Mr. O'Connell, at the last meeting of the Irish Repeal Association, said he intended to propose that there should be a National Convention held in the city of Kilkenny during the summer, in order that all the different letters and communications received from America might be fully and properly replied to on behalf of the entire Irish people. At that National Convention, the great question of negro slavery would not only be fully discussed, but the sentiments of the Irish people would be suitably embodied on that subject, in addresses to the citizens of America, replying to their various documents.—Globe.
