Now, wben the reign= igerchy would detach them from that people by a . ' • ury sop, they view the proposal with scorn. 1 eine- ware that some suppose the Catholic Priesthood , to be -.'. influenced in their struggles for Repeal by the hopst of seeing their Church rise into a splendid State i .--;•-. doge. They are wrong. The Anglican Chorale hes been opposed by the Catholic hierarchy on the breed- ..-,.- est principle. Their arguments, repeated fee.efello 2 '.. • have sunk into, almost become a portion of the people's . hearts. Admitting that the Cat h olic Prienthood Nigh' ..' power, this very wish would prevent a Stine earteit. •:,,. ion. No Priesthood ever yet had sottieep se boidcele ',.- the affections of the people as the Irish.Ptiesthereit etel '''., they possess this hold from ttreh entire dependence on „: the communicants.

I wish every American could see with his eetwire as I have seen the eminent Democratic nature of Her ---: peal. - Not depending entirely on the editonals of the ' .:l liberal press, or On the "speeches" of liberal orators, 3 I have watched eery carefully the tone of convert* Lion among Kepealers--and the Democracy of My own country in not more adverse than they t0..a1l .rito. nopoly. I regard the leading repealer* of Ireland set ripe fur Republicanism; but at the same thee theY might not, from motives of home and foreign policy, `.. currythe doctrine to an extreme. „bet the fact that O'Connell has proclaimed his desire to see every male over twenty one years of age throughout the United Kingdom entitled to suffrage, be perpetually kept hi the remembrance of America. The Libelee*, kit true, is regarded by many of his countrymen who are deeply imbued a ith the doctrine of equality, as com paratively Conservative. Let him be. If Uitiversal Sidfrager is granted, the very institutions ("soda Ida political balanced") which he would present, would -erive their death blow from his owe greed Raises' measure. From all I have observed in Ireland, I feel Amen- f.." can sympathy towards this land to be sympathy to.: i' . . wards struggling Democracy..
