by att• implied compact with the Irish 9itikagat whop,
in the confidence which they *zed in in Act of dui-
Legislature of their country, conceived that theyir i
were effectually made safe every where by the 'la)
which enabled them to accept commissions -in Ire.l

in obedience to the lawful tossamods of thde emee..l

'exhibiting to the public the;deliverassio from them, oil
that useful, honourable, and meritorious class attar
fellow citizens who have taken, commissions under
4be Irish Act. The thanks_ of the public are due toi
the steadiness and perseverance of the Duke of Noe.l,
-.folk, who, by refusing to blend with this sect*
sore any thing from which Government walla;
ve withheld its concurrence, has secured to dust
public the certain and immediate benefit of it.—
Time common informer is now disabled from using
!the dreadful powers• with which the Test Act in-
vests him, to deprive the Irish subaltern of his means
of life; and the latter is enabled to perform his
duty wherever the public service may call him, free
, front all apprehension of the terrors of penal statist%'
levelled against his religions persuasion. The Mike
of Norfolk has always professed his readiness to
support and assist every measure necessary for t
complete relief of the Catholict, and did not adept
the suggestions of that highly-distinguished friend of
civil and religious freedom, Lord Holland, only
because he was apprehensive, that by introducing
ether objects, however laudable and desirable in
themselves, into his Bill, he would put to bazar&
! that salutary and important object, in which Go.'
vernmeut did concur, and which it was the sole pure
pose of his Bill to accomplish. We have thought it
our duty to the public to exhibit a view of this useful
statute for the spedier promulgation of it to the poblict
and particularly to the British army, is which there'
are so many of the brave and generous sons of Ire.
nd devoting themselves to the service of a country,
which it may uow be hoped will soon acknowledge
the legitimacy of their relation to it, and prove it-
self a benignant parent by extending to them, undi-
minished and unimpaired, the sacred inheritance of
its glorious Constitution.

An Act to relieve from the operation of the statute of the twen-
ty-fifth year of the reign of King Charles the Second, Intl-
tuled " An Act fur prevent* dangers which may happen
from Popish recusants," all such of his Majesty's Popish or
Roman Catholic subjects of Ireland, as by virtue of the Act
of Parliament of Ireland of the thirty-third year of his Ma-
jesty's reign, intituled " An Act for the relief of his Ma-

exercise, or enjoy, any civil or military ogees, or places of

Majesty's mid subjects are by the said Act of Parliament of
Ireland rendered capable.

,is enacted, " that it shall and may be lawful for
