BY M. CAREY, AUTHOR OF ESSAYS ON BASKING, POLITICAL OLIVE BRANCH, &C. The history of Ireland's unhappy connexion with England, exhibits, from first to last, a detail of the most persevering, galling, grinding, insulting, and systematic oppression, to be found any where, except among the Helote of Sparta. There is not q national fccling that has not been insulted and trodden under foot; a national right that has not been withheld, until fear forced it from the grasp of England ; or a dear or ancient prejudice that has not been violated, in ihat abused country. As Christians, the people of Ireland have been denied, under penalties and disqual ificat ions, the exercise of the rites of the Catholic religion, Yenerable for its antiquity; admirable for its unsty; and consecrated by the belief of some of the best men that ever breathed. As men, they have been deprived of the common rights of British subjects, under the pretext that they were incapable of enjoying them: which pretext had no other tundation than their resistanc( of oppression, only the more severe by being sanctioned by the laws. England first denied them the means of improvement; and then insulted them with the imputation of barbarism. PAULMDNO. There is but little respite from exasperating oppression and unmerited cruelty. The eye wanders over a dreary scene of desolation, without a singl; point on which it can rest The heart of the Philanthropist sinks under a hopeless despondency . and passively yields to the unchristian and impious reflection, that the poor people of Ireland are a devoted race, whom Provi- dence has abandoned to the malignant ingenuity of an insatiable enemy. LAWLESS. There is no instance, even in the ten persecutions, of such severity as that wohich has been exercised over the Catholics of lreland. S. JosIsoN. PHILADELPHIA: PUBIS;HED BY M. CAREY AND SON. 1819. Reproduction by Permmission of the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library Buffalo, NY
