It teemed alto to be inti mated that he was mete from the bellowing ade- Oat, rewards, either pecuniary, or honourable, on thole who had ferved their countty, "'Ms he folemn ly and totally denied. He had only Rated, that re ward% timid not precede the Cervices in confcquerce erbith they were underttood to be bellowed. The otir.urs and rewards conferred on the gallant Lord Welfon had been alluded tn. He declared that he • 'jogs the lea man in the kingdom to maintain that Wier Imo - ors or rewards were ton liberally bellowed i•ate•that truly great man "while living, or on his me mory after Tin glorious fall in his country's caufe.-.- He rbjeited that melt and Cervices were not uni formly and fully rewarded, While, on the other hand, unmerited wealth and honours were heaped on men yrho had never at all &weed their country. In this *my, and he was afraid, by no means a folitary in flamer, he &sold allude to - the cafe of a worthy and 1111oritnrinu. Gentleman, Mr. Scott, who fell by the fide of the gallant Nelfon, in the battle off Trafalgar. That Gentleman, if his own eoterprizing fpirit had not prompted him to exile into the heat of aelion. might have been in a place of fafety. Zeal. however, . for the public krviee, made him regardlefa of per focal danger, and he fell at the time moment with his brave Commander. Ye what was the reward attached to his fetvites ? Was it not with difficulty, and after many docbts, and with much helitation, that a pention acme hundred pounds per annum was mluelantly fettled on his wife and children ? At what Trafalgii; he would elk, had Mr. Sheridan been patent ? or, in what manner had he ferned his coun try, to merit a remuneration of fo many thoufands of pounds annually, drawn, as in the prefent (titration of the country they mull be, from the hard earnings of the poor ? Such were his fentiments. and foeh the only objectionable parts in his profeflions, fo far as he had yet underact:ld them. In there tentiments he was likely to continue, but if he fhould be convinced before the fiaal cloth of the Poll, that he had ad• vanced any thing contrary to the true and ancient fpirit and principles of the Conflitu.thit, he thould candidly, avow his error.
