8 THE IRISH CONVENTION. —_———_————— f@dress of the “Amertcan-Irish Emigrant Ald Society” to the Irish Race and the Friends of Irish Independence in the United States, in Ireland, the British Colonics, and Elsewhere. THIRD DAY 8 SESSION. ‘The Convention of the Irish Emigrant Aid Association concluded its arduous labors yesterday, after a session of three days. It appears that there was a quarrel between Col. Doheny and Mr. John McClenahan. Col. Doheny charged his antagonist with being a spy of the British Consul, and said that he would be closetted with that gentlemen after the adjournment of the convention. This charge excited some feeling between the accuser and the ‘accused, and, to free the latter from the odium, an in- vostigating committee was appointed to inquire into the charge, and after their report, the following resolution was offered by Samuel Lumsden, seconded by Dr. Smith, and adopted by the convention :— In accordance with the action of the Investigating Commit the sense of this convention ia, that the attack on Mr. John McClenahan was falae and ‘malicious, and that the parties making the charges are unworthy of the confidence of this convention and of the, Irish people in America cngagod in this cause; and also that this con- vention pass & vote of confidence in Mr. John MoClena- han. The following resolutions and address, which are un- derstood to constitute the p'atform of the convention, were adopted:— Resolved That the first duty of all American citizens whether native born or naturalized, of whataver political opinions, or ot whatever nationalities, is to faithfully re- epect ull their cbligations of citizenth{y arising under the laws and constitution of our country. Recolved, That veither the lawe o! nations nor the laws | of the United States prevent any portion of the American people from mociing snd combining together to give woight to ‘heir opinions rega:ding the acts of a tyrant— to express their sy,noathy for the opprosaed, whether an individual or a people--to encourage the down trodien by a word of good cheer agriu to struggle for rights of which they may bave bien temporarily deprived by brute force, or jaavor by eombination, by facts, by argument, and by actien, 60 to shape the condact of ns- tions in certain contingencies ax to induce this or say other, when a lawiul opportunity precents itself, to do some great ast of moral anc historical ju.tice. Resolved, That the restoration to Irelaad of that sove- ty wiich she has never willingly conceded, but oguiuat the desecrasion of which she bas, from time to Lime, #0 constantly proterted, and her consequent rehet tom the worst government on the part of her vampire oppressor the wiria eyar raw, wou d be an act worthy of the noble character of American freedom, and under ose- tain circumstances, might be justified’ as well by the poundest national policy, as by the holiest sentiments of humanity. ADDRESS. ‘The National Convention of this Sooiety. assombled in the eity of New York, on the 4th day of December, 1855, deems its duty to addrers you, as te the principles aad obj-cts of the body which it represents. It is unneces- aary to evumerate the wrongs which Ireland has suffered under tke rule of a power which for centuries has held he: in av unwilling subjection— these are matiers of bisx- tory. 1t is unnecessary to remind you of the duty which ou owe to yourreives, and the ancient nation on whose cbalf we speak, to restore her to that place which the whole world admits she ought of rigut to hold, and to which ber best sons iv every generation freely sacrificed liberty and life to elevate her. To fuld! the’ destiny of the Lish nation—to effect the purpose for which so many triots have toiled and # (—this Ass-ciation has established. If apy reason be required why such an organization should have sprung into existence ac this time, it can be found in the t condition of affairs in Europe, which res nts to the mind of every man that favorable oppor- ity for which the ever reveltious and discoutenved iuad ot Ireland hae been waiting with anxiety and hope, To our fellow citizers in the Umited States we would say that in tbe furtherance of our pur pose, we mean to outrage no law of the land, to viola‘e no pledge which owe have given‘to the consticution of this country. Citi- zens of Irish birth have niver couspired to viclate the lnw; on the contrary, they have been the most active in detecting and bringing to justice the conspirators who, under the sanction of a foreign government, have flagi- tiourly cutseged the international faith. If gur ante- cedents in America be not a guarantee for onr future conduct, the presence of citizens of American bicth in our counsels ig a pledge tu the nation that we shall do nothing in violation ot the law. Our purpore ia not a recret, and we do not desire to ehyond it ip » veil ct mystery. In the convulsiona which ucw thake the monarchies of the old world; in tne com- plications of polities which involve so many nations, and aie Tapuly. deawing others into the voricx we sea strong probability that the long expected opportunity may arise when Ireland can (if her chikren both at bome and abread be ready for the emergency) take hor preition ae an independent nation. To prepare ourselves for that emergency is a duty so clear to us that to neg'ect it would be an unpardonabie crime. From the Irishmen in America, who, with us, acknow- leége the obligation which that duty vrescribes, we ask unanimity of action, co-operation of Inbor, harmony of ventinent, anv above all, a sacrifice of every prejudice, wevery personal ambition, of every tudividual pique, for the sake of a cause so racred. From thore (it thece be any such) who sincerely differ from us as tu the policy ne bave wdopted, we claim in the name of that ruflering fund co dear to us all, forbearance of censure, and & 4xuce to opposition; in order that, for once, at least, oven though: it be for the last time, the childran of Ireland may have a fair opportunity of proving their atility to redeem their country. and wipe out the stains which the Girgrace of former mismanagement and the crime of de- fea" have left on her ercaicheon, We wouls remind the Irish in the Brili-h colonics and elsewhere tl at this canse is common to the whule raco— that history has recorded on its pages the name of a re- nowned nation which God never deeigoed rhould vanish from the sight ot men forever—that thia pa son is their own--is now held snd owned by ® stranger— hat the finger of destiny pints to the hour when the long Jost heritage ney Ye restored. We invite them to partici- pate in the gl: rious struggl+ for its redemption. Under whatever flag they find shelter, cr however prosperous their lot may be, their natural home is in the awect valleys of 04 lieland, beside her historic rivers, nud under tke abadow of her ancient pillar-towers and cat! drals. The sshes of thcir kindred have hallowed the rotl ~-it is the consecrated ground in which their own bones thould be laid. We weuld ark the Irish people resident in Ireland a few momentous queaticns:—Is the present condition tu whicit you live the «ne in which you are satiated to remain for ever t Are you so contented, to prosperous, and #0 loyal to the reigning Sovereign of Great Bricain that you cextre no change in the government of your own country?

