the address presented by the Presbyterian Synod
°f NUnster to the Lord Lieutenant. It breathes
a sPirit of true patriotism and Christian benevo-
ienee highly creditable to that body. Happy
"uld it be for this distracted country if such
Sentiments were adopted and acted upon by the
r~e Protestant population of Ireland. The
teerestPLY of his Grace will be read with deep in-
Friday, the 31st ult., a deputation of
idhisters and Elders from the Presbyterian
Yood of Munster waited upon his Grace the

we trust that means will be found,

nti these happy consequences, your ad-
"olyrstration in Ireland will add fresh lustre to the
aid • 11 of the ancient and noble house of Percy;
