Os the new Minister at War to the Arm,.
"comrades,
'' TN becoming Minister I shall not
cease to be a citizen soldier. It
is with you, it is by you, that I shall
defend the cause of liberty and of
equality, which unite all citizens as
brothers, and which can never be
modified but for the publick good. It
is thus that in our date we become in
our turns fuperiour to one another;
as is necessary to give command,
that we may give direction to the
general force and will. Be therefore
obedient to your chiefs, because the
common interest requires it of you,
and the publick welfare dapends on
it. I shall never separate myfelf
from good citizens, and the love of
1 liberty shall never depart from my
bosom. In the department of the
North, a part of the electoral body
called meto the Legislature, and I
obtained at Paris a Hatteripg proof
, of the confidence of my fellow citi.
Libert) ! daughter of Heaven
—passion of great fouls—pre
lude for ever over the deitiny
of\ France. Pour thy preceding
ra^s over the horizon of this
Empire — And enthroned at the
Lide of law, reign over a people
which owes to you its new ex
igence. Without thee, man
languishes and degenerates. He
dare not raise co Heaven that
countenance on which the divi
nity has damped his image.—
Terrour besieges him; preju
dices terrify him; & melancholy
blasts the nobleft.affedhons of his
heart.—Even his virtues are a
burthen to him. He fears co
irritate a Shadowy despot, and
the infamous retinue of the sa
traps of a court by daring to ap
pear nobler and more magnani
jmous than his master. Liberty!
fruitful mother of great and ge
nerous actions ! shed on our au
gust Legislators, the spirit of
courage, of Strength, & of per
severance, which may support
them in the immense career they
have to run. Banish from thy
train, that licencioufnefs which
dares to array hcrfclf in thy
garb; and that pusillanimity
which would flop thy progress.
Shew thyfelf incessantly to our
eyes ; Shining in thy graces, &
escorted by thy faithful compan
ions—Wisdom and Patriotism.
Deity of the French! illumine
with thy raysthe darknels which
covers Iberia and the ancient
cradle of the C^fars. Cast a
look of complacence on theßat
^ti^whom constraint has ban
ished from thy altars ; and on
the Belgian, impatient of the
yoke ot his Priests—whose voice
of complaint is even railed to
thee,amidft clamour, fanaticifm,
and the clanking of chains-
Arm the voice of the univerle
with thy avenging thunder —
' Display to the nations the rights
of men ; and after having hatch
ed from the God of War his
destructive brands, render all the
people of the earth one immense
family—one innumerable Socie
ty of Brothers and Friends. -

to recollection tnefe titles with more
pride than the Slaves of despotism
think of theirs, and I recall them on

publick eltcem and confidence, whi^h
are the only rewards of the friends of
Liberty and the Laws.
" 1 add to the expression of my
particular sentiments, my dear Com

