ABSORBINGLY IMPORTANT NEWS FROM AMERICA
IN fiELAfrlON TO THE " REPEAL * MOTEMENT . "Weiave been favoured troll a copy of an extra number of the New Yoik-Tratt Teller , of thel 5 : h of Jnne last , brought to England by the last packet , the Acadia . ThB paper is filled with matter highly important for every one of every grade in England Ireland , and Scotland , to become acqaainted -with The lecent ** revival" of the Kepeal agitation in Ireland : and the spirit of persevering
determination evinced by tie Irish people , have lit op a flame of " sympathy" in the United States " of which the English Reader of ordinary newspapers can form no adequate conception . The excitement in New York seems to be stronger even than in the city of DobHs itself . We deem a inll knowledge of this ** ^ apathetic" movement to be of immense moment to thepeople of Great Britain ; that they may folly understand all the difficulties attending the question of Repeal , and be prepared , after dealing -with those difficulties , to act -with justice to all concerned .
In the first place "we give an article from the New York Herald , from which it -will bB seen that the Repealers of the Ushed Sixtes are far from being & weak or unimportant body . On the contrary , he represents them as able , by their votes , to decide the qnesfion of * Who shall be President of the Great . Republic 1 " ! And in corroboration of this fact , ie details that in a public reception of President Tyler in the city of Kew York , the ** sympathising " Repealers acre assigned the post qfhonour 11 The son of the President haa long been knom to be openly attached to ihe canse of Repeal . Thespeaiiations indnlged in by ihe writer , as to ihe probable , or possible , effects of Ihe Movement , are at once both enrions and interesting . To the serions consideration of « very British subject ido we commend ihATn - —
" XHB BEPEAi AGIIATI 05 AXD US TENDENCIESIHE BEGIMSliSC OF A SETT BJiVOLVTlOiSAKT EHA . ** The agitation In this city , daring the last week , on the sAjert of Irish Bepeal , has already brought about a singular state of things , and will yet pro £ noa & most remarkable train of events in various parts of the civilizi-d world . " This Repeal movement has now been going on in Tarious parts ol this country for two or three years .-anflaltboagh at several points-of the Unioa , particularly in some of the larger cities , Baltimore . Boston .
PMl&ftelphla , &c , some marked degree of excitement on the subject has been occasionally manifested doiing the last year , yet in this City the misses have remained eomparafirely indifferent Xo the subject until within the Jbsl week ox two . Stffl it Jb very evident , that although no great movement has been made by the Irish and American population in New Tori on the q&esfion of Repeal until the last few days , yet that , its advocates have been meet actively , though secretly ai "work for some time in . endeavouring to rouse the people up to their present state of excitement This is clear -enough ; how that excitement is to be allayed unless the object sought be attained ; is by no means
•» 2 * ow that this popular feeHng has broken out , however , it has assumed a most singular form , and produced a remarkable strange slate of things . Giving the tone to aD the jxeat popular movements of the day in-thlB country , as New York Invariably ^ does , and as from - Its great central position it ever will do in this coantiy , yeSiiha * , rarely , or sever been tie case that anore than one or two meetings Within a month have been held here , eves upon the most * r * pii * ng snhject ; and equally rare that the subject has possessed sufficient force : to break down the broad lines of party thai cha"racterise almost all our meetrogs .
" -How different is this R-jpeal movement Instead of one meeting in one month , there have been six large meetings on as many consecutive 'nigrifa ^ held in the largest rocm in ths city , which has been crowded to -overflowing upon each occasion . Tn » fr » n ^ of xaujng -gje sum of 1000 dollars , as originally contemplated , not leas than 2500 dollar * were contributed in three nights , and the moaey has kept literally pouring in npen the treasurtieverwnee . Nor do these meetings stop here . Several proprietors of the largest public peaces of amusement have vied with each other in tendering the use of their establishments ; free ofall charge . Meetings are-to be held nightly during the coming weeks . Asd a large mass meeting in the open air is to be held on Wednesday Bert , at which twenty thousand persons
at least wul be present , and which will unquestionably be the largest and most exciting meefeg that has ever "been held in the city . Again—instead of the -exeitemeatjat these meetings being confined to a particular party , we may see many of the leading -and foma of the mosV-fiistiBguished 'men of all political parties straggling to Bee who shall give the farcn ^ est support to the matter . Members of Congress , ix-Governors , Jndgsa . Aldermen , oSce-holdsrs , both under the general asd city governments , lawyers , doctors , and indeed men of erery pade , shade , class , and character in the city . "Rng ?;« h Trififr , Scotch , ATnari « KTi »_ p-rench , Germans , ie . it , are all equally mixed np in the matter , and equally atdent in their desires and endeavours to aid Ireland in procuring a Sspeal of the Union .
