deluded or disheartened—let the wise and disinterested
of humbler station, although of acknowledged, well-
directed influence, assume the office which seems aban-
doned to them, and keep the Protestant people of Ire-
land from division, despondency, and intemperance--
keep them, in God's name, and by his help, united; ob-
servant of law while it exists, and prepared for an
emergency in which law may be reft of all authority.
Such is our counsel. Muck more willingly would we re-
commend, if the times admitted, the obliteration of all
party badges and distinction? ; much more pleased should
we be to see Irishmen, of all classes and creeds, harmo-
niously united as one people ; but when we see a power-
ful confederation formed, to effect a revolution, which,
if it find Protestants unprepared, will be to them exter-
mination—when we hear from the government of the
country, avowals which warn us that there is no help in
them—and when we are compelled to confess to ourselves
that such avowals are rendered more menacingly instruc-
tive by the acts and arguments in which their spirit is
exemplified—ice feel that Irish Protestants cannot look
for aid beyond themselves, until they are, themselves, in
a state to prove that they are little, if at all, dependent
on others for assistance ; and, therefore, we urgently re-
commend Protestant union—union of the best, and most
desirable description, if the natural leaders of the peo-
ple take their proper part in promoting and cementing it
—but, in any case, uistiorr—and, if the nobility and
higher orders of the gentry refuse or withhold their aid—
A UNION OF THE PROTESTANT DEMOCRACY.
