Abomination .
The French Republic has
been guilty of many “ foul abo-'

the libeity of laughing at the
ancient vites and ceremonies of
the mofl abfurd fuperflitions ;
has overturned the throne, and
broken the fereptre of facred
majefly, and laid impious hands
on the “ Lord's anointed/' Nor
is this all. The pure and unde
filed ariflocracies of the little
nations around, and rhe heredi
tary viitues of nobility have
fallen before her arm ; and die
abominable doftrines of demo
cracy have been feduloufly im

The following is an extract of a
letter, f rom a phyfician in Bris
tol, to his friend in London.
“ Dear Sir,
€t ABOU f a week ago I was
called to attend about feventy
hek recruits, juft brought from
Ireland, and for whom a humane
gentleman had fitted up a tem
porary holpital. From thefe
men I received the following
account:
“ 1 he colonel of this regiment
who, with his family, poffefles
great part of the county of Mayo,
perhaps thinking to recommend
j tiimfelf to the notice of govern
ment for his loyalty, &c. &c, in
'quickly raifing a regimen:, by
j deceit obtained his comm (lion
} He had recourfe to the moll vile
i and wicked means of trapanning,
kidnapping, and even canying
men away out of their in
the dead of the night, to the
honor and diftrefs of their fami
lies ; others were feized in the
flreet, draggeddown into cellars,
.and there kept till a fuflicient
i number werecolle&ed to match
I off to tiie barracks, which 1 un
|derftand one of the colonel's
I old houfes ferved for; where
I the men were confined,
j that they had not liberty to go
lout, even when neceflaiy; the
confcquence was, their own fifth
polluted their health, and pro-
I duccd a fever, as contagious al
moft as the plague, though not
fo fatal.
" 1 enquired of them if there
was not a juftice of the peace in
the neighbourhood, to whom
they might have made complaint
'of their treatment ; or why they
;did not complain to the juftice
who attefted them. They laid
they were not attefted till they
I were brought before the colonel's
father, who was a juftice, and
who, when they allied for the
bounty, feeing it was impoffible
j for them to do otherwife than be
(oldiers, would lay a purfe of
guineas on the table, faying 1
“ there my lads , there s money
enough, fign this ; make your attej ■ |
iation , and then you [hall have it.” .
j Wh:ch, when they had done,
J the purfe, with its contents, was
put up again, and they were told
they fhould be paid alion joining I
the regiment : but they were
defrauded in that too; for inftead
of money, the receipt they had
figned at the time of aitefting,
with a bill for clothes and necel
laries, w T ere produced, and they
were told, there was nothing
coming to them but a few days
pay.

they to make them fight tor the
