Whet, :Or. Goldsmith first broached that doctrine, it s al noticed In the House of Lords by one of the greatm ornaments of the country, Lord Grey, who cool not avoid feeling that the character of his counter was stained by it ; and it was mentioned there, and treated by all persons, on all sides, who t oo k past i n the discussion, Kith the same degree of indignation, that that Noble Lord expressed upon the occasion. Then I ask you, whether Mr. Leven, the Militia; could do asy thing else than state, in his observations upon that sehject, his abhorrence of such a doctrine, and his indignation at such as man, who pollutedthe public press by giving that theory publicity. It Mr. Lovell has been the first to strike the blow aid provoke hostility—Bloc illar lacrgmac in the phrase which the Defendant uses himself.
