Ireland, Dosuin, August 8d, 1847. Epiron or tug New Yoru Henatp :— I delgyed my letter for the purpose of giving you the latest intelligence by this day's post. Yesterday, at 4 o'clock, P. M., the steamer bearing the remains of Danie) O’Connel was soenentering the Dublin harbor; as she came up the river, the quays on both sides, as well every steamer and boat, large and small, were filled with dense crowds, drawn by & variety of feelingsand pe all anxious to catch a the tem; reposin; place of the departed chief. A pace ed chapel haa ou the deck of the Duchwas of Kent steamer, hung with draperies of mourni d lighted up with ta- with erimson cloth in the following in- 0 Daniel O’Connell, Ireland's Liberator. while on his journey to the seat of the Apostles, slept in the Lord at Genoa, on the§l6th May, in the year 1847. He lived seventy-one years, nine months and nine days. May he rest in peace.”” On arriving at tho appointed place thecofin was removed and placed on a hearse drawn by six horses, and attended by the members of his family, and followed by persons bearing wands adorned by white and black ribands. The heurse proceeded to Marlborough Street Chapel, where the coflin was finally deposited on a catafalque prepared for the purpose, where the remains liein state until Thursday, the da: appointed for the interment. Of the procession whit is them expected to take piace, @ fullaccountin my next. On yesterday the nomination of the members for the city of Dubiin commenced Four were named,the sitting members, Grogan and Gregory. Rey. Trebam Gregg proposed Mr. Ferrand, and Mr John Reynolds stood for- ward as the candidate on the Repeal interest. ‘The pro- per recognizances regarding expenses bave not yet been erfected ; subscriptions are being called in to support ir. Reynolds, but it is doubtful whether he will come to the poli—to-morrow, Wedncedanipeing he day appoint- ed for the purpose. ‘Mr. John O'Connell, in an address to the people regarding the election, in ‘a single para- graph writes thus :—“ ‘Lhe ashes of him who loved you inore than his own life, of him whom in your warm heartedness you styled your Liberator, D. O’Connell— his ashes, ere the momont of trial and triumph has come to one among you, will be here, bearing mute and solemn witness to you and (with heaven’s blessing) to your suo- cess.”” Mr. Reynolds.in his speech from the hustings yes- terday, socused the Freeman’s Journal of baviug thrown cold water on his claims. An article in this morning’s Freeman, alluding to this charge, ways" that Mr. Rey- nolds has so managed tue preparations for this election, that on his claims the several Liberal papers (mention- ing them) are silent, and promises aiter the issue of the election is known, to give an explanation for its conduct. We shall, for the present, imitate its silence, and merely Give facts. Mr, Smith O’Brien bas positively declined standing for Limerick At a meeting of the election club in that city, some over-ardent patriot used in ailusion to him tbe ex- prergion of “ O’Counell's murderer’’—this being unre- proved or corrected by the chairman, led to his with- drawal. Mr, M. J. Blake aud O’Flaberty are returned without a contest for Galway, the Solicitor-General. ir Monaghan, not having come to the poll. Mr. Fagan and | McCarthy are expected to be returned for Cork ; Mr. O'Callaghan, one of the pee members, will probably be ousted ; great heat and excitement prevail among the supporters of the respective candidates, ‘The College electiou is at this moment going on, There are four virtual candidates—shaw and Hamilton, the sitting members, and Napier and MoCullogh ; the con- Lest is believed to liv between Napier aud Shaw—Ilamil- ton keeping his place, Shaw will probably retain his, Na- pier having been rather late in the field. There was no meeting held in Conciliation Hall on yesterday in consequence of the arrival of the Liberator’s remains on Sundsy, and the previous Friduy’s meeting had been heid thers for the purpose of arranging matters and collecting funds for the election, ‘The Irish Contederation held # most numerously at- tended meeting on ‘Thursday last, in the Music Hall, Smith O'Brien read a piece, called the * Recruiting Song of the Jrish Brigade,” written by Maurice O'Conm .

We cannot, therefore, calculate on its disappearance, Scarcity, until the harvest is gathered in, stili prevails, though not unto death. Advices are still arriving of new proofs of American ‘ew York, hay reached Limerick with a cargo of breadstutfs for the distressed iris, consigned to the Central Relief Comittee, Dub- lin, “Phe Kellance, laden with 6,000 barrels of bread- stuffs, is now lyiog at Haulbowline.

Sir Wiliia:m expressed his approbation of the objects of the soctety, and his determination to assist in advancing ite views For our part, we would prefer that the socisty would work and look for help at home, rather than in the Home Office abroad. . ‘The British aud North American Royal Mail steamer Caledonia arrived in the Mersey on Wednesday. from Boston and Haliiax, after a voyage of twelve days from the former place. From all parts of the continent accounts have been received of the fail of prices, owing to the favorable appearunoe and expected abundance of the approaching harvest. ‘The Limerick Reporter states there were fifty car loads of new potatoes at market on Saturday, and sold at 1s. to 1s, 2d. per measure of 201bs The creps are being reaped in some parts of the country. ‘There was a second representation, by command. in our theatre on Saturday night.

