" The V OL. 5~>: O. 186. Great Public Demonstration in New Ross [FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.] On Monday one of the largest meetings that I have witnessed in Ireland since the LIBERATOR ' S unequalled Monster Demonstrations, took p lace in New Ross , ia favor of the return of CHARLEJ GAVAN DUFFY , to represent" that independent and patriotic Borough in Parliament. Whea I arrived in Ross (it being fair-day) the streets were crowded with persons of all ages and sexes waiting, as it would appear, not so much for the fair as to hear some public speaking, to which they h:ive been for BO long a time unused. In a short time , however , the crowds were consideiably augmented b y a large number ol persons who arrived from Waterford per coach and steam-boat. TJy the former , I observed :— Messrs John Lalor . T.C. ; T. F. Strange , T.C. ; Thomas Murphy, T.C. ; M. Egan , J. Supp le; M. Tobin , J. Tobin, T. W. Condon, T. Power , M. Murphy, John Kelly, J. I'lahavan , J. Scanlan , P. Murph y, James Power, Wm. Kell y, Owen Powei. And on the platform were—P. Kiel )' , John Hudson, James Egan , and some other Waterford men. Shortl y after two o ' clock , Mr. Duff y, Mr T. F. Strange, Dr. Gray, Dr. Keane (Kilkenny), Mr. Roche { Wexford Guardian), Mr. Suttor (Ross), Mr. Dcvereux , Rev. Mr. Doy le , Rev Mr. Crean, the deputation from Waterford; &c. proceeded from Shanahan ' e Hotel to th< meeting outside the Thol«el, at which p lace a commodious platform was erected , ami neai which a band was stationed , who played some national airs . It was remarked to me, at this moment , that there could not have been less than from 10,000 to 12,000 persons present. Tho ;ro\vd , which was densel y packed , formed itself nto the shape of a cross, extending from the ri ght to the Quay in one line , and in another ine , still more direct , from the Thoteel 'o Ska- iahan ' s Hotel. About half-pnst two o' clock the chair \va: taken by James Brown , Esq. Mr. Sutton , of Ross , p-oposed the first reso- lution , which was in favor of Tenant Right , and in doin^' so , ?pnke in very handsome term". He said , tlw the present «nat demonstration would make the return of Mr. Duff y secure for New- Ross , and to which the ptsup le hat! pledged them- selves. Althoug h the League had been defeat- ed in Liinerick , he Wns eure it would be success- ful in Koss. He conciufKl by say ing that Doctor Gray, the \>r-i<t ¦ ¦• . proprietor of the honest Freeman , which ! -A been for the past f j0 years battling for civil and reli gious liberty, would adilrrss the meeting. Mr- Strange , on being call- . -d on , addressed (he meeting iii brief but appropriate ' terms , and was verv warml y greeted. Mr. Michael Power , of Rosbcreon. seconded the motion. He said he was prouder to have a vot« to give to Mr Duffy, than if he were made a Justice of the Queen' s bench (hear , (hear.) Mr. Puffy hiiiJ been charged with being a poor man ; but , if hi3 enemies were not as stupid as the very beasts of the field that perish, they would not bring that charge against him (cheers) because it is an insult to every man who earns his bread (cheers for Fit ther Doyle.) No man, continued the speaker , deserves cheers from the peop le of Ross , better than Father Doyle, for there wns> a faction in town who were stiiving to drive him out of it (hear.) It had been said that all the ptiests were not in favor of Mr. Duffy ; but a short time ago. a large number of them had been invited to a dinner at Talbot- Hall , and the priest* to a man refused to go (cheers.) Dr. Gray, on being called on, was enthusiasm ticiill y cheered. On ascending the table on the p latform, he proceeded to say, that he came down directed to ask one question , which was , " Are you for Tenant Ri ght , or are you foi tenant slavery ?" (cheers , and cries of '* Tenam Rig ht " .) The GREAT Liberator of Ireland used to say, and he would repeat the same words to the meeting, " Let those who are with us to day lift uptheir hands ," [here a number of hands were raised up.] This meeting then shows that the country are pledged to Tenant Rig ht. Among the calumnies urged against Mr. Duff y " was , that he had not the support of the clergy ; now he (Dr. Gray) need onl y look to the p latform to answer that accusation. The clergy were not so much for Mr. Duff y as they were for the cause which he represented , and he believed that cause must succeed (cheers). Mr. Redingion sold bis country and his creed , althoug h had a private fortune that ou<;ht to make even a slave a man (app lause). He had sold his country, and the reli gion of his fathers . not because of want, or that hunger stared him in the face as it does many of his countrymen— no ; he suld it for miserable vanity—he sold it for a red ribbon—he sold it for a title ;—and he now comes to ROBS with his red ribbon on him ; won ' t you , men of New Ross , stamp hia conduct as infamy ? (ironical cheers for Reding, ton). He trusted that the electors of New Uoss would give him such a red stamp, that even a clean dog would not look at him (laughter). R.dington is here as the advocate of tho old system. , L . A Voice—As a lick plate (laughter.) Dr Gra y said he hoped they woul d not send him to lick the p lates of the Castle (renewed laug hter.) He. (Dr. G.) lived! next to Sir Thomas Redington, and he would tell them that there was not in all Ireland , a worse condit.oneJ tenantry than his. Had Mr. Red.nglon put his name to a malicious p lacard which had been circulated in Ross, he (Dr. G.) would tell him that he lied , and he knew that he lied (cheers.) He sai d it was for the men of New Ross to ktrike the first blow for Tenant Freedom ; and that this election was between the man who was in prison , and the man who turned the key on him. Dr. Grey concluded amid repeated cheers . ., . Dr. Kean e (Kilkenny), then rose ar. d said , it afforded him gratification to look again on a treat Irish monster meeting ; ind he believed *• <-* n.iflcv tn Pftrlia- AND GENEEAL W E fcL ; ; X A fft^^Blii^li Waterford Chronicle and Minister A0veic^^i^aegis^^^§^!^^i^ ment , they would send there the honestest man in Ireland (cheers). He wa9 aman who never ceased day or night , toiling for Ireland. He was sure that if it were necessary to have 20, 000 men to assist the people of Ross in carry ing their elec- tion, the men of Kilkenny, he was sure , would g ladly send them (cheers). He (Dr. K.) had met a Whi g in Kilkenny on that morning who said that there was not a more corrupt town in Ireland than New Ross. A Voice— He ' s a liar, Doctor (laughter). Doctor Keane—I hope you will prove it. It was stated at the hotel to him (Dr. K.) that Mr. Redington had consulted a distinguished ecclesi- astic about his g iving up his situation at the Castl e at the time the Ecclesiactical Titles Bill was being carried throug h the House, when that ecclesiastic said , " oh, by no means give up your situation '' Now, that the story reminded him (Dr. Keane) of a story about a fellow who wnnte<Tto take's wife unto himself. " Where is your certificate' 1 said the priest , " oh , sir. ' 1 said the fellow, " I went to confession to Bally- ragget , and I lost my certificate, and the pnot old man himself is dead. " " Well , then," said the clergyman , " go to another priest." Now. h* (Dr. K.) would tell Mr. Redington to go ano- ther bishop—to go to Paul Cullen—and if he got a certificate from him, it was mighty likel y he would be returned (laughter, and cheers.) What a chance of a certificate he has ! (laughter). He said they had to contend also with Mr. Lambert , who was equally hostile to the people , and who , if he could , would tie up the hands of the Catholic priesthood. Dr. Keane concluded amid general app lause . MrrDuffy, or/rising, was very enthusiastically cheered!—He said , he came there to ask them for their support that he might represent them in Parliamtnt. He came there not to do his own business , but to do their business. The Tenant League wanted to make the Farmers of the country as independent as the men of the towns of WexforJ , and Ross had alway s been. You will be told that Parliament will not grant i' enant Ri phl; but so nicely balanced are paities now in the House—with 300 on one side and 300 on another—that they will be obliged to ^rant it , if an honest Irish party do their duty n the House. And he would sink their colo- nial possessions—and colonial questions—intc the infernal pi:, before he would vote for the Ministry, unless they did justice to the Irish tenant farmer , Eight years ago Mr. Redington as one of the Devon Commission , inquired into the state of Ireland , but he had done nothing since for it. He said thnt Redington , Lord Clarendon , and all the Whig rascals hated to see him going into the House of Commons. Ho was the »on. of a Shop-keeper , and he was proud .. _ . _- _ j. t - - - - i to 6ay so ; and he thoug ht he was as Rood and as horie-t as that fellow with the English nick- name sttachrd to his name. If you don ' t put me into Parliament you will (said Mr. Duff y] put an end to my publia life—if you don' t eU ct me , the sooner all men on this p latform give up the country, the better. He s:<id he would leave the mutter in the hands of thu patriotic and lionp.st men of New Ross , 5i:id concluded amid sheering, waiving of handkerchiefs from the windows , and other demonstrations of ap- p lause. Mr. Johnson , of Wexford , road an addrei s from the Tenant League body of that town , and spoke abl y in favor of Tenant Ri ght , and the popular candidate. Kev . Mr. O'Shea addressed the meeting at considerable leng th. He spoke in favor of Mr. Duff y, and Ten-nt Ri g ht—he denounced the conduct of Sir T.^ N. Redington , and said that the title of K. C. B., which he from the Bri tish Government , meant '• Killer of Catholic Bishops ' 1 (cheers and laughter.) He said he would pre- fer " Luttrel Lambert " even to Redington . Rev. Mr. Doyle also addressed the meeting, and in the course of his observations heabused (in very itronij language) all his antagonists, from Sir T. N. Redington to Mr. Greene of the Wexford Independent , and advocated the doc- trine of exclusive dealing 1! He read out the names of 70 voters , whom , he said , had pro- mised Mr. Duff y, and remarked that there were only 50 more to be polled. The Rev. Mr. Lambert addressed the meeting, when all quietly separated. On the same evening a large number eat down to dinner at Shanahun' s Ho' el. ELECTION OF DUOUHEDA We publish this day a valedictory address from our old representative Mr. O'Dwyer , about whose intentions regarding the representation there has been some speculation , many persons b^ing of opinion that he would have again pre- sented himself on the theatre of his ancient triump h. However, this address disposes con- jecture , and there can be no second opinion as to the consistentl y honorable course which Mr. O'Dwyer , has chosen on this occasion. Mr. O'Dwyer forms a part of the history of Droghedn of its independence, its perseverance , and its attachment to any representative who proves true to his obligations. He was three times re- turned for Drog heda , and to the last retained the confidence and cordial support of the consti- tuency. He is one of the f ew men , who, during his career in parliament was always found at the ri g ht side of every question , and was dis- tingui shed by his stern independence, which prevented him from ever asking or accepting a favor from government. After he retired from Parliament , he received , it is said, without solicitation on hia pare , a legal appointment , which he hel d until the aboli- tion of the Court of Equity Exchequer. He encountered , it will be remembered , much oppo- sition from the Orange party in this town , and he foug ht them resolutel y, but with considerable pecuniary loss , as may well be conceived. —Tho liberal party in Kngland subscribed a large sum (we havu heard more than fifteen hundred pound) to sustain him in defeat , which he refused to re- ceive , alleg ing that he would not compromise the honour of his constituents under the cir- cumstances then existing by accepting this sum. There was a repoit yesterday in Dublin that Mr. O'Dwyer means to offer himself to thfl peo- ple of Waterford , his native city. If the report prove true, we wish him on the part of the people of Drog heda every success , and if he shnll be returned, we have no doubt that Ireland and her relig ion will have in him again a resolute defender.

