III Experience

Corruption general
Hardy p 280 281
Hardy p.280. Ao 1783 "When Lord Northington" (Lord Lieutenant)
opened the Session of 1783 . . . (p.281) . . . the persons, most the most Copy in p.281 to "interests of Ireland"
hostile to Lord Northington's Administration, were some Gentlemen,
who openly professed themselves attached to Mr
Pitt, the Grenvilles, and, in short, the English opposition.
In this there was nothing disrespectable or improper.
Some few sessions however, afterwards, when
those same persons supported the Court system, as
if not only they but their auditors had been in the
habit of drinking the waters of Lethe, and forgotten
all that was said or done, the constant theme of
their lamentable declamation was, that all English
parliamentary connections, or acting with
any view to English opposition (now matter how
congenial the principles of two parties at this,
and the other side of the water, might be,) were in
the highest degree reprehensible, and injurious
to the interests of Ireland.
