«™ f rT The W ^ kly meeting of the Re P eal Associa- 

 tion took phice on Monday. The building was densely 



crowded The Hon. Hel, Hutchinson presided, and 

 addressed the meeting at some length. He said that he 

 had been an old and staunch Repealer. He had, twenty- 

 five years ago, considered the Act of Union as a most 

 disastrous legislative measure. Time confirmed him 

 more and more in that opinion, and made him resolved 

 to do away with the wrong and the disgrace which the Act 

 of Union inflicted on this country. The Union was im- 



r.°h!ii- °" r - r oI and '" the hour of her weakness. The 

 rebellion of '98 was expressly got up to pave the way for 



the carry.ng of that measure. Bribery, intimidation, and 

 every base means were resorted to by the English to take 

 away the Irish Parliament. Large promises had been 

 made to Ireland, but nothing was given but political 

 degradation and social misery. During the period of 

 forty-five years that had elapsed since the passing of the 

 Union, England had resorted to Coercion Bills, and 

 other tyrannical expedients, for the purpose of putting 

 down ln IreIa , ld ^e expression of public opinion ; but in 

 this respect England had not succeeded. The ruin of 

 Ireland Is trade and manufactures had been brought

 frightened capitalists from embarking their money in 



any business speculation in Ireland, by representing that

The splendid city of Dublin, which ought to be filled 

 with the mansions and palaces of our noblemen, had be-

 ouut tor 80,000. He believed there was no remedy for 



the : evils that afflicted Ireland but a repeal of the Union 



The late prosecution had failed to put down the popular 



movement for Repeal. On the contrary, it hndTven 



UtrieVnT 7 w f movem oot, and there could be 

 little doubt of ultimate success. He did not think any 



ZE'h% "V D r ber ° f IreIand ' s representatives 

 would be of any advantage to this country. Such in-

 away from the kingdom money in proportion to the 



fTth^ ° f ^t* r^T^ntatives. He^awno remedy 

 for the country's evils but Repeal, and he trusted that 

 object, and that alone, would hi sought for by he IrUh

The Repeal was not to be carried b, violence, either in

 soon as Repeal was attained ? H c thn^u - ptd - * 

 better that the subject .hoold u\r£X£S& 

 without such direction, and without any biw or & 

 from any individual. Another useful resuhiif"" 

 arise from the offering of thoutf^ 1 ^'* 

 might tend to remove in some measure EnJlUK D ^ 

 dices against Repeal. It was almost received § a aD HE 

 in England, even amongst the most intel bS 

 Repeal meant separation and dismembermeS rf ftf 

 empire. But the more the subject was dwe' on ^1 

 considered, the more would it be felt even i ZuS 

 that Repeal was not only consistent wi S \ t *£& 

 to the integrity of the empire. For his own ™?W 

 must say, however that he felt that Repeal w M K 



11 J° H V f by - I - ,Sh> aDd not h * EnglUh opinioi 

 Under that conviction was it that he had so sedulwS 



laboured to unite all classes of Irishmen in support of it 

 The hon. gentleman then proceeded to show that Renal 

 stood upon a totally different footing from the queilia. 

 of Catholic Emancipation. That question was support^ 

 m a great degree by England, and opposed by a lartt 

 body of Irishmen, who were interested in maintaining i 

 Protestant monopoly. But, with the exception of tk 

 Protestant clergy, there was no class of Irishmea fa 

 ought not to support, and who were not interested in 

 supporting, the question of Repeal, as it had for ill 

 object the national welfare. Those who advocated that 

 measure were therefore the true friends of the integrity 

 oHhe empire, for in spite of Mr. O'Connell, or Mr. 

 O Brien, or any other leader, the alternative which now 

 presented itself to the Minister of England was Repeal 

 or separation. He trusted that the prizes offered by the 

 Association would produce masterpieces of composition, 

 which they would not be ashamed to circulate through- 

 out the world as an exposition of the opinion of thii 

 country with reference to its national interests.— Mr. H. 

 Grattan seconded the motion in a long speech, in whick 

 he stated, in allusion to the opinion of the majority of 

 the Englibh judges on the O'Connell writ of error, that 

 the judges of England had always decided against tb* 

 liberties of Ireland. He also observed that it was a fofy 

 to suppose that the Recorder of Dublin did not know, 

 and ought not to have known, who it was that stole th« 

 jury list, and that Her Majesty's Ministers must not 

 dare to refuse inquiry into that subject.— The motioa 

 having been agreed to, and an address of congratulatwi 

 having been presented to Mr. O'Connell from the 

 Repealers of Liverpool, Mr. O'Connell rose amidit 

 loud cheers, and proceeded to say, that it was thet 

 his duty to call the attention of the Association 

 to the matters of which he had given notice on theW 

 day of meeting. They were perhaps too ba or«* 

 in their spirits on that day to regulate with care and con- 

 sideration the mighty concerns of the nation— for the 



concerns of Ireland were now in their handi. TOJ
