This toast was received with the greatest enthusiasm. Mi. O'UosskLL rose und said?This is a great day for J Ireland?(Laughter and cheers ) It literally is a great ' day for Ireland?one of the demonstrative proofs of the J wisdom of ttie prosecution?(Luugliter.) ilow certainly ' Ireland is cowed by the Attorney Uenerul?(renewed laughter.) How frightened the men of Limerick are ut 1 the Altoruey tiencial and his devil Brewster?(Hoars of ! laughter.) Yes, it shows that Ireland has materials to j work with; and if there be found in this country any one vain enough to imagine that the liberties of Ireland are not j fast approaching, this day has proved the futility of such 11 ' notion, anil has gratified the heart of the oldest agitator amongst von?(Cheers and laughter). Yea, it is a day ot ' hope for Ireland; and when I came here to pay a tribute ' of respect, as you have done, to the estimable gentleman ' who has made such an honest, right thinking speech, as you have heard, 1 did suppose that eyes, if not tongues. ' would interrogate me as to what is the state ofthe Repeal ' cause/ What are its prospects, and what do I suggest as its future conduct! 1 am forced, I am aide, to answer those questions?(Bear, hear). The state of the Repeal f cause is this?At present three-fourths of the Irish people have unanimously declared in favor of it. A portion of the remaining fourth-the Catholic portion of the north " at least?aru also for the Repeal? (Bear, hear, hear). An immense number of the honest-hearted Presbyterians of f Ulster are for the Repeal, and several enlightened mem- r bers of the (Established Church are for it; in short, no * cause nau ever no poweriui a support?(near, near ; ,1 nai i is one fact. What is the next I Why, thirty-seven mon ' ster meetings were held, not including the monster meet- a ing of this day?(Cheers and laughter). That more human beings weru congregated for peaceable, aye, or even ( for warlike purposes, than ever assembled in any conn- ,] try before?(Hear.) That there were 0,400,000, us men- (] tioued in the bill of indictment. But what isthcfact, t. as was alluded to by Mr. O'Brien; not one breach ji of the peace was committed at uny of the monster f meetings?(Hear). Nuy, it is a wonderful fact that not y even an accident happened in a throng of so many thou- ( sands ?(Hear.) Six millions four hundred thousand met i together, and observed even the politeness of refined so- j ciety in their behavior towards each other, demonstrating their right to go\ crn their country by the complete manner in which they govern themselves. In our agitation ' we wero offered assistance from America ; that is, we were proffered the aid of arms, but we refused it ; and why I Because ours is a peaceable struggle?a struggle which would be useless if accompanied by force of uny ! description whatsoever (hear, hear, hear.) ' We are offer- J ed French Sympathy : that we did not desire ; we disdain- ' oil accepting the assistance of tiiu pro-slave parly in A me- ' rica ; and thus was our agitation proceeding, without a j ruffle on its peaceful current, when out came the proclu- ' mation forbidding the meeting of Clontarf. It might have ' been out the day before, but that would have been to have 1 warned u*. There was a friend of mine who used to say, ' " If 1 want to conceal anything I put it in the ' Dublin 1 Gazette'" (laughter.) Nobody read it?hugger-mugger us it is; but I happened to get a copy of the proclamation j before it was placarded, and I took care that no blood was shed at any rate (hear.) Did we miscalculate when we : said the people would obey our advice ? No ; we said what was literully true?they obeyed it as a command, ' and at the very latest moment the spirit of obedience was at work, and the strand of Clontarf was freed from the blood of the Irish people. But then came thundering out the prosecution. The attorney-general has been blamed for showing considerable ill-temper. No, 1 am not at all surprised at it, indeed, 1 think him in a great measure excusable (laughter;) for recollect, he had amongst the traversers persons ugainst whom he entertained the bitterest animosity, it was I who, in the House of Commons, moved for an inquiry into the conduct of his father. The house did not comply with that motion ; hut it was not my fault. I was as hostile when defeated as I was before; ami considering what a virtue tilial affection is, it is not to he wondered at that he should he hostile to me (laughter.) Then, agnin, my son John suceeoded at the Yonghall election, and Smith was defeated, notwithstanding that he petitioned ugainst my son's return ; and no wonder he should not he overpleased at that defeat (laughter.) ? He had also two priests in his net (laughter)?three writers for the press and a secretary (laughter)?that is the active hatch ef conspirators ; and they took?only imagine it?nine mouths to make up this conspiracy (laughter ) The indictment specifies proceedings which took place during no less than nine months, and then the bill of particulars in addition, dr omnibus qui hutdam alt is (great laughter.) A man might laugh till lie