TilE SUN REVIEW. (No. CXXIV.) MORE THOUGHTi,• occasioned toy ttet, publications which the Authors call " An Exposure of some of the numerous Mis-statements and Misteprescntations contained in a Pamphlet, commonly linown by - tha name of Mr. Slarryat's Pamphlet, entitled Ttionghts, ac." and "A Defence of tb, Bill for theltegistration of +laves." By Joscrit MANolviei, Esq. M. P.—gro. pp. 143. 45.--Richardson, and Ridgeway, Piccadilly. Suck is the long title of a very able and amus ing Pamphlet. The Author is distinguished by the shrewdness, ability, and good sense, with which he has opposed himself in the House of Comm Ons, and in preceding publications, to the ulterior proceedings of that political Party which has obtained great influence among us, midis known by the familiar appellation of Tice Saints... It is not par duty, neither do we feel afl) in clination to take a side in the hot controversy which is waged between the West India Colo nies and Mr. MABIIYAT, on the ,one part, and the aforesaid Saints, and Mr.Wtt.Bauroaca on the other. As is perhaps the case-in all contentious, the several combatants carry their hostilities a little too far, but we are free to acknowtedgelhat we consider those of the most pacific name to he by much the greatest aggressors in this respect: — And not only so, bat the most dangerous in every other point of view. If Mr; MARHYAT and his Party are wrung, all the evil that can result from their error is the postponement of the solution of a political problem, doubtless very in ieresting .to humatisitY, but not involving the des tinies of our native country. But if, on the con trary, Mr. Wmaattroace and It's partizans .are carrying tire rage for experiment to extremes, if they are'littrgetting what is practicable, and tlis sentinating unripe opinions to unhinge the frame of Society in our populous colonies before it is possible. to realize the expectations they ex cite, their labtsors, however honest and well meant they may be, are of the most perilous ten dency.* , Such was our fear before the late accounts * The following statement chews how mueb the Negro population is disturbed by the new ligAte thrown in uputt them:--- " Letters front Jamaica bring alarming act s ounts of the rebellious state of mind among the negroes in that island chiefly excited by M. Wfmarouce's projected Registry Bill, which these debuted people conceive is to emancipate them. In. the parish of St. Elliabeth, nocturnal meetings have been discovered among the negrues, where they Were singing the following song b+- " My good friend Wilberforce and good Gott Almighty, " Give &hue negro free, U God Almighty tbauk ye, " 0 God Almighty thank ye. " 13► rt Ducltra in this country wont make we take . it, " What must negro do what roust negro do? " Apst take hest by force-0 to be sure, • " to be *urn. " negro was discovered at one of these meetings singing the above sung ei a leader, dressed in black and white, With a turinin and the - negro styled lahustif King of the libees;" reached us from the We3t Inttles, atol it is the appalling aspect of alidirs in that quarter which these accounts force us to draw, that induces us thus early to d irect the public atteution to the able Pamphlet under review. It would be inconsistent with our plan, and Inexpedient with our limits ) to enter much at length into Ole various important topics which it discusses. To a Work so much within the reach . . of every one, we refer for the exposure of what appear to be some very disingenuous manceuvres of Writers on the opposite side, and some curious facts relate to Sierra Leone, Berbice, &c. &c. We stibjoits an extraet, however, as a specimen ot the summer ialvitielt Air. MA Rl' AT has treate4l the question. It is writren to demonstrate the existence of the f.inatieal and revolutionary spirit which he imputes to his antagonists. " The first objection to the Register Bill which Mr. Stephen examines, is, that the measure is brought forward in - a fanatical, uncl►aritable, and, revolutionary spirit and lie maintains, that during the last eight years, our fanatical, jaco binical, and n►isehievous labours, fur the Abolition of the Slave Trade, have been the subject of pane- gyric by all patties, their own not excepted.'