AUBYN TIN AND ,COPPER MINING COMPANY. CAPITAL, £6,000, IN 6,000, SHARES.-DEPOSIT,SS. l'Eli SHARI? Bankers in London.—MESSRS. PR AEDS AND CO, Bankers in Cornwall.-111Essits. Twuisoy AND Co. EST ST. AUBYN is- situated in the Parish of Crowan, V in County of Cornw a ll, an d is held on a 'Perm, of which twenty years are unexpired. It is in the midst of an immensely rich Mining District, being in the vicinity of Binnar Downs, Itelistian, Copper Bottom, Wheal Vor and Great Work, Pal crehuw, Carn Brea Mines, and many others top numerous to mention. Yet notwithstanding such advanta s, the Proprie tors are desirous that WEST ST. AUBYN e clued only by its own present worth and apparent prospe , which, if not sur passing, are considered at least equal to lose of any Mine in the County of Cornwall, however rich, at the same depth. But, without further remark respecting the value of Mine, Capitalists,. especially those who may not have the means of inspecting her, or of getting it done for them, are respectfully referred to the annexed Letters, from well known experienced Mining Agents, who have not the least interest in the Mine in any way, men of high character and acknowledged integrity—Captains Alexan der Teague, Ni c h o l as L ang d on , James • Southy, and James Prout, agreeably to whose recommendation the sinking of the new Shaft, so its to cut the Great Tin Lode 15 fathoms under the present level, is already begi); and in course of prosecution. Although the nominal Capital of the Mine is £6,000, yet it is confidently expected that not one quarter of that sum will be expended (except for materials) before the Mine will be yield ing immense profits ; and therefore it is hoped that no call will be made after the Deposit of ss. per share, except for the pur chase of materials, especially a Steam Engine to draw the water from the Mine, and to stamp the Ores, of which considerable quantities might be raised even from its present shall.w level, so as to give immediate profit to the Proprietors, if there were a Steam-stamps erected for crushing the Ores, as may be seen from the annexed Letters. To meet the supposed expense of the Mine, and secure a fund for the erection of a Steam Engine, and the purchase of the necesary materials, it has been determined that a Capital of £6,000 be raised, in 6,000 shares of El each ; towards which a deposit of ss. per share has been paid, and a further instalment of ss. per share is to be paid on the 2J of January, 1837 ; before which time, it is supposed, th e G rea t Ti n L o d e w ill b e cu t at t h e twenty 'athom level, and, therefore, the erection of a Stearn stamps is necessary, in order to facilitate the making of returns. But no further call is to he made until authorised by a Special General Meeting of the Shareholders to be convened fair that purpose one month's notice of which to be given in two Cor nish. two London, and two Liverpool newspapers, viz. :—The Mining Journal, The Watchman, The West Briton, The Cornwall Gazette, and the LivEupoot. STANDARD, and Journal. The next General Meeting of the Shareholders to take place some tone in December (notice of which will be given in the a s hove newspapers), unless sooner called for by some unforseen exigence, or by a majority of the Shareholders; when the ac counts shall be inspected, and w h en , if requ i re d b y the meeting, two or more Directors shall be elected, who in conjunction with the Managing Agent, shall have the conducting of the opera tion of the Mine. All accounts to be made up monthly, and open for the in spection of every Shareholder. Application for Shares to be made (if by letter, pold paid) to Mr. BACHAND STIIPHENS, P 0111711,• to Mr. ANTHONY STE PHENS, Penryn; and to Mr. C. J. WESTLEY, Broker and Ge neral Agent, 1, Goree Piazzas, LigAr_nnal. RICHARD s'repri ENS, Managing Agent. ANTHON Y STEPHENS, Purser. Since the publication of the original Prospectus, the Mine has been examined by the under-mentioned parties (referred to above), and from their highly favourable report the shares are now at a premium of two pounds. A few hundred shares are now offered to the Public, and as it is confidently expected that the next report will occasion a large addition to the premium, an early application will be necessary to secure them. The addresses of the Examiners are attached to the Letters, that persons wishing for more extended information may refer to them ; upon enquiry being made in the neighbourhood, they will be found men of long experience and known integrity, and that the prospects held out to the Public are much more limited than the present appearances would justify. • Liverpool, Sept. 20, 1836. C. J. WESTLEY, Broker. Richard Stephens, Esq. West St. Aubyn, 30th June, 1836. Sir,—Agreeably to your request, we whose names are here - unto subjoined, have this day inspected West St. Aubyn Mine, and now send you our joint opinion of present appearance, and the manner in which we recommend your future method of working the said Mine, so as to explore as much of the Lqde as can be on the least expensive scale. We conceive the Sett to be a valuable one, having, we believe, upwards of 500 fa thoms in length, on the course of the large l'in Lode; which Lode is worthy of notice, its component parts being such as indicate its being