They appeared to have been a long time in use, and from their construction a great fraud must have been carried on. Derniett was from home at the time, rhe would have been arrested; but as the officers were conveying the whole of the illicit apparatus to the Eicise. Of they met him, and told him what they had done ; his answer was, " Well, I can't help ft." Dermett has been de. tested several times before, carrying on the sameruinous traffic: IRELAND. ISWILIN COMMISSION. [From the DzthlinFrec-nan's Juumal of• Tuesday, Jan. 7.1 Yesterday morning the Judges MOORS and BURTON Were on the Bench at ten o'clock. About three o'clock . the Grand Jury of the City of Dublin came iiiko Court, and the Foreman, Sir George WhiteG4d, read from a written paper nearly as fellows 8I y Lords—We have learned, with deep regiet, that the dis charge of our official dutieS, as to certain bills of indictment, has been made the subject of animadversion by his Majesty's Attorney-General, and has been pronounced, by the authority of this high Court to be a tnateer of surpriee. We hope that • neither tha Court, npr warts 2 allotioni his Majesty's irrtrtcll3il Law Officers, intended to convey any inumation, that our judg went has been influenced by fear, by favour, or affection. A charge of such a nature, without adverting to the enormity of the guilt which it would intpute,would be essentially unjust; for the oath of secrecy which we have taken forbids a disci°. sure, which the vindication of that lodgment, and, if neces sary, the satisfactory refutation ofauch a charge, would impose. it must be . recollected, .that to us exclusively is the evidence known, upon which our judgment was founded ; and we there fore trust that this high Court will receive, the declaration now unanimously and solemnly Made by us, that out decision was the result of a laborious investigation of the evidence, a con seientious consideration of its wewht, anti a sincere desire to adhere to the charge of the Learned Judge, who so fully de tailed to us the nature of our duties, and the nature of the prin.- 'ciple upon which he was, bound to discharge them - JusticeMootto-41mitletrien of the Grand Jury, the less. I now say upon the subjetie of your communication, perhaps the better. You have atannl what you have stated, from what you say you have heard, and only beard, and not front tiny thiut; collected by your own intelligence, or in your own presence. It is a dangerous thing for a public body to act on opinions and on hearings, of the accuracy of which they luau not be apprised. Gentlemen, shall say no more than this, that the Attorney. General has, in 'what has been communicated to you, been (I will not say unjustly) most shamefully inisrepreeented. In my hearing, or in that of, my brotbetJadge, he not onlydid,,not cast any imputation upon the Grand Jury, but expressly guarded himself against any such suspicion. Ile said that no man could, or dared to arraign a Grand Jury for their decision in the exercise of their Constitutional privilege— Um*, Gentlemen, leaving to you all the privileges which by law belong to you, and, which you have a ri g h t to chant.— The Attorney-0 0 4 r a hail at the earne time his privilege, and a right to expreess his surprise and disappointinent that a body of evidence which had appeared to hint so decisive, shook! have struck a superior jurisdiction ; in so veryAiffereut a way. —lie had, I s ay, a right to express such eurprise, giving every respect to the conselencious decision of the Jury ; and having that right; he manfully stated that Ins mind could not be satisfies), unless titecase underveent discussion Before another Jury ; and 'be. accordingly annotniced his intention to flie an information agaiust the same person;, and tiring alio ..matter before a .Petty Jury, where the whole event and cireuriatances of the case could be cottideretl. It is said that the Gond Jury have a constitutional right to decide, under their oaths and con. consciences, and diet no Man is entitled to dispute, the exer. cise of their privilege. As to any intimation of what haefellen from the. Court, if you listen to, vuLlic report, you might have had still more to advert to in that respect ; ,for whet was tuna by the Court has been utSbst strangely rniireprNettred in some of the public newspapers. If the Grand Jury, tbtrefOro, 114Ye'lWen led 0Y40441 relanw they-hove-boen moderate in not stating Tate with respect to the Court. ilitat you have addressed to the Court has been temperate and respect. ful. You have stated that the Court expressed surprise. I did say that I was, and I am, surpriseil. 