P4RIS, FEB. 17.—The 'tine trouble' of
4.'railee, and the abuse of public faith, nailer an
the different foims of Government, have infused
lbcli distrust in the minds of all classes, that nei-

Give me your rote? What ! think you rue a fool?

Sell me your vote ? that will I do still less—

I will nut be a bong!it or unbought tool—

The Candidates, in spite of noise and press,
I'll hear—and, free from party spirit, cool
Decide as hest suits England's happirrels,
Do what I will—thus much at least is plain,
That yuur attempt but merits my disdain.

There are the Hustings—what a wild confusion !
Reformers, blacklegs, thieves together huddled-
Is this, then, freedom ? .What a theme to muse on !
Thrs mob let loose, uproarious, mart, and toddled.
And such scenes annual ; oh ! absurd delusion !
Shall peace and order thus each year lid troubled!
Shall liberty be made the vain pretence ?
Forbid it heaven ! ter bid it cowman sense

Shall each and all of this rile nmitey crowd
Be dubbed us meet to choose nu? Legislittors ?

Shall they by whom such folly's dtsavow'd
Be call'd Court-sycophants and FreedOtu-haters ?
Let saner men exalt their voice aloud,
And drown the nonsense of reforming praters-=-
But hark—" Hontioust: and Liberty—huzZa"—
He speaks—attend to what he has to say—

" I've oft been nsli'd, (says he) if my opinion

" None more than I can hate a vile Court-minion,

Tho' you as carnage of St. JOHN may view,
Yet, Hontioust, I'll not hob-a-nob with you.

Continue to attend your riff-ruff Club-house;
Spout forth your pompous nonsense on Reform.
There gather Ruffians that would burn or rob house,
And change our quiet for rebellion's storm.
Still shall you be on out-hours, Mister Hosifotiss;

Such was of LAMB the candid peroration--

But I confess BUISOETT has done him wrong,
What room then can there be for hesitation ?
Quick to the Hustings thro' the gather'd throng,

Resolv'd at night to drink him in a bumper.

JOHN SACKBOUSE.—Died on Sturdily evening
last, the 14th lust. JOHN SACKROUSE, aged 22, a
native of the west coast of Greenland. This
Eskimaux has occupied a considerable share of
the public attention, ant♦ his loss will be very ge-
nerally felt, lie had already rendered important
service to the country in the late Expedition of
Discovery, and great expectations were naturally
!untied of the utility which he would prove on the
•oyage about to sail fot• Batlin's Bay. The Ad-
miralty, \VIZI) great liberality and judgment, bad
ditected the greatest pains to he taken in his far-
ther education ; and he had been several months
in Edinburgh with this view, when he was seized
with a violent inflammation in the chest, which
carried him otf in a few days.—He was extremely
docile, and though rather slow in the attainment
ot knowledge, he was industriTis, zealous, and
cheerful, and was always grateful for the kindness
and attention shown to him. His amiable dispo-
sition and simple mariners had interested those
who had opportunities of knowing hitn perso-
nalty in a way that will not soon he forgotten,
To the public his loss, we feat, is irreparahle—
to his ft iends it is doubly severe, Just before his
death, the poor liskimatix said he knew he Tvas
going to die; that his father and mother had
died in the same way ; and that his sister, who
was the host ot all his relations, had just apperred•
to hir>•t and called him away.—(Edinbargh Lourant,

E74,‘,.\;tii,AtioST
OR, POPISH ASCENDANCY IN IRELAND.

By a CHURCH of ENGLAND CATHOLIC;.

