struggle of these States and of Ireland for liberty from thevunjust and | oppressive laws of the same heartless tyrant ; followipg this barouche were many carriages containing tie ; Exeontive ' . Committee , - the TreM'itQTi and Seaetatyiof the Bspe » l Association ; then came four others , in which were the members of . the Com * mitteeof Arrangements for the day . j " The wLole-of the procession , tome four miles , was crowded with ciliasns wearing the Repeal badge , and on all s'dea could be discovered some diBtinct mark of the kindlj ; feeling of our citizens for tho legislative regeneration of unhappy Ireland . As the horsemen
passed the monuments erected to the memory of those illustrious Irishmen , Montgomery and Thomas Addis Emmet , in 8 L Paul ' s church-yard , the band halted , and they and the ; long line of Repealeri faced towardB the tombs , wiA 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 eff < jct with every evidencelthat it' was sincerely appreciated by the Repealers . It ! took the Immense concourse which thronged the square by surprise , and many a heart beat with admiration for the warm Impulses of 'that portion of our citizens , who so'handsomely exhibited the respect they bore the cherished memories of the
dead . : "The head-quarters was greeted with rapturous cheers—the great room of the Hall was thronged with ladies and invited ' guests of the committee , and from the windows ' w ^ re displayed the Waving han ^ keichiefs of the fairest- daughters of our citizens . After having been reviewed ; by the President , the immense and delighted procession separated without having encountered , during the day ' s parade , any thing to cause an uncomfortable reflection . There never has been , in tbese [ States , bo magnificent and creditable a display on the part of our Irish adopted' citizfens ; and there sever was a period at which some similar exhibition of respect for the Institutions and chief officers of oor country was more needed than it now is . From some
fewweok and contemptible presses do wo hear it declared that they consider it impolitic to take any part with suffering Ireland as American citizens . Wo ask such miserable . cowards , base crlngers to the Tory principles ; we ask those who ever are and ever will be the secret traitora to tliifl-country , to tell us , what portion oi the citizens of New York did most onMondaylastj to show that they understood what was their duty aa American cltizms ? We pause for a reply . We will ring ic again and again in the ears of such men , that the Repealers of New York , did themselves more credit In the late reception , and escorting of the President of the United States than any other association , no matter for what purpose organized , | n the whole of the route through which he passed . "
In addition to the axoiting and enthusiastic manifestations of "sympathy" on the part of the Americans already detailed , a large out-door meeting was holden on Wednesday , Jnne 14 th , which the Truth Teller describes as "the greatest assemblage of human beings ever gathered together atone time in New York . " jWe 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 bearings of this * Repeal" question : —
the mass Meeting in the pare . " The greatest assemblage ef human beings ever gathered together in New York , foi any purpose , wm that , which met last evening at the Park , to sympathise with IrelandJfc At the lowest computatien made , they numbered Thirty Thousand , whilst some rated it at Fifty Thousand . ; At half-past six , the Committee , followed by a large nnmber of gentlemen , made their way amongst the -dense masses to the temporary stand erected in front of tha City Hall . The large flight of ascending steps ] served for the distant crowd to stand on . The most excellent arrangements were made foe the press , and ' we are sore that every paper in the city was represented there .. * ' On the motion of the Hon . John M'Keon , the Honourable Minthorne Tomkina was called upon ta preside . ¦
" The meetiDg being called to order the following resolutions were moved by Edmund S . Kerry , Esq ., and their adoption moved by . the Hon . J . M'Keon , in a powerful speech . " Whereas , the Tory Ministry of Great Britain have promulgated a . solemu 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 . : - u Resolved , That / the friends of Ireland in New York regard such declaration and threat with mingled feelings of indignation And horror .
"Resolved , Ab the love of justice is a natural and irrepressible instinct in the bosom of every Irishman , we see in this language of the Ministry no alternative but carnage and dessolation , unless that Ministry relent or are driven from their purpose ,- f or 8 . . 000 ot Irishmen , cheered on by the friends of liberty , justice , and humanity tbonghout 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 ana foreign policy , > rapacious aod cruel disregard ot the rights and interests of th « people ; that it is a political monster , useful only to ft class of comparatively insignificant numbers , covered with the 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 Engllah people , if properly * awakened , to the necessity of enforcing it , have the power to do so ; and Inasmuch as that people are brave , liberal and just , therefore , . - V Resolved , As the sense , of this meeting , that the sympathy of nations properly expressed / for Ireland 4 s wen calculated to arouse this dormant power , and affords the best jmd most effectual means of averting the calamities of civil war , and ultimately obtaining for Ireland-, the ; restoration of hex own Legislature .
