Yet his hopes were higff hopoj his dreams were droams such aB good! mun drenm, of increased freedom-and happhiuss to nian. For theso he dared irt Ji«riloua times to raise voice and sword, aid' through all the vicissitudes of his life he bore himself like a man loyal to the good1 cause he first loved—the salvation of his nutivo itluiid and hor peoplo faithful to the flag he followed—th# flag of there-] public which gave him a welcome, and .a) home loyal arjd faithful not in seeming, or in woids alone, but- in tho deeds ot' earnest- devotion and sacrifice of self,' wherein men put to hazard what tnen most prize on earth, ease and pleasure.ahd liberty and life. How the old, t^imes come, back to im when I think of him and of tho scents where lirst I mot him. Old frienos seem to throng abound me again, and voices to whisper to mo that hare boen silent for years. ,Hovv"SvveUl remombtT that splendid faour—tnoro than twenjy golden years ngo—when the lntolle tnof Ireland awoke from its-long torpor and by voice and pen, in lesson and song, and lecend of tho past, Bpoke to the souls of the Irish people, and for a while they dared to think and hope and strive for tbe redemption of their crushed and insulted" island., For years, the voice of the groat Tribune, O'Connell, had thundered ih the oars of the multitudejhia denunciation of that fa tal net which had^robbed Ireland of jts independent existence, of its national parliament, of all the bright hopes of pros pority and progress, which had grown up in tbe short but brilliant era of her legislative independence. He told us of the days when Flood and Grattan, with el© quince thtt shall live as long as the language in which they spoke, proclaimed tho rights of the Irish parliament,and how one-hundred thousand armed volulftiArs stood ready with their swords to mako the* declaration good. Ho told how with mi raculous rapidity tbe slumbering jpowei of tbo Irish nation awoke, and. thp fair form, so long bowed and Soiled fn "tprrow, arose and smiled again in all har ancient beauty—an Island Queen. Then how the short and happy era passed like a sunny hour in a winter's day, and by fraud and force,—by such treachery (te bad men resort to for bad ends,—Ireland was robbed ofhor legal rights as an independent kingdom, and ciushcd and strangled and suu-H'i.ted in that fatal grasp,which knaves and fools did then call the act Qfjffhion.

Theso things, day artor Auj!, Gfajahnoll told to listening thousands with all /tig Are of eloquence that was in him, till at' last, as bis voice grew bolder and more definnt, it found its way to the-quiet halls where students pored over the dreams of ages.

the first thero was the~ ring of true eloquence in ftlt be said. Etc' was bold, di« red and fearless, Oihere had'caught up the harp 6f Ireland and taught It to awa-^n-n^pfbiias '&n^ |jp#ag tiat long had sleety. jpJBtjt Meagh^r-^ yoioet was as the trum'pet iilast to-xouse the whole island ttod startle it intt) entBUprise and action^ His popularity was unboumled. Heir won, all beMrti iMd imp^slii6i*ll*w!th' the Con-: sciousness of his power, till we thought we heard in the,voice of that inspired boy a rriigjc as qiife^ty fs Grattan's, to fire the-fcreoSt, vrhce-the rekson,1and 'eleyftj^jthe soul tfi tiu^t daringtto which noThing is impossible. His career was as short as it was dazzling O'Connell, worn out by years and labor, laid him down and died. The political machinery be had-xonstructed fell int« feeble' hands as^ ^rake to pieces.- Albo*^ the centinent of Europe tbe tpinds of men began to bestirred)by.ao angry douuoiotisness of! wrqna, and the people's wrath lay— smouldering like afire waiting for the breath that was to fan it into flame.'. .It came. France, dishonored by a monarch who bad dared to trifle with the instificis and prido of the French people, flew to arms End tramplerf'Uhrone and scepter under its feet. Poland, Hungary, Italy sprung up at tbe signal. All over Europe«eoong tbe people, long oppressed wont forth the.cry '/We will have no foreign masters. Our land is ours, and we will bavtf itfijrjoiiii 'own." And ^reland—the Poland of the sea—Ireland'the mcet wretohod of all: failing.in every attempt to obtain from tbe British Parliament compliance with her prayers, is it wonderful that sbe, too, dreamt that her hour of deliverance was at hand, and that she could wring from Britain, with the armed hand that national selfgovernment under which she had beeu once so happy The hour seemed propititious. An European war was imminent, and it was not likely that England could keep aloo*. The storm seemed gathering" fast. Iu Irvtland bold words hkd been spoken—it was time io put thejm to the test. Men began to ask, what will

