Licensed and Entred according to Order Printed by Edw. Jones for Robert Clavel at the Peacock in St. Pauls Church-yard MDCLXXXIX A TRUE ACCOUNT Of the Present STATE OF IRELAND GIVING A full Relation of the New Establishment made by the late King James c. DURING my stay at Dublin which with much difficulty and hazard I left on June the 8th I made it a great part of my Business to be well inform'd of the State of Affairs in Ireland and of the most remarkable matters that past there which I had the opportunity of doing as well by my own Observation as by what I received from Persons of Credit that I frequently conversed with that thereby I might be enabled to give such an Account as might be serviceable to the Government here upon my Arrival to be acquainted with which in the following Narrative I have endeavoured to do with all possible Sincerity and Impartiality The Revenue of Ireland is quite sunk no Money being raised but by the Excize that for this Year and half past there has not been paid one Penny of the Civil List and now the late King has been forced to make a new Establishment and gives only Half Pay which he calls Subsistance They grumble at it and are ready to Mutiny To the Foot Three pence per day and for the Officers 't is no matter he makes them Content The Dragoons have Five pence fa●thing and the Horse Six pence per day He proposeth this One half Money and the other Forrage The Horse Granadiers Fifty in each Troop Seven Regiments of Horse 2750. Men Seven Regiments of Dragoons 3800 Men The Royal Regiment of Foot Twenty two Companies 1980 Men. Forty two Regiments of Foot more 33852 Men. The total is 42432. Of this Army there are about 17000 drawn Northwards against Londonderry and Enniskilling which are of the best both of Horse and Foot and have been so harassed that within these ten days past they were not in any condition of Service there are Five thousand more gone after these towards Enniskilling and more on their March so that there are near Twenty five thousand gone against Londonderry and Enniskilling Besides this they designed two Camps by Dublin which Camps were to consist of 14000 Men the first Grand Camp was to be at Rath●arnam betwixt that and Rathmines on the South of Dublin in the view of the Harbor The next Camp was to be under the Hill of Dunsink near the Cabaragh North-West of Dublin and in view of the Bay also Colonel Sarsefield lies at Sligoe with his Own Regiment and some Dragoons and has received several Rubbs from the People of Enniskilling It is said there came One hundred and fifty thousand pound with the late King from France to Ireland and Three hundred thousand pound with the Fleet that arrived at Bantry but by as near a computation as possibly can be made we cannot find that there came above One hundred and fifty thousand pound in all the first being Sixty thousand pounds and the last Ninety thousand pounds and about Nine hundred French English Scotch and Irish Officers came this last time with the Fleet all which receive the same allowance with the Officers of the Army proportionable to their Stations and Qualities The French Ambassador influences all Affairs both Civil and Military and 't is discoursed amongst themselves what a prejudice he has against his present Majesty having formerly been Ambassador in Holland he often presses for severity to be used against the Protestants No violence whatever that is acted by any of the French dares be complained of but it is stifled immediately and he that complains is frowned on He has influenced the passing the Bill for destroying the Act of Settlement insomuch that he has said that he would go again to France if it were not done to tell his Master Monsieur Boysloe the Governor of Cork's Letter to the French Ambassador was the occasion of the Imbargo at Dublin on Saturday May 18. last past The late King is wholly at their Discretion and Tyrconnel is mightily discomposed both in Body and Mind since the King came For the French Ambassador said If any one had served his Master as he did about Londonderry in taking away the Lord Mountjoy's Regiments he would have lost his Head. The Ambassador Commands the Treasury and not one farthing is paid out without his leave for he views the Muster Rolls before he suffers any payments to be made so that the Design is plain French and to bring this Kingdom wholly under them that thereby they may divert England from annoying France But now they are become obnoxious to the People of Ireland who see all that is for the French so that great discontent is upon the Spirits of the Irish on the account of the French being put into Imployments for they generally say and allow that Ireland is given to the French King in consideration of the Charges he shall be at in helping the late King James towards the regaining of the Kingdoms of England and Scotland Monsieur Boysloe at Cork seizes the Merchants Goods Drinks their Wines and in short takes away from them whatever he has a mind to without making them any satisfaction and says it is a shame that any Correspondence should be held with the Rebels of England The Enniskilling People have rummaged the Countrey for near thirty Miles round about them and brought in all the Cattle and Forrage they could find and have disarmed several Companies of the new raised Irish and 't is talked of by the late K. and the Castle that the Garrison of Enniskilling were so resolute that they would attempt the raising of the Siege of Derry the fear of which does somewhat alarm them for about the latter end of May they came near to Kells thirty Miles from Dublin and Westward as far as Finnah burning Luke Reily High-Sheriff of the County of Cavan's House with the Houses of other considerable Papists who were in Arms against them killing only three Soldiers at a place call'd Drum because they refused to quit their Arms and as one Brady who is a Papist and an Inhabitant there declares That they were the fairest Enemy that ever came into a Country not injuring any person that lived peaceably leaving a Troop