— The Abolition of the Slave Trade has no relation whatever to, or connected with, the Emancipa tion of the Slaves,—which is now the avowed ititention of Mr. Stephen and his friends ; nor with the proposed Registry. of Slaves by an Act of the thitisli Parliament,—uniess he cnn prove (what Lie cannot prove) that such a measure is necets:►ry to put a stop to the illicit importation of Slaves from Africa, into the British West In- a Islands. " That fanatical, jacobinical, mischievous la bours have been, and still are, operating, and that they have not been the subject of panegyric by all parties, but on the contrary reprobated by the highest authority among us, is easily proved. The dangers arising. from the interference of clubs, Societies, associations, institutions, and other self coustitnted bodies of men, with the political tuoc lions of 'the Executive Government, were hotly animadverted upon_ in the.llonse of Commons by Lord Castlereagh, With great force and justice.-- n this country, we are happily free fruits that spirit. of military jacobioisur, as his Lordship termed it,. which has lately been so predominant in France ; but we have much to fear front two other spirits, equa lly d a ngerous; which have gone forthainong us;.--ihe spirit of jacobinical philosophy, and the spirit of wild fanaticism. The danger too is the. greater, from their having coalesced, and acting iu conceit. Indeed, notwithstanding the appa -rent' discrepanco of their nature, there is a strong bond of union between them ; for although the fanatic's are not philosophers, the philosophers are great fanatics. • "- Every philosopher would move heaven and earth, were it possible, to establish his favourite hypothesis. ' As Mr. Burke' has' observed, ' no thing is so hard as the heart of a thorough-paced met physician. It is like that of the principle of evil himself. incorporeal, pure, mixed, unmixed, dephlegmated, defecated evil. They never See the way to their projected good, but through the road of some evil. Their imagination is not fatigued with the contemplation of human , sufferings, through the wild waste of centuries,' added to centuries of misery and desolation. Their lin- , 'wont y is at the horizOn; and, like the horizon, it always flies before them. These'philosophers consider men, in their experiments, no more titan they do mice 'in an air-pump, or in a re cipient of mephitie gas. They are carried On with such a headlong- 'rage towards their despe rate trials, that they would sacrifice the whole human race to the slightest of their experi ments.' HOw,dreadfully were these truths confirmed in the French Revolutioo, that practical Illustra tion of the theory of liberty,- equality, and the rights of man ; a fascinating theory which turned the heeds of halt Europe. The tree was goodly to the eye, but bitter were its fruits ; anarchy', con&scation, and massacres. These philosophers oversee the altar and the throne ; set up a drunken strumpet ,as the goddess of reason ; and While they were prating about the pet fectihilitv of human nature, they and their followers were committing every ahomination by Which human nature could possibly he degraded. Those who vainly imagined they could ride in the whirlwind and direct the storm, perished in the tempest they had raised`; and those whit inflamed the minds of the people, fell victims to the violent passions which they had set in motion. Notwithstandiog this winning vaicc, some of our thetaphylici a ns still think fa s:citirea' bly of the experiment ;• for ()vie of them, nth longer ago than ill the late clebate'in the House of Commons on the Treaties, described the -French Revolution as noble and virtuous struggle, on the part of the people, to reform the abuses of a bad Government 1 . 1 " With respect to the fanatics, the history of all ages histishewn the tendency of religious zeal, when it fails of accomplishing its objects of per suasion., to resort to persecution and violence This truth has been repeatedly exemplified, not only in our own days, but in our own country. "pi the year 1780, under the cry of no popery, rPRICr, SEVENPF,Nen; 1, 1 a fanatical mob.oVersel all w ,and w•ti.-r, broke open , the jailb, let loose ; the felons, ievied eontri. butions from street to street burnt anti pillaged houses, set the metropolis on fire in various places, and would have laid it completely in ashes, but for the interference of the military„.. Those by whont this cry was first setup,, probably ,meant no more . . . . than the dne maintenance of that Protestant ascen dancy, which forms au integral part of the British Constitution ; but the consequences that ensued furnish another lamentable proof, how much easier it is . to inflame', than allay, the passions of the people. " Thottgb the spirit of fanaticism then.received a salutary check, it has greatly revived since its onion with the spirit of false philosophy ; and both have lately strewn themselves in increasing strength. '' In this spirit, pursuing the end regardless of the means, and doing evil