      Eustace . 4 to . pp . i > 2 . 2 nd Edit . Mawman . J 813 , Mr . Eustace is a Roman Cath - * olic clergyman , who has presented himself most creditably before the public , in his two volumes of

      Travels in Italy ; He is a scholar , a gentleman and , we scruple not to say , as far as we can judge of his spirit by the pamphlet before us , an exemplary ^ Christian . We wish the Bishop of Lincoln well rid of such ah antagpuist . ,

      Our object , in taking notice of Mr . Eustace ' s Answer , is not to go into the Catholic Question , but merely to prfeS £ wtS the reader with a few passages ftotn the fine pen of this Catholic Writer , as happy signs of the times .

      • Your lordship , hbw ^ Vet * , and every man of observation ia aware , that if an ^ British monarch should ever , hereafter , conceive a secret design of undermining the church , he will find , without applying to his ^ Gatholic subjects , a sufficient number of Protestant counsellors to aid and further his projects . Courts

      have at all times abounded in flatterers ; and be the monarches plans ever so absurd or ever so mischievous , he will ea-t sily discover , if not among his ministers , at least among his friends , some faithful , obsequious , servant , to carry them into execution . "" p . 17 .

      c The two Scotch rebellions were the deeds of a powerful Protestant party , arrayed in support of a royal exile , whom , though a Catholic , they deemed their lawful sovereign . They "were not enlightened patriots , I admit ; but they

      were generous and loyal subjects , who fought and died for a cause which they held sacred ; and I stronglv suspect that most sovereigns , those of tne Brunswick line not excepted , would prefer their blind attachment to our legal allegiance . " pp . 22 , 23 .

      " No animal will bear a yoke that galls j he will kick and toss his head , till he shakes it off , or he will turn against the hand that imposes it . Englishmen and Irishmen form , I presume , no exception to this general rule . p . 26 . 3— " it is very immaterial to the