The house was densely crowded, and it is only necessary to say that Mr. and Mrs. Kean performed again the principal characters of Dou Felix and Volante, in the comedy of “The Wonder.” They snd the lessee, Mr, Caleraft, were called for at the con- clusion of the performance, and were greeted with a shower of bouquets, It le supposed the theatre will again open in Uctober, under more favorable auspices. —_———-——__—_ France, Pans, July 80, 1847, Enitox or tux New Youu Hematv,— As I mentioned to youin my last letter, [ ooutinue to write to you by the new Havre line of steamers, which ure regulated with such perverse ingenuity, as to add nothing to the means of correspondence with the United States.

That personage was brought by reflection and the influence of his family and friends to amore resigned state of mind. and has since shown no disposition to repeat the attempt. The sentence of a most severe and exemplary. He is to pay, & fine amounting in the whole to forty thou- sand dollars, to be civilly led, that is, rendered in- capable of ever holding any office under the state, or of practising Sny profession, and finally to be imprisoned for three years. As to his accomplices, or to speak more eerera ys acne wae nth hiss the concern, they are se- jousand dollars, and civilly degraded. M. Pellagra, who had absconded when I inst wrote, Te turned and surrendered himself, and underwent the same sentence as the others. Being, however, very wealthy, he regards the fino as nothing. and accordingly imposing on himself a work of au tion, he gave, besides the fine, an equal sum to the Prefect of Pelice to be applied to’ the liberation of prisoners tor debt of the working classes, ‘This prosecution has given rise to much soundal, and it is openly affirmed, that if equal justice were dealt out, M. Teste weuld not be the only Mintater of State locked up in the conciergerie, tt pee understood that he will be removed to the for of Ham, where Louis Napoleon was confined. It will be remembered that M. Teste was formerly a member of the present cabinet. It is now sald that his practices were suspected by his colleagues, and expo- sure was feated; he was accordingly induced to leave the cabinet, and was provided"for by a judgeship in the Court of Cassation. the highest tribunal in the realm. Ho was also created @ peer of France and grand offloer of the Legion of Honor. The shook produced by his condemnation, bas had such an effect on him, that congestion of the brain has supervenud, and t fears for his lite are entertained by his family and friends. The weather in France has been magnificent for the last two weeks. Heat and rain have been alternated in the most favorable manner, and overy thing at present promises a harvest considerably more productive than the average of seasons The coarser grains, rye and berley, are already cut, and in a great degree gathered in. The wheat, which bas the most promising appear- ance, will be reaped within the next fortnight in the north and centre of France, It is already cut in the south. The vintage is expected to be one of the finest which has occurred for many years—nothing can ex- oved the luxurlance ef the fruit which now weighs down the vines. The Chambers have‘ eome to a virtual close, nothing now remaining to be done except matters cfform. The actual adjournment will not, however, take place until the 11th of August. They will not meet again until January, unless some extraordinary and unexpected event should call them together. Last week placards were posted up in certain quarters of Paris, to the following effect:—On demande des hommes pour balayer une cour ¢ tayer deuse Cham- bres. (Wanted—Men to sweep a court and to clean two Chambers.) The police tore them dewn, and maltreated ti ose who were found reading them. The celebration of the aanive: of the revolution of 1880, has just passed off here with the usual ceremo- nies, masses for the slain, boats decerated with flags on the river, public spectacles in the Champs Elysses, may- poles, dances, illuminations, fireworks, addresses at the Tuileries, &c., kc, It 1s a day always held in dread by the Queen and her family, being one on which 80 many attempts have been made to assassinate the King. How- ever, ull went off quietly on the present occasion. Paris is unusual: dull, Several of the theatr cluding the grand opera, are olcsed. The railways, whioh it was supposed would augment the number of foreign visiters, have had the opposite effect, for the facilities they offer have induced people to go to places much more distant, and hitherto inaccessible to all but the most wealthy. Switzeriand, Germany,and Itwy now eee with travellers, while Paris is compuratively de- sert The following extract froin the leading organ of the French ministry (the Juurnal des Déhats) in reference tothe line of transatlantic steamers, will show your readers with what interest the communication with New York is regarded here :— “Havre has at length obtained a transatlantic steam service which, in virtue of a law recently voted by the Chambers, will exteblish direct relations between our first port in thesoo an and that of New York. It will not be without utility to say some words on the commercial relations now existing between these Lwo great mari- time oities, hitherto separated by 9 voyage of four or ive weeks, and which steam is about to place at twelve or thirteen days from each other. No people stood ingreat- er need than our own, of such rapidity of intercourse— our productions are of that nature,being objects of fash- ion and taste, variable, fugitive and mobile, which re- quire to be brought to’ murket at a precise time, and which we must, Do matter at