~~~ 1 liE LIND. REPEAL OF TIM ONION. jo tha Right Ron. Ilsys<Y 014177411, OM of as Representa tives of the Ceti of Dublin. in Par:lament. INTL address you, Sir, in the name of your v CONSTITUENTS, the FREEMEN and FREE NOLDERS of the CITY of DUBLIN, convened at t,f ROYAL EXCHANGE, oa the UM of Sept. fur the purpose of humbly inbroittiag to his Majesty, and to Parliament, tium fur the REPEAL of the UNION. These Petitiqtp exhibit a feeble outline of the ruinous conic quinces of that treasure; criesequenecs which yotsforesaw with ISe prophetic wisdom of a Statesman, and wig& yoq charm* Arixed with that sarpaszing euergY of eloquence, and that un staatittd ardour of patriotism, which have distinguished your political career, from the period at which you gave a free Con !Williams to Ireland, to the unhappy Odle, when that Camillo tion sunk beneath the united efforts of Despotism and Fraud. Your Constituents, Sir, implicitly cu tiding in that integrity which hasnever been questioned, in that spirit which has 'sit Trequtntly been proved, in that patriotism which bas idea, tilled your nama with that of your Country, doubt not that you will exert, in her behalf, those transce&tdant talents by which you obtained so much for her liberty, and to which, aided by the Representation ama the People a Ireland, she still looks for the re-establishment of her lii;;hts. fly the destruction of tln•se Rights, by the annihilation of her Parliament, she hat heel, reduced to the afflictions of op ores:Abe nod of poverty. Despoiled of her local Legislature, deprived pf her resident nobles and Gentry, she does not yet► however, feel debility; nor will she, while she has such an ad vocate as Henry Grattan, yield to the suggestions of despair. Your Constituents, Sir, fed, in common with the Irish People, that the melancholy effects of the Union are most alarming and dangerous, not ouiy to the internal safety of Ireland, but to the strength and interest. of the Empire, serving, as they do, to encourage the common enemy in his design of subverting the 'Constitution, awl of subjugating the people of these J.lands. To a Repeal, then, of that Fatal Measure, they look for a relief from their pre,ero sufferings, and fur a protection from those more dreadful evils, by which they are menaced. Your Ooitstkuents therefore, sir, feel justified in the hope, that when their Petition is considered by their most gracious Son relgo, hi; Majesty's parental affection will induce him to at tend to their prayers. They also feel confident that when the Representatives of Great Britain have the true cause of Irish Grievarres, fairly and fully stated to them, they will sympa thize with their fellow-subjects, and feel this incontrovertible truth, that by whatever right the People of England enjoy a free and local Legislature, by the same Right the People of Ireland are justifiable inelaiming a regeucrationof their waive Parlianteut, under the aattiority of which alone they ran feel themselves safe, happy, or free.—Your Constituents are per suaded, that such a re-establishment of a national Constitution, is the only means by which Commerce ems be revived, or that the cheerful Coutrihutions of the People to the payment of Tales, for the supportof the honour and safety of the Empire, coo be permanently secured. * Signed by Order, FREDERICK W.

No news from our Army in Portugal has yet transpired ; but it is said, Government arc in pos. session of more recent awnings than the public have yet seen. We this morning received German Papers, from which we have given the principal news they con. fain. Letters from Bremen to the 4th instant, are also received.—These letters notice the prevalence of a report iu that part of the Continent, the purport of which is, that the kingdom of Poland is to be immediately restored, and that RERTIIIER is io be at the head of the revived Monarchy. It is not at all improbable that some project of tliis kind may be in agitation. The commercial restrictions, according tq these letters, so far from being in the least degree re laxed, arc, in consequence of orders from Paris, enforced with increased rigour. M. Buzor, the French Consul at Stettin, was recalled on a charge of having afforded too many facilities to maritime trade, in contravention of the Continental system. A guard of French curassiers was posted at the gates of Lunenburgh, the merchandize all declared in a state of sequestration, and no goodtgillowed to be sent out of the town. The Packhojf at Magde burg was scaled up by order of the King; of Wxsx esti ma. The merchants at Frankfurt were thrown into great alarm by an intimation, that they would be expected to pay ailuTy of 40 per cent. on all co. lonial produce deposited in their warehouses ; and this without regard to any imposts that it might have paid in traiiiilu. It was reported that the late King of Sw EDEN had reached the Russian territories, and wAs.proceeding to solicit the protection of h i s lasPeaw.. MAJESTY at St. Putersburgh. Different notions scan .to bo.mitertained on the Continent respecting the dispositiatt of BowaraßTE to the United States from those that prevail in this country. It was rumoured at Bretneb that he had agreed to make the Americans the carriers of Eq. rope, and that all vessels under that flag were to be admitted into the ports of France, though they might even be denationalked by submitting to being' overhauled by a British cruiser. This report is 'not corroborated by letters of the 29th nit. received lately from France, which mate that no neutral trade whatever will be allowed with. France during the war with England. The following article appears in as Freida Pa. pers, dated Frankfurt, Sept. 19 : • " Oar Michaelmas Fair draws near a closet at least the principal transactions are finished, and a greet number of strangers, who had lived here some time, have quitted us. It may be mid, that in the most important articles this thir has been a very good one. The french have deer much business in silks and leather, the prices of which were considerably raised. They have also sold a great deal of cloths, chintzes, and muslim. The Swiss muslitss came also to a good market I as did likewise the produce of the Saxon looms. English merchandize has long ceased to poison our market. Besides, the rigorous mea sures taken on the coastal° prevent its latcullactiaa. are such, that it has mow become impossible." I •;. This paragraph would, if