Caret and Laval, but they cannot suppress the eon-
victmn, that the measure was advted by the Queen
and the ea- ive auth,rities rather from an apprehen-
sion of civil, than religious, dissension—a fear which
subsequent events prove not to have been groundless.
To the operations of the same law, however, the
agenst sent forth by the London Missionary Society
have ever been subject; and your memorialists ven-
ture most respectfully to remind your Majesty, that
in France, and other enlightened kingdoms of Europe,
the same principle of right on the part of the Sove-
reign and the Government to regulate the admission
of foreigners to their respective territories is strictly
exercised; and your memorialist: submit, that if the
exercise of such authority be deemed essential to the
safety and well-being of ancient and powerful mo-
narchies, its equity cannot be questioned or its neces-
sity denied to the defenceless Sovereign and the feeble
Government of Otaheite.
That, while entertaining these views as to the right
of Pomare and her chiefs tie=stablish and enforce re-
gulations for the governinefit and protection of their
own country, your Majesty's memorialists most em-
phatically disclaim all desire on their own part for
any . restriction on the propogation of relighus
opinions and practices by Christian communities from
which they differ. While, therefore, the Directors of
the London Missionary Society cannot but regret
that the Catholic missionaries of France should wish
to obtrude the peculiarities of religious controversy
on a people so recent^ resse.ed from the depths of
ignorance and paganism as the natives of Otaheite;
and while it would have appeared a nobleKeXemplifi-
cation of Christian charity and self-denial had their
labours been directed to the other islands of the Pa-
cific, where multitudes are still enduring the unmiti-
gated miseries of barbarism and idolatry, your Ma-
jesty's memorialists nevertheless concede most readily
to all, and would strenuously claim for all, the
right which they claim for themselves—the right of
propagating, with unrestricted freedom, by instruc-
tion, argument, and moral influence, those sentiments
and principles which they believe to be revealed and
sanctioned by the authority of God.
That, for the enforcement, however, of the °tab&

THE CHARITABLE BEQUESTS
BILL—THE ACT of SETTLEMENT.
THE OATH OF SUPREMACY.
(From the Dublin Evening Mail.)
While as journalists we have been fighting bye-battles
upon miner pints connected with the recent enactment;
while we have been congratulating our Roman Catholic
countrymen upon th., pote,:tion which this law affords
against the rapacity of their priests ; and encouraging
such members of their hierarchy and their Church as have
evinced moral courage enough to combat the devices of
unprincipled demavgaes, and encounter the hootings of
uncivilised mobs; we greatly fear we have not been suffi-
ciently watchful in regarding the subject upon high con-
stitutional grounds ; or enough alive to the dangers with
which recent proceedings by the Ministers of the Crown
threaten to shake the empire to its very foundations.
If the view we are now about to take—and we are
fully impressed with its solemnity and importance-13e
corri-ct in law, as it is in fact, consequences the most
serious, and, probably, the most fatal, that ever befel
Protestant people and a Christian nation are nearer at
hand than any of us had calculated upon.
By the statute I William and Mary, a. 2, c. 2, a
statute preceding, by some years, that known as the Act
of Settlement, and by which the succession to the Crown
of England was declared and decided, it was enacted
" that every person who should be reconciled to, or hold
communion with, the See of Rom!)., should profess the
Popish religion, or should marry a Papist, should be
excluded and for ever incapable to inherit, possess, or
enjoy the Crown; and that in such case the people should
be absolved from their allegiance, and the Crown should
descend to such persons, being Protestants, as would
have inherited the same, in case the person so reconciled,
&c., were naturally dead."
Many other enactments were made, rendering it not
only obligatory upon the Sovereign to " join the com-
munion of the Church of England as by law established,"
but the following declaration was introduced into, and,
to the present hour, forms a prominent feature of, the
Coronation Oath—that solemn compact entered into
between the Sovereign and the people, at one of the most
august and sacred politico-religious ceremonials known
to our Church or to nur Constitution—a compact sworn
to on the Gospel of the living God :
Archbishop or Bishop—" Will you, to the utmost of
your power, maintain the laws of God, the true profes-
sion of' the Gospel, and the Protestant reformed religion
established by law ? And will you preserve unto the
bishops and clergy of this realm, and to the churches
committed to their charge, all such rights and privileges
as by law do, or shall, appertain unto them, or any of
them ?"
King or Queen—" All this I promise to do."
It will be seen that all those enactments and declara-
tions had reference, and were intended to increase the
stringency of the Oath of Supremacy-1 Elizabeth, c. 1
—and revised and embodied in other Acts during the
reigns of William and Mary, Anne, and George the
First ; and it is necessary for our purpose that we should
give it here at length :
OATH OF SUPREMACY.

