YORK HERALD. viv Our Tlustrated Weekly. The Weekly Herald will be published at eight o'clock to-morrow morning. It is our intention to have it embellished with the view of the beautiful monument about to be erected jn Greenwood cemetry, over the grave of Thomas Freeborn, the brave and uni esteemed New York pilot, who lost his lif on duty, in the terrible gale of last February. {"Also, with the map showing the proper geogrs phical position of the United States, its adapted- ness as the great resting place between Europe and Africa on one side, and A: ina, &e , on the other, and the facilities it possesses for the construction of a great railroad, that will connect the most distant parts of the earth by steam. le copies, in wrappers, 64 cents each. Affairs of Ireland. It appears by our last advices from Ireland, that the outrageous treatment O’Brien has met with at the hands of the O’Connell party, has raised a storm that will require all O’Con- nell’s plausibility to allay. The injudicious course of the Star Chamber committee of the Aszocia- tion, in striving to crush the Nation newspaper, and expelling O’Brien and his colleagues, in com- | of the high character of the American Navy, and pliance with the dictation of O’Connell, and in order to gratify his ambitious views with regardto his son John, bas detracted more than half its strength from the Association; and it is now look- ed upon as a mere soulless body, galvanized into a sort of unnatural vitality by the speeches ot Steele, O’Connell, Broderick, and a few others who continue to batten on its funds. A universal wail is sent up from the national press of Iféland on the fall of O'Connell from the high position he has hitherto maintained in the affec- tions of the people. He is already looked upon asa man who has sold his country for the favor of the whig administration. He has openly declared that his motive in getting rid of the ‘ Young Ire- | day been the subject of envious attacks; but they can both afford to be generous, having ful- | filled to the uttermost all that has been required | of them in the service, arid seen many a hard cess. A near relative of his hasacceptedalucra- fought battle. {t requires such men before St. | Juan d’Ulloa. land” party,was, that he might be at greater liber- ly to treat with the whigs. He still talks of Re- peal, but he already insinuates donbts of its suc- tive offize under government. John O’Connell has slavishly licked the dust at the feet of the Lord Lieutenant, and on the occasion of a recent in- spection of the revenue cutters in the bay of Dub- lin by the Lord Lieutenant, actually went out of his way to pay that dignitary a tribute of his ho- mage. O'Connell himself is in open and undis- guised alliance with the ministry. Meantime held amass meeting at Kathkale, for the pur- pose of complimenting and expressing ‘heir con- fidence in that gentleman, and denouncing the injustice with which he has been treated. At this meeting O’Brien himself delivered a speech full of dignity; in the course, of which he defended himself from the attacks and misrepresentations of the O'Connell party, avoiding all comment, | Several Catholic | Sine clergymen attended, and spoke in warm terms of | however, on their conduct. praise of O’Brien. The Rev. Mr. Kenyon, a Catholic clergyman, who took active part in the repeal agitation, in- dignant with the conduct of the committee, has threatened to sue the association for the amount of his subscription, and that of his parishioners, to the repeal fund, which subscription the asso- | ciatioa refuses to refund. Mr. Kenyon is a man of very powerful mind and determined spirit, and he will undoubtedly carry his threat into effect. ‘The popularity of Smith O’Brien is a thing so palpable, and the indignation of the people so strong at the treatment he has received at the hands of O’Connell, that the latter does not venture to denounce O’Brien, but states that the only man belonging to the “ Young Ire- land” party whose absence he at all re- grets, is Smith O’Brien, and that if he could suffer any physical force man be in the association, it would be O’Brien. Whereas, it is well known that “ Young Ireland’’ was banished from Conciliation Hall, merely for the purpose of banishing O’Brien; as it was his popularity and not that of Mr. Meagher, Mr. Mitchell, or any other member of the “ Young ireland” party,"which was a thorn in O’Con- nell’s side, and stood in the way of John O'Connell. ‘The Morning Chronicle, the organ of the admin- astration, notwithstanding that it admits the ser- vices of O’Connell as a’ new ally of the whigs, severely censures the hypocritical and dishonor- able means he has adopted to get rid of his for- mer coadjutors; and the coarse, vulgar, and bru- tal treatment the gentlemen of the “ Young Ire- land” party have met with atthe hands of the committee and John O’Connell. O'Connell's adherents are accepting, and even petitioning for, place all over the country.— O’Brien’s friends are holding aloof, and spurn all Yavors from the enemies of their country, be the: whigs or tories. Meantime the failure of the potato crop is hover. ing, like a black and threatening storm, over the Jand. The indistinct fear of famine that has hith- | erto affrighted the imaginations of the people, is | converted into dreadful reality. The | “SOipalst of the'hation stands still under the shadow | now bei of this awful calamity, and O'Connell is taking advantage ef this panic to show the advantage of government patronage. He says that ten mil- lion pounds sterling must be expended to keep the people from starving; and he promises that if | they will only trust tohim and adopt his policy, he will procure that sum from the government, to be laid out in public works, for the relief of the | people. How farthis promise of aid, under the impending pressure of famine, will reconcile the Irish people to his coalition with the whigs, his conduct towards Smith O’Brien, time alone can tell.

The duty | assigned her, originally, was to look in at all the places where there was any American trade, and | give protection to our commerce. This duty, her | commander, Capt. Percival, has faithfully per- formed, and has brought the favorite of the na- tion home in the best possible condition. Nota | spar has been injured, though she has cracked on in all weathers ; and her timbers are said tobe | as sound as ever, In addition to the objects of her original cruise, she has performed effective duty on the W. and water. On her homeward passage, she gave convoy to numerous merchantmen, and kept her fleet together in masterly style, being able to out- sail any ship in her company, and to overtake all suspieious vessels in her way. The time of her crew expired several months since, and they have all returned in good health, and are now in the course of being paid off at the Boston Navy Yard. The discipline enforced by her gallant comman- der and officers has been in every respect worthy we hail her return with the utmost pleasure. There will be no rest for this old heroic ship, that has borne such a “ charmed life,” amidst all the vicissitudes of tempest and battle. She will, it is said, be immediately sent to take part in the reduction of St. Juan d@’Ulloa, so that the Mexicans who saw this wonderful ship at Mazatlan on the Pacific a lew months ago, will shortly find her bang- ing away on the Atlantic side. ‘‘ Mad Jack,” her commander, is one of the most thorough going a2EZOrP0Ld D3 MAT THE “LION PIANIST,’ : AS HE APPEARED AFTER HI EIGHTH GRAND GONCERT, IN NEW ORLE sailors in our navy, standing, in that respect, side by side with Captain Gregory.
