The adjourned meeting Of the William
O'Brien Branch OF the Irish National
League Of America held Sunday after

by sympathizers with the Irish cause.
The reports OF the collectors showed
that 1855 bad been guaranteed to the
fund now being raised, and there were
several districts still to be heard from.
TO INVITE THEM HERE.
The following resolutions were unani-
mously adopted:

William O'Brien Branch put themselves
in communication with the Irish men,
bers of Parliament and invite them 10

tion TO make suitable arrangements for

this city.
Under the second of the above resolu-
tions the presidents Of the different go
cieties will nominate five of their men,
bers to serve on the Reception Commit

ing.

of course, not yet known, but it Is pro-
bable that a mass-meeting will be held,
at which addresses will be delivered, and

were made here. The leading provincial
