THE ARCHBISHOP . OF TUAMA paragraph went the round of the papers , si

short time since, t« the effect that Dr. BlacHaleso far y ielded obedience to the Act of Parliament ,which has disgraced the present session, and castno lustre on the reign ot the Soverign, as tochange the form under which -certain funds werelodged to his" credit in the hanks—in fact ,that , from " •{•John, Archbishop of Tuam ," he de-cended to plain and unpretending " -)-John Mac-Hale." Great were the chucklings at this ;which was looked upon as a pal pable exhibitionof the white feather. Whether there was anytruth in the Story, we have no means of ascertain-ing, nor is ft importan t to know ; for were it so ,we shouIJ-'-'ook on it as a purely precautionarymeasure, not for his own protection , hut for thepreservation of interests other than his o-?n. Butwe fel t convinced that Dr. MsicHalc was not theman to be moved from any po sition which he haderer taken up in the face . of the world. Indeed ,it would be a cause of mortification to the greaterportion of the Catholic bod y if the "Lion of theFold of Judah" exhibited the slightest manifesta-tion of fear or weakness at a moment when thewrong ful aggression made on their liberties , by abase and dishonest party,' calhd on every man topresent a bold r.nd determine d front to the enemy,Happ ily, the belief in the firmness of Dr. Mac-Hale is full y justi fied by the result. In a letterwhich appear s elsewhere—the first public docu-ment written by him since the passing of the netagainst titles—lie signs himself, ns of yore , -[John ,Archbishop of Tuam." Were the law more strin-gent than it is, and nnre un suitcd to tho age inwhich we live , it would be equall y disregarded T)yone who , more than any member of the IrishHierarch y, gathers round him the affectionate re-gards of the Catholics of this country—that is,of all those whose policy has not been thwarted byhis consistency to what he held and believed tobe ri ght , and who have no particular interest in" Standing well with the Government ."

Is this stgnalure a violation of the Titles Act ?It is , certainl y, an open disregard of it ; and if adisregard be a violation , it is a violation. Cer-laiainl y, it is an assumpti on of a title , but a ri ght-ful , lawful , truthfu l assumf/im of a ti t le —theAssum ption of a title which be longs to ])r. Mac-Hale , as much as thnt of Queen of Great Britainand Ireland belongs to the rei gning sovereign. Iffifty thousand laws declared that Dr. MaeHale.was not Archbishop of Tuam , they •••.•oul'.l simp l ydeclare n lie, nnd lie would bo the same personstill. No temporal law can touch his title , whichis purel y sp iritual. - Nor can it mnkc him otherthan he is , the Catholic Archbishop of Tuam. Inadopting tl .e form used by the ''relates of the Es-tablished Church , Dr. Macllale does not intendthat any human being should suppose that he de-sires to pass off as a Protestant Bishop : liemerel y desires to show the wor ld that lie is theArchbishop who exercises spiritual authority overand governs the Catholic faithful of n. great pro -vince of a Catholic country. — Co-k Examiner,

C-lTHOLIC UNIVERSITY— THE CARDI-NAL S APPROBATION 4

Having persued with : sincere interest the" Address of the Committee appointed by theSynod of Thurles for founding a Catholic Uni-versity in Ireland ,1' to the Catholic clergy andlaity in England , dated the Feast of St. James,of this yenr :

We hereby warmly recommend it to the con-sideration of tho^e to whom it is directed ,assured that its nwn earnest and glowing wordswill plead more powerfu ll y th.-in any that wecan write. The noble and trul y Catholic sym-path y which Ireland has shown with our trialsclaims from every English Catholic a corres-ponding feeling : and now esperidl y th \t wemay say of the children o f the church , and the irpastors , in both islands , " cadem fides ct passiovere fecit esse germanos. " whatever is done inIreland , to protect tho Faith , and secure a purereli gious education , must be considered as a. com-mon work , performed for our common good. Inthis sentiment of the Address we heartil y agree ;and though multi plied are our wants at home,we trust that the charity and generosity of Eng-lish Catholics will not fall below the high esti-mate which thd Irish prelates have lormsd ofthem.

While thus we venture to address o-ir senti-ments on this subject to all our Catholic bre -thren in England, we further authorise collec-tions to be made h all yilaos within tho limitsof our spiritual juris diction , among the Faithfulby the Rev.

MISS CATHERINE HAYESWe are excusabl y anxious about Catherine

Hayes' success here. She is an Irish girl , good ,innocent , pure , and virtuous. She loves andrespe cts her mother with a fond devotion whichgives grace and dignity to her superb qualifications .She loves her poor down-trodd en Native Land ;the glories she has acquired in the realms of songarc the more valued because they are intermin-gled anc associated with its name and history .She will bo received here with an enthusiasmwhich no gilded pageant of monarchic sp lendoi orcourt magnificence can equal ; which no aristo-cratical blandishments or fashionable palaver canapproach : She will be received by the Americandemocracy—wealth y, learned, professional , andoperati ve—as a child of gen ius and adopted ns anornament and a gem of the nubility of nature.She will be received by her countrymen with awild ' warmth which no ru le but the heartcan limit . Nor do we desire to nurh this temper.When " she sings the wild songs of her own na-tive plains ," and gives life to Moore 's gushingpoetry with a power , a pathos, nnd a sympath ywhich his songs never knew before , how can wewish to suppress the houn ding joy which thelover of his old home must feel when he listens tothe •' Swan of Erin 's" mag ical vocaliz ation. Shewill be received by the Press with a unanimouscheer which will be re-ech oed from the Atlantic tothe Pacific borders , nnd along the interminablehills and vales of this mighty continent wherevera newspaper is prin ted. For the American Pressno matter how it may differ about religion andpolitics , it is ever sure to give a hospitable wel-come to the stranger , and an enthusiastic recep-tion to the child of talent nnd genius. v

THE WHIG MOLES A GAIN.The faction are following up the ir under ground

work , to undermine Catholicity, and disp laceand disable every Parliamentary liberal who willnot uphold their basc-horti schemes. Havin gbroug ht •' back stairs" influence to bear on thefather of the Karl of Aruridcl , they exercise thosame disreputable nrt on th .i father of Lnr.lCasllereag h, and place the Marquis of London-derry under tlie sway of thnt Co -rt authority,which , improperl y and illeg itimatel y used as itseems to be, so lew of the Eng lish or the IrishAristoc racy, appear willing or able to disregardor disown. The vr -ry r.-Wives of the Queen , ifCatholic , nre not permitted to approach her. Arelative , the l'rincc llohenloe , now in London ,is forbidden for that reason , und the time , wepresume, is about to come upon us whento be a Catholic wil l subjuct every one to ex-elusion from offi es, whilst Whtss are inpower, and to violence and insult when or whereeither dare bo applied. The Catholics of Irelandshould b? prepared.

We liavu it from excellent authority that LordCast 'ereagh is compelled to retire from the re-pre sentation of the County of Down, in favourof a Mr. Stewart , of Aids , the nominee of LordLondond erry, and , as a matter of course, a Wh gof the " right sort." Thus , not alone betweennations , and classe*, and creeds do the infamousWhi gs spread devilish discord , but introduce itinto the bosoms of tho most respectab le families ,and involve fathers nnd sons, brothers and rela-tives in hat ful disunion. Accursed be thyfaction who ha"e ori ginated this strife .

Of the Election in Down we are not withouthope that the issue will be different from thatVane Londond - j rry antici pates. The tennantfarmers will not suffer the Garrontower appoin-tee to b? thrust upon them. This would be asignal opp ortunity for the re-adoption of SharnmnCrawford by a constituency of his countrymen ;and in no part of Ireland could the restorationbe effected more appropriat el y than in a c ountyruled by two such unpopular potentates as LordVane Londonderry and the Marquis of Down-shirc — Munster News.