was sick, and not he half through the indictment (renewed laughter.) Now we are to be tried and this I will say, that an iudictmcnt mure falsely charging individuals was never yet framed (cheers.) They charge us witli sedition anil dislovaltv. Oh. thev are dislovul who would turn tin; hearts of the IriHh people from the Queen. (Loud cricn of "hear, hear ") I nay, I utterly deny the charge, and hurl the untruth in the teeth of anybody hut a Queen'* Counsel, or an Attorney General (laughter). I am asked what is to become of the indictment 1 My answer is, that depends upon the jury (hear, hear). It may take some time at trial, hut the result must be an inevitable triumph to Repeal if we get a fair jury (hear, hear); It is a goo-1 deal upon the dice -we may throw, and be tri-" umphant, or we may be defeated (hear, hear). I have always taken nn active part in putting down bigotry ami fanaticism. If the jury hfi fomjiosnd of that faction, and take notice that, during the revision of the grand jury list, the Orange party had their usual electioneering agents present, there is little hope for us (hear, hear, hear). I am asked how they can tlnd a verdict on that indictment I They may convict me for being a Popish agitator (laughter); hut as to conspiracy, 1 loathe the word?the idea of conspiracy never entered my mind. No; I belong to a great national combination ; and I am proud to belong to it ; ami whilst I repudiate the foulness ot conspiracy .come weal or woe. I am wedded to that national combination (cheers.) But Iwish to tell the people again how they should lie prepared for coming events?if thejury should lie unhappily misinformed, and a verdict be found ngainst us, I am not afraid of any disturbance (hear.) I am not afraid of any disturbance from this to that period, nor of any disturbance even then ; but there is no harm in repealing tny caution to the people. It would, indeed, break my heart to think'.that there should be any disturbance. I would abandon the Repeal cause if there was any outbreak. Pon't the people see that their enemies are perfectly prepared with troops, artillery and ammuni lion ' Let the people recollect that it was the fomented rebellion of 17911 that carried the Union (hear.) Give me but that noble tranquillity which I conjured you to observe, and the Repeal is certain (cheers.) The present stall' of armv cannot last here two vears. At me. sent every warlike preparation is marie The UhadnmanttnH (laughter,) the Cerbcrui, and the Proserpine, and I don't know how many other ancient nnme* (laughter.) are ready to convey troop* everywhere through Ireland ; hut I remind the people that the Kmperor of Iluaaia in threatening hngland there are marchings int f recce -and they an- fomenting disturhaneea in Servia (hear, henr,) nnrl r.nglnnd cannot pass two venrs without wanting Ireland ; and military force could never rontrivg to put down a people, provided they kapt themselves always in the right (cheers.) What Is very estraordinnry is, that in that voluminous indictment there is not a single count for a'tcrding an unlaw ful meeting?not ane. They admit that the Repeal Association is a legal hody. We arc now preparing our petitions to Parliament, and wo shall have ?'gnat ,rea equal in number to the six millions four littnred thousand rprriflrd In the hill of indictment- (laughter ami cheer* ) Ireland need have no (car, unless from crimo and violence. With that sentiment on my lips ? with that conviction on my judgment?with that anxiety in my heart?1 rail upon you all to ohide the coming trials with patience and tranquility?(eheera.) hot us look forward to pence during the coming crisis.

I rejoice, then, my friends, that we have made this demonstration. Your monster meetings went on until, at the close of them all, they were interrupted by the government, and it was said that that which was pence before would, on the suppression ol those meetings, he rebellion immediately.

Hearing someling mo-R under the bed ho stepped round to the opposite ide and,to his astonishment,found his servant girl, named auc Burton, ciawling from underneath. A light was ohlined, and on searching his pockets, he found that fitW in ank notes had been taken from them, which w ere found ' 1 her possession, in the |>ocket book that she had stolen om bis clothes. Mr. (iiles brought her to the lower po" i ice, w hero she stated, on her examination, that she went i xto the room to get a light, and not to steal. The ovience against her being conclusive, she was fully comlifted to answer the oftence, and will receive two years in lie State prison, at least, as a caution to other servants .'ho may have pilfering notions. She has lived in the irnily of Mr. Giles nearly two years, and, although many i rt icier of jewelry, Ac. have bean missed, yet, until this i iscovery, she has avoided detection. Many ol the burgluies committed in this city may be traced to the participaion of servants, who, by connivance and agreement with l hose rogues, purposely unfasten the doors for their eurance. and give information ol the location of silver pluto n the house, and other valuable property.

