Irish Catholic Petition
One of the most interesting dis
cussions of a parliamentary kind
vhich has Been lately reported in
England, is that upon the Irish
Catholic Petition It received all
the defence and support which the
"friends of civil and religious liberty
cou!d give lit, hut in vain the
church was against it; and ludicri
ous to say, the Protestant church
government tn 1 05 refuse the liber
ty which ifcey themselves claimed
. an the lCtrt century. The majority
in the House of .Lords against the
measure whiek Lord Grenviile had
the honour to propose was 129 -of
178 who voted, 40 only espousing
jhe cause off human nature, and
striving to return to their ieilow
jnen the rigjvts cf which they have
been dispossessed.
In the House of Commons the
debate continued two days. Pot

From the san'tC
The imaginary importance of
the government of England, draw?
to a close. In the two la3t wars,
that with America, tmd the other
with France, she was defeated and
disgraced in all her projects ; and
the present war, as far as it ha
gone, gives symptoms ofasimil.tr
face. There is evidently a mad
ness in her councils (besides the
royal madness) that has no fore
sight, and cannot calculate events.
One would suppose, that when j
a government goes to war or its
own choice, and is the first to de
clare it, (which was the case with
the English government in the
present war with France,) that it
had arranged all its plans, and had
every thing in readiness to put
these plans into operation the in
stant it declared war. But this
was not the case with the Brush
government ; for a it has put no
plan in execution, the -inference is,
that either it had none, or those it
had were too imperfectly formed
to he executed. Take which of
the inference you -will, aud it
shews the incompetent y of vi
English government to the condi
tion into which it ha plunged
itself.
It was laughaWe enough to see
how the British parliament passed
away its time in debating -whether
there was cause for war or not
when they declared it. A minis
terial victory in parliament does
not decide a battle m the held.
Philosophers and naturalists have
to do with cauies, and poiitk ia -.s
with consequences. For eampl
it would have been madness in A
merica to have declared indepen
dence, if &he had not pus-vsjwd
the means of obtaining it, nd th

14 Decline and full of the L iglisk

great a run upon the Bunk oi Eng
land, that the Bank could not stand
it. The directors of the Buk
made.their condition known to Mr.

only for a few 'months, but it was

was made a pretence for again shut

never open for payment. Its ruin
is as fixed as fi.te.

Extract from a Sermon,
Delivered at Wallingford, Couiittcticut,
March 11th, 18J1, by Stanley G n-ivd.i',
A. M, :
44 Ifwerecurto o'ru' forefathers' we
shall find them Republicans, from
the beginning. The spirit of free
dom drove them from their native
land, and brought them to this, then
howling wilderness. Genuine
principles of liberty were conspicu
ous in all the,ir proceedings.
These principles they carefully
handed clown to their sons, and in
every period of the country's pro
gress they have been conspicuous,
i hey bj-oke out in full splendor in
1775 and 76, of which the declara
tion of Independence, is an illus
trious proof. Again they shone
forth with effulgent lustre in 178?
alid S3, and the unparalklcd 'consti
tution of the United States was their
fruit These smckht dee p-rooteti,
reptibucan principles of the country
must be most sacredly- regarded ;
for, be assured etfery - variation
from them will be resisted and
bring on convulsions. Give me
leave to say further, you will nt
mistake the vill and pleasure of
the country, if you give all your
friendship, ally cur best wishes, and
all the support in, power to the in
comparable constitution of the Uni
ted States. This constitutioa was
adopted by a fair xpression of the
public will. It is the government
of the country and the ordnance of
. . j
uod. , When we examine its mer-
s, we find it but another edition
of the genuine principles of Re
publicanism, equal rights its foun
dation, and the welfare of the peo
ple its object. The precious max
ims of the dtclaration qj' hidejien
dcilce are transplanted into the con
stitution. . And as under the for
mer, the country' marched to vic
tory, 3o under the latter she may
advance to prosperity. Let the
constitution then be esteeme-d the
Palladium of all that we hold dear.
Let it be venerated as the sanctua
ry of cur liberties and all our best
interests. Let it be kept a the ark
ttl God. Obey the laws of Go
vemmeDt ; be genuine friends of
order. By thus devoting your
selves to the principles of our ex
cellent constitution and the existing
laws of government, you will be
sure to do the pleasure of the coun
try. 44 Let this character 6e invaria
bly maintained. On no occasion
and on no account let it sink into
the low regions of party. Stoop
not to the extreme littleness, far
from such despicable things be
our conduct. Let the American
character be borne aloft. Let it
soar like the eagle of heaven, its
emblem, bearing the scroll of our -
I liberties thtoueh helds of azure
light, unclouded by the low-bred
vapours olfaction. Let the spirit
of cur hiihci s comei upon us. Be
men: rise: let -another race of
patriots appear. Lt America
once more be the admiration oi
the woiid."
New Plan.
, Another n.-w lanet has been
discovered by M. Harding, of Li
lienihal, near Bremen, to which
he has given the name of Juno. It
is of the eighth magnitude, and at
tracted his attention while compa
ring with the Heavens the 50,000
Stars observed by Me3srs.Llande.
It appears to have a peculiar mo
tion, and after observing it for ma
ny days, he clearly ascertained it
was a planet. Its right a.-cension
on the 5th of -September was 1 mi
nute, 52 seconds, its north decli
nation 0 deg. 1 1 min, The same
planet was observed by M. Burck
hardt, on the 22d of September, at
359 deg. 7 mm. and 40 deg. 6 min.
from which he inferred that, the
duration cf its revolution is five
years and a half. The ioUowing
particulars hsve also been ascer
tained ; its declination is 21 deg.
Its eccentricity is a quarter of it's
radius. Its mean distance from
the sun is diree times that cf the
earth, or about an hundred mil
lions of leagues ; it is consequent! v
further than Ceres pr Pallas, whose
distance is 95,000,003- Its dia
meter has not yet been ascertained ;
but its size appears nearly the same
as that of Ceres, or the planet dis
covered by P;a?.zi. This is the
twelfth planet discovered within "a
few years, Heischrll having disco
vered Uranus and its six-satellites,
and two new satellites to Saturn:
Phizzi discovered Ceres and Ol
bers discovered Pallas Lan. Pa

An Irish Gentleman lately at an
English Inn, on receiving his bill
from the waiter, was somewhat
surprised at perceiving that a
charge for whiskey, sixteen shil
lings, made p'arts of its contents....

by paying for an srticle which
