Mseh has been written and said, and
,n-,h;op done Ia Ireland for repeal OF
4. act Of Union. The principal causes,
/ Ear as we can discover, OF this late loud
Inc and cry for distinction, are the dis
r,,sfs which have been occasioned in Ire
I hnd as in England by the late great COM
mrcial failures; the electioneer'ng spirit
rkch induces candidates to make use OF
h. papular CRY in order to obtain seats in
Parliament; the distresscs Of the maaufac-
Nrrr which lead him to hope for better
times ia aay change that may take place
The I'd ant; union spiri, and the old Tom
Pain spai, against England. Vet we can
r conceive how the repeal Of the act OF
uaon is % relieve them. They complain
that the English have not fulfilled their en-
esements made at the time of the union;
particularly the emancipation promised the
CathoIics that the Irish Parliament which
tcnsented to the act Of union were not au-
|hocised by people 70 aRnihilate their own
power; that an fish Parliament alone can
fully understand the state Of Ireland < make
suitable internal laws ,&c.&c.Yet the evils Of
Which they complain cannot be removed by
The re, establishment of an Irish P arlamene.
The principal Jest cause of complaint is
That OF the Catholics: but their situation
TAbe none benefited by repeal OF the
union act. The tyranny and injustice ex-
trcsed by the British Parliament towards
@e Catholics meets the apprehension of eve
Fhbsral mind. The deprivation Of natu-
hllights on account Of religious belief is
now known and acknowledged to be but
@s remains of former higotry and religious
Intolerance. The most liberal-minded po-
Hac'sns in England do not disown the IN
lsfbee of their laws towards the Catholics );
s Alre desirous OF placing them in the en-
plEent Of their natural and civil rights a
'aI'y rs the elect, the believers in the thirty
'i0s articles.-Their civil rights are known
'ad acknowledged. 1t is monstrously
) 9f7anlo and unjust policy that depriyes
"''n of'hose tights. The tyranny of Ma
: towards th- Pfosestaats, capital punt sh-
.''at' excepted, was scarcely more unjust
van that now used by the British. Tho

they (his pss'y) were determined that the Cd
boundary Iiie should continue, ard that the
crossing ii would be attended with bad conse-
quences. The Governour replied, that since
he had been candid enough to avow this, hs
would be equally So with him the President
he was convinced would never allow that the
lands On the Wabash we're the property Of
any other tribes than those which had occupi-
ed and lived upon them since the white peo-
pie first came into America, and as the titles
to the lands lately purchased were derived
from those tribes by fair purchase, he might
rest assured that the right OF the Uniled
States would be supported with the sword.
We have always been Of opinion that the
confederacy which has been formed by the
prophet, the effect of British intrigue
and we have never doubted that the secret
agents of that power, which are known to ex-
Isl in every part OF America, but particularly
in the Indian country, gave 1t all the counte-
nance III their power. But We could scarce
ly prevail upon ourselves to think that any
American Was engaged in this ncfarious pro-
ject We fear however, that it Is but TOO truc
and if the speech which We understand was
made by the Chief of the Wea tribe, to cap
tains Floyd and Whitlock of the u. States
troops, be correct, we fear that there is some
deep laid scheme OF villainy on foot to alien
ate, from us that hitherto faithful Tribe.
The editor has conyersed with Goyernour
HARRISON, and is happy in being able to assure
his fellow-citizens, that v is the Covernour's
opinion, that notwithstanding the stroug talk
of Tecumseh, there is less danger Of AN Ia
dian war;. than there was sone weeks ago.
He has every reason to believe that the
Prophets party is loosng ground, and that
soon as they find that the United States
are determined to take possession of the new
purchase, they will give up every idea of
contendng for it.
The GoyernOur has ordered on detach-
ment of troops, consisting of one hundred
and twenty men, which are now upon tho
Ohio, and which were made subject to his
order by the Secretary of War, and it is his
intention, if the government approves of it,
TO establish one or two strong posts upon the
Wabash, dbove this.
