to with Christian patience—­with resignation to the will of God—­(hear, hear)—­with modest, yet proud and firm adherence to principle (cheers).  They showed their love to Ireland and their fear of God from the first to the last (cheers).  It is vain for me to attempt to detain you with many words upon this matter.  I will say this, that all who are here do not approve of the schemes for the relief of Ireland that these men were supposed to have contemplated; but all who love Ireland, all generous, Christian men, and women, and children of Ireland—­all the children growing up to be men and women of Ireland (hear, hear)—­all those feel an intense sympathy, an intense love for the memories of these three men whom England has murdered in form of law by way of striking terror into her Irish subjects.  Fellow-countrymen, it is idle almost for me to persist in addressing weak words of mine to you—­for your presence here to-day—­your demeanour all through—­the solemn conduct of the vast multitude assembled directly under the terrorism of a hostile government—­say more than the words of the greatest orator—­more than the words of a Meagher could say for you (cheers).  You have behaved yourselves all through this day with most admirable spirit as good Irishmen and women—­as good boys and girls of holy Ireland ought to be (cheers), and I am sure you will behave so to the end (cries of yes, yes).  This demonstration is mainly one of mourning for the fate of these three good Irishmen (cheers), but fellow-countrymen, and women, and boys, and girls, it is also one of protest and indignation against the conduct of our rulers (hear, hear, and cheers) Your attendance here to-day is a sufficient protest.  Your orderly behaviour—­your good temper all through this wretched weather—­your attendance here in such vast numbers for such a purpose—­avowedly and in the face of the terrorism of the government, which falls most directly upon the metropolis—­that is enough for protest.  You in your multitudes, men, women, and children, have to-day made that protest.  Your conduct has been admirable for patience, for good nature, for fine spirit, for solemn sense of that great duty you were resolved to do.  You will return home with the same good order and inoffensiveness.  You will join with me now in repeating the prayer of the three martyrs whom we mourn—­’God save Ireland!’ And all of you, men, women, and boys and girls that are to be men and women of holy Ireland, will ever keep the sentiment of that prayer in your heart of hearts.”  Mr. Martin concluded amid enthusiastic cheering.

At the conclusion of his address, Mr. Martin, accompanied by a large body of the processionists, proceeded to the cemetery, where Mr. Martin visited the grave of Terence Bellew M’Manus.  The crowds walked around the grave as a mark of respect for the memory of M’Manus.  Mr. Martin left the cemetery soon after, end went to his carriage; the people gathered about him and thanked him,
