mode of seeking forgiveness for the past, and permission to

" When it shall be made clear to us, that the loyalty of the

all hopes of ascendancy are blasted for ever—" that the

Mulgrave's Government in Ireland commands the affections
of the people to a greater extent than has been known sit°
the reign of Henry the Second. This is proved to delft,
stration by the increased popularity of O'Connell since'
joined the Administration. I have stated in a former e°l
munication, that this year's tribute to the Liberator, at%
the state of the registries, would afford incontrovertiL
proofs of the low ebb to which Toryism is reduced in