Established since 1825.
It I R. L. 'MOSE I,Y, Surtzeon Dentist, of 12,
J_ Berner's-street, Oxford-street, has the honour to acknow-
ledge the very liberal and increased practice he has gained for the
last TWENTY YEARS, and at the same time begs to inform the
Nobility, Gentry, and the Public generally, that he may he con-
sulted DA I LY in all cases incidental to the TEETH and GUMS.

teen law on your Majesty's: subjects, Messrs. Caret
and Laval, a fine of 2,000 dollars was imposed on the
Queen, in the year 1838, by Captain A. Dupetit
Thouars ; and in the year 1839 the law itself was
abrogated, in application to natives of France, at the
demand of Capt. Laplace, of the Artemise ; since
which period the Catholic missionaries of your Ma-
jesty's dominions have enjoyed a liberty never granted
to the Protestant missionaries of Britain—the liberty
of residence on the island without the previous sanc-
tion of the Government.
That the occurrences now recited by your Ma-
jesty's memorialists were followed by the establish-
ment in Otaheite, in the year 1842, of the protecto-
rate of France, and, during the year following, by the
assumption, in your Majesty's name, of the absolute
sovereignty of the island, the dethronement of Po-
niare, and the forcible occupation of her country. As
the result of these aggressions on the rights of the
Sovereign and the liberties of the island, war, with its
attendant desolations, has since prevailed ; the peaceful
inhabitants have been scattered, and their villages
destroyed; the schools of the missionaries have been
dispersed, and their congregations ruined ; their wives
and families have been compelled to flee for safety
from the island ; their own persons have been in fre-
quent peril, and one of their number has (though un-
intentionally) been killed; thus, within a few months,
a train of miseries has been produced which the labour
of many years will be required to counteract.
That, while your memorialists are happy to ac-
knowledge the honourable decision of your Majesty's
Government in declining to assume the sovereignty
of Otaheite, and while they doubt not that the de-
struction of human life, and the other multiplied evils
to which the invasion of the country has given rise,
will be to your Majesty an occasion of sincere and
deep regret, they are encouraged also to entertain the
assurance that a similar course of upright and gene-
rous policy would have been pursued in reference to
the French protectorate in Otaheite had your Ma-
jesty's Government at the time of its commencemen
been accurately acquainted with the means by which
it was established; inasmuch as it is now notorious
throughout the civilisedworld that, Instead of bo;ng
a measure sought by Pomare and her people for the
protection of their country, it was forced upon the
Queen in the approaching hour of maternal anguish,
and under the alternative of invasion and war; and
that, under the compulsory influence of these circum-
stances, she subscribed a document to which she had
been no party, and which could not but prove fatal
to the peace and the best interests of her country.
That, with the knowledge of these facts, which
are now indisputable and universally understood, your
Majesty's memorialists indulge the sanguine hope,
and prefer their most importunate entreaty, that your
Majesty will exercise a generous magnimity, alike
worthy of yourself and of your powerful and en-
lightened country, by restoring to the Queen and the
people of Otaheite their perfect liberty and indepen-
dence, securing only to the subjects of France those
rights, civil, religious, and commercial, which are
enjoyed in the island by foreigners of other nations
both of Europe and America.
That, in the hope that your Majesty's Government
will be generously inclined to remove from Queen
Pomare and her subjects every just cause of opposi-
tion and complaint, your memorialists entertain the
strongest conviction that the honour and interests of
perpetuation France
ofbe a
pourerth
thereby
obtainedb bettery
securedby than by the
means t