'You, gentlemen, lam ogre, have acted according to your consciences: but I dill and do express my surprise, after reading the laxly of evidence, that it was not calculated to obtain the character of veracity from the Jury. I also said, in answer to an observation filial Counsel (and I say so still), that you had no right, by law s to try what constituted a conspiracy, and that your only business was to consider whether you •believed the facts. I said, and say again, that on the imam informations which I had, there , is a full conspiracy shown ill point of law hp if the facts are . lieved. I also said that the Grand Jury' had no right to try the cause, but only to put it info a course of .troile It watt in answer to. Counsel, who asserted that. the men were in effect acquitted, that the Court thought itself betuid to say, that no nom could be acquitted who wits not tried. I said t h at upon the informations there appeared a m a nif es t conspiracy —,pre. pared eireumstances--placards distrihuteC—c.alls understood..._ Intentions shorn by some parties or other to disturb the public peace. if you had decided that these facts did not Brove a conspiracy, you would ha ve d ec id e d a quest i on o f l ew. ut if the point of your decision was, that there was not credible evidence of the factsalien Limit/ I had nothing to do with that, and diet I must prestime that such was the ground of your de. termination. l'hese were explanations which I gave to Conn. sel ; that is the opinion which I' held, and now entertain, and when different language has been attributed to me, it hex been either from great tu 'lsconception, or gross misrepresentation. The Grand Jury then withdrew. The ATTouNEY-tiENEit4tt. was not in Court during this conversation. ENNIS, JAx. a. It is our painful duty to. mention this day an unfortunate dr cumatance which occurred at Moyhlll, in the barony of Inchi. quit); Lieut. Franklin, of the revenue, proceeded with a party of the army Stationed at Ennistymon to the place abovemen tioned, and seized and destroyed some illicit malt: he was re turning, when a young Man, about 21 year+ of age, named flehir, cams Whim, and begged to get back the bags, which he alleged were bags be tent the person who had the malt, for the purpose, asThat person stated, of taking corn to market. This Lieut. Franklin thought proper to refuse on which Het& be came exceedingly insolent and abusive; whereupon the Lieute nant attemptetho arrest flehir, who fled inw a bog, where he was pursued by the Lieutenaht on horseback, but his horse getting stuck in the hoe, he drew a pistol f rom the holster, anti ran alter him on toot , till he overtook him, on which flehir per ceiving the Lieutenant to be some hundred yards detached !Not his party: and thinking, no doubt he should .be able to overetnne him, for that purpose struck at the Lieutenant several times with a two-handed wattle, the Lieutenant then,- as our inform ant states, and not till then, fired his .pistol, a ball frotn which, Unfortunately, entered- near Itelur's right eye, and cameout somewhere at the back of his head. The Lieutenant proceeded directly to Ennistymon, and sent 'Dr. Finneatie to see if any thing could be done for Whir, who is still living, with however, we fear, little hopes of recovery. Lieut. Franklin was sent into our jail yesterday evening, escorted by a party of the Ennistymon police, under a warrant from Tonikinat:reir, Esq., where, ire suppoie, he must remain until the t suit of this melancholy :affair is know. However, if the 'above statement be correct, in case of Ifehiett death, the Coroner's jury, whit!' we would here sugg4 , st ought to be respectable., will, we have nu doubt, give 3tr . Franklin his liberty, by brink ing m a verdict accordingly: We understand; from unnues tionable authority, that an investigation was this day held beige Major Warburton and Boyle Varideleur, Esq., coll ec t or o f Excise, relative to the above circumstance, which, we are happy to say, terminated most favourably to Mr. Franklin.