The bli ght has made tremendous work herethis week ,and if Divino Providen ce dues not , insome mensnre;, impeade the withering strokes ofits felling ham!, I fear our unf ortunate coun-try will be imnterged deeper this year in miserythiin ever. The wheat crop is not considered HSa half-crop. RIHI the manule and turni p cropsnre melancholy exhibitions . There is almost no-enerul failure in all kinds of crops for the lastsix years in this country, and Ireland hithertofamous for her agricultural produce can scarcelybeViid in future , to be an agricultura l country.But if Irelan d never reared a potato , or a singlegrain of corn , she has many and different othernatura l resources which would maintain threel mes the num her of her popula tion in a de-gree of saperior comfort and independence. Herpour ing streams and .icble rivers are capable ofturning the machinery of the world.

CATHOLj C DEFEN CE ASSOCIATION—G R E A T A f i C R K C r A T E MEETING.

We have endeavoured to lay a lengthy reportof the impor tant proceedii ;g of the " 19th" be-fore our readers , by which they will perceive thatCathoiic Ireland came forward in its tens of thou-sands , and in its talen t and its mi ght—the hier-arch y, the priesthood , the titled and the parlia-mentary representa tives of the people were there— to make the first impression upon the brazenbulwarks of reli gious intollcrence ; and which ,will prove effectual in lending the way to thelotal demolition of the entire fabric. THE CA-THOLIC 1)K|.-K\T CK ASSOCIATION is nowin existence , and under the auspiemus circum-.<ta: ices which it has been ushered into life andMtio i i not a shadow cf doubt is left o:i the minds•it ' the millions that the obj ects for which it hashecn railed furiii wii i he speedil y accomplished.;-ol -conlidonro has taken the lead of t imidity ;:ind the result is dearly njparent that the desp i-cable leg islators of the present time will have to¦ vtr.u t and apolog ise for the contiimcl y am] in -.-.sih which ii .ey l;ave latel y offered to the Catho-iic w orld ; public op ini on will effect this , andprove to them at the same time , that they shouldhave ever made it their rule and guide if theywished to preser ve the nation from internal dis-scmions. Yes , the pi riod has passed , thankProvidence , when the peop le were obli ged toiiot.i lce themselves to the fastnesses of their:i»oiii it::ins , to their caves and their valleys , toprotect their lives from the legalised assassinsa-hii [nowled at ni o'ht throug h their villages—toprotect their daug hters from H fate still more hor-rible and revoltin g . Thank Providence thoseunci sic gone by when all these tortu res were;.ii1icicd up;n the unoffending Catholic , because

of his reli gion , and of th.i t alone ; anc in their> toad we have got bli ghter days , over which , if a> lou.l may pass for the moment , genial sunshineis certain to follow. Formerl y it vyas useless foiJie peop le to battle against the tyrant hand that

i'j iprcssed them—now ,they can stand up and boldl ymeet flic ioc, and wrest from his paral ysed graspih .cir liberty of conscience and equal and impar-

ial rights of citizenshi p.The " \ I .VI :TI:K .VTII " will be remembered as the

greatest day that Ireland ever saw ; for up on ita society has been inaugurated , ;'.nd a movementcommenced which will shake the portals of thei inp ire to a thousand fragments by the force of itsI eacefu l but powerfu l assaults should the brand ofdegredati pn and persecu tion not bo' wi ped fromthe s ta tute boqk , vhich at present disgraces hu-m anity. Whpre the clergy may lead , the peop lewill follow. That h well-known to the pro-pounders of the bcll -bnrn scheme—the abettorsof R LSSI LL . " The laic ty, " says the Freeman," full y comprehend the rnqhves that animate their11 bishops and clerg y in assuming the post of¦'danger. It would be impossible to describe the" outbreak of enthusiasm which greeted fhe ' as-" sumption 1 bf the chair by the Archbishop of'¦ Aima g h , and wa.s repeated with undi t nj nishcd*' intensity when the several speakers alluded to" such a novelty in ag itation as the heads of the' Catholic Church p lacing themselves , all but" unani ii io '.isl y, in the van of a Catholic conft -" deracy, regardless of all danger—even of the" t errible thre .iu of the Times itself , with its'' ' Pro testant parliament ,' its ' Protestant pco-" pic,' and—more dreadfu l s t i l l—its ' Pr otestant" lion , ' with his tail as stiff with rage as that of" the gentle bea .'t over t!:c portal of Nor th um-• berland house !' !

" A Tradesman very justly complains of the coursepursue-1 by the directo rs of this line in carry ing on theiroperati ons throug hout at the greatest possible distancefrom WiiterP inl.

It re-piives no ar-gument to prove what is clear to tho mind of every manin the community : that once tho important trade ofTippcvary is turned by this line from tho old channel ,the :ncrchants of Limerick will make every exert 'wn toroi-iin it ; and we should say, very fairly too. If, for 1:0other reason whatever, we are sin-prised that our Water-ford representatives at the luurd would not sec thisquestion iu the light that it is viewed by others, and notallow themselves to be hum bugged, nor the claims of thelalxmrincclas- .es to bo so shamefull y neglected.

CUTT NG AND T A K I N G AWAY CROPS

(From our Duugnrvaii lorrcspomlenl. iDungarvan , August 18, 1S50.

On the nig ht of the loth instant , there werefrom one hundred and fift y to two liuivircd per-sons assembled on the lauds of Rolicrard , withintwo miles : of this town , and cut down from ten totwelve acres of wheat , the princi pal part of thegrowing crop, and was broug ht on cars and horsesby tlie peasantry, and carefull y stowed in a farmhouscbelon g ing to a person in the nei ghbourhood.It appears the growing crop was the property ofone James Kcane , who paid a certai n sum peracre, to a middle-man of the name of Fl ynn , thathad his title or farm from the land proprietor ,Ar '.hur Maguire Giles , Esq., J.]?., of Coulnagour.He having received information that; tho friendsof Keane wore determined to. have recourse tosuch nocturnal mode of proceedings , immediatel ygave tho earliest intelli gence to the authoritieshere : they j nost promptl y and energeticall y gavedirections to the police under the command of SubInspector Jfeirns , to proceed without delay to theaforesaid p lace , and were on the ground in thecourse of a short time. I understand they coulddo nothi ng , in consequence of no vio lation of thelaw or a breach of tlie peace having been com-mitted. It must be st.-ited , to the credit of Jlr.Maguire Giles , there cannot be a more kind , hu-mane , and indul gent land proprietor than heis. Fl ynn owes him two years ' rent Asto his political op inions , &c, he that as it may, Istate , fearlessl y, that he is a model for other aris -tocratic landlords to imitate.

On the 1-lth ins tant , Brid get Donovancoaxed a child , about seven years old , to Shandi nRoad , and stri pped it. there of all its wearin g ap -parel , and left the innocent chil d wi thout one par-ticle of covering. Tlie child ' s cries and screamsattract ed the notice of some persons convenient ,who at once gave information of the mat te r lo thepolice , and at once found the callous-hearted wo-man in the act of pawning t lie articl es in Mr.Slavery 's office. The police had her conveyed toBride well , and on Saturday she was tried at Pett ySessions , and fined in the sum of £2 lus. andcosts , or three months ' impr isonment with hardlabour. The announcement of the sentence inCourt was hailed with delight bv the spectators.