WATERFORD ELECTION TO THE FREE AND INDEPEN DENT ELECTORS Of the City of Water ford GENTLEMEN, The contemplated retirement of Mr. Meaghei from the Representatio n of your City, an event which in common with all persons who have marked his conduct , 1 deeply regret , devolves upon you the duty of selecting his successor , when a general Election shall occur. I hope you will not deem me presumptuous in offering myself as a Candidate for your suf- rages. I am not untried in political life, and I claim from you the enjoyment of your confidence , if on consideration of my past conduct you deem me not unworth y. ' I cannot myself , on reflection, remember any expression of my sentiments to qualif y or retract, any vote to exp lain or defend, or any act to regret. I adhere with fidelity to the princip les on which I first started in political life, and I pledge mysel f to continue in this con- sistent course, if you do me the honor of electing me as your Representative. It was my happy privilege to bear no very un- distinguished part during the memorable year* that preceded Catholic Emancipation , I fought by the side of my illustrious friend our LIBERATOR in that exciting Struggle, and I then scaled with him an affectionate intimacy that never ceased from that period u the day when I accom- panied him , at his desire , from the shores of Eng land, which, alas ! he was not destined to behold again. On the passing of the Ref orm Act, I was chosen as their Representative by the honest and independent People of Drogheda, and having beer, elected three times (they expressed their willing- ness to elect me a fourth time if I offered myself), I continued to represent them until driven from Parliament by the decision of an adverse Election Committee , composed of Ten Tories , and Out Liberal ! In the present limes , when suspicion so natu- rall y attaches to the honesty of those who endea- vour to combine the sweets of patronage with the enjoyment of popular confidence, I may be par- doned for say ing that during the years I sat in Parliament , I never asked , andll never re- ceived , the slightest favor from Government ; and I may add that I declined to accept civilitie s of this kind which were within my reach. If it ilid not bear the appearance of egotism , I could idduce many proofs to shew that I never traded an my position as a Representative of the People. In ' .ruth , I left the House of Commons a poorer nnan than I entered it; and I felt full y requited in spirit with the emphatic declaration of O'Con- nel l , that I " Never gave a bad vote , nor was ibsent when a good one could be tj iven!" Having thus sketched my antecedents , permit me to Address you with reference to the future. Rejoiced that the offence offered by the late Government , to the Catholics of this Empire , car- ried with it a retributive justice which conduced to their expulsion from power , I fed that much remains to be done ; and , that as Lord John Russell has been justl y driven from Government for having introduced a Bill insulting to the Catholic Reli gion, the further duty remains of ex- pelling from their places his Tory successer ' who aggravated the penalties of the same measure by the introduction of clauses the most insolent , oppressive , and unjust, The Government ol Lord John Russell is broken up—the ' Tory strong-hold remains to be demolished and both parties beaten. Let the endeavor be to con - struct a Government on true princi ples—one largel y involving in its constituents the popular element , which has been hitherto most scand*- lousl y omitted in the formation of all English Governments. It is scarcel y necessary for me (a Catholic) to say that I shall ever resolutel y maintain the rights of my co-reli gionists to the uninter- rupted enjoyment of their liberties and privileges , and that I shall insist upon the removal of all in- sulting restrictions upon the Freedom and Dig- nity of the Catholic Church. In a word , I demand and I shall never rest satisfied untU there shall be accomplished complete Equality for the Catholic People of Ireland with the most favored classes of the State ;—I seek for no ascendancy, but justice foibids that I should ever be contented with less than entire Equality, As to Free-Trade , I have always snnportec the princi ple; and surel y the late visitation ol famine which consigned our fine people in rail- lions to unJioHored graves , has broug ht ro my mind new argument in favor of that bad policy that would restrict tire supp l y of human fond , aud thus render the hardly-earned bread of the poor man more difficult of acquisition ; bul any local burdens not shared by other classes of the community , which may oppress the productive industry of the agriculturist, and which instead of operating on particular localities ought ,, in fairness, form part of the general taxation qfthj Country, would be a subject of most serious consideration by me , with a view to remedy any inequality proved to exist. The Landlord and Tenant question has assumed an importance indicating the deep interest which is felt by the peop le of Ireland in its speedy settlement. I shall , of course, if elected , be happy to co-operate with that excellent man , Mr. Sharman Crawfoid , in his laudable efforts to adjust the difficulties that e*; i8t on principles . of mutual advantage and reciprocal justice, a* between the parties in this relation. Something must speedily be done to assuage the angry passions which are too frequentl y developed in events the most deplorable—some measure , too , must be devised to arrest that fatal tide of Emi gra- tion which is carry ing off from our country, impelled by despair , the flower of our youth—the bone and sinew of our arluit population. The Franchise requires extension , and it is essential that the princi p le on v. hich it is based shall be entirel y altered ; and I shall , if I be allowed , assist in the correction of the evil . The present deplorable condition of Ireland , calls for combined notion on the part ' of all Irish Representatives , nnd I deem the promotion of thorough Parliamentary Union, for the at- tainment of useful public objects required by the best interests of the Country.

