      MEETING OF THE REPEAL ASSOCIATION . Oa Monday the attendance at the . Repeal Association ¦ was crowded aa npon the former occasion when Mr . O'Connell appeared for the first time after his imprisonment- The enthusiasm ¦ was great , and much anxiety exhitrted to behold him . About half-past twelve o ' clock , the leading members of tba committee , Mr . Jobn O'ConneU , M . P ., Mr . Smith O"Brien , M . P ., ilr . N . Maber , M . P ., Mr . Barry , barrister , Mr . M-Nevin , barrister , took their places at the association , amid loud cheers . They were followed by Mr . O'Connell , and the enthusiastic greetings burst forth on his appearance , which were renewed again Bnd again , and could only be at length suppressed by his intimating his intention to address the Association . Upon his motion the chair was taken by the Honourable Gaorge Hely Hntchinson .

      Air . Hutchixso : n observed that , though a young msmD-r , he was still an old Rspealer , although not so old as their Liberator—( cheers ) . From the moment he had been able to form an opinion on the subject , and after having studied the MBtory of his country , he had decided in his own mind that the measure the moat disastrous that had ever been entailed upon this country had been the legislative nnion between England and Ireland —( cheers ) . Some five-antl-twenty years had passed over his he . d since he had come to that opinion , and everything that had since occurred had only tended to strengthen that opinion , and increased the determination to do the utmost that lay in his power in doing away with a measure that had entailed so much of misfortune and disgrace upon his country—thear , hear ) . The people of EDglind , he remained , were beginning to discover how difficult it was to manage the affairs of the three kingdoms . The English Parliament had quite enough to do to attend to its own afiairs ; and

      the consequence was , that at the end of the session many frills had to be laid aside , or were passed in the moat Iovecly manner . There were only two courses open for tbe English Government—either to proceed with further steps of coercion , —or something which was still more dangerous , in his opinion , and that was the arrival of tbe Whigs in power , and the using on their part of bribery and treachery , Tbe Whigs had always professed great things ; bat be did hope tha * forewarned waa foreaimed , and that now if this attempt was made , it would not succeed ; but that determined they would stand together , and never abandon the cause of R ? peal . There Were two reasons why they must succeed . One was that they would not . resort to violence , but continue in the course which their great leader had marked . Tze second was that the holy war in which they w ^ re engaged , called down the blessings of the Almighty . In conclusion , he said , that conciliating all with peace and perseverance , they ccnltl not but succeed—rcbeerw .

      Tne Secretakt having read the minutes cf the last day ' s proceedings , Ms . -0 "Coi > XEi . i . rose and banded ia £ 1 Os 6 < 1 from Edinburgh , and in doing so said he would avail himself of that opportunity of calling the attention of the Repeal WardenB of Scotland to the existence of secret societies amongst the Irish there . He was very sorry to learn that ihey had formed societies under the detested name of " Ribborrhen , " for he had known Ribbonism do more mischief to the cause of Ireland than ary olber faction whatever . Thty had also in Scotland other Eecret societies under the name of " United Irishmen , " and he Relieved also of ' RecbaMtes . " It

      would be necessary for the Repeal Wardens of Scotland to take care that the names of acy Repealers who may belong te these Associations . shall be at osce erased from their books . He felt it due to those delnded men , to let them know that every one of them who joined a secrel society rendered himself liable to transportation by the law of tbe land , and placed himself at the mercy of spies a- ; d bloodsnckeia . The Honourable and Learned Gentleman then moved the suspension of tbs standing order , and a resolution that it be referred to the general committee to prepare an addres 3 to the Irish in Scotland , warning them against joining the secret societies : to which he had alluded . Ttie motion was carried unanimously .

      Mr . O'Conxell re * d & letter from Mr . John M . cnamara CanSwell , one of tbe tiaversers' attorneys in the late gi /» trnment prosecution , h&nd ' ng in his subscrip . tion , and declaring bis adhesion to the Association as a FedeT&iist Tne Honourable and Learned G-ntleman moved tbe insertion of tbe letter on the minutes , and said that tbcnkh Mr . C . iBtwett joined the Association merely as a Federalist , he was fully entitled to join their ranks on that footing . He was gratified at having that opportunity fof declaring their readiness to concur with lriEhmen of every shade and party in politics , who went the length with them of giving to Ireland acd to Irishmen tile prstfcctiuu v ! a natiTo Parliament . Without a Parliament which would give Irishmen protection—which would give Ireland to the Irishthere could be no security for tbe continuance of any irotection or prosperity that they mi « ht acqui-e . Taking it in that view , they would embrace Federalism , and heartily concnr with those whom they conld not induce to accompany them further—( hear ) .

