      " AnoSier important result follows in the tain of this movement—The large body of Irish banded together iy this-common bond of Bepeal in all parts of ths « ouBtry , eootroul so large a number of rotes that so public man—no leading politician—no candidate for the Presidency , either can or win oppose them , without fmynrrey Ibe destmefion of all his public prospects .

      THIRD -KIGHI—WJSDNESDAT . " The txcitement increases as the subject is discussed The short reports in the morning papers have filled the public mind with the utmost degree of excitement Nothing is talked of but Ireland—nothing written about by the editors but Ireland . The party differeices about local politics teem all to have given place to this one absorbing question , — shall we' let England master all tt »« tiV '"^ ! * It became known / in the course Of file day , tirat Governor Seward would { preside , and at an early hoar the room was literally packed with human beings .

      FOURTH 5 ICHT—THURSDAY , " The excitement grows as each new revolntion -of the public mind flings ont its burning particles of indignation . The evident object of England being to aeizs on the possessions « f all those who are not strong enough to resist her concentrated arms , has aroused the quietest and dullest of our citizens to a >* sense of her injustice , and a spirit of resistance . The daily press now aeiset on the question , and from end to end of this great Bepublie the word is gona forth—DOWN WITH THB ARISTOCRACY OF ENGLANJDJ The room in Washington Hall was again crowded to ihe outer doors . The platform-rwas again i thronged by the wealthiest of our dtitena- ^ maay , whose names we have given in out previous nfe - In- ; addition to these were present last mghsTEe venerable Thomas O'C » nnor , Mr .

We noticed several strasgers on the platform , who took a very svident interest in She proceedings . The chair was takes on motion , by John Mullen , Esq . . Mr . Bergen and Mr . Langton were at their posts , as well as the efiklent secretary , Mr . B . O'Connor . The first business ef the evening was She receipt of money , and without any appeal to the feelings of those present ; the friends

      of Ireland thronged around the tahle , and j commenced their pitriotie deposits for the support of Ireland's cause . Many of those deposits were put in on various conditions—some for the purpose of buying powderothers for the purpose of buying steel ? The . treasurer , feowever , took all the money with the determination of sending it to the Btpeal Association in Ireland . We raw men give their five dollars , which was probably the result of a whole week's earnings ; we give the amounts in another place . '

" The day opened beauteously over the city on which the citizens of the commercial centre of oar country assembled to testify their respect for the Chief Magistrate of ihe United States . The atmosphere was balmy as a morning in spring . Not a cloud appeared to threaten with a less brilliant dose , the magnificence of the arrangements for the day . All was in keeping with the important and patriotic duty which our citizens were about to discharge . '

      "At sn early hour the streets were thronged with busy crowds . The sounds of fifes and drums , the roar of jnuiketry met the ear from every quarter , and from every housetop floated to the brecza soma national emblem , e ? some appropriately devised banner . The flag-of old Erin was seen conspicuously in front of the Bepealers head quarters , Washington HaU , drawa across Broadway , and gave joy- to many a bosem passing beneath its ample folds , as the consideration ! arose of her present position , and of the idle threats of terrified British ministers ; all felt that it-was foretold ithat the day was sear on which a long insulted people would raise it as their national ensign , -amid the rejoicings and plaudit * of the civilised world . The Bepealera of the city had been invited 3 > y th > dvH authorities , to participate in the preparations

      made torecetve the President ; and the post of honour , aB ^ his escort , had -beenassigned to them . In retarn , the Bepealers had determined that nothing should be left undone , which cosld add iuterert or splendbui to the scene in which they were to bold aodBonlpicnoai a place ; for many days a committee of amngements had been labouring to introduce snch aew features into the procession , as would cause it to be remembered when others of like character in which Qua had taken no great interest abeald be forgotten .-At twelve at soon , about erne tbxmsand J 3 ve hundred Repealen mennted on hones of n&eqoalted beau » ana great lmironnltjr , atscmbled at the Bowling Green .: Each horse was decked out with , green ribboia , and the riders wore .

