Dza 3 Sib , —I addressed a Tery jjood open-air jBcetii . ^ of the Chartist ? of Dumfries , on Monday erauES August 14 th . Conaderable enthaaasm was manifested by my auditors , and my return to the * Qxeen of Ike S ^ nth" at an early period , was Trarndj urged by my kind-hearted and truly patriotic friends . There are someoFibe most ardent and ihorcasn-gomg democrats in Dumfries that it has ever becai my good fortnne to meet ¦ vrilh . A wellconDncced Re&ding-Tozm , continued through the Trod < d" times , and under the most disheartening rinsnn caaces . has bBeniliB bosd x > f onion which has
kept tbe " good men and true" of this locality together . Fer a considerable time pastmneh apathy "hn . gr prevailed ; bat the train -of reaction appears to ie laid , and only requires the flame « f English agitatioD to be rekindled to set tie democratic spirit of Dnmfrses once more on fire . Even as it is , the Chartists are the moral masters of the town ; and faction and mere party cannot breathe in its purified a * Tno £ > b « re . Neither the "freebooters" nor any olcr -description of state-qnacks can exist in it . Pnblie opinion is here guided by men of intellect , coinage , aad political honesty . Uniting the mind of So ? Uand with the energy of England , lew places can © ia-riTa 3 the " Qaeencf the South " .
As s putter of course" bKng in Dumfries I paid , my dc \ irtiens to the shade of immortal Bbrks . _ J had Ticked his tomb in January 1840 , at which jitth » I sad the honcnr of supping with Robert , the eldest ksi , of the poet . I now , for the second time paid a visii to the grave of fieedom ' s baroV Having do iEDTsiudge of arcitecmre , I am incompetent to describe tie Mausoleum . The nearest thing I can liken it to in ontward fonn is a Turkish mosque , on a small f ^ ale .

On this snijtct I can ay nothing i for I am no bnmpologiEt . " The inscription 1 mush admired : it is amply—BURNS .

The church-yard , or rather kirk-yard , in which $ b . B asiios * f Burns repose , is a most wonderful place ; contsJT-. aga greater number of monuments , —^ some ofjhecof a very superior order ^— than I have seen in other part of Britain . It is a sort of city of the dead ; & Palyrma in miniature ; and , independent cf Bunt ' s tomb , 13 well -worth a visit . The " MariyrTs stoiiSj" a monument erected to Ihe memory of soxnB of the murdered covenanters is an object of psr&c&lsr interest .

On inquiry , 1 learned that the ** youn g lords" were expected homeihai dzr ; and that "his Grace" was expected on the following Saturday , I believe the Duke has the Teputiiloa of being a very fair landlord 5 I am glad that I can say this much for him .

