The proof I would offer of the patriotism of those _^ j 0 ur poverty starved into opposition is tbis ;

      _* a _; one ami all who have abandoned our ranks bave _hj-tn refuce on soml neutral ground , or in some _ismhug paying speculation , without the most _re-^ . _jrrfere ice to their professed principles , or , _inittd , to any _principles at aU . I address you now _tfeitloK , _'D _, _* "o an unnecessary , nor yet infelidtoas , political lull . I have frequently told you that _fa eis a I _' _HILOSOl'UY IS IDLENESS , wbich sane hut those who have seen the effect of excite

      sent kept up too long , and to an unnatural _tem-KrJture , can understand . I bave seen many battles _loit hy inji . _iiiciuus and ill-timed excitement . I have _ssn many elections lost from tbe same cause . Upon le other hand , I have seen a well-timed agitation ' 0 wonder * . We have now arrived at the third stage of our political movement—the direction of public opinion ; tad upon < ur union and prudence in tbis stage depends our hopes of success .

      _Jernow itioretbau fifteen months unbroken barbcbt has juevailed in our ranks . I date this _cessaaoE of in _' _trr-fll hostilities from the meeting of that wise _Cbar-ist Conference held at Manchester in December . 1845 , and by wbich we paralysed tbe nerve of the FREE TRADE party , and cut off all _fcope of dissension from under O'Connell's feet . YYLen the _> nemy fails to weaken our fortress , it unfortunately happens that we not _unfrequently do it _fotoarseUts ; aud I was pained to learn , from a long report of a meeting convened to receive the Report cf ibe Lou-ion delegates to the Land Conference , thai a chi ' .. i : sb and very unmanly course of

      crimination and _recrimination was pursued , about Mrs . A . Jelling Mrs . B . that Mrs . C . was not what she ought tole , ar . d Mrs . G . gave Mrs . L . _' s address to Mr . D ., and Mrs . J . told Mrs . L . that Mrs . ii . the rife of . Mr . M ., was a strumpet , and that the Directors had a spar at Birmingham about a report that appeared in a paper of the flue-ay's , _snd then Mrs . T . insists upou hearing from ihe various localities visited by Mr . M . and Mr . C . whether in their speeches they did equal justice to the Charter and tbe Land , and tben , why tiie wages ol the Directors was raised . I feel assured that tbe FUSTIAN JACKETS , THE BLISTERED HANDS AND UNSHORN CHINS ,

      jfba look for " a fair day ' s wage for a fair day ' s ¦ Fo rk , ' ' through the union of their order , will look with loath . ig and contempt upon such old women ' s _mV-jisb . As for my own part , I caudidiy confess tha ; 1 look upon the Land movement , as compared -sritb . the Charter movement , as a -mere drop of water in the ocean ; but then I have sense and diKriminaiion enough to see aud understand , that , but for the Land , the Chartist movement would be _Mriued to a few faithful , sanguine souls , who ever ie ! v upon the rcal . z ttion of right , sooner or later .

      I now _ies my way more clearly than ever I have dote before ; I now see tbat all classes will henceforth dreid any popular movement in this country , from the con fiction that then the demand for the Land wouM not be confined to those only who have _tao-vn their pride , their spirit , and self-respect , by attributing to it ; Imt would become au irresistible epidemic , in which the middle classes would be compelled to join ; hence , I have the consolation of knowing that I have put a ruffle to the shirt , at O'Connell used to say . I have tbe consolation of

      knowing ibat by my own dogged perseverance in an " . deviating course , upon a novel subject , that I bave hi to the inevitable break up of LAND MONOPOLY—the worst of all monopolies , i hare the consolation of believing that the tyrants in power , who id not dread the promulgation of our political principles in Courts of Law , would not relish a five days ' _speech from me upon the value of small farms aad free labour , as compared with large farms and slave toil Nov--, believe me , that this is no small check « i > oa tyranny , and the tyrant ' s laws .

      The principal object , however , wbich I have in bow addressing you is this , to rouse you IN TIME , _K THE NICK OF TIME , to a DETERMINED _Jfl'i UNALLOYED _Chartist movement , witb which no other QUESTION WHATEVER ; neither Land , Tec Houis' Bill , Poor Law , or Famine shall be _•** - _** 'd up , otherwise than as collaterals of the ONE GKEAT QUESTION—THE PEOPLE'S CHARTER _^ and the mode by which the hands of OUR OWN , OUR HONOURED , OUR GLORIOUS CHIEF may be strengthened in the next struggle . I aire & dy discover the glimmer of a fribbling com-Promiiing policy , which is sure to be proposed , but , ts fa as I am concerned , 1 shall abide by my farmer

      rule—HE WHO IS NOT FOR US , IS AGAINGST US . And politicians are very like religionists—the acre meagre the difference between sects , the grater the feud , and in good truth I have always found that the nearer political professors come to our creed , the more hostile theT are to our faith .