      priately dressed men that we ever before saw assembled together on a like occasion . They took lice in the procession headed by their efficient Marshal and devoted Bapealei , James Bergen , Esq ., accompanied \ by that prices of good fellows , and warm-hearted Irishman , his aid ; Lawrence Langton , Esq ., who drew up a eorfs of Bepealera on foot , numbering , at ledst , &v « thousand , eaotr wearing the Repeal badge s the latter ¦ were preceded by-beautiful banners , and a magnlucent barouche ( which , on the following two days , was need by-the President of the . "United States ) with fou ^

      elegant and " spirited grey , chargers , the trappings of whieh were covered entirely with green * this contained some of tha exiled . patriots of , 'fl 8 , and two youths bearing banners , r 9 m . which -were tMteful allnsionfl to the struggle of . these States and of Ireland for , liberty from the unjust and oppressive laws of the same heartless tyrant ; following this barouche were many carriages containing ! the Executive Committee , the Treasurer , and . Secretary of the Repeal Association ; then came four others , in , which were the membeis of the Committee of Arrangements for the day .

      •* The whole of the procession , some four miles , was crowded iw | th jciti 29 ns wearing the ^ Repeal badge , and on all sides could be discovered some , distinct mark of tbe kindly ] feeling of < m > citizens fox tbe legislative regeneration of unhappy Ireland . As the horsemen passed ! the monuments erected to the memory of those illustrious Irishmen , Montgomery ana Thomas Addis Emmet , In St . Paul's church-yard , the "band hatted , and they and the long line ef Repealers faced towards the tombs , with heads ' uncovered , and stood in silence while the baud played a dirge . The idea "was a poetic and a beautiful one , and was carried into effect with every evidence that ifc was sincerely appreciated by the Repealers . I It took the immense concourse which thronged the square by Eurprise . and many a heart beat with admiration for the warm impulses of that portion ol our citizens , who so handsomely exhibited the respect'they bore the cherished memories of the dead . J

      " The head-quarters was greeted with , rapturous cheers—the great room of the Hall vras thronged ^ ith ladies and invited guests of the committee , and from the windows "were displayed the waving handkerchiefs of the fairest daughters of our citizens . After having been reviewed by the President , the immense and delighted procession separated without having en * countered , during the day ' s parade , any thing to cause an uncomfortable reflection . There never has been , in these States , so magnificent and creditable a display on the part of our Irish adopted eitlzans ; and there never was a period at which some similar exhibition of respect for the Institutions anel chief officers of our country was more needed than it now is . From some

      fewweak and contemptible presses do we hear it declared that they consider it impolitic to take any part with -suffering Ireland as American citizens . We ask such miserable « owards , base cringers to tbe Tory principles ; we ask those who ever are and ever will be the secret traitors to this country , to tell us , what portion of the citizens of New York did most on Monday lost , to show that they understood what was their duty as American citizins ? We pause for a reply . , We will ring it again and again in the ears of such men , that the Repealers of New York ) did themselves moie credit in ihe late reception , find ; escorting of the President of the United States than any other association , no matter for what purpose organizad , In the whole of the route through which he passed . "

      In addition to the exciting and enthusiastic manifestations of " sympathy" on the part of the Americans already detailed , a large out-door meeting was holden on Wednesday , June 14 th , which tbe Truth Teller describes as "the greatest assemblage of human beipga ever gathered together at one time in New York . ' * W « subjoin an epitome of the proceedings , directing especial attention to the address adopted to the French people . It is time that the English people ascertained the whole beatings of this ' * ' Repeal" question : —

      THE MASS MEETING IN THE PARK . "The greatest assemblage of human beings ever gathered together in New York , for any purpose , Was that which met last evening at tbe Park , to sympathise with Ireland ; At the lowest computation made , they numbered Thirty Thousand , whilst some rated it at Fifty Thousand . At half-past six , the Committee , followed by a . large number ef gentlemeD , made their way amongst the 1 dense masses to the temporary stand erected In front of the City Hall . The large flight of ascending Bteps served for the distant crowd to stand on . The most excellent arrangements were made for tbe press , and we are sure that every paper in the city was represented there . "On the motion of tbe Hon . John M'Keon , the Honourable Minthorne Tomkins was called upon te preside . "

