The rest of this bald, and we must suppose badly.reported speech, was chiefly made up of talk about tithes, the "widow's screams on the blood-stained field of Gurtroe," ‘Vhiteboys, the advantage of the Whig Government to Ireland, " the Appropriation," the "baseness of El:g- land," and the hostility of the five last Kings of Eugland to Ireland. Mr. O'Connell now despises "the Appropriation When he took the Tithe Dill, he told them in the Douse of Commons. that he took it bre lust: he wunial not have the poor people Wialteboys, bat would have lords, anal bmottets, nod malimises mining Whiteboys.

The four Georges hated the Catholics. George the First. who woe placed on the throne for their exclusion, was an ignorant brutal German ; and the secene repreeented his bad praetices.

George the Fourth-what in respectful sou t., ills fether-what at dui boy to his mother-oh:it an admirable husband to his suite-what a !nett y pliet to his datiehter -lie ;also hated the Irish.

The next entertainment was at Thurles, on the 8th instant ; Lord Listnore in the chair. Mr. O'Connell, in his after-dinner speech, al- luded to the immense concourse of people who had escorted him into the town, and the beautiful country through which he bad passed- e I have long been hackneyed in volitive! lire; lent this day I felt among you a de- light anal au auimation that made it seem to mc that me life as as azel that my youth was emulate buck again upon nes It was hilly delight fel to me to come Gummi' yoor verdatirfields anal yuur widmextettaled plains; and I admired thy sapi,t but taut tumultuous course of your splendid river,: fur I atm a Seel eulleisia U a lov,tr or Nature. in her beauty anal lier grandeur ; and I kand it SUN fwth with alomst in retool lustre, promi,ing, I thought, at (night and xprine•dey to Ir! loud.

'furry was a thee m the gentry of this comity thought proper to meet, a small closet o ould contain all of them that were patriotic."

Mr. O'Connell repeated his attacks upon Lord Caselereagle Lord Brougham, and the English Radicals, in nearly the same terms that be employed at Kaaturk. He insisted upon having 150 .Members for Ireland- " From Spring Rice's calenlation with regent to the revenee on the last yeer that helmet returned at sepautte Parliament. I showed that wore entitled to l'U ; tool now I claim no, and we alit nut be satisfied without that number, for althea it we aid. not have a real union. This may appear trivial, to be sure ; brat if ate bad lee Members in the British Parliament, we would compel any patty, Wiligs or Tories, to secede to oar demands and to do us justice."

There was another O'Connell thinner at Cork on Saturday ; when the same matter was again served up with little variation. We give a brief specimen of the harangue, which was enthusiastically received- " Perhap a the hest way to return thanks In a speech, is by giving yon as toast : that is-' Ohl Ireland, equal to Englund in her rights. or again at indium' (Loud cheers.) Ohl I not know the any to deal with you ? This reminds me if what a daughter of mine once said -she was it dear little thing, and rewl me a lessee which I a UI repeat to you.

Monday beheld Mr. O'Connell dining with a party at Yougliall; but in the brief report we have seen of his speech there is nothing worth quoting. He abused Mr. St. Paul, who had abused him at a Worcestershire Tory dinner, and again accused the English Radicals of hoed:Hy to Ireland. The Tories be called " those English fel- lows ;" and he said that England was "pouring upon Ireland a tor- rent of hostility to her interests."