A letter was sent to me last week , nibbling _«• a bit of support for Mr . Cochrane in _Westniin-* j » . with the intimation tbat , if published , ONE _8 VXDUED copies ofthe Star would be taken . Did you ever hear of matchless insolence equal | ° * bat ?

      they then offered me a largo sum to suppress it ; at this I felt rather indignant and put the report into the fire , _sayinj , "Do you _suppo _* , I keep a _newspaper to traffic in your wounded feelings V The geatltmen looked gratefully surprised , and told me the price ihey _ba-l paid AT OTHER SHOPS for suppressing the report . On leaving my room they enquired where thoy could pay up their subscriptions for _» year ' s papers . I asked thera what polities they _srere off They _rtplied , "Tories .

      directly nor indirectly . " They shook hands , thanked me , and hare since beea my FRIENDS . Now , Brother Chartists , you wilt probably bave asked yourselves , what ' s coming . I ' il tell you—Now is the NICK OF TIME FOR AGITATION . Parliament , nay , all the Parliaments of the world , are about to meet . They are all , one and all , hampered by GOD'S _DISPENSATION . Their weakness is our opportunity- I MUST TAKE THE FIELD AGAIN .

      All tbe work to be done tor my youngest child shall be done by contract , and is already contracted for . I will put your bouses iu order , I will then put the Bank on its first legs , and prepare for the jubilee of my eldest child attaining his majority , and by tbe lst of February ] shall start on my holy mission , but will not visit any place that does . not promise me the TROUBLESOME PLEASURE of coming back with a fair proportion of Chartist wares —Petition Sheetswell filled . You see the W HIG

      CHIEF-JUSTICE OF THE COMMON-PLEAS has not yet RUINED ME WITH EXPENSES , nor cowed my spirit . I hope to bt at the opening of our own Parliament , at White Conduit House , on Monday , to receive the commands of MY LEADER and YOUR FRIEND : and no _sabaltern ever more cheerfully , or scrupulously obeyed the commands _^ of his superior officer , than I shall obey his . This , my friends , is no small portion of our strength , that all HONOUR , none ENVY , Duncombe . He has withheld no balance sheet ; be bas silenced no discussion ; be bas relied upon no hired

      staff ; he has exacted no tribute ; be has trimmed to no trimming policy for pelf and patronage ; he bas not been all things to ali men ; he has not " run with the hare and held with the hound ; " he did not use our strength for his own lucre and our undoing ; he joined us when we were weak , denounced , persecuted , despised , and contemned . His reception on Monday , therefore , will be such as will convince him of our confidence and love , and our enemies of our devotion to our principles—wbich are his principles . We will be BID FOR ACCORDING TO OUR VALUE : let us not UNDERRATE

      OURSELVES ; let the purchasers understand that we go IN ONE LOT ; and that FREEDOM IS OUR PRICE ; and THE CHARTER THE COIN in which it must be paid . Erery throne is Europe , thank God , is tottering from _rottennesss _, while the President of America is fast rivetting the people ' s chains with a National Debt , which Pitt looked upon as the bond of peace between the RICH OPPRESSOR and the POOR OPPRESSED . Ireland , from wbich I had some latent hope , has been paralysed by intermitting fits of treachery and famine , tbe magic of tbe old showman standing in the way of any new movement . We must have our PETITION with OUR FOUR MILLION of signatures , ami our Chartist

      Convention to escort it to the DOOR OF THE SENATE HOUSE , as a reward to our chief , who will meet us and cheerfully receive the national tribute of a people ' s confidence . Chartists ! we are the only moving , acting , active party ; we will not be beaten or put down by friend or foe , nor yet by a union of all tbe adverse elements . To your TENTS then , oh Chartists ! drawn from the INK BOTTLE . Away with your old women ' s rubbish about female virtue and strained morality . If indeed you hate vice , make it a crime by good example , and give to ai an opportunity of developing their virtues , by rewarding them according to their merits . Your rulers live upon whoredom , drunkenness , lewdness , dissipation , gambling , and crime . MAKE THEM

      VIRTUOUS ; REFORM THEIR SINS AND YOUR NEIGHBOUR CRIMES WILL VANISH . But , for God and the People ' s sake , let us have no more of your mock sentimentality . I don't promise tbat tbis will be the CLINCHING YEAR ; nor that I will put MY HEAD ON THE BLOCK IF THE CHARTER DOES'NT COME , but , I say , let the next three months be the SIGNING QUARTER , and the NEXT YEAR WILL BRING FORTH

      FRUIT ACCORDING TO YOUR SCATTERING IN THIS OUR SEED TIME . I remain , Brother Chartists , Your faithful and uncomprising Friend and Fellow-Labourer , Feargus O'Connor . ONWARD AND WE CONQUER , BACKWARD AND WE FALL . THE PEOPLE'S CHARTER AND NO SURRENDER !