a Tin Lode of such strength as not to be in jured by any change of Strata that may take place in depth. We were not a little suprised to find at the present working shaft, which is only about five fathoms deep, a Lode varying from three to four feet over, or in breadth, on the course of which about sixteen fathoms have been driven at the bottom of the said shaft, on the average worth about 10s. per fathom. We do not recollect ever seeing a Tin Lode so regular in size, and.making on the north and south walls so regular at only five fathoms from the surface. Its underlay, about five feet in the fathom, we consider a good underlay. We agree in the opinion, that you should at once increase your -number of workmen, by putting nine men to sink a new shaft, south of the present shaft, so as to take the Lode at twenty fathoms deep, the said shaft to be eight feet long by five feet wide, so as to have room for drawing the water by Whim Barrels, and drawing stuff at the same time if necessary, and also for a footway. We strongly recommend your doing this without loss of time, as the summer season is the best time for accomplish ing such an object. If you are fortunate enough to cut the Lode in this new shaft (as we have every reason to expect) pros perous, we then would say, erect a Steam Engine for draining the said Mine, and for stamping or crushing the Tin stuff, by doing which you will save in carriage to water-stamps, &c. a very considerable sum. We also should not omit saying, that the inclination of the surface to the west of the said shaft is favourable for Metal; this we have observed, in the course of our practice as Mine Agents, in some of the most extensive Mines in this County. We are, Sir, your most obedient Servants, (Signed) ALEXANDER TEAGUE, NICHOLAS LANGDON, JAMES SOI3THY, JAMES PROUT. Richard Stephens, Esq. St. Agnes, Bth July. 1836. Sir,—l have your favour of the 4th instant. If my labours, by inspecting your Mine at any time, will promote your interest, rshall do it with thevreateetof pleasure. I have been a practical miner for upwards of forty years, and I never was so pleasantly disappoint e d by i nspec ti ng a s h a ll ow Mine in all my ideas I was at the prospects of West St. Aubyn Tin Mine, in the Parish of Crowan ; neither have I ever wit nessed such strong large Lode, and so productive for Tin, at the depth of five fathoms below the surface, as West St. Aubyn. If there were a Steam-stamps erected on the Mine, you might return large quantities of Tin, even in this infant state of the Mine. And - I think the Lode, when it is explored down in settled ground, will be found more productive, and the Tin, that is now scattered throughout the Lode, will be collected into a settled leader, and produce more Tin in a less quantity of work. I never Raw the large Copper Lode that you say is about one hundred fathoms to the north of the great Tin Lode. West St, Aubyn Mine appears t o me to be in a good mining district ; and I would recommend you to open costeen, pits on the back of the great Copper Lode, and every other Lode in the sett. It is not an uncommon thing to find Tin-backs on Copper Lodes, therefore I think you may expect, reasonably, to find Tin on the backs of all the Lodes in St. Aubyn Mine. 1 am, sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) JAMES PROUT. Wheal Kitty, July 7th, 18.36. DEAR Stn,--I am in receipt of your favour. anal in reply beg to say, that I never saw a Lode at the present depth so kindly-- and likely to be so productive, as that of West St. Aubyn Mine. Still I would advise you to see the Lode at a deeper level before I would recommend the erection of a Steam -stamps. Yours truly, (Signed) JAMES sount y. Richard Stevens, Esq., Kernick House, Peuryn. Richard Stevens, Esq„ SIR,—I would advise you to sink the new shaft in the W es t St. Aubvn Mine with all speed , so as to see the Lode abo u t )5 fathoms below the present workings. From the appearanc e o f the Lode in the shallow level which is now driving, I think that there is scarcely a doubt of your cutting a very go od Lode at the 20-fathom level; fer I never saw such a large, strong, pro mising, and so productive a Lode at the depth of five fathoms below the surface, in all the course of my mining, ( w hi c h is nearly forty years.) This Lode, which you call the West St. Aubvn Great Tin Lode, is on an average three feet wide, car rying two regular walls, and will produce from seven to eight pounds' worth of Tin per fathom, at the depth of five fathoms only from the surface. From looking at the above-mentioned Lode, together with the chance of two or three other large pro mising Gozan Lodes in this sett, in my opinion West St. Aubyn Mine is one of the most promising speculations that I have seen for many years. I remain, sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) NICHOLAS LANGDON. /THE Directors of the Kent Railway Company, to prevent 1_ any misconception, beg to inform the Subscribers that the whole of the proposed line has been surveyed by Mr. Walker. their engineer, who is now engaged in completing -t field surveys, and that in about ten days the solicitors wil nmence their application to the proprietors of the land ugh which the line is intended to pass.