What- ever maj be the view* and intentions, of Louis Napoleon , there are a hundred of public func tionaries auxious for the empire, and who do not fail to svail themselves of their official posi- tion to get up petitions with tke view to an ap- peal being made to the people on the subject. The opinion here is vary general that three months will not pass over without a movement in this sense, and nobod y antici pates any serious opposition. The moment that the senate shall represent the Emp ire as a necessity, and the public functionaries be openly authorised tc emp loy their means of conveying this impression to the minds of the mass, universal suffr age maj be appealed to for the Emp re with al most a: much tucces.s as a two years ' presidency.

T. C. JOHN A. BLAKE, T. C, JAJIES CAVET, M.D., J. C. LEDLIE , ADDRESS OP THE COMMITTEE. As the Committee presume that the Public are already fully in possession of the objects of the Association, throug h the medium ol the publ ished Beports of their preliminary proceedings , they consider it will be only necessary to »tate them , in general terms, the mode in -which they propose to carry them out, and the grounds on which they base their hopes of success, in order to insure the necessary aid and co-operation on the part of those to whom the present appeal is made. Their chief object will be the promotion of employment amongst those of the working classes who are unable to obtain it with regularity, this they propose to achieve in two ways ;—in the first place, by endeavouring to encourage as much as possible the use of national, and particularly local manufactures to give stability to the exist ing sources of employment ; nnd in the next, by placing within the rench of those who we desirou* of availing themselves of it, tht means •f acquiring increased industrial knowledge to raise them above the vicissitudes to which all are subject , who alone depend for the means of existence on the unskilled labo ur of their hands. The Committee will also endeavour to introduce such branches of Industry 03 hold out fair hopes of proving ultimately remunerative , and trust, by giving every possible assistance to promote their development, to contribute towards their permanent success. After a careful examination into the wants of the poorer classes of the community, the Committee are of op i- nion that there are none who possess a stronger claim on our sympathies than the very numerous one of young females , whose ages vary from 14 to 18 years , and for whom, generall y speaking, there does not exist suitabl e emp loyment, and who are unable to undvrgo thia same fatigue and hardship as the opposite sex , and precluded b y the usages of Society from availing themselves ol? many casual sources of emp loyment open to others , and constantly exposed to temptations of the strongest kind, their situation is one of peculiar trial and suf- fering, and the Committee con sider that they could not commence their labours better than b y an attempt to alleviate their condition. and it affords them great pleasure to be enabled to state that they entertain strong hopes of being enabled to provide them with a means of employment , calculated at once to contribute towards the relief of th«ir more pressing wonts, and to place them beyond reach of those evil inuence3 to which their destitution unhappil y renders them subject. In various parts of Ireland, (particularly in the North, where labour is far more valuable than with U3) hundreds of girls and young women contribute towards their support by the Kmbroidery of Muslin, earning, according to their capacities, from Is. to 5s. a week, This branch of Industry ia one that promises at all times to Afford a source of emp loy meat the articl e being one in universal aud gra- dually increasing use. At present, upwards of £500, 000 per annum being expended (chiefly in this country ) in its manufacture . With this branch the Association propose to commence , as from a communication ihey have had with a Firm extensively engaged In the trade in Glasgow. They have been given to understand, that the latter would be willing to enter into an immediate arrangement for the regular purchase of any quantity of Work that could be produced, engaging at the same time to provide the materials , and pay a fixed price for each p iece of work according to quality when finished. This proposal the Committee consider an exceeding ly favourabl« one, as it would plnce them at once in a position to commence operatiins, there being upwards of si xty girls already fully instructed ia Muslin Embroidery ; who could undertake first-class work , nnd would prove useful besides ia assisting in the training those of who have not yet received instruction. This brauch of Industry is one that merits every encouragement, affording, as it does in tlie first p lace the certainty of ^ ultimately remunerative emp loyment , if sUndily persevered in, and in the next its perfect compatibility with the discharge of other duties , and the exercise of other pursuits, as it will for the most part be carried on'in tho homes of those employed, and may belaid as ide or resumed at p leasure , and possesses besides the advantage of offering nearl y all the benefits of manufacturing Industry, without any of 'he demoralis- ing effects that are too often the result of bring ing persons of opposite characters and dispositions together , within the walls of ft crowded Knrfnrv. - Factory. " . The Committee having found two objections frequently urged against the present project , and anticipating that they mig ht be often called on to combat them—deem it well at the outset do so ; the fi>3t , that several undertakings like the present, which have been at- tempted from time lo time failed. This , the Committee Ireely admit, but on a careful examination of the causes , it will be found that these failure s were usually the result of want of experience 1 , " <m the part of those engaged in such undertakings , as to the proper mode of organizing and carrying them out, and more particularly from having abandoned them frequently at the very point, when, if persevered, in they would probubly have been attended with success. It lias also been objected that an Association—which to some extent may be regarded as a charitable one , should not undertake a matter whose ultimate success would in a great measure depend on the inducements it would offer for the exercise of private enterprise. Of the truth of this the Committee are fully aware and wish therefore that it should be distinctly understood that they merely, contemplate putting matters in such a train as will induce parties in the Trade to establish regular agencies for the carrying on of thia species of manufacture, nnd which can only be done b y having a certain number of trained and expert workers ready to undertake work , as DO manuf acturer will undergo the trouble and expeuce of Instructing workers , while he can find them in other localities fully qualified. This plan has been triei and found successful in various parts Ireland, and t!ie Committee see no reason, under proper manage- ment , why it should not prove equally to here , and trust, in a short time, that this branch of Industry will be ¦ sufficiently advanced, as to be independent of their exertions for its permanent success, and that they will be enabled to devote their attentiou to the developement of nny other that may suggest itself. Having now set forth the several objects of the Association, both immediate and prospective, it only re- mains for the Committee to solicit the necessary aid to enable them to commence operations , and althoug h fully sensible of the many press- ing demands the public have on their generosity ; stilt they arc encouraged to hope that a consideration of the numerous benefits likely to arise from the successful working of the Association, will induce all to contribute proportionably to their means to aid in tie accomplish- ¦»"•"? «* *!»« «io»u Af* hi * fyimmiffpiv * ment of the views of the Committee. . ¦ * . A detail of the advantages to be derived by the community from the successful operations of <he Society, would fi»r exceed the liuita of this Address ; the committee will therefore confine themselves to the mention of oue or two points; the principal of these may cou- Bidereri the greater moral advantages that an undertaking intended to relieve the necessities of the distressed . through the exercise of their DWn industry, possesscn over one affording gratuitous relief ; the latter, although contributing to the alleviation of immediate, wants, - still effects little in .the way of promoting tho perraanen/ benefit of the recipients , and from the peculiar nature of the ' Irish 'cha racter often proves positivel y injurious by taking away their feelings of independence and self-reliance. The Committee would also- wish , remind that, independent of the desire we should feel from motifs of humanity to relieve tho distresses and elevate the moral and social tonJi- tion of those around us, there is yet another motive Dot the less strong, though it be ofa selfish nature, that should prompt us to undertake the task—that of self-interest for the sad experience of the kit few years demonstrates very, forcibly—that the indissoluble bond that unites class to class of every grado renders tho interest of each identical with the other, and that on the well being of the working classes , the stability of the whole social fabric immediately depends. : With these observations , the Committee of the Industrial Association entrust the subject to the consideration of the public enter- taining a confident and earnest hope that it will meet with that prompt and generous reejonao , which w i H r e nder prao t ica bl e i n ' «ftrly cftan. - mencernent of operations , on a basis caloul&tod . to ensure permanent euoee* . ¦ - .

