SWABIAN OF IRELAND.
COPY OF A LUTTIR FROM LICUTIVAINIT COLONIIL MAC-
DONAGN REMDING AT PARI3, TO THIS MAYOR Of

14111 WWI AILIOUDISSIMINT,
"Citizen Mayor—l have the honour to fend. you
36 francs as a patriotic gift towards building %rani-
port veils or flat bottomed boats, in order to m ake
a decent either in England, ar Ireland, my unfor-
tunate country,oppreffed by the Englith for thefe two
hundred years pall.
" Scarcely will our troops fet foot in Ireland when
they will be joined by three millions of Roman Ca-
tholics, who wait only for an opitortAnity to
hake
of the yoke of the Engfifh Government, whicob-
flinately salutes to them both civil emancipation and
the enjoyment of the rights of roan. The Mellor of
Hanover • • • • • 4', has declared, as well as the Bi-
fhops and the majority of his Council, that he would
never confent to the emancipation of the Roman Ca-
tholics of Ireland ; and ft was this determination
which engaged Mr. Purr, according to his own con-
feffion in-Parliament, to quit the Miniliry.
" If then. Citizen Mayor, we can be able to fepa-
rate Ireland from Great Britain, which is very poi%
fible, without a formidable navy, the Englifh Go-
vernment will for ever tole the power of laying
flacks in the way of the commerce of France, Spain,
Holland, and other Maritime Powers, and we (ball
inevitably mint from it the empire of the leas, in as
much as we dull deprive it in an inliant of to,ooo
failors, whom it forces on board the Britifh (hips, in
in
ite of themfelves ; together with f millions of
habitants, 30,000 foldiers, and theourmeans of vic-
tualling its fleets with Itith beef, pock, butter, and,
1 cheefe, with which it now fupplies its marine.
" The greateft evil which can beat a nation is
that of being governed by weak men, with whom the
general interefl ever gives way to the private one.—.
If twenty years fence, when the French and Span&
fleet obliged the Englifti to fly and leek °teller in the
pal of Plymouth, the Miniftry of Louis the {6th I
had poffeffed energy fufficient to cattle 30,000 men to
be landed in Ireland, inftead of thteatening England
with a decent, France, as well as the other Powers,
might ere now have freely enjoyed the commerce of
the fear in the four quarters of the world, and the'
Catholics of Ireland would have been emancipated.
" In reading the Hiftory of England by How 141
that of Ireland by Dour Cum, and the Works of
SWIFT (works to be met with at the National Library
at Paris), one perceives the vexations and metres
exercifed by the Englifb over the Roman Catholics
within thefe two hundred years pail, and which are
Rill perpetuated by the moll revoking fanatieifm.-
CIOOIWILL and King WILLIAM argot more than
;ono frith families of their property : I doubt whe-
ther even the Hiftory of the Turks offers many ex.,
amples of Co ftupid a tyranny.
" I have likewife the honour to addrefs to you,'
Citizen Mayor, 200 francs in order to be diftribeted
amongll the firft company of grenadiers er fufileers
who flail plant the French fiandard in England or
Ireland, provided that it be permitted me to make
one of the number ; I call upon my fellow country-
men to follow my example, milers they prefer heti%
(laves of the Englifh, aud to thew themfelves decry-
Mg of their fetter.. •
I here declare upon my honour, that no motive
lof ambition or intere(t has diftated thefe reflation*.
l'he lot of a generous people who has groaned for
centuries under an opprenive and cruel yoke, has
I alone fondled them to me, and it is another tribute
I pay to their virtues, their courage, and their mit-
fortunes*
" I have tranflated this letter into Englift; and fent
copies of it to Ireland. 1 have the honour to wain*,
with every fentiment of refpal,
ts Citizen Mayor, your fellow Citizen,
Paris. (Signed) " macoosacip."
P. S. To ftrengthen still more the obfervations I
have juft made, I conceive it may not be ufeldi to
add the oath of the Orangifis ;
" I do hereby (wear, that I will exterminate, as
far as 1 am able, the Catholics of Irelando."
Thus, at the prefent moment, when not one oth,er
Power in Europe oppreffes the Roman Catholics, do
th uthorize every atrocity committed
9gainfl them, by thefe fatellites of deipotifm.
• nits is a molt rob and wicked Edichood.