      Mr . Smith O'Brien would take that public opportunity of svating , that , at the great national banquet , to be given on TLursday next , the " Repeal of the Uaion" was one of the toasts that it was intended should be proposed—( hear , bear ) . He made that announcement because some doubt seemed to be entertained in certain quarters on the subject . As far as he was personally concerned , be certainly would net , at the present crisis of Irish affairs , consent to take the chair at any pnblic dinner at ¦ which tbe R ? pea ) of the Union -would not be a recognised toast ; and he believed he was justified in saying , on the part

      of Mr . O'Connell and the other tx-prisontrs , that they would not attend at any dinner at which that toast was not intended to be drunk—( "hear , hear , " from Mr . O'Connell and cheers ) . He should at the tame time say that every true F * 4 eraUst was at perfect liberty , consistently with his principles , to drink the toast of—the Repeal of the Union . They had many gentlemen of that class in the Association , who war ? admitted merely as Federalists ; and the same feeling which prompted them to join the Association , ought to enable them to attend the national banquet to be given in commemoration of the liberation of Mr . O'Connell—( hear ) .

      ilr . O'COSNELL said , though it was rather irregular tor him to speak again Bt that moment , he trusted that be would be allowed to express bis entire concurrence in wfeat his esteemed friend by his side ( Mr . S . O'JBritn ) had just stated . He would not receive the highest compliment , higher than ; tbe invitation to the national banquet , to be given on Thursday , that would compromise for a moment the Repeal of tbe Union—( cheers ) . The Repeat of the Union meant a repeal of an Act of Parliament passed in the year 1800 , by tehieJt the Irish Parliament had been annihilated : JLKD . IHEHEFOfiE , HE SHOULD SAT THAT A FEDERAL PaKLIAMEST , GIV 1 > G THE MANAGEMENT OF 7 HEJB XATIOSAA AFFAIRS TO IRISHMEN , WAS ONE THAT HE WAS 4 EITS B . EADT TO RECEIVE . He WRS COnvineed that a Federal Parliament would work well for Ireland , and if it did not , he was convinced it would give the means of working bttt&r—Shear , hear ) . Mr . O'Connell concluded by banding in £ 25 from Liverpool A deputation , consisting of three gentlemen from Liverpool , heHi presented an addresB to Mr . O'Connell , congratulatory on his liberation . At Mr . 0 'Cor > nelTs request , the reading of the address did not take place in the Association . Mr . O'Connell then rose amidst loud cheers , and proceeded to say that it was his duty to call the attention of the Association to the matters of which he had given Lctice on the last day of meeting . They were , perhaps , too bnoya-t in their spirits on that day te regulate with care and consideration the mighty concerns of the nation ; for the concerns of Ireland were now in their hands—( hear , and cheers ) . They were arrived at a period when , if they acted with discretion , and prudence , and propriety , the Repeal of tbe Union was not only certain , bnt near at hand—( cheers ) . He even doubts a whether they were able to spoil their cause ; in any case it was in a prominent and a powerful situation ; but he also knew that an awful responsibility hung over them . The

      liberty of Irelatd was at stake ; the prosperity of the people of Ireland was at Btake ; the restoration to Ireland ef her national Parliament was at stake . All the blessings that the constitution can give , above all , the combination of the different sects and persuasions in one bond of Christian charity and affection , all these important concerns were now at stake . They had arrived at a time when they could be free if tbey deserved it , and conducted themselves accordingly—( cheers ) . They were then somewhat more sober than they were last week—( laughter ) . Tkey had been , then , naturally warm vii \ h the trinmph which they had obtained , but more Bober thoughts bad come upon them since . Every thought and reflection which he since had , convinced him more and more that the hour of liberty was at hand , and that they should be free if they conducted themselves as freemen ought to do ( cheers ) . The first which he rind to