The Aggregate IWCfetingFrom an early hour on Tuesday morning the

street 9 leading to the Rotundo were throngedwith crowds of the citizens anxious to catcha glimpse of the distinguished prelates ,nobility, and gentry whose presence at the greatmeeting of that day was expected. Althoug hthe doors were not to be opened to the publicuntil 11 o'clock, for nearl y three hours previouslyconsiderable groups began to assemble in all thelocalit ies adj oining the Rotundo. Shortly afternine o'clock a bod y, consisting of 80 police-con-stables , with five sergeants and a superintendent ,arrived from the C division , who were soon afterfollowed by a like number from the A and 3divisiQ is ; from E and. F police districts 60 meneach were furnished. This force was lmipe-diat. ly under the commapd of Mr. Selwood.Chief Superin tendent of the metropolitan police,and of Superintendents , Dundon , M°naghan ,M'Carth y, and I'itld , and was immediatel y onits arrival stationed in the gardens at the rere ofthu Rotundo ; theie was also a troop of mount-ed police. Indapcndenil y of these a sufficientnumber of men were distributed as sentnes inthe vicinitv of the building, and at its differentg.t .'s an I doo s. A-ium!>er of the Q force wasplaced in the interio r. Such were the precau-tions adopted by the authorities for the preser-vation of order and the maintenances of the tran-rjuility of the meeting from the threatened vio-lation of it by the Rev. Treshara Gregg ! Inpome time- after the nbove arrival s upwards of1,000 quay-men or porters parched up throug hS.-io.l-ville-strcet two and two abreast , and weres j on afterwards jo ined by at least an equal num-ber of men who came in from the CJontarf neigh-bourhood!. These two bodies arranged them-selves in regular lines along Cavendish-row, thegreater portion of Sackville-street and GreatBritain-street , and by their active and unceasingexertinns , in conjunction with llj e police mater-iall y aided in preser ving regularity during theday in these districts. As the hour advancedthe crowds increased so rap idl y that the locali-ties we have jus t named were rendered noaal yimpassable. Notwith standing the numbers whoassembled inside the building , onl y a smvll por-tion of whom could pos3ibly be contained in theRound Room , the most perfect harmony, peace,and good order prevailed , and the prevailing sen-timent seemed to be that of pleasure and satis-faction. Nor did the enthusiasm appear confinedto the crowded streets alone : the river seemedto rival the city in doing honour to the great na-tional object for which the thousands were as-sembling, and to tho distinguished men whothronged our city to join in the demonstration.Nearl y all the shi ps were dressed in their gayestflags , and , with streamers fl ying, appeared tojoin in proclaiming the day as one of festivityand joy.

The llev . Trcsham Gregg ! at about a quarterto eleven o'clock arrived in his carriage with threeof his followers. He presented what appearedto b2 tickets to the bod y of the room ; but wasof course refused admission by the stewards ,lie merel y observed that it was a packed meet-ing,, and then drove off amidst the free expressionof tlie indi gnation of those who recognized him.

The platfoim wras elevated at a considerableheig ht ; in front were arranged arm chairs lorthe prelates , and at the head of the table preparedfor the secretaries was the gilded chair aboutto be filled by the Lord Primate. The wholescene—its enthusiasm , order and harmony,could not fail to remind the spectator of thosedays when the great Liberator of his country,leading n united people , was accustowd to teachtheir ri ghts and liberties to the thousands whoat all times responded to his call. At length ,when the venerable apostk-s of the church ofIreland , headed by the Lord Primate and hisGrace the Archbishop of Tuam , madt- thi-ir ap-puariinc , the enthusiasm of the assembly foundvent in loud shouts of app lause. The-c prelateswere followed by

His Grace the Archbishop of CashelThe L >rd Bishop of CJog her.The Lord Bishop of 15'nming hau.Tlie Lord Bishop of Edinbur gh.The Lord Bishop of E'.p hin.The Lord Bishop of Killalo" 1.Tie Lo'il Bishop o ' Ctanfert.The Lord Bishop of .Savannah.The Lord Bi-hop of Hyderabad.Tli3 Lord Bishop of Saldcs.Lord GOU MANSTOW .V came forward and was

received with loud cheers. His Lordshi p saidMy lords and gentlemen , I have the honour tomove that the Most Rev. Dr. Cullen . Archbi-shop of Armag h , and Primate of all Ireland berequested to take the chair (loud'and enthusiasticcheers).

John R EYNOLDS , Esq , M.P., seconded themotion which was carried by acclamation.

The Lord Primate then took the chair amidthe loud and enthusiastic app lause of the meeting.The cheering having ceased ,

1 lie LOUD P K IMATK rose and was receivedwith renewed cheering, which was prolonged forseveral minute s , all present standing, and disp lay-ing every possible mark of respect and veneration.The cheering having subsided , bis Grace pro-crcded to say—M y Lords and Gentlemen—It isnot without relucta nce and doing violence to myown feelings that I accept the hi gh honour towhich I am called of presiding at this great andimportant meetin g of the Catholics of the UnitedKing dom—an honor hi ghl y appreciated by me,and for which I am most t hankfu l [cheers]. Myinclinations would lead me to seek for quiet andretirement ; it would be my greatest ambition todevote myself exclusivel y to the humble and use-ful duties of a Catholic pastor towards his fj pek ;but , on occasions like die present , every Catholicmust sacrifice his own private feelings , and comeforward in defence of bis reli gion (hear , hear ,and cheers).

In thus coming forward here to-day , I do not consider that I am intrud ing intothe domain of politics , or travellin g beyond , thesphere of ecclesia stical duty [hear]. The pre sentdoes not appear to be in any way a political move-ment ; it ia rather a great manifestation of Catho-lic feeling in favour cf tl)e liberty of qur hol ychurch—a manifestatio n that has the strongestclaim to be guided by the voice , and sanctified bythe prayers and blessings of the priest s of theMost Hi gh. Allow me to add , that even this ma-pifi 'stalion has been forced upon us by an unfore-seen am! unexpected course of events , that it ismade a sp irit of ho sti l i t y, but merel y as themeans of self-defenc e , and in defence of thatwhic h is most dear to us in this world—our re-li gion. I say the Catholics , of this emp ire havedone nothi ng to brin g about the ptesent state ofthings ; they have been forced into the attitudewhich the y have assumed [hear , hear]. But a

