THE IRISH FOUCHE . What crime , what sin , can be charged to the account of the dishonoured dead that may not be copied into the indictment against his living prototype ; nay , how white the sins of the hired spy compared to the scarlet , abominations of the trusted traitor ! He locked Ireland in one fond embrace of national confidence , the young tendrils of longing childhood ( Wining around the brawny muscle of manhood , communicating a magnetic influence to the attenuated sinews of old age ; the smiles of maidenhood electrifying the glowing hearts of chivalrous Irishmen , whose test of sweetheart fitness was to Tie denoted by love of fatherland , and readiness to die for its freedom .
AH the names to conjure with were burnt upon the young hear t , and those who had bled and were banished for love of Ireland were held up as objects worthy of but the rude and vulgar scoff of rude and vulgar place-hunters , while the intractable living , who preferred retirement to dishonour , or sought a purer field than the contagious blight of patronage and profligacy for the exercise of their patriotism , vrere held up as Ireland ' s bitterest enemies , and worthy only of their country ' s scorn and contempt . Charl emont , Grattan , and Cloncurry , sleepers upon down , culled gently from beneath poor Erin ' s wing are names to conjure with ; while
Lawless , honest Lawless , for his misfor tunes gathered from his country ' s sufferings and devotion to her cause ; O'Gorman Mahon , whose yonng blood could not brook his tyrant's treachery ; and Henry Lambert , cut off by insolence in his training for freedom ' s race , are all , one and all , consigned to the black catalogue of Ireland ' s enemies . Davis would be allowed to sleep on in his unbroken , rest , undisturbed by the withering curses of those who have been prematurely hurried to the cold grave by obedience to the councils of the traitor who plundered them while living , and mocked them for their credulity when dead .
"BE JUST BEFORE YOU ARE GENEROUS , " IRISHMEN , and show your generosity by trampling over the unmarked graves of your young patriots , while you settle the Balance Sheet with the patriot Jew , who has sold your country , your confidence , your freedom , your generosity , your union , and your strength , for Saxon gold and strangerspatronage . , Go , you poor , pitiful , priceless mob of ingrates—ro to the counter of the nation , and be
stamped with your sterling value . Go to the stranger ' s door , unbare your withering muscle , show your pining offspring , the young blood and future hope of Ireland , to your Saxon vice-king , and ask your patriarchal Liberator [ salesman to set a price ( if coin mean enough can be found ) upon your priceless beads . Be branded on your foreheads as volunteers to die for fatherland , or perish in a contest with your-American families in the struggle for Saxon supremacy over American freedom .
Be branded first , then go to your stall and a » k your Liberator for whom , for what , you are to fight * then throw up your caps and shout loud , louder , louder Still , for Old Ireland and Repeal , the Queen , God bless her ! and the paternal government of base , brutal and bloody Whigs , and Sergeant Daly , and the handful of raw Irish recruih that shot Shell and the Saxons at Newport in the struggle for freemau ' s rights . ' , grin your moral force reproach over the naked unstonned grave of Lord Edward , and trample upon young Emraett ' s traitor tomb , where his mutilated body lies ; curse young
Harvey for his . rashness 111 Ireland 8 noble struggle , while you glean young courage from Ireland ' s moral force ' / PHALANX" of 73 , 348 vouchers of her patriot's valour , and pay your quota of £ 97 10 s . 9 d . the balance due to your figurative Liberator . Let us have the long jlist of victims relieved from the immense fund paid by confiding paupers ; a return of the grievances , public and private , that have been redressed out of the 73 , 348 vouchers for the national exchequer ; CHALK DOWN the number of obscene and drunken patriots that have revelled upon poor Erin's sweat , and tears , and sorrow . , ' , - '
Did we nrft tell you that the mission of the Liberator was as Cad to Ireland ' s present Saxon Viceroy , to break you up and throw the blame upon those who , though long time slavish , would not PUBLISH themselves as stores ? Were you not aware that the present Saxon Viceroy had been the Whig scullion for many years ,, and had the bestowal of scraps from the Whig platter us his perquisite ? Were you ignorant of what was sure to follow Russell ' s definition of the two parties who sought Repeal , qualifying
your Liberator for trust and patronage , and designating you as rebels ? Had you forgotten the many lamentations you had heard over the disunion of Irishmen , and did you ever know disunion so great and blasting , or ' caused on such , frivolous pretext , as that which is now tearing every heart , Mark , Irishmen , we have always told you that the abandonment of a cause by its leaders is ever followed by a recourse to arms by the deceived ; and now behold the truth of the saying— " O'Connell has sold you , and 0 st your confidence , and , as if by magic , every mar .

