HE history of Frgionrl is chequered narration
OF oppression, revolution, and ruin. The gal
liant sons OF Erin have alternately struggled in
attempts at liberty, and in the agcnies Of execu-
tioSS for treason. Unfeeling and misersbly de-
graded mustbe that mind, which can view with
our shuddering. valor, genius, and honor, pros.
tra'e before the onnipoence Of power. In this
devoted country, anarchy is the rule Of order
perjury and persecution the reward Of virtue.
The laborer goes forth to his work. and returns
to astarving family, the mournful messenger OF
accumulated want. The mechanic and the
manufacturer seek in their ingenuity the COM
forts OF competence, while extortion deprives
them Of the necessaries Of life. Humanity
