Excerpt from The Letters of Hibern-Anglus: Containing Strictures on the Conduct of the Present Administration in Ireland, and a Vindication of the Proceedings Adopted Since the Regency of the Irish Catholics, With Other Papers
This Publication consists of a Letter to a Noble Lord upon the general state of Ireland during the last year - of the Letters of Hibern-Anglus, many of which have not hitherto appeared - and of an Appendix containing the Letter of an Englishman on the effect likely to be produced by the conduct of the Irish Government in our continental operations - and also three Letters by a Scotsman, upon the connection of the Catholic Question with the claims of Scotland, to be relieved from the English Test Act. The three last have been published with the permission of the Gentleman by whom they were written.
There are contained also copies of the Convention Act and of the Proclamation, as well as an Index of the Letters, by which the reader will be able to turn to any of the points discussed, which he may be disposed to think most to deserve his consideration. The Letters have been printed with the dates of the days on which they were composed, and they have been published principally for the perusal of Members in both Houses of Parliament, inclined to devote their attention to the affairs of Ireland, at this critical conjuncture. From the rapidity with which they were originally written, and on the present occasion have passed through the press, there may possibly exist various inaccuracies, which have escaped the Author's observation, and which he trusts the reader will excuse.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of letters written by the author in response to the Irish government's suppression of Catholic political activity in 1811. The letters defend the Catholics' right to petition Parliament for the repeal of the Penal Laws and argue that the government's actions are unconstitutional and counterproductive. The author also discusses the broader historical and political context of the Catholic question, including the role of the Catholic Church in Irish society and the relationship between Ireland and Great Britain. The book is a valuable resource for understanding the history of Catholic emancipation in Ireland and the complex religious and political issues that shaped Irish history in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