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF UNITED TRADES AND THE STAR . Prom the establishment , of ' tYie . Northern Star to the present day it has not only been . our study and desire to advance every movement made in behalf of the working classes , but we have further subjected ourselves even to outlawry , as will be seen , by the report of Sir Thos . Wilde's spiteful and vindictive—though short , charge to the special jury who tried the cause of O'Connell v . O'Connor . We have , debarred ourselves of aff chances of justice in the Courts of Jaw , whether tried for a political offence or called upon
to defend ourselves against personal charges , and all this we have brought upon ourselves by our Wide * viating advocacy of Labour ' s cause . Indeed , it would be difficult to show any single movement made upon behalf of the working classes that we have not been mainly instrumental in fostering until the giant strength made the giant independent of our further aid or forgetful of our past services . It has become almost a fashion to repudiate a nurse when the child can walk alone , and hence we presume it is , that some of onr friends neglect the opportunities that we are ever ready to afford in the publication of their proceedings , while . they would , invariably charge their own negligence to the account of our indifference . - /•; ¦ ¦
It is matter of no small importance with working men , to procure the meanest corner in an adverse journal for a nonpareil equivocal notice of their proceedings , while the omission of matter by .. the Star , of which we could have no knowledge , is turned into a grave and serious charge ; in fact , Labour and the Star are as man and wife , accustomed to the usual domestic civilities but occasionally administered with the usual conjugal coldness . Since the National Association of United Trades has acquired a sufficient amount of strength to make it dangerous to the monopoly and tyranny of the masters , it has been thought worthy of the notice , censure , and reprobation of the leading Journals , and especially the Times . In the several contests that we have
had with the press on behalf of the body , we have shewn neither indifference , or lack of disposition to defend it against its assailants . When the whole body of labour was threatened with the crushing Masters' and Servants' Bill , we not only chronicled the national mind from John O'Groafs to Land ' s End , ' but we roused universal indignation against the monster , and for which , until the battle was fought and won under our indomitable chief , we received resolutions of thanks from all parts of the country . In that struggle we gave untiring assistance to Mr . Duncombe , who is ever ready to acknowledge our services , and ' but for whom , aided by our poor assistance in gathering up ] the national indignation , our friends , the Trades , would now be as a rope of sand .
These services , however , are forgotten ; land it now appears that the National Association of United Trades lays the charge of indifference to their proceedings at our door . This is scarcely fair . TheTrades business of the Association is transacted at Bloomsbury , and the Star is printed in Great Windmillstreet ; no great distance between the Executive and publication ; while our invariable instructions have been to give insertion to aU their proceedings . At whose door , then ^ does the charge of neglect fairly lie ? With those who are ready to aid , or those who are too indolent to assist themselves ? If our columns were as exclusive and as hermetically seated against the complaints of the labouring classes as those of our contemporaries , some value would be attached
to our services . . We understand that complaints of suppressed or garbled reports of Trades proceedings have been made to the President ; and , in order to ascertain the fact * for himself , and to establish a cordial union between man and wife , that worthy and untiring officer did us the honour of a personal visit this morning ( Thursday ) , for an explanation , as well as to agree upon a proper understanding for the future ; and the result of Mr .

POLAND . THE " 22 nd OF .. FEBRUARt "~ THE MASSA-¦ ., ORES IN GALLICIA . ; : ' ¦ Is there not some chosen curse , Some hidden thunder in the stores of Heaven , Red with uncommon wrath to blast the crew , Who owo their greatness to a people ' s ruin ? " " We remarked last week on the causes which in * duced the failure of the ,- Revolution of 1830 ; and showed that the most influential of those causes was the ' . ' combined folly and knavery ¦ of the aristocratic leaders , who feared or opposed the raising of the Polish masses , who might have been rallied against Russia to a man , had the revolution been proclaimed a struggle "by all for all "—for political equality and social justice , as well as for national independence ;
I Misfortunes correct the errors of some men , but even defeat and exile but rarely make an impression for good upon ' princes ! and aristocrats ; and so with too many of the Polish emigration , who instead of acknowledging their past errors , and giving indisputevidence of the purity of their intentions for the fuiuire , have made themselves ridiculous by affecting to perpetuate tbeirdiplbmatic humbug ; at the same time electing a king for Poland ; that king too , the Czartoryski whose imbecility , if net criminality , so large contributed to the failure of the Revolution of 1830 . - :: ¦ - ' ¦ "• ¦ : h < - ¦ :. ; . ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ :. .. - .
