The Commander a very useful and intelligent Gen t iss touch as man can do with the his tobsmand ; but, in addition to ill be necessary fur putting down to call nut the yeomanry cavalry districts, and to send a much ..ary furo inter the county, in the highly barony of Kilcuntiel, and the immediate -4 of it. Lord Clotibrock, Mr. Daly, Mr. Donelati, of Rallydonelau ; *-Ir. Daly, of Reford ; Captain Davis, of Hamp stead ; Captain Donelen, of Killagh ; Mr. Usher, of Eastwell ; Mr. Lynch, o(Cartron ; Mr. Mahon, of Beech Hill ; have all of theist set a noble exam ple for the Gentlerden or other parts of the county to follottr; they defended their houses resolutely, sod did not deliver up their arms as a peace-offer ing. Mr. Groome, of Sycamore Hill, and his • sons, have shewn that a thatched house may be de..- t rended as well as a slated house; they have, by their spirit, preserved their property, their arms, 111141 their honour." We have only one or two observations to make o n this letter. With regard to the dues claimed by the Catholic Clergy, we have no doubt that our correspondent is correct with respect to the fact ; hut though these dues may occasionally have led to resistance on the part of the peasantry, we believe that the demand of tithes has been the more Unarm , diate cause of the recent disturbances. There are many facts in our possession that would justify this conclusion, but we shall content our-elves wit ii teferting to an official document, which puts the question beyond a doubt. We allude to the Reso lutions passed at Kilcosinel. in this county, in Octo ber last, end published in this Journal about that period. They were proposed by Mr. Mahon, a gentleman of considerable properly, end intimately ricipsaiiittil with the county, and the causes of the disturbances—who knows the character of ti le peasantry well—a practical man beside. and who filled the official situation of Judge A•iet.edie in this district during the Rebellion. the Resolutions were seconded by Mr. Minden, of Ballydo orlon, a gentleman of great possessions in the comity, and a man, geurially, attached to the in terests of Gosertnent. The sixth Resolution is as follows : irintilig will teed isamtllo preserve peace and grit air among the lower claws of society. than the declifillel• thews the relay...at of their properties, in the some Waft as they sad their sweaters have enjoyed the ‘arne .wording to the .sages and customs of the constry. from thee humemorial ; sad we consider the attempts of some ClergyMem of the Established Church, to introduce the parnea‘of the tithe of hay, soil ether &Metes, within thea county, contrary to such immemorial usages and cots. Wats, as tending, IN its consequences, to disturb that good order sod peaceable demeastur fur which the inksbitawla of this county have bees generally distiuguished." We cannot conclude this article, without revert. ing a g ain to the meritorious exertions of the CM tholic Clergy its this district. They have been, ite• deed. most exemplary. That the statements of the provincial Journals are to be received with great caution, is manifest Coin the following letter, received at this office, om Captain O'Plaherty. of Deny M.Lougliney Castle s iu the barons. of Clare:— " Derry 111nonghney Castle, Galway, February 41, Mu.

I3RITiSii PRESS. LONDON, TIIURSDAY. Mann Y. isto. The Ministerial Prints are labouring strenuously Ss convert the discovery of ThistleteuerLf atrocious conspiracy into an engine of political warfare against all persons, of whatever deuonsimition and principles, who may chance to question the pro priety of the I.soe proceedings in Parliament. TLe convenient* off' suds monocle of reasoning (if it de serve this, name) la, at the eve of a generil elec tion, sufficiently obvious ; but we thiuk that iothis inataiwe the zeal of those writers emceed, the letter of their instructions, for we Isavetwo highs an opinion , of the homier sad generosity of the Noblemen and ~•r :„ • - .s they have done in the Speech missiuners, strain the logical Inference of the recent discovery, and give it an influence so far retrospec tive as in appearance to justify their° wn eusiduct ; but his must be a very grovelling mind, and a very base disposition, who would endeavour to fling the reproach of Thistlegeosd's conspiracy over all who questioned the policy in November last of destroy ing, upon very defective or equivocal testiniuny, some of the noblest privileges of Ruch.lintel,. Such, however, is the object of more than one ministerial scribe, and it is right that the electors should guard their understandiugs against such gross attempts at delusion. It is observable that at many iteriods of our his tory weak and tottering administrations have brood very effectual support from the ationniable discove ries ai r gross conspiracies. One set of Ministers kept their seats against all the power and influence of the real Court party, and the actual wishes of the KING, by the discovery of the •' Popish Plot," and in some time afterwards their rivals blond no less advantage from the equally lie titious " Rye-house Plot." In the succeeding reigas the name of the Pretender was an in exhaustible source of strength, and it has ever been observable, that the de►tgus of ene mies and traitors were most violent and most dan gerous at the precise m 1111 l pant when the existing Ministers were moat sorely prest by their !political rivals in ParLatnent. The French Revolution was of incalculable advautage to Mr. PITT, and the progress of the war gave his party an extent of in fluence and pat age which during its continu ance rendered them invincible in the warfare of parties. The teriiiiiiation shook their power. and then. most fOrtniiately fur the Ministers, up storied the Radicals. The " Old Stocking Conspiracy" or Spalields rived the Cabinet ; and now a plot to de stroy the Servants of the Crown. exploding at the eve of a general plectioss, will, in the opinion of the ministerial writers, if properly urged. ensure their political immortality. The occurretice, however, is in itself too isolated to ►ender it a dexterous wea pon—it affords sin evidence of a bad svirit -snout; the body of the people—lt is the crime of a few itidivotuals—and when they ►hall have suffered for their atrocity, the coutitty will be purified from the stain. The Ministp rs felt this, and they there fore avoided to solicit front Parliament any addi tional atithority. _ An Evening, Paper in commenting upon the Co rooter inquest held on the body of the murdered SMITHERS, displays the character of that spirit of faction by wh ch it is ever influenced. It com plains that one of the Jurymen should question wit nesses to know it they were certain that Thist/e -wood was prtsitit • henSMITHERS was killed," and hims that one •o incredulous upon so notorious a fact cannot be u loyal •subject, Such iv the j u stice of this ministerial writer ! • Ile is surprised, for sooth, that a conscietitious mail, charged ;you oath with a solemn investigation. of a murder, should inquire particularly rcspecting the !mentos' who were actually present when the crime wus commit ted! This writer would have the Juryman, un mindful of his oath, disp - ense with the vulgar ne cesvity of evidence, avid find a ve►dict against any individual whose nutne may chance to have been mentioned !• This, if not law and justice, would be whit the ministerial writers facetiously cull loy alty.
