THE TALK OF THE D4I.

Speaking of the recent incendiary speech OF
Mayor DAILY of Limerick. in which he suggested
the burning of London by Irishrnen, THE Port
land Oregonian' says: The best proof that Ire
land Is land OF considerable political freedom u
the fact that a entertaining ana avowihs
these sentiment. could be elected 70 a dignihed
Office, ana feels perfectly safe to utter reoelious
talk and avow reasonable intentions in language
that would cause his arrest in any other country
save Great Britain as a political incendiary and
seditionist The Mayor of leading city IN the
United States who went abroad and proclaimed
himself rebel in intent. who would be rebel in
fact the first opportunity. would not find any
political friends his return and would be treated
with marked contempt and suspicion the rest OF
his days by Of all parties. But this porten-
toUs speech by this Irish Invincible in New-York
City will only contribute to the gayety Of the
intelligent population Of the United Kingdom, who
will only laugh at 1t as the familiar voice OF the
oldtime cheerful Irish idiot full of sound and fury
signifying nothing. The English rulers OF Ireland
hold this type of Irish agtators neither in fear nor
in respect"
