ASSENTER—DISsENTER.

Every day we hear much talk and dispute of
Deist and of Christian, of Unitarian and of 'f rini-
tarian, of Methodist and Baptist, Protestant, Ca-
tholic, and Dissenter, but never, or very
unfte-
, .
quently, of a larger class or sect among mankind;
that the most numerous of all these, and almost
Ott 0...4 one that in a long life and ninny travels
I have always been able to meet with in Europe,
Asia,
,and Africa, alike the numerous, simple,
and well.mcaning sect of Assenters. These good
people, who have, I believe, in all times and clinics,
funned the most numerous class of all religionists,
should ,he well-considered ; and it would be well
too; iftheir numbers, without persecution, could
he greatly reduced, that they really join and truly
belong, in spirit, truth, and knowledge of the
dogmas, and really join in understanding and sin•
cere. belief, some one or more of the numerous
religions denominations of which they at present,
and in all times past, assenting professors merely,
caring little, because knowing nothing of creed
or distinction, and yet, by an unaccountable ec-
centricity, too often the most zealous and obsti-
nate in maintaining or opposing, or in proscrip-
tion and deprivatiou of the professors of each vas-
,
riety of ceremony, opinion,
and credenee'among
men.
This error and defect of unreasoning obstinacy
and ignorant adherence, has perhaps among no
sect since the Christian era been carried so tar, as
with.those of the Roman Catholic pontifical per-
suasiiiii, of which profession (it is for the must
part -a misnomer to
.call it persugsion), I could
never inert with one of any other class titan the
Asseotiog tribe, neither knowing much, nor real-
ly believing any of the hard terms, alio ruse doe-
trines, and tedious ceremonies proposed to them,
but too often and too much assenting, with too
much faith and confidence, that at/ out of their
tyitn pale, are, as Sir Thomas More quaintly
enough expresses it, " worthy to be turned, they
and tireir books, and all that hold with them ! !"
`phis is surely carrying an assenting faith a little
too tar ; rettirn, the Protestants, all their
day.ef •aseendattry iu nombils or power, that is,
the numerous sect of Assenters among them, who
neither know, nor lowlife, nor care,: how much
or how little of difiereoce or discrepancy of opi-
',lion is in dispute,---have.been ever equally' ready
to use the:" ratio coinburendi",.(as'ia St. George's
fields in 1784—the. puwerful jersneisiOn of the
ftili4Ot and its fire', and, even to this hour, are
hardly less zealous to maintain the unfounded pro•
position, that.the sincere Catholic, or the simple,
thciugh in France, Spain, and Portugal, fit to ,be
Et defended in his faith," is not in Britain or in
Deland to be "Puste-I," either as priest,• officer,
Magistrate, Corporatioo, or earliament Man,,
Minister, or Constable, though fit uttil
,worthy
enough to be used as,soldier.or sailor, servant or
labourer, and to act and drudge in all the lab°.

nor will here presume to conjecture, but leave it

TIIE LATE NIR. FRIZELL.

This most worthy gentleman, with the circum-

,sentment, though, in the distinguished bionaoitY
Of his nature, it bait ever been his study to bene-
fit the poor of the neighbourhood in which he re-
sided. In the late rebellion he had the misfortune
to be takin by the rebels, and brought to Studio,
boyne, but the barn being too full to contain,any
31lore victims,be was ordered to be shot outside.
_He. w4s, however, rescued by sotne.who were etc..
quainted with his excellent character and humane
*position, when he was on his.knees to be metro
tWreti there. He afterwards took shelter in the
town of. Wexford, teliere he was again token by
the rebels, and brought onion the Bridge to be
piked- and thrown into the water ; but when it
came within three of his turtkto undergo the bloody
sentence of assassinatjon; the alarm was given
that the rebels were beaten on Vinegar Hill
(Enoiscerthy), and that the King's troops were
advancing oq,.Yexfotd. The Watetfotd Mirror
