The following call haa been issued 'or a masa meeting to bo held at lark's Ilall Wednesday evening , Dec. 15th , at 7:30o'clock : Noyer since the ruthless invasion of Ireland by the English has such a re markable crisis arisen , as at present jxiats. It is the organised moral 'orco of a martyr nation , whose ally is ; ho unqualified sympathy of the civi lized world , in antagonism to the most heartless tyranny , the most despotic liws , and the most relentless system i > f landlordism that ever cursed the human rac& . In thh emergency , we who enjoy freedom , and all the blessings which flow from a republican form of gov ernment , must not forget our duty to the land of our birth. Our love for and alleftlanCa to our native land have been our chief characteristics. Your duty ia plain. Ireland stretches foitn her hands in , let us hope , a last ap peal. The cohorts of absolutism have tried to force her into premature war , but for the first time they have failed ; and as a Isst desperate effort they have sought to bring the most -prominent Irish leaders before the bar of so- called justice , to answer charges of which the whole world knows they are innocent. We must sid them. We must see to it that these men get a fair trial. We must employ the most eminent counsel to defend them. To do tv-ia all that ia required is to contribute each a littlo. Every Irishman in the United States can dor something , and not to do his share , is to.shoihimself unworthy of brotherhood in the gr.ind cause fif liborj.y. Th i moral waif are will RO on. England will have to Ettb- mit To the dictates of reason , and to the well-merited scorn of manlind , and acquiesce to a principle whichsho haa tried often to wipe out of existence by blood and carnage , namely "Ira- land for the Irish. " Fellow citiaena of Irish birth and lineage this appeal is made to you with great confidence. Your native land , its history , its martyrs , its associations , its steadiest adhereilco to aspirations for liberty , _ even in its darkest hour of persecution all sug gest in the moat eloquent language that we muat do our duty now. od save Ireland !

Some time ago we made a mention of the removal of Dr. Chambers , vet erinary surgeon , to his new location- ; the "Blue Barn , " on Sixteenth street. Previous to that time the Doctor was in partnership with Dr. Ayerp , and has for a number of years been well and favorably known to our citizens. D u'r- ing the latb trouble with the epizootic the unbounded success met with by Dr. Chambers has given him the repn- 'tation of being the veterinary surgeon of tlie west , a title he well deserves.
