It is clearly a great error to find fault with a medicine merely because it is a patent one ; and more especially 6 ince its use has contributed so largely to the public health .

Mr . Cockbura , accompanied by a few friends , entered the hall , and was cheered enthusiastically ; as soon as the ch- ^ erinf had snbsided , 2 ir .

a wrong channel , the people should therefere , as far as they are able , become the instructors of their own children ; and to accomplish which I will now state my opinions on domestic education . I have before Btatc-d that coercion is bow generally used , instead of which I would substitute affection , and by blending education with amusement , make it both agreeable and instructive . Thus the children will receive the rudiments ef education . It would grow with him , and thus a thirst for knowledge would ba created , which might eventually enable the perple to comprehend the cause of , and overthrew tyranny . I have advised several families to adopt the following simple manner , which , wherever it has been carried out , has been more successful than my mo&t sanguine anticipations . Get
the whole of the twenty-six letters of the alphabet printed on an equal number of large cardB , hanging them around the house in common with other artioles of household furniture , ami constantly exposed to the child ' s view . Let me ask , how long do your children require to learn the names of table , chair , bed , stool , &c ? Could they not learn the . difference between the character of the letters thus placed with the same facility as they -would the articles of furniture and receive the first part of their edncation in this way imperceptably , and without being tasked ? Could they not then be taught to express many of their little wants by a combination of thoBeletters ( forming words ) , and thus education would Bteal involuntarily upon the youthful mind , and make it a pleasure instead of a pain ? Mr .
C . then impressed upon hia audknee the propriety of parents attempting domestic education , and after entering at great length into the modes generally adopted in t « ehicg arithmetic , geography , and the minor branches of erincation , which he tried to Bimplify to suit the capacity of children in tbeir earliest years , concluded by exhorting them to unite for the purpose of procuring those rights to which they were entitled by birth as Britons . By so doiD ? , th © powers that be ( which are not not of God ) cmld no longor rob them of their birthrights . Tney tbemselves are ashamed of their actions ; they dunst not test their deed * of darkness , having plainly shown by their conduct at the presentation cf the National Petition , that thoy have not a sufficipney of faith in their conduct to bring it ia contacs with the truth and justice of the people ' s claims .

shonld feel it his bounden duty to make public restitution to them before he would boast of having availed himself of the beneEt of a jubilee —( hear , hear . ) Of what me was thia boast ? what good did it do ? Surely men of true piety shrunk for very shame when they read it . For his part he could not help thinking of the Pharisee and the Publican , when he read it in the newspapers . The Lord Mayor has s , iid over and over a « ain , that our Association is unlawful , aud when the Whiga ( his friends ) were iu power he was not ashamed to point cut the Association and its moat active members to the tender mercies of the Whig Attorney General—( bear , heaT ) . At another time he describfd us as a set of Orangemen , and again as Ribbontnen , and thus
creating pvf judice against U 3 upon all Bides . Well , here we are , after all , iuarty and merry , our numbers increasing every day ; the people learning who and what we are . and what our views , objects , and institutions are , which shows that ths hand of Divine Providence is always with those who have truth and justice on their side ; and the name and proceedings of the Irish Universal Suffrage Association and its services to tho country will ba recorded in history , and revered by the people , when the real character of the betrayer and destroyer of the forty shilling freeholders , and the supporter of the base , bloody , and brutal authors of the Coercion Act , and the Poor . Laws Amendment Act , will be rememberfid only to be abhorred and detested .
Mr . O Higgiks said he had the pleasure of proposing two friends of his for admission , Messrs . Ford and Leeson . And as he saw several strangers in the room he would take that opportunity of explaining the objects , views , and intentions of the association —( hear , hear ) . Bsfots he would do so he begged leave to state , for the Eatihfaction of the society , that during his absence for the last fortninht , he had visited several parts of the country where Chartism was as well understood as it was in that roomhear , hearj—while iu other places prejudice prevailed against it to such an extent , that , bad as the times we , he verily believed that people would have paid tixpence to sea what sort of an animal a Chartiat was —( bear , hear % It is , no floubt , in the recollection of most of
those pressnt , that Mr . O'Connell had some time ago eiven a very Iud' . crou 3 description of tue colour of a Chartist's face , and of the length of bis ears , and the danger of coining in contact with him . The Repeal Wardens , or more properly speaking the collectors of money , under tho pretence of applying it to Repeal the Union , but for the real purpose of maintaining a staff of hungry place-hunters at the Corn Exchange , who have no visible or known mode of living than that of profe ? sin * patriotism for a farthing a week , receive their weekly instructions from " dear Ray" to ba on their guard lest Chartism should rear its hideous head within the precincts of their respective jurisdictions . S » much had been said and sung against tho Irish Universal Suffrage Association , and a ; ainst its
president more especially , that when it became known in a certain town , not quite fifty miles from Dublin , that be ( Mr . O"Higgius ) was at the hotel there , several persons solicit ' .-d it as a special favcur to be permitted to Eee what sort < . f an animal he ( Mr . O'Hu ^ ins ) was . ( Laughter . ) Finding that he waa not ' half , so black or so ugly , as ha was painted ; they ventured to ask him 8- ¦ ¦ me questions about the Association ; and , on bearing the principles explained , and reading that admirable little publication , " What is a Chartist ?" they very naturally askt-d him why it was Mr . O'ConneJl was so much opposed to that which appeared to them to be so good ? To this qustion he ( Mr , O'Higgins ) could give no other answer than this , that when the Whigs were ia power , Mr . O Gounull lost
bis election for the city of Dahlin , because he would not givo a pledge in writing , "that be would support no administration but one that would give its nfflt-hl advocacy to Universal Suffrage , Vote by Ballot , Annual Parliaments , Equ . il Electoral Districts , tha abolition of tho Properly Qualification-, and the ti ^ ht of the electors to pay thvir npresentives . " He ref wed to give this pledge , and lost Dublin by tho refusal . Saveral asked why he wouM refuse that ? " was . it not the real thing ? Sure every honest iiun must be for that" He rtfustd it , because the Whiss , who gave good fat places to his sons-in-lnw , and his sou and his nephews were against it ; aud he -couM not . ' "well- 'go against those who had doae £ 0 much fur him and his . At this stage of the conversation , a R-neal Warden of the name of Smith cuse forward , and said it was all false . But although he was a town : n : iu , truth is
so powerful that hia own neighbours turned . upon him , and told him he vrsa a decdver aud a cheat , that be promised tho Repeal last year , if they would but pay a shilling each . They pai'l tbe money ; but tho Repeal ia not a bit further forward . " To get the right to vote first is the r . al thing—we are all for that ; and with the blowing of God , wo will join y < u . " Tho next day , seme of the rules and objects of our association were taken to the parish priest , who at o :: c 3 and unhesitatingly declared his approval of them—ihfaar , hear , and great chtcrirg . ) Mr . O'Higgins » h ^ n entered upo n an expLuiatioa of the principle of Chartism , and the great tnd last benefits which tho adoption of thoso principles wc-uld cotfsi' upon tho wholo empire , but particular ? upon Iruian .