nock , 1 found myself in Ayrshire . Finally , after a walk of eighteen miles , I Teaebei Old Conmock and put up at the Black Bull Inn . j 1 saw several old friends in the coarse of the evening . Chartism is for the present down in Cunraock . i Wednesday , Angust 16 th . Anniversary of the Manchester Massacre . May that j day of blood never be forgotten until its stains , by ] ample justice , are effaced from ihe page of British history !! Left Cumnock by the coach at eight o ' clock , and , passing through Katrine , was speedily at Mauchline . Here I wasmet by my friends , and received with all that warmth of affection so characteristic of the people of this beautiful portion of Scotland . )
Passing over all domestic matters , which could be of no interest to the Chartist public , I corns now to my visit to the birth-place of Burns . Friday , August 18 th . Accompanied by a brotherin-law , I started for Ayr , which we reached after a walk of eleven miles . We breakfasted at an excellent Scoteh hostelry j and after calling on a friend or two , proceeded on our mission , accompanied by two friends from Ayr . Alloway Kirk , so renowned as ths scene of the exploits of the [ famed Tarn o ' Shanter , is situated about tbree miles from Ayr , on the road to May bole . The cottage in which the poet was born is near the Sirk , and on the Ayr side of it . It is a low-built , old fashioned thatched honse , having only a gronnd floor . It has long been
used as a public-bouse ; and , as such , is now kept by the widow of the late John , better known as Miller Gondie . Before crossing the threshold , the attention of the visitor is arrested ! by two boards , one on each sice of Ike door . The : inscription on the one runs thnB : — " Burns * Cottage . Robert Burns , the Ayrshire Poet , was born under this roof , on the 25-A of Jaauary . A . D . 1759 . Died 21 st of Jnly , A . D . 1796 , aged 37 £ years . ' The inscription on the other is simply— " Mrs . Goudie , licensed to retail ale and Fpints . " Within the honse , in the usual drinking room , is a large portrait of Burns , with the inscription of the < iate of his birth . The most interesting articles in the room are three tables , « nt and backed with tVionsands of names and
initiate , of tbe ^ pilgrims who , from time to time , have visiled the birth-place of the baTd . j The windows are scratched , and the chairs and corner cupboard are carved after the same fashion . 1 b the kitchen we were shewn the bed , or rather bed-place , where the poet was born . In the parlour attached to the kitcnen are several excellent plates , including a representation of the " Jolly Beggars , ; " the " Cotters ' Saturday Jvight / ' and a portrait of Burns when young . Old Mrs . Gsudie is a fine
" cracky" body ; and rhymes away her tales about Burns in a manner plea-sing enough . We staid bnt a short time ; and having entered our names in the book kept for that purpose , departed . The next spot of interest -was the Auld Kirk , dismantled of its roof , and nothing left but bare walls . I looked through the : key-hole , but neiiher Auld Kick , witches , or " Cutty Saik" were to be seen . The ** haly table" was gone , and with n its contents and the attendant ** ghaists . " All was desolation . But the " Auld Kirk * ' will still
" Live is tbe verse that immortally saves , " when every stone of which it is composed shall have mixed with the dust where its immortalizer
reposes . In the Kirk yard is the grave of William Burns , tbe father , and Agnes Brown , tbe . mother of the poet . A plain bnt substantial stone marks the spot with the following inscription ;—u Sacred to tfce memory of William Burns , fanner in Loehlie , who died on the 13 : h of February , 1784 , in the 63 rd year of his agc ^ uid of Agnes Brown , his spou ?* , who died on the 14 ih of January , 1820 , in the 88 i year of her age . She was interred in Bolton Church-yard . East Lothian . " . On the reverse side , the well-known lines" O ye whose cheek the tear of pity stains 1 Draw near with pious reverence , and attend : Hera lie the loving husband ' s dear remains , The tender father , and the generous friend . The pitying heart that felt for banian woe ;