EDITOR--I conceive it to be the duty of every •man who justly appreciates the bleasingsef pure religion and civil liherty, enjoyed under our enviable Constitution, to elucidate truth, and to expose falsehood ; more especially at the.pre sent time, when, in this unhappy Country, the temporizing party conceal the first, while the Romish party, -with the Most unparalleled auda city,, propagate the gross e st falsehoods. I am led to make these reflections, and, again to trespass upon your valtrahle Paper, from a cir- i j cumstance recently. communicated 16 me by most respectable,. and Active, Magistrate' of the eauty of Cork. But, befeEe': I shall introduce it to the attention of yew- Readers, I hest leave to refer such of theta us may have your Journals, to the Sun of the 9'2d of November 181,•the 6th of March, the I ith, 12th, and 17th of April, and the 10th of August; or those that have rend, or may read the letters of STONEY in a collected form ~ published; and soirt by Messrs. Itivingtou and '.Other Hook e sellers in London—to the Supplement to that Work. In the letters, svlhich appeared in the four first mentioned Papers, I exposed the grtlf4 misrepresentations of the Roman Catholics of Ireland, lay as- well as clerical, as, to the vast preponderance of the members of their Chureh over the Protestant inhabitants. 'ln the last I proved, ,from authentic documents, the fallacy of the assertions of two champions of Popery, a Noble Lord and a Right Honourable Gentleman, on the same subject.; and in the I letter, which appeared in the fifth Paper alluded to, after stating the grounds of my dissent from the return of the whole Population of Ireland, I then recently laid before Parliament, I added— I ." I am aware, that I lay myself open to a charge of presumption, in thus calling in question the accuracy of the enumeration lately laid before Parliament : but in this, as well as in my 'former Letters, I have steted,,to the utmost of my aid. the grounds, of my dissent ; and it is for the eamlid and iutelligent Reader to determine how far they are stwil-foutrded. At the same time, I beg it may be distinctly understood, that it is very remote front psy intention to throw out any reflection upon the persons eMployed in so Intro , rious an office 48 making an enumeration of the .Population of Ireland : my idea is, that in many Instances they have been imposed upon by thoie whose object is to mislead the Legislature and the British Nation, and to intimidatN by an ex. ngeerated s aeconitt of. liseritysidal*Streligi,th of Ireland ; and the increase of. the Population of the Counties of Cork and Limerick, beyond all credibility, will, in my opinion, fully warrant such a supposition. Had the Populatien of the other Counties been particularized in the public Prints, in the same manner as that of Cork and Limerick, we might have been en, allied to discover more Popish miraeles." . " But, it May be asked, how could imposition have been practised upon the persons employed te, make the enumeration ? Nothing, I conceive, from exising circurnstaeces, more easy. It would have been imposSible for them to have visited the cottages of the peasantry, so as to make their returns front their own ohserVation therefore, as the RouCsh Bishops 'have become of consequence, and are high in favour,, they might have been applied to, to procure frosts their Priests .a return of the Romish inhabitants in . their respective parishes ; and those that have any knowledge of Pispery will not think it any breach of charity to suppose, that those Priests, or even their superiors, would have no scruple of conscience to add'a cypher or tutu; for, if by so doing they could deceive, or intimidate the Le gislature into a compliauce with' their exorbitant demand, the 'end would fully justify the means according to the tenets of their Church. l3e that as it truth I leave it to the gthal sense of the reader to deteresiue how far it comes within the range of probability f or th e pepu latioo of any country to aadvance itt ninety front little wore than two millions, II) - - pe Burke's account s to 6,846,9 : 19, 'taking into ':consideration too the Humbert's* isiSerreetknes, and two open rebel , lions, that have agitated Ireland front the year 1731, to the Tear 1821, particularly in 1708 all of Which tended, ie a very considerable de gree, to the reductions of the Popish party." .The circumstance alludedlto in the begissuing of this letter is this short time since a court try school-master was apprehended on a charge of Whifeboy ism, and brought before the Magistrate, from whom I had toy informatiou ; when,amoag other matters, he confessea that, having been;em ploysd to collect the names of the inhabitants in his neighbourhood, at the time the late ennume ration of the population of Ireland was: in pre, ere's, he had added ..foar thousand ,ru,ne' tfficti. lions persons not in existence, and that in a very confined district. Now, Air. Editor, this single instance, which has thus come to light, is 6' confirmation strong.as proofs of Hoty Writ" of what I asserted 9 months since—that Popish artifice and fraud had been practised, to swell the population of Ireland, for the purpose of deceiving, if not of intimidating the Government, thu Legislature, and the firi. dab nation—nor i 5 it, I am convinced, a solitary atte ; but that, wherever Roman Catholics had been employed. the same mode was adopted.— Let the reader refer to the abstract of the popula.
