GEN. BouRKE's LECTURE.-Gen. Thomas F.
Bourke, well known by his prominence in Fe-
nianisn and as one Of those confined in an En-
glsh prison two or three years ago, delivered the
fourth lecture in the course of the United Irish
societies, last evening.
Previous to his coming upon the platform,
the audience was treated to concert, in which
the excellent vocal powers of Mrs. p. H. Carroll,
Miss Lizzie McKenna, Maurice Power and NJ.
f. Clare were brought out to good advantage in
the Irish pieces rendered An accompaniment
TO both the quartet and solo singing was per-
formed on the piano ly Mrs Nora Ready.
The lecture was so much like many others in
which great encouragement is offered to an Irish
audience that in a short time the Green Isle will
be made iudependentand free from English rulc
that a report OF it is hardly necessary. We will
say for him. however, that he talked interest
iugly about llish matters and prospects, and
urged the necessity Of organization. He be.
licved the present attempt to bring about the
Irish home rule measure would in the end result
in the making Of separate independent exist
ence for Ireland; for if the English parliament
refuses to allow this small claim of right, the
sndbbing of Ireland will provoke an opening of
the fight which will resut-as did the American
voluton-in throwing off the English yoke.
The speaker saw a plain analogy between the
two struggles aud believed that Ireland has suf.
ficicnt means and materials to accomplish the
desired object without seeking help from other
nations. He praised the strong national
characteristics of the Irish, but deplored
the apathy of Irishmen in this coun.
try who cannot be made to recognize
the opportunities of the day. The Fenian move
ment has failed, he said, and yet not wholly
failed, for it has made England to feel that in
ireland there is power which cannot be over
looked. lie was glad the prince of Wales didn't
die, for he said his cause could not afford to
lose so bad prince at this time; and proceeded
to a description Of the royal visit to Ireland a
few months ago. He gathered encouragement
by glance at the progress made by the Irlsh in
this country in the last twenty years.