" Resolved , That under these circumstances , we deem it a moral duty of every inhabitant of the United States , of Irish . birth ot Irish descent , and highly praiseworthy and becoming in every citizen thereof , to contribute bis voice influence and pecuniary aid to strengthen the binds of that band of Irish patriots , who with Mr .

Frenchmen I Speaking to you in behalf of Ireland , we invoke the remembrance of an alliance of centviries between the Gauls and' the Green Isle ! < Wo evoke the remembrance of those battle nelds where the Berwicks , { the Lally'fe , the Sarefietd ' a . the Dillon ' s , the Hamilton ' s , the Elliots , tbe Mac Donalds , have mingled their blood with the blood of your warriors , wherever the white flag or the glorious tri-colour have waved . ! We entreat your sympathies for the wrongs ot 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 tbey have ever felt In the days of your adversities . Tbo generous compassion you avowed for Greece ; that which every year your representatives express for the P » tes Fi euchmen ! we ask them now for Irelandi ! 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 us unlearned mechanics and
farmers . We Implore Chateaubriand to embrace the cause of a people breathing the very spirit and genius of Christianity—we pray Latnartine to make the Bufferings of Ireland the theme of some other angel inspired meditations—we , entreat Victor Hugo to awake , for martyred Erin , lovely and guiltjes , like bla own Esmeralda , —arid , like ber too , remorselessly tortured—by tyranny ! and relentless intolerance , —that deep pity fw Teal miseries -which the weird ; accord 8 of bis Lyre have so often , inspired for fictitious sorrows . We call on Beronger to sing again , —( his silence too , when freedom shrieks . lis a public calamity !)—not those netea of mirthful glee ! which ia the wild days of hia youth , gladdened France ; but those mournful strains be

" AFGUSTE DAYEZAO , } " JOHN MKEON , VCommittee " JOHN iVWYMBS , J " Tbe ( address was read and adopted amid thunders of applause . While Ma / or DavVzac was reading tbe address to the French nation , tbo meeting was very agreeably interrupted by the appearance of several Irish Societies and Ward meetings with splendid banneiB , preceded by a band playiog the airs of Ireland , and led to the meeting by Mr . Michael Connolly , who rode before the procession . ' " Mr . Carf followed Major Ifravezac in a powerful and
statesmanlike speech , in which , on behalf of America , he dared Sit Robert Peel to lay hands on O'Connell . This produced the most 'deafening' cheers we ever beard . He threatened hit * . with tht immediate loss of Canada-i'WiTH a bbvoli of fqvr millions of ' Chabti-OTS—WITH THE SlOYEMBNt OF THE FRENCH , AND THE IMMEDIATE BfOSirilTY OF AMERICA . All these topics excited the people terribly . ! , " Mr . Carr moved the following resolution which was edopted unanimously— ., ' . , ,
" Resolved—That believing that the cause of Repeal to the cause of Freedom and good government , and that tbe success of the cause is eesential not only to , the happiness of Ireland , but to the interest * of itrue Liberty tbroughout the world , we as the happy subjeols of a Free Government cannot but regaid with feelings ef the strongest ( indignation the threat to check the agitation of the subject by the bayonet and the sword ; and that in case the oppressors of Ireland should attempt to carry such a threat into execution We would recommend them not to waste &n their energies , upon Ireland , but to reserve Home of their military resources for the Canadas and the United States . ' " Mr . Melville and Mr . Barber also addressed the meeting , when > lr . M'Keon moved an adjournment .
" Mr . Melville then called for three cheers for * Ireland , O'Connell , and Rapes ! , ' which were given with a spirit we never beard equalled . The evening being fine ana still , the cheering was heard in several streets surrounding the Park . " We cannot conclude this setting forth of the Movement in America in aid pf the Repeal of the Irish Union , without giving the Leading Article of the Ttftth-telkr of the 15 th of Jnne last ; the paper from which we have extracted the matter already R iven . From that Artiole the people of Great Britain will learn what are the feelings , desires , and
expressed intentions of the Amerioan " sympathisers . " - It is of the last importance that they should bo learn them . We give the article at full length , that there may be no possibility of misconception or misunderstanding on the part of the reader . Here it is , every word : and it is of the greatest consequence . Let it be well pondered over and let it prompt to a right and just course of action . The dangers by whioh we are surrounded are increasing on every hand ., It is only by a prudent and timely "concession" of justice that we can avert them : —

BLAZE !! ' We transmit to Ireland , to-day , by the Acadia , several thousand copies of the . Truth Teller . We have addressed them to { he Clergy and chief Repealers of Ireland—of the North—of tbe South—ef the Westof the East , of that persecuted land . We transmit to them the voice of New Yprk in their behalf . And not only tJie voice of New York , but of the millions of American Freemen , who have been aroused into active resistance by the audacious threats of the British Miniatry > We say ( r « fe ^« oe ,. deliber * t « ly { for , should the I foolish impotent Minister dare to put his
threat / into execution , that moment would the outraged spirit of fifteen mllllonB of / American freemen . fly to arms in behalf of Ireland . The parchment trea ^ eB about bouridarieB would soon bo-broken , and the flist thought of every man would be to overthrpw thejwwer of England .