" Another important result follows in theirain of tins movement—The large body of Irish . banded together by this common bondof Repeal in all parts of the country , contronl so large a number of votes that Xio piblic-man— -no leading politician—no candidate for the Presidency , either can or win oppose them , without enrormg tfca destruction of all his public prospects . Hence we -ate ths leading Whigs and democrats so actively aiding the agitation ; and the great mass of the "Whig *» a Democratic parties all over the country follow in their wake . The only opposition comes froHiaveryfewpapersana men connected with stockjobbing operations and Britiahcommercial agencies , that aie likely to suffer loss in the contest expected to ' arias
shortly in Europe on thisihsorbing subject . This will also account for the importance given to the Bspealers by the Common Council of Jhis city in the public reeep&m of the President of the United Spates to-day Thejareto tarn oat 8 , 000 or 10 . 000 ; they are to have fiie post of honour in the procession ; they are to form , as it were , the body guard of the President , and escort iiim Smmgh our noble city . Or course the grand marshal of the BepealErs will be especially introduced to the President ; he will congratulate © ur Chief Magistrate , ask for his sympathy , and pledge him the countenance of the Htpealers as a body . The President , as ft matter of course , must , in his reply , say something kmd , and complimeutaxy , which will be construed into encouragement ; 3 Jr . Robert Tyler -sdlT then be
lecog-Kizsd and thanked for his earnest labours in beh ^ f of Kepeal , and the exciting address he has given at Washington , jsbo : £ be oae he is about to give at Boston , denouncing the granny of X 3 rttt Britain , and declaring that Ireland ought to be free and independent . Then the whole mass of devoted , honest , enthusiastic Kepealera win , beyond a doubt , break out into three hearty cheers for *• the President of thb United States and his souRobert . boJh ~ hearty Repealers . " . Thus we shall have the ringnlsTspectacIa of the President and the whole of his Cabinet receiving the plaudits and general shouts of ttn thousand Repealers , feeHng fully conscious Of their curious situation , and yet so circumstanced as to be unable to make amove towards extrication without being more deeply involved .
"The same scene- will be enacted at Boston by the Repealers , upon the remarkable occasien of the Presideoi of ths United States viating the scene or a disas trous defeat to British power , on the anniversary of the day which ' gave the death blow to British ascendancy in this country ^ the whole to conclude , for the time being ,-with a most xrrJiting and eloquent harangue to ihd Boston Hspealeza by the eldest son and private and confidential Secretary of that President , telling them to Bio ? at nothing that will ecablethem to fc-parate Ireland for over from England , and declare themselves free and indeptndenL ~ £ ct there is no nss in dijguisiDg the Twitter . " Repeal" is the word used in all these agitationB ; hut a total separation of the two countries , and an independent existence and a republican form-of government for Ireland , though purchased by bloodshed , is what * vtry Repealer in this country desires , and hopes lo see brought abont
" And how curiously all this will sound in the ears ef Ihe British Government . How tiQ they be able to draw tee line of oistiiicHoij betieeen tfce official and Esmi-offidal character , who do and -who do not favour R = peal ? Will they not bJisva it a covert attempt of the leading Rspublions here to orsan ^ e on ibis grta : ceutral spot the msteriaia for revt ] uUon ^ j : ng not oaJj Ireland , tat England , Scotland , a » d Fiarae—and to aend abroid the Srst engines for th total subveraou of all the monarchies of Eaxops ?

We next give , fron > the Truth-Teller , brief descriptions of the nightly meetings spoken of in the above article . The full-details of the exciting proceedings occupy & main portion of the paper . What we give below will servo to convey , in some degree , a sense of the spirit and enthusiasm by whioh they were characterised : —
"HBPEAl THE ITS ION / KEPEAL IHE UNION !! " FIRST MIGHT , MONDAT .-" The cry of millions of slaves in Ireland is , ' Repeal the Union . ' The cry has been , and will continue to be echoed here by millions of freemen I Never since the days of the Hancock * and the Henrys , has there been such an outburst of American enthnsiasm is behalf of liberty , as that we have witnessed nightly in our city since the threat of Sir Robert Peel towards Ireland has been promulgated by the press . The committee of the
Repeal Association took certain and successful measures to d&velope the public sentiment , which was strongly manifested on Monday nighti upon which occasioi , the largest meeting ever bald in doors in the city of New Tork , took place at the Washington HalL The daily papers report that eighteen thousand persons attended that meeting . The room weknowcould not contain more than the one-third of the number at one time - , but the streets and lanes surrounding the building were thronged with anxious friends of Ireland , who echoed each patriotic cheer that rose within .
•• Tne business "began by the efficient'Secretary , Mt . B . -O Connor , calling to the President's chair the Hon . M . G . Leonard , ilember of Congress . ' Surrounding the chair we observed the Hon . J . ilcKeon , Member of Gongress , the Rev . Mr . M'Canon , Justice Bloodgood , Messrs . Charles O'Connor , John Cauld well , the treasurer , Gregory Dillon , James Bergen , J . Melville , John Mullen , Dr Hugh Sweeney , Dr . J . Sweeney , H . Byrne , Wm . Wallace , Felix Ingolsby , T . Mooney , Messrs . Wymbs and Bollone , the French deputation , Lawrence Lanjton , fcc ., &a " The Hon . Chairman rose and opened the business of the meeting in a brief but energetic speech . After acknowledging the honour they did him by placing him in that honourable position—he said the time had arrived when the friends of Ireland were called upon for deeds , and sot for words .
" Ou tie Chairman resuming his seat , several hundred persons rushed forward to pay in , their subscription ? , which commenced at eight o ' eloek , and did not t-nmnate until eleven . No other business was trans-&cted ; nor could any business be more appropriate than the receipt of the sinews of war . . " At half-past eleven , the officers were fairly worn down repeating the names aloud of the various contributors : every contribution , however suiall , was received with a hearty cfceer . At the close , it was announced that -620 dollars were actually paid in , amid the most deafening applause . The meeting then adjourned to the ensuing evening , in the same place .
