SIR,
81 ought to inform you, that I really haze
no authority to give or refufs permifion to you
or any other foreigner to 60 to the United
States; the admifion and reGdence of fran
gers in that country being a matter, that, bya
late law excluively belongs to the P,eadent.
1t ~ true that the government of this country
IN Inc conf of the iaR uaar =
my interference, gave me an afurance, that a
particular defcription of perfons in Ireland,
VINO 1t was underffood were going to the Unit
ed States, fhould not be allowed to proceed
without or content: this ~refraint would
be withdrawn in favour of individuals
aga'nf whole emigration l hould mot Object:
and l conclude, that it is upon this fuppoftion.
mat you have taken the trouble to commune
cate to me your defre to 60 and refde in the
United States.-Vvithout prefuming 70 form an
opinion on the fuhjed of the late difurbances
IN Ireland, l entertain a dihind one in relation
to the political ~ftuation Of my own country.
In common with others, we have felt the in
anencs OF the changes that have fucceGively
taken place in France, and, unfortunately. a
portion OF our inhabitants has erroneou0y fup-
Polsd that our civil and political inhitutions as
wen as our national policy, might he improved
by a clote imitation of France. This opinion.

l am forty to make the remark, and baj,

large proportion of the emigrants from Ireland.
ana especially in our middle States, has, upon

tachment to Freedom, are unable to appreciate
thoie iaiutary %reltraiDts without which IL de-

lay that the Irhh emigrants are more national