" I, A. 8., do swear that I do, from my heart, abhor,
detest, and abjure, as impious and heretical, that dam-
nable doctrine and position, that princes excommunicated,
or deprived by the Pope, or any authority of the See of
Rome, may be deposed or murdered by their subjects, or
any other whatsoever. And Ido declare that no foreign
prince, person, prelate, state, or potentate, hath, or ought
to have, any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre-emi-
nence, or authority, ecclesiastical or spiritual, within
this realm. So help me God."
Our purpose in going thus far back is to show, that
in the reconstruction of the British Constitution, every
Act passed, and every declaration promulgated, from the
period of the Reformation down to the passing of the
Emancipation Act, had a twofold object always in view
—the spirit of which pervaded every Protestant law and
every Protestant document :--namely, no communica-
tion with the Pope—no connection with his See—
eschew both, politically, internationally, and religiously
—no conterence, no intercourse,
"no fellowship with Rome."
The British Sovereign, unlike any other potentate on
the earth, is rendered incapable of ruling his or hersub-
jects under the dictates of despotism or the influence of
caprice—for all the jurists and standard writers upcn
Constitutional law, even at so remote a date as the third
Henry, held, and it is thus laid down in Bracton a3d in
Fortescue, "that the law maketh the King. Let the
King, therefore, render to the law what the law has in-
vested in him with regard to others—dominion, and
power; for he is not truly King where will and pleasure
rules, and not the law ;" and again it is relied upon as a
principle, "that the King of England must rule his
people according to the decrees of the laws thereof."
But to obviate all doubt upon this subject. it is ex-
pressly declared by statute 12th and 13th William 111.,
C. 2, that,

" The ,laws of England are the birth-right of the
people thereof ; and all the Kings and Queens who shall
ascend the throne of this realm ought to administer the
Government of the same according to the said laws ; and
all their officers and ministers ought to serve them res-
pectively according to the same ; and, therefore, all the
laWs and statutes of this realm, for securing the esta-
blished religion, and the rights and liberties of the
people thereof, and all other laws and statutes of the
same now in force, are by his Majesty, by and with the
consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Com-
mons, and by authority of the same, ratified and con-
firmed accordingly."
Having now shown at some length—but not at greater
we hope than our readers will think was absolutely ne-
cessary—what the law was and is, in spirit as well as
in letter, let us see in what manner her Majesty's " Mi-
nisters have served their Sovereign and her subjects ac-
cording to the same ; and for securing the established
religion and the rights and liberties of the (Protestant)
people in respect thereto."
By the 7th and Bth Victoria, c. 97, (commonly called
the Charitable Bequests Act), sec. 15, it is enacted—
" That Roman Catholics shall be enabled by deed or
will to make grants, and vest in the Commissioners his
or their estate, &c., in lands or goods, or chattels, in
trust for any Archbishop or Bishop, in holy orders of
the Church of Rome, officiating in any district, or having
pastoral superintendence of any congregation of persons
professing the Roman Catholic religion." And again,
in the 17th and 18th sections, the titles and the status of
the Roman Catholic Prelates are fully recognised and
established by law, after passing of said Act. But it is
not only that this recognition takes place, but the Act
provides for priority in the Board of Commissioners, and
gives to her Majesty, in Council, the appointment of the
Commissioners; and therein, as we have seen, not only
the Romish Archbishops and Bishops are recognised as
such, but appointed to priority and precedence, accord •
ing to the rank of the sime titles in the Established
Church, and placed before Peers of the realm and of
Parliament.

That, in earnestly soliciting this boon from your
Majesty's Government on behalf of the Otaheiteans,
your memorialists feel it due to the institution which
they hare the honour to superintend, to assure your
Majesty that the London Missionary Society is en-
tirely unconnected with any political objects or inte-
rests; that it receives neither pecuniary nor other
support from the Government of Britain; that its
income is derived from the voluntary contributions of
its members ; that its agents are wholly dependent on
its funds, and subject, exclusively to the control of its
Directors; that they are sent forth, in private and
unarmed vessels, at the expense of the Society; and
that the members of the institution, no less than its
Directors, would feel an insuperable objection to the
use of civil authority and compulsion of every kind
for the establishment of their missionaries among the
heathen nations, entertaining the conviction that such
means are most calculated to defeat the moral and re-

