      T ^ TsTrftTTP ; PROGRESS OB THE REPEAL MOVEMENT . DEMONSTRATION AT ATKLCKXE . On Sunday 3 ast , & onnonEtrafion in favour of the Movement to prosnre for Ireland & Parliament of ier own ,-was made at Athlone . ' Tne meeting took l ^ ace 5 b ike extenHve lawn facing Mr . Mnrpnj'e is ^ deneeirt Snmnierlall < three miles from Alhlone ) . Task numbers , headed by their clergymen , came irom ^ iistaat places . The-ground adjoining the platform -was occupied by a- dense body of friezeeoated : listeners , who -were packed ( to ase a simile efihelrotrn ) asdo 3 ely as "iernngs in a barreL " Outside -these Treie a number of horsemen , and about fifty or sixty private Tebiclea called " cars . " Scattered over the rest of tha field were several thousands more . A considerable portion of these ¦ were -women , 1 * 110 being for the most -part attired inJight-colonred gowns xndie ^ shawls , gave t © the scene rather an Imposing aspect .

      Mr . O'Gonnell arrived about ten © 'dock last night from " foiTiiq , and having slept at Mr . Murphy ' s , came into Aihloue ihia morning to hear mass , after which he repaired to an open pars of the town , called £ hB Scotch Parade , where he received from iheirades of Athlone an address of gratitude ^ for las giani straggles to restore their robbed Parilajjsent , and nl&ee Ireland "proudly amoBj ; &s nations Of Iha farfh . " Ml " . O'CsnnelL , & £ Aozapaiaed by Torn Steele , came from Athloce to Sommerhill , at the head of a procession of the trades , who -carried large banners , and were preceded « nd followed by

      bands of ranac Tbey did not arrive at the place of meeting until near three o ' clock . On the triumphal arch placed across the road , near the entrance to Sammeraul , was the following Inscriptioa : — " The jlsve-xaaster may brandish bos whip , but we are determined to be free . Beware ! Physical force i 3 a dangerous experiment to try upon the Irish people . Sepesi shall not be pnt ^ fown by tie bayonet . " There were two platforms—one for genri-snen . the other for ladies . On the former were inscribed . ** 6 od Fare ihe Qaeen . * ' ° A British Monarch , but an Irish Parliament- " "The man who commits a

      crifije gives strength to the enemy- " And on the latter , the declaration of the Algrning Chronicle , ihai * " a population d ! 9 , 000 , 000 is too great to be dragged at the tail of another cation . ** There were present at the meeting cowards of 100 Bomac Catholic clergymen . On thB motion of Mr . H . D . Bsowjib , M . P ., Lord Fk&skih took the chair , and on doing so said ihai he accepted with pleasure the high honour of presiding over an asembly distinguished , as was the present by every attribnte calculated t © give it immense iisportancs , and hallowed by the sacred canse in -which it was engaged . Wberewas the Irishman who would forego ins country for a commissioa of the peace—tebeers)—or find a counterpoise to her

      interests in official distinction ? ( Cheers . ) Arouspd by fiie great leader O'Cenneli —( cheers)—tbey wonla gladly doff off the liveiy of the Saxon rulers , and daa in the ample dress of Irishmen , they would bear to be divested of rank and consequence , whilst fliey looked forward to the joyous day of lreland ' 3 xesuirection-Hcheers . ) They were there that day to free their country from tbraldcm , and restore her to the dignity of a nation ; to shake off the yoke of alien injustice and oppression , and acquire what £ hey bad beforeftme possessed , and as free-born subjects -were entailed to—the blessings of self legislation . It was absurd to suppose that an Imperial Parliament would < Io them justice ; and they woald 310 "longer be deceived by premises to that effect .

      England bad never yet made concessions © F justice to the people of Ireland , except when they were extorted from her in her Bcments of weakness . Asd 5 f concessions were again exioned under similar circumstances , -what security was there that she ¦ would not psrndionsly tfbr her obaxaeter was inscribed in letters of blood with perfidy towards Ireland ) revoke those concessions , and renew their oppressions 1—( cheers . ) Is was tlear , then , that there was so remedy against English monopoly and oppression but a domestic legislature—no other remedy against the all-impovershing grievance of absenteeism , which drew from the country ; £ 9 , O 00 , O 00 a year to be squandered in foreign countries—no other means by which their country

      could be rescued from thai fright&l poverty and abject degradation to which she had been reduced by ihe cruel and oppressive mis-legislation of the united Parlismeit . As united Parliament was an Snsuliing mockery of representation to the neople of Ireland . * i 5 i&t enemies geught for civil war ; their objects beic ^ spoHation and ms ^ sacre , and to keep Ireland as ihe afcjact fil&ve of England . L ^ them violate do law , esmmit no crime , and obey the voice ef their lahferator , ac « i they " » ouid disappoint , baffle , and overcome those bloodthirsty enemies . tCheers . ) As for the large military force which had been sent into Ireland , they rejoiced at the event , as calculated to scatter 3 little money amongst them , which was very much wasting . { Cheers and laughteri ) They should not mistrust thoie brave soldiers .