ewmc^pths ago, and our brethren in Erg land wer«rej oici;ig in the spiritual favours which the vene-rable iPontiff who fills the • chair of Peter, in triginalienable exercise of his powers as vicar of Jesu$Christ , had conferred on them [loud cheering].—.They wver imagined that they were committingany aggression , or invading any one's rightsthey \rere violating no law, injuring no one, nndthi>y Had been led to believe that they had obrtained a system of ecclesiastical governmentwhich) would be most acceptable to their rulers ,and vfhich had been frequentl y approved ofb ythem or Iheir predecessors. What bad our Ca,tholic "brethren in Scotland undertaken ? Abso-lutel y ' nothing ; they had not moved in any di,reutit n , nor has it ever been pretended that theyhad committed the sli ghtest aggression or giventhe sl ightest offence, {n the mean time what ,was o-nr position in Ireland ? This poor countryhad been visited as no country ever had been be,fore 1 >y famine and pestilence , our tale of ruinhad excited the commisseration of the remotestregio ns of the earth , even the Hindoo , the Ma-home tan , and the disci ple of Conlucim hailshed a tear over our afflictions and stretched ahand to our relief (hear , hear.) It is ever tojberegn tted that one of those enlightened men towhoi a the destiny of this emp ire is committ edshou ' .d have selected such a moment to add toour 1 oisfortunes, and to aggravate the burdensunde r which we were groaning. It ;a not neces-sary , to refer to the Durham correspondence(gro }ns and hisses). It excited the dying embers 1of di .scord , and stirred up all that was base andfilth y in the dep ths of bi gotry a-.id intolerance.Our religious practices were branded as mum -mer ics of superstition , it was declared that ourchu; "ch enslaves the intellect and confines thesoul , Our sacred mysteries were carricatured .and the grossest insults were offered to the saintswho reign in heaven , and even to the most pureand exalted of all creatures , the Holy Mother ofGod .. As if to give a legal sanction to such pro-cee iings a bill of pains and penalties was intro -duc 3(1 into parliament against us, we are threat-ene 1 with a renewal of that penal code whichso 1 3ii£f disgraced this country ; and we wereleft without any protection under heaven , exceptin 0 ur own exertions and resources (hear , nndloui I cheers). Should we not , however , betha: j kful to God for having given such a turnto 1 ate events. If we are threatened with theper- lecution of violence and force , an end is put .to.a m ore dangerous sqrt of persecution , the perse-tion . of false friends , whose smiles and triflin»fav( nirs were scattered for the purpose of enslav-ing us , and graduall y depriving us o fou r reli-gio n or our reli gious ri ghts—who , under thepre tence of being perfectl y liberal , would puttru th and error, light and darkness on the samefor: ting, and who to propagate their prin -cip leu more effectuall y would lake into theirow a hands the whole education of the rising Ca-thc lie generation of the country (hear.) It wasin this way, not by violence or the sword , thatJul j nn the Apostate persecuted his Christian sub.jed ;s—it \yas in this way that the Arian Empe-ror .Constantius , persecuted, the Catholics of histirr ;e. St. Hilary describes this last persecution,an> 1 declares that it was worse than that of Nero ,or Diocletian I will read a few of his words:— ;" 1 'ugnamus contra persecutoretn fallentctn , cpn^tra hostem blandientem , qui non dor.sa c»dit ,sed Tentrem palpal, nori proscribit ad vitam , seJdit it in mortem , non latera vexat , sed cor occu-pat .—non caput gladio desecat , sedanimam anrooccidit—non contendit ne vincatur sed adulatur -ut :dominelur—ecclesiao tecta srruit , ut /idemde: j tru at ." " We have to contend against an,an ;fu l persecutor—a flattering foe ; against onewh .0, instead of lacerating the back, soothes andgr Rifles );he bell y ;' who will not doom us to.th j t proscri ption which gives life, but lavishesth e wealth that kills ; who assails and surprisesth e simplicity of the h3n.rt , rather than rudel yb- :labour the sides. It is not the hei ci he caresto .cut off with the sword , but the soul which hesc eks to destroy with his gold ; his is not thefi j rce strife for conquest , but the soft adulationw hich enslaves. In fine , he will even build upo ir churches , but it is that he m.iy the more si- -c arel y sap the foundations of the faith" (bear ,h j ar). Such was the way in which we too wereti :eated by false friends , but they have been un-.n lasked, and wo may thank God , that tho coursey f events has taught us to put no trust in them ,b ut to rel y on Heaven and ourselves. This is0 ne effect of the recent crisis.but there arc otherc onsequences equally importent. Has not tliet breatend persecution brought out a great andn oble disp lay of thj latent Catholic feeling of thisci )untry (loud and enthusiastic cheering) ?H .ave not the talents and energies of our Catho-lic : members of parliament been called forth , andth eir zeal for religious libert y full y disp layed.H jvc we not seen all the talent , the learning,the ? eloquence, the statesmanshi p of ProtestantEn gland exerted in our behalf (loud cheers) ?To the Aberdeens, the Grahams and the otherPr; >tesrant gentlemen and noblemen , both Eng-lish and Irish , who spoke so powerfull y in ourdefence, we owe a grca.t deb,t of gratitude—theirser rices- should not be forgotten (great cheering).Is i t nof also cheering to see that all the Catholies of this country, forgetting their private feel-ingsi and interests , join as one man in defence ofthei r religion 1 Is it not consoling to see thatthe Catholics of England and Scotland cordiall yunit ed with those of Ireland in this sacred cause ?Per! laps so great (in array of names was neveraffi? ;'cd to the proce edings of any hody as that bywhi ch this mcetie.g was convened.

Trul y when weconsider al 1 these things , we cannot but be mostth nkfu l to that God who rules and disposes aljhuman events for the benefit of those that lovehiio. We cannot but exclaim, that this is thework of t he Most High—that the finger of God,is 'here (Icmd cheers). God has, therefore, donemt}ch for "us in tho present movement. It nowremains fi >r us to do ou,r own part as good Catho-lics, and to co-operate with the benevolent dispo-sition of I 'rovidence in our behalf. The first thingthat I, as: a Catholic bishop, consider myself bounijto call up on you to do—and I speak to you only intho chara cter of a bishop—ris to put all your pro-ceeding.? , under the protection of the Almighty,and to u.nplore of him to guide you and to giveyou the -spirit of wisdom and prudence. •' Unrloss the £Lord build the city, in vain do they lafioijfwho bujj d it-r-unless the- Lord keep the city, invain do jt hey watch who keep it."

His Grace the Lord Archbishop of TuAM .roscamidst the most enthusiastic manifestations ofapplause. When the cheering ceased , his Gracesaid—M y Lord Primate , my Lords, and Gen-tlemen—A resolution has been hande d me,which I beg respectfull y to propose for the adop-tion of this assembl y. His Grace thi -i s, read thefollowing resolution : —

That we unhesitatin gly declare that the present minis-ters luivc liotraycl the cause of civil an<l rrlic;i(<iH frcc-iloin , ij ml forleitj M Uie contiilcncc of the (yalUvlics of theUnited Kingdom.His Grace then continued—I do not anticipate ,my Lord Archbisho p and gentlemen , any dis-crepancy of opinion regard ing the adoption ofthis resolution ; though at the tame time I amfree to confess that there may be some who mayindul ge in the private opinion that the ministersh ive not betrayed the cause of civil and reli giousfreedom —because they were never trusted (loudlaug hter) ; that they never for feited the confi-dence of the Catholics of the United Kingdom ,because they never deserved or possessed it. —Suffice it to say, that whether they did or no ,it is confessed .on all hands that the confidenceof Catholics has been betrayed , And , my LordArchbishop , althoug h it may be full of real orconstructive guilt to assume the ecclesiasticaltitles , and thoug h thcte may be a dep lorablebad taste in the contumacy by which they areasserted , fortunatel y there is no real , there isno constructive guilt in bestowing on t i e per-sons to whom they belong, their legitimatetitles. This distinction may br some be ascribedto the wise discrimina ti on of the legislature ;by oth'.rs it may be traced to that overrulingProvidence which sways the deliberations ofleg islators themselves. It was a prudent pro-vision coming in aid of human infirmit y , engag-ing the zeal nnd courage of a faithfu l peop le indefence of t '. ose sacred titles , which fear or afalse humili t y might tempt any of their occu-pants to forego, reminding them that in the ori-ginal instruments of the apostolical patent onwhich our spb itual titl os ar ^ inscribed ; th"y arc