[No. V.)
[Concluded from Frulay's SUN.) •
That Protestantism is considered by the Ronia-
fists as the disease and bane of this time, and to
be hunted down in all pos3isle ways, among the
many instances • which have so often occurred in
this Island, devoted to Popery and emphatically
called Catholic Ireland, to prove it, I have un-
fait tonately to add a recent one, which occurred
so late as the 24th of last !natal'. I now recite
it verbatim trona a Lime; ick Paper of the 27th Ja-
nuary, iBl9.
[We have already inserted all the particulars of
this transactioo, as may be seen in Tile SUN of
the 34 inst. it]
Here we see the most abominable and savage
pet secution that human depravity can devise, ex-
ercised under the sauctiott of what Pottery deno-
minates Iteligion. Antipathy to Protestantism,
and the Established Church, cannot be carried
farther ; Ir exists without a single exception among
all classes of the Icipish Clergy in Ireland, from
the Most Reverend and Reverend the Titular
Primate, down to the meanest Popish Priest in-
closive, and is invariably exhibited when oppor-
tunity tasrs. A ludicrous and vulgar instance of
this filmd occurred a few years since in the little
Town of Ross Carbery. When the Organ' of the
Cloud) was erected, the novelty of such an in-
atrument naturally attracted the Curiosity of the
inhabitants, and many Roma!) Catholics went in
to hear it played rm. This reacbed the cars of their
pious P'rig's,, Father Make, as they called him.
Such a deviation front the roles of the Mother
Church, as entering into an heretic place of Wor-
ship, although Divine Service was not perfotmiug
at the time, was too serious a crime to be forgiven,
and could only be atoned for by penance ; and
this truly Pious and Reverend arsciple of Popery,
as well to wipe away the scandal lie personally
felt itt such an offence being committed under his
very nose, as to set a lasting example to his flock,
ordered every iudividitul of those who had polluted
themselves by listening to such anhaliowed and
heretical sounds, to walk bare-footed and bare-
headed on the following Sunday to the village of
Timoleagne, fifteen miles distant, and there to
repeat a certain number of Creeds and Ave Marias
at an old Monastery in that neighbourhood. This
truly laughable ceremony was actually performed,
and witnessed by severalGentlethen of the district,
to their no small amusement.
Let not my Readers be astonished at such de•
basing mummery; nothing is too absurd for these
invaders of the human faculties to attempt, and
no where do they more fully exercise the power
they usurp than in beland. The policy of Popery
has been at all times to procure fit instruments
for accomplishing its object, .Dorninion; and Ire-
land is the theatre on which site expects to exhi-
bit it—here the first blow against our Constitu-
tion will he struck,' should Papists obtain the
power ; and the supineness of the Protestants has
already afforded them but too mach reason to
consider that Power to be near at hand. Already
do they calculate on returning; to Parliament
men devoted to their Ireland ; this they cao do
by the bsohite• cononsad of the majority of the
Electors. ,'Thanks to the weakness of giving
Papists the privilege.
What then will it be, if men of their awn re-
ligion are allowed to sit in Parliament ? No Pro-
testant Candidate in Ireland can expect a vote from
a Roman Catholic, the thing is morally impossi-
ble ; so that we may necessarily conclude, that
before 20 years revolve, not 20 Irish Members of
the Established Church will he returned to Par-
liament. How it may be in Great Britain, I can-
not take upon me to judge; but I may certainly
infer, that from the intriguing spirit of Popery,
and its dominion over its votaries, many of them
will he elected; but it is in Ireland the sting will
be felt. The bright day brings forth the adder,
and the meridian of Popery will be the extin-
guisher of Protestantism. The interval in its as-
cendancy will be a galling period to those loyal
men, whose forefathers so bravely repelled
the attacks on our. excellent Constitution, bore
the heat of the day, anti fought the battles of the
State against its foes, The Protestants of Ire-
land saved the country in the last rebellion, and
they will beat all times at their posts when danger
IllaV require their services. Are these men then
to be neglected ? Are they to be exposed to the
derision of their enemies, for what other can it
lie, when the Civil Otlices of the. State shall be
filled by Papists Their numbers, their indefa-
tigable intrigueS, and thirst of power, warrant
the conclusion. The Protestants will theft have
the mortifying spectacle of Popish processions ex-
hibited on the highways ; probably, the Lord
Mayor of Dublin, preceded by the Titular Arch-
bishop, with the Host, the Crosier, and nil the
attendant mummeries, so repognant to she feel-
ings of a Protestant, or any man not debased by
superstition.
It may he asked, if Protestants apprehend 'such
things, why are Petitions now and then going
forward in favour of Catholic Emancipation
This question is easily answered. The chief agents
in such Petitions are men who have private views
to carry, whose interests it is to cultivate lats..'
polarity, whose trades require the support of the
lower orders ; a hanker, a brewer, or a whiskey
distiller, hatol about these Petitions to such as
they !Link cannot safely refuse their signatures.,
as such a refusal would subject them to the dis-
agreeable alternative of losing many of their cus-
tomers. This is certainly a most base and unfair
way of dealing with men. A Protestant grocer,
later, or tobacconist, its such Case, would be-
come a marked man, and.his shop shunned by his
Popish neighbours, This forms but a part of the
unfortunate state of this country; its general

• The publication of this horrid outrage has, it SettliS,
brought forth a Letter from the Popish Priest here alluded
to, PATRICK HOGAN, denying altogether the statement, as
Mr as ts'els meant to reflect censure on himself in his visita-
tion to Mr. licaagar, which he attempts jesuitically to
palliate, as being within the line of his duty. This Letter
has led to the full confirmation of the facts as laid down in
the statement, having produced an answer from the tlnve
Clergymen of the Church of England, the Reverend W. rt
Hoare, the Reverend ‘Cm. Mannsell, and the ReveremiTtkr.