Rotunda-place, 80ld -street, Oct. Ist, 1836. To-Moßßow, tWednesday,) the sth of October instant, will appear the First Number of ripHE LIVERPOOL TELEG RA P 11, a new Liberal I Weekly Newspaper, forming a comprehensive Compen dium of News, Politics, Literature, and Science; to be pub lished every Wednesday. • The Conductors offer no apology ft is addition to the local press. As a politi ca l an d lit erar y p r action, its character will j k be tested by th e severe b u t unerrin ordeal of public opinion, and must, of ne ce s s ity, s t an d or f a ll its own merits. The late extensive modification which the enlightened policy of the present Administration has effected in the stamp and paper duties removes, to a great extent, the injurious restric tions which have hitherto operated to prevent intellect, enter prise, and capital from embarking in this vitally important branch of the literature of the country. Political information will now, for the first time during a century, be 'rendered acces sible to the great mass of the people. An experiment, on a great scale, is about to be made of the effects likely to result from an unshackled Press. Judging from what has been ac complished for the liberties of England, and the progress of good government, during the long period that the Press has been partially fettered, it may be expected that its expansive energy, no longer restrained, will be productive of the best results, in. imparting increased power to those moral agents which are at present operating to give an improved character to the physical, moral, and mental condition of mankind. In the present portentous struggle which is pending between the friends of liberal institutions on the one hand, and the enemies of cheap and good government on the other, every new combatant who enters the arena is viewed with anxious interest, during the brief period between the avowal of his motives and his ranging himself beneath that banner under which he is to serve. The conductors hasten at once to an nounce, that the TELEGRAPH takes up its position among the defenders of the rights of the millions. They enter into the contest with the elastic feeling arising from the consciousness of a just cause—the cause of universal and religious liberty. TheTimeetia els will be the medium of advocating those important amelior a ti ons i n th e G overnmen t an d i nst itutions of the country, which the altered circumstances, growing intelli gence, and increasing power of the People imperatively de mand. Among the concessions which a reluctant Oligarchy must inevitably make to the overwhelming force of an en lightened public opinion—and which will be strenuously urged in the columns of this journal, may be enumerated, a Reform of the House of Lords; the Civil Institutions of Ireland placed on the same footing with those of England and Scotland; the Abolition of the Septennial Act; the Extensiou of the Electoral Suffrage; the Repression, as far as severe penal enactments will reach them, of Bribery and Corruption; a searching Re form of the Church ; the rights of the Dissenters placed on a broad and secure basis; the Removal of all Restrictions upon the Commerce and Industry of the Country; a comprehensive and liberal system of Popular Education; and such a Reform in the system of Jurisprudence as will ensure cheap and speedy justice to all classes of the community. It will be unnecessary to swell the list with mote of those changes in our social policy, on which the public mind is firmly and irrevocably made up. The conductors, while fearlessly discharging their duty to their fellow citizens, in laying bare tee thinly disguised motives and designs of those who are so industriously labouring in their vocation to restore the palmy days of Tory misgovernment and corruption, will never be found pandering to the passions or ap pealing to the prejudices of the community, for the sinister purposes of obtaining either notoriety, or, at the best, a short lived popularity. "No feelings of false delicacy, however, for the mere conventional etiquette or usages of society will pre vent them from vigorously exercising the lash of public scorn and' reprobation on political terfriversation, lay or clerical de linquency. Heopert for the laws, for the sacred and inalienable rights of property, and for the pure and unsullied administration of pub lic justice, will form rules of action by which their political sen timents will ever be directed. To the advocates of despotism. to the titled or untitled sinecurist and plunderer, to the poor man's oppressor, to the clerical hypocrite or rapacious pluralist, the motto of their warfare will be ' War to the Knife." At the same time, no party or pecuniary consideration will ever tempt them to step beyond the legitimate limits of fair and honourable controversy or suffer their colunins tq be polluted by that reck less spirit of furious partisanship which, regardless of the sanctity of private life, drags the unoffending and unwilling victim before the prying gaze of the public. In every thing that concerns subjects of national, general, and local interests, the conductors are determined to make this journal a manual which-shall present to the notice of its readers a clear dispassionate view of all events of public importance. To that department which will be devoted to reports of the Town Council, public and parochial meetings, a more than ordinary degree of attention will be paid; and no exertion will be spared to render minor details and arrangements ample and complete. The following outline offers a brief synopsis of the manner in which the contents will be arranged : Fdreign intelligence, collated and placed under the diffe,:enl countries.