      "The meeting being called to order thefollowing resolutions were ' moved by Edmund S . Kerry , Esq ., and their adaption moved by the Hon . J . M'Keon , in a powerful speech . " Whereas , the Tory Ministry of Great Britain have promulgated ^ solemn declaration that justice shall never be accorded to Ireland , and threaten , that if Irishmen persist in praying for it , they shall be silenced by the bayonet . - ' " Re&olved , That the friends of Ireland in New York regard , such declaration and threat with mingled feelings of indignation and horror .

      "Resolved , As the love of justice Is a natural and irrepressible instinct in tbe bosom of every Irishman , we see is this language of the Ministry no alternative but carnage and dessolation , unless that Ministry relent or are driven from their purpose ; for 8 , 000 , 000 of Irishmen , cheered on by the friends of liberty , justice , and humanity thoughout the civilised world , cannot be still under misrule and oppression , and like a horde of Imbecile eastern slaves , studiously forbear from molesting their tyrants even by a remonstrance . " Resolved , That the Government of Great Britain has ever evinced , both in its domestic and foreign policy , a rapacious ami cruel disregard of the right * and interest * of tb * people ; that it is a political moosteTi useful only to a class of- edwpMratively inngnificant numbers , covered with tbe plunder , and stained with the blood of unoffending nations ; and that , however great our indignation , we feel no surprise at its threatened course towards Ireland .

      " And whereas , although nothing can be hoped from the moral sense of such a Government ; yet , inasmuch as the Bngliahj people , if properly awakened to tbe necessity of enforcing it , have the power to do so ; and inasmuch as that people are brave , liberal and juat , therefore , . ' ' , " Resolved , As the sense of this meeting , that tbe sympathy of nations properly expressed for Ireland is well calculated j to arouse tbis dormant power , and affords the best ! and most effectual means of averting the calamities of civil war , and ultimately obtaining for Ireland the restoration of her own Legislature .

      " Resolved , That under these circumstances , we deem it a moral duty of every inhabitant of the United States , of Irish } birth or Irish descent , and highly praiseworthy and becoming in every citfZ 9 h thereof , to contribute his ' voice influence and pecuniary aid , to strengthen the hands of that band of Irish patriots , who with Mr .

It is not enough , however , we believe , that Irishmen

      should have asserted , unanlraou 6 ly , the equity of their claim to be governed euly by laws enacted by their own representatives . We are solicitous , that the opinion of the most enlightened nations should give additional weight to their own opinions .

We entreat your ! sympathies for the wrongs of their descendants , recalling to your memory the joyous acclaims with which Irishmen , whether at home or wandering in Exile , have ever hailed your triumphs —the deep aerrow they have ever felt In the days of yonv adversities . The generous j compassion yon avowed for

      Greece ; that which every year your representatives express for the P « les ; Fienchmen ! we ask them now for Ireland ! for Ireland more ; oppressed than Greece , suffering under wrongs even more unmerited than those of heroic Poland . We cannot address individually every Frenchman made illustrious by arms , by science , by poesy , by arts—we single out only such names as fame has made familiar even to ua unlearned mechanics and farmers . We implore Gnateautmand to embrace the causa , of a people breathing : the very spirit and genius of Christianity—rW « pray Lamutine to make the euffer .-lngsof Ireland the theme of some other angel inspired meditations—we entreat Victor Hugo to awake for martyred Erin , lovely and ouiltles , like his own

      Esmeralda , —and like her too ,: remorselessly tortured—by tyranny and relentless intolerance , —that deep pity far real miseries which the -weii-d accords of his Xyre bave so often inspired for fictitious sorrow * . We call oa Berangerto sing again , —( his silence too , when freedom shrieks ; is a pnblic calamity!)—not those notes of mirthful glee which in the wild days of his youth , gladdened France ; but those mournful strains he modulated jwhen Napoleon fell , betrayed by Fortune—when a generous nature groaned under the sway of foreign invaders . We implore Arago to avert his eyes from tbeetberial regions where all they dwell upon la harmony and beauteous order , and to view , for a moment , a

      spot on this globe made lovely by nature but rendered hideous by tne man-inflicted wretchedness of its inhabitants .

