ireland than heretofore.