) TOGHT—TUESnAT , " The Hon . John M * Keon was moved to the chair . He rose jnd very britfly addressed the meeting , callir . g on the secretary to read the minutes of last evening . " The subscriptions came pouring in as before . Mr . Laugton and Mr . Bergen , together with , tbo Secretary and other gentlemen were kept busy as on the previous night . "A great rush of contributions took place , and various sums were paid , amounting to 370 dollars . Mr .
Wallace deliTereti an eloquent address . An undertaking was read , signed by Mr . Johnilvttai , TO THB E * ¥ ECT THAT HE WatTLD LiT DOWJi 1 COO DOLLARS TO BEGIK A SUBSCRIPTION TO V 1 T OUT AS ARMY OF 2 . i , oeo men to ikvade Canada , and sweep tub BRITISH FROM THE CONTINENT OF AMERICA ; and he would undertake to gel one hundred men more to do ihe like—( tremendous ch « ering and excitement followed tnia announcement ) . ¦ The immenee meeting now adjourned to the ensuing evening , by giving three hearty cheers for OConnell and Repeal ere they dissolved .
THIRD NIGHT—WEDNESDAY , * ' The excitement increases as the subject is discussed . The short reports in the morning papers have £ lied the public mind with the utmost degree of excitement . Nothing is talked of but Ireland—nothi : * g written abcot by the editors but Ireland . The party differences about local politics " seem all to have given place to this one absorbing question , — shall we let England master all mankind ! * It became known , in the course of the day , that Governor Seward would preside , asd at an early hour the loom was literally packed with human beings .
FOURTH HIGHT—THCESDAY . " The excitement grows as each new revolution of the public mind flings out its burning particles of indignation . The evident otg = ct of England being tQ seizs off the possessions « f all those who are not strong enough to resist her concentrated arms , has aroused the quietest and dullest of our citizens to & sense of her injustice , and a spirit of resistance . Tfce daily press sow sera ;* on the question , and Irom end to « nd or this great Republic the word is gone forth—DO WU WITH THE ARISTOCRACY OF ENGLAND ! The room in Washington Hall vraa again crowded to the outer doors . The platform was again thronged by the wealthiest of our citizens—many , whose names we have given in our previous reports . In additien to these were present last night the venerable Thomas O'Cennor . Mr . Cur , late envoy abroad of the American Government , Mr . Shaw , Mr . Barber , Dr . Haulston , &c
F 1 TTH NIGHT—FRIDAY . " The Hall was as crowded to-night , as though it were the fir < t night of the agitation . We noticed several strangers on the platform , who took a very evident interest in the proceedings . The chair was taken on motion , by John Mullen , Esq . Mr . Bergen and Mr . Langton were at their posts , as well as the efficient secretary , Mr . B . O'Connor . The first business ef the evening was the receipt of money , and without any appeal to the feelingB of those present , the friends
of Ireland thronged around toe taWe , and commenced thtir patriotic deposits for the support of Ireland ' s cause . Many of these deposits were put in on variont conditions—some for the purpose of buying powderothers for the purpose of buying steel ! The treasurer , however , took all tbe money with the determination of fending it to the Repeal Association in = Ireland . We sa ^ men give thtii five dollars , which was probably the result of a whole week ' s earnings ; we give the amounts in another place . ' .
" A letter was Tead from James H . G-rady , Esq ., enclosing 6 dollars— £ being 3 do from each of his sons , M . J . Grady , and James H . Grady , Jan .. } and avowing his readiness to contribute again as often as the British Ministry should attempt to put down the movement for justice to Ireland with lead and steel . ( Loud cheers . ) " Ml James Bergen submitted a series of resolutions for the Government of the Kepealers of New-York on Monday , vtben the President should arrive . " The entire collection for the five nights staads as follows : — Dollars . Monday ... ... ... 622 Tuesday ... ... ... 368 Wednesday ... ... ... 246 Thursday ... ... ... 168 Friday ... ... ... 225
1628 ! " Total—sixteen hundred and twenty eight dollars i " From the same paper we give the following account of the part the " Repealers" played on the occasion of President Trc . £ B s public appearance in Kew York , to receive at the hands of the citizens a token of
regard" REGEPTION OF THE PRESIDENT . The day opened beauteouBly over the city on which the citizens of the commercial centre of our country assembled to testify their respect for the Chief Maswtrate of the United States . The atmosphere was balmy as a morning in spring . Hot a cloud appeared to threaten with a less brilliant close , the magnificence of the arranzements for the day . All was in keeping with the important aad patriotic duty which our citizens were about to discharge .
