I RE LA N D . As we announced upon the formation of the Coalition Ministry what Mr . O'ConnelTs ' mission was , and the way in which he would fulfil it , we may sow , with some little boast , though not of satisfaction , refer to ourselves as some authority upon the subject . We announced that the object of Mr . O'Conricll ' s mission to Ireland was the breaking up of the Repeal Association ; and we , added , tliat . he would ascribe to others the injuries inflicted on the
cause by himself . We may be told , that the Association is not broken up , butjthat , on the ^ contrary , if the people ' s willingness to subscribe their mite proves anything , that the increase of rent isv confirmation of general approval of O'Coiinell ' s conduct . This argument may suit the Times , now the most unscrupulous advocate of the Q'Connell policy , and at the same lime the most bitter opponent of the measure which O'Connell professes to support .
This is , to us , a political conundrum , which the Times only can solve . It appears that the Catholic hierarchy of Ireland , and not the Catholic people , have taken this sudden and timely jump for sustaining the old juggler in his old game of patronage . Whilst the limes seems to attach great importance to the support of the hierarchy , we would caution the ministers from drawing similar conclusions from this cause . The fact is , as we often annour . ccd , that although , party squabbles have , in a great measure , been abandoned , nevertheless , the
principal of centralization has not , nor will not , for yet a little longer , have been eosupk-tfily substituted . It is true that the struggle now going on is not so much as formerly , the contention of Whig with Tory , lladieal with both , and ChartUt with all .. The contention , now , is reduced to the feud of class , — the contention now is between tlie democracy and aristocracy of each class , and it requires no great foresight to see , that the Catholic people , headed by iheir inferior clergy , will range themselves upon the side of Catholic democracy , as opposed to Catholic despotism .
We , therefore , heed but little the bombastic effusions of Drs . Cantwell and Synott ; we atlaeli much more importance to the letter of John Kcnyon , Roman Catholic curate , of IVmplederry , than to al ] the metaphysical moonshine coming from the Ho . man Catholic hierarchy of Ireland . We regret not having room fortliat letter this week , but we promise to publish it iu our next , as a specimen of the description of support which the Young Ireland partv is destined to receive from the young Irish
priests . If ever there was a ridiculous , an untimely , or a futile cause of quarrel , it is that upon which the Young Irelanders have been compelled to abandon the Association . It is all very well for the Li . berator to give notice of his intention to bring forward the question of Repeal next year , after he lias sold its support wilie government . It is all very line to deal in his moonshine to Lord Miltown , and Mr . Cecil Lawless , professing to show the impolicy of a union with the Whii ? s , while he has actually
sold Ireland to thai iaction . Weshouldliketoknowfrom whence Mr . O'Connell now hopes to derive his parliamentary support ? We should wish to know what the feelings of Irishmen would be upon reading the next division upon the Repeal question , when they discover the sale of their country in the tlumicss of their supporters . However , let Mr . O'Counell , the Whigs , and the Times , adjust their long standing differences as best they can , we have only to point to our present number to convince them and the world , that the attempt to govern the mind of country by such a coalition , is not only hopeless , but ridiculous .

Fancy yourselves in the jury box and , that you arc sworn to bring in a true verdict according to that evidence .

Daniel O'Connell , Esc , swftrn and examined : —' Page 143 . — Question . — " Are there any instances of Roman Catholic Priests being Magistrates ? 1 never hoard of any but one , the Rev . - $ lv . Ncy land ; a 'Catholic Priest , is a magistrate of the county of Kerry . ' He 13 a very wealthy man . He lias accumulated his savings in the funds . ^ ' ¦ ¦ ; Question . — 11 Should you , think it desirable on general grounds , ' that Roman Catholic priests should fiil that situation ? No , I should think it better they should not . Tlie Protestant clergy are of a higherclass and better educated than tho Catholic clergy , they are what one would call -a superior class , and therefore better qualified to discharge " tho duties of Magistrates . r V '

' -. po tli 3 _ fc in all the relations of tho state' they ; should ; be as secure of their loyalty ' as they are now of the Protestanf . cleray / I think , therefore , that the government , should have that reasonable bond which would bind the 'Catholic clergy to them in interest as well as " m duty . I shall 1 m very desirous myself to seethe eovernment / possess that influence , in order to bind , sis it were , the Catholic clergy , by a Golden Link to the Crown . ' ¦ ' -: .. .
Paso 159 . — Question . — You' have said that the Catholic clergy are lowly born and meanly brought up ? Yes , bo generally as to partake in some' measure of universality . They are chiefly the sons ot poor low Catholics- whose' first advancement in the soale of society is to majco a priest of his eldest son . If there were an equalization of political rights and a Btnte provision made for the Catholic clei-jjy , the sons of Catholic gentlemen would be educated for the priesthood .