the patriotism of our legislators, and
the heady mind, the unalterable re

APRIL 26. The National Guards
of Paris, have resented, in the most
pointed manner, the deliberations of
the Municipality for removing the
bust of M. dela Fayette from
the Hotel de Ville § and several of the
iedions of Paris have had meetings,
at which it was resolved strongly to
reprobate the conduct of the Munici
pality, arid that of M.Petion in
particular, for having endeavoured
to remove the busts of M. de la
Fayette, and M. Bailey.
UNITED SOCIETY of IRISHMEN
^Belfast.
IN the present great xta of reform;
when unjust governments are falling
in every quarter ofEurope ; when reli
gious perfection is compelled to ad
jure her tyranny over conscience ;
when the rights of men are afeertain
ed in theory, and that theory fubftan
tiaied by pra&ice ; when antiquity
can no longer defend absurd and op
pressive forms against the Common
interests of mankind ; when all gov
ernment is acknowledged to originate
from the people, and to be so far on
ly obligatory as if protests their rights
and promotes their welfare: We think
it our duty, as Irishmen, to come for
ward, and state what we feel to be
our heavy grievance, and what we
know to be its effectual remedy.
APRIL 14. A war on the Con
tinent may prove fatal according to
Rosslau's prediction, to more ,than
one of the great Monarchies. Even
the power of our augult Ally, the
King of Pr^ffia, is founded only on
the difciplinc and number of his troops.
The French Court, in the commence
ment of the,Revolution, relied in vain
upon their Handing arm) —The troops
were numerous and good, but instead
of fighting with their fellow citizens,
when brought to test, they thought
proper,to turn their arms against their
employers.
Francis the First, besides the
increase of three livers a month, in
the pay of all the AuJirian soldiers,
has ordered, that each grenadier upon
guard at the cattle, Shall have half a
pound of meat and half a bottle of
wine per day. The apprehension
that citizens may know their rights,
will probably increase the profits of
soldiers throughout the whole Con
tinent.
Declarations and Refold ions
THE GREAT WASHINGTON,
M. LA FAYETTE.
IREL /IND.
OF THE
We have no national government. —
We are ruled by Englishmen, and the
servants of Englishmen, whole objeCt
is the interest of another country,
whose instrument is corruption, and
whose Strength is' the weakness of
Ireland; and these men have the whole
of the power 2nd patronage of the
country as means to seduce and to
lubdue the honeliy and the spirit of
her representatives in the legislature
—Such an extriuhek power, acting
with uniform force in a direction too
frequently opposite to the true line of
obvious interests, can be refilled with
effect solely by unanimity, dec fan and
spirit in the people, — qualities which
may be exerted moM legally, consti
tutionally & efficacioufly,by that great
measure efiential to the prosperity
and freedom of Ireland —AN EQUAL
REPRESENTATION OF ALL
THE PEOPLE IN PARLIAMENT.
We are obliged to pmirfeyeral mat
ters of Intelligence, &c. to make room
for the sublime and beautiful address
of M, Mirandon,
Impressed with these fentiments,we
have agreed to form an association, to
be called THE SOCIETY OF UN
ITED IRISHMEN—And we do
pledge ourselves to cur country, and
mutually to each other, that we will
Steadily support, and endeavour by
all due means to carry into effect the
following Refolutions=
First. Resolved, That the weight
of English influence in the govern
ment, of this country is so great, as
ro require a cordial union among all
the people of Ireland to maintain that
balance which is essential to the
preservation of our liberties and the
extension of our commerce.
Second. That the Sole constitutional
mode by which this influence can be
opposed, is by a complete and radical
refermof the representation of the
people in parliament.
Third, that no reform is praaicable,
efficacious or just, which Shall not in
clude Irishmen of every religious per
suasion.
We have gone to what we conceive
to be the rootofthe evil ;we have Hat
ed what we conceive to be the reme
dy.—With a parliament thus reform
ed, every thing is easy; without it,no
thing can be done: And we dona'll on,
and most earnestly exhort our country
men in general to follow our example,
and to form similar societies ^n every
quarter of the kingdom, for the pro
motion of conffitutional knowledge,
the abolition of bigotry in religion &
politics, and the equal distribution of
the rights of man thro' all fees and
denominations of Irishmen. The peo ,
ple when thus collected, will feel their
own weight, and secure that power
which theory has already admitted as
their portion, and which, if they be
not aroused by their present provoca
tion, to vindicate it, they deserve to
forfeit their pretentions for ever!

Irishmen of Belfafl.

We do not here mention as grievan
ces,' the rejection of a place-bill, of a
pension-bill, of a refponlibility.biil,
the sale of peerages in one house, the
corruption publickly avowed in the
other, nor the notorious infamy of
borough traffick between both ; not
that we are insensible of their enormi
ty, but that we confider them as but
Symptoms of that mortal disease which
corrodes the vitals of our constitution,
and leaves to the people, in their own
government, but the Shadow of a
name. .
Satisfied, as we are, that the intes
tine division among IrifSmen have too
often given encouragement and impu
nity to profligate, audacious and cor
rupt administrations in measures which
but for these divisions, they durst not
have attempted—we submit our reso
lutions to the nation, as the basis of
our political faith.
