Vie have for SOW time past been in the habit of receiving numerous complaints, both from Town and Country, of ir regularity in the delivery of Tue For AT ESII AN, arising partly from the !ate delivery of the Paper at the Office, and partly from the substituting of another Paper instead of it. We have, however, now the satisfaction to state, that by the removal of the late EDITOR, such inconveni ence is not "gabs likely to occur, as the paper will in fu ture go to press at an early hour, and the Newsmen may be supplied in due time, to enable them to deliver it be fore Five &Clod,. in the most distant parts of the Town. We avail ourselves of the present opportunity to point out the advantages that would result to ApvERTISEItS, parti cularly in the Sale of Estates and other Property, in fa vouring this Paper with their Adverti.ements, from the very estensive circulation of 'Tuts STATESMAN, and the respect4hility of its Readers. THE STATESMAN. Meier] with them. Mr. Warmest) is well awes (4 this ; and as we bare reason to suppose that he has s desire, which we will call reasonable in itself, to see Earl Garr in office, and probably tome my Lord GRINVILLS ;Ise in powcr,shat Gentleosauts &titration at the City Meeting may betaken"' 1 • 11 10 pledge that those Noblemeu have at length opened their eyes to the Ulnas well as the infamy, of the , sinecure system. The Whigs arc aware that they are losing, if they hare not lost, the public fa. your, and they complain of this as injustice in the people. It is to be lamented ; but it is no injus. tice. The Whigs, from their rank, their pro perty, and their political creed, pre the persons the people would naturally desire for Ministers. But then, their actions must accord with their po litical professions ; and, above all, they must awaken to a sense pf the necessity of the times, which admits of no half-formed virtues, but requires a whole heart, bent solely on the pub. lic good, and a mind, whose greatest grati fication is self-denial in the public service. If the NVhigs will not go this length, they mistake the nature of the times, and must be content to fall as low as their political enemies, in the public esti mation. There is a knowledge growls up in the public mind, that will not calmly look upon the plunderers of the nation, and a dis tress in the concerns of individuals that can not bear the contipuation of the system. Re form, therefore, must come ; and a Reform that will restore the people's right entire, and, of course, will keep their purses closed to all, but the just claims of a frugal Government. If the Whigs will not see this in time, (for see it the)/ must) they will fall iu the public esteem, never to be restored ; and, by that blindness, which is at once the offspring and punishment of selfish ness, will exclude themselves from Owe high offices they do seek, and may seek with a just and I laudable ambition. The Whigs may be assured, that the groat bulk of the true friends of the country wiih to see that party in power ; but it must be reformed Whip the people must hare ; and without a true politi cal reformation in the Whigs, let them be per. suadcd the Tories will be more welcome to the people than themselves, because the injury of their abuses can be no greater, and the insult will he less. This is a subject of considerable auziety to all moderate men in this country. They do knew, that the Whigs might Isae essentially served the country, might indeed have saved it from the shame and injury of being governed as it now is. They know that the Whigs may still co-operate to restore public prosperity; and they eagerly wish to see the leading, powerful, and honour. able meta among them, take that course. But they are every day pressed by the imperious neces sity of cirr.umstances to abandon their hupes of that party. The result is painful. When inte. grity and abilities are peculiarly necessary to the State, they are compelled to fear that a great mass of abilities and much individual integrity will be lust to it, from that blindness in thcWhigs, which cannot perceive that recu r item in it Statesman, the LOW PASSION of receiving money, without giving va lue fur it, and receiving it from the DISTRESSED' LABOURER ) will no longer be endured ! —But of whatever importance this subject may he to the country, it is still more se to the Whigs. The Country can do without the Whip. Let them not flatter themselves, that when the present un worthy Advisers of his MAJESTY are out, the So vereign, and the Nation, are thrown upon them. That there is talent, equal to their own, in that Third Party, which has so gloriously risen, and so rapidly swelled in numbers, namely —the INDEPENDENT FRIENDS of the CONSTITU. VON—is now universally acknowledged ; and there is a growing conviction in the great ma's of the People, that theta is no absolute necessity for a monopoly of Government successively by the Warns and die TonfEs. The p?iu fact is this . , —the People can yet coalesce with the Winos—if the Whigs will throw themselves away, good men may lament the fact ; but the cause of the People cannot, will not, lie lest in the lamentation. A rrived. Made. Due. - 2 0 . Coliettburgli. . 