~, ~, FOR THE SUN. ANTI-DEMOCRACY. MR. EDITOR—Since Youtt supelintendance and management of THE SUN, I !rave always admired your disinterestedness and independence ; and al 'thong', you give, as it were, a general support to the present Glvernwent, it is evident, that the in clination of your mind, and the Constitutional principles you hare always openly professed, lead you to feel to stronger interest in favour of one of the. Divisions of the Cabinet than the other ; hot that whoever may be in the possession of the 'Government, it is 11 sine qua non With you to tn3intaio the Motrarel and the People agalust the overechelming influence of the Old Aristo- trricy, which was so timely and so consti,n tionally clieelted by that illu“rioos St;ifeA;l43n, the first Cu. Tin at, and controu!ed by the influence of his no less illus!tious Son. A great deal is now said iihont Democracy and itttortn, and the danger to be apprehended from both of them ; hut from a rational and tempe- rdte Refortn, no dispassionate, disinterested, and irt►hartial man will sl►tii,k or contemplate (linger ; but whilst the Ohl Aristorracy resist all endea vonrs to place 7HE CLOSE BOROUGHS on their ancient constitutional footing, it is not surprising that tl►e People should be dissatisfied with fh,e Pre rem state of the FlelneF,eitiation of the Country. liar! the Bill to regulate the Elections in Close Boroughs, which► you, and your cotemporary in a respectable Morning Paper, so ably sup ported ri:►tin;; the lost Sessions pas:e,l into a Law, the People wouLl hare hall, as they term it, SOME UARNEST of the intention ot the Ugislatore and Government to correct the aht‘s , ..:s which 14revail in thoSe places ; and it is arirnt:ted by the Oppo s:tion, ot whom opposed that Bill, Ow had it passed it would have been, a wore tationdl, thongh extensive Reform, than any which h.d taken place for a century. Yet this Bi l l, th(wgli 1101 opposed by i4linicters, was lust, from the con duct ot the Opposition, who bad only Ilte'night before carried the Question for a Ref or at in the Scotch Boroughs. I am led to make these remarks from the ru mours which are afloat respecting !:•,e ►tnsettleti state of some of the Distriuts,—and as I do not knoW any plan so likely to appease the SOBFR-21.1iN1nD portion of the Community, who are beginning to sheyr symptoms of an intention to support and join ti,e views of the Reformers—than by the PuaLtC }Tress—feallessly,and independently miintaininz, broAly,the neceSsiry olcorrectiOg the corrupt prac tices which prevail in the Close Boroughs, and by recommending Petitions to PArliament to saject all the Electors in those places to the same re gulations as the Voters in Counties and Cities - I make the FIRST appeal, through the medium of your Paper, convinced that your good sense, rb- Sic spirit, and patriotism, will never allow you to shrink from the performance of your public duty, and influence you NOT to insert in it those arti cles which may be sent you, the object of which is to restore to its original state and purity the Representation of the Country. I hope never to see you—l know I never shall—the Advocate of Annual Parliaments, or of Universal Suffrage ; but something must be done to satisfy the rational, reflecting, and industrious classes of the cow- The rapid progress which education is making, throughout the Empire demands it ; (or as the re-; novation of the Representation of the Commons Noose of Parliament must be slow and progressive, it therefore ought not to be delayed—but to be entered upon - seriously and honestly early in the next Session ; otherwise we shall have, in a very few years, such a MASS OF INTELLECT let loose upon the Country, as will be tincontroulable ; if it is not judiciously anticipated anti met, by every improvement and amendment, which time' and the change of circumstances in the Coun try have rendered necessary. For myself, have no apprehension of danger from the People—for When the present moment of their in itation .is passed, " their quiet good , sense" will revive in their bosoms the Same ardent affection for their King aini Country which animated their Ancestors in former times. At present they are in the hands of designing, wicked, and foolish men, without morality' or Ito ! . nesty, who have every thing to gain and nothing to lose. But unless the PUBLIC Puess will diligently apply itself to rept ove the delusion under which the lower order labour from the misrepresenta tions of these men, abet etl as they are by the worse part of the Press, nothing can he done ! Jr is not by abusing such worthless fellows as Mr. I-luxT, or by noticing the folly of the cre dolotts Staffordshire Baronet, that the labOtitiog hart of the Community will withdraw flout this connexion, but it can ,only .he achieved by the LUYAL PRESS, and by the MIDDLE IiAUKS of Life, joining with sincertly in an :IYrext. to the Legislature to correct the Abuses xviiich have crew into the Representation of the' Coun• try, a.pd which the Votes and the Reports of the last Session of Parliament too unfortunately, and oo lamentably, exhibit ! If you favour me with an insertion of this Communication, I shall ven ture again to intrude on your attention, NUMA PONIPILIUS. Dick's Coffee-bons?, .Tuls , 15, 1519. .LONDON JOURNALS.

(From " The ,Blackhitrn Mall," July 14.) The, poor people here still remain quiet, and liatieney wait for a revival in trade. When we consider the privations autieierl by the lower oideis, we need not wonder that Reformers so easily -work upon their passion., and impose upon their ignorance by inthuirnatory language. That the wravers in this town have bee,n long labouring very diligeutly to procure a scanty sub-. 515(CliCe, Mine Who is acquainted with their situa tion can deny. Every man of sensibility must feel for them, and wish to alleviate the miseries that press upon them. But whilst we perceive those to whom they looked' for employment in volved in ruin, or alarmed by losses, we cannot call upon master manufacturers to give advanced wages, and thus sacrifice all that their industry may have acquired, although pity may prompt us to wish the real wants of poverty supplied. The distress which pervades the inet•eantile and trading communities here has not been felt in Britain alone, but has extended over the greater part of Europe, and ravaged the rising commerce of America I. Thai Country, the favourite land of Reformers, has not been exempted front the cala mitous effects of, a declining market, and Conse quent failures of many respectable houses. Every part of the Commercial World, and every indivi dual in it, from the weaver who plys his loom with -constant attention and labour, to. the merchant who stores his vessels with the fruits of that in dually, has partaken in disappointment.- - Amidst distress so common and so extensive, that man must be a wretch indeed, who can per ceive it, and at the same time devise Means to in crease confusion, and - sharpen the of mankind, by endeaVoining to rouse their opposi tion to each other. . Who can view the I Lema.;. gogurs of Reform, seeking to overthrow the Laws and Constitution of their Country, without ' hating them ' for their ingratitude and malice ? Who *cam 'perceive • thorn • wandering into the cottages of poverty, •industry; and peace, to implant in the minds of the illiterate, piinciples dark as the shades of Pluto;' and not detest ahem for misleading and perverting minds which are incapable of weighing, and considering the political measures of a Great Empire l-, Who can know that they ,exact from these poor and unsuspicious creatures contribution towards a reform, to be effected by such men ~us Wolseley, Cobbett,-and-Huut, without feeling ashamed that such miscreants should retain the ;nun of man ? Who can notice the means they employ to ef fect a.. reform, and not contemn and despise them? Who ever heard that men of such man ners and habits prOtessed to mike a political re form, and did not feel that the word " Reform" . was .Irnipooned, and wish. the men reformed in morels ? It is not because we suppose that the [riekr,-Ateri agents of :reform, can ever infuse into the minds of the sensible and, reflecting part of mankind their visionary theories and wild plans, TH SU N.