The dauntless heart that feared no human pride ; The friend of man ; to vice alone a foe ; For « ven his failing ' s lean'd to vjrtne ' smde . *" Prom the "Auld Kirk" we proceeded to the * " Monument " . For reasons already assigned , I must decline attempting a description . Enough that it is a splendid structure ; and one that no man or woman of taste will fail to visit . To ; it may be most appropriately applied the lines written by the poet " for an Altar to Independence "— - " Thou of an independent mind ,, With soul resolved , with soul resigned ; Prepared power ' s proudest frown to brave ; Wiio -ariU sot be , nor have a alare ; Tiituealone who dost revere ; Thy own reproach alone dost fear I Approach thu shrine , and -worship here . "
Bat while the * Monument is worthy of all admiration ; not so the conduct of that class who patronised its erection . " Seven cities contend for Homer dead ! Through which tbe livinyTlomtr begged hla bread , " says some one ; and , though literally this was not the case with Burns , it was neaily ^ so 1 Who that remembers his dyisg appeal to his Edinburgh bookseller— " For God ' s sake to send him Five Pounds " , to = ave him from a prison , bui will join with me in regarding this cold stone pile as a monument of the mtauncss , as well as pride , of the Scottish Aristocracy .
Within the " Monument , and enclosed in a glass case , are the two Bibles of Burns and hiB Highland Mary , recovered by some enthusiastic Scot in Canada . The story has bat very recently gone the round of the press ; and I have not space to repeat i ; here . A portion of Mary ' s hair is in one of the Bibles , and shews her to have been of fair complexion . The next object which excited our curiosity was tbe faaltless figures of " T&m o * Shanter and Sonter Johnny , " the work of the celebrated Mr . Thorn .
Here , again , I must decline to attempt a description ; a task for which 1 confess my incompetence . Enougbf that admiration , the most fervent , was the all-absorbing feeling of my mind , while entranced with gazing on this almost matchless production of human skill , which only seems to require the Promethean spark to call ** Tam" and his * f worthy , trusty , dronthy croney" into actual breathing , feeling existence . All eke seems perfect . { The cold stone seems ready at a word to burst into joyous , laughing life .
We next visited Mungcra Well f and I took a hearty draught to the memory of Burns from the pure , cold , chrystal stream . Lastly we visited the Auld Brig , " where Tarn ' s mare Meg ** lost her tailf and from it * summit gaztd down upon tbe " banks and jbraeB o * Bonnie Doon ; " a scene lovely as Eden , and beautiful as Elysium , I almost wished myself a Scot as I gloated on its charms . But time pressed . I left the hallowed ground . 1 may never—or years may elapse ere I tread it again ; bnt the remembrance of its glories shall live green in my memory , while brain throbs , or heart beats within . I returned the same evening to Mauchline .
I am writing this in the very heart and centre of tbe ** Land of BnrnB . " Within the jvillage are many spots famed in his writings : " PooBie-NansieV immortal beggarscrib;— " Auld Nance Tinnock's , " no longer a -whiskey-shop , and shorn of all its glories ; Mossgiel , the farm of the poet , is within a , quarter of a mile , where are the fields where be cut down the * daisy , " and turned np the nest of the *' mouse "— -the exquisite lines' on both these subjects are almost universally known and as widely admired ; the ** Braes of Bafiocmyle" are within a short distance of the Tillage ; so is Barskimming , near which is the spot where Burns conceived his
" Man was made to mourn . At Trellford still resides in the asylum for the aged poor of the parishes of Manchline and Tarbolton , James Humphrey , the famous ** blethering bitch f in tbe neighbourhood is the small burn where Burns part * d with ** Highland . Marv , " each standing on rhe opposite sides of the stream and exchanging bibles and vows of their eternal affection . At Coilsfield House Mary resided as a servant ; and in the grounds is shewn tbe thorn tree , reputed to ha . ve overshadowed the lovers for some hours before their sad and fiijal separation : — | " How sweetly bloomed the gay green birk ,
How rich the hawthorn ' s blossom , As underneath its fragrant shade , I elasj > "d hex to my bosom J The golden hours on angel wings Flew o ' er me and my dearie ; For dear to me as light and life , Was my sweet Highland Mary . ' * Again to " Mary in Heaves , " the scene is thus btantifully pictured" That sacred hour can I forget , Can I forget the hallow'd grove , Where , by the winding Ayr we met , To live one < lay of parting love ! Eternity -still not eSace ¦ Those record * dear of transports past ; Thy image at our list embrace ; ¦ Ah little thought we twas our last 1