' lam convinced it . would be Very easy to make an arrangement to exclude from ' all benefices Jn' Ireland any . person not a native born Irishman ; but sueli arrangement should not be made in the nature of an ex-post facto h \ r . Question . —With wham could such an arrangement
be marie ? With the Pope , as head of tliecngregabim- ( hi ) rbpa < randa fide at Rome , who ftas , in return for the nrfttoctioH he affords , the right of nominating the Irish Bishops . Now , in order to do away that right ., it would be necessary to have tlie sanction of the Pope for its extinction . I am quite convinced , that through the medium of the Catholic prelates in Ireland , tliere would be the utmost facility , In the event of emineioation , of having the rijjht of nomination immediately extinguished with us much rapidity ' . is'a messenger could arrive at Rome .

-.-TLAS FOR DISFRANCHISING THK POIITY 8 II 1 LLIXQ FBKEnOLDEB 8 . Page 163 — Question . — " Are you of opinion that any corrective could be applied to the evils which are understood to havo arisen from the system of Forty shilline Freeholds in Irelo . nd ? It is difficult for me to arswer that question . The system of Forty shilliiiB Freeholds in Ireland is essentially different from taat which it is in England ; there are , however , some forty shilling freeholders in Ireland , who have fee simple Estates : and with these I suppose nobody would meddle . Then with respect to tnosc who have derivative interacts , there , is an immense dual of perjury ; to set rid of which , it would be very advisable to raise the quaiiticatimis in the Counties of these subor dinate voters . But , I think it would not perlmps be wise to aritate w question of that kind without accompanving it with measures to allay
discontent . Question . ' —Are yon prepared to surest to the committee an arranerment aucli as thot you hftYeaUuded to ? No further than this , that if Emancipation were accompanied with the raising the qualification of derivative vijrhts in Counties to Five or Ten Pounds , I do not think it would excite any general dissatisfaction , or anything that the government need approhen ' l . " Question . —Do you think there wouUl be a great objection to raisinir the qualification to Twenty Pounds ? I d » . I think Twenty Pounds would be considered much too lii « li , and as excludiiip so immense a number of the occupiers , that it would create considerable discontent .
Question . —Do you think you would avoid tho evil of Pekjouy by " raising tho qualittcation to Ten Ponmls ? Yes , 1 do ; a man who had a ten pound freehold would be known among lm noighbftnfs ; he would have a character to preserve ; and I do ^ lot think there would be nearly the temptation to perjury theie is now . Question . —Do you think any voter , really Independent , jvmild be disqualified by * raising the vote to ten or even to twenty pounds ? I have no doubt that many voters , really independent , would be disqualified by raising it to twenty pounds . I think very lew by raisin ; . ' it to ten pounds .
Page 164 .- Question . —Do you think the raising the qualification to ten pounds wohIiI be productiveol great benefit to Ireland ? I think it would be productive of great benefit . * It is in my humble judgment uo small benefit if you get rid of any portion of perjury : and it is the commencement , of what wo want so nnich in Ireland , a substantial yeomanry . Question —Would the qualification of ton pounds be effectual for that purpose ? I should think it would , for this reason . Your Lordships will recollect that there must be a clear profit of ten pounds a year , and a freehold tenure , an interest in the land for life . Many landlords would be ready t « make a s-acrifice ot ten pounds a year , who would hesitate very much before thev would make a sacrifice of twenty pounds .
Question . — What do yon mean by sacrifice ? The sacrifice of so much income . The landlord giving the lijnsti would have to tnnlte the sacrifice ii lie constituted a freeholder of ten pounds a year . Question . —Are there many forty-shilling freeholders in the inanuf ' itcturing di .-tricts in the North of Ireland ? It is right that I should qualify nil ' my answers by saying that I iliil not attribute the crime of perjury to the Protestant or Presbyterian freeholders of the north , whom I have gene-rally understood to he of a better and more independent , class , Speaking J ' rom information I was in truth giving my : itis « era respecting the forty-shilling freeholders in the South , and West , and inLeinster . " There now , my poor expatriated fellow copntrvmen , this is but a mere outline of your betrayer ' s evidence , hut it is surely sufficient to satisfy the
most fastidious , tho blindest , and most stupid followers of him who calls himself the Liberator : that you , at all events , never had so base , so bloody and so brutal an enemy as the man who swore , in order to procure your banishment from the land of your , birth , that all the Catholic forty-shilling Freeholders in Uhsstcr i Minister and GomtuugUt-, were PkiwuitKKS . ]) o you believe his oath ?

