Lord Kingpresented a petition, against Tithes from the parish of Ballymore in Westmeath, and the parish of Myross, in the county of Cork. These petitions came from a land of contrarieties, for no sooner was it solemnly affirmed here that tithes existed de jure, than they declared there they should not exist de facto. No sooner did we resolve here that tithes should be paid, than it was determined there that they should not be paid; and although they had now no battles of Skibbereen, they had the exhibition of artillery and infantry escorting a cow to auction, and fairly to sell her. This afforded another proof of what had been proved over and over again, that neither tithes nor taxes could be levied by an army, and that they could never expect to have peace in Ireland till proper provision was made for the Catholic clergy—Petition laid upon the Table.