that grind may come, the African Institution devised those instructions to theO e mmanding officers of his Majesty's nm-. arty, sits) the Courts of Viro-Admirnity, which. occasioned the capture and condemnation of tO many foreign vessels, carrying t)11 the S,laveiratie in perfect conformity to the laws of their owry country; for which Great Britain has been obliged to make coMpensation, as being contrary to the taith of treaties, and the rights of n itions. " In the same •spirit, sonic of them declared, in the House of Commons, that they would rather have continued the late war on the continent, that have consented to make any peace that did not stipulate for the immediate Abolition of the Slave Trade by France. The good sense of the House, however, over-ruled this extravagant pro.» position,' which would have perpetrated the mi series that had so long desolated Europe, in the' hope of obtaining an eventual and itnegnivalent benefit for Africa. Such intemperate counsels Would probably have deteated their own object,i which has since been happily attained by the %els• dons and moderation of his Majesty's Ministeri, without either ex pence or bloodshed. " In the Saute spirit, an attempt was made, first by a pamphlet wiitten by one Director of the Af r i can I ns titution, and- then by a IMILIOn matle its th e !louse of Commons by $lOOl her, to phaigis this country into is war with Spain. Ttie.•torini:r urging it onithe ground of • her having refused in concede the immediate Abolition ut ttle Slave Trade, On the coast of Atria tsi•irth of , the Line ; and the lat,er on th . e plea of Ferdinand Vii. Inkv ing n std towinds his owu subjects, not on tilos& principles of liberty which are happily established in thi. country, hut oh those princioles of despo.

After having .eitrittstl ferment throughout the nation, by publiiiiing accounts, sOttic of which were groksly exaggerated. and others wholly ittifoundeil,theysuppressed intor- Illation addressed to themselves,whice they knew to be official and authentic, end by which t hat ferment might have been allayed. Had his Molest y's . ters listened to the precipitate seggest ions of these mistaken and :blind zealots, this country would probably have been plunged into a teeth! Contest with the Government of France. " In the same spirit, with the view of scrolls- , plishing the emancipation of the slaVes, they urged Parliament to violate the legislative rights of the West India Colonies, end enact 11C;19, pains a nd penalties on offences altogether imagi. -nary. They still persist in this itleasurC, nuts withstanding the agitation they know it has ex , • cited among the sieves,' and ike danger, of insing both•property and life, to which it exposes their masters. Tints these zealots and theorists, would havet us new model the Government of other countries,. according to our. own fashion; and set out right ing' wrongs and redressing grievances, till like Don Quixotic we had our teeth knocked downc ant.` throats, the liberated. by the galley-slaves whom we libetea• prejudices of the Spanish nation appeat to he so strong, in favour of that arbitrary sys tem in which they were born and bred, that -Fer dinand the Vllth: seems ,to have re-established his popularity, .by the very measures which we ate called upon to reprobate and prevent. In the in stance 'of the Ftwnett Protestants, -zed nod theory. persisted In interfering on behalf of those by whom their interference was deprecated, its not, only unnecessary hut calamitous ; and they stdl persist with respect to the West Indies, in defi ance of the warning given them, of the dangers to which they ,are .exposing every Glass of th West' Indian commnnity. " Imituting“the cool indifferenceof an operator. dissecting a living animal and viewing its agonies with unconcern, while his own_ mind is intent upon 'the solution of some new experiment, or the discovery, of some. hidden phenomena, these, self constituted bodies still pursue their projects, are continually urging 'the country into violent 'and ,extravAgant measures, attempttttgtolnterfete with, and enutroul, the lecular constituted authorities ; and his Majesty's Ministers must either -mike a stand against theite assumptions. nt power, 04 give up the reins of Government ultosettlier into their hands.'' Mr. MARRYAT next gives a curious account of a Saint, Black-mut White mixture, Meeting ;-it the Freemasons' Tavern ,which we are sorry our limits prevent,' us front copying, as it is a complete ex - pose of the Coolish doctrines, which, it they 1110.04 any thing, must intend to: set up Free: Nresro Empire, in opposition to tht V01041;10, by steads