In justise to you, we caunot believe this assurance, we reject it with scorn.

H. Sarm, M. D. J. J. McGowan, After which the convention adjourned sine die, Tn connection with the foregoiug we publish the follow- ing from the Philadelphia Ledger of Wednesday, from which it appears that seme of the members were not very unanimous in their opinions, and that they were more likely to fight among themselves than sgainst Eng- land. We have said that the meetings were private and no reporters of the public press aduitted, but they were not so private that the correspondent of the Ledger was excluded, for he seems to have been present at the first day's proceedings :— No reporters were admitted, but a spirit rapping a- quaintance of your correspondent says.» most exolti and personal debate sprung up, a8 to who should be ad- mitted to participate in the proceedings. Colonel Doheny taid be represented ov thot floor at least two thousand armed men; but if Mr. Cleuahan (editor of the Citizen) to take a ceat, he 1y) would take up bis hat ané walk out. ‘This outburst brought Mr. MoCuananan to bis fest, who informed Mr. Doheny, ina loud voiee, that he would be held responsibly for that language, Doheny, amid lod cries to order, insisted uj cClonshan’s leaving the convention, pronouncing “m traitor,” and de- claring that, within two hours, be (McC.) ‘would be closeited with the British Consul, making that individual acqueintec with all the proceedings.

