At the meeting OF the Dublin Corpo-
ration, ON Nov. 6, in reply to ques-
ton from MIR. Nannctti, it was stated
that the resolution OF the Limerick Cor
poration, expressing sympathy with the
Beers, had been received by the Dublin
town clerk; but, that the locum tenens
for the Lord Mayor, on his own respon-
sibility, and in the exercise OF his dis
cretion, had declined to put it on the
agenda paper for consideration. And
the Lord Mayors representative stuck
to his decision, and refused to receive
any resolutions expressing sympathy
with the South African Republicans,
which, he said, would conflict with the
loyal and constitutional stand taken by
the Lord Mayor previous to his depar-
turc on his American tour.