      { Hear , hesr . ) In their . raiikE they beheld their relatives and friends , and should therefore receive ihem with kindness , cordiality , and frltiidship , Three cheers for the brave soldier ? . ( Loud ch « rs . and cries of Thevre -welcome , " & . C . ) How could England , wiih a defalcation of £ 3 . 000 . 000 in the Excatquer . feep np such a vast armament In Ireland . -He would say that she could do so , indeed , but for 3 very short time .. Tbe resolve of the li i * h people to keep within the constitution and violate no law demonstrated the absurdity of such a movement , and showed that its direct effect would bs to accelerate the Repeal ; while F . ngTish weakness w&oid continue to be their best security , until they succeeded in cb taming the fostering protection of a nafive Parliament . ( Cheers . ) fee

      _ Mr . D . Bkiitse , M . P ^ proposed first reso . u-1 aon , to ihe effect ** that the union was obtained by corrupt sud cruelmeans , and oujiht to be repealed . " Peel and "Wellington { groans ) bad by their vapid threats endeavoured to intimidate the people of Ireland , and check the progress of Repeal ; bat he ¦ wished they were there , and he would ghew them 500 # 00 fighting men—flond asd reiterated cheering ) —men of manly bearing and nresistable attitudepeaceful , moral , and sober , but determined constitutionally to Sepesi the LegislatiTe Union—resolved tobfcginlty of no indiscretion , to spill not a drop of blood —{ hear , hear)—to commit not a angle act againot the ordinances of society or toe laws of the-eonntry , but » t the same feme resolved to stand upon the threshold of the constitution and resist invasion .

      She Bon . Mr . FrsEXCH ( son of Lerd French ) in seconding the resolution , addressed the meeting at connderabl 3 length . H 3 considered it not only legal , bnt tbsir inherent righ * to assemble for the purposeiof jh . daonjng the Legislature to Bepeal the UrucD , widch had been foncd so oppressive to Ireland , and of meb . - * ast advantage to England . Notwithstanding the threats of their present rulers to crush the expression of public opinion-and keep from Ireland a native Parliaiseni , it was the finn determination of the people * to persevere constitntionally and energeficallT to obtain it—( cheers . ) They had Outgrown ihe tyranny of their oppressors—they had increased said mnlnplied until no chain could sur-Tound them . The * " masters could sot forge manacles as numerous s « saear unieEtered arms ; and they defied audacious Britain to awe their jaaniy souls ( loud cheering . )

      upon the Irish people . He was at Mallow when he received the newspaper containing that sentiment . It brought intelligence at the same time that the Ministry had made no House onj the preceding Thursday , being busily employed forging chains for Ireland . Knowing that the people of Ireland would violate no law , they-were threatened to have their throats cut by those Ssxou—he would not give them a bad name—bnt again he Bet them at defiance . ( Cheers . ) He had now the pleasure of informing the p ? ople of Ireland that those who had the hardihood to issue such threats had gone upon anether tack , thai of conciliation . If that meant a Repeal of the Union , be would be satisfied , bnt no conciliation would satisfy him short of a Parliament in

      College-green—( cheers . ) . Ministers had a great majority in Parliament , but they vrere not a bit the stronger for it . They were anxious to attack Ireland , but they would not , for it would cot be good for them while there were funds in the market . A man gave £ 35 for what was called £ 100 in ike funds . It was down to £ 92 now , and if they made wax unjustly upon Paddy , that which -waa -worth £ 92 to-day would not be worth £ 35 to-morrow . So much for the Tories , whom they set at defiance . As for Brougham , he was not worth talking of ; be was a despicable and a selfish monntebank —» man who betrayed his friends aHd fawned upon his enemies . He would allow them to groan him—r ( groans . ) Then came the Whigs , saying , that as tbi-y had already

      benefited Ireland , and kept her quieti the Queen had only to tarn out Sir Robert , and bring in Lord John . The Whigs had certainly promised ) much , and undertaken to do mnch ; butthe people placed a confidence in them which they did not deserve ; and he new told them that no change of that kind would drive the people of Ireland from ihei : r determination to have a Repeal of the Union —( cheers . ) He would put Whigs and Tories into a bsg , shako it well , toss ibtm cut , and from first talaat there ^ would be found no friend to Ireland amon ^ t them . Ireland had but one friend , and that was htJEelf— ( cheers . ) The Morning Chronicle , the organ of thefWiigs , said it was quite true that it might be useful to Ireland to have a separate Legislature of her own , but that it

      wenld not be useful to England , and that therefore they should not have it . Wonld they abandon their agiiaiioa for Repeal on that ground \— ( cries of " No . ") The same paper Eaid if the people continued their straggle , they were likoly to jcbtaiuall they wanted in the moment of England's weakness . He thanked the ChrorAcle for the hint . ] It contained a strong temptation to them to pray of an aftern oon " may England soon be weak that we mayicarry Repeal . " With regard to fixity of tenure , he should like to explain that by it be meant that no landlord . should be entitled to recover rent unless he made a lease of twenty one years at Iea 5 t . Ko lease , no rent—( cheers ) Then the poor man would not be afraid bf being turned out of bis cabin next May . It might be said