Another delegate sai? he had come there as a soldier. He had fought in the Mexican war. He wasn’t an orator, and nee come there to talk. He wanted to free his country. A delega‘e suggested that if Mr. McClenaban sat in that room, po New Yorker would sit with him, as he was a mean man. Mr, boCLevanaN—'‘ You lie!”” ‘he Imxcate—Shaking his fist in MoClenahan’s face, “Tela you responsible for that remark, when I get you cut of Gocrs.”? Ancther celegate said, ifany zeportera wore present they had better retire. One of the fraternityy with o “rich nich brogue,” who c’aimed to reprevent the New York Fxprvas (KDow Nothing organ) remonstrated against leaving— whereupon Adelega*e moved that the reporter, especially of such paper as that, be requested to retire. the reporter, Lowever, kept his beat; the Secretary was in favor of his staying. ‘After this breeze wes over, a delegate from Ohio re- buked the dinporition to disnmiox visible in he conven: tion, Afie: awbile, when the army was ready to march, he anid, they would be squabbling as to who should be the General’ he rupposed, Fer his own part, he was ready to serve in the ranks. ‘The /oNowinz account of the objects of the convention was pubstshed in the Ledger of yester?ay, from which tt seems that an invasicn of Cankda has been projected aa the most yu nerable part of the British empire, and that the material sid, or 4 porticn of it, is to be farnished by an egent of Russia in this counts, ‘The Irish National Convention, at the Astor House, continues to excite much 1emark. Though but little is known outside of what is going on, the lobbies are crowded with an excited crowd in a state of high fevor, while exprereions of Ciesatiafaction at the way things are managed insite are everywhere audible. I met Col. Lobeny marching up and do »m the hall, this morning, exburtirg bis frienca to warh their hands of the whole conce:n. For some reason or other, he and the editor of the Citizen are at dyggers’ points; and, as toe convention will not turn ‘Mac’? out, the Colonel has taken the position of a telligerent outaider. One ret ccmplain that another set bas taken it upon themeelves to ‘cut and dry”? the whole affair so as to ad- vance, not the “liberation of Irelund,’” but certain per- soral'ends. Hence the time is pretty much taken up ia gross personalities, and frequent appenla even to agencies of & m:re material character. ; A p'an, Lam told, has been submitted “to reac) the heart cf the Britsh Lion’ through his Canadian lungs. Five thonsend able-bodied Hiberpiane are »epresented to be all ready for exrolmen' to march to Canada, in order to co-operate with some Russian demonstration, said to be organizing on the northwest coast.

The Pritich Consul, Mr Barclay, is taking s lively in- terest in this movement. Political Inteliigence. APPEAL TO THE DEMOCKCY OF ALABAMA. We have arrived at an eventtul era in the history of our country. Such have been the changes in political or- grnirations in the United States, and such are the cange- raus tencencies of modern fanaticiem, that we deeply fori the necessity of frequent recurrencs and atrict adherence to the time honored State rights doctrine of the consti 'u- ten. In the Nerthern sections of the Union, politica) dema- grgves are meking bold proclamations of a law higher than the constitution, and forming ranks for even more deadly assaults upon our Southen institutions than we bare heretofore encountered. Fearing that Kansas, unéer the repeal of the Missouri restriction and of the naturel laws of emigration, may become a slave State, they ore rerorting to unprecedented, illegs! and unholy interference in the rettlement of that Territory—whore the tlaveholcer already enjoys the protection of law—in crder to conver! thet fair soil into a free soil abolition State, Shouid they fail in the accomplisiment ot this rerult, they will enéeavor, by every 1weans in thei: power, to prevent the adinisslon of Kansas as a slave Ptate. “In combination and party sfiiliation with these ene- mies of the South and Siate rights there are in the same rection of the Union Know Nothing organizations, relf- styled American, powerful in numbers, but more power- fal for diraster avd ruin to the ¢untry, seek! portimn of the Amerioxn peopl Sent of birth and ther religio reribe a large count of the ac us faith, but as moch, if not more, becsuse they have refused to unite in an vnholy crussde upon slavery as it exists in our Scuthern Ststes.