distingui shed from thus. - baroni al baubles , astransient as they arc darkling, ministering onl yto the vani ty of th-j wearer , and thus continuall yteaching tln 'm to behold in the chartered rightsof their bishops the preciou s counterpart of theirown ri ghts , which it would be treason in the oneto surrender , because they were given in trustfor the spiritual benefi t of the others , ard roun dwhich the latter shall never cease to range them-selves , since they ara the title deeds of theirown and their children 's nv.ist valuable inheri -tance (he ir , hear , an l cheers). Lilth the mi-nister understands this simple and familiar doc-trine of the reci procal ties ihsit essentiall y bin.itogether the pasters and the people—little didhe understand the links that connect the laitynnd pr iesthood , when he attempted to severwhat G >d had bound tog ther—little did heunderstand the deep-seated reverence of thtfaithful for their hierarch y, when he foretold , inhi * capacity of a deluded seer , that the peop lewould witness without motion the operation ofthis bill of divorce , which attempted to separatetho bishops from their wedded sees, leavingthorn , in a state of spiritual wido 'vhood , andtheir flocks in a stnte^of sp iritual orp hanage , andthe bishopc themselves despoiled of the prescri p-tive honours of eighteen cmturios , and doomedlogo on a roving commission for ili« discoveryof any settlements , the companions of the count-less thousands whom his cruel policy badexpatriated , far beyond the pale of hisdelegated power (lound cheerin;;). If he an-tici pated such a result , the fact of this most nu-in'Tous and impirtant meeting must hencefor-ward correct such strange antici pati ins. Weresome of those who recentl y laboured with suchy.i-iil to clear the l nvl of the territorial hierarchy ,as it is called here , they would undoubted l y benstdtiishetl at the suddenness of the resuscitation(hear , hear). Twenty years ago their tiUe swere ignored , a^ain their legil destructio n hashoen repeated. If these , then , who slew the.slain were to be present in this assembl y, theywo-ild not fail , like the persecutors < f the martyrVcnanius to ascribe the miracle of s ich vitali tyto mag ic (hear) ; n n l h. nci: had we 'not beenpressed , na i -, adj u red, by their pious imp ortuni tyto come forward , we should rather have stayedaloof , less the nerves or the loyalty of any spec-tatnr should be shaken by beholding in any livingassembl y so manny forbidden app aritions (laugh-ter and cheers). Had Ireland and its inhabi-tants not been long in an anoinalnu -s position ,and particu larl y its hierarch y strangers to thosalaws and influences by which society is ordi-naril y governed , the Catholic bishops might beallowed to express aston ished at the strangemrtnner in whin li tnoir disinterested services tothe commonweal have been recntly .requited.After pas-ing throug h as suvere a crisis as evertested the patience MHI the fidelity of the pastorsof the Catholic church—witnes sing the diminu -tion of their flocks (hear , hoar), an I the desola-tion of their country (hear , hear) —amidst scenesof suffering which f w pastors were ever doomedto contemp late, and but [aw docks to endure(hear , hear), after having exhorted their devotedpeop 'e to a respect for property tn nn extent whichn. conscientious casuist ni ' f f ht fear to interferewith th'? first princi ples of self-preset vation , andseeing their precept s exemp lified in prodi gies ofpatience such as Spartan virtue never exhibited —nay, such as the sainted heroism of the martyrsnever surpassed (cheers)—who could imag ine thatthose who were instrumental in soothing thepublic discontent , and pres ervin g the publictran quil i ty amidst such terrible trials , were to beselected by our rulers as the first , victims of a bi-g ited proscri ption (h >ar, hoar) ? It is fortu-nate that our holv leliirion continues faithfu l tothe peacefu l lessons of its Divine Founder ; andthat the alleg iance of the Catholic people is everregulated by a hi gher and holier sanction Humcan be derived from any hum in legislation (loudand cotuinud cliee-ing). And wh y t?ii3 unre -lenting hatred , with whi::h tlic ancient Catholichierarch y of the peop le of Ircliml is pur sue I :To perpet a e and keep in temper nn alien esta-blishment , sprung from the secular power andfostered by its patr mage, and. like every suchpetted offspring , continuall y appealing fo*4 extra-ordinary support to prolong its exp iring exist-ence (hear , hear). —It is to this establishment ,forcibl y planted in Ireland , and maintained bythe same force with which it was first planted.We arc indebted for the uninterru pted series ofpenal laws by which we are continuall y aggrived.To the reduc ion of this overgro wn and cumber-some establishment , and the re gulation of itstitles , all derived from (he state , tho mini stermay well and consistentl y app ly him self ; andsurel y that e>t ib !i<hmont cannot comp lain if re-formed and re-formed by that secular power towhich it owes its existence (bear , hear). Forthe Protestant church it may well leg islate , theCatholic church is too attenuated and sp iritualto endure the pressure of penal fetters. It H acurious coinci lence that it is on the same grentfestival wiiich celebrates the nvr.-iculous ju nctionof the chains with which St. Peter was boundby Herod and Nero this penal measure receivedthe royal seal , remindin g us that as H IG apostlewas released from their prcssure.their successorstoo , if thrown into prison , will burst forth fromtin ir bondage, leaving their fetters behind , andenabling some future pil grims to Ireland to com-pare the rusty ho ts of 1820 and 1 5 1 with thepenal relics of the Esq iiline in Rome , and drawthe conclusion of th i impotence of senatorialdespotism against the omni potent power ofour Lord an the vicegerant to whom it wasdelegated (hear, hear). But I must have done.This is not a meeting of one district , or pro -vince, or of Ireland itself ; t embraces tho Ca-tholics of the three united king doms. Herewe have the learned Bishop of Edinbur g h , whois restoring the falling temp les of his country,and kindlin g with the heat , of his own eloquencethe sacred fire which in times of persecutionwas concealed by his predecessors , and lay sinceso long hid amidst the valleys of Scotland (ve-hement cheering). On so extensive a surface ,contracted to the narrow dimensions of the Ro-tundo .it isbut natural that ordinary o-ij ects shouldbe scarcel y visible , whilst those magnificent ob-jects that lose not their brave proportions onany scale mu<t always command attention. Youmust , therefore , be anxious to hear these cham-pions of our country 's ri ghts and reli gion , whohive recentl y filled such a space in the publicrye (hear , hear , and cheers)—on whose wrest -ling with tyrann y in the great parliamentarycircus the grateful admiratio n of Ireland wasfixed (renewed cheers) ; who not with silenttongue , yet with iramj uil scorn , received ontheir amp le shields the bur ning shafts of rmreand bi gotry which were hissing from everyrpiprter , and on whose cars , f .ti sui-d and tornwill} continue.! abuse and blas phemy, the musicof their country 's app lause mst now fall wi thpeculiar sweetness (cheers )— men from whosegallant bearing and Fabiun tactics of delay, theimpetuous persecut or was onl y nble to rest atard y and equivocal t r ium p h , scercel y worthyof the name , and which must recall amidst histroubled dreams the ominous sentiment of theKing of Maccdon , that another such triump hwould involve his own disgrace and discomfiture.(His grace, resumed his seat amid a storm o'np-pbuse , such as, amid th e enthu siasm of an Irish

assembly, Ins been rarel y cqnl led and pcrh-ip sDover exceeded).

Mr. IVEO CH , M.P., seconded the resolut ion,lie said that he should be almost unable to meetthe difficu lty of addressing them after the mag-nificen t speech of the venerable prelate who hadjust resumed his seat , did he not feel that he wasin somi! degree entitled to present himself. Hisfriend , the member Dublin , had told them thathis excellent friend , Mr. Scull y, was a Queen 'scounsel , learned in t ;.e law. He too had thehono ur of being one of her Majesty 's counsel ;but if he had forgotten that little incident , hewas reminded of it on a late occasion by a leadingjourna l of that city, which mentioned it as athing to he anathematiz ed , that one who, byhis profes sional exertions ami not of intri gueswith any minister had attain ed the position per-fectly uuboug ht by him of being one of her Ma-jesty 's counsel—had departed from his hi gh po-si tion , and that he deserved to be stri pped ofhis gown because he gave u title which no actof par liament could destroy—{hear, hea r andcheers) . He ^\Ir. Keogh) now , as one ofher Majesty 's counsel , whether learned or un-learned in the law , holding the act of par liamentin his hand unhesitat ing ly gave his proper title tothe Lord Archbishop of Armag h. It was ri ghthe sliou lij say a word upon the e.vtraordiii iryemergency which for the first time had drawnforth their prelates from their retire ment. Theyhad not come forward voluntaril y, or from motivesof ambition or gain ; they had been dragged for-ward by the act of a base minister. They mi ghtnow almost congratulate themselves that a bl indedand darkened administ ial ion had done an actwhich had the effect of pre .scir.ing such a specta-cle as the entire prelacy of that United King domjoining hand in hand with the nohil i ly and the laityin protesting ag.-i in st persecution [tremendouscheering] . Kvcn on the occasion of the great as-semblies cillcd together in 1B4-3 and 1844 , bytheir late i l lustrious chioftaii — [loud cheers andwaving of hats]—who did everythin g that was inhis power to accomp lish the destinies of his coun-try, their prelacy die! not feel called on to come,forward. It was tl:e act which he held in hishand. When lust he had the hoij our of addressingan aggregate meeting of the Catholics of thiscountry upon the penal enactment whic h was thenin the shape of a bill passing i.hroug li the legisla-ture , he took the liberty of tailing their repre-sentatives that if they united together it wouldnever become the law of the land. Aided by themember for Dublin and other honou rable friends ,he succeeded in dafeating it for a time ; a.nd hadthere not been persons read y to shrink from th eirduty they would have proved that , which withtlioir assistance , they would yet prove—na mel y,that it would be impossible to govern th is emp ireunder such a state of things (hear , and cheers).It had been said by the government that theywero driven to bring in this measnre by the fucl-ings of tho peop le of Eng land : but they hadceitain proofs that the groat , powerful , and in-telli gent c'asses Eng land did not give their assentto t*iat bill (cheers) . They had tin advocacyof the representativ es of Birming ham , Manche s-ter . Sheffield and York. He could ascend tofar hi gher and more illu strious names. Theyhad Sir. Janms Graham-*-(chucrs) iind Mr , Glad-stone , the member for the Universit y of Oxford ,who , supported with his ma(i:hli -s< eloquence theC'lt ise in which they were engaged ; therefore itwould be bad taste on their part not to do amp lejus tice to those who strtigq j od so manfull y (<> rthem—(cheer."). There were persons: goingab<vut , who oug ht to know bet t er, stating to theuninterested , that the Homort Catholic religionof Ir-land was in no way interfer ed with bythat bill. The learned gentleman then read thefirst clause of the ecclesiasticrl bill , t> show thatby it all briefs , rescripts , lelters apostol ic , andj urisdiction were un lawful. These (he continued)were the very words for winch their ancestorsbled and suffered. Wero they not to bo allowedto worshi p their Creator according to their ownconscience ; and were the penal acts, aftertwenty-one years, lo be re-enacted ?—(never).There might be a tremendous person onthat platform or in the bod y of the roombut let him not have the opportunityof misrepresenting that what they were en-gaged in was all noise, and fictitious , and thatthe Catholic reli gion was still untouched(cheers). He declared , under the corre ction ofthe learned prelates by whom he wassurrounded that "if this act be c irried intooperation they could not administer a sing le,otlice of their reli gion without violatin g the law(hear , hear). What remed y did they propose ?Let them send into parliament forty representa-tives reasonabl y determined to stand togetheras one man , and to say to the mini ster of theday that they required such and measures for1 reland , and above all a repeal of that bill (cheers).If their represen tatives would make no termswith the minister uatil ho repealed that act ofparliamen t , or any oteer statute which intcr -fereil with tha religious freedom of Roman Ca-tholics , he would not again write a letter slatingth at the Catholic reli gion was " calculated toconfine the intellect and enslave the, soul"(cheers).

