Page 219 - They put such Protestants as are reported to be Orangemen to death, saving others upon condition of their embracing the Catholic faith. It is a Jacobinical conspiracy throughout the kingdom, pursuing its object chiefly with Popish instruments ; the heated bigotry of this sect being better suited to the purpose of the republican leaders than the cold, reasoning disaffection of the northern Presbyterians.
Page 218 - ... none of these persons can be brought to trial, without exposing secrets of the last importance to the state, the revealing of which may implicate the safety of the two kingdoms.
Page 357 - PERSECUTION is the Union of Irishmen most exceedingly indebted. The persons and properties of the wretched Catholics of that county were exposed to the merciless attacks of an ORANGE FACTION, which was certainly in many instances uncontrolled by the justices of peace, and claimed to be in all supported by government. When these men found that illegal acts of magistrates were indemnified by occasional statutes, and the courts of justice shut against them by parliamentary barriers, they began to think...
Page 353 - United Irishmen in the end of the year 1791; even then it was clearly perceived that the chief support of the borough interest in Ireland was the weight of English influence; but as yet that obvious remark had not led the minds of the reformers towards a separation from England. Some individuals, perhaps, had convinced themselves that benefit would result to this country from such a measure; but...
Page 355 - English and the borough interest in Ireland even a reform; foreign assistance would, therefore, perhaps become necessary; but foreign assistance could only be hoped for in proportion as the object to which it would be applied was important to the party giving it. A reform in the Irish parliament was no object to the French — a separation of Ireland from England was a mighty one indeed.
Page 357 - Irishmen encreased most astonishingly. The alarm which an Orange lodge excited among the Catholics made them look for refuge by joining together in the United system ; and as their number was always greater than that of bigoted Protestants, our harvest was ten-fold.
Page 337 - The force that will be disposable when the troops from England arrive, cannot fail to dissipate every alarm ; and I consider it peculiarly advantageous that we shall owe our security so entirely to the interposition of Great Britain. I have always been apprehensive of that false confidence which might arise from an impression that security had ¥ been obtained by our own exertions. Nothing would tend so much to make the public mind impracticable with a view to that future settlement, without which...
Page 446 - Latterly the rebellion has degenerated, particularly ill the counties of Wicklow, Wexford, Kildare, Westmeath, and Dublin, into a petty warfare, not less afflicting to the loyal inhabitants, though less formidable to the State. In those counties the number of persons taken in the commission of the most shocking crimes, still acting upon treasonable and systematic principles, has been such as to render it impossible to trust to the usual administration of justice for the punishment of the offenders...
Page 108 - Mr. Wilberforce seemed at first to have formed a very low, and we need not add, a very erroneous opinion ; but when his Lordship's situation became more prominent, and his character better defined, that polished benevolence, that high and calm sense of honour, that consummate address, that inflexible firmness, and that profound and yet unostentatious sagacity, won the respect and confidence of Wilberforce, as they did of reluctant senates at home, and of suspicious cabinets abroad.
Page 223 - I sincerely congratulate you upon your successes at Vinegar Hill. I consider the rebels as now in your power ; and I feel assured that your treatment of them will be such as shall make them sensible of their crimes, as well as of the authority of Government.