The minutes of the Inst meeting were read and approved; after which the following busnoss wea transacted:— Petition of several citizens doing business in the lower part of the city, asking for steam fire enginea there, for the better protection of property. Referred to special commnittee, Alderman Howarp called for the reading of a commu- nication from the Chief of Police. Alderman ELy said that he hoped it would not be read, an it contained offensive Janguage towards the Board. Alderman Howanp called Alderman Ely to order, on the ground that he could not speak of the contents of the communication till it was presented to the Board. ‘The Cuair sustained the point of order, but decided that the communication waa inadmissible, an Lorp contended that it was admissible, and | Alderm: that the action of the Bosrd in declaring the office of Chief of Police vacant was not legal, and was beyond the power or authority vested in it. Aldermen Briccge—Oh, the opinion of that gentleman ain’t worth # straw. . Alderman LorD was proceeding to speak still farther, when be was interrupted several times by Ald. Ely. He sald, if prevented further from exerci: reroga- tive of speuking he would demand the protection, the interferer ce of the Sergeant-at-Arms, He then proceeded to say that if am injustice had been done to the Chief it was ‘only sight that he ehould be heard in his owa fer ce. Alderman Exy roid that it was an insulting aud offen- sive communication; but he could not conceive why gen- themen should be #0 sensitive in a matter which they argued could not affect the Chief so tar as his teaure of Offize was concerned. Aldormen Buccs also thought it was insulting, and the Beard had been humbuggei enough by the rascality of ‘be people in the lower part of the City Hall, He saw his confidential clerk was pre:ent.

Another day has passed, and yet the mystery that seemed 80 obstinately to surround the fate of tho crew o the ill-fated schooner Eudora is not cleared up. The ves- tel now Hes in about eight feet of water at low tide; but leans 0 much on her larboard side, that no thorough search of that si¢e can be obtained at present, In haaling the wreck closer towards shore this morning, an unexpect- ed obstacle presented iteelf, which, will, no doubt, throw the workmen back several hours in their labors. The centre board, which Had been down, became jammed in the box, in consequence of some coal getting into the ca- vity, and thus increased the vessel's draught about twenty inches. All attempts to raise the beard by means ofa pur- re . Had it not been for this unexpected Sincalty, the Badore would, ta all probably, have Does high an a dag next low water, anaa general searcao throughout entire trame could have been effected. As the case is, not ‘definite can be learned in regard to the whereabouts of the bodier, until Friday atternoon. ‘The attendance of visitors from New York, White Plains, Harlem, Glen Cove and New Rochelle was quite large to- day, a8 {here was a general belief all over the country, and even among the wreckers themselves, that the vessel would be reached so a8 to admit of a thorough search. Great disappointment was manifested by those who had been daily in attendance, but they were they learned tus tania the delay, and spent the re- mainder of the da; in around the heautiful bay that lice in front of City inland and seeing what was wonderful and strange around that sect of the country. At low water, or at least when the {de was at a prett; low ebb, (3 o'clock P.M.) Captain rect Mr. Tyler and beard of provided wi others, went on ‘the wreck, boat hooks ard other instruments, for the pu of search. ing the cabin. which was then three-four! full of wa- fer.

It was found to contain a large amount of coal, probably several tons. It was then thought that the bedies had beea placed is the bottom of the “run” and sovered over with this coal, #0 as to deceive thore in search, and accordingly the boathook was shoved iato and through the coal for more then half an hour, but with no Kuzoess. At one time it was thovght the search would prove good, for the boathook ceme in contact with a piece of gpork of such a tize, that the man in the cabin was led to be- Meve that he had at last bit upon the right apot; but when the mase of meat was extricated, the hopes of all vanished as quickly as they came. Tho run was tto- roughly searched after this, but nothing in the shape of ‘& corpee could be discovered. Tne search, though not a thorough one by any means, was continued for several hours after this, cabin and forecastle were only artly searched; but evou s ween to render preva- font “the bellef among the visitera in attendance, that there were no bodies on board, avd that if murdered, they must have. been cast overboard by the negro pre- vicus to his scuttling the vessel.