ligious objects of their benevolent enterprise. Your
Majesty's memorialists feel it due also to themselves and
to their constituents, in preferring their importunate
petition for the freedom of Otaheite, to disclaim all
desire of securing any secular or political advantages
for their missionaries labouring in the island; in cor-
roboration of which it is only necessary to state,
that during a residence of nearly fifty years the agents
of the London Missionary Society have never pos-
sessed any portion of the land, but such as may have
been granted during the pleasure of the Queen and
the native chiefs ; that they are strictly prohibited
from accepting any appointment from the native Go-
vernment ; that, although in the early part of their
labours barter with the natives was indispensable for
the sustenance of the missionaries, the necessity
having now ceased, they are forbidden from engaging
in trade or any mercantile pursuit; and that any vio-
lation of these restrictions would be followed by the
immediate withdrawment of the Society's confidence
and support.
That, in expressing solicitude for the withdraw-
ment of the French protectorate from Otaheite, your
Majesty's memorialists deem it all but superfluous to
repudiate the desire of seeing that island transferred
to the dominion of Britain, or of becoming in any
degree subject to its control ; that they are well as-
sured that Otaheite, from its geographichal position
and limited resources, must be regarded as politically
insignifieant alike by the Governments both of Eng-
land and France; and that your Majesty's memo-
rialists would feel the deepest regret that the islanders
should be deprived of the right of independence, and
the blessings of perfect freedom, by any foreign
Power; being sincerely anxious that, in the history of
Otaheite, it may be made evident that, by a course of
intellectual and moral traaning, a race of savages may
be elevated to the power of salutary self-government,
and be inspired also with respect for the rights and
interests of other nations.

Now, let us bear in mind that the oath of supremacy,
which we have set out in extenso, is not only in full force
of law, but that no Protestant can be sworn as a member
of any of the sacred, learned, or military professions--
cannot be ordained as a clergyman, called to the bar as
a lawyer, or admitted as an attorney—that he cannot
held any office of trust, responsibility, or emolument
under the Crown, or be a Director of the national banks
in either country—that no Peer or Commoner can take
his seat in either House of Parliament—in fine, that no
Protestant can, on any occasion, take the oath of alle-
giance to his Sovereign without swearing :
" That no foreign prince, person, prelate, state, or
potentate or ought to have, any jurisdiction, power,
superiority, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical or
spiritual, within this realm."
We must here beg of our readers to go back to the
whole oath—to read it carefully in the context—to me-
ditate deeply upon the spirit in which it is evident it
was framed, as well as upon the feeling in which it ought
to be taken ; for those to whom we address ourselves
view oaths, and swear that they do so, " in the plain and
ordinary sense of the words, as they are commonly
understood by Protestants, without any evasion, equivoca-
tion, or mental reservation whatsoever." We call upon
them to consider well against whom (" the Pope"), and
against what (" the See of Rome") this obligation was
framed—personally, politically, and religiously ; and
seeing that the Irish Roman Catholic Prelates derive their
dignity and their titles direct from the Pope and the See
of Rome ; and that these titles are now for the first time
recognised by law, and proclaimed under the sign manual
of a British monarch—we put it deliberately and calmly
to the considerations of believing Protestants, whether
any one can conscientiously swear :
"That the Pope or See of Rome hath not, nor ought
to have, power or authority, ecclesiastical or spiritual,
within this realm."

That your Majesty's memorialists, in common with
their countrymen, have felt the deepest regret that
the occupation of Otaheite has already threatened to
interrupt the cordial understanding existing between
the Governments of France and Great Britain, and
they sincerely rejoice that the pacific relations of the
two countries have, notwithstanding, been happily
preserved : they are gratified also, that their mis-
sionaries in the island, amidst the peculiar difficulties
of their position, employed their best influence, though
in vain, to prevent the effusion of human blood ; and
they fervently pray, that under your Majesty's pro-
longed and peaceful reign, the people of your great
and enlightened kingdom may continue to reciprocate
with the subjects of Greatitritain the practical express

When we commenced writing this article, and after
bestowing all the thought we were able to command in
considering the nature and construction of this oath, and
its bearing on all the points it so amply embraces, our
impression was, that the words " or ought to have," in-
troduced after the assertion that the Pope " hath not,"
was merely the expression of an opinion, in contrast to
the declaration of the preceding fact. More mature re-
flection has convinced us that this impression was er-
roneous ; and, if we be correct in our interpretation, it
only serves to show the extreme care, skill, and astute-
ness with which the oath was framed, and the more than
ordinary precautions taken to secure the result sought,
and to effect the object for which it was administered ;
and goes to strengthen our view with respect to those
who already Wet or who may hereafter be called upon,