We are obliged to omit many local articles of interest, police, Sze., from the great press of advertisements. " We have received " National Lyrics," and a pamphlet by " Mercator," which shall be noticed in our next. The great extent of our local intelligence compels us to omit several articles of interest which we had prepared for inser tion, especially an abridged report of the great Protestant Meeting at Glasg ow , an d t h e accoun t o f the Stroud Conser vative Dinner. Parties wishing their names, and the characters they assume at the Fancy Dress Ball to appear in the STANDAIto, will ensure correctness by forwarding them to the Office. A correct list of all those who attended the Ball, will be pub lished in our next Tuesday's edition. Paul Pry" wishes to know " how many Irish Roman Ca tholic superintendents and inspectors there are now in the Liverpool police; and what number there are of the same class in the force altogether ?" We are sorry we cannot afford the information, but we believe there will be found a preponderating number of Irishmen. If any corporation on the other side of the channel acted so partially in their selec tion, we should be treated with plenty of eloquent declama tion on the appointment of aliens instead of the " genuine natives" of the "green isle of the ocean." Our attention has been drawn to the illiberal and unfounded imputations which the Liverpool Times has put forth respecting our police reports. We beg to inform our contemporary that, in our animadversions upon the conduct of certain insolent and ignorant members of this newly created force, we have been actuated only by a love of truth and a desire to avert from our fellow citizens the consequences resulting from the arbitrary and improper exercise of that brief authority with which these meddling upstarts are invested. We do not, therefore, deal in indiscriminate censure; we lash only those who have, by their own rash behaviour, rendered themselves obnoxious to punishment. Wherever an abuse of power is manifested, we shall continue to pursue the same undeviating course, undeterred by the vaporing of the radical scribblers by whom we are assailed. Elie Eiberpool TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 4, I 83G. A general impression has prevailed since Friday that the reported defeat of Gomez by the constitutional forces will turn out to be a fabrication, to which currency has been given fur Stock Exchange purposes. If this should prove to be the case, or if the particulars are unduly ex aggerated, it will reflect but little credit upon the mer cenary individuals who have been thus guilty of sacri ficing truth at the shrine of unhallowed speculation. A few days, however, will put us in possession of authen ticated accounts from the seat of war. It is stated that, in consequence of a general disbelief in the report which reached Paris last week, the Spanish securities had there suffered a considerable depreciation. A reaction in public feeling appears to be about to take place in Lisbon, from which city we have advices of the 25th. Strong remonstrances have been made against the late movement by persons of weight, awl we are in formed that M. Van de Weyer had suggested the pro priety of applying to England for assistance, on the ground that every attempt to set aside the charter of Don Pedro should be considered as a Miguelite movement. The recent proceedings of the Improvement Committee in our town council, in reference to the sale of the land in John-street, on which the Globe Chambers are erected, carry with them strong symptoms of jobbing. It is a very difficult matter to understand the grounds upon which it was decided that Mr. Rotherham was the " first offerer" for the land. From a careful examination of the several documents on the subject, which were submitted to the notice of the council, we are led to believe that the Tradesmen's Bank had a prior claim upon the committee arising from the circumstance that they had acceded to the terms proposed by the council before Mr. Rotherham had intimated his readiness to close with them. There seems to be a great deal of confusion introduced into the discussion of the question in consequence of the anoma lous position occupied by Mr. Franklin, the surveyor. If he was really authorised to treat definitely for the sale, how does it come to pass that his agreement with Mr. Parry is set aside so unceremoniously. There is a glar ing discrepancy between the statements of these two gentlemen ; one says that a bona fide sale was concluded, subject to no contingency but the ratification cf the council; the other as confidently affirms that no compact was entered into for the land to the Tradesmen's Bank directors. We think that Mr. Franklin's personal honour is deeply involved in the matter as it has been left by the council. But there is a further topic which requires elucidation. it is currently reported that