who is known TO be Ribandman shall ever be
admitted to be Repeater! If the Repeal War
dens do not suppress Ribandism in their neigh
borhoods, their names shall be struck out OF the
Repeal Association altogether hear with the
deepest regret, that in the county OF Cavan, ano-
ther set OF Ribandmen, calling themselves Billy
Smiths" or some such foolish name, have lately
made their appearance. They are worse, if pos
sible, than the former Ribandmen. No man that
is known to have anything to do with the Billy
Smiths" shall ever be admitted as Repeater
cOnjure--l entreat-and | wish could COM
mand every honest man who knows of the exist
ence Of "Billy Smiths" and Ribandmen, to de-
nounce them at once to the magistrates. At all
events, they will soon be betrayed by their own
companions and instigators; and when they
come to be imprisoned and fined, or transported,
they will then bitterly regret not having taken
my aftectionate and anxious advice | most re-
spectfully solicit the Catholic clergy to announce
these my sentiments in every locality in which
there may possibly exist Ribandmen or /" Billy
Smiths" |, in like manner, solicit them to add
to my advice the weight of their venerated
| counsel and authority. There is another topic
| upon which wish to address the people, and
| to offer to them my earnest advice.
| It relates to a practice now beginning to grow
up, OF lighting bonfires on one frivolous pretence
or another. 1t is foolish and dangerous Gus
| tom-it can do no good, and may do great deal
| of harm, even accidentally. Let there not be
any repetition of that most absurd and senseless
| practice. This is my advice-will you let me
say it is my command? In Ulster, particularly,
| it ought to be avoided am told that some OF
| the Orangemen there consider it as an insult
| that is decisive reason why it should never be
repeated. No honest Repeater would insult any
man Every honest Repeater would conciliate
| all men OF all parties Let there be nothing
more heard of these bonfres in Ulster, or in any
part Of Ireland.


cannot conclude without again offering to you
my most cordial thanks for the universal peace
and quiet that prevails. Let every man in every
part OF Ireland be tranquil and quiet, and con-
duct himself peaceably and Loyalty. Let him
totally avoid any riot, tumult, or violence.
Whatever may be the event of the pending
trials, let every man stay at home in quiet, and
be not tempted by any body to any species Of
breach of the peace. Every man who is guilty
Of the slightest breach of the peace, is an enemy
Of mine and Of Ireland. This is my advice No
Ribandism No sBilly Smithsl' No bonfires
Peace, quiet, tranquility, and within twelve !
hand.


am, your ever faithful servant,

WALES.


The Commissioners appointed to inquire into
the state of South Wales sit with closed doors.
and the reporter for The Times states that they
are not like to arrive at the true cause Of the dis
content among the people, as they move from
place to place, without giving sufficient notice to
those really aggrieved of their intentions The
same writer says, "The country, am told, is |
still in very unsatisfactory state, and the peo-
pie are only kept quiet by the presence of the |
military. Their secret meetings are now pre-
tn6 hof
outrages.


SCOTLAND.


We understand that the Senate of Kings Col
lege and University, Aberdeen, on Saturday last,
by the casting vote of Principal Jack, approved |
generally of the resolutions of the Senate of the
University Of Glasgow relative to the abroeation
OF religious tests in the Scottish Universities.


FRANCE.


1t is said that the Government are uneasy at
the Duke Of Bordeaux's visit to England and
some color is given to the report by statement
which appeared in the Times, that Prince Polio-
nae, who had come with four children to spend
the winter in Paris, had been ordered by the no.
lice on Monday, to quit it in forty-eight hours.


The Moniteur publishes the official royal ordi- |
nance convoking the Chambers on the 9th of
December.


The papers are engaged in discussing the off,
cial returns relative to the commerce Of France


SPAIN
There has been g Ministerial crisis" in
Spain. After the ceremony which gave Par |
llamentary coronation to the Queens majority,
5. Lopez and his cabinet somewhat ostentatious-
ly rendered their resignation on the ground that |
their appointment had hitherto been only provi-
sonal. They were requested by the Queen to
retain their places; but it was understood that
S. Lopez would ultimately retire.


The resignation, probably, was the finishing
stroke to the fate Of the Lopez Ministry, already
dlsmayed at the difficulties which it would have |
to encounter in the Cor!es; and on the evening
OF the 18th, the Queen commissioned S. Oozago
to form cabinet. It was supposed that General
Serrano would continue in office
