Suppose, said he, Mr. Meagher asserted at the meeting that the Unioncovld be repealed by arms only; he would feel it to be hin duty to counteract that opinion, and an unpleasant discussion would arise. Mr. Meagher was present. and he said that he never would avail hi #:1f of is porition to urge his particular opiuioas; ow side the doors of the lengue he would advocate those views, Upon tlve other hand, he required Mr. O?Con- nel to abstain from animadverting upon any such expression of opinion, if made onteide the doors of their general place of meeting. Mr. O'Connell intima- ted that he would do so. At a subsequent meeting, Mr. O'Connell said, that on reconsidering that agreement. he could not abide by it. (Groans) Mir. O'Connell suid, he viewed witt great apprehension « movement going on through the country to arm the people, which would lead to cala- mitous results; and he would feel bound, as a public man, to get up in his place. and denounce such 4 pro- ceeding. Members of the Repeal Association strong- | ly protested against Mr. O'Connell's doing 80, and said that he was bound by bis previous agreement. It hap- | pened singularly, that he only 4pok his part, he sald— | and bo said, then, that if he, as ® member of the Irish | league, considered that any movement of the Irish | league would lead to a calamitous result, he would be | abandoning his duty if he did not denounce it; but, he added, that if he got up to object to opinions advo- cated outside the doors of the Irish league, they should be at liberty, temperately, to give their reasons for sup- porting and advising that movement. Mr. O’Conneil consented to this; but at the meeting of the confer- ence held on the previous night, Mr. O’Connell brought forward a series of resolutions, which amount- ed in substance, if not in words, to the old poace rerolutions of Conciliation Hall; and he stated that he could not be a member of any association which would not have those resolutions in their books, and | if every member were not obliged to pled:e himself to those principles. Of course, when he made that defined announcement, they stated that all understanding bo- tween Mr. O'Connell and the Confederation was at an end. With reepect to this union, Mr, O'Connell as- | signed as a cause for his entertaining these opinions, letter of Mr. O’Brien. After some further remarks, tering into the union they desired because Mr. John | O’Connell shrank from it, they were stultified before | the whole world, Rev, Father O’Mally then addressed the meeting at some length, when Mr. Dillon again came forward and said that as one of Mr. O’Connell’s | objections to the league had arisen from the constrac- | tion which he raid had been put on its fundamental rules by the Nation newspaper, and by Mr. Smith | O’Brien’s letter, in order that there should be no | ground of objection on that seore, they had, at the | conference last night, passed the following resolution : “Resolved, That we disclaim the notion that the members of either of the existing repeal bodies are ilty of an abandonment of principles in entering | into the coalition, as based on the proposed principles | of the Irish Jeaguo ; and further, that no journal or in- |. dividual fs authorised to interpret the principles ar to define the policy of the league "4 Mr. M‘Gee then read an address to the members of the Confederation, which gave a history of the body and its proceedings, and concluded with the following parrage :— “Having fulfilled the duty of sincere advocates of our principles, we are now called on by the national | voice to practise in our own persons one of the lessons we have long taught—union amongst Irishmen, We are called upop to dissolve the Confederation for the sake of union. and to pass into a new one, in which we are to set forth hand in hand with those we reluctantly parted from two years ago. Having proved that the principles of the new league are in no respect incom- patible with ours, and that the basis of the fature movement shail be the club system extended, and :per- fected, we have resolved to enter on it earnestly and | cordially, without prejudice, grudge or concealment, | We propose to give up to-night that confederation with whose existence our own has been identified, in whose honor our honor was included, and to whose | service since the formation we have devoted the better | part of our time, apd all our abilities. “In doing so we lieve we serve Ireland, and take the best means to | bring this struggle to a successful issue, which is at once the reason and reward of the step we take, “And now we exhort all cenfederates in Ireland, Great Britain or elsewhere, to lay down as freely as we do this night, every vestige of unfriendly feeling | towards their brother nationalists, and to unite with | them and with us in this new combination, whose sole purpore and policy is to find the best and speediest way to Irish independence, and to lead the people thither.” : ‘The address having been seconded and adopted, Mr. O'Gorman, jun., read an address from America to the confederates, written by Mr. Tyler. Mr. 0°G. recom- mended that the answer to the address should emanat from a Parliament in Colle; -green, and that without | delay. Mr. Duffy entered into the details of the con- | ference to the putting of the peace resolutions of Mr, O'Connell, for which not a single gentleman voted but | Mr. Thomas Askins, and that thereupon Mr. O’Connell said that as the country had decided against him, he would retire into private life for the present. (Here There were loud cheers and waving of hats and hand. kerchiefs, which were prolonged for several minutes.) He desired that at the next meeting of the Repeal As- | sociation Mr, Galway should propose its adjournment | sine die, and that the league should take its place. | Mr. Galway and some other gentlemen stated, how. | ever, that they never would have yentured to that conference, and agreed to dissolve the asrociation, if Mr. O’Connell had not gone step by step with them in the proceedings, and that they would not take on themeelves the responsibility of dissolving it, as Mr. O’Connell was alone competent to do s0; and they demanded that he should either go on with the asso- ciation as usual, or dissolve it himeclf, and assist in carrying out the league. He (Mr. Duffy) did not be- lieve, however, that this impediment would last. ‘The repeal committee would come to some definite conciu- sion, and the Irish league would meet on that day | week, or on some early day. Mr. Duffy concluded by saying that it appeared to the council that their course was clear before them ; it was to perform their part of | the arrangement by adjourning the Confederation, and | he put a resolution ‘accordingly, appointing mem- | bers to act as council until the Irish league will be completed.

