Tne Mteljgencer OF the Goth inst. con-
taias the following from Bellaire:
The resolutions, pretended by the
REGISTER 10 have been gotten up by an
Irish meeting at the City Hall, denounc'
ing Morrison and Nolan, the Irish ora
tors, are a fraud. Their authors were
no more Irish than | am.

Your reporter was present at the
meeting OF lrishmen, when the resolu-
lions concerning Morrison and Nolan
were drawn up and accepted by the
.arye number OF Irish voters, collected
together at the City Hail, without a dis
scEting vote. We do not want any dis
grace or misfortune to befall the Irish
men Of this place, but it will be necessary
for them to acknowledge X. Z. +. as one
| Of their c~ountrymcn. Hard as it may

Notwithstanding the beautiful even
ing, the crowd that assembled at the
"Sand Lot on Tuesday evening to hear
the Irishmen, Morrison and Nolan, was
so insignificant that they adjourned to
the City Hall. BY actual count the
torches in the grand procession num-
bcTcd but 81.
As usual on such great occasions, Col.
pcOrman called the meeting TO order, j.
5. Smith Was chosen chairman, and be-
came 50 interested in his speech on
resolutions that he nearly forgot 10
Introduce Mr.. Nolan, who spoH" for
about fifteen minutes. His speech was
on "rCsOluiions' also, bUt he made
statemrn; which it would be wrong to
| pass b.. Nr. Nolan said: "No more
! disgraca(nl thing can be- sad Of a q
now q days than that he iSan lrishman,
n Catholic and Il democrat" After
Nolal had finished his little say, the
! great Morrison presented himself. He
spoke tor about Two hours, his speech
/ being cun.iIri principally 20 'rrsoin-

of age. This did not hang together
very we'll and his audience began to sus-
rect him.
Ills speech contained no arguments
but Vas simply a TRADE oil abuse against

Your reporter succeeded Yesterday in
. obtaining positive proof that IT,, man
Morrison, vino talked in sIch a touch
, ing manner of his service in the late war
was never within hearing Of a cannon,
and that he WAS al WORK during the time
az the war i'm Z tan house IN Chicago.
Yet he would stand before an audience
and try t. mislcad them by such false
hoods. His knoWlrGge Of Americas
history, when he stated that th" Repub.
iican I,,rly was 10. formed until 1851,
showed any intelligent person very
clearly that he had never served in the !
late van. Morrison is a decClver IN
every sense oi the word. lie IS bribcd
by ErpuJlican money 10 make these
speeches, but their filthy luCre" was
worse than 'hrOwn away by bringing
him here. poorman and the balance OF
tHc Republican glng are dlsheartened,
and know that the speeches last night
were a death blow to the Republican
party about here. These men will never
again ho invited to address the Repub-
licanSdUd lr.ShmcH OF I'eilaire.
