Rro-Morrow The Nation Is Requested By Th...
ter on these grounds offered a timely instrument for political opponents , who were them selves less scrupulous about consulting local interest . Such is the probable explanation of the anomalous result . Imperially , that resadt is unimportant Ireland is prac & icalising her politics . Mr . John O'Connell attempts , this week , to establish an association " for general purposes , " but without success ; the attendance at hi ^ meeting -was abowt two ; the subscriptions will be , about 4 d :. The Tenant League has had a conference , at -which also the attendance was slack , but of -which the
proceedings were intelligible and sensible . The new circumstances of the country render a Tenant League almost as little required as it is in England ; but the League is doing this good—it is keeping the best oE the national Irish party together in Parlianienfary independence ; and their demands are naturally being so modified , that we may begin to entertain a distinct hope of English Badical members and Irish Tenant-right members uniting themseWes into a compact organisation in the House of Commons , capable of coercing eren a Coalition into Liberalism for both countries .
Tet , if the Tory leaders ) Lord Derby and - ' Mr .. I > israeli , are deliberately about to raise a Protestaut cry ? We hesitate to believe in such political infamy . . England and . IPrance are illustrating the cordial alliance by exchanging compliments ., Paris is about to adopt the JLondon system of police . What a blow i , o romancers I—French statesmen destroying the assumed efficiency of a " secret police , "—a secret police being necessarily a failure . Australia supplied a new world to commerce ,
and it is supplying a new world to art . The , English " public" is enlarging for all the Englishmen and "women ¦ who live upon the public . Miss Catharine Hayes , having made a great fortune in America , is piling an Australian ( golden ) Pelion upon the Californian Ossa . Mr . Cr . V ; Brooke f ollows , and no doubt we are to see a , Hegira of singers and actors . London may get pleasanter by-and-by ; _ and it will be agreeable to see the rough colonists getting so humanised by our " great dramatic artists . '

The General Thanksgiving. Thu Form Of Pr...
THE GENERAL THANKSGIVING . Thu Form of Praye r for the Day of Thank sgiving ( to-morrow ) has been published—It runs thus : — A Prayer of Thanksgiving to Almighty God , for the present Abundant Harvest . To be used at Morning and Evening Service , after the General Thanksgiving i n all Churches and Chapels in England and Wales , and in the town of Berwickon-Tweed , on Sunday , the 1 st of October next . Auhghty God and Father , of whose only gift It cometh that the earth ia made to yield its increase for the sustenance of man , vouchsafe , we beseech Thee , to accept this our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving , that Thou hast crooned the year with Thy goodness , and caused the earth to
bring forth abundantly , that it might give seed to the sower and bread to the eater . We acknowledge , O Lord , that it is of Thy great mercy that the evils of want and scarceness are not added to the dangers of warfare abroad , and the terrors of pestilence at homo . We might have sown much , and brought in little ; the heaven might have been stayed from dew and the earth stayed from her fruit . But Thou hast dealt graciously with Thine unworthy servants , and has blest the labour of the husbandman , and ( llled our garners with all manner of store . And now , Lord , wo entreat Thco , together with these temporal mercies , to bestow the ineatimablo gift of Thy Holy Spirit , that a d « o sense of Thy goodueijs toward tills land may . awaken in tis a more sincere repentance toward Thco , and , a more earnest faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ . Grant that the
dangers by which wo nro still threatened—the pestilence wh 3 ch walketU in darkness , and the sword ¦ wh ch dostroyeth at noon-day—may lead ua to ft more active obedience to Thy law » , a moro earnest endeavour to conform to Thy will , and to advance Thy Glory . . Dispose tho hearts of those , to whom nbundanco has been given , to uao that abundance in relieving the necessities of tho poor and destitute ; that whilst many have gathered plenty , nono may pine In Want and penury . Ahufi may Thy judgments and Thy momort alike work together for tho apiritunl benefit , of nil tho i > eoplo of this land , and tend to graft in their hearts an lucvoaalnir love and Auir of Thco , our only rofugo in tho time of trouble . * ITenr , wo beseech Thee , O Lord , thono ouv 1 mm bio petitions , nn < l receive thotte our thanksgivings , for his w « ko , our only Mediator and Advocato . Amen .
* To bo addod whore tho cholera prevails : — And may tho frequent iiiHtanuon of mortality which ¦ wo have noon remind u « nil of tho nuarucssof d « ath , and of tho judgment that in to follow ; that whether living w dying , wo may bo found faithful disciples of Him who has taken away the sting of death , mid opened tho gate of everlasting Ufa to all believers ,
The War, The Crimea. The Laa&Ding Of The...
THE WAR , the Crimea . The laa & ding of the troops was effected , "without opposition , at a place called Old Port , tlrittj miles front- Sebastopol . Eupatoria was , about the same timey .. occupied by a stnaJl force of English , French , and T 5 arkish troops . 'Ehe army was on fall march for Sebastopol . MenscluJctnT wosf awaiting the attack of tSe allied forces in position at Buirluik ,. on the river Alma ^ That place would be reached by the allies on the 20 th , and there are rumours of a battle having been fought on that day . We may have news today ^ Saturday ) . THE DANUBE . Omar Pacha is advancing into Bessarabia , and marehing towards the Pruth . It is said there will be a " Siege of Ismail . " THE BALTIC . The latest accounts leave the fleet off Revel . Thojre is still a talk of an attack on that city , bufc nothing is known of what js to be done- Sir C . Napier is not coming home just yet ; and it would seem that the future movements of the fleet depend a good deal on the part Sweden may take . Some of her ports -would be desirable for a portion of the fleet to winter in . ASIA . Two combats have been fought in GeoTgia between Daniel Bey , Schamyl ' s lieutenant , and WrangeVs division . The Russians were beaten . The Poles , who formed part of the Russian forces ,, are reported to have gone over to the enemy with two guns . the pacific . The combined squadron of France and England consisting of the Virago , President , Amphitrite , Rigne La Porte , L'Eury dice-, li'AJtemise , and L'Obli- * gado were at Honolulu , in the Sandwich Islands , on the 29 th July . They were scouring the Pacific irr search of Russian vessels . LOKD DprNDONAtD" AGAIN . Lord Dundonald is very restless about the command of the Baltic fleet , which was not offered to him . He has written another tetter to the papersaa thus : — The unfounded charge brought against Lord Aberdeen , refuted by " -the only testimony that could be adduced , " being now transferred to Sir James Graham , accompanied by the assertion of a person that he heard the imputation from a friend of mine , I feel it to be my duty farther to declare that Sir James Graham never offered the command of the Baltic fleet to me , and that I did not ask it , under the impression that Admiral Sir Charles Napier was the most capable of undertaking the arduous task of bringing the crews of an undisciplined fleet to order . I mentioned , however , to Sir James Graham that , if the attack on Sebastopol ( the most desirable object of th-e war ) failed to terminate hostilities , I should hold myself in readiness to employ my " secret plan" on . any naval enterprise , more especially if such were deemed impracticable by the usual art of war . Attacked as I have been for stating the truth in regard to Lord Aberdeen , I trust that a generous public will suspend their judgment until at an early day I shall rebut the calumnies with which I have been assailed .