    VOL. 5~>:O. 186.Great Public Demonstration in New Ross

    [FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.]

    On Monday one of the largest meetings that Ihave witnessed in Ireland since the LIBERATOR 'Sunequalled Monster Demonstrations, took placein New Ross, ia favor of the return of CHARLEJGAVAN DUFFY , to represent" that independentand patriotic Borough in Parliament. Whea Iarrived in Ross (it being fair-day) the streetswere crowded with persons of all ages and sexeswaiting, as it would appear, not so much for thefair as to hear some public speaking, to whichthey h:ive been for BO long a time unused.

    In a short time, however , the crowds wereconsideiably augmented by a large number olpersons who arrived from Waterford per coachand steam-boat. TJy the former, I observed :—Messrs John Lalor.T.C. ; T. F. Strange, T.C. ;Thomas Murphy, T.C. ; M. Egan, J. Supple;M. Tobin, J. Tobin, T. W. Condon, T. Power,M. Murphy, John Kelly, J. I'lahavan, J. Scanlan,P. Murphy, James Power, Wm. Kelly, OwenPowei. And on the platform were—P. Kiel)',John Hudson, James Egan, and some otherWaterford men.

    Shortly after two o'clock , Mr. Duffy, MrT. F. Strange, Dr. Gray, Dr. Keane (Kilkenny),Mr. Roche { Wexford Guardian), Mr. Suttor(Ross), Mr. Dcvereux , Rev. Mr. Doy le , RevMr. Crean, the deputation from Waterford; &c.proceeded from Shanahan'e Hotel to th<meeting outside the Thol«el, at which place acommodious platform was erected , ami neaiwhich a band was stationed , who played somenational airs . It was remarked to me, at thismoment, that there could not have been less thanfrom 10,000 to 12,000 persons present. Tho;ro\vd, which was densel y packed , formed itselfnto the shape of a cross, extending from theright to the Quay in one line , and in anotherine , still more direct , from the Thoteel 'o Ska-iahan's Hotel.

    About half-pnst two o'clock the chair \va:taken by James Brown , Esq.

    Mr. Sutton , of Ross, p-oposed the first reso-lution , which was in favor of Tenant Right , andin doin^' so, ?pnke in very handsome term". Hesaid , tlw the present «nat demonstration wouldmake the return of Mr. Duffy secure for New-Ross , and to which the ptsup le hat! pledged them-selves. Although the League had been defeat-ed in Liinerick , he Wns eure it would be success-ful in Koss. He conciufKl by saying thatDoctor Gray, the \>r-i a faction in town who were stiivingto drive him out of it (hear.) It had been saidthat all the ptiests were not in favor of Mr.Duffy ; but a short time ago. a large number ofthem had been invited to a dinner at Talbot-Hall, and the priest* to a man refused to go(cheers.)

    Dr. Gray, on being called on, was enthusiasmticiilly cheered. On ascending the table on theplatform, he proceeded to say, that he camedown directed to ask one question , which was ," Are you for Tenant Right , or are you foitenant slavery ?" (cheers , and cries of '* TenamRight".) The GREAT Liberator of Ireland usedto say, and he would repeat the same words tothe meeting, " Let those who are with us today lift upthe ir hands," [here a number of handswere raised up.] This meeting then shows thatthe country are pledged to Tenant Rig ht.Among the calumnies urged against Mr.Duffy "was, that he had not the support of theclergy ; now he (Dr. Gray) need only look tothe platform to answer that accusation. Theclergy were not so much for Mr. Duffy as theywere for the cause which he represented, andhe believed that cause must succeed (cheers).Mr. Redingion sold bis country and his creed,although h« had a private fortune that ou;;A;.moat lamentable occunince^ w^WBiHlbssf aith * itty ntt Porto (Portuguese) hM^rown

    PARIS , SUNDAT EVENING. —It is stated bja Ministerial journal that among the petitionsaddressed to the Senate are an immense numbeifor the establishment of the Empire. What-ever maj be the view* and intentions, of LouisNapoleon , there are a hundred of public functionaries auxious for the empire, and who donot fail to svail themselves of their official posi-tion to get up petitions with tke view to an ap-peal being made to the people on the subject.The opinion here is vary general that threemonths will not pass over without a movementin this sense, and nobody anticipates any seriousopposition. The moment that the senate shallrepresent the Empire as a necessity, and thepublic functionaries be openly authorised tcemploy their means of conveying this impressionto the minds of the mass, universal suffr age majbe appealed to for the Emp re with almost a:much tucces.s as a two years' presidency.

