(g) Hardy 238 Ao 1782 Towards End of the summer. Failure of a silence
for superseding the Volunteers by means of Forcibles under the
command of Government "Towards the end of this year a most
"singular silence took place in Ireland . . . .p.239 "It was
"proposed to raise four provincial regiments, of an each
"for three years, or for the war; to be officered by Irish Gentlemen"
"who were to receive rank according to the number
"of men that they raised, and not to be sent out of Ireland."
"Page 240. "[+]This took place in the summer of 1782, as I [+] It had been carried
into execution, and all
the officers taken from the
Volunteers. That body became
outrageous and
the people sympathizing
with them, the general
indignation overflowed
all bounds

"have stated, but so fixed was the popular abhorrence of the
" Fcible scheme, that on the dissolution of Parliament, in
"the year, some members lost their seats, in causes
"of accepting faible commissions." - "The united
"efforts of volunteers and the people, with a clearer prospect
"Hardy perhaps of returning peace, utterly demolished it. At all
"waste nothing could have reconciled the country to is adoption."

Hardy 241 Ao 1782 Cordiality of the Volunteers towards the
Regulars when relieved from the apprehension of being overmatched
by troops under the command of Government. When
the Volunteers were reviewed by Lord Charlemont in the Phoenix
Park the Duke" (off Portland Lord Lieutenant)" was present;
and on being thanked by the noble general at the ,
for the honour his grace had done them,"surely, my Lord,"
he replied,"a lady of men formed on such principles, could not
"be so near me, without a desire on my part to see their exertions.
"This was spoken so audibly, the number heard it
and were captivated. The same attention prevailed every
where. The late amiable and much lamented Burgoyne
had, at that time, the command of the forces in Ireland.
Whenever the King's Troops, and the volunteer corps met,
a mutual exchange of the usual military courtesies constantly
took place between them. Lord Charlemont suggested,
that both should be drawn out together, and pay
the accustomed honors to the King's birthday, in conjunction.
The suggestion was laudably and generously complied with: and whoever
remembers it must
acknowledge that it
appeared to be a day
of the most unaffected,
real gladness, that perhaps
ever shone forth
in Dublin."