      1 hat the landlord would put too much rent in the lease . For ihat ho was cot withont 3 care . The Ordnance Survey had made a valuation of land , and he would not ailbi ? the rent to bs any higher than that valuation . If there was no Of dnanco Survey , he would giro ihe tenant the test required upon registering hi 3 vots—namely , what a Solvent tenant would give for the land . That would be tried by the assistant barrister , with an appeal to the judge of assize find a jary , who xrovld ascertain what wonld be the fair rent , and that rent the tenant would have to pay and no other . He was a landlord , and did not want to take away their right , but that they should perform their duties to the occupying tenants and not hunt them like wild beasts . In the county

      of Clare , a misbegotten fellow named Wyndham was turning out family after family . A number wtre now under notice to quit , and trembled for tbt-ir txislence . He gave some of tbera money 10 go to America . The miscreant J Were they pot Irish 1 Were not the graves of their ancestors ia Ireland i Was not Ireland their b ! rth-pl&ce , and thai of their children J And who would eay that I a Mtkie money to send them to America was a ¦ recompence for driving them from the band of their i fathers , from their altars , and their homes ?—( hear . ) j _ He wonld give power to every occupying tenant i who laid out money or labour in improvements , to I register those improvements in the ; Clerk of the i Crown ' s office every year ; 30 that when the

      twenty-: one years lease had expir ? d the landlord should 1 tot uo and and pav to the lenant in money the price i of hisinjT > rovei 3 ei 3 ts , or grant h > m a new lease of the ; farm . Taey might in that case build a better house i for their pig than tbey now lived in themselves . , These were the solid and lasting fruita he anticipated 1 from Repeal . In civilization Ireland exceeded every ' other eonmry on the is . ee of the globe . The virtue j of her daughters and the religion of ; her sons were of the highest order of civilaation ; and these he ; claimed for them . If their enemies attacked them , , he kne ^ who wouid have the worst of it . Why , I they were cnvugb to take them in their arms and throw them into the Shannon . Bnt he would carry R ? pe £ l ashe earned emancipation , withont violating j the law , committing an offence against morality , or i shedding ono drop of human blood . ' Would they

      j not meet him again , if he wanted them 1 ( Loud j cheera and cries of " Ye > . " ) He might want thorn i again ; but he did no : think England would be mad ! enough to refuse thciT d ^ niaud . She was the -weakest Power in the world at the present moment , by reason of the dissatisuction existing is Ireland , and if . she wanted strengih she had onJy to co jastice to t Ireland . After advising tie people to peace , and I recommending that no man in the Itepcal ranks < should ever return a Wow , but bring his assailant , 1 it he met with one , to the pet ' v sessions . The Hon . and Learned Gentkuseii concluded with a glowing , eulogy upon the beauties of the Shannon , which he wonnd up by saying a Saxou river was no more 1 to be compared than the wat-r of a dunghill to a ; living welL He retired amidst several rounds of ; enthusiastic applause .

      THE BUCiEK . About 500 persons sat down to dinner at seven o ' clock in a marquee creeled for the purpose in a l field adjoining ths town . JLoTd Ffrench was in the ; chair . On the doth being removed his Lordship , gave the u ? nal loyal toasts , and after thtm the " People , for whose good alone sovereigns reign , " i to which Mr . D . Browne , M . P ., responded . ' Letters of apology were read from Dr . M'H&le . 1 Tnam ; Dr . Wiggins , of Ardagh ; Dr . Cantwtll , of 4 Meath ; and Dr . Burke , attributing their absence to 1 professional duly or ill health , but not to any abatei ment in their enthusiasm for the Repeal .