Once for all , let us say we do riot declaim agains * any section of the Poles , because belonging to the aristocracy of birth and- station we blame them because , forgetful of the- lessons of the past , and Wind to the certainties of the future , they persist in a system of combined wrongs and error ; which , while it has been injurious to themselves , has been fatal to their country . 5 o far from blaming men simply for belong , pr'having belonged to the
aristocracy , we testify most heartily to the virtues of an immense nnrtjdn of the Polish " nobility . " Some of the most daring heroes and statesmanlike leaders have belonged to this body of the . ' Polish people . Not a few of the Democratic Society , and the roost tourted of the democratic leaders belong by birth to the " nobility ; " veritable nobles in heart and mind , in word and deed , these men justly march at the head of their party . That party is the last hope of Poland . . : :
From ihe ranks of this party has gone forth the doctrines which are fast innoculating the Polish muses with aspirations for true liberty , bid fair at no distant day to bring forth the fruit of a mass rising against Poland ' s , oppressors . From this party too has gone forth the daring propagators of democracy doctrines whose , heroism and sufferings may be illustrated by the mere mention of the name of Simon Konarski ; better known that most of his brother martyrs , though ' not . ' more worthy of mankind ' s admiration . — , . . - •' , ¦ ¦
Some of the results of the labours of these hero martyrs were seen when the insurrection burst out in Cracow , in February last . It was immediately proclaimed that the insurrection commenced was not for a national independence only , but for social justice— -for the freedom and equal rights of all Poles . This was declared in the celebrated Cracow Manifesto of the 22 nd of February . - We have not room to quote the entire Manifesto , but the following ex-—tract will suffice :
We are twenty millions , Let us rise as one man , and no force on earth can crush our power . We shall enjoy such liberty as never was known on earth . Let us conquer a state of society , in which every roan shall etijoy his share of the fruits of the earth according to his merits ( earnings ) and his capacity , jh which no ( exclusive ) , privilege ,, of any kind , whatever , will bo allowed to remain ; in which every Pole wiH find a Ml guarantee for himself , his wife and his children ; in which every man disabled by nature in the use of his bodily or mental functions , will find ,
without humiliation , the unfailing assistance of the whole social body ; a state in which those portions of land which hitherto have been merely in the conditional possession of their cultivators , will become their absolute property ; in which all bent ( white and black , according to the feudal acceptation of tbe term ) , soceage labour and other similar burdens , ( entailed upon these lands , ) will cease without any indemnity { to tbe landlords ) , and those who will devote themselves in arms t 6 the national cause , will be remunerated by a fcrant of land from the national do * mains .
This was the way to create a veritable revolution , to give to the people of Poland a cause " worth living for , worth dying for . " Had the words we have above , quoted from the Manifesto but once struck upon the can \ of tbe Polish youth , ere the tyrants had concerted their measures of defence , the volcano of national force would have been irrepressable ; but , alas . ' the tyrants were forewarned and forearmed ; their infernal measures were already perfected ere the toscin sounded at Cracow . There can be no doubt that the treacherous government of Louis-Philippe aided largely in putting the three despots on their guard . Was our own government altogether innocent of the like crime ? Would that we could believe so , but we remember the letteropening villainies , and blush for our country .
Throughout" Russian Poland " an overwhelming military force , and the seizure of hundreds , if not thousands of the suspected , sufficed to crush the conspiracy ere it could explode . ' POTOTCKI ,
FARSKI , DOBRIEZ , and K 0 ZIECHKZ 0 W 5 KI , at the moment they were about to unfold the banner of insurrection , were taken and immolated . In Posen , but another day , and the Russian yoke would have been cast from the necks of the gallant men already gathering for the combat ; but spies and traitors had not been employed in rain , that day that should have been the day of battle , saw Posen ' s chivalry surprised , disarmed , enchained ; they had
sighed for the tented field—or the grave , but their night ' s repose was in Prussian dungeons . And Austria ; cursed be her name : — " Exalted high abov 6 Ler vile compeers , And featering in the infamy of years ;" She has waded through innocent blood to her bad pre-eminence , and inexorable justice shall one day award her her doom ; " Crimson tears shall Row yet !"
