DUBLIN, JUNE 5.

YESTERDAY being. the anniversary of the birth
of our gracious Sovereign;
.who entered upon his
67th year., ii was observed in a wanner• of such
affeaio:late 'regard and- attachment to our beloved
Monarch, as never Was'wirnfssed before in Ireland.

In .honour of the day, there was a general re-
view of all the regular Troops of
,this Garrison,
and the Yeomanry, by his Excellency the Lord
Lieutenant, in the Pi:cenix-park. His Excellency
came into the field at one o'clock, which was an-
nounced by a general salute of cannon and he was
received with presented arms by the. forces. He
afterwards rode clown the line and irispeCted the
whole, attended by the, Commander of the Forces,
and a number Of other military chara'lers of. high
rank. His .Excellency afterwards took his station
in the centre, and the whole of the Troops fired
three excellent feu.de-joies, in celebration of the
dly; which was followed by loud huzzas, joined by
those of an incalculable number of spedators. The
Viceroy was pleased to' express the highest appro-
bation of the appearance of the military and yeo-
manry ; it was the most magnificact and splendid
military speetacle ever beheld in this country ; it
might well be called a proud day for Itelatd,
which shewed such a' formidable force of Patriots
in arms for their King and Countiy. After the
' Troops went through, their marchings before his
Excellencyi". they came off the field, and were in
town about four o'clock: The lines the Corps
formed were' most extensive, too long for the eye
to calculate. It was
.estimated that more than
13,000 were under arms. There was an immen.
sity of speClators, insomuch that the metropolis
was deserted, and a total cessation of business
while the review lasted. The day was most pro.
pitious for this grand military display, being very
fine weather, and we feel a pleasure to mention,
that we heard of no accidents taking place, and
little irregularity occurred among those of the
lower class, notwithstanding it was Monday.
At four o'clock, his 'Excellency had a numerous
and splendid Levee at the Castle, and received the
compliments of the nobility and gentry in honour
of the day.—The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor,.
High Sheriffs, and Aldermen, went in state to the
Levee. The flag was hoisted in commemoration of
the d,,y on Bedford-tower, and bonfires and other
rej icirrgs at night, terminated the demonstrations
of affeetion from loyal and dutiful subjetts.

Very early on Thursday morning, as the Camden,
one of Mr. Draper's Packer Wherries, was stand.
ing across from Holyhead with the mail, it then
blowing a heavy gale of wind, the Wherrv.saw a
large yellow.sikted Brig, rigged in the Portugal
fashion (Hermaphrodite), floating on her beam ends :
immediately after which she sunk with all on hoard.
So sudden and so violent was the storm, that the
Camden could not yield the least•assistance.

For the follOWing 'just and liberal refleaions we
are indebted to the Work recently published, called
'' Historical .Outlines of the Rise and Establish_
ment of the Papal Power." It is written by Mr.
H. CARD, the Author of the Revolutions of Rus.
sia:

" If there ever was a period, when all religious
animosities and dissentions should he extinguished ;
when all Christians, of every denomination should
he united in the firm bonds of brotherhood, and the
flame of patriotism burn in each breast, with an un-
quenchable ardour, it is the present ; and could that
man exist, who lias been so little warned by the
disastrous fate of other nations, and so little bene-
fited by experience, and persuaded by argument, as
to. be weak and base enough to\ feel no real,attach-
ment to the Country to which he has the happiness
to belong, he need only-turn his eyes to the pro.
Sped she at this moment presents to the world, and
which excites the unfeigned admiration of every Ci-
vilized State, to be shamed at once into reason and
loyalty.

,‘ While menaced ..by a foe, whose gigantic re-
sources; and matchless perfidies at once awe and
confound the great Continental Powers, behold in
one view England the seat of Liberty, of Sciences,
And of Arts, daily increasing in Public Strength
and National Prosperity ; her KING, whose Chris-
tian fortitude shines with such unexampled lustre in
this hour of danger; so universally reveted, that all
pious men are willing to persuade themselves his
life is the peculiar care of Heaven ; her Fleets tri,
umphant in eve_ry_quarter of the globe; her Armies
pradisettill discipline, and familiarized to vidory,
and in chi` Defence of her Religion, Laws, Honour;
and Glory, the great mass of her People standing;
ford), with' that magnanimous spirit, -and ardent
enthusiasm (of which there is no parallel in the An-
' mils of her History) : New, Goo be thanked, with
the immediate prosped of being direded by men of
such acknowledged wisdom and firmness, that not
a particle of our energies will be lost : while under"
`11;e -sagacity, vigour, and boldness of their mea-
sures, ,we may confidently indulge the proud hope,
that perils'of the most terrible nature will be no
sooner faced than repelled, and, that we shall not
only transmit to our descendants their Native In-
dependence unimpaired, and unpolluted by any
Foreign Despot, but steadily and glorLusly perse-
vere in this mighty contest, till we have once more
restored order, justice, and concord to Europe.

" Nought shall make us rue, '
" If England td itselP do rest but true."

" Let not then 'History have to record, and'
Posterity to lament, that the Catholic Priests of
Ireland were so blind to the real interests of their
•flocks, or so dead to the call of honour, as to con-
template this glorious scene with a lukewarm indif-
ference, but rather may the Pastors themselves ex•
claim, and instruettheir .eks, (grateful to Provi-
dence, for casting their.existence in
,so free, great,
and happy an Emiiire), to join in the patriotic ex-
clamation of Father PAUL, .
" Esto perpetua, Esto perpetua."