Naples. The Semaphore of Marseilles, of the 19th, publishes a correspondence from Naples of tie 13th and 14th, stating that the division under General Nunziante, having landed at Pizzo, had been beat at Monteeone, where an ambuseade had been laid.

With ® continuance of highly auspicious weather, the growing crops of grain have every whore improved in appearance; still the reports from the agricultural districts are not of so fayorrble a character as could be desired. Wheat is said to be thin on the ground in many localities, which has no doubt been caused by the inceseant rain during the spring months; it has also, it is reported, in some places, been a good deal beaten down by the heavy rains which fell about the 12th and 18th inst.; but to the latter circumstance we are not inclined to attach much importance, as the crop is not as yet in a sufficiently advanced state to receive injury from a partial lodgment; it would, however, appear that farmers do not form a very high estimate of the proba- ble yield; at least, the scanty manner in which they bring forward supplies would lead to that conclusion. That they have good stocks on hand is generally nc- knowledged; still they seem by no means anxious to realize, and the certainty of free trade early in the en- suing year, seems to exercise less influence than might be expected. How far the withholding supplies may prove Fight, will depend on circumstances, of which, at present, little can be known, Tho manner in which our own crop may be secured, the extent of future sup- plies from abroad, and last, though not least, the result of the potato erop, will al and each have their influ- ence. With the exception of afew vague rumors, wo have hitherto heard nothing to lead to the belief that the disease from which potatoes have suffered #0 exten- sively the last few yours, has yet shown itfelf; indeed, nearly all the accounts in regard to the appearance of the plant are highly favorable; it must, however, borne in mind that the symptoms of the disorder have not in former instances manifested themselves until towards the end of June, The Lent-sown crops of corn and pulse, though much improved since the close of May, do not promise to produce so well as in mode- ralely good seasons; and on the whole, the opinion now prevalant, that’ prices of food will net for some time be lower, appears to be founded on reasonable grounds, The wheat trade has, since our last, assumed a firmer tone, more particularly at those markets held towards the close of the week; at the eame time there has not heen much dolng, buyers having contonted thgmaselvos with purchasing only so much as they haye requi Tor immediate wants, geben At Liverpool, on Tuesday, business was not lively, and sellers wore on that occasion unalle to obtain higher prices than the preceding week; subsequently. however, the demand increased, and on Friday wheat was quoted 2d. per 70 Ibs. dearer, Indian corn, which had been temporarily neglected, was in ronewed re- quest, several purchasers of that article having appeat- ed from Ireland : for fine heavy Galats as much as 878. per 4s01ba. was paid, At Hull and Leeds, on Tuesday, there was not much doing in wheat; but the supplies’ being small at both there places, holders endeavored to of advance.