      i " O'Connall and Repeal" being the next toast , : Mr . O'CoxsKii said that they bad met net to I advance a party , but to turn a province into a 1 nation , Jo make serfs freemoi , to give liberty to their fatherland , io strike eff the shackles of the slave ; and let man walk forth hi the majestic dignity oi ! his creation , eqnal wiih his fellow man , and equal ' te the management of all that belonged to human i beings , a-jd amou ^ ct those mighty [ concerns the ' national concern was the first atd greatest . It was . delii . b . Linl to address them on an occasion like the

      t present , ween tceir difficulties were vanishing , aad , when it had pleas-ed Providence to mix tiu : iGHy a j the councils of their enemies with the certainty of j strength in the csusa of Ireland . They had come s there to be free or uis . ( H < re the the company rose , waved their hau , srid chrered for some time . ) But he tbonght they might pnt dyiag out of , the question He always preferred ons living patriot to a dozen I dead ones—( laughter ) . He talked of ; dying in the fine frenzy of an oral or who sasr iha possibility of j an attack , and tbowud tho entnij thry were ready for ¦ them , but whose solid jndgaitnt convinced him there . wonld he no dying at all . They were not tho Jess ready for the contest ahunld it be forced upon them ; and

      every hour 1 aught him ihat there would be le ^ peril in it—fheur , bear . ) He believed they had bren bronght there by one great principle and one nnaidmous dtiermibaiion . He belicvt-d they had corns there one and all 10 sas— " Ireiand is a province , ana she shall be a na : k-r . " ( Here thecompaaj again rose , and tigered in aa tatiiusiafetic manner ) As fc-r the Ur .- *> n , n was nothing bnt a parchment Union . It ntv ? r was ¦ „ real Union ; but even if it were made of adamant , bc-ug ur just , they wc-alti rend it asunder—( cheers ) . Tije Hon . Gent . tmar then referred 10 the diiabiliti * & u ^ . Uer wli-eh the Roman Catholics laboured fr ^ m I 8 'X > to 1829 , during which time the mass of ihe LUh people , he tsjd , were in a state of practical ferrhude . Bat

They certainly put Some dcstrving men into office , and kept out some scoundrtit . which was stiil better—men , however , w ; o ^ -sre kamediately thrusi in when Peel ; became Minister . But even daring the Whig regime tLe bar-Ixia of the Union pressed heavily upon them . A tkadish cry was raised against them in England . The Tynes called the people of Ireland a filthy and rebellious multitude . It called their priests surrlieed ruffians aad sanguinary tyrants —( groans ) . Tniswas the language which was , day after day , employed towards Ireland , and ii was not employed p vain ! It inspired the English mind with an Hatred and an antipathy that lold trumbet-tODcned at tne iast

      Lord J . RusecU , in punier accents , admitted it . It was that bigotry and that bribery by which Ireland was now governed . What chance , then , had they of the least mifigatien of any of their grievances from an Englishr Parliament ! Even the small fragment of their rights -which they still poEsessed that Parliament was attempting to filch away . By the Poor Law three-fourths of the guardians were to be elective , but that was too much for Ireland , and one-fourth ex ojficio guardians had been turned into one-third . The number of ex effiew appointments had been augmented ^ and that was the Government ' s ameudment of the Poor Law . The people complained of the tyranny of the Poor Law Commissioners , and Lord Elliott ' s remedy was to double their power .

      What chance bad the Irish people of resisting it Some of his friends who had done themselves the high honour of attending in the Saxon Parliament divided , and mustered just eighteen against it , while 205 Englishmen , who did not hear the debate , came down from ! Bellamy ' s smoking-room , and threw out the only mitigation of the law that had been moved by a glorious majority of 187 . He was blamed for distinguishing between Englishmen and Irishmen . Mr . Ross , of Rosstrevor , said it was a foliy to make a distinction between Saxon and Celt . But who began the distinction 1 It was not he ( Mr . O'Connell ) . It was first made use of as an instrnment of tyranny . He himself heard Lyndhurst describe the Irish as aliens in blood , in language , and religion—He it who tho

      ^ groans . ) was began haul © ; but it nerer should end until Saxons governed England and Irishmen Ireland ; for , if a contest should take place between them ,- the ; would die before they yielded—( loud cheers . ) He would attend these multitudinous mef tings until all Ireland had spoken with him ; and then he would take his nsxJ step , recollecting always that the Union , in point of constitutional principle , was a nullity , and that Mr . Saurin , who was Attorney-General for twenty-two years , and Chief Justice Bvisbe had said so . Nothing had iaken away from the Queen the

      right of issuing writs . Sho required only a statesman to advise her to that step , and , as a matter of course , the Irish House of Commons would start into life . To obtain that end ho should have 300 of the gentry to meet him in Dublin , each with £ 100 from his own locality . The ensuing day he would request them to meet him at a public dinner ; and there was nothing to iprevent them from meeting again , and calling upon the Queen to issue her writs . Oh , they wouldjcarry repeal with the greatest facility , backed as he was by the millions , and supported as he wonld be by the gentry . ( Cheers . ) Mr . O'Counell concluded by proposing the health of

      Lord Ffbench , who briefly returned thanks , and proposed " -the Catholic Hierarchy of Ireland , " to which toast , TheRev . fMr . Dawson responded . Mr . O'Consell apologized for leaving the company early ( a quarter before ten o ' clock ) , having , he said , to be at tDerassocistion next day at one o ' clock . The Hen ; and Learned Gentleman then retired amidst the cheers of the assembly , who followed in about an hour after .