Mr. Rother ham's claim was cherished by the committee because certain members were deeply interested in the success of his application. How far this is true remains to be ex plained. On the whole we cannot but express our belief that the Tradesmen's Bank directors have been treated unfairly, and that private interest has been suffered in some way to warp the judgments of our immaculate town councillors. A full examination of all the parties concerned in this transaction is required, and ought to be imperatively demanded. We are glad to hear that the following distinguished individuals have accepted the invitations of the Trades men's Conservative Association, and intend being pre sent at their approaching dinner:—Lord Sandon, the 1100. C. J. Canning, M.P. for Warwick, and W. E. Gladstone, Esq. M.P. for Newark. Answers have not yet been received from several other eminent and noble con servative statesmen whose company on the occasion is anticipated. There appears very little doubt that this glorious gathering of the Liverpool tradesmen %yin rival if not eclipse any recent display of c onstitutional feeling which has been witnessed. At the monthly meeting, held in the large room at the King's Arms, last evening, the number of new members enrolled amounted to 115, making a total of 1014 in the short space of eleven months from the origin of the society ! The great ad dition which took place last night must be chiefly attri buted to the anxiety manifested to obtain tickets for the dinner, to which the membet ! s have a prior claim in making their applications. We are sorry that there is not in Liverpool a room large enough to allow of a more unlimited issue of tickets. We are positive that the Amphitheatre will not acommodate 4 third of those who would be glad to attend. The privilege of introducing a lady, as spectator, renders each ticket an objectnf more than double the value. We believe it is the intention of ~ ~.x. OCT. q, 1836. the Operative Conservative Association to have a se parate dinner, to obviate that disappointment which would otherwise be inevitably felt. Father Maguire is at length most unpleasantly fixed between the horns of a dilemma. Between the unan swered challenge of Mr. M`Gliee, on one side, and the repeated challenge of Mr. M'Neile, on the other, the rev. gentleman must feel in a very uncomfortable posi tion. It is evident that it is now too late for him to at tempt retracing his steps—he is too fully committed by his public appeals in this town to think of skulking from the contest which he has himself provoked. What will his besotted admirers say if he now grows sly, after the braggart vaunts and magniloquent threats which he re cently indulged in ? If he is conscious of having a good cause to defend, he need not make any display of his modesty on such an emergency. We particularly re quest the attention of our readers to the important let ters which we publish in another column on this subject. THE WATERFORD DINNER.-Mr. henry Villiers Stuart, of Dromana, M. P. for Waterford county, the recently slime-flattered patriot of O'Connell's worthless muse, descending from his " Corinthian capita)," has performed the drudgery of tolling an after dinner knell of poetic prose malignity, abounding in fiery metaphor, against the conservative leader of the House of Lords; but the political funeral of John Singleton Copley, Baron Lyndhurst, will not take place at the chaunting apse dixit of stich short-sighted, justice•loving gentry, as the enve nomed choir of papists, so ably represented by the ran corous speech of Mr. - Villiers Stuart, although supported by a Barron ! That life is at this moment in the zenith of its splendour, the full v igour of its truly gigantic power,.and fostered by the approving commendation of all that is valuable, honourable, and independent within the three kingdoms, (exempting of course, the rampant bands of popish revolutionary demagogues, that infest the soil of Ireland, and choke up, by their unhallowed proceedings, the few remaining springs of her prosperity and her hopes,) its possessor may look down upon them from his lofty elevation, and proudly exclaim with Horace— " Falsus honor juvat et mendax into - Dia tercet, Quern nisi ineadosuin et mendacein!" Yes, indeed, the Corinthian patriotic worthies, who vociferate " justice," and shout " liberty," and who, at the same instant, with their poisonous breath, condemn, and would with callous effrontery, and the bigotted zeal of depraved principle, trample under foot that sacred Institution from which all liberty has arisen, are the na tural and moral "Aliens" to the soil of their birth— " Aliens" to the true interests of their fellow-men— " Aliens" to RELIGION, and " Aliens" to themselves, worthy alike the satire of the classic poet, and the fitting denunciation of him, who has had the virtue and the manhood to stand forth and brand them—false mock-pa triots as they are, the imbecile tools of a knavish adven turer,—Aliens by becoming the obsequious slaves of a designing tyrannous priesthood, on the one hand, and the clinging fawning parasites on the other, of one who has polluted the very name of freedom, by associating it with the pestiferons exhalation, which exudes in all his movements from his contaminating lungs, breathing a