Sit—ln my left I informed you that a meeting of Catholics was held in this city, for the purpofe of confidering the expediency of bringing their political flaims before Parliament, and that without any thing particular having been dune, the meeting adjourned to the following Saturday. The adjournment was accordingly held on Saturday lA, at the houfe of Mr. James Ryan, merchant ; the Earl of FINGAL, as on the day before, was in the Chair ; the meeting was more nutnerouay attended, and feveral perfons fpoie, as I underftand, in favour of a petition to Parliament, and among thefe Mr. Ryan was the principal. Lord FINGAL was decidedly againft the Catholics putting themfelves forward in the bufinefis but rather to leave it to the difcretion and liberality of his Majelly's Minifters, and his Lordfhip's opi nion had the influence of preventing any decifive ac tion, or any refolution for that day ; and the meeting was again adjourned for a fortnight. There is no man of good fenfe and moderation who mull not applaud the Earl of FINGAL'S =duff in this affair. It proves him, what no one who knows him could ever doubt, a true friend to his Sovereign and his Country. Otnellions of this nature, and contells for privileges (wffich GOD knows are but a feather in the fcale), would come forward with a very bad grace at fuch a moment as the prefent. When the enemy is at the door is not precifely the time for any portion of fociety to be making conditions of defence, or taking, what would feem, an advantage of pu blic ensbarradinent- Not that 1 would have it inferred that any thing that remains of coußitutional privls lege fhould not be given to the Catholic Body. It ought ; they have a right to it, and it is neither jug nor politic to withhold it. But I muff repeat, what I Paid before, that the great bulk of the frith Cads°• lies neither know, nor care one ftraw about thefe ' meetings of a few Catholic merchants in Dubljn, or about the obje& of them : And from the refult of thole meetings, and from the circumfiance of general apathy in the Catholic Body, a difeuffion of Catholic claims in Parliament muff evidently be a faffious pro* cedure. linters it originate with the Government it felf. Nu other party is invited to throw in the apple of difeord ; the fee will not thank them,; the pub lie at large, diferiminsting between oppofition and patriotifm, fhould mask fuch conduit with deferred reprobation. Every man here, anxious for the exißence of Eu ropean civilization, feels deferred horror at the barbarous arrea of our Minifter at Hamburgh s. but there wasted to new inflame to lbew that, with the Uturper of the Throne of the Bouasons, and the Proarater of French liberty, every queßion is that of power; and right is obliterated from his code of laws, dißindt or national.

The company were all in full view, and the deer continued in fall fpeed for a confiderable time, and on his coming to a very large bog. he gave a leap, but did not clear it, and felfin, and he could not get out ; the hounds purfued him into the bog. and got upon him, and feized him, which ended the day's (port.

He finifhed the diflance at 33 minutes pall three in the afternoon, 27 minutes lets than the limited time ; as minutes were expended in refrefhing himfelf, at a cottage, whither he went five times, which lengthened his walk :so yards.