John O'Consell , M P ., announced , amid loud cheering , that tbe sum of £ 1 , 008 19 ^ . lOd . had been received from the county of Clare , and that a large sum was expected from the same quarter . From the county of Limerick £ 652 7 s . 6 d . had been received , being the product of the receat meeting at Murroe . The sums of £ 105 from Kilkenny and £ 74 from Ulster were ; also announced as having been sent to the Association , and a great number of members were proposed and admitted whose subscriptions were included in these sums .

      Soon after two o'clock Mr . O'Connell arrived at the Corn Exchange in a travelliug carriage and four , having posted up to town from AthJone , m order to attend the ¦ Association . He was received by ihe meeting with long continued cheering . The Hon Gentleman proceeded to congratulate the Association on theniajestic progress of the Repeal cause . Since he last saw them , ho bad attended several meetings of great magnitude—the last , in fact , always appeared to him to bo the greatest . He proeeeded to describe the meetings at Kilkenny , Mallow , and Athlone . The assertion of Lord Chancellor Sugden , that in these meetings there was an " inevitable tendency to outrage , " was met by the fact that at none of them was there used

      even an uacivil word by one person towards a : ; o her . The demeanour of the people was peaceful and loysl , but determined—( hear . ) It seemed almoet the result of magic that so many thousands could congregate without even the occurrence of an accidental injury ; in short , he would say that in the best managed assemblies of the nobility and gentry there vras no instance in which the regulations of civilized society were better observed . He had addressed 2 . 000 , 000 of persons at those meetings , and every individual , from the youngest to the oldest , was thoroughly convinced that any breach of tho peace , assault or offence of any kind , was destruction to the cause . Ho next had to congratulate them on tho late Anti-Repeal meeting , and he was

      delighted to perceive that no one opposed in opinion to those who held the meeting had interfered with them . They had the privilege of being Anti-Repealers , as the Repealers had theirs , and having met to exercise the sacred right of petition , it was quit © right that they Bhould not be interfered with . He had anxiously looked over the reports of that meeting , is the hope of finding some arguments in favour of the Union ; but he was disappointed , for the speakers / did not even attempt that species of rhetoric called a lie , to prove that the Union was a benefit to the country . They bad abused him to be sure , bnt he hoped to earn much more of their abuse as he went along . They had also abused the Catholic religion ; but he would not be more

      ready to give it up , because half-a-dozen fellows cried out" no peace with Home , " and attributed coaduct and objects to them which never entered their minds . What had Rome to do with Repeal ?—it was not a , Roman , bnt an Irish question —( hear , hear ) and the endeavour to make it a no-Popery question showed that its opponents had not a single argument which they could advance . The Evening Mail , to which he returned thanks , as one of his best assistants , had latoly said that Sir Robert Peel must know that Repeal wouid do much good to Ireland ,, and would prove exceedingly useful—( hear , hear ) . And further , that it could be carried without endani ; eT ; ng Protestantifem , because nineteen cut of every twenly of the Lords would be Protestants—1

      ( bear , hear ) . Having commented at some length on the proceedings of the anti-Repeal meeting , the Hon . Gentleman proceeded to advert to tho late affray at Carland , ana stated that it had been ascertained that the fellows who commenced the riot by a-c attack on several ProteBtants who were quietly proceeding aloug the road were not Repealers . If he could ascertain that any of them had been enrolled , ho would fed it his duty to move their expulsion . The urum by which these Protestants were preceded had been broken , and he would propoi ? that a better cne be supplied to them from the funds of tho association . A man named Morrow had been beaten on the samo occasion , and he should cove that a sum be given to him out of their funds .

      to compensate him for tte loss of time he had suffered . These petty conflicts were most disgracoful , and , m fact , were almost the only thing that could rttard the progress of the cause . What he wanted was to rrstore Inland , not to a particular party or section of tb < : peopls , but to ail Irishmen . That was the tri : « i 2 ? an 3 U £ of ihf > phrase " Ireland lor tlia Irish" —; hcar , iseaT ) . Why , gome of the highest Conservatives were joining them . In Claro one young gentleman , a aecidua Conservative , . came to their meeting at the head of 600 horsemen . He meant Mr . John Malony , of Graig , a , gentleman of family and fortune , and a magistrate of tbe county . Ho was one of the magistrates who attended that meeting to proiest against the conduct of the Lord Chancellor .

