Tleir presence there was first wnnounced
by the overthrow of monarchy. The people
of #rance, long held 1o slavish obedience to

They daved shuke off the ivon bands of svwv

tyrants felt thewiselves toltering on their

the efforts of the Republicans of France; but
in their cfforts thiy Lanishicd moderativii,
they fled to excess, and exposcd their liberty
aud their country to e attucks of aspiring

AN EserLanp, we view the ouly rival, yei
the powerilil opponent of the Cundck Cone
guercur. But i ler government, ‘the cax
(renmies ¢f ircachery, of basencssy ¢f crucii,
f corruption, ¢of pevjuryy and of burbuiism,
are combined. licr ariswocratick, debused
and corrupted councils are the sources ol
villainy ; ber nuvy, the mstrument of he:
wrtures, The world hos witnessed her infa
wmy ; and every upe, from (e fiest savage in
cursions ol her barburtun tounders, can beur
testimony to her guiit. Her friendship, is
(Ad6OD 3 her protectiony tyranny 3 her aid
robbery wnd death. Pilluge, massacic wnd
rape huve accompunied their aims wherever
fiperdy ¢ g'd lead them. Brutality and drun
kenness are the fuivest tinits o the charace
ter of the reyui vidiuns who sway the British
sceptre. Either pacifick fiom cowardicey or
ty rutinical from fower, cither harndess from
‘nsanityy or barbarous froin disposition ; they
huve ever exdibited spectucies of the lowest
degradation to which huinun nature can -dee
base itsell, or the brute Le sunk. A selee
tion of the cunormitics of the British com
wandants in lodia would strike with horrour
cven the blood-thirsty Suwaknrow, or the
wore hardened Rosespieine. We have
viewed in silent korrody the picture of fero
city exhibiied at the Council Fire of the
Liarbutians of the American Wilds.=~The
unfortunate, but intreprd prisonery chained in
the midst of the devouring element, yet not
¢ven then aullowed to ease his agonies in the
poins of death. While the subject of every
cruelty which the human imagination can
conceive, or ingenvity devise, the enly wish
of kis inhuman torturers is to increuse bis
’ puius,.to proioay his struggles, and wdd to
the pangs of deuth, redopdled lorments. Yet
this 1s but a faint shadow of the British mas
sacres Wi India ; it falis far ¢hore 1a point of
cruelty 1o the enormitics of the Biitish sol
dievy., e livelicst picture of the miscrics
J hell can mover equal the tragick story of
visid's swromgs. EHer fruidlul ficlds, formeily
the scenes of Eastern grandeur, yet'ol sim
ple pleasure 5 of custly magnificence, yet of
rural enjoymient ; are now cither stiwted by
“the bivod or whitened by the unbuvied bones
Lol their former touants. Britcin, in the bour
} of peuce, scized upon the unsuspecting prey,
- gave a loosc 1o villainy, and drencsea thew
- humble cotages in blood. To gratily the
wanton cruelty of an Fuglish barbarian, the
populous, the extended, and Juxurious prov
inces of the Lust were consigped o all the
miseries to which unbounded lust, five, and
Jicenced muiders could reduce them. Mar
rions fell victims to the writhing agouics of
latnine, caused, rot by the bigh Liand of Leu
ven, but by the blasting rapacily of their vo
racious conquerours. The hordes of British
Tigers, wild ior blood, and vavenous for gold
poured upon their untutored vanks, dispersed
their bands, and let logse the ficuds of
slaughicer to scour with death the vanlished
plains. Hence this garden of the world, this
terrestrial puradise, this nursery of mankind
is now becume the hicld of desolation, the
theatre of heilish depruvity, tie den of prow
g vultures, or of siill more savage men.
“ The cruel fury of the Hanoverian dynasty,
not sutistied by the murder ol vuoflending
Willions W the toorid regions, extended iw
wusting horrours even to the bogs of Inge-
Laxp, and drove her patriots 10 the scafiold,
ser liberty w the grave, The streets oi hee
cities nightly resounded with the cries of a
arm and murder, Her rural vales became
channels for the blood of her unyielding be
roes. Safety from murder, wnd [reedom
(rom chuins, could be found only in the bide
ous caverns of her craggy mounains, or in
he glootuy depths of dreary forests. Op
pression’s grim night overshadowed the lice
nisphere of IRELAXD, and British usurfa