Before Judge Kent. Jan. R.?.1 Chancery Defalcator?Hiram Walwoilh VI Henry Waring. ? In this rase the plaintiff was one of the clerk's of the Court of Chancery, and the defendant resident of the city of Brooklyn, and the action Was brought on a bond which the delendunt had given to secure tl.e payment of certain defalcations which the Court of Chancery had Kuliered at the hands of Nathaniel K. Waring, oiico a Master and Receiver in Chancery. It appeared that, in the year 18311 or iai7, Mr. Nathaniel K Waring wns appointed a Master in Chancery by |?litical influence, and that bis father the defendant became hi* surety to the t burt. In the course ol those speculative times, the Master in t|iiestion turd certain monies w hich bail come into his bands in bis official capacity, to further some speculations in real estate ami stocks, whirh speculations failing, the < ourt of which lie wus an othcer was compelled to tall back on bis surety, in order to save tlic 1 property of certain orphan children, \l ho otherwise would he destitute. Mr Waring, the defendant In this suit, proposed that certain bonds and mortgages held by him from citl/.ens in nnd around Brooklyn, should be placed in the custody of the Court, and that he w ould give a new bond in rase the securities thus ottered should not he sufficient to rover the defalcation. This oltor was accepted, and in due course of law, thu bonds were enforced, and they failing to produce the needful, the mortgages Were foreclosed, but owing to the depreciation in real estate since the speculative mania, the ( ourt renlir.ed only the sum of ten dollars towards tho defalcation. I'ndet these cirenni stances the ( ourt had recourse to the bond of the defendant, and hence the present action. Kor the defence it was set up that due diligence was not used by the Court in enforcing payment ol the lands, nnd of foreclosing the mortgages, or much more might have been realUcdtowards.thc claim which was hanging over the head of tho delendont, Several witnesses were examined to sustain thu allegation,lint they tailed to convince either the Court oi|ltiry.

A tew nights since nt a fashionable house where the bouijuet in the centre of the table cost the master of the mansion fifty dollars, I saw a dozen fair hands demolish it before thirty persons had entered the sapper rooms or had a view of it ; but this was not all; in a few minutes 1 perceived the beautiful bon-bons and other decorations, which could nrif luiuwililt' liuVn Kuuit uotut. ...

This wemrd to me like magic, and while I wan peering around resolved to fathom the mystery, 1 heard a mild, interesting looking lady say, .Do give me borne more of those mottoes, (if you can tind any) for bob ; these are all for sissy, holding up her cambric thrust full of sweets. Now, this may be considered veiy genteel in New York ; but in London, or Paris, we should call it real, right down pilfering; and any male or female guilty of such conduct, would be excluded from society. Perhaps your Gothamites may excuse themselves on the plea of following the Koniuii custom, that each guest might despatch to Ins own residence the dish which most pleased urn ; hut they did not do this until the feast was iiushed ; for they would have thought it sacrilege 0 mutilate what was intended to beautify. Perhaps it is a habit derived from tbeir Dutch im pstors. 1 Not at all?it is only modern ttwartwouting.] At all events, my curiosity is very great un the subject. I have some idea of giving a parly, myself; but, then, your citizens may take a fancy to my silver forks and spoons, wlucn, by-the-by, 1 think they would be quite as justifiable in appropriating In themselves as flowers and bon-bons. Yours, very respectfully^ A Traveller. Very Late ikom Texas.?We have received advices from Galveston to the 27th ult. by an arri val at New Orleans. The Texan Congreiw assembled on the 11th and the President sent in his message. We make a few extracts therefrom :? Relative to England lie cay* : The uniformly active and friendly oflie.es which iler Britannic Majesty 's government has, at the earnest request of thla, interposed |between Texas and Mexico, cannot fail to he regarded as highly gratifying evidence of ju generous ana friandly Jisposition, and of a disinterested desire to produce results, is far as may be compatible with the relations subsisting between tire at Britain and Mexico, in complete accorJance w ith the assurances w hich have been given. Nor lias the Executive any distrust that all professions on the part of Iler Britannic Majesty's government will not be efficiently fulfilled. France continues to manifest the most friendly disposition towards Texas, as a proof of which that government has proposed the establishment of a line of steamships between the two countries, which the President considers a very important desideratum, for its tendency to increase commerce, and afford facilities lor the transmission of intelligence and fur emigration A Charge d'AH'aircs to the Netherlands hasbeen appointed siiicc the adjournment of the last Congress, and empowered to form commercial treaties wills Belgium and the lianse 1 owns. Commerce with these latter had already opened, and it increasing. The Bremun States have communicated a resolution declaring that, upon the adoption of a similar resolution by the Texan Government, commercial