This is not the place to write a history of the Gallician massacres ; with all possible brevity we must merely remind our readers of the facts . A large number Of the Gallician nobility , weary of Austrian tyranny , and having imbibed the principles of democracy , were eager to throw off the Austrian yoke , and were as resolved to make the movement national by turning their serfs into freeholders , and investing them with the rights of
citizens , In proof of the honesty of their intentions , we sliould state that for many years previous they had done all that Austria would allow them to do towards improving the condition of the peasantry , whereas , on the other hand , the Austrian government had continually thwarted all their schemes of amelioration . This was in strict accordance with the policy rf Austria , which every where maintains her sway 6 y setting class against class , and race against race * When , tbejejosg , the wwiection in Gallic ^ was

placed under the leadership of the notorious Szela , a miscreant who had been condemned to imprisonment for setting fire to his . own father ' s house , and committing an unutterable crime on the person of a child;—the work of these wretches was to murder all persons -suspected of patriotism ? As a / father encouragement , brandy was freely distributed , and a price set upon the heads of the suspected . These inducements of course augmented the number of the assassins . Then commenced acts of terror , far . exceeding in horror the worst scenes in . the French Revolution . Not only the nobles , but their wives children , servants , and even a number of the peasants were remorselessly sacrificed . Common
murcsrnate viljainny ' could , inven ^ f were devised to ensure the destruction of ttie patriots . The agents of the Austrian government promulgated the most tin - cious caluniihies amongst the < peasantry , assuring them in some places , that the nobles wanted- to augment the number of working' days to six in each . Weeki in other places , that the nobief were intend " ing to , mmenihe peasantsri Bat mere calumnies would have failed to ensure the object desired—the destruction of the nobles . Asystem of proscription and assassination was therefore organised . Convicted felons were liberated from Austrian 'jails , 'and these assisted by disguised soldiers and spies , were _
der was too merciful , and for once the perpetrators of the St . Bartholomew ' massacre were excelled in cruelty . For some particulars of the infernal tortures to which the . asassins subjected their victims , we refer the reader to the list helow . These assassinations were perpetrated by order of the ' Austrian government , paid for by Austrian money , and di « rected by Austrian officers . Lastly ,: the Austrian Emperor , in a special proclamation recorded bis thanks to the assassins , and conferred rewards upon the prefects of Tarnow , Bochnia , Przemysl , Iaslo , Wadowritz , and Saudetche , . who had commanded the murders , and paid the murderers the offered price for their victims . .
It has been pretended ! by the vile German press , that the Gallician massacres were voluntarily performed by ttie peasantry to revenge themselves for the tyranny of the nobles . But this is an unmitigated falsehood , as is sufficiently evident from the fact that the nobles principally devoted to slaughter were men who were exceedingly popular amongst their own tenantry , for their benevolence and hnrrianity Moreover it is well known that the nobles were not murdered by their own . peasants , but by bands of hired ruffians who came from a distance ' ; and in . some instances where the peasantry bad warning of the approach of the assassins , they were enabled to Successfully defend the locality from their assault . No , the Polish people have uot sullied their fair name by such a crime ; to Austria belongs the * undivided infamy of these atrocities . Here is a

THE JUST JUDGE . By the ghost of Jenkins ( Chief Justice Wilde will understand us , and perhaps tremble . at . the name ) we were not prepared to expect such a compliment as the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas hasconferred upon Mr . Feargus O'Connor . We have received the written assurance of a professional gen-, tleman , that , in the case of . O'Connell against O ' Connor , the summing up . of the Judge Was "PARTIAL AND BITTER '' in the extreme ; while , not satisfied with having secured the largest amount of damages that the circumsfances , or even the law , warranted , '' the Chief Justice certified for the costs of a special jury , declaring that it was a very fit case for a special jurv . '
Of late the Times has amused us with some very capricious notions . relative to the inconsistency of Judges , while we : have been . always taught , from our reverence of justice , to look to the Bench as an unerring thing . The Judges have been lauded for their non-interference jn . speculation . and party squabbles , while the license that they not unfrequently take with the rights and liberties of the subject havebeen allowed f fo pass unnoticed from abslief in their infallibility . Now , if there is one office more th 3 n another which rea . uires the entire confidence of every class , and every branch of society , it is that of Judge ; and so' great is the
responsibility , that , if indifferent as" to OH other ap-Pointments , Government should be jealous upon this head . - A Judge U the trustee of the Constitution , and should be the unbiassed advocate of Justice . A judge should be ' selected for . the purity of his jife , his character , and his conduct ; as it would be a mockery of justice to see the convicted felon sitting Upon the judgment seat , i Justice coming from such a man would be polluted in its source , and carry contagion in its progress . : But we hold pur pen ; we ' owe a duty to the public , which can he best performed by being at large and in possession of our liberty .. ¦ ' ¦" . •'¦ . •
