considering the length and severity of his illness,

for, considering tie melancholy loss by which it
was occaSfoned. His noway wore over his mourn-
log great coat, and seemed 10 derive much

lied, but aot at all agitated, on this interesting oe-
casino. In short, we may confidently nay, atilt his
MAJEsTY's progress towards a CpEllpllle recovery is
in the highest degree satlafaCtory.

• We called the attention of our Readers on Satur-
,
d :y roan article in the Morning Chronicle, which,
for the ineorreoiness of its assertions, the weakness
of iti'reasoning, and' the' Mischievous tendency
,of
every part of it; lids, not been surpassed by a:ny
publication which,, for some years, has fallen under
our observation. The great objea ,of the writer of
the article in question-is, to nod some ground for
an inveaive against the present Minister*, and in
his eagerness to accomplish it, he has not only in-
volved himself in contradiaions, but he has actually
libellglaithose whose cause he professes to espouse.
The Morning Chronicle hasloi a long time profess-
.ed to support the claims of the RoManCatholies of
Ireland (more especially •when its friedds were out
.of (ace), atld it now attributes all the disorders and
Outragcs which are comucuitte4 its, Ireland to this
cause, viz. that complete emaneipation, Fes it is
called, is not granted to the IteaLtn Catholres ; or, as
it is sometimes termed, because they are still ,kept
iii a state of proip*ion. H any one had applied

empire.

these epithets to the situation in ,which that class of
his Majesty's subjeols were at the'connneneeffient
of the present reign, it would not perhaps have been
cagy to chew their' injustice ; but IL is worse than
absurd to apply theffi now, because, as, we stated .on
Saturday, his Majesty's reign has been one uninter-
rupted series of concessions to thorn, and we.are
sorry to tictd, that.every concession, has been til-
lowed by increased demands on the pan of the Ho-
man Catholics.

Our object at prerietlt is not, however, to enter
into tu investigation of the, claims of Roman
Catholics, but to onimadvert upon the article in the
Morning Chronicle of Saturdly. The writer, of that
article asserts, as we have already said, that all the
Miduight outrages, which at present disgrace Ireland,
proceed from the refusal to grant the claims of the
Catholics; that is to say, that the Roman Catholics,
whose cause he eipo OCti, and the loyalty of whose
cumin& he se frequently panegyrises, are the au-
thors of these atrocious rt6ls. He further adds, the!
they are arming and organizing themselves into a
military ahape, to:Obtain their demands by force.
NV:e big here to be distinaiy understood, that it i 3

the Morning Chronicle and not afe, who prefer thii
heavy accusation against the Roman Catholics of
Ireland. So far front preferring such .a
against that body of our fellow subjeds, we feel no
, . .
. hesitation in declaring, tnat we believe it to be un-
true. We have too' high a sense of the loyalty, of
the good sense, of the religious princiPles of the
Irish Roman Catholics, to ascribe, . to. them
'such conduEt, and therefore our observations arc
dhecka not to the principles. and eondUa
.of
the Irish Cat bones, as we understand them, but
to the principles and condud• which their advo-
cate, the Morning eh/rankle,. ascribes.to
We should atiribute the disorders Which unfortu-
wady pre ail in some distrids in Ireland, not to the
Roman Cathol,es, but to a Party, small we trust and
in numbers, but indafitigable in its di signs
and atiive in its operations, which secks Wit over-
throw
of all Government, and which, instead of • be-
trig influenced by religious feeling, only ot:lltes ute of
it as an instrument to promote, its ultimate views,
which are as repugnant 'to the principles of religion
as they are hostile to the existence of kgitimate Go-
vernment.

Wrili
regard to the claims which the Irish no-
man Catholics have preferred, we have'already semi
.wedo not mean to discuss them ; they have, in:coo,-
mon..,vith the rest`Of his Majesty's subj.:As, rigs t,
if they feel themselves aggrieved, to petition Parlia-
ment, where the merits `of their case will be fully
di,ctissed and fairly decided upon. If the causes.
which Yed to the Revolution in 1688, have ceased
to operate; if the. religious -apprehensions which in-
fluenced' the minds of the great men Who brought
aboM that event ought no longer to be entertained ;
if the alarin which was ,entertained of the influence
of the Pope, when he wasan.independent. Prince,
has become groundless now that 'he is a. pas-
sive instrument in the hands of our powerful
anti—implacable enemy ; in if . all

Of 'the liontin Catholic claims have ceased to ope-

ing Chronicle, that professed :advocate of the. Irish
Catholics, state their case''hat they. are about to

selves fur the purpose of obtaining their detnands

Chronicle, to show that these diSterbances are at all
eonneaed with the continuanee of the present Mi-
nisters in Ofliee c because they most proceed from a
set of men, not a4uated by any religious „motives,
equally averse to the Opposition and to the. Mini-
sters, and; in,a. word, decidedly- hostile to :the esta-
