WE learn from Lifb'on, that two Commiflio &
ners from the American Corigrefs arrived
a few days since in that capital, with proposals for
{applying the Portuguese with grain, provided it
be paid for in cash, Which offer proved very ac
ceptable to the Queen, whole fubje&s carry on but
little commerce by the exchange of commodities,
but pay either in money or by bills, which arc
punctually honored when due. u or.

c Yesterday the different volunteer corps of the.
county and city of Dublin, with the Drogheda^"
Skreen, Arthy, and Dulcek corps, amounting in
the whole to upwards of 2000 men, were reviewed
in his Majesty's park the Phoenix, 'by general earl.
Charlemont, when they displayed the fame ardour'
which has rendered this nation the admiration of
Europe.^ fortune seemed to have peculiarly fa
voured the review ; for it ceased raining just as the
volunteers marched out to the field, ? and began,
again just as they returned: there perhaps never
was, upon any occasion, so great a number of per
sons of all ranks gathered together in the Park, or
mere fully gratified. < .
An ingenious artist of Birmingham (an eminent'
compass-maker) has lately invented a magazine
gun, that will difeharge 45 bullets separately in
two minutes and a half; each bullet will kill an ox.
at 40 yards distance; it is only charged once, and
aim is taken with more certainty than with the
common fowling-piece, r?.........
' June 5. & '• Cease your rebellious volunteering,"
fay the Castle-men, " and break through your non
confumption agreements, and then you shall, if you
have patience, get every thing you ask.% In other
words, lay down your arms, ,and put your necks
under the feet of your British oppressors, and then.
you may expe& the old British liberality ! No, Mr.
Orde, we are determined to ,grasp our arms the.
fafter, and awaken at last to a sense of the injuries
we have fu Gained for a century from. Britain ; we,
will force that nation, felf-ftiled generous, but in
fad the most rude and felfifh one under the fun, to.
confider us either as brethren, or as open and'
avowed enemies, +
Colonel F—d, who commands a very fine corps*
of artillery, in the weft of this kingdom, to render
them more regular, has issued commissions to his
officers, rteatly printed on vellum, and made in
the lame form as those delivered to the Handing
army. .It is to be wished this mode was adopted,
by other colonels. 1 A
The politeness shewed by the centinels cn guard
at the Castle, to a corps of volunteers that palled
through it last week, does them infinite honour,
and proves the attachment of Irishmen to their na-.
tive country ; but what was the conduct of A 11
upon the occafion.?,the two centinels who flood at
the gate,vherc the patriotic, corps entered, ,vere
confined for the space of two hours, during which
time it was adjudged more prudent to remove all
the regiments now on Ilifh duty, and to fend an
army of foreigners here, than to punish the two
soldiers for their complaisance and gentleman-like:
conduct. > „
The parliamentary reform in Britain, if we may
judge from what appears in the London Prints, will
not take place this year. It is left to Ireland to Hep
forward therefore in this great and arduous under
taking, and shew that the perseverance of a people,
determined to be free, mull at last overcome every
obstacles, 1 r<
fune 8. On Saturday morning last, during the.
relief of the guard at the Castle, one of those mer
cenaries, who was filled with wine and ale from
the libation of his majesty's birth-day, slabbed an
infant, (not more than three years old) in the face.
A humane gentleman from Grafton,ftreet, remon
strating with |the ruffian on this brutal behaviour,
had tlie bayonet pointed at him with dreadful
threats—The gentleman applied to the officers on
guard, who gave him this fatisfa&ion, that they
l^ppofed the man was doing his duty!!| '