      Mr . O'Coxkell concluded by moving the resolutions to which he referred , and they were carried unanimously . A letter from Mr . Bu ^ gy , the editor of the Bdfast Vindicator , was rcrd , in which ho stated ihatsecre : societies -srere tj reading in Ulster . ilr . O'Co > Ti £ LL said , that If lie i . ud time , he would writean address 10 ii « e people ot Ulster , on the subject , but he feared that his 1 n&a cements would cot permit him to do so . To-morrow he sl . sulu go down io Cloj > iceJ . and the r . exi day he should be in Skibbereeu . On Fdday ho sbuuld pasB through Limerick on his way to Gaiway . On Saturday he should be in Kilgorey , and , after mass on Sunday , he woald emcr Gal jvay . On Monday there wa .- to be a meeting there ; snd on Thursday he should be in Dandalk . It was then scarcely possible he fchould have time to pn pare this address . He ghould , therefore , oontent himself ** ith moving

      tbat the Association condemns illegal suei ^ ues , and oaths of all kinds , and implores the people 01 * Ulster to be on their guard against persona seducing % htm into such practices , and , if possible , to bring tl »« ir tempers to condign punishment by exposing thei > machinations . | After handing in several large sums of money frdia various parts of the country , the the Hon . Gentleman proceeded again to congratulate ihe Association on the advances which Repeal was making . He had not yet bad time to read Sir J . Graham ' s silly and impertinent speech through , but he had seen enough of it to glean that it ^\ as not intended to do any thing for Ireland . ( Hear , hear . ) Ht , congratulated them on this candid avowal of S ; r James Graham . Tbey should now look to thf-Eselvcs . They haa inscribed on their banner ? , peace , iaw , ate order , but were at the saeic time determined not to continue the afcject slaves 01 Great Britain . Tho feeling was ascending to the highest

      places , as the vast accession of rosp' ctable persons to that Association showed . He had had difficulty in convincing somo people that the Repeal was the only hope for Ireland ; but now Sir James Graham had come to his assistance , to show them , that every other hope was denied them , and he ( Mr . O'Conuell ) thanked him for having-done so—( hear , hear ) . A Whig newspaper had lately stated that an enlightened despot would b& the best governor for Ireland . Iu reply to this ho would say , that if such an attempt were made , they would ! stand on the law and the constitution in defence of their liberties—they might deprive the people of Ireland of those , but only with their lives—( loud and protracted cheering . ) The Rev . Mr . Hackett , an American clergyman , addressed tho meeting from one of the side benches

      and , in allusion to an article of ihe Globe newspaper , in which it was said , that " perhaps an enlightened despot for the next quarter of a century" would be the ; fittest governor for Ireland , said that if such an experiment was to bo tried , the sooner it came to that extremity the better . If force and despotism were to be adopted , the sooner the people were prepared for it the better . Mr . Steele rose and ; said , he felt it a solemn duty , in the face of heaven and earth , and in the presence of his great moral leader , to protest against the doctrine broached by the gentleman who had last addressed the meeting , and whxm he had not ; the pleasure of being acquainted with . The people did not seek such extremities . They hoped to tachitve their objects without force or violence . ( Loud cheers . )

      Mr . O'Conneli . said he could net too strongly repudiate anything in the shapo of an incentive to force . ' In the great popular struggle the people relied upon ( ho legal a-iti peaceable assertion of their demands for justice . They contemplated no other means ; and io was his conviction that they would succeed by those means- ( cheers ) . He totally repudiated the contemplation of any other—( continued chafers ) . The Secretary proceeded to read a great number of communications enclosinf : subscriptions , amongst 1 hem were £ 40 from South Carolina , aud fifty t ' ranoa frota some parties ia Pari ? . At the termination of the proceedings ,

      Mr . O'Connell announced , amid great cheering , that tho Repeal rent for the past week amounted to £ 3 , 103 7 s . 6 ld . The largest sum received in one week by the Catholio Association was £ 2 , 700 , and that was' during tho height of the agitation for the Claro eleotion . In general the average of the receipts did iuofc exceed j £ 350 . The meeting then separated .

      In his letter in the Northern Star of the 15 th of April last , Mr . O'Connor , in announcing his scheme , says that his " chief aim and object is so to locate the honest ¦ working man that he may uninterruptedly enjoy , the proceeds of his natural labour . " In the same letter he also tells as that {" he hopes to prove irrefutably that the people have jit now in their power to present a large practical illustration" of the result of bis plan ; and then he proceeds to assure us that his is " a scheme ia support of which no law beyond that already in existence , shall ! be required ; " adding " tbat in this scheme every farthing raised will go to the benefit of tbe society ( of labourers ) itself . "