    We hive what most persons would call beau-tiful weather in Paris for day after day passeswithout rain, and with briliant suns hie.The weather is fine , however, for very robustpersons, and for the doctors, who are reapinga rich harvest. The north east wind has beenconstantl y blowing, and there is an unusualamount of sickness. The gripp e is makingalmost as great ravages as it did in March , 1851.Tue number of deaths from this malady, aadfro.n a;>op!exy, is enormous.

    moment of sentiments which those who knowme will remember to have been always enter-tained by me, may be attributed to unworthymotives. However no light upprehenion olbeing misunderstood shall prevent me fromsaying that if I shall be the object of your selec-tion, I shall not relax in my efforts for the resto-ration to their homes and their kindred of ourCountrymen, who at a memorable period in-volved their lives and liberties, in the severestpenalties of the law ; and I sincerely hopethat the day will come, when the Son of theHonorable Man whose successor I aspire to be,shall be restored to his country, to cheer theevening of a life which has consecrated itself tothe performance of the highest social obliga-tions.

    As the Committee presume that the Public are already fully in possession of the objects of the Association, through the medium ol

    the publ ished Beports of their preliminary proceedings, they consider it will be only necessary to »tate them, in general terms, the mode

    in -which they propose to carry them out, and the grounds on which they base their hopes of success, in order to insure the necessary aid

    and co-operation on the part of those to whom the present appeal is made. Their chief object will be the promotion of employment amongst

    those of the working classes who are unable to obtain it with regularity, this they propose to achieve in two ways ;—in the first place, by

    endeavouring to encourage as much as possible the use of national, and particularly local manufactures to give stability to the existing

    sources of employment ; nnd in the next, by placing within the rench of those who we desirou* of availing themselves of it, tht means

    •f acquiring increased industrial knowledge to raise them above the vicissitudes to which all are subject, who alone depend for the means of

    existence on the unskilled labour of their hands. The Committee will also endeavour to introduce such branches of Industry 03 holdout fair

    hopes of proving ultimately remunerative, and trust, by giving every possible assistance to promote their development, to contribute towards

    their permanent success. After a careful examination into the wants of the poorer classes of the community, the Committee are of opi-

    nion that there are none who possess a stronger claim on our sympathies than the very numerous one of young females, whose ages vary

    from 14 to 18 years, and for whom, generally speaking, there does not exist suitable employment, and who are unable to undvrgo thia

    same fatigue and hardship as the opposite sex, and precluded by the usages of Society from availing themselves ol? many casual sources of

    employment open to others, and constantly exposed to temptations of the strongest kind, their situation is one of peculiar trial and suf-

    fering, and the Committee con sider that they could not commence their labours better than by an attempt to alleviate their condition. and

    it affords them great pleasure to be enabled to state that they entertain strong hopes of being enabled to provide them with a means of

    employment, calculated at once to contribute towards the relief of th«ir more pressing wonts, and to place them beyond reach of those evil

    inuence3 to which their destitution unhappily renders them subject.In various parts of Ireland, (particularly in the North, where labour is far more valuable than with

    U3) hundreds of girls and young

    women contribute towards their support by the Kmbroidery of Muslin, earning, according to their capacities, from Is. to 5s. a week,

    This branch of Industry ia one that promises at all times to Afford a source of employ meat — the article being one in universal aud gra-

    dually increasing use. At present, upwards of £500,000 per annum being expended (chiefly in this country) in its manufacture.

    With this branch the Association propose to commence, as from a communication ihey have had with a Firm extensively engaged

    In the trade in Glasgow. They have been given to understand, that the latter would be willing to enter into an immediate arrangement

    for the regular purchase of any quantity of Work that could be produced, engaging at the same time to provide the materials, and pay a

    fixed price for each piece of work according to quality when finished. This proposal the Committee consider an exceedingly favourabl«

    one, as it would plnce them at once in a position to commence operatiins, there being upwards of sixty girls already fully instructed ia

    Muslin Embroidery ; who could undertake first-class work, nnd would prove useful besides ia assisting in the training those of who have

    not yet received instruction.This brauch of Industry is one that merits every encouragement, affording, as it does in tlie first p

    lace the certainty of ^ ultimately

    remunerative employment, if sUndily persevered in, and in the next its perfect compatibility with the discharge of other duties, and the

    exercise of other pursuits, as it will for the most part be carried on'in tho homes of those employed, and may belaid aside or resumed at

    pleasure, and possesses besides the advantage of offering nearly all the benefits of manufacturing Industry, without any of 'he

    demoralis-

    ing effects that are too often the result of bringing persons of opposite characters and dispositions together, within the walls of ft crowded

    Knrfnrv. - •

    Factory. " • .

    The Committee having found two objections frequently urged against the present project, and anticipating that they might be often

    called on to combat them—deem it well at the outset do so ; the fi>3t, that several undertakings like the present, which have been at-

    tempted from time lo time failed. This, the Committee Ireely admit, but on a careful examination of the causes, it will be found that

    these failure s were usually the result of want of experience1,"

  • CITY ELECTION.MEETING OF THE CITIZENS OF AVATERFORD

    A large and influential meeting of the citizensof Waterford was held on Tuesday in the TownHall , at one o'clock, for the purpose of makingpreliminai y arrangements for the comingElection ;

    Sir BENJAMIN MORRIS (in the chair.)Also present—John E. Feehnn, J. Delahunty,T. Clarke. T.C. ; John A. Blake, T.O. ; T. W.Condon, M. Egan, P. Murphy, A. Ryan . T.C. ;John Hudson, J. Murphy, Alderman Slaney,John F. Dunford , John O'Brien , I'. F. Strange,M. Phelan , T.C. ; David Keogh, Rev. Mr.Flynn , P.P. ; John Lalor, T.C. ; A. Sherlock ,Doctor Barron , P. A. Maher, John lUaher, Rev .Mr. Ryan , P. Kielj, Owen Power , P. Fanning,Thomas Clarke , P. Manning, P. Farrell , J. Sut-ton, M. Power , John Tobin, C. Redmond,J. Supple, &c.

    Sir B. Morris , on being moved to the chair,read the requisition calling the meeting, andhoped that no one would dsviate from thoseobjects. He said that Mr.. Meagher was ahighly honorable, honest , and conscientiousman ; and it was not his fault if he had not anopportunity of advancing the interests of hisnative city. ' It was their duty to elect a manwho would best serve the inter sts of their nativecity at large (hearj hear.)

    Mr. Feehan said it was a month since Mr.Meagher had declared his intention to resign therepresentation of this city—he wrote to hi.-u notto give it up; but his resolve would not beshaken. He then called together a meeting of150 electors, who came to a resolution callingon him not to resign. Mr. F. then read Mr.M's reply, repeating his intention to resign.

    Mr. 'Clarke said , he had received two lette r*,one from Mr. Meagher, and another from Sir.H. Barron, offering to give their opposition tothe Incumbent Tax.

    Mr. Feehan begged to propose that a commit-tee of 21 be appointed to prepare resolutions forthe meeting.

