IRELAND.

The Irish papers are filled with O'Connell's speeches at Fermoy, Waterford, and Limerick. As he generally treated the seine topics in much the same language as at Tralee, Kanturk, and Thurles, there is Ito occasion to make long extracts from his speeches; but a few of the more peculiar passages may be quoted. At Limerick he denounced all who refused to join the Precursor Society-

" Every man who refuses to join it, will not be spoken to by either the men or Ike women ; and this I say, because I can have no hope of its success, unless by universalizing the plan, and making it formidable in paint of extent. If it were only joined by 500,060 men of a fighting age—that is to say, beginning at fourteen and ending at sixty-five—Ed have some hope. Then wou'd I get them to sign a petition to the Queen to the following effect—' We, your Majesty's humble staVeets, but fighting men, upon the knees of our hearts wait, seek, im- plore, and hcseeell you to do justice to adding the words,and your petitioners will ever pray.' (Laughter.) That petition will be likely to be listened to; but if it be not, one of another kind will, I prophesy."

He pointed to the forced union of Holland and Belgium, and its result s-

" Let England look at the situation of Belgium and Holland. There was a Legislative Union existing there ; and do you know to what decision they came? Why, they said, that 764 was hoe than 532. What happened next? Holland had 2,000,000, And Belgium had 4,000,000; and yet the same number of Re- presentatives were given to each ! This festered steeply in the minds of the insulted people; but what followed ? Holland owed .200,000,000a, and Bel- gium 1,000,0001. ; but the debts of the two were consolidated. The direst persecutions were enacted against the poor Belgians—one of the hest, the mildest, the most moral, and the most religious people that ever existed ; but all those ingredients combined caused an insurrection to heist forth, which ended in the separation of the Monarchy. Let England look to history, and not dare to provoke its to any thing like this! (Shouts.) Let her consider that we are not so patient people as the Belgians. We are fully as brave, but there is not so much timidity shout us. No; if the Irish blood be once up, there is no knowing where it will end, particulaz ly if we look to Englidi possession and Irish vassalage."

More threats-

" The 77ntes the other day discovered a petition ailoptol in this country in 1805. We knew so little about drawing up public documents in those days, that we sent a fee to Mu'. Peter Burrowes to prepare that s.lid petition for its. letern.N1 the flo, but thew up the petition ; and now a p.ssage is quoted front it by the Tina's. to the Offset tl:at we then pro:el-ea not to distui b the seveno. s of the Estalei.lod Church as by law established in these countries. There is the baiol (continued Mr. O'Connell holding up 11:•4 hand) that signe•I that petition-111;1nd that I WutIM Off be!'ute tv.)12%1 SIga another to the same tell tie Tiairs a story—'fhere were two English firnon-s once: one of then came to tie other in the ninth of 3Liy, and said,' I'll glee Cis. a barrel for the corn you have in your granary.' The other refused ; wherelOre the to titer ended for the present. The suite farmer tune again iii

tile month cf September ; wl:en the other fellow said to You maw have that corn and 0elcoole now, if you like." No, thank y lie replied, my

own corn is grown and lire now ; do nut want gums.' Su it is wiih us : we cringul to thou whin we were usurp, lad row e.e h 7,.;• .1.: I the m /ie. cause we are aeon; cumuli. But ought not this to be a for the statesmen of England. ?"

COConnell towertheless assured the Limerick patty, that there was "wilt' one chance" for them—to "support the Quiet's Govern- ment." Ile chuckled at the success of his rnantee e in pillaging England of " the million—"

" I admit I supported the Tithe Bill of last session. It was I mowed that the English people should he fined 1,000,00M. I .say every man ought to pay for his amusement. If one man likes cock-lighting, and ;moth borsc-raeii,g, the one should find his cock and the other :import his horse. Why shenihrnt he that dances pay the piper? My reasoning 0.iis perfectly correct ; and ac • cordingly, John Bull bowed his head and submitted. ( nears hrauh ter. ) The people of England and Scotlend must pay the umal icilalty tar simplicity —a laugh at their expcnse."

Mr. O'Connell has a right to boast of this achievement : and his

Whig accomplices did swindle the country out of is million. And for what ? Let the following. notice of future operations onewer- " Did not we get rid of one-fourth of the entire last sessioe--ohat is, '25 per cent. ? We will Jhortty be at the other three-fora ills. If we .had strength to knock off the one-fourth, we will sec whether we have ma strength to knock off the thrse-foorths. Is there a landlord in Ireland that would :nut be shouting to put down the other threelourths; Talent will, therefore, he inlisted against thJ holiest."

The bill of last session was truly an excellent plan of settling the Tithe question !

The 9th of December has been fixed for the " simultaneous " collio-

tion of the "O'Connell Netintufl Annuity" all the parishes of Ireland. The "trustees," in their address, take care to remind the "bondsmen" of O'Connell'e refusal to accept promotion to the Bench- " O'Connell, as the recognized represeutative of the nation, is the organ of her claims; and having crowned his innumerable precious sacrifices by the recent refusal of the highest dignities and emoluments of the profession in which he stands so preeminent, in order that he may contiaue to devote his undivided energies and talents to his public duties, he has laid the peoWe under obligations which will be felt as a personal debt by each individual of the great body whom he has so long and so signally served. The payment of the annual instalment on this truly national debt is therefore expected at the hands of every member of the community on the coming 9th of Decetuber.
