 Paritions of Poland
Not only the Confederations of the small group of non-Catholic nobles, but also the Confederation of Radom, in that same year of 1767, which apparently united the opposition against both Poniatowski and foreign pressure in favor of the “Dissidents,” were inspired by Russia with a view to creating a state of anarchy.
It was concluded in Bar, a frontier town in Podolia, under the leadership of Bishop Krasinski and the Pulaski family, and must be considered the first of so many Polish struggles for national independence.
A hopeless attempt at kidnaping Poniatowski only harmed the cause of the patriots and seemed to justify the cooperation of royal troops with the Russians who were determined to crush the “rebellion.” Furthermore, the hopes of the confederation to obtain foreign support against the overwhelming forces of Catherine II were disappointed to a large extent.

Confederation of Bar; and then, as progeny of that, for and against, such a brood of Confederations, orthodox, heterodox, big, little, short-lived, long-lived, of all complexions and degrees of noisy fury, potent, at any rate, each of them for murder and arson, within a certain radius, as the Earth never saw before.
The rumor and the furious barking of Bar and its whelps goes into all lands: such rabid loud baying at mankind and the moon; and then, under Russia`s treatment, such shrill yelping and shrieking, was not heard in the world before, though perhaps it has since.
To complete the matter, the Confederates in certain quarters, blown upon by fanatical priests, set about converting these poor peasants, or forcing them, at the point of the bayonet, to swear that they adopt the `Greek united rite,` which I suppose to be a kind of half-way house towards perfect orthodoxy.
