Where the pure crystal ftream smoothly

glides thro' the vales, And the groves gently murmur with whispering gales;

Where no reptile the traveller's progrefs impedes,

And at eve falling dew drops befpangle the meads.

Where the harvest the husbandman's hopes never fails,

And the cow's teeming udder oerflows the full pales;

Where the luftering creffes oerfpread the moift fprings,

And the cuckoo aloft on the bough fweetly fings;

Where the thru too harmonious opes wide his fhrill throat,

Still we're doomed to behold fome great folks with long puries,

Whofe talents are cath, and whofe logic is curfes,

Who like a great Nob, of the Prelitic throng,

Think the people's hearts right tho' their Heads are quite wrong;

That the Bishops and Priests may at once be in clover.

They intend as our Head, faith the House of H- -r;

Apd the object on whom they have now chanced to chop,

Not unlike the Popes head in the Brushmaker's hop,

Is to dull that full many a fubject come plains,

FASHIONS FOR OCTOBER.

PORTUGAL.

The Autumnal Equinox has produced an unusual fall of rain, fucceeded by gloomy and chilly weather. This transition from warmth, has made it neceffary for our females to make some confiderable alteration in their apparel. An addition in the length of the petticoat is generally adopted; the chearful fummer which admitted them to use the lightest covering made it unneceffary to be very exact in the length or regularity of the lower parts of dress, fo that they appeared befides being barefoot, to have the tattered garments not to need the affiftance of the needle, either to exclude the genial air by well placed patches, or inconvenient additional appendages, that might embarafs them in the useful employments of digging and planting the only food that the wildom of the laws, or the humanity of our landlords, has left for the amufement and nutriment of the Irish air.

The children who were permitted in the fine weather to fcamper oaked on the roads and the ditches, have been called in to take fuch protection against the elemente, and their Lords coaches, as wicker doors, and half graves can give; their little perfons are imperfectly covered by fhreds of carpets, hay girdles, and old hats; with this elegant Union covering, they appear healthful and gay, we!! made and paffionately fond of learning, many of them better informed, than many gentlemen in England. One inconvenience attends this wretchedner's and information, that riper years render them impatient under their comparative ftate, with that of the infulting splendour that furround them, and partial infurrection, and fubfequent punishment, record the inequality of the laws, and the unimproved condition of the poor, fo heed lessly passed over, by an unfeeling and impolitic herd of middle men, fox hunters, and law makers, whom conquest and confifcations, have railed from an English mob, to transfuri inte -an Irish Anglo gentry.

Sir Arthur Wellesley and the Irish and English troops are faid to have performed the moft glorious deeds of military kill and manly firmnefs, in Portugal. The English prints are as ufual, lavish of their praife of the heroes who have rescued the Catholic Altars from French profanation. This leading object of the British Commanders and Ambaffadors in Spain and Portugal, deferves the moft lively approbation of every good man. We could with the honour and fanctity of the Catholic Altars in Ireland, were as anxiously protected at home, and that a few of our gallant countrymen, were authorised to lend their aid to the defence of our thatched Chapels, and poor Priesthood from the facrilegious Orangemen in the North of Ireland, and the neighbouring Counties. It is not three months fioce the Rev. Mr. Duane, was hunted from his lodgings by a party of this banditti, and to fave his lite was obliged to fwim a river near the town of Mountrath, and to hide himself in the trenches of a potatoe field, in his wet clothes, by which he caught a cold that killed him. The favages etraged at being deprived of their game, veated their fury on the Chapel of the town, and the terrifiad unarmed Catholics, beheld in filent anguish, their place of worthip treated with the moft facriligeous indecency ! ! !

The Magiftrates ftood filent, and continue fo; no meetings took place to confider of the expediency of declaring the County in danger, or likely to become so, not a folitary Proclamation, was ever fufpended, to arreft or even difcourage the Organifed murderers. Had a Minif ters dog been hunted from his kennel, and obliged to swim for his life, all the forms of terror and alarm for a Church in danger, would have been performed.

Charity fhould begin at home, and we truft when the hero of India and Portugal, returns with his well earned laurels, he will spare a day or two in the fervice of his perfecuted countrymen.

The capture, or furrender of Junot,

and the terms he dictated to his conquerors, are as varioufly told, and as warmly difputed in the public prints, as the feelings and views of the parties engaged impel them, each fide have their arguments and abuse so plausibly atranged, that a very numerous class of the British readers are prepared to wreck the most condign punishment on the General who figned the ignominious treaty, without trial or hearing the illuftrious culprits, who for fome very efficient reafons are as filent on the reafons that made them yield to the demands of Junot, as the others are noify and impatient.