" At an early hour the streets were ' -thronged with busy crowds . The sounds cf fifes and drams , tee roar of musketry met tbe ear from every quarter , and from * very honse-top £ jat-d to the bretza , some national emblem , or soma appropriately devised ' banner . The flag of old Erin was seen conspicuously in front of the R-psalers hea £ quarters , Washington HaU , tirawa across Br « adiT 3 y , and Rave joy to man ; a bossin passing b «» ti . tn its aai ^ ic lotos , as the consideration arose cf her present position , = * id of the icle threats of terrified Brima ministers-, a » i felt ibat it was foretold that the < 5 ay -sas near on wnica a long insulted ptap ' e would raise it as their national ensign , amid ' the r » jucinj ! s and pUudits of the aviiizsd worid . Tue Rep-aJEM of the city had been i&vited ty the civil authorities , to participate in the preparations
made to receive the President ; and the post of honour , as his escort , had been assigned to them . In return , the Repealers had determined that nothing should be left undone , which could add interest or splendour to the scene in which they were to hold so conspicuous apiace ; for many days a committee of arrangementa had been labouring to introduce rachinsw featmes into the procession , as would cause it to be « membered when others ol like character in which they had takeu no great interest should bo forgotten . I At twelve at noon , about one thousand Sve hundred Repealers mounted oa horses of uneunalled beauty and great uniformity , ass % mbled at the Bowling Green . Each horse was decked out with greea ribbons and the ridsrs wore Bepeal badges and green cockades . They formed a corps of the abliest bodied aad most appro-

priately dre * £ bd mi-n that wo ever before saw assemb . ed together on a like occasion . They took line in the procession headed by their efficient Marshal and devoted Repealer , James Bergen , Esq ., accompan : ed , by that prince off ^ gbod fellows , and warm-hearted Irishman , his aidj-Iawrence Langton ; E ^ q ; , who drew up a corps of Bipealers on foot , numbering , at least , five thousand , each , wearing the Repeal badge ) the laiter were preceded by beautiful banners , and a magnificent barouche ( which , on the following two days , was used by the President of the United StateB ) with low
elegant and spirited grey chargers , 'the trappings of which were coveredientitely with green , . this contained Bome of the exiled patriots of ' 9 & , and two youths bearing banners , on iwhich were tasteful allusions to the straggle of these States and of Ireland for liberty from the unjust and oppressive laws of the same heartless tyrant ; following this barouche were many carriages containing the ¦ Executive Committee , the Treasurer , and Secretary of the Repeal Association ; then came four others , in which were the members of the Com * mittee of Arrangements for the day .
The whole of the procession , some four miles , was crowded with citizens wearing the R peal badge , and on all sides could be discovered some distinct mark of the kindly , feeling of our citizens for the legislative regeneration of unhappy Ireland . As the horsemen passed the monnments erected to the memory of those jjlnstrions Irishmen , Montgomery and Thomas Addis Emmet , in St . Paul ' s church-yard , the band baited , and they and tbe long line ef Repealers faced towards the tombs , withj 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 effect with every evidence that it was sincerely appreciated by the Repealers . It took the Immense conconrso which thronged the square by surprise , and many a heart best with admiration for the warm Impulses of that portion of our citizens , who so handsomely exhibited tbe respect they bore the cherished memories of the dead .
"The head-quarters was greeted with rapturous cheers—the great room of tbe Hall was thronged with ladies and invited guests of the committee , and from the windows Were displayed the waving handkerchief a of the f . tirest slaughters of our citizaus . Aftar 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 baa been , in these States , so magnificent and creditable a display on the part of our Irish adopted citizens ; and there never was a period at Which sosip similar exhibition of respect for the institutions and chief officers of our country was more needed than it now is . From some
few weak and contemptible presses do we hear it declared that they consider it impolitic to take any part with Buffering Ireland as American citizens . We ask such miserable cowards , base cringera to the Tory principles ; we ask those who ever are and ever will be the secret traitors to this conntry . to tell xaf what portion of the citizens of New York did most on Monday last , to show that they understood what was their duty as American cic ' zms ? We pause for a reply . We will ring it again and again in the ears of sneta men , that the Rtfpealera of New York , did themselves more credit in tbe late reception , nud escorting of tbe President of the United States than any other association , no matter for what purpose organiz ; il , in the whole of the route through which he passed . "
In addition to the x-xciting and enthusiastic manifestations of" sympathy" on the part of the Americans already detailed , a large out-door meeting was holden on Wednesday , June 14 ih , whioh the Truth Teller describes as ' tbe greatest assemblage of human beings ever gathered together at one time in New York . " Wo subjoin an epitome of the proceedings , directing especial attention to tbe address adopted to the French people . It is time that the English people ascertained the whole bearings of this " Repeal" question : —
TBE MASS MEETING IN THE PARK "The greatest assemblage of human beings ever gathered together in New York , for any purpose , was that which met last evening at the Park , to sympathise with Ireland ; At the lowest computation made , they numbered Thirty Thousand , whilst some rated it at Fifty Tbousund . At half-past six , the Committee , followed by a largo number of gentlemen , made their way amongst the dense masses to the temporary stand erected iu front of the City Hall . The large flight of ascending steps served for tbe distant crowd to stand on . The most excellent arrangements were made for the press , and we are sure that every paper ia the city was represented there . " On the motion of the Hon . John M'Keon , the Honourable Minthorne Tomkins' was called upon to preside .
" Tbe meeting being called to order the following resolutions-were moved by Edmund S . Kerry , Esq ., and their aduption moved by tbe Hon . J . M'Keon , in a powerful speech . ' Whereas , the Tory Ministry of Great Britain have promulgated a solemn 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 . •¦ Resolved * That the friends of Ireland In New York regard such declaration and threat with mingled feelings of indignation and horror .