The resolution was then curried .The Ri ght Rev . Dr. Gnu.s , of Edinbur gh,

moved tho next .li 'solut ion ;— " That w; hereb ysolemnl y pledge ourselves to use every legitimatemeans within the constitution to obtain a totalrepeal of that act, and every other statute whichimposes upon the Catholics of this emp ire anycivil or relig ious disability whatsoever , or pre-cluded them from theenjoymentof their religion.'lib ( Hew Dr. Gillis) said , 'wishing to agree ineverything with the membj rs of that meeting,he was very sorry to be obl iged to begin with aprotest. He had bsen announced to them asthe Lord Bishop of Edinburgh , but he was sorryto say that there was not in the world such aa person even for Lord John Russell to protestagainst (hisser). They had assembled there , hewould not say from the most distant parts, butsome from the very ends of the world , for the pur-pose of furthering the object!! of this meeting, anddefending those ri ghls which have been so wan-tonly and insulting ly tramp led upon (cheers).i lo was more willing to take charge of the reso-lution entrusted to him to propose , as he feltthat it would meet a true and hearty responsefrom every lover of human equality and reli gion-freedom—(hear) . They had ahead y heard froma prelate , distinguished for his reli gious z-al,who brought back once more the hono ur of Ro-man people. Dr. MacH alo told them that theact latel y passed was, in fact , an open violationof the compact contained in the Catholic ReliefAct of 1829, and , as such , subversive of thegreat princi ples of reli gious liberty in this em-pire—(hear , hear). He , as a Scotchman , tookthe liber ty of staling that it; was no less a viola-tion of the treaty between Scotland and Kng-land ; that treaty which every soverei gn wassworn to maintain on the day of coronation.What under the canopy of heaven could theynow do but humbl y and confidentl y nppe.il toa hi gher tribunal , ol which the j ud gment seat wasabove the sky—(heir). Let them unite at onceand take a bold and open siand in ihe face of theoppressor—(hear). They should never res,t sa-tisled until they had swept away not onl y tr.a t

act which disgraced the statute b iok , but u 'snevery other which precluded the Catholics of dieUnite d King dom from the enjoyment of perfectequality with every class of their fel-fellow-subjects—[cheers ] .

There was not much to bo done inScotland , as they have been comp letel y settle dthere ; but they would make 'he best use of theirton gues (hear).

Jlr. G. Moore , M. P. for Mayo , seconded theresolution. Having entered into the histor y oftho ecclesiastical titles bill in its progress throug hthe House of Commons , and criticised ihe votesand speeches of the members who supp orted oropposed its enactment , the honourable gentlem anproceeded to allude to the civil and religious dis-abilities to which the Roman Catholics of Ire landwere obli ged to submit in former limes , and forwhich they were indebted , as he alled giid , to "thepersecuting sp irit of Protestantism. " Now , how-ever that the penal laws were well ni gh dead , andthe wounds of centuries had begun to be healed byrational leg islation , Protestantism again steppedin with its little petty acts of persecution , its dulldecoction of unmi t i gated vanity and sp ite , notenoug h indeed to create a real wound , hut ju stenough to simula U the old sores , nnd excite in afevered frame an addiiional sense of exasperation—(h ear , hear). Lass than 100 years ago nnIrish ju dge told an Irish Catholic from the benchthat tlic law did not recognise in Ireland the ex-istence of a Roman Catholic— [hear , hear]. Theyhad been looking b.ick to that story with a kindof incredulous wonder , and yet an act had beenpassed under their very noses , the gist of whichwas that the law did nut recognise in Ireland theexistence of the Catholic church (hear , he ir).But before this act of parliam ent obtained thevirtue of a law in Ireland the three estates of therealm mus '. pr ocure the consent of the very menwhose existence they pretend to ignore—[cheers].Liit tlii 'Mi fur a liniment suppoj i* Mita liill to b ; law if acoup le of tin y .-MI <if Him in Iru.'iiml. li.ivin «j no Ie^i l f /a t l t s ,anil onl y a tie fiiclo IIM I I tie ju ie existence , wrre to sendlo tlie .Secretary of 11": Stale , lor pr ciiGntalioii to thoQiiKun .a moiln st apolojr y fur being Ue scemlmil* of theapoj llcj , .si<r>>iui ? tlni i lucniucnt by Die s(vl.: uml titl i '.iiimlnr which nlonc they cnuM i-xurriie rin -ir pp Ui 'opalj uris d iction—(hi 'nr uml cliRi>r»)—was there , let liini H«k.a innn , either Kii if li-h or lr i >h , who believed Unit a suc-cessfu l prosecution of Ihoj c il lustrious perj omi cmiM )*>carrii iil throu g h by nny (i oveininunt unili -r lieiwen (n > , nn).Til ij WMS whnt the j r ot cruniRii t termed n^Hinnc H topapal a'.'j .'r-ssioii—to lay tlienni;lvt-s prostrate hefnrothose who were nrmO 'l •• pop Mi priests ," n n l rel y ont'leir fnrt icurniice . thei rmni l p rut ion , their compas sion ,no'to expose (heir w.'aknois , but tii allow th e cnuuterMt lopa-iD current , that half a dozen men in F.n jj'a nl were ableto impede or mimil the rcli _'inm worship of tho Irishpeop le (hear , hear ami cbeeri).