Meagher do? He who grandly apostrophised "the sword," will he dare to try its metal now He did not shrink from the ordeal. He deemed himself in honor bptind—himself_to_toke for.-weal or.-for ftoSThe rtsks~Ee had ipvitod others to assume. He threw himself among the peo pie, ready to load or to follow as they pleased, going, forth to face fearful odds with*3 beirtMss iw if he thought there was merry-making before him and not thd harvest of death. Remember be hud nothing to gain and everything to lose-ah "honorable Jocial position, the prospect of wealth, the reputation of dis tingtfished ability—all tho advantages that give to youth sure promise of a bril liant and prosperous 'future. All these things that men most love he cast into the bialar.ee, and cbosq to ah (ire the (ate of the crushed and forlorn poople. But the strugglo was not to be. FrarieO-'stood still and looked on in apathy while the nations whom hor example had tired into revolt—tho nations- on whoso rndspend once her own safety depended—were one by one crushed and re-enslaved. Eng. land, fr«od from the danger of European war, st od alarmed and prepared. To the Irish people the odds against them seemed too heavy,. and tho means at their disposal too poor and weak. Tboy did not revolt 'no blffto was struck. Colder, perhaps wiser, counsels prevailed, and the opportunity, if it was one, went by for ever. The ,government, watchful and active, put forth tho arm of law. O'Brien Moagber, and others, were arrested, tried for high tr-aason, found guilty, and con demned to 'death. Thence once more spoke tho young orator, and this is what ho said: "My lords," heTaid, "it is my 'intention to say a few word^ only. I depire that the last act of a proceeding which has occupied, so much of tho public time shall be of short'duration." Nor have I the indeli cate wish to close the dreary ceremony of a State prosecution with a vain display of words. Did I fear that, hereafter, when I shall be no more, the country I have tried, to serve Would thmk..,iU- of .-mepl might, indeed, avail myself of this solemn moment to vindicate "my sentiments and my conduct. But I have no such fear The country will judge of those sentiments and that conduct in a light far different from that in which the jury by which have been convicted viewed them and by tho aountry, the. sentence which you ray lords, are about to pronounce, will be remembered only as the severe and sol emn attestation of my rectitude and truth Whatever be the language in which that sentence be spoken, I know that my fate will meet, with sympathy and that my r55'mb'ry"^ni be' hoooi-eaf Ta'speaking thus', ncc^sejno ngf. niy^lloidg, a£ .an indecorous presumption. To the efforts have made in a just and noble cauSe.I ascribe no yain importance, nor do clafta for those efforts any high regard But it so happens, and it will ever happen so, that they who have tried to servo their country, no matter how weak tho effort may have been, are sure to receive the thanks and the blessings of its people "With my country then, I leave mj mtrpbry, rty sentiments, my acts ^piVjudly feeling that they: require no. yindicatioa/rofti ti)d this, djjy. jurj* of my own countrymen, it is true, have found me guilty of the prime of whiqh X. stood indicted. For tfoia I entertain not the slightest feeling resentment towards them. Influenced as they must hate been hy the charge of tbe Lord Chief Jus tico, tnoy could have found no-other verdict. "WW of that charge? Any strong observations, I,- feol si.ncerjy, would ill beftt-the solemnity of this-scene but I would e»maetiyts8eechof yen, my lords, who preside on that bench, when the passiens and the prejudices of the bou have passed away, to appeal to your conscience, and pk of it, was jour charge as it ought to havo been, impartial and'indifferent between -.the subject and tho Crown.' ''My Lords, you may deem this language unbecoming in me, and perhaps it may seal my fate. But I am here to spealrthe-truth, wiisteveT 1t may Cost. I am hare to regfei nothing I have ever done—to rotract nothing I havo ever said. I am here to crave, with no lying lip, the life I consecrate to the liberty of my country. Far from it even here—here, whore the thief, ths libertine, the murder, er, have left their foot jjrinta in the dust^j *H®sTspof ^frttertrtho shadows 6f death surtMUHTine, and feom whioh 1 gee my early .grave in an. unannointed soil opened to' receive me—eyen here, encircled by ihesg terrors, I be- hope which has beckoned me to tbe perilous sea upon which I have been wrecked, still consoles, animates, enraptures me. No, I do not despair of my poor old country, her peace, her liberty, her glory. For that country, I

