Tilt NATIONAL REGISTER. lege of legal redress ? The great palladium of English liberty is our lialteas Corpus,—will you grant this to the meatie,t and deny it to the highest ? ue English feeling, shudder at the reply, and tevo!t at the . attempt. This would be, indeed, breaking down the fences, and trampling upon the most sa cred rights of the Constitution ; and this, sir, you justly conceive as the vital - issue of the proceedings In the case of her Royal Ilighnes the Princess CuA ItIOTTE. This, it.deed, is the vital question for all men to discuss; for, if once violated in her person where it descend next ? Wh,, can reckon upon his freedom, if such practices be tole rated in England ? Yeti will inde:.d have seen, S:!-, that the slaves of a Junta won'tl thrdw off the oet/8 they have incurred. Sir, The Cow icr is only the organ,---the -principalactors arc be hind the scenes. Insinuation and mis-statement arc their weipons of attack and defence : they never state a fact, how- . ever well authenticated, without a commentary that perverts , it; and, like a cet tain anima!, sac! dice a certain part of their • character, to be allowed to retain the privilege of in , ,ulting the public. It remains, Sir, with you to put an end to the delusion, to strip-these demi-official monstets, and to sus t tin tht. noble disinteredness, the love of ft eedom, and the undoulAed I H .alty that have always distinguished Bareisii LE[.] SGS tied Biterisn 1.172 E RTY. This, S•a, is not the language of disaffectioe or of invective: we abhor the one and despise the other; but, since liberty of speech is truth, aid truth the blessing of an upright mind and a free consti tution, it i 3 neither the pompous nothings of a Prime IMinis tA., nor the alit eted indignation of the Woolsat k, that will deter the people from bestowing upon your labours tae re ward of their honest approbation and support. si r , we ow e to the House of Brunswick the security of our Liberties, and the Ilouse of Brunswick owe their Successjon to our gratttude and affection. England is a thinking na tion, not easi!y changed or seduced : but it is wrong to tempt us to the blink ; there is no security fir rallmess ; the power that sustains may destroy obedience, to sit easy, should be voluntary ; and the fate of dcTotistn is too re cent to require either illustration or argument. The nation, Sir, look tip to you with confidence, -and ou have intitled youtself equally to the gratitude of your Royal Brother and the Country. If, indceo, he has acted as n-bly as &Set ibed, the Public will rejoice at the eulugium— the People will be satisfied--our tire-works will emit more splendor, and our estimate of the virtues will he ennobled by a living example instead of allegorical representations that fiance the pride and delude the understanding.