" Resulved , As the love of justice Is a natural and Irrepressible instinct in tbe bofiobi of every Irishman , we see in this language of the Ministry no alternative but caraage aLd deesolation , unless that Ministry relent or are driven from thbir purpose ; for 8 000 . 000 of Irishmen , cheered on by tbe friends of liberty , justice , and humanity thoughout the civilised world , cannot be still under misrnle 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 and foreign policy , a rapacious and cruel disregard of the rights and interests of the people ; that it is a political monster , useful only to a class of comparatively insignificant numbers , covered with the plunder , and stained with the blood of unoffending nations ; acd that , however great our indignation , we feel uo surprise at its threatened course towards Ireland ,
" And whereas , although nothing can be hoped from the moral QerJua of such a Government ; yet , inasmuch aa tbe Englith people , if properly awakened to tbe necessity of enforcing it , have tbe power to do so ; and inasmuch as , that people axe brave , liberal and just , therefore , " Resolved , As the sense of tbiB meeting , that the sympathy of nationB properly expressed for Ireland ia well calculated to arouse this dormant power , acd affords the best and most effectual means of averting the calamities of civil war , and ultimately obtaining for Ireland the restoration of her own Legislature .
" Resolved , That under these circumstances , we deem it a moral duty of every inhabitant of the United States , of Irish birth or Irish descent , and highly praiseworthy and becoming in every citizen thereof , to contribute his voice influence and pecuniary aid to strengthen tbe hands of that band of Irish patriots , who with Mr . O'Connell at their bead , are now struggling to re-establish on Irish soil the rights and liberties of Irishmen . 11 Resolved—Tbat it is a sacred and most estimable right of every civzan of these States to sympathise with the oppressed of other climes in their tttngglts for libeity ; and that having exercised tbat right without a
murmur or reproach in favour of the Poles , the Greeks , and the South Americans—strangers to us in blood , language , and every tie of sympathy , save tbe great bond of common humanity , —ewe shall continue to disregard as the tffspring cf ignorance , or causes more discreditable , the censures of those who would deny us this privilege in the present instance ; where the oppressed are a people united by consanguity to a vast portion of our own , who contributed more than any other to erect and maintain the proud temple of eur national independence ; and the oppressor is that nation from which our country and its people have suffered tbe greatest wrongs .
•• Resolved : —That the friends of Ireland in America possess the power , by steady , permanent , and united action , to render tfieetual assistance to Daniel O'Connell and his compatriots in their virtuous efforts to restore to Ireland an independent Legislature , and that proper means oueht to be adopted to that end , " and therefore ' Resolved—If the other Repeal Associations concur , that Annual Convections of Delegates from tbe several Associations be henceforth held successively iu the different cities of the Union . Resolved— That the first Convention ba held iu this city on the 25 ih d&y of July , 1843 ; and that the places of holding future Conventions , the nianuer of convening the same , and tbe proper rueasims to be adopted for the organization of the f . iends of Ireland iu Auienci intoone united body of efficient sympathisers with thf R ? pealersof Ireland be considered and deterupon by that Convention .
" R ? 5 &Jved—• Teat John Caldwell , Esq ., the Trea-£ unr of this Association , a patriot of 98 , be , and he is hereby , directed to remit to the Treasurer of tbe Irish , Rtpeal Fund ; the balance of mocies iu his hand * . " Mx . ji"K-on TirjiS followed by Major Dev . zac , a veteran of 2 s e » Orieana , "who brought up the following adilrtss to the French nation , which was chceTbd at the conclusion of each soul-stirring paragraph : —

"On an occasion thus solemn , the thoughts , tbe hopes of the multitude assembled here , naturally turn towards the hwuic people , whose history has always presented to the world , from the time when a Frenchman freed the tomb of Christ from Saracen bondage to the memorable day when the Freneb restored Greece to the fellowship of Christian nations , as tbe fated ally of every oppressed people .

It matters not what puny barriers despotism may oppoae to the : spread of the thoughts it embodies , on this , or any other subject , whether relating to politics or to science . They travel over the worldsometimes like the mild summer ' s breeza tbat agitates only to purify the air ; sometimes , too , like the tempest that prostratea all tbat resist it . Tae mighty cause unseen—the effect undented !
Frenchmen { Speaking to you in behalf of Ireland , we invoke the remembrance of an alliance of centuries between the Gauls and ! the Green Isle I We evoke the remembrance of those battle fields where the Berwicks , the Laliy ' s , the Sarsfield ' s , the Dillon ' s , tbe Hamilton ' s , tbe Elliots , the Mac Donalds , have mingled their blqod with the blood of your warriors , wherever the white flag or the glorious tri-colour have wa-Fecl . We entreat your sympathies for tbe wrongB of their descendants , recalling to your memorj the joyous acclaims with which Irishmen , whether at home or wandering in Exile , have ever hailed your triumphs —the deep sorrow they have ftver felt In the days of your adversities . Tbe generous compassion you avowed for Greece ; that wbish every yeat your representatives
txpressfor the Pvlefl ; F eDchmen . ' we ask them now for Ireland ! foi Ireland mote oppressed than Greece , sufferiog 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— w « pray Lamartine to make the sufferings of Ireland tbe theme of some other angel inspired meditations—we entreat Victor Hugo to awake for martyred Erin , lovely and guiltles , like bis own Esmeralda , ;—aud like her too ,. remorselessly tortured—by tyranny and relentless intolerance , —that deep pity f » r
real miseries which the weird accords of bis Lyre have ¦ so often inspired for fictitious sorrows . We call on : Beracgerto aipg again , —ihia silence too , when freedom shrieks , is a public calamity !)—not those n » tes of mirth-! ful glee which in tho wild days of his youth , glad-I doned France ; but those mournful strains he modu-1 fated ;« hen Napoleon fell , betrayed by Fortune—when a generous nature groaned under the sway of foreign invaders . We implore ARago to avert his eyes from j theetherial regions where all they dwell upon ia harmony and beauteous order , and tot , view , for a moment , a spot on this globe made lovely by nature but rendered ' hideous by the man-inflicted wretchedness of its inha-! bitants . We entreat the grrat historians and
enronif clersiof France— Thiers , Miche / et , Thiery . Slignet , nilemain , Barenie , Pierre Roujc , Thebodeatuc—to 1 record tbe wrongs of Ireland , in annuls that will never dl =.