moral pestilence around,—the arrogant pretender, who presumes to lead the destinies of Ireland,—the rankest ALIEN that ever infested a society of intelligent beings ; but the theme of Mr. Stuart's muse ! From the acrid genius of this modern Pittacus, (what an insult to the Lybian patriot is the association !) and his dangerous doctrines, have alone arisen that mental and moral alie nation—that separation of soul, character, sentiment, and interest, which has placed unhappy Ireland in her pre sent degraded position. Yes, Mr. Villiers Stuart, giving you the credit for a misled head rather than a corrupted heart, we boldly repel your charge, and dispute your pre mises. Under the scourge of your favourite leader, whose patriotism we have had a fair opportunity of put ting to the test—by means of his restless agitation has Ireland become depraved in political principle—conta- , minated in morals—and corrupted in religion—this we undertake to prove, if not to your satisfaction, at least to the satisfaction of those around yon, , and, , we trust, the benefit of the English people, whose judgment you would vainly endeavour to pervert and to confound, in the maze of your own frenzied idolatry—your grasping of Utopian perfection in government, under the gentle sway of your Milesian chief ! We will cheerfully compare notes for Lord Lyndhurst, with Mr. Villiers Stuart; and leave to his Irish auditory, and to Sir Richard Keane, the patron saint of the Waterford liberal dinner, the full benefit of the polished sentences and flowery rhetoric sent forth, in support of the great Pittacus of Derrynane ; and con tent ourselves with balancing the account in argument, by iterating the just pretensions of that misnamed Lybian prototype, as set forth by the Knight of Dromana, in his woeful assault on the House of Lords—his foil against the falsely-declared enemy of Ireland. And now, Englishmen, hereditary freemen, let us biographise the " modern Pittacus," that, whilst yet he lives, he may enable us to do further justice to his virtue s and his expiring fame, should we lack of duty in our present representation. We will begin with his career of manhood. Here is a trading lawyer (without desiring to disparage the honour of the profession at large) who pretends that, being imbued with notions of freedom greatly above the usual comprehension of his fellow men, he sacrifices the honourable rewards of his vocation at its shrine, and makes himself a voluntary martyr at the altar of his " much-injured country ;" by very cheerfully relinquish ing a profession, yielding almost some four or five thousand pounds a-year, he sets up for a flaming agita tor, being previously deeply impressed with original prejudices against a protestant institution, long establish ed in Ireland, he scours the Roman catholic provinces of that ill-fated country whose already ignorant priest ridden population already pre se nts the very materials for his refractory lever to work upon—the very means for creating a momentum of political strife, and, by abuse of language and misrepresentation of facts, tortured to answer his design, he turns this deluded and warm hearted, but. credulous, population to his own crafty pur poses of deep-laid mercenary ambition ; he tells this ex pectant population that the nation which has over and over again, by its freely•bestowed—its voluntary bounty, relieved it from positive starvation, is a nation of foreigners—aliens in country, in religion, and in blood —a nation of sassenaghs and tyrants, whose impious sons, trampling on Ireland's soil.-.have " polluted. her hearths," robbed her people of their lives, of their in heritance—their civil rights, and introduced an alien' creed of religion, with an illegal impost for its mainten ance, for which they are unjustly called upon to pay- - that their landlords are their greatest tyrants, and that the legislative union with England was a robbery of their independence, and is an unnatural curse upon them —a yoke they are bound to shake ofT, and a protestant estab lishment, for the support of which nineteen-twentieths of them pay nothing, is the sole source of their poverty and misery ; and that, until that church is entirely up rooted, or its ascendancy put down, and the corporate interests and tithes which support it abolished, their con dition cannot be bettered ! For all this mock display 01 patriotism its flaming propounder obtains credit at the hands of his deluded votaries; and, although his false hoods are open to the most irrefragable refutation, h e obtains a real compensation of some eighteen thousand pounds per annum, wrung —extorted by all this despica ble artifice; he is foisted into parliament, and, by the aid of hi s bi ggoted priestly associates, he sells the Irish borough s to t h e highest bidders, obtains an unconstitu tional ascen d ancy in the government and over the con' mons of the o th erw i se i n d epen d ent English nation--in solently a b uses every one who has sagacity to discove r his s p o li at i on l eague —insults the peerage with treaso n able scurillity, a n d c h arges i t w i t h di s h onoura ble and irr es p ons ibl e despotism, when, in th e d ue execution of. its high constitutional office, it resists the march of his combined infamy and revolutionary designs !
