7 SEPTEMBER 1839, Page 1
Mr. O'CONNELL is engaged in organizing a new association, in
which Whigs and Ministerialists may coalesce with Repealers. Of course he must have something of the sort to keep his constituents in good humour, and preserve the semblance of agitation for Ire- land. The Reform Registry Association answers that purpose. " Next year, I'll get all, or I will have Repeal"—such was O'Cos- NELL'S exclamation at the great Cork dinner in August 1838. The agitator has got nothing ; "justice to Ireland" has again been refused; but, instead of agitating for Repeal, he dissolves the Pre- cursor Society, and unites with Whigs and Anti-Repealers. And so it will be to the end of the farce.