      subject bring before tbe association , in pursuance of the notice o ! motion which be had given on the last day of meeting , -was , that it be referred to the committee to report on the necessity of holding the Clentarf meeting—( cheers ) . He had preceded the announcement of that subject by describing tbe increasing disposition of mutual forbearance among all classes ot the community as one of the strongest motives for regulating the future conduct of tke Association in calling that meeting . His own opinion was , that the Clontarf jneeting wai now unnecessary ; and he was sure , if it was not necessary , it ought not to be persevered in , as it would be considered to have too much the appearance of triumph and defiance . That meeting had been legally convened—its purposes and its objects were legal , and its suppression was unjustified by lav and onsanctloned by any constitutional prind-

      pie . Need they now vindicate that principle ? He thought not ; and that for this reason , that tbe indictmeDt itaelf had dene so . The five first counts of the indictment declared their meetings to be illegal ; but the council for the Crown were obliged , In open court , to consent that thtse counts should be pronounced falsehoods , and that they should bo acquitted of the charges of holding illegal meetings . The principle was therefore already established , and they were , therefore , under no necessity of vindicating it . They would thus shew to their fellow countrymen , of every religious per-BuaBion , their anxiety to take no step In the Repeal cause that is not absolutely necessary for its success . They had demonstrated that completely , and , therefore , though he would go through the form of

      referring the subject to tbe committee on account of its importance , it would be with the anticipation that the committee wouia decide as he had done , that the Clontarf meeting would not now be necessary ( hear , hi < ir ) . The next subject to which he had to refer was the formation of a Preservative Society . He thought that society ought to bo formed of men who would make a sacrifice for the service of their country , and he thought it would be well that they should be entirely distinct from that association ; that each bhould be distinct from and uncontrolled by tke other . Ee wanted to eive the principle of fixity to their arrangements , and to remove tbe impression that any of the institutions of the country were to be injured or disturbed by the Repeal of the act of union . If there was one thing that would tend more than another to inspire

      confidence , it would be in having persons of property formed together , in an association for the re-establishment of an Irish Parliament . He agreed with his friends Mr . Grattan and Mr . O'Brien , that a contiuuance of the union would cause a real danger to property , but he did not go so far as Mr . O'Brien when be said that he would resist sepa ration as long as he could resist it . FjT bis-( Mr . O'Connell ' s ) part he would never consent to separation under any circumstances , and he would give up the Repeal to-morrow if he thought it would lqad to such a result On tbe contrary , one of his reasons for working for the Repeal was , that he was most firmly convinced that it weuld be the only means of maintaining thu connection between tbe two countries . The Hon . and Leai ned Gantieman then read se 7 eral extracts

      from Mr . Gray Porter ' s pamphlet on Federalism , in support of the same opinions , and then continued to say tbat the Preservative Society , acting like a kind of Honsu of Lords , would , when brought into operation , be most advantageous in removing all false impressions and alaims from tbe minds ot the landed proprietors of the country . The third subject which he bad to bring forward , was that of the impeachment of the Ministry . With respect to the Judges , he thought the better course would be to have an address to the Crown from both Houses of Parliament for their removal , as was the case in the removal of Sir Jonah Bamngton . That would be the most constitutional principle , as it would require an inquiry before Parliament in the first instance . He would now come to the address to the

      people of- England , 3 nd the impeachment of the Attorney-General—( loud cheers ) . There was no need for him to tntei into the details of the trial j but he wanted to know this : they had heard much of English sympathy— ihear , hear ) . He was loaded witb letters , telling him tbat he -was wrong in fixing on tbe English people the faults of their governors , and that be should nwt have used such harsh language towards them . Now , he must remind the English people , with all respect , that tbey had borne with the greatest patience that the Times should lavish the foulest abuse upon their Irish brethren , and should call their priesthood fiurpliced ruffians—hooded incendiaries—monkish assaBsina , " and inemselvea " felonious multitude "—( loud cheering ) . Now , if he called them Saxons , was it not a

      very mitigated term , compared with the language be had quoted from the Times , at the period when writing the Whigs out and the Tories in , which it mainly succeeded in by exciting a spirit of anti-Irishism and a No Popery cry in England—( cheers ) . Saxon was no term of reproach . It w : is an henoured name , and tbe purest portion of liberty wns derived from S » xon laws and institutions—tbe parliamentary system , trial by jury—( cheersj—and the shrivalty—( cheers )—but even if it were a disgraceful name , was not "felonious multitude" rather worso ?—( loud cheers ) . Was not " hooded assassins" as bad as " Saxon ? " Was not " monkish tyrants" and " surpliced ruffians" quite as strong as " Saxon ?"'—( loud cheers ) . But I'll tell Englishmen what 1 II do , said the Honourable

