It is very evident that the Catholic Emanci
pation Act has yet gone but a very little wa v
in quieting tho disturbtncei of Ireland. Bv
several of the late arrivals, we hivn buen firn-
islted with the revolting details of fresh out
rages in various parts of the rottntry. Wo
have also heretofore stated tlio fact of the meet
ing of a Privy Council at thu Vice Regal Lodge
in Dublin, to lake into consideration the alarm
ing slate of tho country. At that meeting a
proclamation was issued for (lie sifporossion of
all assemblies, tending to endanger the public
petce. The proclamation, which is general
well respect to counties,'prohibits all nioetiogs
held for (lie purpose'of comm ancamig religious
or political opinions or-sentiments, and com
mands atl migistratvs to be tidjng and assisting
iu the dispersion thereof. Tim Dublin Even
ing Post thought this measure would be of no
use; and insists that tlio circumstances of me-
nuco, outrage and death, and the goneral dan
ger resultin'g" to the peace of the country from
the popular meetings, would justify a 'retort to
martial law. The Liverpool Chronicle holds
the fallowing language Upon this subject— ■
‘‘That the -Governnoqt ought >0 (un down
all there tumults is certain. Thq C i holic Re*
lief bill, prudent or imprudent ns ni iv ho, ought
to have fair pi iy, .and his Majes y's subjects
be, at least, restrained.f*‘om cutting one atioth-
er’s throats, or even breaktng each other’s
heads. Every me isore however strict, which
will effec' this without being made tho cloak
fur some other, wo are ‘buund to approve.—
But let nut tho violent slanders directed, against
the Protestnnts of Ireland, with which aim pub
lie prints' abound, pass tyithmit great scru.inv
and doubtfulness. Let it be remembered that
it has been avowed, that a portion of the Catho
lic rent,.and that net a sin-ill one we darn sty,
has been long employed in retaining tho ser
vice* of certain of ilia Irish nnd Linden pa
pers, and the purchase money is st.ll in its
coutso of influence. Lot it also be remember
ed that if the Protestants of Ireland are ran
larnt and excitement; they are net placed in
circumstances quite so cumfortablo ns wo lire
in this country. II ul- the Catholics declared
ti is—paid Jasbup Pacha by n promissory thi-msvlvessntisfiod with tho hill of relief, and
note, on which lie dare nut bring a declaration, settled down into quiet habits, then indeed; the
woiiili*!id they were hot in Constantinople—
looked upon tiie Sultan ns a very obstinate man,

We may he mistaken—hut wo dp not be

when the Catholic leaders keep ilia peasantry

That urgatuzilion Government is artfully call

ought to suppress, but that Ministry will greatly
repent it, and perhaps when too late, which
listens to the clamour for disarming and dis
embodying the Protestants of Ireland. Mr,
