alacrity and zeal which they have uniformly 'ma.:

SIR RICHARD MIJGRAVE!s, MEMOIRS OF THE

REBELLION.

THIRD EDITION.

•
NOTHING can be more-disgusting titan that species
of rancorous acrimony which pervades-most modern
publications• on Irish affiirs.—lt might have been
hbped, at least in the latitukle of London, and of
every civilized State,- that the' unforgiving detes-
tation of the ItishCatholics, which is So conspieu-
.ous in the first editions of Sir It Musgrave's Work,
would have e'er now acqUieseed in more humane, cer-
taioly, more useffd, and perhaps more .just senti-
ments.,—At all events, it might have been supposed
that malevolence had exhausted all its venom. But
finding in, this 3d•edition, that new virulence is
added to the former, we cannot refrain, as friends
to the general interests,of society, from calling for
such 'roofs as may substantiate the following asser-
tion—if the charge.- should be substantiated, we
shall hope for. a reform, if not, we shall hope to -
see a ret rada t ion—,in either case, We shall recommend
more-good-natuticancLa small sprink,ling of the milk
of humanity: • •
• "-It is a cointhon piaAice with-Irish Priests, to
keep in their houses -a female totryanion,. who
pAsses for their Niece:" Page 537, vcA. ii.—Sir
Richard Musgrave• is. here 'solemnly called on, to'
support thii scmdalous 'accusation 'by a _single
instance, and if' he, declines- this: challenge,
mast expert to pasv'with every honest man, for'
the traducer -of most useful, -an urnoffend-
ing,, and resPeetable drdet' of Citizens. Like all
men, and 'all bodies of men-, 'ythe .Roman
tliolid Clergy, it -is to 4e-supposed, have their
colledive and indliltinal/Amperfations.;• 'but this
of intercourse with the 'other sex,--is assuredly
the point on Which the Superiors of that Clergy.
ate most vigilant, and the Inferiors, 'most. irre-
PrOachable.. Unaided by law Or authority, the in-
fluence ofshe Catholic Clergy in Ireland is support-
ed solely by
.opinion, and that mart could not for,
five minutes maintain his situation with the Public,.
whose ittorals were perceived to.bedeficient, espe.,
cjatly in. points 'where he claims the merit of pecu._.
liar purity and exactness. The, Roman Catholic.
Clergy- are, 'by rule Which maintained._
intratiably,;.euiployed and prompted .in the Dio-
-they are natives thus it becomes
utterly Ipsp,..):3sible that-any one should, without de-
tekaiila, -keep.. a wOman-nhder the feigned _character
of a iaition ; for every Priest is placed in' the
neighbourhood of the place of his, birth, where there
is a f)erfed knowledge of .his parentage, ofigin,
and relatives. Sir Richard- Musgrave, in this Ed-
ition, offers no sort of corroboration of the Charges
which':Dr. -Caulfield, with so much solemnity and
probability; denied ; neither does- he advert to a
circumstance very pioperly pressed in the Bishop's
publication: Why 'was he never juridically at-
-eused ? Was it fcebear:anee in the:Protestants cf the
County of Wexf,id ? Certainly Party Spirit never
proceeded to a greater height of intemperance than
in that Country subsequent to the Rebellion, and
were'more obnoxious to that spirit than die
Romish Clergy. To have been punished,, is not un-
der these circumstances, .conclusive evidence of
guilt; but not to have been accused, is undeniable
testim4Q, of innocence. • It must be allowed that
there is somewhat very whimsical in the state o.f
&eiety in Ireland. A Writer sirs down with per_
fed calmness to revile whatever is cherished by a
gt:at portion of the Community, -as most respect_
able, and must robe venerated. He does not resort
for maryelinas incidents to Kamskatska, or any
distant Unknown or inhospitable region—No, he
lays the scene at our fire-sides. He draws a Pic_
. ture of religion and Manners, of opinions, of customs,
and of praaices, which he supposes to prevail in
Ireland, and which would disgrace the civilization
of a tribe of Tartars. And this Writer, It;ithout
matter, mind, or manner, without eloquence, inge-
nuity, combination, or research, has been able to
procure Readers;—Such is Fallion ••

In the next edition Sir R. M. will, it is to be
hoped, discover that a Romish Priest is the real
rawhead and bloody-bones that eats children.
