It has been observed, that it is mote difficult to
bear prosperity than adversity. Adversity bears a
MAU down, and breaks the spirit to the burd•n ;
but there is a buoyancy, particularly in light minds,
which affords a natural tendency to rise, and every
gust of prosperity carries them away without rule

right to proted himself from being disturbed by
the re-introdirdion of this offensive measure, and has
only required a pledge from his Niiniiters to that
effel. We acknowledge His Menses''s right to
choose his own servants ; and if, as appears to lie
the fed, His Mansrv, under the influence of his
Coronation Oath, feels, in his conscience, a re-
pugnance to this measure, far be it from us to wish
that it should ever be p.essed upon him again.
But the same vise principle, which says, the Kisco
can do no wrong, also says, His frlatt rv's Mi.
!livers are mponsible ; and, if they be responsi-
ble, they ought to be free agents. If the KIP o is
bound by his Coronation Oath, so are the Mi-
nisters bound by their oaths, as Privy Counsel-
lors; and they, toe, may feel, that to tie them-
selves up by gages and pledges, from ading ac-
cording to the course of events, which they cannot
forme or enntroul, may be as contrary to their
sense of duty to themselves and their country,
as the Catholic Questio• is repugnant to the
KING'S conscience.—But what shall we say of the
Irish Catholics, with Mr. KeNsu at their head,
who lisve pressed this basins,, forward thus iadis-
erectly and unseasonably? The last An of the hid)
Parliament was an Aa to turn itself out ; and the
Irish Catholics, tempted by the precedent, have

the result. his being the state of the ease, it is a
w'lfol falsehood, and mean perversion of the fad,
to say, that the Ministers have sought to entrap the
conscience of the Kt o, that they are lying in wait, to
caten the conscience of the trio, and have only given
leap for the moment, until another opportunity may
arise.—The Catholics hat: pressed the merane

s.ene feeling which urged him to adopt the Ine4-