      Gentleman—I'll make a bargain with them . Let them forgive me , * ' Saxon , " and I'll forgive the complimentB of the Time 4—( cheers a :: d laughter ) . I will remind you bow i wa > received in England during tbe dlscuBBion of tbe writ of error—I was received most kindly and cheered in my exertions . Mr . O'Connell proceeded to eulogise tbe Covent Garden Theatre dinner , and the warmth of his reception at various times in England . He was , he continued , now arrived at the time when he would test tbe English—( cheers ) . There should be no more discussion one way or another aa to what their feelings towards Ireland were—( cheers ) . On tbis question they woul'i either join Ireland or not , and one way or another the public mind would be tested—( loud cheers ) . He told England from that place , that

      if she joined them they would do her ample justice , nd would sound her praise in shouts whose echoes should reach themselves again . They would pray tbat she might be great and powerful that she might obtain every advantage in peace and victery in war—( cheers ) . He promised them in return the lion heart and stout hand of Ireland—( cheers ) . He promised them her glowing intellect and the congregatloa of her virtues—her temperance , her morality , her chastity—(! ou « l cheers ) . He promised them the ¦ whole &f tbeBe , if they joined Ireland in obtaining tbe victory over injustice—( cheers ) . He had a right to expect it . Let the people of England give up the humbugging idea of deluding Ireland —< cheers )—and either join her heart and hand , or allow her to consider them as her bitterest

      enemy—( loud cheering ) . Her bitterest enemy , besnid , because England stood between them and her oppressor , and would not remain nentral—icbeerB ) . England , however , must now take a part with them or against them—( cheers ; . Ha offered her the allegiance of the Irish people , who w nld mak ^ L mis Philippe tremble on his throne , and WbuM wipe away tbe disgrace or Mogador . But be had a price . He vat to be bribed , and bis bribe was justice—( cheers ; . In return for tbat he would make Eogland the greatest of nations—( cheers ) . He was amused with a passage of the judgment of the House of Lords , wherein they commanded that he and his fellows " should be restored to all that they had lost ''—( cheers and laughter ) . There was the

      solemn judgment of the House of Lords for them—( laughter ) . How could they give him back three months of his life —( renewed cheering and laughter ) f An inch was a good deal in a man's nose , and three months was something at his time ef life— ( cheers and laughter ) . They might » top tbe clock , but not thb flood of time . What could they do ? They could punish the authors of this wrong , whom he would be ready to forgive when they had acknowledged their offences . Having referred to other circumstances of the state trials , and inveighed against Judge Burton and tbe other , judges , the learned gentleman concluded a lengthened speech by a vivid picture of the triumph of tbe Irish people when their Parliament should be restored to them , amidst loud applause .

      After some further business bad been disposed of , Mr . O'Connell announced tbe rent for the week to be £ 715 . The meeting then adjourned .

      THE REPEAL REXT—STATE PROSECUTIONS . ( From the Correspondent of the Chronicle . ) Dublin , September 12 . The expenses of the traversers in the state prosecutions were enormous . Every possible obstacle had been cast in tbe way of the defendants , and the Grown prosecuters exacted every expensive formality which they were empowered to enforce , all through that protracted and gigantic litigation , from tbe very first step to the ultimate reversal of the judgment . No private

      purse could have sustained the defence against a prosecution under such circumstances ; and most fortunate it was that tbe Repeal Association had been provided ¦ with ample fundB to fight the constitutional battle against the Government , with the public treasury at its back . I have learned with surprise , that the Repeal fnnds have been found much more than equal to tke expenditure caused by the state prosecutions . I have heard that a large sum , nearly £ 20 , 000 , is likely to remain tb the credit of the Repeal Association , after all the expenses shall have been defrayed .