this country would listen to it, speak to its inhabitants with an elo. quest tongue. It would raise the cry of NAGE, in every quarter. If the war continue much longer, not even PEAcE will or can save us. The Conti. neat is learning sods Without English inerchandize ; and the task, although it was at first of some diffi. eulty, may be accomplished. Our manufacturers were the manufacturers fur more than. half the hsiorld ; now they manufacture for no place, in filet, but these Realms themselves, and their depen. dencies. France is manufacturing fur Germany, ihd Switzerland is doing the 'mac thing. Through the medium of such great marts as Praukfort, tho merchandize of France, and of such nations as she favours, Will be distributed over the Continent. The baton loofas are at work, and, the cheerful sound tejOires the labourer's hart—hut the English loom is Silent, and its occupiai sits over his craving cell. with despair ! These is tso said to go to the Bullion Conntattec, or to any' one, to know why r we have so little of the precious metals—there is no 'stied to call in men learned in the affairs of trade, to know why' we have such digress in. the .City,l such distress in our manufacturing towns—that ar..l tide from Frankton tells the whole secret—yowl have list your trade—other manufacturers, and Whitt. I , merchants supply your' place, and your DULA PICEA Which you drew from . the.Ciontinent, no longer flow` its upon yod. HOW can you have Bullion, when thk . , tole moans/of getting R (by such a<county soyouri' . J ~. ~ •:‘ • is). la thrown arooy How can you have anything but commercial disasters in your cities and towns, when your• employment is gone, and your profita. ble trade is fled ? Go to no ,committees, to no learned traders, or political writers, to know the cause of your commercial miseries. Go to the Throne, and say—Ministers aro the cause, war is the cause, this system of ..Pstnr.asse's pride and oppression is the cause—relieve us from all of these, or we arc for ever undone ! The supporters of every wrong done by Eng. laud to foreign nations, of every injury and oppression committed on jnnoceut suferers here, these are calling fur another Jeatc.te, when his Majesty shall have completed the fiftieth year of his reign. Well I let us haves jubilee, whoever calls fur it, but let it be founded in reason ► and let it have means of moving every heart with jqy l'ElcE do not precede it, if revived commerce do nut be ono of Its forerunners, let, at least, the way of Peace be earnestly sought ; let us turn to. wards that path, that which alone can again let in this desired commerce ! Lot this be done, and eatery heart will have a,J pBI se; and an aged Monarch 'may hereafter (in the course of Ditine Providence) retire with men's blessings to tho grave I PEOPLE of Ewp• LAN'', if you would have your grievances redressed, Wyatt would have plenty once more cheerfully stray. ing over your land, go to your Monarch, and tell him how those grievances have arisen ► and show him hose Oen tyhas been banished—remove the veil which into. 'rested men have placed between him and you.—tell him yen wish for *Juntas, and that you will kneel to him,and bless him for it; and o•ill prostrate yourset ves before your MAKER, and beseech him to pour .down 1 blessings ou your Monarch's head ! Do this, and prosper you doubt what coursethe Sovereign will take ? Will you questiEsts what choice he will make between a JUBILEE in. deed given to his People, or a day of incalculable 'MOW ? . - _ We call the attention of our Readers to the Ad. dresses of the Aggregate Meeting of the Freemen and Freeholders of the City of Dublin to their Re presentatives, Mr. GRATTArs and Mr. Straw, re questing those Gentlemen to present and support their Petiiions to his M —AJIISTy and to Parliament, praying for a Reeeat, of the UNION, together with the respective Answers to these Addresses, inserted in a preceding column. They will be found extremely interesting, The Irish are ever elo quent on any subject that touches their warm af. factions ; and Dublin, iu this case, has not de. parted (ruin the national character. 'Tit ROM sentativorof the City of Dublin respectively„ mist their support to the Petitions. T.lea CitrA Dublin, and its Members have set • fait to Ireland, and we trust all Ireland will follow t .. na l Metropolis in praying for the Rettat... Then MA nothing else can save this country ftoM thstk loss of Ireland, in matter of fact, as lye bate already lust her in point of a ff ection. Zl•thing else can sate Ireland from becoming a kitWof still more galling evils, and le tact of being turned into a desert, inhabited by .feei and those the children of want and despair. re have reasoned upon this subject before; and we eh proud to find Dublin, and its Representatives, countenancing oar argu. monis. Those who ire' igttieved best know their own wants. They know/Pe/here the pressure is, and its nature. The Repeat., thorefore,ls in every one's mouth. Men in Ireland, at present, will hear of nothing beside. 'Even the CATltottc Quits. iLoN is stilled, for a while, to live maple room fur the voice calling old for ItCrtAL. The Catholics know, that from nn English Par. liament little indeed` is to be hoped fur them. —But all Ireland has spoken out, and has de. elated for the Catholic ,Emancipation. The Irish Catholies t * ever a generous body, would have bee silent lista their own chtims, and loud in their sup. port of a Repeal, eves 'p it had happened that their Protestant countrymen bail still opposed their claims. But new, that Protestants arc es &skive. of Catholic Emancipation as Catholics, the latter pursue their interest directly, while acting Prowa the generosity of withdrawing a partial dainty to make more - *kir for one that embraces the interests of the . whole. nation. A small party of interested English Catholics easy endeavour to destroy this harmony, in Ireland, by on attempt In re.introduce the question of the Veto, but that will be as vain as all their other imbecilities ! The Ca. tholics of Ireland join heed and heart with the Pro. testants to obtain a Repeal, and they will listen to no voice, no lure, that might make them look as if they had forgotten laat.awn's dearest wish and best ifitarcq, a 11.CcitS,L of the Untos with Eno. 144:15D 1 Yesterday morning his MAJESTY, the Dukes of YORK, SU‘SEX, and CAMBRIDGE, Princesses At. ourrA and SOPHIA, accompanied by Lord WAL.