This is the clime of beauty and of song . Female loveliness seems to be part and parcel of the natural beauty of the soil . I have travelled B&t a little in the land of both Saxon and Gael ; but of all spots I visited commend me to the " Land of Burns" for forms to inspire a poet's soul . Reader fart thou asivgle man ! Hast thou an eye for beauty , and an ear for the poet ' s lay 1 and dost thou doubt my praises of thiB Scottish Eden ? Come , worship at the shrine of Burns !

abused , they intended now to bribe . Oh ! what a chance there was of striking their priests ? Formerly , the same price was set on the head of a priest &s on that of a wolf , £ 5 ; and although there were in those days-gentlemen who were priest-catchers , not one betrayed the priest . The people and the priests we £ e true to each other in former days of Buffering ; they would still be faithful id each other ; and he would let their enemies bribe the priests if they couJd . Their opponents had another trick . They calculated thai the people of Ireland would bs tired of looking forliboriy . He would 1 promise the Minister that they would not tire . Before the expiration of the week he would publish , hia plan for the restoration of the Irish Parliament . They of course , acknowledged Victoria as their Queen , God blesa her , and they would maintain all her prerogatives . The Irish House of Lords would be acknowledged with
all [ its privileges , and they would insist upon tbe Irish House of Commons having the number of tbree hundred members . He would submit to the public the ' number of counties , and towns which should have representatives in the Irish Parliament . The machinery of hia plan for proceeding for the Repeal would be laid before the people , and he had no doubt they would aerioijisly read it . Their Buooess was at hand . He read in the signs of the times and in the actions of men that tho hour was Come when Ireland should have her own Parliament , and when heri virtuous , faithful , and religious people would be free , prosperous , and happy —( loud cheers ) . Mr . Dillon , barrister , proposed a vote of thanks to the Roman Catholic clergy ; after which the Honourable Mr . Ffreach having beeu proposed to the chair , thanks were given to the previous chairman , and the meeting dispersed iu an orderly manner .
THE DINNER took place in a pavilion ' erected in the old marketbouse . About 500 persons sat down . Mr . French , who presided at the proceedings of the day , was the chairman . After the cloth was drawn letters of apology were read from the Rev . Dr . M'Hale , Dr . Brown , 11 . C , Bishop of Galway ; Dr . Cant well , Bishop of Meatb , & 0 . , A . o . The uBual loyal toasts having been given , The Chairman gave " O'Connell and the Repeal " —( 'loud cheers ) . Mr . O'Connell , in responding to the toast , said that they had really taken him by surprise by the extent of their arrangements a-nd the magnificence
of their demonstration that day . The Bcene of today had struck their enemies with terror , and was to their friends an exhiliarating assurance of success —( cheers ) . He would return to Dublin in triumph , and leave their pitiful little landlords to devise their dirty little schemes—( cries of " Castle Kelly ") . Did they miss him \ No ! and by the course of the person alluded to had taken , perhaps he had seen more honest faces around him that day than he was accustomed to—( cheers ) . He ( Mr . O'Connell ) intended to propose to them a resolution that day , agreeing to petition for the abrogation of the thing called a Catholic oath . If the meeting had been a . smaller one , and his mind had not been so taken up , he would have done ao , but he promised them
that he would let no other meeting pass wittiout proposing a petition to abolish that path —( cheers ) . For it was witnout example , and it was not to be endured that Booundrole and hypocrites should insult them , and that they should be taunted and insulted every other day by Broughams and Beaumonts ( Cheers ) . He never would have consented to any arrangement including that oath , if he did not conceive that they would have put the same construction upon ic as they did upon the coronation oath . Nothing but tho most prejudiced malignity could have dared to attach the imputation of perjury to a body of Christians who were not emancipated for years , because they would not consent to ptvrjure thembelvoa . ( Hear , hear ) . Than be 8 ubj « ct to such
intuits , they ought rather not take the oath any more , and fling the Emancipation iu their teeth ; for that which bo had wrung from them before , he could get from them a second timo . ( Loud cheering ) . As to tho wretch Beaumont , they had heard of his conduct 10 a lady at Florence , and he ( Mr . O'Connell ) felt that he was degrading himself in not treating him vi ith contempt and scorn . The other wretch , Brougham , was the most degraded of human beings . What would he who talked of perjury , not do to procure for himself place and promotion . ( Hear , hear ) . He was a man of great talent , considerable powtr of rho . oric , but he degraded it to a civil bill attorney , sort of eloquence . His present position reminded one of the cautionary lines of the poet , which he would adapt to
him" If parts allure tbee , think bow Brougham abieed , The brightest , maddest , meansst of mankind . " ( Cheers ) . The Honourable and Learned Gentleman then called on them to tally round him , to b » conciliatory and firm , and Ireland should belong to tke Irish . After several other toasts the company separated . In tbe course of the evening several large sums of money were collected . — ^

