THEIR LIVES AND TINES.
BY DIR. h. r. MADDEN,
AUTHOR Oh" TRAVELS IN THE EAST" &c. &C. 4,


AUTHOR OF " TRAVELS IN THE EAST" &C. &C. &c.
"1his Work contains particulars never before
made public, respecting the plans, object, and con-
duct Of the United Irishmen; the means by which
their secrets were betrayed to the Government,
and their measures frustrated
"The collection of materials for this Work has
involved the labor of many years, during which
time DIR Madden three times visited America, and
obtained such authentic documents and information
as could only be procured where the survivors of
the United lrlshmen had sought and found shelter.
" 1t is the beliefand hope of the author that the
time has arrived when this history may be written
without provoking the rancor of party, or lacer-
ting the feelings Of surviving relations "
The foregoing is the announcement made by the
London publishers of II work which will unGues-
tlonably, both on account of the great talents of
the author and his deeply intc csting subject, be
the most valuable that has been given to tho En-
glish public for many years.
Having taken pains to procure very early copy
from London, we shall issue it on the 10Th day Of
July next in double or treble number of the" New
WorId," at a price not exceeding 25 cents, al
though the original price is twenty one shillings
sterling. Thus will be within the ability of ev-
cry lover of liberty in the United Sates-of ere,
IRISH ciiscn-to procure n complete and anthem
tic account of the most brave though unfortunate
struggle for freedom that the world ever saw
The descendants, relatives, and friends of those
noble patriots, who were engaged in this struggle,
still exist in this country. II Is sufficient for US to
name TO New Workers the names of Thomas Adds
Enmet and DIR Macneven. Their memory will
never perish from amoug us. Had the contest for
IrppUOm N ~ hpv
engaged, been successful, it would have been dig
nlied with the name of Revolution, and not known
merely as The Irish Rebellion"
There is no period in modern history more re-
plete with stirring and pathetic Incidents 1t fur
nlshes the richest material for romantic narrative;
Tor the interest which exccs il social as well as
political Strife entered into the homes of men,
and danger was present ut their resides with his
feet upon the hearth But it Is unnecessary TO en-.
large upon topic, the mention of which is enough
OF itself TO excite the coolest reader. DR.. Mad
dcn'swork will undoubtedly meet the most highly
raised expectations, and be received with unyer
sal favor,