what price, bring, the first, to the foreign mart. Moreover, by a circumstance, habitually disadvantageous when concerning maritime transports, but which we are to consider as a fortunaie compensation, the articles of our fubric, weighing litue, of small buik, are better adapted than any other to steam navigation, where the coals and machinery take Up & great portion of the vessels, Shouid it be inquired what we export annually to the United States, in French articles, we an3swer,that it doos not amount to leas than 100 millions of francs, 67 of which are tn tissues, for the most part light and fine; the remainder, (wines except- ed) consists of articies which take up little room, such 4g silks, haberdashery. china, stationery, perfumery, millinery, gloves.and other productions of a similar kind. Such articles do not form a heaty freight. Thus, when the returas from the United States represented, in 1845, about 160,000 tons, our exporta did not amount to more than 94,000, and even then were inéluded a pretty considerable quantity of articles net belonging to our own exportation. To be able to judge of the important part that New York acts in the general trade of the Union, it Is neces- sary to know, that more than two-thirds of it is effected at this port—about 40 millions upon 1 200 or 1,300. By the same reason almost ull our commercial transactions with the United Stutes are done at New York, and most all between this port to La Havre. Upon 315 aml- lions, produced in 1815, by our general exchanges with the United Stutes, 210 at least, belong to the operations of those two great harbors. Ax to their mari- time movement, it comprised 209 ships, freighted aad nearly 106,000 tons—that is to say, about one-third of our general intercourse with all the harbors of the Union. Independently of its own trade with New York, Mavre vither reovives, or sends out, considerable transit for this port. It edites to Switzer: Germauy, throa,h France, the cottons of Americ: receives from these countries sundry articies of their manufacture, to be freighted at Havre, in American vessels, New York is, then, the first commercial ally of Havre, which counts, in the Atlantic, but one rival worthy to be set In opposition with it; butindeed avery powerful one—Liverpool, the first entrepdt of Europe for cottons, and for the other principwl productions of the American Union. No town has increased more rapidly than New York. ‘The population, which in 1800 did not exceed 60,000 souls, now amounts to 360,000; having thus increased nix fold in less than halfa century. Its foreign trade has triphdsince 1820. Its maritime effective, which at the same time amounted only to 75,000 tons, now reaches 260,000. Its fishing and coasting navy has increased in'e still greater proportion, [ts maritime movement, which, in 1520, gavo, for foreign trade, « transport of 300,000 tons, now gives 1,200,000, And, in fact, New York is most adwirably situated, both for maritime transactions, and internal trade. It is the intermediate, thw principal mart of trade between Europe and the other American ports; or rather, the two Americas themaelves—a magnificent bay, with « safe harbor. re- ceives the heaviest laden vessela, which the river }iud- enables to advance some distance into the iniand country. This vast course of water facilitates a com- munication, by the canals, between New York and the Norvhern lakes, with the St. Lawrence. Jn this manner, New York is the key to the immense internal trade of the Union, The ameliorations this queen oi the Ame- rican coast has realised since the last fifteen or twenty years, are to be principally attributed t@ the vast orea- lion of public works in the State, or, more properly speaking, throughout the whole federation—to the nu- merous railways and canals with which this country bas eariched her soil; aud, above all, to the opening of the Erie Canal-the most admirable thing of this kind. his canal, 569 kilometers in extent, pute New York in direct communication with many other commercial inland towns of the Union. It is by this canal the west conveys to New York the productions of its fields and forests, In 1845, it brought to this harbor 498,000 tons, by coh tenia in wood, cern, flour, salt pro- visions, ca wathers and furs, potash, iron and lead, manufactured articles, &e., 0 value of two hundred mil: Hons. The mplain Canal brought to New Zork 250,000 tons. None of the states ot the Union possess more railways than that o: New York. It has no lees than twenty: for fifteen of which the following facts Were stated in the Inst reports :— L'otal extent, 1.027 kilo- moters, they had cost about one huadred and five mil. lion of francs; required about four millions yoarly to keep them in & proper state of repair, and produced an average reovipt of about thirteen willions. In short, no country presents an aspect of such activity and anima- tion, as that which the European and Indian trad keep up io this port, joined to the continual arrival of Euro- pean emigrants, the arriving of the greac whale fis! orien, & coasting trade which is in constant activity, on up: wards of 400 leagues of coast, and the astonishing ac- tivity of the laborious hive, which is calied American society. Such ts the commoreial port with which were are go- ing to form more multiplied communications with Havre, Rouen, Parie, Lyons, and every inland town which sends its productions to the American mart, our best and most precious dehouche. Steam navigation, in this point of view, will add to the advantages Havre already enjoys, those which Liverpool has been possessed of for a con- siderable time.” We bave just learned of the arrival of the Caledonia at Liverpool.