can do no more than bid her hope. To lift this island up—to make her a benefactor to humanity instead of being tho meanest beggar in the world—to restore to hot her native powers and her ancient c^st^ution—-thisJhas been my ambition

RRd

t*is ambition has been my crime.— Judged by the law of England, I know this crime entails the penalty- of death but tbo history gf Ireland explains this crime, and justi&at it. Judged by that history,

am no criminal—you (address

ing Mr. Donohue) are no criminal—I desire no punishment—we deserve no punishmant. Judged by that history, the treason of which I stand convicted, loses, all its guiit, is santtified as a dutv, will be.ennobled as a sacrifice. "WUi these sentithfenls, lord, I a*r»it the sentence of the Oouit. Having

I offer to that couatrY. a».«e love I bear her,* and the "EfircerityTWitl which I thought, and Bpoke-, ana Straggled for her freedom—the life ot a young heart, and with that life, all the hopes, the honors, the endearments o( a haff^r and an 'honorable home." Pronounce, then, my lords, the sentence which the law directs:—Isa prepare4 .tohwir ft. .1 trust I shall be "prepared to meet its execution. I hope to he able, with a pure heart and perfect composure, to a before a higher tribunal—a ttibunai w! a Judge of infinite goodnen. as well as ol justice, will preside, and where, my lords, many—many of the judgments of this world will be reversed."

Remember, he then thought that sp was to be his lint. These Words he ut ed, looking death in the eye. Tell mi have you ever known, ef any man that, in such a trying hour, utteredja momgfiis lant, noble, dignified -protest? TMnk fif this, you, if there be any who deem th"K$ we who knew the man loved him abotve his deserts you who knew hhn only his faults, and who may ndw be disposj to magnify them and to belittlaVhis vwtues, fancy yourselves, if you can dare to fancy it, in such a strait, and tell metf you could have raised your souls E? 48 grand an eminence as his who that day set the pnaoner above, the ja who tried him, and digaifiedl felon's dock, till it became, in thp eyes of the world, a temple of freedom.^ You know how the sentence of death was commuted, not mitigated to that Of banishment for life in a penal settlemtent, and Meagher was sent to spend, the ran of his days, a convict among convicts, in Van Dieman's Land Death seemed better death in .the island he loved, «r&i his last look resting on Irish soil, oil Irish hill and sky: 'Buito live and s^q his carser closed at ^twenty-five to hear from afar the great sea of life surgitfg around, and never to have a venture oti' the tide to see the great game of life played by other bands, and he to stand by inactive and only to watch and mark the game, to rot out a stagnant existence, to die a living death this was hard to bear, and it seemed to be all his future.—