of Eoroi e and Am&i ica . At preseutj'rtbat vast natural treasure iB guarded by the Tory authorities of England . It ir true that the United .

Of course , they arc : for the very essence and nature of ' . British policy is monopoly , exclusion , tyranny ! j { , " Oncelet Irelandbastriokonandthis vasteab-marine treasure- is open to tne world . No previously formed treaties with Britain—no authority of the American Executive could restrain our indignant population from overturning the whole North American Continent , and by one short month ' s [ campaign annexing it to tbe sixand twenty free States cf this Republic—or erecting ft
into an Independent RepuWio , based on its own faardy population ! The Irishmen of the siuele State of JMew York alone would accomplish this feat [ See the proposal of Mr . Mullen , an tbe ' second day ' s * proeeedinga of tbe New York Repealer ?] . Once let Ireland be stricken , and there is not a society of Irish Repealers in America ! that would not famish its quota of money , men , and [ military stores to the struggling patriots of tbe Green Isle , despite the efforts of . ( foe general Government of the United States to the contrary . Lot Ireland be stricken by the first Saxon mercenary ; and the moment the news arrives here her manufactures will be fi ! ung into the s « a from every ship bearing her colours in out harbours by the outraged people of America , from Boston to New Orleans .
Boston ! glorious Boston ! would be the first to do it But no . . The Irishmen of . New York would pe the first to retaliate on the oppressors of their father-land . There will not foe a British ! ship left entire in the . harbour of New York on the evening pf that day when the news arrives that Ireland is stridkeu ! " This is the resolve of the Repealers of America , ! - apd ^ they have the power to put it Into execntion at evi ^ j port ef this great Continent Let Ireland , be stricken by a single hostile shot—let any of her aanetified clergy oi her indomitable champion O'Connell be arrested , in their peaceful agitation , then would the 250 . 000 Irishmen in ! London , the 80 . 000 Irishmen in
Manchester , the 90 , 000 Irishmen in Liverpool , tbe 80 , 000 irishmen in Glasgow , be called upon by the voice of nature and country to retaliate I And what have they not in their bands , to accomplish ? Have they not power to destroy the commjercial power of England ! by a simultaneous burst Aye , the whole pf her manufacturing piles could be given to the flames in a single night ! and wonld be given , were tbe bloodhounds of Toryism let . loose on the people of Ireland . " Thank heaven ] the people sf Ireland have outgrown their manaoies—have established a foreign policy sufficient to check the foe and even subdue his power , if that be necessary to their freedom and
happiness . . | . ' > . . " France , the old and . natural enemy of England—France the sold , and natural friend of : Ireland—will be again , in the day of jtrial , pn the sida , of virtue , and Erin . But tha people of Ireland are a match even as they stand for th « Peelites . Subtracting from the eight and a half to nine millions , which compose the population , tbe 500 , 000 Episcopal Protestants who are supposed to be so wedded to the Established Church , that they would even fight ] to uphold the corrupt mass ;
subtracting these , we say ; from the population of Ireland , there yet remain eight millions , whose interest clearly is the well-being and happiness of Ireland . Hew fa this power to b& 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 the duties tbey owe him—and from the same sacred tribunal , and by the same consecrated lips , they are leeturedjen the duties they owe . to liberty and their native land ! What force has Peel to smother
this combination of spiritual , moral , and physical power ? The sabre ! Ah ! the pike wonld confuse as truly as the sabre ! Let Peel remember the . battles of Wexford , Eoniacorthy and Vinegar Hill . Let him remember < the Castlebar Races' and Ballinamuck ! Tho pike did all in those places t aad though by his ArmB Bill and his police he hath disarmed the Irish people , we tell him even from this , that j a million of steel pikes could be manufactured and } sent to Ireland in two weeks from the 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 8 Oon flung them away , and rushed to the charge with their favourite weapon , the pike ; and history tells how tbey made General Lake
and 20 , 000 regulars fly before them ! Every nation has its favourite weapon . The pike [ gqllhe % n \ is the favourite weapon of the Irish . Every parish , smlddy knows bow to make it—every peasant knows how te use it 1 A million of pikes could be manufactured in a month , in Ireland : so ! in physicals Sir Robert would not have it all hia own way . . : ^ .. ' "Again , what may the . force be that tbe Tories could bring ? The ninety or one hundred thousand military which tbey call the ^ Queen ' s troops' are one ha » lf at least Irishmen , and Catholics— -and is it too much to add—are Renealers . I Does the history of desnats
