We are mach gratified at the caloeideace of some remarks, leech is the spirit of those with which we attempted to reply to the Loyal Declarations is our Paper of yesterday, which Some jest appointed is the Scotsman. We are free to *chummier* that the ar gument of the Scetresse is more compreheesive than our ems; It leads, however, to she same resell; that tiro ceetemplatioe of the probable Wee of the straggle new reel% betties@ the &kraus sad the Adedni.tratioe. The writer, believer, is net amity liberal I. all the parties between whom he jedges. lie has taken np the sentwary end fa shionable way of replying to the Radical Reformer', by essesing that their design is revolutionary. and that le extend the franchise to the extent claimed by the Radical Reformers, is to subvert the Constitution totally. Upon what this argument is grounded Heaves knows, for certain it is, that ',either no Courier, nor the Whigs, nor the Scots man, who is much more discreet then the Whip, tire• any thing at all of the matter of proof. If they d; , l, they would of necessity show it, and moreover sours of them at least would lease off osing the epithets proonourced against it, and in lies thereof descend to the proofs of its immure. I ptiety.--As the Scotsman very justly observes, no one can honestly complain of oho sodas 101 l ll f the press; it is open to all parties to propose oniaions, and he is perfectly tight in assert ing that the people have not made t►eir election without a full investigation and comparison of them all. It is a pity that he should atop short of his owe unavoidable conclusion, end take away from the opinions of the free jedgirig majority, that discreet merit which his position swords them, to bestow it the Whigs, and, what be terms, the moderato party. The iniaciple of Gene.al Suffrage iv, un dombtedly, so equitable principle; no ono will deny its filiffifill in 11141 abstract; indeed, they might as well deny the equal aloe of lifts or limbo to each separate individual ; and as to the danger of it, the same argument will apply to the danger of allowing the clones proposed for esclusion from it the right of existence. It can poly be dangerous to the views of certain presuming and usurping politicians, whose partial advantages have no more to do with the well ordering of society, than the appetite of s voracious to►tle eater has with mend health. The Seaman does not perceive that the very selfishness which he has detected in the working of oar Parliamentary sj stem, ar:•l which, as he observes, bas prevented the Senate from being be. troyed inio any one act beneficial to the people for mote than this', years past, is the war thins wills that which makes the Whigs and Moderators abjure, con. tenin„inselr, and columnist' General Soffrsee. No one of them argots with it, though most of them "abhor" h. The Scotsman is too good a metaphysician to re. girlie to be told that no one can give a logics' reason for " abhorring" opinions, and shut the only motive to such a feeling lies in wounded or endangered *el fishness. We reed not 'shear this esgensent with ypect to the Whigs; they deem themselves heirs presumptive of Administration, and according to a eery natural bias, they would limit the member of persons to whom they 'weld be responsible as mech as decency will allow. As to the Me desaters, lobo object to General Soffrage, sad pet hare en great seal fee the Whir, who de. den, that they would be contest, with a more Malted West of Saler, we would merely ask them, if they world make up their minds to say which should keep them out ? Here is a piece of ealf.delusion, which many good mem practise on them. wives; they think themselves quite impartial, and very gravely announce, as one proof of their dials. trrestedoess, that they will be content with House ' hold Softer. And shy shoed they not ? Does mot this enure even more than their own shore? At present most of them hare no voice ; grant them this without 'Blending it farther, and they would possess , the power which belongs to the classes below them, es sell as that ■Lich they themselves are constitationally entitled to. Sorely the 'scission of lodgers and bogie. keepers equally is a more eqsitable principle than the 'ad mission of one without the othe►. We know the evil effects of this partiality in lb. present state of elections, wherein (strong" to relate in this democracy. hating period) the poorest and mast immoral have the majority of votes by an overwhelming proportion. — The housekeepers are apt to flatter themselves, that if the greater proportion of Suffrages were bestowed on 1111,00 be Government would be more righteously sdeni. !astern'.

The Impress, the Hawkers' Licence Act, the Combination Laws passed close to the time of repealing the Apprenticeship Act, to say nothing of the Corn Mill, and the unequal pressure of the Militia Ballot : all thee* prove a partial and selfish tendency, which secretly operates to ti.e dissdestitsg. of the poorer classes, and which can only he re pressed by allowing the dee ezersise of their Here seotative sights.