      " This is the resolve of the Repealers of America 1 and they ha . ve the power to put it into execution at every port ef this great Continent . Let Ireland be atxicken by a single hostile shot—let any of her sanctified clergy or her indomitable champion O'CouneU , be arrested in their ] peaceful agitation , then would tbe 260 , 000 Irishmen in London , the 80 , 000 Irishmen in Manchester , the 00 , 000 Irishmen in Liverpool , the 80 , 000 Irishmen in Glasgow , be called upon by the voice of nature and country to retaliate J And what have they not in their hands to accomplish ? Have they not power to destroy the commercial power of England by a Hinmltcneous burst . Aye , the whole of hex manufacturing piles could be given to the flames ina single night I land would be given ,: were the bloodhounds of Toryism let loose on the people of Irelani . "Thank heaven ! the people ef Ireland have outgrown their manacles—have established a foreign policy sufficient to ! check the foe and even subdue bis power , if that be necessary to their freedom and

      happiness . ! " France , the old and natural enemy of England—France the old and natural friend of Ireland—will be again , In the day ! of trial , on the side of virtue and Erin . But the people of Ireland are a match even as they Btand for the Feelites . Subtracting from the eight and a half to nine ] millions , which compose the population , tbe 500 , 00 ffi Episcopal Protestants who are 8 Upposed to be so wedded to tbe Established Church , that they would even fight to uphold the corrupt mass ; subtracting these , we bay , from the population of Ireland , there yet remain eight millions , whose interest Clearly is the well-being land happiness of Ireland . Hew is this power to be dealt with ? They are sober , unted , and disciplined . They are led to the fields of meeting

      even now , by their | Clergy , and led back and dismissed with military precision . ! They are instructed from the altar of God , on ttie duties they owe him—and from the same sacred tribunal , and by the same consecrated lips , they ate leetured ou the duties they owe to liberty and their native land t What force has Peel to smother this combination of spiritual , moral , and physical power ? The sabre ! Ah ! the pike would confuse as truly as tbe sabie i Let Peel remember the battles of Wexford , Eoniacorthy and Vinegar HilL Let him remember ' the Castlepar Races' ana Balilnamuck I The pike did all in those places 1 and ] though by his Arms Bill and his police he hath disarmed the Irish people , we tell him even from this , tb at a million of steel pikes could be manufactured and sent to Ireland in two- weeks

      from tbe first hostile movement be may make . When the French landed ! in Killala , in 1798 , to aid the patriots , they distributed muskets amongst the peasantry—but the peasantry soon flung them away , and rushed to the charge with their favourite weapon , the pike ; and history tells how they made General Lake and 20 , 000 regulars fly before them ! Every nation has its favourite , weapon . The pike ( gallheen ) is the favourite weapon of the Irish . Every parish smiddy knows bow to make it—every peasant knows haw te use it i , A million of pikes could be . manufactured in a month , in Ireland : [ so in physicals Sir Robert would not have it all his own way . ' < Again , what may tbe force be that the Tories could bring ? The ninety for one hundred thousand military which they call the ' Queen ' s troops' axe one half at least Irishmen , and Catholics—and is it too much to add—ate Repealers . Does the history of despots

      furnish no instance of volunteers from their seared slaves rushing to the standard of liberty ? Ay , many I And are we to be told that the army of Ireland contains no Marshal Neys ? no Mebemet Ali ?? Forbid the thought , Goddess of [ sacred Liberty 1 Then where are those troops of the Queen ? Not twenty thousand are to be found in all Ireland , England , and Scotland . The balance are distributed over all parts of the earth , where they are wanted , to uphold the blood-stained Sag of Britain . Not a thousand , men can ba spared from all the Queen ' s possessions abroad . Sir Robert cannot attack Ireland with a foice less than 200 , 000 armed and disciplined men . ] These cannot be armed and disciplined by a magical invincible process . We must see and hear tbe thing . JAud the moment we do see and hear it , why , then we may possibly put tha Irish people in possession of | a counter-force of which the following is just a slight specimen :

