On Sunday last, 15.000 persons in Dublin attended the funeral of Mr. Denis Duggan, an Irish patriot, who bad suffered for his country. Mr. Duggan was one of " the '66 men " who were transported to Western Australia in the convict ship Hougoumont. He was a quiet, brave man, well educated and able. He had been a school-teacher before his arrest. Ireland tenderly mourns the loss of the eons who were true to her in the trial. Their gravestones are the landmarks of the national cause and the tablets that speak to the young generation. — Pilot, Sept. 20.