furnish no instance ' of volunteers from their seared Slaves rushing to the standard of liberty ? Ay , many . ' And are wo to be told ! that the army of Ireland contains no Marshal Neysf no Mehemet Alis ? Forbid the thought , Goddess of sacred Liberty t Thou 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 flag of Britain . Not a thousand men can be spared from all the Queen ' * possessions abroad . S « Robert cannot attaok Ireland witb a ( fence less than 200 , 000 armed
and diseiplined men , [ These cannot be armed > and disciplined by a magical invincible process , We must fee and hear the thing ; And the moment we do see and bear it , why , then we may possibly put the Irish people in possession of a j counter-force of which the following is just a slight specimen : "' James Bergen , of New York , is-authorised to pledge the truth and honour of a distinguished American practical engineer ' and protechnist , whose name is known ito some membera of the Executive pummittee of the United Irish Repeal Association , bu £ who for obvious reasons would hi present remain unknown , that he is the inventor andjaole poBsessor of a new destructive projectile , by which he is able , with the greatest secresy , accuracy , , and certainty to destroy , at one shock , any edifice in j 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 , ho will , as an American hater of despotlsui , take the necessary measures ] to place this 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 , he can convince even the chance ] victor . of Waterloo , that the oomblned Navy of England could not enter Cork Harbour without tbe certainty of destruction to every ship and to every map . He } is ready to go to-morrow , and asks no man ' said in this enterprise . ' t " Now , who is ' James Bargen' ? We will tell Si * Robert that n ? is -o relative of Bisbop Higgins , and the Grand Marshall of the Repealers of the City of New York ! I ,
"Sir Robert will perceive that the Repealers of America are armed at ( all points .. And as we have taken the trouble 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 . I ; ¦ , " We are not leagued together here for the injury of the English nation . We believe the Epglisn , nation , as distinguished from the aristocracy , are _ strongly in favour of xestoring ; v the | Parliamentary . power of Ireland . TWs is attested by Mr . Mooney in his judicious address on the ' Fourth Night . ' The great body of tbe people of England have already declared unequivo . cally 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 have to carry the war into Birmingham , Leeds , and Manchester , as well as into Dublin , Kilkenny , and Limerick .
" The Funds and the Factories—the Rents and the Tythea— % ho places and the pensions—the possessions abroad" and the monopolies at borne are at stake on the one side , and the resolute millions of England and Ireland are prepared on thejother side to risk their lives on the Issue ! 1 " Will the Queen , the judioious , humane Victoria , risk the blood of all her people to gratify the blood-thirsty disposition of those very Tories , who threatened to force her to abdicate her ] throne , not tbree short years ago ? ¦
" Will she , who when [ a girl , bad the courage to dis-. miss Peel and Wellington when they only threatened to deprive her of J her bod ehamber , now that she is a woman and a mother , halt in her obvious duty to her throne and dignity ? sow when Peel threatens to pluuge her people into the feorrora of Oivil War ? We opine not . j Courage then people of Ireland . Arise , in the majesty of your united millions , from the centre to tbe | extremities of Ireland—and demand your natural rights . Do this with the delicacy aad precision at disciplined men . Resort to no violence of any sort in your constitutional struggle with Peel . Be as inoffensive aa children . Avoid , all secret councils ., The Repealers of America will send no secret emissaries amongst you . Whatever they deem best for your , interest they wilj do openly . Do r | ot a ' uffer yourselves ^ to be trepanned into any secret society of any Sort Follow the ailvlce of your patriotic clergy ; . and wbin ever that sanctifie'd body call you into the field
in defence of your libetlea , tho people of America will openly arm In your support' There is no force in America than caQ or will stop them in ' their deternUQatlon . Every American- ^ every man ; wotnan , and child of tb ^ U gt ^ at Republic , is thoroughly convinced of . the piratical disposition of England—of her design to scauWuniversal' sway 1 jln all parts of this vaat'R epublic are / to be ' found expitrifted EngHahmen—the victims of the persecutions directed against the Chartlsfa . These men burn for ianopportunitylto be avenged on the aristocracy of England . Tbit opportunity will be fumiahed by Sir Robert ; the moment he attempts to put bis threat iuto execution . The ariima of the American heart is against the ] grasping power of England . Her whole history down to the recent capture of the Sandwich Islands shows what she is , calls up against her the sympathies of jthe lovers of Justice , in every nation .