1 0 C44iA LONDON: MONDAY ) ♦EI(IL 23, 1810. alr EAST6II. MO rDAY and ST. GEORGO —ll•liday at the Public-Ojices. Tux Public having lately been much disgusted with the vain boasting of an Editor belonging to a New Evening Paper, representing himself as the " late Conductor of Tut STaTi.smax," the whole of which being a grAs fabrication, we deem it necessary to state the following observations iu reply thereto. The PRINCIPLES of TUC STATESMIN are too ' well established to stand in need of any duzlara. tion on our part ; and the Public may rest assured the INDEPENDENCE of the Paper will not suffer any diminution by the removal of the late Editor, whoso writings had, for sonic time previous to his dismissal, been rejected as unfit for the Paper ; and we have also reason to 'believe that his new efforts have greatly disappointed the hopes and expectations of his friends. If any political ar. tides hero appeared in THE STATESMAN during the period mentioned loy,this person, styling him self the sole Conductor, they certainly have been sanctioned bythe SOLE PROPRIETOR, and could not have been inserted without his consent, although the Proprietor has reason to know that some ar. tielus wore smuggled into the Paper without his knowledge, containing Libels upon INDIVIDUALS, (Jr which he is now actually under prosecution. IT is high time the people should know who are their friends ; and certainly it would afford them no little gratification, if among the number they should find many of those persons whose'rank and condition in life give them a natural authority in the State, and whose professions have heretofore led the people to place a considerable confidence in them. Mr. IVIIITBItEAD said , at the City Meeting the other day, " Sinecures were in the wane ; and that sinecures must be abolished even if Parliament were not reformed.' , We were glad to hear Mr. WHITBREAD make this open and im. portant declaration—not that Mr. WUITEREAD need make any declaration fur himself on this to. pic ; but that Gentleman has political eon. flexions of which the public urn really jealous, and from which quarter all the best friends of the country would rejoice to hear a like declaration. Mr. WiIITIIREAD is allied to Earl GREY by tics of relationship, and we believe by habits of friendship and cyufideuce. IVe shall not accuse Lord GREY of wishing for 'any sinecure himself, or even of any proneness to open the public purse to ethers fur any purpose but actual services to the Public. But his Lordship, we believe, is inti. ►nately bound in political ties to my Lord GRENT. VILLE, and, in fact, Earl GREY ha► not political Influence sufficient to be a leading Member of a new Adoduistratron s independent of my Lord GIiENTILLC. Now ) the ORENVILLES arc amongst the greateait of the Pensioners of the Country. We du not mean to use harsh words in speaking of such men as Lord Gazxvii.t.e, who might pos. scss the entire public esteem if he pleased. But the door, and the sole entrance to that esteem, as he is placed, a sinecure holder, and as the country is situated, sick of public expences, is the willing resignation of all his own sinecure emoluments, and the firm resolve to abolish all suck emoluments, whomsoever that salutary mca. sure may affect. If my Lord GRENVILLE is not yet pseparcd for such sacrifices, his Lordship must still accustom his car to those harsh phrases from others, describing himself and his family, which we are uun Wing to use. In the mean time, while the con ten lion for power is going on, the Public will give no support to any act of men, whatever their pre tensions, who do not unequivocally renounce all sinecures and pensions for themsel►es and all con. ••••.g.10,.... W E again insert Sir FRANCIS BURDETT'S Letter to hit Constituents, in answer to their Letter, voted at the late Meeting. It reflects the highest honour on the mind and feeling of that eminent Patriot. We this morning received Portuguese papers down to the 7th inst. They speak of advantages gained over the French in Spain ; and we feel it our duty to continue to give the principal part of these documents, although we seldom rest with any degree of confidence upon them, and of course carinot recommend them to the atteatioa of our Readers.