1 PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW . The proceedings of the week offer only one noticeable feature , namely , the steady , untalkative and determined manner , in which , during these stifling and oppressively sultry dog-days , the " working members " ' of ,, the " Lower House" are dispalching , in one way or another , the progeny of measures spawned during the earlier period of the session .
The large majority by which the sugar resolution was carried , seem to have completely deterred the Protectionist party from any further opposition ; the subsequent stages have been passed through su 6 silentio , and , in this respect , the progress of Lord John ' s measure in July and August offers , a strong contrast to those of Sir Robert in March and April . The fierce and determined manner in which the ground was disputed , inch by inch then , ought , for the sake of » Consistency "—that favorite word of the Protectionists—to have induced a little more real and serious discussion of the next Free Trade measure . Tho fact that they have not offered that
opposition , would almost lead one to the conclusion that the policy of their party is more swayed by personal feeling than by sound and definite views ; that they have mistaken hatred of Peel for the love and understanding of a principle . The League conquered by sheer perseverance ; the upholders of the opposite principle , if they wish to make and keep an impression on the public mind , must imitate them in that respect . An occasional speech in the Houss , or a display of after dinner oratory , such as that at the Bentinck demonstration , at Lynn , tins week , is not enough j they must organize , speak , write , print anil agitate if they mean to show that thev are sincere .
This course would , we suspect , have the result upon the Protectionist party , which the agitation of the League had upon its leading members . They began on the narrow views even of their own question , aud certainly ended with much more comprehensive ones . However much they attempted to confine the discussion to the ground originally taken , namely , the justice or injustice of the Corn Laws , they could not and did not prevent the investigation from proceeding into other cognate and collateral ,
but deeper subjects , or from turning up questions which lay below the surface , on which they were combined io agitate . In this way , the League has sown seed , which will in due season yield A harvest its originators little dreamed of . Its example alone will be a perpetual encouvagement to all who seek to remove political or social grievances ; while the doctrines , directly and indirectly taught by its speakers and writers , leading as they do to further changes and revolutions in our social system , are neither dead nor dissolved , like their parent the League ,
The protection and welfare of native industry , is the ostensible object of the party , who yet , in opposition to the prevalent mania for Free Trade notions , assemble at dinners , and shotifc "No Surrender . " Well , the object is a laudable one , but how can it be best effected ? In what shape can " protection " be most effectively afforded ? Lord George and his friends must be prepared bye and bye with an answer to that question . Already the hollow , unsubstantial , and temporary nature of that measure , to obtain which seven years of agitation and hundreds of thousands of pounds were expended , are becoming visible . It will not , except for a very short period indeed ; realize the anticipations which its advocates
—we believe many of them sincerely , entertained . There are influences at work in the very structure of society , in the very nature of our system of produetion and exchange , whether at home or '" abroad , which tend inevitably to lower the many and exalt the few—to divide the population into two distinct hut unequal classes , the very rich and the very poor . This will not , and cannot , be endured . Human nature will rise up in rebellion against it . Surrounded on all hands by luxuries and enjoyments , the results of their toil and skill , the impoverished masses will not , cannot he made to understand the philosophy , or tho religion , which g ives these to thfe idler—to the industrious producer , povertv and misery .
The Free 1 raders have not settled the question , they have only stirred it . The Protectionists , if they be hold , honest , and sagacious , may settle' it . Let them take Richard Oastler inta their service . He , perhaps , better than any man living , knows the condition of the people , aud has siudied attentively the causes of thnt condition . He also possesses clearer views into futurity than most of his contemporaries . The ] Votftclit »> ists want a wise , experienced , thoughtful and courageous leader ; one who
will rally round mm Ihc affections ot' the people , awl lend the aristocracy in an honest , and for them the most beneficial manner ; never shrinking from the legitimate result of a principle .

TO THE IRISH RESIDENTS IN GREAT BRITAIN . Fellow Countrymen , —You will have « ecnt long before this letter reaches you , that tbe Uepeal bubble has burst , much sooner than even those who had no faith in the movement , nor in the leaders of it , expected . Strange doings , you see , have come to pass . The test of Catholic faith has been greatly altered of late in some parts of Ire-land . Want of faith in the " Liberator" has recently been pronounced to be infidelity uv two Catholic Bishops , one of
whom , I regret to sty , is a namesake of iny own . These sudden and startling changes , which have ccmc by surprise on most men , have changed , in some measure , the nature of my promised address to you . However , I shall endeavour to fulfil that promise next week . In the mean time , it is due to you , as well as to myself , to lay before you a few extracts from the evidence of Mr . O'Connell ) taken from the Report published !> y order of the House of CowmotiS . This I do for the purpose of proving , to tLe entire satisfaction of every man of sense and understanding , that Daniel O'Conuell is , and ever has been , the bitterest foe and most insidious enemy the
Working Classes ever had . Recent circumstances , which have developed themselves during the past and present weeks , expose completely the hollowuess of ihe repeal movement . Every one sees , now , that the end and object of the Repe :: I Leader was the restoration of Lord John Russell and Whiggery . Kcpcatevs wiil now lake , indeed they have already ( alien , places from the enomios of repeal . It is six years since J told you that the "Whigs would not be six months in power till "Justice to Ireland " would be substituted for repeal . You are not men , unless you ftel in your souls that you are duped and fll ' . i-Mled .
Whcii you rend the extracts from that evidence agahisl you , which laid the foundation of your ruin , yuur banishment from your native land , suhscvihe anA buy the Book itself . You will get it at Hansard ' s , London . Any bookselx-r will get it for you . The title of H is , " Minutes of Evidence Taken before a Select Committee of the House of
