We are able to gather the following items from our exchanges. IRELAND. At Conciliatory Hall, Nov. 13, Mr. Daniel O'Connell saidthere was one point to which he wished to cali the tittention of the country, and that was the fact, that they had always looked for repeal by peaceable means,and that the principie of his public life had been that the greatest political ameliorations could only be obtainedljy peaceable means. He was the apostle of that new sect of politicians who condemned all changes effected by force, and which, although they might destroy one grievance, were sure to créate many. There was scarcely on record an instance of success by such means that did not termínate eventually in despotism and anarchy. Since he had entered the hall he heard that a man, who had been in America, was last night preaching sedition in the streets, and that a policeman in colored clothes, took him into custody. He was obliged to that policeman, and he sincerely hoped that the prisoner would be punished for the crime laid to his charge. Sedition or violenceof any kind was injurious to every person at present included in the government prosecutions, for nothing would tend more to prejudice the minds of the jury who would trv them.Mr. O'Connell then moved the adoption of a printed address urging upon the people of Ireland the strictest observance of peace, law and order. The following are its concluding paragraphs, and embrace the spirit of the whole address: "Attend to me - if there be during the trials the slightest outbreak of violence in any parish, it will be my duty immediately to abandon the repeal cause, and forsake a people who at such a critical period as the present would not follow the advice I so earnestly give them. Be therefore calm, quiet, tranquil,peaceful,. loyal. Viólate no law of man - obey with devout reverence the law of God. Follow my counsel, and you thereby will serve the cause, and gratify the heart of your devoted friend, Daniel O'Connell.At the repeal association, November 8, Mr. Daniel O'Connell, jr., read the draught of an address to the Queen, to be presented by each parish in Ireland; it protested against the military array by whlch the Clontarf proclamation was supported, as neëdless to insure obedience; inferred that the disposition of the Irish people had been misrepresented to the Queen; pointed to the peaceable conduct of large meetings; abstained from complaining the right to meet had been violated, but remarked that troops had been prepared to attack persons congregated "in utter ignorance of the almost nocturnal proclamation;" adding, "yetsuch was the respect for the law, that very many thousands of people dispersed on the mere rumor that the meeting had been made illegal by an act of almost midnight legislation!" The address was adopted. The Orangemen at the North of Ireland are re-organizing their society, but without secret passwords, tests, or other signs which have been pronounced illegal. The re-organization is said to be rapidly extending. MEXICO.The reported abdication of Santa Anna turns out to be only a temporary resignation of his actual administrative duties. which he has placed in the hands of a President ad interim.