An Ege ot persons was expected from all parts a of e pay tates, and large popular assem wot of course be collected. Shortly before is meee ob- tained ofroulation and oredit, (and in fact were well founded) to the effect, that the reactionary party, inclu- ding almost all the cardinals, and the agents of Austria, had secretly resolved to bring about some popular dis: turbances, 80 as to afford a pretext to Austria to inter- fore by armed force, in the legations, to repress such movements. As the 17th approached, these reports gained consistency, and on the 15th it was suddenly an- nounced, that an atroclous conspiracy had been dotect- ed, the object of which, was nothing less than « repro- duction of the Sicilian Vespers and a massacre of the people. The celebration of the 17th was the time ap- pointed for tho execution of this plot. Hired agents of Austria were to be dispersed among the crowd, where the military should be drawn up to preserve order These agents were, somo to feign an assault on the troops, while others were to ory out that the populace were go- ing to assassinate the soldiers. The soldiers were then to be commanded by the officers, (many of whom were in the plot,) to charge upon the people, and the slaugh- ter was to commence, A body of mulefactors, liberated from the jails by the conspirators, were to be armed with polgnards, and to assist in the massacre. All this was discovered by 4 mun of the people called Ciceronachia,who has lately rendered himaeifoviebrated. On the circumstances being made known, a peti- tion was drawn up and signed by all the leaders of the liberal party, including a great number of the Roman nobility, praying the Pope to postpone the cele- bration of the proposed festival; which was immediate- ly done. Meanwhile the alarm spreading and increas- ing, and no one feeling his life for a moment seoure, it was decided to call out the national guard. This body however, was not yet equipped, although it had been, to &® certain extent organized. ‘The government, however, immediately ordered ite members to be supplied with arms and ammunition, and instantly, as if by enchant- ment, body of ten thousand armed men appeared in the Couso, in their citizen's dress, over which they wore thelr belts and cartouch boxes. They were headed by the Roman princes, and offcered by the most respected citisens and patroles were established throughout the city. ‘The lower spartments of the palaces of the Bo- man nobles were given up for guard rooms, in the midst of this confusien Cardinal Ferretti, the new secretary of State. arrived, a well known liberal, whom the pope hus lately chosen to replace Cardinal Gizzi His eminence was met at the guves by the peo- Ble, who took the horses from, his carriage, and drew him amidst acclumations of enthusiasm to his palace. His firat act displayed the firmness and spirit with which he is likely to be animated. It was to dismiss the Abbe Graseelzni, the Governor of Rome, whose retrograde principies were well known, and who was more than sus- pected of being a party to ‘the alleged reactionary piot.

Benne, 25th July, 1847 Evirox or tax New Youn Henauy :— Since the date of my last letter events have progressed in Switzerland, and the dissensions by which the confe- | 4Y”— deration is distracted have come very nearly to a crisis. The Diet, which is to the Cantons exactly what Cun- gress i to the States, bas assembled.and entered serious- | ly on the discussion of the vital question of the Sunder- ing of our covfederacy and yours, You leave consider delegates are peut to the Diet with specific instructions how they are to yote on each question, whion ft isknown | will be brought under discussion; and if any questions | arise on which they have not received such instructions then they are obliged to refer to the Cantonal authori- | tea for public and xpecitie directions. Thus our dele gates are merely the mouth pieces. by which the several Cantons express their votes. ‘The first important question which came before the Diet was, whether or not the seven Catholic Cantons which have leagued together to support measures which | are opposed by the other fifteen Cantons, should be al- lowed to forms separate and independent league, which, | in fact, they bave done-—this little league within the | great league being called the Sunderbund. This would be just a8 if your slave States, having interests indepen- | dent of the others, should form a little Union, having ita own Congress, its own army, and its own laws, indo- pendent of, and even in opposition to, the great Con- gress and Legislature at Washington. ‘This question | being brought to the vote, a majority of thirteen Can- tons voted for the immediate dissolution of the sunder- band. On this the deputies of the Cantons of the Sun- derbund presented @ formal protest against the resolu- tion of the Diet, ja which it was intimated that the Cantona of the Sunderbund would not obey the decision. Upon this the Diet passed another resolution deciaring that all military employés of the federal government who should enter the service of the Sunderbund, should be iunmne diately cashivred, and considered to be in a state of insurrection or mutiny. ‘This resolution,whioh waa of a more practical character than the first, was, however, a necessary corollary to it. At the time | am writing this is the atate of things. ‘There is @ pause to nee what will really ensue, Mean- while, the seven Cantons of the league are making ac- tive preparations for resistance to any manifestation of evinced force.
