DUBLIN, April u.
CATHOLIC MEETING.
Yellerday a moil numerous and re
fpe&ablc meeting of the Roman Catho
li#s of this city, wns held in Francis
street chapel, for the ptirpofe of recti*-
lngtlrc report of the delegates appointed
at a meeting on the 27th of February
lufl:, to prefeut an address to his majesty,
in refpetfc to the event of their million
on that ocenfron.
Oil the motion of Richard M'-
Corrr.ii.k, John Sweetman, Lfq. was
called to the chair.
Mr. Edward Byrne, one of the dele
gates, in a co.icile fpeec'i, inYormed the
meeting, that, "pmfuaut to the inAruc
tions which he and the gentlemen who
were aflociated with him in the delega
tion liad received, they had presented
their address to Ins mrtjetty ; but he
fr.ould refer them for a more particular
Account of the proceedings on that bu
siness, to a gentleman who was alfoci
aled with him on that Removable and
important trull, who was then present.
Mr. Keogh went at great length in
to a detail of what passed between ihe
Duke of Portland and the Delegates
on the fubjeft of their miffioi: ; and da
ted, that after presenting their address
to his majeftv, they applied to his grace
to know tl his majelly had communicat
ed to l.im any antwer tp their address ?
To this his grace declined giving any
a ifwer; but he told them that his ma
jedy's intentions should be imparted
thr ugh the medium of the Lord Lieu
tenant. After dating what had pafled
between the Delegates and the Seereta
iy of State, in a very minute manner,
Mr. Keogh took compiehenlivc
view of the relative fituMj'on of this
Country, with tefpeft to Great-Britain ;
of the infultswe have received from her,
and the benefits we render to her. He
then adverted to the circumllances at
tending the American war, when A
mcrica, before (he resorted to arms, com
plained of her privileges being abridged,
of having feat deputies with addresses
to Great Britain, dating their grievanc
es ; of their addrefies being reje&ed—
their deputies b ing unfuccefsful, and
the venerable Franklin being tieated
with insult. The confequeuce was, that
America was fevcted fiom Great-Bri
t 'in. He then adverted to Brabant and
Holland, and, after reprobating the
condu£l of the Britilh cabinet towards
this country, concluded a speech re
plete with great energy ar.d ltrength of
y.rgument, with expressing a v;i(h, that
no further quellion on the fubjeft of
Catholic emancipation (hould be brought
forward ; that wi» ftiould cor.lider our
felvcs as united with Irishmen of every
defer!ptioß. He bellowed the highelt
Cilogium on his Piotellant fcllow-fub
jetta, p rticularly the inhabitants • of
Belfall, who dood foreniod i'l the cause
of the emancipation of the Catholics.
[In the course of Mr. Keogh's
speech, the gen'lemen of the College,
who had been to present an address
from their body to Mr. Grattan, en
tered the Chapel ; they were received
with the loudell burds of applause, and
were immediately accommodated with
feats J
Dr. N T evin, after a speech of some
length, moved, that the thanks of the
meeting be, and are hereby given, to
Ed\vard Borne, Esq. Jnhn Keogh, Esq.
and Baion HufTey of Galtrim, for their
alacrity in undertaking, and fidelity in
executing the trust reposed in them,
which was unanimously agreed to ; as
was also the thanks to Theobald Wolfe
Tone, Esq. their agent, for his cheer
ful compliance in accompanying our
delegates to London $ and for the many
and important services he has rendered
to the Catholic bodr.
A resolution was also agreed to, that
the Right Horn Henry Grattan be re
quested to present the petition of the
tatholics immediately on the meeting of
Parliament.
The thanks of the meeting were also
voted to the Gentlemen of the Univer
sity, who had honored the meeting this
day with their presence.
After which the meeting adjourned,
fine die.

Introductory Address.
Too long have vile abuse and |. v :y rege,
Employ'd the press and foil'd the week
ly pa^e —
While Truth herfelf, by partial hands
pour* ray'd,
Half met the lhrht and half was funk in
(hade.
And was the Press, fair Freedom's gift,
j defign'd,
To ft;l've each bafcr purpose of rffa'n
kind ?