" RIGHTS OF WOMAN1

We extract tlsc (ollowiii g from an article np -pp aring in the Illustrated America n Keics :—

There is another class of laml-pirutcs , who preyon the ri ghts of women. New York , and lkoad-way in particular , is comp letel y infe?t ( d by tln-min ji leasant weatlisr for these fowls .of fine fea-thi'i-s- can 't Ij rcn st a storm ; you may see themon the step 1: of the Astor , the How.ird, theFranklin , "n.l every oth '.r hotel where dronebees do eon?;re^ate. There they stand , plantedlike- the Mandarins in the show-windowof a tea-shop. If you have time and patienceto stand by St. Paul's, \ou may count some>v<ircs <> f these automatons , passing and and rc-passing Sfty times , between Leonard and Rec-to:- stieet" , in the course of three hours). They^oni-rall y hook arms , and as they grin an talk ,iir.d loolc in one another 's faces , their motionhas much of the swagger of the .Siamese twins .Vou may know them by the cut of their jibs ;thev have beards like the goa ts, on the mountainsof St. Gothard ; their slender waists (I am now.«pe:iking of two-legged animals who call them-selves men ,) are sque ezed up wish wimlebone ,rord and buckram , they resemble a groupof sp idr-r s suspended between heaven and thegreat deep from the branch of a peach-tree.'1 hey also wear suspenders , which aru intended toacV as proventor < , (as the sailors fay), to stop thecxtrenu-ties from parting with the trunk. Nowt hese simple sons ot silly women , do nnthino; butliij nl among the weaker sex. seeking whom theyKici y devour. They arc of their father the devil ,for he u-3s the first ly ing dandy that ever de-ceived a woman. The weak r sister havin glost caste, is driven from society to the hi gh-ways and hed geways for food and shekel ; trod-den under foot by the scorn of man , a bye-wordand hissing to her more fortunate sifters , andlaiur '-U il at by the perjured wretch who wroug hther destruction ,—while he, provided his browniiiih i* covered with black superfine, is admittedinto the best society. Best society indeed ! Itis onl y » lew years ago that Munr oc Edwardscounted on..- in this besl socif ty. Edwards wasA forger , a swindler and a cheat , and closed hislifu in the states-prison ; but the blat k-heai tcdvillain who robs a confiding maiden of h< ;r fa irI'i imeand spotless character , is a villain of a deeperdye ; and this villain is a magnet in the b?stsociety ! He eats their dinners , ho drinks theiri\ in c , struts on their carpets , lolls on their solas ,and salutes the fair li ps of their daug hters. La-dies , thci -c things are done in evury grove, andunder every green tree, in the best society. Butit ought , not to be so.

I was led to these reflections by a visit to thepmitu nt iury ; many, very many of the femealprisoners wen; models of beauty in face and per-son ; God made them angels, man madi ; themdevils. Thi-y walked in pairs with other out-casts from society, under the rod and correctionof a s.ivag-; looking mortal , a *' Lord of the(na t ion . "

THE POOR LAW.At the conclusion of a rcmarkebl y able ar-

The Commissioners send forth asmuch writing , and Guardians go throug h asmuch discussion "8 should he sufficient for thegovernment <>f half the earth.

He (Mr. Bngnall) felt great pleasure in movirgthnt resolution ; and he must say, as a mem-ber of this board , Unit he had for some tima \>s\<-t ,on account nf the r unhappy dif ferences , toiledin it not ituhed with pleasure , but a great dealof re luctance. Now , h-iwever , ha w;is happv tosay his labours , irksoin.: as they were , werecrowned with success*, and a happy term inationput to them , in the blessed union which theyhad th .it ni ght perfected (hear , hear , and cheers) ,lie said blessed union , and he thought it wouldbe permanent ; for when ho saw the chai imansurrounded by so many respectable inhabitantsof the city, including a portion of their clergy,lie considered that he might rest s-itisli-j d tha tthe union would bu lasting (cries of hi;:ir. hoar ,and cheers). He had tuken himself , lor thelast 19 years of his life , from the happy retir e-ment in which he had confined himself , solel yto business , o;i account of the unhappy position inwhich he saw his country had been placed—acondition that no nation now on the ea-.th , or inhistory , was placed in—to endeavour to dosomething for his poor fatherland ; and nothingbut such feelings and considerations could causehim to come out and toil and labour with suchreluctance. He should feel satisfied by sayingthat , if he wern to retire at that moment , hethoug ht the union then effected , being para-mount , should plnce the country in a positionthat would lay the ground of future pro sperity ;that is, with their united efforts they shouldplace her in that state which God and natu re in-tonded her for , a great manufacturing and com-mercial country ; and , he believed , one of themost prosperous nations that was ever on theearth (hear , hear , and cheer.s). Those wereblessings he wished his native land , an<l whichhe hoped before he left this world , he would seerealized (loud cheers).

Mr . Nugent said he had been rtquested to se-cond the resolutio n of his excellent fi iend , andhe did so with the greatest pleasure. Hu washappy to be amongst them then on that occasion ,for , thoug h a member of their society, he haddeclined attending their meetings while theycontinued districted nnd di-iuiitcd (cheers).Union and pcacrs were re-established in the con-solidation of the two board-;, and it was gratif y-ing to him to see gent 'emon of cJiileronlop nions working and acting together for thesame obj - -cts , and unit ing for the purpose ot ad-vancing thu indu strial interests of the ir commoncountry (loud cheers). He had gone there tosustain them with all his energ ies in endeavour-ing to pro-cote the manufactures of Ireland ,which , to his knowled ge, had , for the last thirty-three or thir t y-four years , decayed in a greatmeasure , and still continued to r!ec:iy. A greatmany of the causes which contributed to such astato of things were attrib uted to themselves ,and they mii3t , In future , seek to remed y it bysteadil y promoting the objects of the society(hear , hear ) . He s-nv at that moating some otthe best men in Ireland , and amongst them hewas happy in rccognisiair that g -od pastor , theRev . Ur. Spratt (cheer.s). It was his pre -cneeand co-opcratioa that mainl y broug ht him (Mr .Nugent) to lhut meeting. Every member siioal 'luse iiis influence with his famil y -ami his nei gh-bours to make them sustain Irish nvinufneturi :.And althoug h by that they w;ro merel y doingan act of abstract patriotism , t ':cy would allowhim to say that thereb y they wi-re d .ing an in-dividual good to themselves , siuJ ne ituriii -j t l ieirfamilies and posterity. M r. Nugent having thenc-xiiorted ihein ;o persevere , resumed his scatamid loud cheers.

j llr. lialph then rose , and said he would merelysay a few wo:ds in support of the observation sovery well made by the two gentlemen w;io pre-ceded him. He too, r jok -cd, and most siiicerul y,that this union had been that ni ght cun-um-niiited. Hi; did bc 'bvc that , in the consumma-tion of such r.u union , there was In -gun a greatday and fli ght for Ire-land (hear , hear , and cheers).As to the diirmsnees that had taken j il.-ice in the[last , at the sums t ime , he did no: SL-O tiie -e hadbeen allusion limit to them that ni ght , i le didnot sec :t mixed evil in iriem ; fur it was his con-viction '.hat , by those differences being broughtbefore the minds of them all , questions , whichmi ght never be investi gated fully, had been dis-cussed , and when men understood the opinionsof one another on them , they wo.:Id be preparedto concede a iittle to eacli other , and iliuill y giveup their differences for the cause. He luckedon that society in a twofold point of view , so-ciall y and politica ll y. Hitherto they had puli-tical meetings in this country, and when hu al-luded to politics , he was not going to speak them ,but mere l y to say a few words perfectly consis-tent with the introduction to their rules whichstaled that ona of the duties of the society was'• to kindle , in the heaita of our people a n«\v setof national passions—a new set of national ideasin their mind , which shall lead them graduall yto the estimation of deeds of industry and manu-facturing enterpii -c , lead them to prize the new-born labour of their own hands , ana slowl y, yetcertu inl y induce them to deeds of industry, andto contemn unprofitable id' etiess ;"nnd the mindsof the people, aye , some of the most enthusiasticmin Is bad been exclusivel y turned to politicalmatters, seeking in them for the regeneration ofthe couutry, but they had , from a variety ofcauses, failed. Now , the minds of the mostthinking and the most practical peop le of ourcity had turned to a new train of ideas, and in-stituted a social society for the improvement ofthe manners and habits of the people, and there -by gain some advantages whicii by politics theycould not obtain. If they looked at the Con-tinent , the Hanse Towns , and the cities of Hoi.land , they would perceive that , first , <\ great so-cial progress luid been effuj ted before they be-came prosperous , and then politicall y powerfu l(near , hear) , lie would ask of every memberof the society to make our people iiist soc.ullyprosperous belon.- they became -politicall y so.One was the passage , to the other , and ho (Mr.Ral ph) askeiLJj'ptlj. There that ni ght, surround-ed by sotniy-Cj ^W-^H-st

men of

the city of Dublin ,men praet fttf l and firm , they coinmence.l witha united soc ety in this great path , (hear , hear).That lirst meeting of t:ic society., thoug h notvery large , was respectable ; but he looked onit , comparing the present with the future time ,now as --he brook bubblin g from ttie -apii ng,smali at first , but then swellin g into A mi ghtyriver , bearing on its bosom happiness and pros-perity to a suffering peop le (luir.l cheers). Mr.l< ul ph, in coiiciusiun , said if a proper energy wasexhibited in carry ing out their objects , they hadnot the slig htest reason to despair of the mig htyresult.