to take it. For the party not only swears that the Pope
bath not any power or authority, ecclesiastical or
spiritual, within this realm—which refers to the fact—
but by declaring " that he ought not to have such,"
binds himself to its prevention, and becomes a party
in opposing any and every measure calculated to bestow
Such.
Although we have exceeded our usual limits, we have
by no means exhausted the subject, which, it will be
seen, is one of paramount importance; and to which we
must of necessity return. We have stated the case
calmly and dispassionately ; and if our views be cor-
rect, there can be no doubt that the " oath of supre-
macy" is virtually abrogated, if not formally repealed.
We are by no means prepared to accuse Sir Robert Peel
with having done this intentionally ; but if the very ex-
istence of Pr. testantism be perilled, and the rights and
privileges of its pr..fessors be abridged or destroyed by
ignorance, a e should like to know what degree of culpa-
bility attaches to his late procceeding; the. alternative of
this abrogation or repeal being, that Protestants, s
cannot conscientiously take the oath, are disqualified
thereby for all those privileges, rights, and functions for
the enjoyment and exercise of which the law requires
the taking of the oath as a preliminary ; yea, as fully
disqualified as the Roman Catholics were previously to
1829, bh the oaths of which they were relieved by the
Roman Catholic Relief Bill.

One word in conclusion :--If the oath of supremacy
cannot longer be conscientiously taken by Protestants—
the law pronouncing that in certain eases it is absolutely
necessary that it should—let us see the position in which
Protestants are placed. There can be no succession of
clergymen of the Church of England in Irelsnd. There
can be no members of the professions - no magistrates;
no Protestants can accept of office under the Crown, or
take their seats as representatives of the people. The
privilege of electing temporal Peers abolished ; Pro-
testantism is virtually put down ; and the Established
Church actually annihilated—for, supposing the scruple
to be well founded, none but Roman Catholics can exer-
cise the several functions pertaining to each—for they
alone are exempted from taking the oath.
Suppose for a moment that the present apparent
movement in I..eland is the result of diplomacy on the
one hind, an.l deceit on the other—we d m't say it is—
but supposing such a thing possihle, what will the people
of England say to their Prime Minister for duplicity or
ignorance ?

IRELAND.
REPEAL ASSOCIATION.
DUBLIN, JAN. 27.—The weekly meeting of the Asso-
ciation was held this day in the Conciliation Hall.
On the motion of Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, M.P., the chair
was taken by James Kelly, Esq., M.P. for Limerick.
The CHAIRMAN, after thanking the meeting for the
high compliment, said he was not only an admirer of his
native country, but he was, moreover, a representative of
the people in the Imperial Parliament, and considered
that he attended to their interests best by a constant at-
tendance at the meetings of the Association. The people
reposed the most entire confidence in the Association,
and placed reliance in their counsels and advice, and
looked to them in the hour of danger as to a pilot to
steer them in the course they should pursue. There
was another good reason -why the people should have
implicit confidence in the Association : inasmuch as
there was considerable danger attached to those gentle-
men who addressed them, as they did not know the
minute that a construction might be put on their words
which they were never intended to bear—that, he said,
was no visionary idea—a gentleman (Mr. John O'Con-
nell) then present could bear testimony to that fact—
(Hear, and cheers)—the people of England, them-
selves, could also bear a similar testimony—and after
the decision of their law Lords, shame should rest upon
the English people if they neglected to call for pu-
nishment upon the abettors of that injustice.—(Hear.)
There had been a great deal of disturbance in a district
of the country to which he (Mr. Kelly) belonged; but he
was rejoiced to say that it was now upon the decrease ;
he considered that the Government had left themselves
open to the suspicion of being abettors of those dis-
turbances, by having superseded those magistrates in
whom the people had confidence, for in his opinion that
act had tended much to the increase of crime. The Hon.
Gentleman mentioned having received several com-
munications from the south of Ireland, approving of the
proposed deputation to the see of Rome, and the delight
expressed by the writers at the intimation received of
Mr. John O'Connell and Lord Ffrench being two of the
delegates named. lie concluded by sa)ing that he
never felt more certain of the success of their cause than
at that moment, and that success, he alleged, depended
entirely upon themselves, and if the people continued to
pursue the same course, and by conciliation and kindness
to win nv'r those who were._ opposed to them they
would before long have their I' arhament assembled in
Dublin.—(Cheers.)
Mr. S. O'BRIEN handed in the subscription of Mr.
Caleb Powell. M.P., and several remittances.
• Mr. O'CoNNELL entered the hall and was received
with the usual manifestations of regard. The Hon.
Gentleman then handed in several sums of money,
amongst them the subscription of John Hyacinth Tal-
bot, and 231. from Wateriord, per Alderman Delahunty,
being the sum collected in that city during the present
month.