    Dr. Barron asked by whose authority Mr.Feehan had written to Mr. Meagher, or recom-mended Mr. Cunningham ?

    Mr, Feehan said he never recommended Mr.Cunningham.

    Dr. Barron thought there was a clandestinecorrespondence going on between Mr. Feehanand Mr. Meagher, without consulting the citi-z -ns.

    Joe Sparrow here essayed to speak, and, onmounting a high form he said, in a very hightone, " although I have not a vote, I've avoice.'1

    A Voice—" Who killed cock robbin ?"Joe Sparrow—I respict the Chairman, and

    Mr. Sherlock, whose family and himself is over500 years ould (laughter.)

    A Voice—Joe go home and get on your bulk(laughter.)

    Joe—Git out, you blackguard ; my motherwas a Waterford woman , and I've a right toraise my voice for Ireland.

    Mr. Sherlock moved Ibat nil parties in Wa-terford regret the retirement of Mr. Meagher,and that he be returned sincere thanks.

    Rev. Martin Flynn, P, P., seconded the mo-tion.

    Mr. Strange, as Secretary to the meeting,read the resolutions adopted by the committee,and said they were so expressive that he didnot think it necssary to enlarge upon them. Thecommittee is composed of 100 electors, withpower to add to their numbars, whose duty it•will be to select two fit and proper [ ersons torepresent this city in parliamentt.

    Mr. Dunford said—Mr. Chairman, the com-mittee have entrusted to me the task , which Ishould have been glad to see committe d to onemore competent to discharge it, of proposingfor the adoption of this meeting the principleswhich have been just read by the Secretary Mr.Strange. The principles themselves are soexcellent, and are so well calculated to producegood results in guiding the electors in theirchoice of representatives , that they require noobservations from me to commend them to yournotice. I have been this day informed that therenre to be eleven Candidates for the representa-tion of this city ; and, indeed, Electors of Water-ford, I do not know whether to congratulateyou, or to sympathize with, you on the positionin which your fair daughter the " Urb3 Intacta"must feel herself, when she sees so many ardentlovers sighing at her f«'et , and aspiring to thehonour of her hand. It is clear that she cannotaccept the addresses of all her admirers ; for,although, the legislature has generously allowedher a plurality of spouses, yet that plurality islimited to two ; and, therefore, she must cast offthe rest. In making her selection however , Iam sure she will act the part of a dutiful child ,and in her present embarrassing situation, takeyou her natural guardiana into her counsel.The principles which I have to propose for youradoption will guide you in making your choice ;they are, as .I have already said, so obviousl yuseful and necessary, that I am saved the neces-sity of occupying your time by going intp anydetail upon them. At this advanced hour of theday, therefore, I will no longer delay you thanwhile proposing for your adoption the principleswhich have been read for you (cheers) .. Mr. Delahunty, after reading the names of

    the hundred electors who are to form a commit-tee, fot the purpose of selecting two fit and pro-per persons to represent the city in parliament,said, he was glad to see so much unanimityamongst the citizens. He also re ferred toTenant Right, and said that many of the evilsthat distract the country are evils arising out ofthe relations between landlord and tenant. Asto Free Trade, he thought that England hadthe best, and Ireland the worst of it; but hewould not attribute the misfortunes of the coun-try, to the operations of free trade. He thoughtthat the proceedings of the meeting that dayaugured well not only for their native city, butfor their native land. He said the committeedid not think it expedient to select a Candidatethat day ; and, as there were rleven Candidatesin the field , they could have their pick and choiceof them daughter.) He would support the besttwo men who ôuld have the most chance ofsuccess (cries of hear, t âr.}

    Mr. Patrick Kiely asked How many did thelist comprise ?

    Mr. Delahunty—One hundred, he ttu.todthey would go to work as soon as possible.

    Mr. Clarke thought that a great deal of thepoverty of the country arose fr nn bad legisla-tion the laws were not what they should be.

    Mr. Kiely—They ought to be made in Ire-land,

    Mr, Ctfrew O'Dwyer , on being called on, roseand was ' received with cheers. He hoped hewould be permitted , under the peculiar circum-stances in which he stood , to avail himselfof that opportunity to address the meeting—(hear, hear). He concurred in all the eulogythat had been so emphaticall y delivered on thehonourable gentleman who bad expressed his

    intention to retire from Parliament. The poethad trul y described the beautiful excellence ofcharacter in pronouncing an honest man as God'anoblest work ; and Mr. Meagher was entitledto that designation (cheers). If it were his(Mr. O'D's.) fortune to be chosen to succeedMr. Meagher, he would endeavour to imitatethe qualities that had secured for Mr. Meagherthe public esteem. He (Mr. O'D) trusted thwthe did not subject himself to any charge ofpresumption—he who could not bring as anoffering to his birth-place, any of the fruits oftriumph, which sometimes adorned the returnof those who had long w.indered from the homeof childhood—if he reminded the meeting thathe had the honour to be a citizen of Waterford(hear, hear). Perhaps even now there mightremain amongst them some old man who re-membered those from whom he had sprung,and that a chord of sympathy might be touchedby the recollection (cheers). The vicissitudesof life had driven him (Mr. O'D) in earlychildhood from 'he place of his birth, and insuch circumstances it happened ordinarily thatevery trace of nativi ty was obliterated, save if)the individual like himself whose memory in allthe struggles of life would ever carry him backto the scenes of youth and childish happiness.He was left to cleave his way through the world,—he had done so without stain or dishonour,and he now, when an opportunity presented it-self to him, of asserting his rights of citizenshi p,and reviewing his whole life did not hesitate toask the distinction which he undoubtedly, priz-ed, and which it was in their power to bestow.He had in his formal address developed almostat unusual length his opinions on the leadingpolitical subjects which engaged public atten-tion , and he was not less specific in his promisesthan most candidates who addressed constituen-cies (a laugh). Indeed it was the characteristicof the tribe ; all candidates promised largely,and to believe themselves they were the mostpnr