      loudly cheered . ] Tha Repealers owed that gentleman much . He was tbe consistent advocate of the people ' s rights . The Masters and Servants ' Bill would hare become law , if it had not been f rom the vigilant care and attention of that gentleman in the House of Commons . He was happy to state that the Liberator had Ret them a good example by forwarding to the ' Testimonial" his subscription of £ 5 . The Association had also sent £ 25 —( loud cheers ) . Several other able speeches were delivered , and it was agreed that the name of one of the wardens should be sent from each ward on Thursday eext , to form a committee for the collection of the Duncombe Testimonial After the settling of some business connected with the wards , it was announced that between nine hundred and one thousand persons had enrolled themselves during the past week .

      Lincoln ' s-Inn i ieldsWakd . —TempkbanceHall , Clements-Lane , Strand . — On Sunday evening last , a crowded meeting was held in tha above hall , Mr . M'Lee in the chair , who , in a brief speech , explained the object for which they had met , and was followed by Mr . Calanan . He said : here we are , the victims of partial laws and more partial administrators . Ireland has been , daring seven centuries , unjustly judged . During the last three , the cap of her woes was drenched and embittered by the additional drug of roligiou 8 bigotry ; whilst the last forty years saw the Orange inceudiary casting in his caustic cure

      into her bitter chalice . Shall these things continue ? It has been said by all writers on jurisprudence that bad laws well administered can be made a blessing We have been cursed with good laws ill administered . This was the evil spirit that buffet tod our fathers and ground them to the dust . O'Connell's new administration will , at last , in God's good time , let us see and feel what impartial justice means . Mr . Calanan eat down amid enthusiastic applause . Messrs . Dunn and Healey then addressed tho meeting at great length , and 200 associates were enrolled .

      Lord French ' s Ward . —On Sunday evening last , a numerous meeting of this Ward was held at the Fountain and Still , Golden-lane , Cripplegate . Mr . Sullivan presided . Among the gentlemen that addressed the meeting was , Mr . T . O'Callaghan , late of the city of Cork who wa 3 introduced by Dr . Looney . He said I congratulate you , I sincerely congratulate you , on . your present position . You have had a glorious triumph in the rosont decision of the Houso of Lords , by which Ireland ' s Liberator has been restored to freedom , and the iniquitous sentence pronounced against him by a partiztm Judge , and founded on an illegally constructed jury , reversed . What a glorious triumph ! How nobly achieved , and how temperately enjoyed . There

      was no party exultation for the aggrandisement of a few at the expense of the many —but the honest jjoy of a right loyal and devoted people that their leader was restored to jthem , and the constitutional right of the subject vindicated by the decision of the highest legal authority in the land . Irishmen are providentially grateful ; and their gratitude to Lords Danman , Cottenham , and Campbell should be as deep and lasting as is their love of justice . Ministers tried a dangerous experiment by the incarceration of your illustrious leader . They sought in bis person to strangle constitutional right , by the application of Constructive law ; but they have signally failed ; for despotism has been laid prostrate , and

      O'Connell is free . You asked for justice for yom country ; but they answer your just demands , by contumelious insult . They fling your illustrious chieftain into a felon ' s Cell . Let not this goading wrong provoke you into any act of vioteuce or retaliation . You were true to yourselves and your conduct throughout has been marked by a peaceful , calm , and determined dignity . O , what would they not have given had the brand they Hung amongst you ignited your inflammable passions , and stimulated you to the commission of an overt aot of violence : but the vile experiment has not succeeded with you , and it never shall . They may again violate the sanctuary of the Constitution ; they may

      one day again drag from its shrme the idol of a people ' s political worship , and consign him to the abode of infamy and guilt ; they may do all this , and apply other and more exasperating irritants to your national sensibility ; but insolent and sanguinary tyrants that they are ! they never shall succeed in bringing you into undutifulness to your country , nor retard you by one point in your steady march to freedom . The eloquent ppeakcr resumed his seat amidst loud choers . Mr . W . J . O'Connell , Inspector General , entered the room , having previously visited the Shored itch ward . ; He addressed tho meeting at great length . At the conclusion of the meeting it was announced that seventy persons had enrolled themselves as associates .

