IREL A D. Cork contains Limrick HelU Newry Kilkenny Waterford Cork has 70,490 inhabitants. 9387 houfc3 503 1700 2200 I Vom the above fiatement, with is tolerably cor rf it is apparent that the towns of Ireland are Ui AuT of houfes more than donble what they are fn iand. In point of wealth hovvev'er, Ireland has i i.iV. icncy more than quadruple.

And in point of municipal ccronomy, and domcflic modation, the difproportion in favor of England 3 almolt infinite. I The Ii iih proportion having Dafled the lords, will brought before the commonj on Friday next, and homes ot parliament are expected to be pro ioaed tae 1 uciuay touowing. I 'Tune x8. It is found by a minute inveftigation of one of the ngiifh propofitions, that by a fide wind, the whole cf our trade to the thirteen provinces of North A nicrica, is totally and entirely done away every man in Ireland, whether in or out of trade, fhould, with: the molt fcrupulous attention, fcan thefe prbpofiti ens they will then be found not lefs infidieus than akfolutely ruinous to the growing rninufadtures and ifant profperity of Ireland this fhould not be con lidcred as a party queftion but a queftion involving every thing that can tend to make us for eternity the verieft wretches, or to rank among the nations of the earth as men. Can it be a decree of Heaven that the Irifh, are forbid to live nay lodge like hearts and have none other nourtfhment than potatoes, wa tcr, fait? yet, how many hundred thoufands are; therein Ireland that have none other Tubfiflcncc, and that without even fhoes nay fliirts.

Mtifl we forever thus remain to pamper the luxury of Britain Mr. Pitt and ibme of his friends have attempted to vindicate the 4th rr'ution, by urging, that it re quires no more of than what mull be ever the cafe, when two Ir rpendent nations enter into a league for their co advantage: that there is no more facrifice 6i Lieir refpecYive independence, jn cne inltance, than in the other. But this is a mere plaufible fubtcrfuge. For in fuch compacts, a fti pulation is made for certain fervices in certain emef gencies. But in the cafe before us, Ireland will be bound to adopt whatever laws and regulations of trade and navigation England may pleafe to pafsj i and we may fafely defy the adeptinj political hifto ry, to, produce a fimilar agreement between two in impendent kingdoms.

The cafe is, tliut from the lethargic and infevifible condition, in whicnAve fcerri to have repofed for along time, fome men hare flattered themfelves, 1 that any innovation on our con Ititution mould be tamely fubmitted to. The doctrine of attachment, and the dilbanding of the volunteers were the entering wedge and it was furrnifcj.I that other infringements of our privileges, would readily be admitted after thofe meafures. The hea vy burdens impofed on the prefs, formed another member of this dangerous fyftcm and if any thing could rivet our chains, and flop thej voice of com plaint and alarm, this fevcrc meafure would hafe a'H cAcd it. But there is a love of liberty, an at to their country glowing in the hearts of Irifhmcn, that neither corruption nor opprefiion can txtinguifh. I One would almoft conclude from the meafures pf the picfent adminiltration, that they either conceive' we are not entitled to the fame civil rights and blef iings as the Englifh, or that we have not fenfe to dif ccrn, or fpirit to maintain them.

How elfe can wje: account for the different meafure meted out to us. In England, a reform in parliament is thought to be a jull requilition, and conventions of the people to procure it are deemed ftridlly conftitutional but Ireland, a reform in parliament is fcputed as a dangerous innovation and popular afTcmblies as fail and treafonable. But perhaps the moft ftrikiug intUnce of this double game, is the refolution for a perpetual appropriation of the furplus of the heredt tiry revenue. In England, it is held to be a wife ar.d conftitutional dofhine, that the people have a riht to make annual grants of their own money, as the exigencies of the (tate require, and to or rralc thc furplus, as they diflikc or approve ofj the frrvicc. A perpetual army orj navy is their: rircad and abhorrence, and tliey rightly judge, that tlioy cannot better combat the intluence of the crowrt, anci fee urc the privileges of the commons, and theirj coufiitueiits, than by keeping their purfe firings in! their own hands.