    remembered in Ireland with honor—the manwho enunciated a doctrine so unpalatable to Irisharistocrats , as to be considered at the time ahunpardonable fallacy—he (Mr. O'D.) meant himwho said that " property had its duties as wellas its rights" ; but Thomas Drummond did de-clare about this time that he wished he couldmark his sense of Mr. O'Dwyer's conduct in amanner beneficial to him, for said he, unlikeothers, he has been distinguished for a straight-forward and disinterested conduct. Influencedby this motive, he offered him [Mr. O'D;][who could never give him anything in return,and without any solicitation on h:s part], anofficial employment, which led to his [Mr.O'Dwyer's] late appointment in the Court ofEquity Exchequer, which Court has beenabolished. This office was held by Patent, andbeing held for bis [Mr. O'D's.] life of course,the value of it , when abolished, was secured tohim for his life, under the authority of the actof parliament. 11 surely would be plain injusticeto take away an office from a man, who wasappointed for life, without securing him fromloss [hear, hear.] He presumed no one wouldbe so absurd as to say, that it was wrongto acceptemployment in the public service, when it wasgiven find accepted on honorable terms, andwithout any surrender of principle [hear, hear].Surely no man would argue that to be a publicservant was in the abstract dishonorable. Ifso, the judges of the land who were appointedto discharge functions without which societycould not exist, instead of being sustained bythe respect of the community, would be held inno better estimation than a band of Janissaries.He ' cared not a fig' to use a vulgar phrase, forthe power of any government. He was perfectlyindependent. He held his " compensation" forhis abolished office , by the authority of an actof Parliament, being precisely the same autho-rity by which the Queen held her throne , or anyman held his private estate—his title was asgood as either ; and the difference between himand others was precisely this—he had got anoffice and was perfectly independent—otherswere looking for offices— Wf re making wonder-ful protestations of honesty, and were at thesame time dependent (hear, hear). He wishedto know whether he, with his settled indefeasibleincome, which he could sell, if he pleased, likehis estate , which he defied Lord Derby or LordJohn Russell to tako from him, were not moreindependent than any of the numerous menwho went in to Parliament for the sole purposeof getting office, and who could not live if of-fice were not to be finally reached ? Besides,would it be more satisfactory if the fruits ofhis office, which only augmented his means ofdoing good , were in the pocket of some politi-cal adversary, who would employ them in doingall the mischief in his power ? He would there-fore rest satisfied that every man of sense orreflection must admit that he (Mr. O'D) was asindependent of government as any other nun inthe country. Passing from this subject, whichhe hoped he had disposed of to their satisfac-tion, he would rapidly advert to the otherpoints of his address—if they elected him hewould say that he for one would never supportany government that was exclusively aristocra-tic. The time was come when the national in-terests of the country should be represented ,and there should henceforward be mixed up ingovernment no small quantity of popular ma-terial. He expected to see in government , themerchant, the manufacturer, and men of intel-lectual energy unconnected with aristocaacy—(hear, hear). He was anxious to get rid ofLord Derby, and he could not listen to thecuckoo cry of "give him a fair trial ." Whyhe has had a fair trial and has been convictedmany a year since (cries of hear, hear)—in his (Mr. O'D's) estimation when he heard himas Lord Stanley lay down the doctrine that" Ireland should be taught to fear, before shewould learn to love," and again there stood ano-ther conviction recorded against him last year,which was attended with cumulative penalty—when he called on the late government to prose-cute under the Titles Aggression Bill as it iscalled. His (Mr. C. O'Dwycr's.) addressasked for complete equality for the Catholicpeople of Ireland—whut equality could therebe, whilst there was a rich Established Churchsupported by a poor people who had nothing todo with it, but pay for it ? (cheers). He wouldnot utter a word offensive to the religious opi-nions of his honorable friend in the chair, and heonly spoke of the temporalities of this church.If there were truth in this church as his honora-ble friend believed, the truth would survive al-though the tithes should die. It was mons-trous that at this moment in many parts ofIreland the priests of the people were unable tolive and keep a house over their heads, whilsta church establishment contributing only to thecomfort of a minority reared its ascendantfront amongst them. His views on the questionof free trade, were intelligible. He wouldresist every attempt to restore protection. Hehowever would; vote for relief cf local burthens,such for instance as support of Jails which hethought formed part of the administration ofjustice and should be defrayed out of the consoli-dated fund. He would vote for such alteration inthe poor law system a3 would make the poorhouse in many cases self-supporting—he wouldadjust the Landlord and Tenant question on equi-table principles-—improve the franchise, by mak-ing it independent of poor law , which lets in in-numerable frauds he would support a thoroughIrish party—a party that would devote itself to theelevation of the nation, and would disregard com-bination for mere personal purposes—he wouldendeavour to raise up Ireland, rather than knockdown governments, but ha would demolish everygovernment that stood in the way of Ireland.He pledged himself, if he were elected, to devotehimself assiduously to the local interests . Theworld had progressed within the last forty-years—Waterford had stood still , if it had not goneback. The existence of the bridge was an illus-tration (hear, hear.) He (Mr. O'D.) would notinjure vested rights, but he thought justice tothe community could he done, without doinginjustice to any individual in his property. Itwas a nuisance, deeply injurious to the poor andindustrious. For example a rich man with athousand pounds in his pocket might walk acrossthe bridge and pay his halfpenny toll , whilst apoor egg woman with not three-halfpence inher pocktt , should pay a penny of her threehalf-pence to enable her to pass (hear.) He (Mr. D.)would suggest a fund which, if he were a mem-ber for Waterford, he would resort to—at leasthe would make the experiment—he would ex-plain it . When he sat for Drogheda, he pro-cured returns of the amount of crown and quitrents received in Ireland and Scotland respec-tively, with a specification of the sums expendedin each country, from such sources for local pur-Poses. He found, when the return was made,that from one source of revenue or another,between £6o,ooo«nd £70,000 a-year had beenderived from th,s Wch f ' . j , dand that scarcely any port on of it had beenon Irish purposes,—that in fact o» w £ [to decorate Trafalgar Square and Pimlico, ,̂ ;̂in Scotland the entire sum [it was not very

    Inrge but it illustrated Scottish habits] -wasexpended iiu Scotland [cheers]. He wouldnow make a, present of the inference from thispiece of information to the future member forWaterford, whoever he might be. If he[Mr. O'D.]1 should be the man, he pledgedhimRelf to make an effort, and he believed inhis conscience he would succeed, to rid Water-ford of the bridge nuisance [hear, hear.]In conclusion he would merely point to the lastparagraph of his address, and express his ardenthope that it might be his good fortune to rea-lise the vision which he described. Althoughhe wished to combine all sections of the Liberalparty in his favor, he sincerely said that he wasnot influenced by any paltry motive in referringto this melancholy subject. He long had feltthat much power bad been running to waste ,and at all times he wished to see all Irishmenunited. An an illustration , trifling in itself hemight say, that almost the last time that O'Con-nell and Smith O'Brien ever met in social inter-course, they met at his humble board (hear,hear). He knew that H the Liberator couldspeak from his grave, he would tell them to ba-nish the miserable feuds that divided them andweakened their country, and he was sure thatif the voice of S. O'Brien could now reach themfrom his lonely walk , he would bid them for thesake of this unhappy country to unite. O'Con-nell would speak to them, if he could adjure themfrom his deep grave, and warn . them againstdivision :—

    " They'll say, 'twas ftite, 'twos wayward fate,Yeur web of discord wove,

    For whilst your tyrants joined in hate,You never joined in lore."

    He (Mr. O'D) too would exhort them to unite—union for the sake of Ireland—union nowagainst the common enemy, and against anyTory who meditated a blow against the inde-pendence of their city. Mr. O'Dwyer conclu-ded amid applause.

    Mr. Hudson said he agreed with nearly everyword that fell from Mr. Carew O'Dwyer , nnd hewas satisfied with the truth of what he said ;but he hoped the electors would remain un-pledged till they had all the electors beforethem. Even bad members—too many of whomthey had in Ireland—were in the habit of mak-ing good speeches on the hustings. He thoughtthat as Mr. O'Dwyer was a native of the city ofWaterford , he had some claims on the citizens.Mr. H. then read a portion of Mr. O'D's add^es^and said he thought there was an absence ofcandour in not admitting that he was a place,holder, under a Whig Government ; yet, he didnot mean to say that he was not perfectly inde-pendent.