Tocqueville , > Beaumont , Lilande , Mogu ) n , G-irnier Pages , Uupfure —nay , wo call on Snult , oh GuzDt too , the Ministers ¦ of a people-made King , to be the advocates of Ireland , at that tribune where the ; wisdom of tbe statesman , 1 tbe ekquence of the orators of France have so often ! revived the remembrance of the moat glorious epochs of Greece and of Rome .

" JOHN MKEO . V , ^ Committee I "JOHN T . WYMBS , J " The address was read-and adopted amid thunders of applause . While Major Davtzac was reading the address to tbe French nation , the meeting was yery agreeably interrupted by the appearance of several Irish Societies and Ward meetings with splendid banners , preceded by a band playing the airs of Ireland , and led to the meeting by Mr . Michael Connolly , who rode before the procession . " lilr . Carr followed Major Davezac in a powerful and statesmanlike speech , in wbicb , on behalf of America , he dared Sir Robert Peel to lay hands ou O Council . This' produced the most . dea f ening cheers we ever beard . He threatened him with the immediate loss of Canada—with a rev . > lt of four uilliops of CuaRTISTS—WITH THE MOVEMENT OF THE FKENCH , AND THE IMMEDIATE HOSTILITY OF AMERICA . All these topics excited the people
terribly . Mr . Carr moved the following resolution which was adopted unanimously" Resolved—That believing tbat the cause of Repeal is the cause of Freedom and good government , and that the success of the cause is essential not only to the happiness of Ireland , but to the interests of true Liberty throughout the world , we as the happy subjects of a Free Government cannot but regard with feelings ef the strongest indignation the threat to check the agitation of the subject by the bayonet and tbe 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 all their energies upon Ireland , but to reserve some of their military resources for the Canadas and the Uuited States . ' " Mr . Melville and Mr . Batberalso addressed the meeting , when Mr . M'Keon moved an adjournment .
• ' Mr . Melville then called for three cheers for ' Ireland , O'Connell , and Repeal , ' which were given with a Bpirit we never beard equalled . Tbe evening being tine and still , tbe cheeriug was heard in several streets surrounding the Park . " We cannot conclude this setting forth of the Movement in America in aid of the Repeal of the Irish Union , without giving the Leading Article of the Truth-teller of the loth of June last ; the paper from which wo havo extracted the matter already given . From that Article the people of Great Britain will learn what are the feelings , desires , and expressed intentions of : the " " American "
sympathisers . " It is of the last importance that they should so learn them . We give the article at full length , that thore may be no possibility of misconception or misunderstanding on the part Of the ! reader . Here it is , ever ; word : and it is of the j gieattBt consequence . Let it be weli pondered over - ' and let it prompt to a right and just course of action . The dangers by which we are surrounded are in- ! creasing on every hand . It is only by a prudent and timely " concession" of j ustice that we can avert them : —
" IRELAND HER OWN J OR THE WORLD IX A BLAZE ! ! " We transmit to Ireland , to-day , by the Acadla , several tfeouaand copies of the Truth Teller . We have addressad them to the Ciergy and chief Repealers of Irel 3 Dd—of the N Jrth—of the South—of the Wentof the East , of that persecuted land . We transmit to them the voice of New Y *> rk in their behalf . And not only the voice of Newi York , but of the millions of American Freemen , \ sho have been aroused into active itsibtaice by the audacious threats of the British Ministry . We say resistance , delibarately ; for ,
should the foolish impotent Minister dare to put bis threat imo execution , that moment would the om- raged spirit of fifteen millions of American freemen fl / to aruis in behalf of Ireland . The parchment troa-ies about boundaries would soon be broken , and the , firdt thought of every m in would be to overthrow the power of Eugland . Canada would soon be filled with tbe volunteer citizens of America ; and Canada , in three short weeks , would bean independent RepabUc . —¦ Nay , } more , the British would be whipt out of their North American Colonies , and their power in this part of God ' s created world would cease for ever ; would pass from existence
• ' Like the baseless fabno of a vision ! Leaving not a wreck behind . ' Hew many there are along , the Northern shores of this continent who pant for such : a consummation 1 See tbe rich priz that would in such an event be thrown open to tbe world . The Fishing Banks of Newfoundland and the coasts of the British Provinces , 'richer than Pluto ' s mine / would then become the common property

of Euruj e and A n § . \ -a . At r resen * . that vast natural treasure b ^ arde t \> y tlie T-ry au . horities of England . It if true that tn « United States have secured -to them some Beconiiary rights to fish in these submarine valleys j but these rights are stripped of many of the advantages which English ' fishermen enjoy . Of course , they are : for the very essence and nature of'British policy is monopoly , exclusion , tyranny ! " Once let Itelaudibe stricken and this vast sub-marine treasure is open to me 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 ittothesixand twenty free States cf this Republic- —or erecting it into an Independent ! Republic , based on its own bardy nonulation ! The Irishmen of the sincle State of New
York alone would accomplish this feat . [ See the proposal of Mr . Mullen , in the ' second dayV proceedings of the New York Repealers ] . Once let Ireland be stricken , and there is not a society of Irish Repealers in America that would not furnish its quota of money , men , and military stores to the struggling patriots of the Green Isle , despite the efforts of the general Government ; of the United States to the contrary . Let Ireland [ be stricken by the first Saxon mercenary ; and the moment the news arrives here ber manufactures will be j flung into tbe sea from every ship bearing her colours' in oar harbours by tbe outraged people of America , from Boston to New Orleans . Boston ! glorious Boston ! would be tbe first to do it . But no . The Irishmen of New York would be tbe first to retaliate on the oppressors of their father-laud . There will not be a British ship left entire in tbe harbour of New York on tbe evening of that day when the news arrives that Ireland is stricken !
