The public are weary of hearing it explained that these names were not challenged as Catholics, but as Repealers. Some persons have gone so far as to maintain that even Repealers ought not to have been challenged. This, however, has been found rather too strong a doctrine for the House of Commons to have asked for a verdict of guilty from men glorying in the very name which expresses the offence.

Among those present, was a friend of mine named Thomson, who was rather given to be cynical in his remarks, and was besides addicted to the study of phrenology. He declared that for his part he was not so apprehensive concerning me on account of the pikes of the Repealers as of the darts of Cupid. "Beware," said he, "of the Irish ladies.

Were there reason to suppose them authorized by the Repealers, there would be still higher argument for what we are going to say. But under any circumstances, we agree with the opinion expressed dispassionately and seasonably by the Times newspaper that judgment must be executed in this case.

But it would be published "from Dan to Beersheba" that it had received a fair trial and, after being "weighed in the balance and found wanting," had been spurned from the county with contumely by the intelligent electors. "I told you it would never succeed," said Bottlesby to Mr. Gurney, just after the repealers had gained their victory. "The fact is, Mr.

We can, and ought to, carry the repeal only in the total absence of offence against the laws of man or crime in the sight of God. The best revolution which was ever effected could not be worth one drop of human blood."

Now, Sam, who supported the Whigs?" "Why, let me see; a few of the lords, a few of the gentry, the repealers, the manufacturin' folks, the independents, the baptists, the dissentin' Scotch, the socialists, the radicals, the discontented, and most of the lower orders, and so on." "Well, who supported the Tories?"

Such were the tenets of the Repealers. And O'Connell and his counsel, their base artifices, falsehoods, delays, and unprofessional proceedings, were declared by the Saxon party to be equally abominable. The term probably comes from the legal term "to traverse," which is to deny the charges against one in a common law proceeding.

In that country my noble kinsman and Lord Napier are what we term in the language of this country 'Repealers'. They are all for what they call a native and independent parliament in Sicily, just as the Repealers are for a native and independent Parliament in College Green. This intelligence was received in London about the 4th or 5th of May.
