BARRINGTONS RISE AND FALL OF THE IRISH NATION. — The Messrs. Sadler, 58 Gold st., have re-published, very handsomely, the celebrated and excellent work whose title we give above. To the friends of Repeal it will be a welcome offering, and to all parties it will be found to afford a variety of information in regard to Ireland, her claims, her wrongs, and her deprivations.