But what man can casl^us own horo-, scope, or predict 'o-day what shall befall him to-morrow? Meagher left Irish hearts and Irish love behind him in Ireland, but to find them watching and waiting for him at the antipodes. For, let me tell you, all over the earth, North and South, East and "West, wherever you may wander, you shall scarcoly find a spot bo remote or desolate that an Irishman who loves Ireland, and whom Ire« land loves, will not find there a welcome and a friend. In Van Dieman's Land, Meagher found true and faithful friends. He placed himself in their hands. They planned his escape. It was successful, and in 1852, he set foot.pn American soil, once more a freeman. You all remember what an outburst of enthusiasm, with aD sorts of men, welcomed him to this Ber public. It was among the halycon days of America. Theio was nothing to disturb, distract, or embitter men's thoughts. In an unchecked career of peace, pros* ptrity and honor, the great Republic, secure and incredulous of danger, moved proudly along-Hor large heart overflowed with benevolence and hospitality and to havo striven and suffered for a people's liberty was a sure passport to men's hoibet and hearts. Tho desire to hear the young orator was universal Meagher'for a time preferred silonce and privacy but in end'thft«popular wish prevailed, began a series of lectures which, with other literary labors, became his chief ook cupation for some years. Ho was everywhere successful, and sustained his great reputation. But those that knfew him best saw that he was altered, that the dis* asters which he had undergone had hurt him, that some of his early fire had beeri quenched, and that his eloquence had lost tho vigor which had bceii its chief charm in Ireland. His was a mind that needed the inspiration of a great purposo. Tha( to which he had devoted hia early effort* was gonr, and none other came to supply its place. But events in America were shifting fast. The strife of factions, in whose healthy action free societies must always find their surest guarantee of safety, was becoming hitter and sectional.— Wild, reckless, angry and wicked threats and challenges were made and,answered, and a fatal madness spread over tbe land. There were some who .spoke words of warning, of reconciliation and peace. It was too late. The cloud spread and darkened all the horizon, and tbe storm broke in thunder. You remember well how, on the first breaking out of the civil war, when the first shot was fired on the nft? tional flag, the great mass of the people of Irish race on this Continent took sides with the legally organised government'of the United States. The Sixty-ninth Regiment of the New York State Militia was among the first to hurry to the defense of Washington. With ft Went Thomas Francis Meagher, in Command of a com pany which he had organized. His was no factious motiye. He knew little of parties or their puposes. He bad no 0nkm3 Vetting toward the South. He believed that the integrity of the Union was endangered and that by a speedy display ofljforde the fatal project might be checkea in.time and he went forth to imperil his life for the sake of the home of his adoption, with as pure a purpose, as cheerful a heart, as that with which he had faced the rebel's doom for the salvation of the land of his birth. One other though, too, lay near his heart—a thought which quickened the pulse of ever IrishmanHhatmarched then under the starry flag, that sang to him at the camp fires, and whispered to hith sb he paced tbe sentinel's lonely rpuodi. -It|waa this, that in tbe course of the civil war America might learn, what Irish instinct well knew, tbe jealousy with which the governing classos in Britain ever look on her revolted colonies, and- that our war might be ended by the armies of a reunited North and Southimarching side by side under tbe old flag against the seeming friend but real foe of the Republic. ,the subtle, wily, persistent conspirator against all national repose or freedom or progress all over the earth, save her own—Great Britain. You know the battle of Bull Run and how all through that disastrous day Meagher bore himself with conspicuous allanlry. He returned to Now York,and his efforts organized tho Irish Brigade of which he became the commanding officer The rest of the story should not be told by mu. I see many a man around me, who followed all the fortunes of that gallant corps, and who will carry the consciousness of his share in its achievements as his proudest memory to his grave. It was the old story. Never did Clare, or Dillon, or Sarsfleld more gallantly lead gallant men on Landon. or Cremona, or Fontenoy, than did Meagher, when Be cheered on the boys of his Irish Brigade at Fair Oiks, Malvern Hill, Antietam, or whta at Fredertcksburgh ho obeyed the fatal order that doomed the Irish Brigade to hopeless slaughter in the attack on Marye's Heights. Aye! be proud of the Irish Brigade. Be proud of him who led it. Preserve his memory, ye who served with him in those days of fire and death. Three thousand men were in that Brigade when it went into the war five hundred were all that were left it. Yet it never disobeyed an order, never lost a flag never lost hope or heart, or cheerfulness! "It fought as it revelled, fast, fiery, and true," facing danger with a smile, laughing at fatigue and hardship, and breasting the red surges of war with a cheer as g*yand ringing as other men utter when tbey have won a victory, in soma athletic gai 'A somewhat irrtguiar natT

