The opponents of Mr. PERCEVAL, on the subject
of the Irish Catholics, who are also admifers of SI!,
GRATTAN, have certainly been placed by the latter,
gentleman in a very awkward and vexatious predica-
' ment, for by admitting that the Vitro, or some mea-
sure of equal efficacy, •was necessary for the preser-
vation of our political Establishment in Church and
State, he • folly vindicated Mr. PERCEVAI. from all
suspicion of an intolerant spirit, and proved on the
contrary, that he aced from the purest sense of duty
to that Constitution to which we owe the continua
ance of our happiness and indeiendence, wile the
most" ancient Governments of Europe are tumbling
or treinbling around us.
Some days since, as a nursery-maid in the service
of Sir T. Pilkington, of Chevett, in Yorkshire,' was
sitting with the Baronet's infant child near the fire,
a spark, during the momentary absence of the
screen, flew on the child's clothes, and set them in
a blaze, The girl, with a sentiment of humanity
and duty that merited a better tate, instantly ran to
the cradle, and by wrapping the infant in the bed-
furniture saved it; her own dress, however, was by
this time in filmes ; she ran into anadjoining room,
and rolled het self in the carpet, but unhappily too
late, for site was burnt to such a degree, that after five
days excessive snit ring, she expired.
