At a Meeting of the Magistrates of the County
Galway, held at Atheury, on Thursday. the 17th
of February, 1820, the High Sheriff in the
Chair,

Resolved unanimously, That we entirely concur in the un-
animous opinion expressed by forty-nine Magistrates assem:,
bled at Loughrea, that the re-enactment of the Insurrection
Hill, is alone able to check the present rapid progress of dis-
sati,faction in this County.

Resolved unanimously, That we have heard with extreme
surprise and regret that it is not in the contemplation of his.
Majesty's Government to propose this measure at the ap-
proaching Meeting •of Parliament, and that our County is
thereby suffered to remain subject to a system destructive
alike to the lives, the property, the loyalty, and the morality
of its inhabitants.

Resolved unanimously, That the Government of this Coun-
try will, by a perseverance in this line of conduct, destroy
all confidence in its inhabitants, to afford protection to
those who oppose the progress of the present disturbances.
Resolved unanimously, That deeply impressed with a sense
of the very danierous and dislurbed state of this County, tie
do again address the Lords Justices of this Kingdom respect-
fully, yet most earnestly, requesting them to give directions
that the Insurrection Act be forthwith brought forward in
Parliament.

Resolved unanimously, That in order that we may not
hereafter have reason to accuse ourselves of having omitted
any step %N bleb might have tended to the attainment of an
object of such vital importance, our Chairman be requested
to tran,mit a copy of these Resolutions to the Earl of Liver-
pool, and very earnestly to req►tcst his Lordship's immediate
attention thereto.
