TO THE INHABITANTS OF THE BOROUGH or iszEwn't.
Dublin Castle, Ort. 16, 1818.
GENTLEMEN,-4 feel, with a just sense of obligatnni, all the
kindness and 'confidence which tho elopiient Addri,” you
hat, dune me the hononr to transmit to me displays; and
I he you will be pleased to accept my sincerest acknowledg
meats for such a testimony of ',Our favourable opinion.
With the warmest wishes that can be entertained for the
trangitillity of Ireland and the happiness of her' people, I
most cordially Sympathise; and it will be, not only my duty,
tint my highest gratification, to employ, for the promotion of
those objects, the share of power which is entrusted to me in
the Administration of this CoUntry, and whatever abilities I
may- yotsess.

•
of those abilities, hoverer, permit me to avow the con-
sciousness I feel, that your generosity has led you to form far
too sanguine an estimate; hut such as they are, they will
he devoted to the public service ; and I trust, Gentlemen,
You will think it'strtficient for me to offer you this assurance
without going into the questious to which you have alhided,
—questions, indeed, the discussion of which, however bite-
re&t d 0,,, not .owu withio the sphere of the duties belong-
ing to my (Mica.

Of the effects to be produced by my endeavours, you have
been pleased, in great liberality to Me, to indulge in large
anticipations. Whilst I Must beg to guard myself against
being understood to become a party to whatever those anti-
cipations may involve of reflection on the past, I willingly re-
cognise in theta a delineation of objects, which, I am well
aware, ought ever to be in my view : and it shall be my anxi-
ous study, as far as my powers may he competent, to promote
amongst all classes of the community the spirit. of concilia-
tion, which is, I trust, already progressive, atl.to maintain
the equal and pore administration of justice. I utn,t !.tither
express my firta persuasion, that such also is the disposition
of those with whom I am more particularly called to ac►, as
well as of those who direct the Councils of the Empire; ant!
that, 011 whatever other points there may be a difference of
opinion, on the principle of conducting the Government
with a conciliatory spirit, and of dispensing the existing
laws with strict impartiality, there is but one uniform sen-
timent.

In a situation arduous in itself, as well as new to toe, I
feel that I, shall stand in need of much indulgence; but so
long as my intentions are.unimpeaclied, I shall not despair
of it from a genirrous people; and, sensible as I am, both
of my own deficiencies and of the difficulties of that situation,
I yet in it such elevating motives to exertion, as will
aiial animation to all the dictates of duty.
I hare the honour to be,
Gentlemen, your obliged and obedient Servant
