At this moment, every thing here is rumour, eonfuhon, hope, and fear—ln Parliament there is in.

You and I have 4ten refl.dol upon this fubjedt ; but I was then unacquainted with the pride of the great and the Irifery of the people. I conceived that benevolence w.:a their chlrader, and that they cshiNted !inducts and indulgence to the other clans.; that all its their reipeeltive remakes* enjoyed happi ne s, and p;rtkipated equally In the advantages of a free cad'. union ; and that while the one was luxurious, the other was coos tent. But I was grofsly deceived. The man who has an income of only 100 l a year pays 31. to the State ; and the man who has 40,c00l gives only aoool. So that the one has 951. left, and the other 38,0001 !!! Ye tif the man worth 931. mentions his poverty and the wretchednefs of his half Rarving children, the man of 40,c001. will tell him that he nould m t :ramble on that account, and that whets the State i* in danger. be lhould faerince every thing, paying no attention to the cries and tears of his family. In &art, there is' no eonfideration of the poor matt, who is regarded as the property of the rich, born for the visit of employments, and deftined by nature to he a (Love. You will not be furprized to leans, that the parode which \drainers and their creatures make oldie zeal which imitators all claffes in the common eaufe, and thtk determined re folution to march againft the enemy, is nothing more than mere oftemation. The fpirit of the Coantry, at the general call upon it, has not yet manifefted Idctf ; but, tinkle I am deceived, when it don manifclt ittelf, it will be not 10 aid, but to refift the Go vernment. " The Army of Referee, and the Levy in Mafa, are not to aft. according to law, until they receive a fecund (mutant. It is then we dull be ambled to judge how far this plan will be predicable; and how it will accord with the fentimenta of the Nation. " In Ireland, the people are ripe for revolt ; their grievances urge them to this drc.ulful enterprise. Thefe grievances have been amply detailed in a late pubhcatian, written by Mr. Never holm, a Member of the lett kith Parliament, and they have been recently tli;cuffed in Parliament by Colonel Ilutehinfun. Thofe two Perfousges, with a manly firmi.efs, which does them the higheft honour, have implored the Adminiltration to redrefs their grierances, and pointed nut the means. Give the frifh,' (aid th, y, what you foletnnly promifed them before the Union—that which contributed to the accomplifhment of the Union. Give them freedom, and you will find them the belt fuhkets under his NlA:idly. But if you do not, inturredlion will follow infurreditio, until the whole Empire is chat( nto its very balls.' No attention, however, has been paid to this honourable appeal, this awful warn ing ; and notwithttanding the deftsuil ion with which we are me naced by an eternal enemy, the . . . abfolutely refutes to evert internal convulGon by yiekling to what Minilters had pro 'anted to perform. A fatality attends us ; Goo only knows how lung this win laft. I can (y little to you of the affairs of India. The hoftlle aps pcarances in that part of the world have corifiderahly elepriffed the Funds, and as - far as I can leapt, the Court of Dircetors are very much d (Unified with Lord Welleflcy. Should the good fortune of his Lordfhip ever abandon him &mid he exicrience the flight ed check, be will fall from his kat of fplendour, never more to rife. I can confidently alfure you, that the flighteft failure in the molt in figuificant enterp. ire will be (WC:lent to di Itroy his popu larity, and to cover him with the fevered reproaches. I have this Milani karat, through a channel entitled to credit, that fears are entertained of Bosaparte meditating tome plans againft India, and that it Is apprehended, that the large force which he is colkaing in Italy, is deltined fur that emintry. If thife kart are well found ed, Literal regiments will be itnni,liatelj embarked to reinforce your army, and this will give the finifhing ftroke to the ruin of the Company, whole revenues arc already abforbcd.

The rage of tittle two lath againft you for having ventured to animadvert, and even tranfinit your tentons on their government, renJer6d them your irreeoncil.ir.e enemies.