      Need I quote more in order to show , tbat according to tbiB sew light : of Mr . O'Connor , all our efforts to obtain what we have called out rights , all out " agitation" in behalf of jthe Charter , now prova to have been but superfluous and mischievous impertinence ; seeing that' * ' we have ifci now in onr power , " as he tells as , even " before the 12 th of May , in next year , so to locate the honest working man , " that " every farthing" he earns shall be secured to bis benefit ; and that his earnings shall be three hundred , two hundred , or at the very lowest , oue hundred pounds sterling a year ? If this be so ; j if we can indeed thus immediately enter into each splendid results ; " so fascinating and so free , " aa Mr . JO'C . says , then , what need of tke Charter ? What sense is there , in postering ourselves and others about ] -what we call our rights , when tbe toad to prosperity ! and fortune thus stands to us 1

      ^ ut , we are told , this scheme is not to supercede our agitation for the Charter . Indeed t Why , this scheme we are assured [ will be a remedy for our distress ; and we surely need not two remedies j we are not , it is to be hoped ^ such unreasonable dogs as to want to be doubly curbed . The Cbarter we have found is somewhat difficult of achievement ; and , although I am persuaded' that the time for winning it , if we -do but keep together and single ia our purpose , is now pretty near at hr . nd , yet should I , and I think all sensible men , if ^ rhat be say B of it have any tree foundation , prefer the more immediate " nostrum" of

      Mr . O'Connor , which be says cun be adopted and carried into effect without delay , and with little or no difficulty ; aud which is not merely to relieve distress , but to raise « p to [ prosperity and fortune . The putting forward of this scheme , or of any other , as a remedy for the prevailing distress , sava tbat for which we Chartisms have beta contending ; tbe putting forward of anything , as a remedy , is clearly playing into the hands of [ our oppressors . To admit tbat there is more than one remedy , is to admit that there may be a thousand ! and then what wouid become of our integrity of purpose ? what would become of our sole remedy , the Charter 1 It is lost amongst tbe Babel of projects , and we become aptit-up , divided , and scattered .

      We want not two remedies , did two exist , . which , however , I stoutly deoy . But however this may be we want to be cured o nly once . We want only one remedy . It is dangerous to [ listen to two—if we do « o we are sure to be split into two or three parties , some for one , some for the other scheike , and suoie for both ! Remember tbat " Between two stools , &c , " and stick to the Charter alone . J I remain , Youra faithfully . Thomas Smith . Liverpool , June 19 , 1643 .

      P . S . —If any more be to be said of tbis project about the land , I should ! much like to occupy a single column with what may be termed the statistics , and the rationale of tbe scheme , irrespective of its bearing on Chartism . May I hope that the Editor will yield me a column for the purpose ? « .

      TO THE CHARTISTS OF GREAT BRITAIN . ON THE ' LAND SCHEME" AND " THE CHARIER . " " Between two stools you come to the eriund . " Old Proverb . Fellow countrymen , —We have been contending for our freedom ; for the emancipation of ourselves and of our suffering fellow-countrymen , from a system of !; yranny and pillage which is more exacting , more grinding and oppressive , than almost any other people in the world ever endured ; our unfortunate brethren in Ireland alone exempted . Toe poverty and const quent misery engendered by this system , have long been a source , not ODly of reproach , but also of serious ahum , even to our selfish and greedy oppressors theiiiaelvi-s ; and schemes , tberefore , of all aorta and sizes , save the plain and honest one of abating the pillage , have been deviled and carried into operation by ( hem .

      It i 8 notorious that for full fifty years ' paat , the press , the various places of worship , and the Houses oi Parliament have teened with projects of relief ; and our country has abounded with benevolent and charitable institutions ; yet have the poverty and misery continued to iocrea&e , and their natural conBequences , crimes , disease , and death . And why ; why la this ? Why , but because the artfully contrived , the multifarious , the searching system of taxation to which we have been subjected is persisted in ; because the fruits of honest industry are filched from the working people . It is because the millions of labouring people are short of the Decenaries of life ; and because the clasees next above them , the tradesmen aud dealers and professional men generally * are struggling together to avoid tbe some fate of destitution and misery .

      It is not that our Government is , or baa been , indifferent , or regardless oi the condition of the people . It ia tbe pride , as it ever has been the interest of Governments to have their subjects prosperous , well-provided , healthy , and contented . Tyranny , whatever may have been its freaks in ancient days , and in other regions ; tyranny , in modern Europe , and most especially in our country , has taken thia shape and \ no other whatever -. it is a thiDg of searching , of grinding exaction . It is a system of taking , —some little by open and direct means , but chiefly by certain round-about , indirect , aud underhand ; contrivance , — the fruits of industry from the millions .