      "' James Bergen , | of New York , ib authorised to pledge the j ^ rutb . and ] honour of a distinguished American practical engineer and protechnist , whose name is known te some members of the Executive Committee of tha United Irioh Repeal Association , but who for obvioua reasoaa would at present remain unknown ' , that he 1 b tbe inventor anil sole possessor of a new destructive projectile , by which he is able ,, with tbe greatest secresy , accuracy * and , certainty to destroy , at one shock , any edifice in England , or any ship upon the Irish coast ; and that { upon the instant when it shall be known that British steel has , on Irish soil , drawn Irish blood , he will , as an American hater of despotism , take the necessary raeasurea to place tbis power at the disposal of Daniel O'Connell and the Irish people . ' ¦•

      " 'He also declares , his willingness to assist in fortifying the Harbours of Ireland upon this new , cheap ; and terribly effective plan ; and having tried it , be can convince even the chance victor of Waterloo , ( bat the combined Navy of England could not enter Cork Harbour without the certainty of destruction to every ship and to every man . He ja ready to go to-morrow , and asks no man ' s aid in this enterprise . ' , " Now , who Is ' James Bergen' ? We will tell Sir Robert that be is a relative of Bishop Higgins , and the Grand Marshal of the Repealers of the City of New York ! " Sir Robert will Ipercelve that the Repealers of America are armed at all peints . And as we have taken tbe trou . le to send him a copy of this paper , and have sent another to Prince Albert , the Government of England will see their way pretty distinctly we guess , by the spectacles which wo furnish them with to-day .

      " We are not leagued together here for tbe injury of the English nation . We believe the English nation , as distinguished from kbe aristocracy , are strongly in favour of restoring the , Parliamentary power of Ireland . This is attested by Mr . Mooney in his judicious address on the ' Fourth Night . ' The great body of the people of England have already declared unequivocally for Repeal . And the great body of the people of England are as tired of Tory and Whig rule as the people of Ireland . Sir Robert then will bave to carrv

      the war into Birmingham , Leeds , and Manchester , as well as into Dublin , Kilkenny , and Limerick . << The . Funds and the ! Factories—the Rents and the Tylhes—the places and . the pensions—the possessions abroad aud the monopolies at home are at stake on the one side , and the resolute millions of England and Ireland are prepared on the . other side to risk their lives on the issue J , " Will the Queen , the judicious , humane Victoria , risk the blood of all her people to gratify tbe blood-tliirsty disposition of those very Tories , who threatened to force her to abdicate her throne , not three short years

      ago ? " Will sha , who when : a girl , had the courage to dismiss Peel and Wellington when they only threatened to deprive her of j her bed chamber , now that abe is a woman and a mother , halt in her obvious duty to her throne and dignity ? bow when Peel threatens to plunge her people into the horrors of Civil War ? We opine not . \ Courage then people of Ireland . Arise , in tbe majesty of your united millions , from the centre to tbej extremities of Ireland—and demand your natural rights . Do this With the delicacy and precision ef disciplined men . Resort to no violence of any sort in your constitutional struggle with Peel . Be as inoffensive as children . Avoid all secret councils . The Repealers of America wiil send no

      secret emissaries amongst you . Whatever they deem best for your interest they will do openly . Do not suffer yourselves to be trepanned into any secret society of any sort . Follow the advice of your patriotic clergy ; and when ever that sanctified body call you into the field in defence of your libetlesf , the people of America will openly arm in your support There is no force in America than c » n or wUl stop them In their determination . Every American—every man , woman , and child of this great Republic , is thoroughly convinced < jf tbe piratical disposition of England ^ of her design , to acquire universal sway ! In all parts of this vast

      Republio areto be found expatriated Englishmen—the victims bt the persecution * directed-against the ' Chartisfcs . These men burn for an opportmr | tyjto be avenged on the aristocracy of England . That opportunity will be furnished by Sir RobertJ the moment he attempts to put hia threat iuto execution .