Bat I must hurry to a close. The Irish Brigade, in fact, ceased to exist It was reduced to a battalion of a few hundred men. In February, 1863, Gen. Meagher wrote to ttie Secretary of War, asAing that it might be sent home to recruit its ranks, as had,been,done by.othfr command^. The request was demed and 'after the battle of Chancellonville, Gen. Meagher resigned hiscoQunand. His farewell address to his comrades, the remnant of the Brigade, contains this passage, which I canriot ftohear to read: "Sharing with thehumblest soldier freely atnd heartily all the hardships and dangers of the battle field—never having ordered an advance that 1 did not take the lead mxself-I thank God that, I havo been' sparat to dtf justioe to ''those* 'Whose heroisdi deserves from me a grateful comniemofatlon and that I have been preserved to bring comfort to those who have lost fathers, husbands and brothers iif the soldier^ who have fallen for a noble government under the groen flag.—

My life has been0®"varied one,' and I have passed through many distracting scenes. But never has the river that flowed beside my cradle, never have the mountains that'oVeflooked the paths of njy childhood never have the old walls that claimed the curiosity and research of maturer diyi/been' effaced from my memory. As at first—as in uature tho beautiful and glorious picture is indelible. Not less'Vi*i& pet less'^ineffaceable, will be the I'ecOllections of my companionship with the Irish Brigade in the service of the United States.. The graves of many hiindreds of brave and devoted soldiers, who went to death with all the radiance ancLenthusiasm of the noblest chivalry, are so many guarantees and pledges that, as long as there remains one officer or soldier of the Irish Brigade, so long as there shall be found for him, for his family and little ohes, if any. there be, a de voted friend in

"THOMAS FRANCIS MEAGHER." He wasg»n»W9red by resolutions ex pres8ive o^corifiilence and affection from all the officers and men of the Brigade. So closed his career as a soldier, and his connection withj that corps, whose repu tat ion, with that of the Irish Legion, its twin brother in heroism, will live in every authentic memorial of the civil war, past and gone, I trust, forever. The last yesrs of his life were spent in the Territory of Montana, of which he was Secretary and acting Governor at the time of his death. He died in the service df the United States, and in the performance of his duty. On his last hours there rests no stain or reproach. After a day of hard labor he sought a night of repose. An old steamboat, moored to the shorg, afforded him a place wherein to sleep. This account of his death which now I ropd to you is authentic and from a source in all respects reliable: "He was at Fort Benton, waiting for thS arms the government sent up. He arrived thereon the 1st of July, having ridden thirty miles on horseback in the hot sun that day. He spientthaafternoon in conversation and letter-writing, and retired early to his berth on board the steamboat G. A. Thompson. There was no railing on the guards opposite his stateroom door, it having been broken off in some way. About ten o'clock at night he Went on the guards. Hete^ It is Supposed, he stumbled on .a, coil of rope, lost his balance, and was precipitated over the side of the boat. The river is greatly swollen, and the current is bo strong that the best swimmer has no chance in it Jt is fetated that he called for help, when tho deck bands ran with their lights and saw him floating away. Thero was no boat ready. Everything appears to havo been confusion and excitement. I have received a charming letter that he wrote pie, late^hat afternoon (his last on earth), telling mo that He'hoped to start for home by the last of the week. A gentleman who was in his company for over an hour late-. the afternoon, just before the accident occurred, has informme of moat uf the circumstances of his last hours in this life,'as I state them to you." R£

So he died. "Would that he had died on the battlefield." I think I hear some friend say, "Would that ho had fallen there,, with .the flag he loved waving over him,and theahouts of triumph ringing in his'e4jf87 w6ufd that his grave were on some Irish hill-side, with the green ^urf above him." No God knows best how, anawhere, and when we are to die. His will be done.! But Meagher has bequeathed his memory to us to guard it and Bave it from evil tongues that respect not the majesty of death.