      Gbav ' s Inn Ward —Albert , Giiay ' s-ine-Lane . — A largu meeting of this ward was held on Sunday evening last . Mr . O'Sullivan was called to tho chair .

Farrin « don Ward . —The usual weekly meeting of thiu word was hold oa Sunday lu . it , ut the Union Arms , Holborn Hill . Mr . C . Elland , in the chair . Mr . Rathbone , aa Englishman , and lately a convert , addressed the meeting in an elaborate speech ,

      6 howmg that democracy was making rapid strides in Europe , and alluded to the moral revolution now going on in Sweden , which would bhake despotism to its very base . He contrasted it with the late Reform Bill , which was opposed by the aristocracy , but was ultimatel y carried . Several oiher speeches were delivered by Messrs . Elland , Reading , Foley , and Lee . Among various extracts that were read from the public journals , were some from an article in the Northern Star on Sweden . Twenty were enrolled . AH the wards was crowded , on Sunday , and great numbers were enrolled .

      Liberator ' s Ward —On Monday evening last , a crowded meeting of the Repealers of tbe Shadwell district was held in the Hall of Love , of the Philanthropic Institution . The Rov . Mr . Moore , C . C , who has lately returned from a visit to the Liberator in Dublin , was called to the chair . Ho at great length drew the attention of an attentive auditory to the late magnificent procession in Dublin , and which he said was beyond the power of pen to describe . He said he should be often with them , to assist in the regeneration of Fatherland . The Rev . Gentleman , on concluding an able address , was loudly cheered . Mr , C . M'Carthy , It . W ., came forward , and briefly alluded to the late moral victory

      achieved by Ireland over her oppressors . He said , we are here to obey tho law : I recommend that course to you . But we never can sit quietly looking on should Proclamation-Peel attempt to butcher the Irish people . Let us all unite . Let us raise our voices . Let us rally under the Ropoal banner ; and as sure as tomorrow ' s iight , so suro shall corruption yield , and the sun of liberty burst on our land , warming and fertilising every hill and valley in our native isle —( cheers ) . Mr . Roche , R . W ., then read tho spoech of the Liberator at the last meeting in the Conciliation Hall , which was received with loHd cheers . The meeting then separated , having enrolled above fiftv .

      SANATORY IMPROVEMENT IN HUDDERS

      FIELD . The Committee of influential gentlemen , appointed by a Public Meeting of the Inh ibitants to prepare a Bill to secure a more copious supply of water , effect many other sanatory regulations , and consolidate the powers conferred by the local acts of the town into the hands of a Board of Commissioners elected by , and directly responsible to , tbe rate-payers of tbe town , held their first meeting , at the George Inn , on Monday last , at eleven o ' clock in the forenoon . Nearly all the members of the Committee , not absent from home , were present , and entered with spirit

      Introduction of the New Poor Law into Oldham and Rochdale . —A number of the principal ratepayers ! iu Oldham and the adjacent townships are taking measures with a view to tbe introduction of the New Poor Law , whilst a considerable body of the middle aud working classes are strongly opposed to the change ; and it is expected that a strenuous resistance will be made to the introduction of the new law . The Old-bam union consists of the townships of Oldham , Mtddleton , Crompton , Royton , Ctridderton , Tonge , Thornham , and Alkeringtou ; Oidham is to elect six guardians , the next four townships throe each , and the others one each . It is reported that the late irregularities in the administration of the ; parochial affairs of Oldham , a * d the

      recent mismanagement in the conducting of Middleton workhouse have produced the present proceedings . On Thursday and Monday last , the Honourable Mr . Clements , assistant Poor Law Commissioner visited Oldham , and had st > reral interviews with the magistrates aud other parties on the subject . — Manchester Guardian . — [ Hitherto all cfijris to introduce the hateful enact * mint into the two parishes of Oldham and Rochdale have been unsuccessful ; and from the following account of thejproceediags of a delegate meeting , it will be seen jthat the Poor Law Commissioners are not at the present time to have the course to themselves . We trust that the determination of the people'in both boroughs will save them

      from the horrible infliction ; and that we shall still have one ! or two " green spots" to point to , where the earth has not been cursed with the blasting sways of the Devil Kings .

" Moved by Mr . James Siott , of Koyton , seconded by Mr . John !