relative population ; and the number of members to be assigned to each was then set forth , and the report proceeded as follows : — " The population is taken from tke returns of 1831 , which having been made for a different purpose , and without any ] reference whatever to the Repeal of the Union , furnish a 6 cale of unquestionable impartiality , j " 6 . It ia proposed that the right of voting should be what ia called ' Household Suffrage , ' requiring six months' residence in the counties ; with the addition in the ] towns of married men resident for twelve months , whether householders or not . " 7 . It is proposed , that the mode of voting for members of Parliament should certainly be by ballot . I

The Monarch de facto of England at all times hereafter , whoever he may be , shall be monarch dc jure in Ireland , j And bo in case of a future regency , the Regent de facto ia England to be Regent dejure in Ireland . j " 9 .

J " The foregoing plan to be carried into effect according to recognized law , and strict constitutional principle . \ " Signed by order , 1 " Dawiel O'Connell , " Chairman of the Committee . "
Mr . O'Connellj continued to say , that he threw this repoTt abroad for the consideration of tbe Irish people , for there was no remedy for their wrongs but the carrying of that plan into execution . If there was any dissent from it—if any portion of the country complained of partiality—they would adopt any proper amendment submitted to th > m , but they would not lightly change it . Nothing but an overwhelming conviction would make them * swerve from it , and he trusted it would be unanimously adopted there at their meetings . They had now nothing to do but to carryjit into effect—( cheers ) . His own opinion was chat the Royal prerogative was sufficient to restore to Ireland her Parliament—( load

It would be remembered that when King James abdicated , the Parliament began by appointing William as King , and then proceeded to enact that all ( they had done when without a king , during the abdication of James , was legal .

They should get rid of everything which even the meanest and { basest of humaa beings could call equivocation —( cheers ) . The Association then ao'journed until to-morrow .

An address to Mr . AT wood was passed at a large public meetiBg , as reported in the ] Star , but the Birmingham Journal
refused to insert it ! Naw , working men , who are your real friends , and who are not ?

He proceeded to ' empty his pocket of the cash and communications with whioh they werofiiledj and was occupied for a
considerable time in stating the names of tbe contributors , and reading their letters . Amongst the latter was one from a priest in the county of Roscommon , enclosing a subscription of fifty-three ladies of his parish , every one of whom , the rei . writer stated , was " ready to become a Maid of Orleans , if necessary .

The people of Ireland do firmly insist upon the restoration of the Irish House of Commons consisting of 300 representatives of the Irish people ; and claim , in the presence of their Creator , the right
of the people of Ireland to 6 uch restoration . They have submitted to the Union as being binding as a * law ; but they declare solemnly that it is not founded on right , or on constitutional principle ; and that it is not obligatory upon conscience . They agree with the Tory Attorney-General Saurin that the only binding power of the Union is the strength of the English domination . They also agree with him that resistance to the Union is in the abstract a duty , aud the exhibition of that resistance a mere questiop of prudence . They will therefore resist the Union by all legal , peaceful , and
constitutional . means . I" 4 . The p ' an for the restoration of the Irish Parliament is as follows : —1 .