    Mr. O'Dwyer said it was quite true, as wasstated in his address, that he never, receivedoffice while he was in parliament ; and that hewas a poorer man when he left it.

    Mr. Hudson asked Mr. O'D. was he invitedhere ?

    Mr. O'Dwyer said no one invited him here,and hoped that he being a Waterford man wasnot against him (hear.)

    Mr. Hudson said he was not prejudicedagainst Mr, Dwyer ; but he imagined that Mr .O'D. ought to go to Drogheda where the peoplehad a trial of him (hear, haar.)

    Mr. O'Dwyer said he addressed the electorsof Drogheda on SatuHay ; but , as three liberalswere in the field , he did not wish to weaken thepopular interest (hear, hear.) Mr. O'Dwyerread an article from the Drogheda Argus, whichappears elsewhere in the News.

    Mr. Condon said it was curious that a para-graph appeared in a Drogheda paper on Friday,stating what was not known in Waterford.

    Mr. Dunford remarked that Mr. O'Dwyer'sintention for starting for this city, was knownin Waterford three weeks ago.

    Mr. Con .on sai:l , we deny that any Candidateseeking favor from a British Government canhe an independent man—he was sure that themen who> battled four years ago against thissystem—men who stood against every influence—would not go back again to it , no matterwhat might be said about retrograde movements(hear, hear.) It was all nonsense to think thata man who takes a situation from a BritishGovernment, can be independent. Did any oneevery know a man who took a situation under aBritish Government, who did not become anenemy of Ireland ? He knew they rtould nevervote for Mr. O'Dwyer—aothing will induce themen whom he knew to vote for a Whig or Toryplaceman (cheers.)

    Mr. O'Dwyer did not know why a gentlemanwho goes into a committee to ascertain the quali-fications of every man, should call him a Whig,or Tory placeman ?

    Mr. Hudson regretted that such observationsshould have been made use of here. The committee was the best place to consider them,where, in fact , the merits of the several candi-dates should be considered.

    Mr. Sherlock thought they should draw afavorable conclusion from Mr. O'Dwyer's speechand conduct as a member. He thought it wasthe duty of the committee to make a selectionwhen the question ciine before them, and nottill then. Mr. S. then read for the meeting aportion of Mr. Ball's (his nephew 's) address.

    Mr. Condon said he wanted to fight the cityunder a spotless banner ; and he wondered thatMr. O'Dwyer was heard by the meeting ; for he(Mr. C.) must confess that it was with painfulindignation he had listened to him (hear,hear.)

    Mr. O'Dwyer—When any gentleman wondersthat another is heard , he has a very intolerantway of showing liis toleration, and cannot be alover of liberty (hear, hear.) If the doctrine ofMr Condon be carried out, two ToryCandidateswill represent the city (hear).

    Mr. Condon said this was not a time for cavil—Ireland was going to ruin, and he saw a youngfamily growing up about him. How could theyform a national party, if parties were connectedwith the national Exchequer ? He .(Mr. C.)told Mr, O'Dwyer that he would not be returnedfor Waterford—that he might go home again—he (Mr C.) knew the feeling>-and opinions of100 electors, who would never vote for him(hear.) \

    Mr. Dunford said that the committee hadshown favor neither to Ball nor to O'Dwyer.The committee can, however, hear what eachcandidate has to say, and then act as they like.Mr. O'Dwyer (said Mr. D ) has candidly statedthat he will retire, if the committee shall de-cide against him [cheers].

    Dr. Barron—They both appear in the cate-gory of pensioners,

    Mr. O'Dwyer—Many of your own name havegot pensions (laughter, and hear, hear.)

    Mr. Hudson regretted this discussion inpublic.

    Mr. Feehan said he, for one, never supportedWhigs ; ana he was sure that those gentlemenwho put in Mr. Meagher, never asked him for afavour

    C I T Y O F W A T E R F O R D(From the Evening Post) .

    We have given an account of a meeting of the LiberalElector* of Waterford , held on Tuesday, for the selectionof two suitable Candidates. One of the late members ,Mr. Meagher, has persevered in his determination to re-tire. One of the Candidates, Mr. Carew O'Dwyer,whilst Agreeing with ourselvts on most essential points ,goes beyond u< on others ; in fact, lie is , on some ques-tions, rather too Radical for our taste. The learnedgentltman had been, when Member for Drog lieda , anadvocate for Repeal of the Union ; and still bi« opinion*on certain questions are too ultra for u». But this, wesuppose, will be calculated to ensure his success inWaterford . Besides, we proceed upon Ihe rational andcommon sense rule of waiving differences upon minorpoints , when thorough union in support of men pledgedto Liberal and anti-Orang* policy is so imperatively re-qoired. Another gentleman, possessing high qualifica-tions, has been spoken of at a Candidate ; but, as bennot yet actually in the field , we shall not at presentmake further referenct to the subject.

Any Liberal that is not sa-tisfied with the princi ples and opinions put for-watd in (his document , we think that he mustbe hard to be pleased.

    Tn another part of this day'* Upper is given a SpecialReport of the meeting of elector for the city of Water-ford yesterdaj. This report, furnished by one of thereporters of the TELEGRAPH , will be found of greatinterest , f»r beyond the place that it was held ; for , itwill be seen that the electors have taken their affairs1 intotheir own hands ; and , eo (loin;:, we have little doubtthey will , in selecting two men ai fitted to representtheir independence, their Catholicity, and their nation-ality, be not for one moment deluded by the vague de-clarations of those who talk loosely of an Irish Party,without at the same time pledging themrelrei to be ofthat party, which, on the proposal of the Bishop of Clon-fcrt, was approved of by the Catholics at their grea tmeeting in August , viz., " lho *c faithfulrep reidilaticetwho , in tbe Uot Session of Parliament to energeticallyderoted themselves to the formation ofan independentparty in tho legislature , having for its object the main-tenance of civil and religious libcity in tbe British Em-pire."

    " An Irith Party" diminet from that par ty, thuBrigade, is a . delusion. The words "an Irish Party,"or "u Naiionaf Party," used In *ny other »emo than a»bearing upon that party, are only employed to deceive.Men elected merely become they use vague words atthe huntings , may, in Parliament , become Whigs ormnyturn Tories, bill never can he true to tbe cause of thefarmers or of tbe Church of Ireland.

In this way it purifies the blood of excess otbile , acid*, and olkulis , of all foreign and morbid matter,»nd brings it into a healthy condition. In this w»y it isthat tbis medicine is conveyed to th« liter, where it allay*influnimation , or relieves congestion , removes ob-itruetioiw , cleanses & heals abcessei , disolves gummy orthickened bile 8nd excites henlihy secretions in ihii organ.In this way, also , is this medicine conducted to the lungi,Wherein it assuages inflammation, alkyi Irritation , re-lieves coug h, promotes expectoration , dissolves tubercles,and heals ulcerations. In like manner it acli on th«toiuaeh to iieiitraline acidity, remove flatulence, otbihty,

    heartburn , nausea , restore tone, appetU« , &c. In th«same way this good medicine acts upon the kidneys, onthe bowels on the joints , bones, and the skin.
