The consequences arising from this dauge ^ m practice , are not confined to its pure physical resalt but branch to moral ones ; leading the excited d ^ yiating mind into a fertile field of seducive error — into agradual but total degradation of manhood—into

      DUfiLXN . —The Irish Universal Suffrage Associa tion met on Sunday , Mr . Woodward in the chair . The minutes and objects having been read , Mr Dyoit alluded to the personal attack made Ijy Mr . O'Connell on him At the Corn Exchange , on Menday last ; be , however , cared little for being called a " miscreant , " "When that epithet had been bestowed on the immortal William Cobbett himself , by the loul-monthed " pecnlatirg delnder of the Irish people . ( Hear , and cheers ) He -would reply , and retort too , however , in the Pioneer forthcoming . Mr . O'Connell should find there ¦ wer e some Irishmen -whose characters were manlj enough to bid defiance to dictatorship , and fling back upon Mm the filthy vituperations and lying calumnies in -which he habitually indulged . —{ cheers . } Mr .

      O'Connell ( not Dan ) said that , a more modest man , possessing equal abilities with Mr . X > yott , he had never known—( hear )—and as a Roman Catholic , he -was most happy to add , that-whatever Mi Dyott' s religious santiments were , for which it appeared he had incurred the ready denunciation of his ( Mr . O'ConneU ' sj great namesake , he knew his moral conduct to be most strict , honest , and conscientious —( hear )—and be never yet heard from one in that room or in private , one observation of an illiberal or sectarian character . — jHear . ) Surely , Mr . O'Connell could not call himself the friend of Civil and Religious liberty , while he assailed any man for his peculiarity of belief er disbeliet—( Hear , hear . ) He always considered that Mr . O'Connell was "willing to leave such matters between a

      man s conscience and his God . —iHear , hear . ) After a mostjrapld exhibition of the wretched state of tbo people , ground downby oligarchical oppression , and a most logical ecpose of the justice of their claims as pnt f orirard in the Charter , Mr . CConneH resumed his seat amidst much cheering . A Mr . Denny who has lately joined the association , but who does not sesm to understand f nUy its principles , Bpoke at considerable length on the possibility of procuring repeal for the Irish , amply through their own exertions , withont English sympathy or assistance . He raked -up all the old stories of English oppression and Irish suffering — imputing every evil which Ireland had endured at the hands ef the feudal aristocracy to the entire English people . He enumerated two or three instances of i

      nglish jealeusy of his countrymen , and wound up rather laughably by stating that there was a man behind him who had been refused admission into the Horse 4 juards , simply because he was -an Irishman ! Mr . Moran combated the statements of Mt Denny . He had been in England , and never experienced greater frihdntaT at the >» fnri « of any men than be had from those who were designated Saxons , by that band of infuriate mercenary demagogues who lived upon the dissensions which they so artfully fomented—( hear ) . The "workmg . men should make common cause all over the empire . The common foe was class legislation , and

      they were not their friends who forbad their fraternization —( bear and cheers ) . Mr . Dyott moved , and Mr . Jasper T 5 Uiers Powler seconded the following motion Hesolved—That the fhnnVii of this Association are eminently doe , and are hereby sincerely given to the honest men of Anderton and Tolcross who elected our worthy president Mr . O'Higgins to the honourable post of their representative at the late Birmingham Conference , the Irish Universal Suffrage Association having been only prevented from sending him as their own delegate by the jealous operation of the tyrannical Canvention Act . Mr . W . Mahon made somB observations in support of this motion , and said the tradesmen of Dublin ¦

      were beginning to see through the desire of thosg who wished to keep them at enmity with their English and Scotch brethren . Mr . O'Higgjns said the honour conferred upon Ireland iy Mb selection for the chair after Mr . Sturge had retired at the Conference was sufficient evidence-of the spirit -which actuated the people of the raster country totrards Ireland—< hear ) . Chartism looked with contempt upon the silly jealousies of nafaonality , &t , by -which men were blinded to their real interests . Equal rights and laws all over the worldcivil and religions liberty to all—of whatever faith or even if of no iaith-that Was Chartism . The Tories