REPEAL MEETING AT ROSCOMMON . Roscpmmon , Sunday Night . —This "demonstration , " which took place to-day , was distinguished by a sort of tremor which preceded it , occasioned by some of the landed proprietors in the county having issued directions that none of their tenantry or labourers should attend the meetiog . Among these , Mr . Kelly , of Castle Kell y , issued orders whioh were not to be mistaken ; to counteract which , the people of-the near part of the county of Gal way who proposed to attend , intimatud , it is said , their intention , on passing Castle Kelly , to bring Mr . Kelly ' s tenantry with them to the meeting . Mr . Kelly , we understand ; communicated with Government on the subject , and obtained the aid-of half a troop of the 4 th Dragoon Gnards , who were quartered at the
Castle , and !©; a company of the 46 th Infantry , and a force of police who were stationed at the adjoining viilage oF flall ygar . At seven o ' clock this morning , we were informed , the tenantry were brought within tbe walis . of ihe demesne , the avenues to which were guarded by the military and police . The agent of Lord Croftpn , at Moote Park , we understand , issued similar ordetB , but did not take similar measures . A party ofj the 4 th Dragoon Guards arrived in the towa of Roscommon yesterday f ? r Longford , and tbe police of the surreunding stations were concentrated in the town . This foree was under the direction of Mr . Crossly , stipendiary magistrate , and Eamund Carr , Esq . of Durham , J . P ., whose father and brother each attended the meeting and proposed resolutions .
At an early honr in the morning , tbe surrounding districts preEented those scenes incident to these collections of large masses of the people . Parties arrived , most of them with bands , and banners , from Athlone , Longford , Boyle , Strokestown , Castlereagb , Elfin , Carrick , and the adjoining county of Galway . They proceeded to meet Mr . O'Connell in the dircotion of South Park , tho seat of Nicholas Balfe , Egq , M . P ., * where he has been staying for the last two days . The ' meeting was convened on the Furlough , a large field , about a mile on tho opposite Bide of the town , and within a short distance of tho barrack . A number of tents and marquees were erected on the gronnd , which gave it more the appearance of a
fair or race-ground than a spot appointed for a political meeting . It was half past three o'clock before Mr . O'Connell arrived , and the number who accompanied him in the procession and were present on the field wore fully as great as those at any previous meeting iu the province . The Very Heverend Dr . Madden proposed that they should commence their proceedings by giving three cheers for the Queen , which were given accordingl y . . He then proposed as Chairman a gentleman who not many years ago was the oldest magistrate in the connty , but who , in answer to tbe English Minister flung his commission to the winds , and stood by Ireland —( cheers ) . That gentleman was Jeoffrey French , Esq ., of Tcmona —( cheers ) .
The motion was agreed to , and Jeoffrey French , Esq ., took the chair . The Chairmau said that persons were punished for attending meetings , which they conceived for the benefit of the country ; but for his part , he cared not what any government would do , he would attend any meeting calculated to promote the interests of Ireland —( cheers ) . Dr . Burke , on being nominated secretary , said when he brought the requisition to Mr . O'Connell , he had promised him au assemblage of 500 , 000 per sons in Roscommon , and he now asked had he not kept his promise ? Mr . O'Connell—Certainly and a tilley over—( cheer *) .
The Hon . T . Ffrench proposed a resolution , that after forty-three years of experience of Saxon legislation , they had no hope of remedying the grievances of Ireland jbut by a Repeal of the Union , and they were determined to persist in their efforts until that all-important object was effected , Mr . Henry Carr , of Durham , seconded the resolution , which' was agreed to . Mr , O'Connell , when the cheering subsided , called on them to rejoice in well-founded hope and confident expectation—to rejoice in the spirit of patriotism that their country was to become a nation a ^ a in—to rejoice that , the day-star of liberty was in the horizon , and that the full noon of freedom should beam around their native land : for the day , the
hour , was fast coming , believe him , who never told them a lie , their country should be a nation again—( cheers ) . . The hour of the restoration of their native Parliament was at hand—( renewed cheering ) —and that was what he never would cease to work for till he got it—and the oldest among them , and few of them were older than himself—should live to hear of the Parliament in Col j ego Green —( cheers ) . That period was approaching : for every symptom surrounding them , every appearance , every reality , denoted that the restoration of tbe Irish Parliament was not remote . They bad only to look around them , and review by-gone circumstances and passing events , to ! be convinced of the speedy restoration of the Irish Parliament . First they had Father