" This is the resolve of the Repealers of America ! an'd they have the power to put it into execution at every port ef this great Continent . Let Ireland be stricken by a single hostile shot—let any of ber sanctified clergy or her ndomitable champion O'Connell be arrested in their peaceful agitation , then would the 250 , 000 Irishmen in London , tbe 80 , 000 Irishmen in Manchester , tbe 9 ! o , ooo Irishmen in Liverpool , the 80 , 000 Irishmen in Glasgow , be called upon by . the voice of nature and country to retaliate ! And what have they not in their bands to accomplish ? Have they not power to { destroy the commercial power of England by a simultaneous burst . Aye , the whote of her manufacturing piles could be given to the flames in a single night ! and would be given , were tbe bloodhounds of Toryism let loose on the people of Irelani . . " Thank heaven 1 tbe people ef Ireland have butgrown their manacles—have established a foreign policy sufficient to check the toe aad even subdue bis power , if tbat be necessary to their freedom and
happiness . | " France , the old and natural enemy of England—France the old and } natural friend of Ireland—will be again , in tbe day of trial , on the side of virtue and Erin . But the people of Ireland are a match even as they stand for the Peelitea . Subtracting from the eight and a half to nine . millions , which compose the population , the 500 , 000 ^ Ep iscopal Protestants who are supposed to be so wedded to the Established Church , tbat they would even fight to uphold the corrupt mass j subtracting these , we sky , from tbe population of Ireland , there yet remain eight millions , whose interest clearly is the well-being and happiness of Ireland . Hew js this power to be dealt with ? They are sober , anted , and disciplined . They are led to the fields of meeting
even now , by their Clergy , and led back ani dismissed with military precision ! They are instructed from the altar of God , on the duties they owe him—and from tbe same sacred tribunal , and by the same consecrated lips , they are lestured on the duties they owe to liberty and their native land l What force has Peel to smother this combination of Spiritual , moral , and physical power ? The sabre ? Ah ! the pike would confuse as truly as the sabre ! Let Peel remember the battles of Wexford , Eaniscorthy and Vinegar Hill . Let him remember ' the Castlebar Races' and Ballinamuck 1 The pike did ail in those places I and ] though by his Arms Bill and bis police be hath disarmed the Irish people , we tell him even from this , that a million of steel pikes could be manufactured and sent to Ireland in two weeks
from the first hostile movement he may make . When the French landed ] in Killala , in 1798 , to aid the patriots , they distributed muskets amongst the peasantry—but the peasantry soon flung them away , and rushed to the charge with their favourite weapon , the pike ; and history tells how they made General Lake and 20 , 000 rezulars fly before them ! Every nation has its favourite weapon . The pike { galiheen ) is the favourite weapon of the Irish . Every parish smiddy knows how to make it—every peasant knows how te use it ! A million of pikes could be manufactured in a month , in Ireland .- ! so in physicals Sir Robert would not have it all his own way . " Again , what may the force be tbat the Tories could bring ? The ninety , or one hundred thousand military which they call ttie 'Queen ' stroops' are one half at least Irishmen , and Catholics—and is it too much to add—are Repealers . Doea the history of despots
furnish no instance of volunteers from their seared slaves rushing to the standard of liberty ? Ay , many ! And are we to be told that the army of Ireland contains no Marshal Neys ? j no Mehemet Alis ? Forbid the thought , Goddess of sacred Liberty ! Then where- are those troops of thej 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 aj thousand men can be spared from all the Qaeen ' B possessions abroad . Sir Robert cannot attack Ireland with a to ^ ce less Iban 200 000 armed and disciplined men . These cannot be armed and disciplined by a magical invincible process . We must see and hear the thing . j And the moment we do see and hear it , why , then we may possibly put tb . 8 Irish people in possession of a 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 ptoteebnist , whose name is known to some members of the Executive Committee of the United Irish Repeal Association , but who for obvious reasons would at present remain unknown , that be is the inventor and sole possessor of a new destructive projectile , by j which he is able , with the greatest secresy , accuracy , land certainty to destroy , at one shock , any edifice in England , or any ship upoD the Irish coast ; and that npon tbe instant when it shall be known that British ! steel has , ou Irish soil , drawn Irish , blood , be will , as an American hater of despotism , take the necessary measures to place this power at the disposal of Daniel O'Connell and tbe Irish people . also declares his to assist in
" 'He willingness fortifying the Harbours ojf Ireland upon this new , cheap , and terribly effective plan ; and having tried it , he can convince even the chance victor of Waterloo , that the combined Navy of JEngland could not enter Cork Harbour without tbe certainty of destruction to every ship and to every mac JHe is ready to go to-morrow , and asks no man ' s aid in this enterprise . ' " Now , who is « j James Barren' ? We will tell Sir Robert tbat he is a relative of Bishop Higgins , and the Grand Marshal of the Repealers of the City of New York I " Sir Robert will perceive tbat the Repealers of America are armed at all peiuts . 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 speclacles wbicb wt > furnish , them with to-day . j " We are not leagued together here for the injury of the English nation . ] We believe the English nation , as distinguished from ihe aristocracy , are strongly in favour of restoringj the Parliamentary power of Ire land . This is attested by Mr . Mooney in his judicious address oa the ' Fourth N < ght' Tne great body of the people of England have already declared unequivocally for Repeal . A ; nd the great body of tbe people of England are as tired of Tory and Whig rule as the people of Ireland . I Sir Robert then will have to carry the war into Birmingham , Leeds , and Manchester , aa well as into Dublin , Kilkenny , and Limerick . "The Funds and tbe Factories— the Rents and the Tythes—th » places and the pensions—the possessions abroad and the monopolies at bome are at stake on the