The .chairman then put the motion for theadoption of the report , and it p issed with ac-chunalion.

Mr. Burkitt propos i d , snd Mr. Redmondseconded the next resolution , which passed asas follows ;—

He had great pleasure in moving th ^nJop Uonf f the rcso luticn he hadju st read ; also in say ingthat the business of the United Board h\d begun(hear , hear). He at the same time, would tukethe liberty of makin g a suggestion , namel y—that other boards should mind their own aff.iirs ,while the board t0 which he bel nged would mindtheir 's (hear , hear). There should be no moredisputing, no more writing at other parties ;they were to put th^ ir shoulders to the wheel ,and woik (cheers).

Mr. Andre -.v Bagot said, before the resolutionwas p-.it , ha would wish to say a few words inexp lanation. If the three gentlemen named inthe resolution were not re-app ointed , thuy wouldbe obli ged to tesi gn. while others were.appointed ,on the p-irt of the United Board , which wouldcause a difficulty as to the money in the bank.

Mr . Morton seconded the resolution , and itpassed unanimousl y.

Mr. Richard Ternan said , in accordance witha notice of motion given on a former ni ght ofmeeting, he would propose the following reso-lution ! —

Abouta fortnig ht before , a very serious c' rr.';e hadbeen made against him , not onl y n :n u : ing tof lony, but hi." name was pu t forwani sis if hehad ende woured to S'-ize the books of I - e societyl .iy fo-ce. First , it wns stated that 'he .-M Crtin gat which the resolutions of the committee werepassed was a packed meeting ; while he , in biscapacity of honorary [secretary to tho committeefor the public meeting of the 8th of Jul y, sentout about .'J50 circulars to members of thr; hoard

.to attend that meeting. Hu would p!e-!ge hishonour that twonty-live of the members wereii (it known to him ; he nierelv did his duty tosummon them ; and no one could s.iv thnt waspacking the meeting (cheer?.) Another accusa-tion made was , that the room bt- ing so full , noneof the council could got near t 'le table , or intothe room nt r.ll. That was false . So friendl ya sp irit pervm ' eil the meeting , that if any cor-th iman expressed a wish to got forward , waywould have been made , and he could have occu-pied the best snat. in the mum (hear.) Withregard to the b'ioks, hn had actt d accordin g tothe wishes of the committee , to which there wnsno dissentient.

Mr. Andrew 11 . Uagot seconded the resolu-tion. He said it nppo i.'ited a mnst usefu l com-rni:tee , the operations of which had been inter -rupte d four months before (hear , hear.) Somemonths previousl y a good deal was done by par-liament on the subject of flax , a most imp ortantmatter , both to the firmer ami manufacture r ,the growth of which would give emp loyment toa greater number of agr icultural peop le , anilafterwards there was no article that gave somuch emp loyment during ils manufacture. Hetherefore hoped that the committc would turnits attention particularl y to it , and -ise theirefforts to promote its cultivati on. The extraor-dinary extent to winch tho manufac ture of fabric- 'from flax extended had pone bevoml concept ion.In the report it wa« stati-d that 200,000 femaleswere emp loyed in Ireland in the embroidery ofmuslin alone. Then there was the exp ectationthat , aftersomc time, by the new improvem ents ,flax would supersede cotton. [Here tin ; Rev.Mr. Preston handed thcspcajicr a paper full ofa substance which to all appearance resembledcotton wool. The rev. gentleman stated it w- sflax , and that it had been brought to tha t state intwo hours by Clansmen 's chemical process.]The importance of that improvement should l-.-adto a greatly increased demand for flax. Thesums of money sent out of the country for cot-ton could scarcely be estimated (hear .) Hewould next come to peat churcoal , and the usethe bogs of Ireland could be put to. A societylatel y started in London had done a great dealf .f ood ; hi: referred to the Irish AmeliorationSociety. He had been in conversation with theagent of the society in the course of the (lav ,and bis oxpresMons were that the article ot tu rfwould be in a short time used as a 'substitut e forcoal , not onl y fur stfatii-en g inecs and householdpiirpose s , but the citizens of Dublin could be fur-nishe d wito compres sed turf , as hard as coal , atfrom ten to twelve shillings per ton. Thesestatements were xery important to the citizensof Dublin , when the immense sums of moneysent out of the countr y for English coa.1 weretaken into accouiv (hear , hear.) ' -A gain , peatcharcoal was used for agricultural purposes. Forsanitary purposes its use was attended wilhthe greatest .success. When he mentioned thequantity of the charcoal exported amounted to100 tons per week , to Scotland and elsewhere ,he thou ght it was a most important subject.While on that top ic, he would say. a^ matterworth y of remark , that those who arrived atanything like eminence in Ireland found th.itthe ir best customers were amon? those who

were engaged in foreign trade. The fact th atIrish manufactures could find so good a marketabroad ought to be an encouragement to themand -"vhich showed that they compete with theworld in any article which could be produce d inIreland (hear , hear). He would mentio n oneor two articles—linens .embroid ery*; and of thecharcoal , nine -tenth s .of what had been manu-factured in I r ehn l for the previous nine monthswas exported. As to poplins , it was not fash-ionable to wear their own poplins ; but theywere exported to England , to America (cheers ')Irish makers could sell portmanteaus in othercountries. The Limerick laces and Irish h osie-ries were considered to be the best to be had inLondon , which wa3 a proof of the marked suc-cess at tending the stead y efforts of the menemp loyed in these manufactur es (hear , hear) .In the Great Exhibit ion everything fiom' Irelandwas excellent , and many things sent from thiscountry were superior (cheers). Mr. Ba"otconcluded by seconding the resolution , and °ie-sumedhis spat amid loud cheering.

The Chairman put the resolution , which passedunanimousl y. He then said , he was satisfied anexport trade could be established in this country.He himself was in that trade, and had to comlpete with some of the most knowing fellows inthe world. He could alwnys get orders fromScotchmen for his goods. He assured themeeting he would? give the Board every assist-ance in his power (cheers).

Mr. A. H. Bagot said the United Boardwould meet on every Tuesday evening.

The Chairman havin g been moved fro m thechair , and Mr . John Bagnall . T.C. being calledthereto, the marked thank s of the first meetingof Che United Board were given !o Mr. T. WiUliams , for his business-like and courteous man-ner while presidinc-.

NEWSPAPE R REPORTING .

We may as well take this occasion to sav afew woids o:: reporting, as mo*t of the mom bursseem to be as innocent as suck ng doves , uponthe- question ; and feel seriousl y hur t at }>aii n - 'their p inions cli pped a little shorter th ;in theywished. Many of these gentlemen seem toimag ine that the whole system of reporting isintended for their individu al benefi t ; and Thatby some such natural and mysterious processas a butterfl y butsts from a chrysalis , shouldtheir speeches appear in print th e next mornino ,and not onl y what .they did say, but what theymeant to say, in clugant languag e divested ofall tautolo gy, and broken and meaning less sen-tences. We can assure most of the gentlementhat they would cut a pretty figure if the irspeeches were literall y rep orted. They seem tohave no kind of ido.i of the miss of writiii "-,and the labour of both reporters and printers ,that is necessary before these speeches can hereproduced . If they were to try reportin g forone ni ght they would find it a different thin g totalking.

A speech of one hour full y reporte 1 wouldfill upwards of three columns of a new<i ;anerin close type , and then some of th-! mere ver-biage would have tn be thrown away, .is a notvery fa?t speaker would utter upwards of seventhousand in an hour. Supposing the durati onof the debates to average six hours , eighteencolumns would be dail y required to report themal length , and then very I'cv; persons wouldtake the trouble of readin g th-m , except the.speakers themselves. — Toronto Colonist.
