III Experience
II. Ireland
(2) 2 §. The case stated
5
5. So far as the two interests
concurred artistocratic
adhered to democratic
association, and both
obtained their good object.
6
6. So far as Monarchists
interests concurred with
the two others, viz.
security against the
enemy, Monarchists
so far satisfied; though
on other accounts
jealous
6. For a certain length the interests of the Monarch
and that of his dependants and other adherents in both
kingdoms were narrower, and were soon to be the same
with the two abovementioned interests: and thus far to the
Ministers and Parliaments of both countries favoured
the association the association was on some accounts one account
an object of satisfaction; though probably even from the naturally are namely that of the security that
obtained for all three parties against the common enemy: though
very first and with jealousy
naturally from the very first this satisfaction could not, in
the nature of things have been altogether unmixt with jealousy.
7
7. At length, Monarchists
endeavoured
to set up a counter-force
under Government command:
but ineffectually
7. In part Sooner or later In process of time the alarm of Government in
both countries rose to such a height, that endeavours
were used to weaken their the force of the free Association
by another qualities a concurrent and rival form
which should be at the disposal of government, but the
endeavour proved ineffectual.
8
8. First effect of Volunteers
influence, sacrifice
of Irish to English
communal interest
removed: democrats
and aristocrats thus
far satisfied.
8. While the association was in force, and by means of its
influence, laws were passed enacted by which that part of the system
of oppression by which the communal interests of Ireland had
been sacrificed to the communal interests real or supposed of
England, was in a great degree such sort manner and degree removed as to affairs to the satisfaction on that hand
the people of Ireland in general.
9
9. At length Volunteer
bodies sent delegates
to a convention which
sat close to Parliament
Members of the bodies
and of Convention
Members of both
Houses
9. In passage of time, At length the associated bodies in various
parts of Ireland chose delegates who met in no central
Assembly styled a Convention, what ultimately had its
suit in the Metropolis is in the same City (the Metropolis) and at the
same time with the Parliament: and Members of both
Houses being m Members some of it either of the delegating
bodies or of the Convention, or of both.