This degraded jiland, on the contrary, is to be bound up to make a facrifice forever of the furplus of the hereditary revenue, to whatever fum it may amount, even in a time of pro' found. peace, while England is labouring as much as pohihle to retrench and unburden heiielt of her im m. nfe debt. This is the very quintllTence of reci rrocitv. I An writer hath juftlv remarked, that the molt fortunate circumilance which could have happened for Ireland is, that lhe is hitherto uninj cuinbered with reftriclions on her foreign trade, uni trtit red by joint flock companies, or cxclufive prj vilres confequcntly, as Ireland either has, or foon v.

ill have, a free navigation from the Cape of Good Ihvv tothc extremitiesof China, there is net a doubt t.e made, but that many, perhaps mofl of thofc merchants and manufacturers, who are the molt zealous againft the Irifh bill, will be among(l t'se forcmoll, to fit out Englifh (hips and cargoes, I to clear and victual from fome of the ports in I hnd, in order to trade under the fanclion of tfea Ir. tug. In fuch a Puliation the face of things will changed. evils will be foreboded to fall on J'oor old Enghnd, even though the Ynerchants of Eo.ulon, Brillol, Liverpool, and Glafgow, and the the manufacturers of Birmingham, and Paifley, ftiould fend their goods to Arabia 'i 1 Perfia, to the Ealt India and China through this new channel nor wilj there be anir lamentation, mouid tne returns De made in tea aa.i chiha ware, in raw filk, cotton wool, camels tair, ivory, drugs, indigo, fahpetre, and various ingles, necefiary for the manufaclures cf both1 adoms. In fact, when thefe goods and raw mai t' Tuli ihall Li once landed Ireland, the necefiary vill foon be felt ii England, fnr tYit 7 r' i.op.diyjng India company will be compelled to "cr their prices on the like articles, or to become tiiikrupr.

Ve mar now clearly perceive the meaning of that extraordinary jealoufy difco3ered fome time ago of g.d'unt volunteers, and the great hurry. fonc a wire in to fubJlitute a militia, under the influ 5r' of adminiflration, in their fteadJ The victim ufually bound and rendered defencelefs before he li laid on the altar. The late numerous and refpect 01 incic uravc aucners ox incur coun 1 1 try's caufe may probably have fialhed conviction Into the minds of the mofl fanguine abettors of the de ftrulive commercial fyflem. There never, indeed, was a meafure that carried lefs plaufible exctife with it, than that of difbanding the volunteers for if their fervices were unneceffary, for what reafon was this impoverifhed ifland to be Vaddled with an additional expence of maintaining a militia. And if any apprehenfion of foreign ordomeftic danger called for a military force, to whom could we better trufl both our external and internal defence, than to thofe patriotic bands of armed citizens, who had fo much interefl in the.

Honored Sir, 11 provofl, vice provofl and profefibrs of the Univerfity of Pennfylvania, beg leave to congratulate you on your fafeanival in your native country, after having accomplifhed the duties tf. your exalted character, with dignity and fucctfs. While we participate, the general happineis of America, to the cltablifhment of which your political abilities and private exertions have fo fingnally contributed. We feci a peculiar pleafure in paying our acknowledgements toithe gentleman, who ririt projected the liberal plan of the inflitution, over which weNhave the honor to prcfide. Not content with enriching the world with the mofl important difcoveries in natural philofophy, your benevolence and liberality of fentiment early engaged you to make provifion for exciting a fpirit of enquiry into the fecret operations of nature for exalting and refining the genius of America, by the propagation of ufeful learning and for qualifying many of her fons, to make that illuflrious figure which has commanded the efleem and admiration of the mofl polifhed nations of Europe.

Among the many benevolent projections which have laid fo ample a foundation for the efleem and gratitude of your native country, permit this femi nary to reckon her firfl eftablifhmcnt, upon the fq lid principles of equal liberty, as one of the mofl conlidcrable and important: and now, when rtflor ed, thro' the intluence of our happy conflitution, to her original broad and catholic bottom when enriched by the protection and generous donations of a publir fpirited and patriotic aflembly and when flourifhing under the countenance of the beft friends of religion, learning and liberty in the ftafe, lhe cannot but promife herfelf the continued patronage of the evening of that life, which Divine 1' vidence hath fo eminently diflinguiihed. May the fame indulgent Providence yet cont. your protracted life, enriched and crowmyJ with bell of bicflings, to nurfe and cherifh this favor, child of your youth, that the future fons of fcience in this weftern world may have additional reafons to remember the name of Franklin, with gratitude and pleafure Signed in the name or the faculty, by JOIIK EWING, Provofl of the Univerfity. To which Addrefs, the Doctor returned the following ANSWER. I AM greatly obliged, gentlemen, by yourJcind congratulations on my J'afe arrival.

It gives me extreme pleafure tovfind that Ifemina riesof learning are encouraged andincreafing in America and particularly, that the univerfity over which you pretide, continues to flourifli. My bell wifhes will always attend it. The inftruction of youth is one of thofe employments which, to tfce public, arc moft ufeful It ought therefor to be efteemed among the mofl honorable.
