However fair the prospects of the United Irishmen in the beginning", it was but a struggle of the Celts to recover the soil and of the priests to recover Catholic supremacy. Horrible things are done when mobs of unprincipled men get power into their hands. But mobs never succeed in doing anything but mischief. What had Grattan done? What had Grattan's constitution done for his coun- try? Ireland, when the American war broke out, lay under a code of laws so unjust as to drive an unhappy people t...o a revolution for a remedy. The restrictions on trade had been taken off, and the restric- tions on the Catholics were fast passing away. Had this been taken care of, all else must have been righted. Grattan was led away with what I call a delirium of nation- ality. He insisted upon national independ- ence, and what was the result ? Did any peasant pav lighter rent to his landlord? 152 Frondes Lectures. Was any tenant saved from eviction? Grattan said, " Make Ireland a nation, and Ireland will redress her own wrongs." She became a nation, and actions which before were scandalous became infamous.
