An Impartial RELATION OF THE Surrender and Delivery OF THE Famous City of Dublin. To the French, BY THE Late King James. WITH Some Great and Remarkable Passages, Which happened betwixt Teague O Regan, and the English General, at the Surrender, etc. Licenced, May 22d. 1690. J. Fraiser. And Entered according to Order. SIR, THE Vessels that arrive here daily, furnish us with good News, from all parts of Ireland; and whatever is confirmed by credible Persons, assure yourself, I shall communicate to you the next Posts. From Dublin we are informed, that the Late King James, has delivered that City over to the French King, by giving the Keys of the Castle of Dublin, and the Gity Gates, to French Commanders in chief; and by mounting and dismounting the Guards, with the French Soldiers; the Irish being rejected, or eased of that trouble; so that the Case of the whole Inhabitants of that City is to be lamented; the English and Protestants being compelled to give Free Quarters to the French; and the Papish Inhabitants, to those of the Irish Soldiers, that are yet remaining there. King James has also seized on all the Brewer's Malt; and in every Brewhouse has placed Officers of the Army; and strictly ordered, that none of the Liquor shall be sold, but all brewed for the use of the Army; and has laid his Commands on them, to sell him their Beer Five Shillings in the Barrel cheaper, than formerly they did; (notwithstanding his Copper Payments:) The French are highly dissatisfied with the Irish in Dublin, vilifying, and calling them a Thousand Cowardly Rogues; urging, That they could not keep their own Country, but that They (meaning the French) must be sent for, and exposed to all hardships, through their Cowardice. From Newry, in the North of Ireland, we are informed as followeth, That Colonel Stewart went lately to the Walls of Dundalk, and seeing no probability of Opposition, he went farther, and seized on One Thousand Head of Black Cattle; and caused them to be driven by Dundalk: And that the Irish might not think he came purely for the Prey, the worthy Colonel sends them a Trumpeter, to tell rhem, That he came not to steal their Cattle, but took them fairly; and if they were so disposed, they might come and Rescue them, or receive Payment for them. But so great was the damp on their Spirits, that though there were Three Regiments in the Town, not one of them came out, nor so much as made one Shot from the Walls, but suffered the Colonel to carry off his Prey, without the least Interruption; and since that, the Irish, as we are credibly imformed, have deserted Dundalk, Atherdee, and Carlingford. We have likewise a Confirmation of the actual Surrender of Charlement. And that the Governor, Teige O Regan, when he took his leave (with the Commander in Chief of the English Forces there) desired, that one thing might be granted him; which was, That he might carry King James one of the Brass Guns, which they left in the Castle; which the General much wondered at, after the Articles and Surrender had passed, saying, I know no use you can make of it, unless it be to Coin Brass Money. To which Mr. Governor Teige Answered, Be me Shoul joy, I believe your Grace is in the true of it. And now, to conclude, from the above Particulars, in all probability, when, and wheresoever our Army Approaches, the Irish will either Desert or Submit, rather than truckle to the French Tyranny, and Absolute Power; which that that they may do, is the earnest Desire of, Your Assured Friend, and Servant, W.