      IRELAND . KARRATITB OF MALCOLT * H'GRIGOR . HO . X . Under ordinary circumstances an Irish funeral is , I am informed , anything rather than a mournful er even a solemn ceremony ; while that of" waking the deceased , " as it is termed , partakes of the character of a festival . These remarks apply only to cases where death comes in the ordinary course of nature , aad where the departed has " been prepared " by receiving " extreme unction , " according to the

      rites of the Catholic Church prescribed in such cases ; and , those rites once administered , it is _^ considered rather unlucky if the afflicted should recover . When life departs , the corpse is washed all over , and , if a man , is shaved , the limbsare then stretched , the nose pinched , the eyes closed , and the body laid out , dressed in white and hung round with white sheets . Tbis ceremony performed , the family and friends of deceased relieve their hearts' sorrows by a good cry , and what is termed a ' _hullagone ; " after which tea is provided for the old women , and pipes , tobacco , and whisky for tbe men ; and in the evening , and during every evening , and all night _. till the funeral takes place , the house is filled with men and women ; tbe old

      enjoying themselves with pipe and a glass and tea , and the young joining in the merriest games and amuse- ' ments . The deceased is looked upon with envy rather than compassion or sorrow in such cases ; as the spirit once fled . it is , if prepared for departure , resumed to be in another and a better world . The funeral also lacks tbat appearance of sorrow manifested bv mourners less confiding in Heaven ' mercy ; not so , however , when the deceased has been sent to bis last account , " unhouseled , unappointcd , _unannealed , " as was the case with poor Phelimeen . Under sucb circumstances , the soul ol the departed _stauds in jeopardy , aad the surviving friends feel _proportionate grief , that wont of all pangs , the fC _oftt-nitudtot * * _sUUi «?"**•«•» j

      ( Contimmfrom tht second _islwmi , ) gnawing of perpetual doubt and suspense . Hence the funeral of Phelimeen , like the wake-house , was as melancholy a sight as can well be imagined . I arrived at the bouse of mourning in company with Mr . O'Farrell , just as tbe melancholy ceremony of nailing down the coffin was about to be performed ; the bereaved and broken-hearted fatlier was with difficulty torn from his child ; his grief had been till now partially suppressed and partially allayed by the hope of revenge , which appeared the only palliative

      for his sorrow ; but when the ghastly sight was hid from his longing eye , it was as if the world of hope was shut out by the darkness of despair . He tore his long white locks , threw himself prostrate on the coffin , and recounted his son ' s vir tues and perfections , as if pleading to the Throne of Grace in his behalf , and it was only by the mild persuasion of hia priest that he could be induced lo abandon his gripe of the coffin , when , turning round to the weeping relatives , he exclamined , " Before you take him from me , will jou promise me satisfaction for bis blood . "

      An aged man whispered something in his ear which the O'Donnell appeared to quatF as words of joy , be smiled wildly , and , in reply , exclaimed , — " Take him so , and may the Merciful Father forgive bim his sins . " The coffin was borne on the shoulders , of the nearest relatives of deceased to tbe high-road , where it was met by a concourse of persons , of both * sexes on foot and on horseback , reaching more than a mile in length . The melancholy procession ,

      proceeded to the burial-ground iu sullen and sulky silence , as if the vast _asseiablage was simultaneously struck dumb- —not a word was uttered , but deep and sullen grief sat brooding upon every counte _* nance , ag d , though the sun shone forthwith unusual splendour for the season of the year , its brilliancy was obscured by the impenetrable cloud of grief—I subsequently learned from Mrs . Mahony , that thi * was an evil omen , as the Irish have au old adage" Happy is the corpse that the rain rains on , " Happy is the bride that the sun shiaes on . "