To flatter pride, to point ths darts of
f;>it«,
Tj blalt the good and fcrcen the bad
j from light ?
j Foibid it licavfu !—A nobler aim be
ours,
jTo mehil the, heart, to aid the menta'
power*.;
iVfhew the world," on one exterilive
plan,
All that is good and great and dear to
man:
The llatefman's plans artd counfeli to
difp'ay—
To point where glory (hapesthe hero's
way :
And while new wonders buril from eve
ry clime.
To mark the unfolding* of eventful
time :
Thus while our youth, with sparkling
eyes (hall read,
How patriots conquer, or more nebly
bleed,
Their geneious fouls may catch the sa
cred flame,
And join their country's love to that
of fame.
Copatriots dear! of every sex and
a R c >
Whom chance may lead to view this
humble page;
Protett our pre is—efpoufc a flranger's
part,
And deign to fofter learning's favourite
art :
With candour read, nor too fevercly
blame,
'Tis all we aflc who dare not hope for
fame.
SCENIC EFFECT.
We take the liberty to observe, that
in this paper, previous to the re-build
ing of Drury lane theatre, we recom
mended with all the strength of argu
ment of which we were poffefTed, that
theftage (hould receive, conformable to
natural phoenomena, its principal light
from the deling and not the Jloor —It
seems in England this improvement was
not deemed pra&icabje, yet so it is, it
it has been adopted within these lad
few months in France with complete
success—as usual perhaps it will be taken
up on this fide of the water at second
hand, so soon as it (hall be found necef
fai yto make further theatrical alterations.
There are now about seventy theatres
open in Paris. The convention are de
termined that the people (hall turn their
minds to politics as little as poflible.
BALTIMORE, June 7.
By the Brig Mentor, Capt. Mitchell,
which arrived on Wcdnefday, we have
received Antigua, and Barbadoes pa
pers to the 13th May, from which
the following is extracted.
BRIDGE-TOWN, May 9.
By the arrival of the mail boat yes
terday, is confirmed the melancholy ac
count of the death of the governor, Mr.
Campbell, and 38 other Gentlemen who
were ignonimoufly executed by the ene
my at Grenada, almost the wholeef
which is said to be in their polTeffion.
She also confirms the reccnt defeat of
the Chat aibs at St. Vincents ; ard adds,
that they turned against the French, whose
heads they daily bring in, and whom they
now accuse, as being the instigators and
abettors of the depredations and cruelties
which they have hitherto committed.
May 13.
On Monday arrived the Sloop Betsey,
Capt. Barnes, by which we learn that a
number of difaffedled persons had been
taken up at Martinique, among others a
Frenchman, together with a Mullatta wo
man, who had secreted him in a Chest, in
which w39alfo found several hundred na
tional focV.adcs and proclamations, in
tended to be difpers'd about the ifland> it
Was supposed this man was one of those
who had escaped froti the schooner that
wis taken by the Thorn flocp of war,
when the attempt was made to land the
troops and commiflioners there ; —both
him and the woman were to be publicly
executed.

information had been received at Mar

Says a Correspondent.
The Elettion of Mr. Jay as Gover
nor of so refpe&able and important
a portion of the Union, as New-York
by foLARCE a majority, (larger I be
lieve than any Candidate ever had be
fore when there has been any appear
ance of a contest) gives pleasure to every
federal Patriot—no recent event appears
to have excited such great and general
fatisfadtion. Mr. Jay's majority is not
so great as was expedted bv the friends
of the Uti'.on in New-York, and else
where ; but several reasons might be as
signed ; had he arrived beforethe eledtion
began, or had there been a moral cer
tainty that he would, the bed informed
persons in New-York are firmly perfuad
td that more than three fourths of the
whole number of eledtors would have
voted for him. Mr. Jay having Thirteen
thousand four hundred and /evenly fix
Votes out of 25,368 Freeholders to the a
mount of £. 100 each, is one of the dron
ged criterion! of the Sentiments of the
People of New-York that could be ex
hibited.
