There was a fair attendance of ladies and gentlemen! i after 8 o'plook Sir Oeovge Grey: entered the room.and was received with ap plauses, those, present rising to. their' feet at tho same time. ..' . • ' (>i£>n.the .motion of Mr O'Meagher,' Sir George at once took the chaii-.and Mr Crofts; a.'ieSecre'tary read i tho advertisement con-j veiling the meeting. . ;.!,.'..;;•,'. •' ■"'"Mf. "George Grey then rose ''• and '■' said ; Gentlemen, You'-alPare aware; ' that}' Vad ''Earl of Aberdeen presided .over' Tmland; as Lord Lieutenant, aridft think, "you Avo'also'perfectly well aware that whilst' < HeSvas'filling' that ollice he woti'the .esteem .^gdt'OfT^ °?> -1 may say> by tire/lamest iWm^vQ °f the of tlint'co'uritry. Was this so, that no one had an jßfrl'Word1to say of him. (Applause.) '• His ~fe\'erP?uent was perfectly impartial, per: --: Redely' hhmaiio, rind perfectly just.' He left Jjielaud with the regret of cUe inhabitants >tfi&'ebrV 'shown by most extraordinary de • ■' monstrationsj and since that time in [f&l&f* part of the Empire that he has ~ .visited he has been thanked 'fcyffafSfr bodies of people there for the hiunainty, .intelligence, and beneiiconco !,!Bf"Ms* !lG6yeriifflent whilst he 'was Lord *]M&it;erta, rit; of Ireland. (Applause.) Now it is proposed by those who are in favour of f/pr^eiiftng an address' to ■ Lord Aberdeen ■.tli'ttti :we'! should follow the example of »'atiru reiloK>> -colonists in other parts of the.

That you may -ong bo spared lp tultll thchign and .honourable i-;tlties to which we fot-1 assured you will yet bo calloil in tho art ministration o£ the Government of the British Empire, and that you and your estimable wife, who h*we promoted the happlnoss of so many millions.may yourselves long enjoy the happi ness you have so. well deserved, is the curliest prayer of your obedient servants Mr Crofts seconded the resolution, which was put and carried unanimously. Dr. Erson suggested that it would ho a gracious act to jircsent a book of New Zea land ioms to the Countess of Aberdeen. Mr Crofts explained that Mrs Dully and Miss Shanaghari, who were present, had already taketi the initiative in this cliiec tipn. 'Mr'Duncan woiild have liked to have seen an immense assemblage of Englishmen and Scotchmen, as well as of Irishmen. Every opportunity- should be taken to purge' ourselves of the dishonour result ing from 'tho Marquis of Salisbury's treatment of. Ireland. In conclusion the gentleman proposed a hearty vote of thanks to Sir George Grey for his kindness in pro skiing at the meeting. The vote was seconded by I\lr F. Jcune and passed with acclamation, followed by three cheers for Sir George Grey. Sir George Hrey on Muisic Enlc. Sir George Grey : Lnclies and Gentlemen, —I thank you very sincerely for the compli ment you have paid me. And now just let me.say a few words, more to you In the resolution which was carried at your last meeting I saw that it was pointed out that thoso who* were in favour of Homo Rule should specially join in the pro posed-address. Well, now, I should like to tell you: that in IS6S I was the first man to advocate Home Rule for Ire land. (Loud applause.) Some of the Irish papers that were started at that time for the same purpose felt the weight of very stringent law's, which wore suddenly passed, and which almost led to the- suppression of the press in It-eland. At any rate, the result was that these papers had to be printed in Loudon, and then sent over to Ireland for circulation. One of these, called the " Leader," was avowedly started to support the views 11 well put forward. (Applause.) Therefore I, above all men, feci fully .committed to support this movement. (Renewed applause.) Let mo tell you this: : I believed that it was to bo accomplished entirely by the good sense of the Empire. I did not look only to Great Britain, but I believed that tho sym pathy of the Empire would bo in favour of a law of that kind being passed, and with tho British public thoroughly underfetandirig that the distant parts of the Empire were sympathising 111 a movement of that kind. I was sure that it would produce a very great effect on Great • Britain itself. From tho very first moment, I folt that, if the law passed*it would bo in that Way. 'I never doubted that it would become the law of the land (applause); and I feel now just as confident as I did then that in a very short time Homo Rule will be granted; to Ireland. (Loud applause.) Sir George Grey yiroceeded to show that the reform would be most surely and speedily achieved by constitutional methods, being confident.of ultimate success. "

In Duty Bound.