Mr. GRATTAN, M.P., addressed the meeting at much
length. He regretted that he was not present at the
last meeting, so that he might have had the pleasure of
hearing the speech of the Liberator, but he red it in
the newspapers, and agreed in almost every word it con-
tained. He thought they should follow up with increased
perseverance the glorious cause of repeal, for every hour
convinced him more firmly that Ireland never could be
prosperous until she had the management of her own
affairs. In seeking for repeal they would evince no hos-
tility towards England or English interests. Their ob-
ject was to benefit their own country, and not have her
legislated for by those who called them a filthy and
felonious rabble, and used other epithets of an equally
atrocious character. The promises held out at the union
were never realised, and the Irish people had a right to
say, give us the benefit of the bond or cancel it.
Mr. O'CoNNELL said he had to draw attention to a
very lengthy document : it was too late to read it at full,
but it would, he trasted, appear in the papers the follow-
ing morning ; he might, however, mention the nature of
it. It was a correspondence that had taken place between
the Right Rev. Dr. Hynes, Administrator Apostolic of
British Guiana, and the Governor of that Colony, by
which it appeared that he would not allow the Catholic
bishop to dismis, a catechist who held a kind of Govern-
ment appointment under him, without a trial of his capa-
bilities before the Governor.

Mr. DOHENY handed in some money, and read a do-
cument which contained an allusion to Bishop Murray,
at the mention of whose name there were groans from
some portion of the assembly, which Mr. O'Connell at
once repudiated.

Mr. bOMENY said that throughout the country repeal
reading-rooms were being established, and that one of
the principal books read in those places would be O'Con-
, nell's Memoir of the Saxon and Irish ; and he thought
that premiums should be given to those who were best
conversant with the facts contained in that work.
Mr. O'Cosazem. said he had to apologise for not
having the report of the Parliamentary Committee
ready upon the question as to whether the Irish Repeal
Members ought to attend their places in the House of
Commons during the coming session. Mr. Grattan
had told them what he thought of the English Parlia-
ment, and read to them what honest Tom Duncombe
said upon the same subject ; indael they all knew that
there was little chance of the success of any popular
measure in the present Parliament, particularly if it
were Irish. There were some things said by Mr.:Grat-
tan in which he did not agree ; he was not against a
connection with England. Under any circumstances he
was for the golden link of the Crown—one sovereign and
two Parliaments. Now the question was, should
they attend in the corning session or not ? He
would not pronounce any opinion of his own until
he consulted with his friends around him ; but
he might with truth observe that, whether they at-
tended or not, the result would be the same—there would
be no measure of substantial justice passed with regard
to Ireland. They could not know what would be put
into the mouth of the Queen in the speech which she
was to deliver from the throne in a few days, but they
might anticipate that, whilst it contained a great deal
about the peace of Europe, the friendly relations with
foreign powers, the increase of' the revenue and the pros-
perity of England, there would be no allusion to the
prosperity of Ireland, because it did not exist, and he
&tired that there would not be even a promise held out
as to any good measure being introduced with regard to
it. He would not say that he had made up his mind as
to whether he would go or not, for the truth was that
he had not done so, but when he and his metfriendscome
and
had the benefit of each other's opinions, they would

that could be done as well in the absence of Irish Mem-

was the hatred of Ireland and of the agitators on the
part of some Members, that they would vote against the
motion for inquiry merely for the sake of a personal
triumph, though they might be disposed not to vote at
all, or to vote the other way, if the agitators were not

of exciting hatred against the English. Such was
not the fact ; he had written it to show the virtues of
the Irish, but he could not have done so without giving
in detail the crimes and atrocities of the English party,
who had always been predominant in Ireland. He
would be sorry to excite hatred against the Eng-
liah people, but he would excite, if possible, not only
the -hatred, but the execration of the civilised world
against the canting, cruel, and sanguinary party that
had always trodden on Ireland against such wretches