relations shall lie established between both, upon a reciprocal footing. This subject claims the early attention of Congress. The Texan Minister at l'nris has 'been empowered to open relations with the Spanish Government, provided he can give it his attention. The importance of a commercial treaty with Spain, on account of the contiguity to Cuba, which would aflonl a market for many of the products of Texas, the President says would seem to demand early exertions to open the intercourse. lie recommends the appointment of a diplomatic agent at the Court of Spam, if the means of the nation willjnatily it. On the subject oi the relations existing between Texas and the United States, he says? hrum the communcen ent of our national existence until within the last spring and summer, no circumstance of an unpleasant character had occurred between tba United States and Texas. It is true, that the treaty of amity, navigation and commerce, concluded at Washington in July, lHl'j, for causes unknown to the Executive, was not atified bv the Government ol the former ; but it is possible that tlit- action necessary to its ratification will yet be taken. It may, how ever, admit of a doubt, If the rejection of that treaty may not prove signally advantageous in the end, to our own citizens, for it will be recollected that, by a comparatively small expenditure, the course of trade may he turned from th? Red River into our own |iorts and commercial tow ns, through the medium ol a turnpike or railroad and the Ichannels of our own rivers. Indeed, it is natural always to prefer the least obstructed and most ad\ untagroiis way to market. And the time may not be far distant when a rich commerce, which has hitherto lound its way to the ocean through the rivers and jajrts of other countries, will be poured into our own, and materially assist in building up and supporting our institutions. It is with sincere regret that I feel called upon to lay before the Honorable ( ungress, the fact of an infraction of iiiir r?*Vf*ntii* Ijiivm lit (lip t'llifittn nf Mw? StatM mi. tended witli ciministances of u very unpleasant character. .... Tlic characteristic magnanimity of the U. Htates, their immediate nrightiorhood to this country, and all the circumstance* connected therewith, induce Out ladief that speedy an<l ample justice will he accorded to Texas and all cause of complaint cease to exist. On the aubiectof the currency, the President refers to the fact that there was no currency and no credit when he came into oftice, and no prospect of obtaining the means of conducting the affairs ul government, and that < otigress had found it necessary to declare their Inability to redeem the tiaper which had been issued, estimated at $l!l,1)00,000 i that lie had recommended a plan for a currency to Congress, which was partly adopted, some of the guarantees, essential in his opinion, to restore confidence and ensure the redemption of the new currency being withheld i that notwithstanding the wants and difficul ties of the government, the taxes were greatly reduced ami their collection postponed, and the government left to rely solely on the im)>ort duties, which, from the unsettled state of the country, were very limited, and that un der these cireumstances the experiment of creating and sustaining the new currency was made, the conseauenre of which was that the value of exchequer bills fell to 24 on the dollar. The President says that it is necessary the country should he supplied with a circulating medium,which may he effected by issuing no more exchequers at any!one time than the government can redeem ill gold and silver. Ho estimates the amount of lulls now in circulation at about $13,000, and says there is no reason to anticipate any emergency to require any larger issue than the government can control or rcdrem. The President recommends the exclusion of all foreign bank paper, from which the chixens have auatelned great losses by its depreciation end being so much counterfeited. lie further recommends the prohibition and suppression of all hank pt]ier issued within the republic and intended to circulate as a currency, and thinks that it w until go Isr to sustain the national currency end enable the government to furnish a circulating medium. lie then goes on te show that Texas has done all in her power, consistent with a dun regard to self-existence, to preserve, under adverse circumstances, the national faith, and says that Texas litis never mtertained the design of repudiation. The President recommend* the repeal of all lews authorizing foreign loans, for the reason thst the action unde.rthem has hitheito been attended with serious Injury , and lie considers the resources of the country amply sufficient nqt only to sustain the government, but to discharge all its liabilities. The revenue has been commensurate to the support of the government for the last six years, end there is now a small surplus in the Trrasury. It i* said that the Tsxan ' ommissioners for concluding an armistice between Texas and Mexico have written from Monterey, that prace can be maintained by nothing short of the submission of Texas to Mexico. It is estimated that the quantity of Texas cotton which will pass through New Orlesni this year, will reach from HO to 100,000 bales. , ?- .i cnnOdentlv stated, had already taken ' "'iR.'
