Radicalism not dangerous
III Experience
II Ireland
(3) Sheffield against Reform
This system of universal mutual destruction of which he was so
sure, by which hands was it to be established? Catholics
who had part taken in the voluntary system
had taken a part, and those who had taken none. When
These being taken into account not many surely would
be left to add to it.
Of those who had taken no such part he proceeds with
his usual accustomed candour to give this testimony. "The conduct p.364
"of the Roman Catholics for a length of time, except those
"who concerned in this business, had been so respectable that
"it seemed harsh to mention any thing adverse to them:
"but the objection is to their numbers." Thus far his Lordship
"Except those concerned in this business" — well and ho
what had their conduct been? Answer according to his Lordship
on account of the matter still more respectable:
still more admirable; in a still greater degree entitling
them to confidence. With the exception of such of them as
had were been received into the number of the associated
and armed volunteers, they had been unarmed, unassociated,
powerless defenceless helpless If in this situation their peaceableness
gave them a title claim to confidence, how much stronger a title
had they acquired when after their having the whole country
at their command they had still remained submissive?