On Wednesday the amount of business done was larger than is usualiy the case in the middle of the week, though there was less anxicty to realize, needy buyers had consequently to pay full terms. Subse- quently an endeavor was made to establish an advance; and though this met with only partial success, the turn was certainly, on the whole, against the purchas- er on Friday. ‘The general average for the Kingdom, published on Thursday (47 8d), shows a slight fall, as com with the return for the preceeding week. The stand which prices have lately made, may, however, have the effect of preventing the aggregate reaching below 488, It is, therefore, doubtful whether the duty will rise to the maximum point; but, whether this takes place or not, some of the future arrivals from abroad are likely to be landed in bond, and we do not anticipate any further pressure on the market for some Mind 0 baa, ‘There bas been a steady consumptive demand for home-manufactured flour, at the currency of Monday last. ‘The smaliness of the stock of American bas pre- in that descriptior barley have been scanty in supplies have been suffi- ciently large to compensate for the shortness of home- arrivals, ‘The inquiry for this rain has, throughout . the week, been excecdingly slow. and some diffulty has been experiencsd in effecting sules at former terms, Good heavy parcels of foreign have been offered at and cargoes, more or less out of condition, at 258 to 278 per qr., duty paid. ’ ‘ ‘The operations in malt have been of a retail charac- ter; but sellers have shown no disposition to lower thelr pretensio nd the purchases made for the sup- ply of actual wants have been at quite former rates. ‘Only $42 qrs of oats have beeu received from our own coast during the week, and 1140 from Scotland, whilst from Ireland we arc without arrivals, The smallness of the home supply hat. however, been paratively little felt, as upwards of 11,248 qra have come to hand from the near continental ports, whieh, together with what was previously on the market, has been more than adequate to mect the demand. ‘The principal dealers have, throughout the week,conducted their operations with great caution, and factors have been unable to establish any advance on last Monday's. quotations.

Freight to London and east coast was 3s 6d to 8s 0d for lurge sized, and 4s for small vessels. Good supplies had come forward from the interior, but a falling off in the receipts was calculated on. At the lower Baitic ports very littie business had, it seems, been done; and at Rostock, Stettin, ke., quota~ tions had remained nominally unaltered. At Hamburg, on ‘Tuesday, previous rates were insist- ed on for parcels on the spot, say 36s 6d to 37s for good. 2 to 68 Ib qualities, and 38s'6d to 39s per quarier for the best samples. In other articles there had not been much doing; still barley had slichtly advanced in price, and for a parcel of brew oats to be shipped from Emden 168 6d per qr on board had been paid. From the Mediterranean the reports are w! with- out interest, as far as wheat is concerned; and in In- compara- dian corn the ett appear to have tively unimportant. From Trieste we learn, under date of 5th inst., that a few parcels of Galatz Indian corn had, been sold at equal to 21s per qr. free on board, whilst freight to Eng- land was 6s to 6s 6d per qr. From Ancona we learn that nothing of consequence was being shipped from thence to England; and that British vessels were offered at a low fraight, viz., 68 to bs 6d, with 10 per cent.

Mail, June 24. ad We have no material im rement to notice in our markets this week. The business is now, and has for some time been confined ehiefly to dealers and consa- mers, who purchase only for their immediate want There is nothing like speculation, nor may it be ex- ected until confidence is more ‘decidedly restored. ‘his of course must greatly limit operations, but it is questionable whether it 1s not better to affect « few rapsactions at moderate profit for cash, than that risk should be incurred on more extended undertakings at higher prices. We hear s somewhat better account from the manufacturing districts, but our attention continues to be directed to the discrepancies of the ad- vices. The correspondent of the Liverpool paper of Wednesday report quite return to prosperity, whilst the two high Manchester authorities ‘of the same date intimate the one that there are some symptoms of im- provement, and the other that every thing is at a stand still. There are some circumstances which lead us to doubt the correctness of the melancholy note that is almost constantly sounded from Manchester. Some ped Borne mene fore alluded to, We may instance e fact that many of our trades people, who periodi- cally visit the markets there, find reins difficulty im getting orders executed ; and also that the spin- ners hav@@aken, in the pat ‘year, nearly 90,000 bales more cotton than in the, corresponding period lesh zee, whilst the prices of the raw matcrial have been two-thirds to three-fourths lowor than the prices of the corresponding p2riod Inst year. In fact, cotton was never lower than it is at the present time and for some months previously, whilst the purchasers have m exposed to little fluctuation, the quantity taken for speculation being, to this date, in the proportion of about 1 to 8 as compared wich the previous year.