      As soon as the venerable pastor had performed the funeral service , and when he and many others , myself amongst the number , had bedewed the green sod that covered the virtuous peasant ' s grave , we returned to the O'Donnell ' s- house , where we found the father silling by the : bedside of the delirious Kathleen . He appeared to lose all thought of hia own grief iu pity for her . As we entered the room she said , " Well , if Phelim is happy , why dont you laugh and smile ; " and the old man smiled a ghastly smile , that seemed to mock the large tears through which it forced Us way—then she-smiled and said , " May Kathleen kiss Phelimeen ' s red lips again _.

      and sure you wo ' nt let the troopers take him away . " She then fixed her large blue eyes upon us , for the first time , and gave a heart-rending shriek , when a female who stood at the bedside beckoned u » away , and assured her that we were not the trooper * aud were not come to take Phelimeen away . We left the hollse of mourning and wended our way to the home of the Priest , he appeared more composed , aud had scarcely cmered the house when he waa hurried off to numerous" sick _calli . " When 1 waa alone with my friend Mrs . Mahony , 1 asked her what the O'Donnell meant by thc term , " justice for his son ' s blood , '' when he had no hope from , a Jurv of his country ?

      " Why , come here , " gays she , _shuttiu g the door and placing her linger upon her lips , to enjoin me to secrecy *— " There ' il be a jury of ihe O'Donnell * to night , at my brother ' s house , as he ' s an O'Donnell and the next of kin to the poor boy that ' s gone , but for your life don ' t breathe a word ol it to mortal man . My brother is outside now , anil them ibat sent for the Priest is the kinsmen and reiatious of the O'Donnells , that ' s going to make their a . wis / that'll make the jury to see who si . ail shout the murderer . " " Well but , ''I _oldened , " will Mr . O ' Farrell permit them ? ¦• Ogh , ' she replied , "God love you- heart , they'll never dare tell hun . but it ' s a customary thing to mawe confession this season of the vear . ' "

      _A-ter a moment ' s thought , 1 as _.-ieJ anxii . usly if the dame could procure me _udmiasi _';( i io her bro « tiler ' s nouse upou the occasion ? Site hesitated for a moment , aud then replied " Well _iiow , stay a bit , anil I'll sp _^ ak to my brother and as you ' re a friend uf the good -nun ui the house may be he ' ue let you go , but then you must be bid . " " I agree to any terms , " I answered . Sue kit the room , and in a few minutes returned ami _iniui'iuud

      me , that I must go now wiih her broliie-i' ami be bid in a liuie chamber inside where ihe jury would sit , and ihe ' Ue tell the priest that 1 went to see _O'Do'iiie ' il , and nuybe but 1 n . _L-ht su up with bim all ni lu . Thi * plan *> uiied admirably , ami 1 started without delay with my guide . Being a friend ol" ths priest ' s , ami highly recouimemle by the ftaticiiug commemiatio'i of _iirs . Muhoney , my guide showed no reserve whatever . 1 asked him , " V \ hat the cureuiunv 1 was going to witness resembled ?"

      lie said " that all tha mood relations ot the deceased would get _« ord before nightfall to meet at his house , as he was first cousin to O'Donnell , that was all them that wasn ' t married or hadn ' t tutui ics , and that theyMe uaiae a jud _^ u and jury that should hear the whole case , whether _lise-oisetl came by his death lawfully or not , aud whether he owed the money he was asked for ; or it ' he foreswore hiruseii by denying it as a means of ciicating hii accuser ; and whether those that took his ale took it in defence of their own , or killed him 'wtiiuut just cause . ' ' " Well , " I observed , " sup using that he may be more reasonable than the outr _.-igcel father , wouiuu ' t it be more iirudciit to try the law lirst . "

      " No , " he replied , " the law would go by the oath of tbem tUt a Protestant jnii _^ e ana a _froienuut jury would believe again all tke Papists and priests in the county , the _Lorei save us ! ami sure you might a * , _weli think of carrying the mountain o _.-i your hack as to iliink of getting a jury such as he'd have ( fur sure , his _nt'onie--. _Gi-ulj . is uii . ieraheriff ) to find him guilty ; ami liieii . ii h _.- * was acquitted—as he would be —« e di _. eu * . _ii _. eeUlie with him after .

THE NATIOHAL LANDJND LABOUR BAIL Recklessness , want of economy , indifference of the doubtful future during the prosperous present , have ever been the most unanswerable charges brought by the wealthy , the wily , and the fortunate against the labouring classes . We are not prepared to defend this wholesale charge in tbe abstract , while we contend that the want of thriftiness evinced by the many is a consequence of our institutions , both commercial and political , being framed and altered from time to time for tbe convenience , security , and protection of _tk-e hasty made capital of the wealthy , rather than for the accHluuIated Barings of the daily labourer or slowly thriving shopkeeper .