      Not tbat our Government has been indifferent te the poverty and suffering of the people . On the contrary they have encouraged and carried into effect all sorts of schemes fox repairing tbe evils they itfliot by their everlasting exactions . Aud yet , as we all see aud feel the evils for the remedy of which these schemes have been devised and patronised have continued to increase until tbey have reached their present intolerable and alarsiing extent . And , why is this ? Again I ask , wby ? bnt because the proper , and tbe only remedy has never been tolerated , much less applied . The remedy which we have agreed on , the remedy which alone we had tesolved to listen to , was the same as has been Bteadily recommended by Major John Cartwright , by Granville Sharp and other worthies , for about 'seventy years last past . It , is that which we have embodied in " the People ' s . Charter . "

      This remedy is no other than tho possession and the free exercise of our rights , as men , in checking or controlling the measures of the Government ; and especially in controlling the hand of taxation . For it is clearly the numerous and heavy texts ; it ia clearly the numerous pillages committed on the honest and industrious millions of the people , that causes their poverty , tbeir degradation , and their misery . In favour of this , our remedy , we Chartists , who bad long eeen the fruitlessness , the folly , aud the fraud , of all other schemes ; in favour of this , we had unanimously come to a resolution that we would neither countenance nor listen to any other scheme ; tbat setting ourselves against all other projects , and confining our energies to the attainment of thia one , we would concern ourselves in the furtherance of no other public measure , " until tbe Charter shall become the law of the land . "

      Thia was wiaa and good ; and to this resolve we were constantly exhorted , and enjoined , by our leaders . But , behold , now a scheme of quite another complection , for enriching tbe labouring people , for making them prosperous , ami even powerful ; a scheme which we are told can be carried into effect immediately , without waiting for the Charter ; and all this propounded ucrl unjetl by © ur chiefest leader feimaelf , with all his conslixu ^ onar zeal and activity , and through all his extensive chauneis of publication ! " The general distress of the working classes , " says Mr . O'Connor , in one of his recent letters in the Northern Slur , * ' is admitted on all hands , while each has his peculiar nostrum for their relief . MINE IS THE LAND . " And , accordingly , Mr . O'C proceeds , aa you Lave seen , with the details of his plan , and with description of the splendid results to be derived from its adoption .

      Into the patticulaw of this scheme , or as Mr . O'Connor haa chosen to call it j " nostrum ;'' Into the patticulaia of it , and the ( to me ) manifest futility thereof , both a « to the practicability and promised results , I may not here , be permitted to enter . At present , I take leave only to point out to you , my brother Chartists , and to [ Mr . O'Connor , if he have overlooked the fact , that if I what he hts said of his scheme be correct ; if be have a remedy , and especially bo very efficacious a remedyias he pronounces this of bis to be > for "the genvVaJi distress of the working clame * , " ind this

      tenieu vibe something other than that prescribed by era Charter then have we Chartists been all in the wrong ; as , indeed , aw » W otb < ' * P ^ Httcal refenners . If hta scheme en thi * ! & » d ** ^ ^ ^ Ub us , then ia there , clearly , ; no occ 1 * 81011 whatever for the Charter , nor fox nny other reform of the Parliament ; and we who have busied ourselves in Jemandingsach reform , have bean a factions and senseless t * et of agitators , well meriting all tbe odium , expense , ana Buffering that we have endured . Let us proceed , howe ? 6 f > yet a little closer tut the matter .

      TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN STAR . Sir , —The Hyde ! Chartists are determined to awake from their long slumber , and show the plundering , tyranica ! , Anti-Corn Law League , that Chartism , in Hyde is neither dead nor sleeping . Although the Whigs succeeded in depriving them of the Hall tbat cost the poor operatives £ 700 to erect , yet they are determined to ] keep up a peaceable and legal agitation until they see their country what she ought to be—" great , gloriima , and free . " During the last strike , tbe men of Hyde stood forward manfully in demanding the Charter ; and , although they were seven weeks without doing a hand ' s stroke of work , during which period they ] experienced extreme poverty and

      distress , yet who j cau say that tbey destroyed one pennyawortb of property ? The League very " liberally" rolled out in jthe public streets barrels of beer to induce them to drink , ia order to justify their malicious designs . To tbe honour of the Hyde mea , nobody would drink it , eaive a few drunken " hanvies , " who cared not a straw about their characters . The League have carried their [ meetings tbeir own way since last September . This was just what they wanted ,, and sought for , by the 1 " strike . " Bat I am determined to meet them at tfceirjown threshhold , aud show up tbeir fallacies and knavish designs . Yea ! the " red cat" of

      Hyde will still discharge the duty he owes to his God and to his country : that is , to bring-truth and error into conflict and competition , tbat the minds cf mea may be capable of jseeing what is wrong and what is right . The Waigsjof Hyde laid every plot , used every scheme , to procur ^ for roe banishment ; and for what ? For endeavouring to keep the peace , and preserve Hyde from their revolutionary designs . ' I have recorded a vow : ' to keep to jthe Charter , and work on public opinion , until a majority of the people of England demands it Then ] according to Sir Frederick Pollock himself , the Charter must become the law of tbe country . Hurrah for ihe CharUr , and no surrender ! I remain yours , in the good cause , J . M . Lbach . Hyde , June 19 th , 1843 .