The late tranfadHons in France have
served very fully to display the real cha
racter of the mock Patriots ofthis Coun
try^
They harrat length thrown of all
disguise, and limp along in open day
with their cloven feet.
Wlien Robespierre and Co. were fil
ling France w'th crimes and horrors,
not a whifpcr f>£ difapprohation, all was
neceflary revolutionary energy. Ven
geance having cleared the State of one
set, another take* the lead, but the Peo
ple have, it fecms nothing to "do with
the new order of things—Measures of
moderation Mercy aiid J ullicc are the
works of aparly—fee the paragraphs
in the Aurora.
The bloody proceedings of Carrier,
Collot &c. &c. were never (ligmatized
by our anarehilts with the word party —
no, the people, the peqple did all, was
the burthen of the Song with our fallen
Jacobins ; but now, that mercy, compa
ratively speaking is the-Order of the
Day, the people are entirely loft in the.
bufmefj—What advocates for the So
vereign People, are the mock patriots
of the United States.

NEW T0 R K, June g.
If it be true, as the newspapers have
. announced, and there is but little doubt
, of it, that the honorable Richard Ryder
, son of Lord Harrowby is appointed to
be miniller plenipotentiary to our Uni
ted States, much fatisfaction is to be
hoped snd expedted from the appoint
mcnt—His father Lord Harrowby, is
1 the ouly fun of the late Sir Dudley Ry
-1 der, knight, who, was bred to the law",
and by his afliduity and attention, laid
the foundation for his future elevation,
. He was appointed Solicitor General in
1 733» attorney General in 1736, and
chief judice of the King's bench, in
'754* 'ate majefly, George the
2d, in reward of long and faithful ser
vices, determined to raise him to th e.
dignity of Peerage, a „d a warrant was
signed by the king for that purpose on
1 the 24th of May 1756, but Sir Dudley
died on the following day, before the
' patent was compleated. His son, the
present Lord Harrowby, so called after
the fathers death, married Elizabeth
daughter and co-hei.efs of Dr. Richard
Terricl,]&tc Bidiop of London, whose
great and amiable iharader need not
here be mentioned.
«On Monday last arrived at Newport
the Frigate La Medufe, of 44 guns Ci
tizen Simeon, commander, in 45 days
from Rochfort— which vtffel brought
out Citizen Adet, appointed to succeed
Citizen Fauchet, as Minister Plenipo
tentiary to the United States ; Citizen
. La Tombe, as Consul General, and fotiv
other gentlemen ( whole names we have
not been able to obtain) as Coniulg for
Eofton, New-York, Philadelphia, ai d
Ealtimote.
This morning Citizen Adet and fa
mily arrived in this city, in one of the
Packets from Rhode lfland. From a
gentleman who belongs to it we have
obtained the following information—.
That they left Rochfort the 17th A
: pril, at which time Barrere, Collot A*
Herbois, & liillaucJ Varennes, had kewf
transported to Cam, for life pt;HtifiMt
ti> a decree of the Convention and that
Vadier had made his cleajrc to Switzer
land : That fifteen ether l epitleu;a
tites who had been favorable 10 H>r
cause of barrete, were imprifi.nrd in the
Chateau de H. m (in Pictl**!y.) That
tumults had been excited in Paris, a
gainst the Coimntion, but were fupprcf
fed by the exertions of the Convention,
which were seconded by Get:. Piche
gru, who was then in Paris to confuk
with the Committee of Public Safety,
on the plans of the ensuing campaign.
Prom the fame gentleman we have the
pofiuve afiurance that a TREATY OF
PEACE had been concluded between
France and Prufiia, and had biefl pub
liflied previous to liis leaving Parts. .
We learn that Paiis papers as late as
the 13th Aptil are in town': we have
had the promise of foine of the lateit,
and hope to h y before our readeu, in
our Diary of to-morrow, intelligence
that will interefl them.
La Medufe took otr her passage, two
Spanish, and one PorUtgucfe vtliefy
which they burnt.
By capt. Paine, of (lie ihrp Diana,
arrived yeilerdav in 13 days from the
Havannah, we learn that provisions
were very plenty there, flour 1 z and 13
dollars per bane!—a fleet of 40 fail of