Mathew—( hear , and cm era ) . He put him forth with the glorious teetotallers and the temperance , the finest' eifulgence of human virtues—( cheers ) . Had he any teetotallers there 1 ( u Yes , plenty . ") He was glad of it , for he wished to tell thrm that he had made a rule that no man who broke his pledge should be allowed to be a Repealer . He would place the teetotallers in the first rank of tbe Repealers . Napoleon boasted of his body-guardhis Imperial Guard—he boasted of a guard of Christian teetotallers . He adduced the fact as a precursor to Irish Jiberty , that they had five millions of pledged teetotallers—for that mighty moral miraole had not emanated from the hands of the Almighty for nothing ( cheers ) . It was it that gave them all
the security they had in their present movement . How could he have assembled such masses—how conld he have brought a million and a half of people together , if he were not backed by the teetotallers They were the first preservers of the liberty of Ireland , and it was for that Father Mathew was sent ; The truth was that the Irish were too good to be kept in slavery any longer . They coufcl not be kept in slavery . They were temperate . Men who drank might exhibit courage in the first flash of momentary excitement ; but give him in the front of the conflict the teetotaller ; and were it necessary for him to goto battle , he would go there with the Bteady teetotallers ( cheers ) -r-witb their wives and sisters , thanking God for their
virtuous abstinence , and praying for their success ; and ¦ with the : teetotal fcands playing before them—( cheers ) he could tell them that there was not an army in the world to match with his teetotallers—( cheers ) . Temperance was the corner-stone of Irish liberty . It was the first proof that they were sweeping away filthy Saxon domination . The second great proof of the success of Repeal was to be found in their own conduct . They had placed their enemies in the wrong , and had kept themselves in the right . In the Precursor Society every effort was made to obtain justice for Ireland . He defied any man to deny that grievances existed . He had called for the relief of those grievancea , and they even had offered tolgive up Repeal if they got good government for Ireland . The offer was treated with Bcorn ,
and he raised the standard of Repeal because the English Parliament would not do justice to Ireland . He made . the experiment . They were refused , and he would make tho bargain no more , for from that hour forward there was nothing but tho Repeal for Ireland—( cheers ) . Their enemies had resorted to abuse . They vilified the people and the clergy of Ireland . One of the first of their newspapers called the venerated clergy of the majority of the people ot Ireland , " surpliced rumans , " " a demon priesthood , " and designated the people of Ireland " a filthy and felonious xabblo . " He knew the effect of it upon the Irish people . He wished there were as many Englishmen before them as there were Irishmen present , and that they dared to use that language . If they
did not beg pardon before they went home there was no use in logic at all—( cheers and laughter ) . The result of the abuse was , that it made the Irish people more ready to join him than they were before in driving oft" the Saxon yoke , and giving Ireland to the Irish —( hear , and cheers ) . He told them that he would keep within the constltion , that , there should be no attack made upon them ; but ho defied them to attack the people . He asked if there was one man there would not fight if he were attacked (< sheers and cries of " there is not ")! There was music in that shout , and a pretty tune it was . K 6 w that shout was exactly what he told them . He translated it into English for them , and sent it back to Peel and Wellington with his compliments ( cheers and laughter ) . What was the consr qaence
They said they had no notion " of fightiDg . He laughed , < and the people of Ireland could laugh at them tooi What did they propose to do t Nothing . They hoped , indeed , that tbe efforts of Ireland would pass away . In the first place ^ they said OSGonneH was old ,, and would soon die ( laughter ) . Heaven help them ! He was youi .,. enough for the best of them yet ( laughter and « heer ? . ) . But heaten forbid that Ireland had not many sons as true as he , and as deserving of her confidence ( no , no)—and if it was his fate } to be placed henr ath the cold stone to-morrow , and to be called to his judgement , oh , Ireland would be free still ( cheers ) 1 Tiie effecting of her liberty did not depend on one man , but if it did depend upon one man ' s exertions , here ¦ wa s the man who would do it— ( loud cheers ) . * Their enemies had another plan .