state seems to be little knoten to the great ms-
Josh yof oar fellowssubjectS lit Britain ; hitt they,
should know it, and too mach publicity cannot
be given to it. Then inform them that we want
a better order of peasantry, and that this cannot
be obtained so long as they are held in darkness
by their priests ; that this unenlightened state can
only be improved by the residence of more liberal
and ellliUhfencd men in each parish, men who,
from eductvion and profession, are friends to the
Constitution, I mean tire Clergy of the Esta-
blished Church. The Rector should reside in his
Parish. To him and his family the peasantry may
look up for example and protection. His pre-
sence would check the tyranny ,of the Popish
Priest, whose character, as already observed, is
absolute courroul, which lie exercises even with
manual ctiastisemente as his passion may disect.
Possessor of their thoughts and actions, 'by auri-
cular confession, and keeper of their conscience, he
stands so eminent in their eyes, that they view.hint
with an almost idolatrous veneration. ,Obediences
to the Most trivial rites and ceremonies of his
Church he rigidly enforces, whilst the Command-
ments of Gon seem but a secondary object, and
are but too frequently neglected. Their morality,
of course, chiefly consists in abstinence from meat
ou the forbidden days, genuflexions and prayers
to Saints, and periodical confessions. Sectecy
forms the ground-work of these private confer-
ences ; this the confessed thirst not violate cm
psis of eternal damnation ; but it may be fairly
supposed that the confessor is at liberty to divulge
any part to his conscience keeper, for it seems
this depot of thoughts ant actions ascends regu-
Isrly from the lowest step of the Priesthood to the
head of the flourish Church, where it all centers ;
thus the Pope becomes acquainted with what is
necessary he should know relative to the progress
of its discipline,. &se
This confession of the under Priest to his supe-
tins, and of his to his Bishop, and so on, brings
to my recollection a critions anectlote of a man
half inclined to renounce the errors of Popery.
When going to confession, he remonstrated against
'the expense, as well-
as the necessity of confession
altogether ; he was answered by his Priest that it
was a ride in the Church not to be dispensed with,
that he himself confessed to his superior and paid
him regularly, sod that the Bishop confessed in
turn to the Pope, whom Ire paid also; and pray to
whom does his Holiness confess, to whom but to
Gon—and must GOD get payment tut.
you blockhead, on pecuniary offer can be made

The residence of die Protestant Clergy in
their several parishes should be made an indis-
pensible duty-1 may almost say a sine qua nun
of their livings. The general neglect of this
greatly contribates to the growth of Popery, the
arrogant and intriguing spirit of ins Priests, and
the consequent incivilizAtion of the country. The
Parish Churches, for the want of this protection,
exhibit a melancholy appearance, and stand a re-
proach to the established religion: many of them
are suffered to fall into decay ; here and there a
broken whitlow, and not unfrequently a leaky
roof; the Rector, who probably derives a living
of some loonheds a year from the p-irish, resides
in Softie th9ffint town or city, and visits it „ben
he has occasion to regulate his tithes ; be dele-
gates a Citrate, who, for the -paltry annuity of
perhaps fifty or sixty ponds, hurries once a week
over the service before a congregation of two or
three dozen parishioners at most, so much are the
Protestants slimioished, whilst the Popish Priests
can reckon as many hundreds each Sunday arid holi-
day. li may not be expected that the mere resi-
dence of tire Rector will cause any converts
among the Popish inhabitaots, but it will sorely
prevent tine middle order of Protestants, if there
be any remaining, from being tampered with by
the Priest to desert their Church ; for it is to be
presurited that their Clergyman, being on the
spot; would not be indifferent to such an attempt.
The resident Rector, who will have the interest
of his parish at heart, will encourage the resi-
dence of Protestants there as much as possible.--
The Clerk, the Sexton, and others in the service
of the Church, should be residents; his Steward
and iris domestics should be Protestants, as also
such mechanics as may be required in the parish;
the Schoolmaster in particular should be one, for
on him much depends, It would be a wise mea-
sure in Government to bestow certain grants nil
obtain so desit able an object in the interior of Ire-
land, anti mote particularly in the province of.
Munster, as the increase ,of Protestantism. Let
then the state of the Established Church in Ire-
land be'ipmediately- brought before Parliament.
The investigation of this'ettost important subject
must no doubt produce the very best comic-
Tiences. This, indeed, worild,be worthy of Par-
liamentary attention, and give us an additional
security of longer ettjoymeot of our excellent
Constitution.. Let us hear no more those cuckoo
notes of Catholic Emancipation—let us substitute
more salute' y.words, and wisely act upon them ;
her the order of the day be. the ['coleslaw Interest
in Church and State, and an humble and rational
Address to Parliament to protect it against the
orachinatiotis of Popery.
I now conclude with a solemn appeal to those