one side , and the resolute millions of England and Ireland are prepared on the other side to risk their lives on the issue ! " Will tbe Qaeen , tbe judicious , humane Victoria , risk the blood of all her people to gratify the blood-thirsty disposition of thosa very Tories , who threatened to force her to abdicate her throne , not three short years ago ?! "Will sb *» , who when a girl , had the courage to dismiss Peel and Wellington when they only threatened to deprive her of her bed chamber , now that she is a woman and a mo * htr , halt in her obvious duty to her throne anii ^ di gnity ? now when Peel threatens to plunge her p . ?> uie into the borrors of C : * i ! War ? We opine pot . Courage then peeple of Ireland . Arise , in the majesty of your united milli ' -ns , from the centre to t&o txtremities of Ireland—and
demand your natural rights . Dj this with the delicacy anU precisiou ot < li » cipiiiitd men . Resort to no vi \) - l-nce of any sort in your constitutional struggle wrh Peel . Be as inoffensive as children . Avoid all secret councils . The li ^ pealtra of America wiil send no secret einis 3 j . rio 3 aiimn ^ st jou . Whatever Ih ^ y dtem best for your interes ; they will do opeuly . Dj nut suffer yourselves to pa trepanned into any secret society of any sort . Follow the aiivice of your patriotic clergy ; and when ever that saucUlie *! body call you into the field in defence of your libeties , the people of America will jpenly arm in your support There is no force in A tugrics than c ^ n | or will stop them in their determination . Every American—every man , woman , and child of this great Republic , is thoroughly convinced of
the piratical disposition of England—of her design to acquire universal sway 1 In all parts of this vast Republic are to be found expatriated Englishmen—the victims of the persecutions directed against the Char * tista These men burn for an opportunitylto be avenged on the aristocracy of Eugland . That opportunity will be furnished by Sir Robert , the moment he attempts to pat his threat into execution . The aulma 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 ker the sympathies of the lovers of Justice , ip every nation . The ] whole American press is against her . The cities and towns ia the West and in the South and in the * East are assembling to protest

We do not attempt to describe the excitement that prevails in new York .

State op Chimb . —As is usual , we have increased crime with diminished employment iu thiB distriot . There are at present forty prisoners for trial at Durham during the quarter sessions next weekthirty seven for trial in and from Newcastle alone * and twenty from the county of Northumberland . Of those for trial in Newcastle twelve are under fifteen years of age . —Tyne Mercury . A Rich Beggar—A man of about sixty years old was arresied on Friday for beaming . He was taken before the commissary of police at La Chapelle and searched . There was found oa him the sum of 14 , 000 fr . in gold , which he carried in a belt round bis waist . —Galignani .
An Alarming Appetite . —A cadaverous Scotch peer , having put . up av an hotel in London , was waited upon by the landlord , who produced his Bill of fare . Hia Lordship , declining to patronise any of the dishes enumerated , mused a moment or two . and then said , " I think , landlo rd , I could eat a morsel of a poor man ! " Boniface bolted in a fright : he was not aware ih at a " poor man" wai the Scottish name for the blade-bone of a shoulder of mutton . PrintiuGv—Among the fanciful novelties of the day is a patent , whioh has been taken out for a mode of printing called mi-type , b y means of whioh the expenses of printing , paper , and binding would , according to the patentee , be diminished by half . The mi-type may be thus shown . Take a flat rule ,
and place it on a line of print , so as to cover the lower half of the letters , and the line may be read with ease . This , however , is not the case , if we cover tho npper half . The reason is , says the inventor , that we never look at the lower part . The patentee , therefore , proposes to have a type composed of the upper half of the letters . —Galignani . Prison v . Workhouse . —An inquest was recently taken by Mr . Ball , one of the county coroners , at the Honse of Correction at Hersley , Gloucestershire , on Hester Wakefield , a woman upwards of fifty years of age , and of weak intellect , who had been committed for assaulting the matron of the union
poorhouse at Stroud . Before the term of her imprisonment expired she was taken ill , and , being unfit to be removed , she remained and died in prison , having expressed her wish to die there rather than be removed to the union-house . It appeared that every attention was paid her , and the jury returned a verdict that she died from natural causes , by the visitation of God . It was stated that another person , who had been committed a short time before from the same poor-house , said , on leaving the prison , that he should soon return ; and that soon after his arrival at the poor-house he broke some of the windows there , for the express purpose of again returning to the prison .
