Will be enacted, I say, feeling confident as I do, that the wisdom of the Legislature will validate the care of the Sovereign. These indispensable precautions against the tongue, the sword, and the pen of disaffection may be thus marshalled I I.

It is some assurance, that seditious meetings and seditious writings will never again find their wonted faci lity but I deeply lamen , , that the power of setzit.g• arms should be only local and temporary. I lament. ton, that no penalty Is contemplated on those who shall refuse or evade delivering up all the arms in their reach or possession, so soon n 3 legally demanded. Still more, that the precise purpose and boundary of petition is not defined, and thereto limited, even in county meetings. They who experienced, as I did, all the mischiefs and dangers of this uncertainty in Ireland, in the case of the Popish Delegates, will join in my re gret. Let 110 man start at my further regret — that the -Hnheas Corpus Act is not—in cases of blasphemy, sedition, and treason—to be s uspended— upon Lord CASTLEREAGH'S just and incontro vertible axiom, which I have long laboured, faithfully though perhaps feebly, to support, that the restriction of the bad is the protection of the good. I cannot imagine what cause of fear any honest, or loyal, or religious person can entertain against such a mea sure ; were it even enacted permanently. If, however, the wise restrictions which his Lord ship has brought forward, shall be found, in consequence of his anxious lenity, inadequate to their.purposr ; if seditious men shall still -con trive some evasion of the law; then, I trust, no measure vein be considered too severe, too de cisive, too extinctory of Rebellion. I care not for the language of the law; I look only to its spirit 5 and that, I know, is the pre servation of the Constitution. Here again 1 re peat my axiom ; and never will I cease repeating it ; to save the Constitution, nothing is unconstitu tional. An Englishman's proper freedom is, not thsit hi shall have the liberty of doing what he pleases to others ; but, that none shall have the liberty of doing what they please to him. They who understand by the term " Freedom," any thing beyond " security and peace," are fitter objects for the new law than for any animad version. TENAX. P. S. I am in no small degree gratified by the alarm into which my suggestions have thrown The Afanchesier Observer. This Radical Journal styles them " infamous," and calls for County Meetings to remonstrate against their adoption. at, how I love the throes and agonies of these criminals ! They had better make haste with their next assembly, before they are liable to be hanged for attending it.
