IloisEsT lonsy—You and I have been strangerS to each other for some time past, during whicn our loss and our sorrows have been mutual.--,We have lost Him whose fortitude in supporting his own Rights was the best safeguard for those of his People-111N who accounted it his highest Privilege to maintain, those of his subjects as the basis of his own. But BE has left behind hint a spirit, which, I trust, will for ages yet to come, be embalm ,in the indepeodence of Britain.— Ha ha; left behind him ,osilf who has already roved Jiffs Right to Wield the sceptre of his august Parent, acid if I therefore, my old friend, tesunie the chain of our ioterrapted investigation, it is not from a ny fear of *diminution of your Privileges, hut from au apprehension that you may be led by interested Demagogues to catch at the shadow, whilst they seize upon the substance. For you are now, JOHNNY, on the eve of a GerccaAL acc- Ttost, when every man is as great as any Elector Of the ancient Germanic Empire, nay, as great as a King, particularly after attending the Committee for. the good of the Blue, Buff, Green, or, Yellow Cause, as may - suit the colour of his politics. You remember the story, JOHNNY, of an En• OA Wit, who, findiog souse difficulty in making way through the etiquette of entry at a German Cow t, announced himself as " Elector of ;Middle sex," a title which not only made way for him, hut procured military salutes which had been withheld from Grand Dukes, Landgraves, and Princes; and you, no doubt, whether Elector of Westminster, or of Coventry, will be exposed to as many salutes from the light troops of faction. and the bombardiers of reform, who will talk to you about your independence, just as swindlers talk to country farmers about their purses, in hopes of getting hold of them . either by force or fraud. Yon will hear of Elective Franchises, of Uni versal Sntbage, 14 . 1,1 of the frinenagernoles of the Older time when every man was a Memb,r of Par liament ; b,it you will 'not be easily led astray when you shill be informed of the origin, and state of that so much boasted political assemblage, frotn which ,critr modern tight of Representation has been deduced with more fancy than historical HCCUttley. Thelfact is cleared, proved by the Annals of the Saxon Invasfon and Settlement of Britain,' that the cOniptered lands were nut only granted in con siderable portion to the Chiefs, but also in smaller ones of plough lands to .the great body of adventurers, whose 'descendants bei,,g free, but possessing no Tarns's, were aecststomed to cultivate those of the Thanes, by ti , e year or for a longer Now it has been asset ted by wine writers:, a r nd by many speakerS,'that ell those freemen had a jight of assembling in the National Wittenage mote, or rather . in the Wittenagemote each of the Kingdoms'of the Saxon flepiat city ; whilst others contend that this ptivile.ge was merely con fined to the Thanes ; or, if pOssesed- at first .by ele Childs, was lnst by disuse, their poverty •not Permitting tbem to attend at 'a 'distance front their, homes. • But 'of these opinions there exist no precise or direct historical proofs ; :whilst we !'now beyond a doubt thit the small freeholders slid not form any part of the Wittenagemote in the reign of EDWARD the Confessor, immediateLy before the Norman Invasion, for by the laws and customs of- that reign, even the lesser Thane, possessing' five hides of land, wis debarred from that ptivilege, and the qualification fixed at forty hides, by which means the Assembly was small and select. • I'll fact it is known that its Members consisted of Bishops, Abbots; Abbesses, Eads ors Lorldermen, and the Wiles, or Wise nrin, sup posed to have been the Judges. But then these- ; all sat in one (louse, and 'there were no elected Representatives. lo short, Jo 11 s NY, Mss. Bail -might as well etaitn a tight to sit in Peril:lntent, because Clergyfromen sat in tile I ,7 ittenagentote, as ail thsise who esteem •thent.2elves to be 'Wiles or Wise men can justly. set up a similar cilial. !el 111. It is fortunate thing however, Jont‘;NY, thatr before the Ladie3 ran claim a tight to sit in either lion , e, they must lake ordets—bw, you know, my woriby old ft lend, that is a subject ito which Mrs lIVLL and .hrr fair friends are more inclined to give than take, so that thCre is the less chance of tne ranks of Opposition being.crowded Snub was the state of the much-hoasttd Wit; tenagcmote in its most petlist fo:m j but crL ft it) In fact, ioittoli, the rights of Men even at that Period, were . little More than power and sub jection, Whilst the manners and customs were but little adapted to general or individual Liberty; but that portion of the subject we must now postpone for future investigation. Yo u t's, IGNOIVS. 1()1t T 111; SUN. 144. THE REPUBLICAN.--No. V. We have seen by what means Republican no tions and Republican ambition were first diffused among the labouring, manufacturing, or profli. gaiety idle classes of the community in this other wise happy countt y. The design of those who instilled these doctrines was no less than that of forcing themselves upon the Clown, by means of the clamour and turbulence of the multitude. The attempt failed, as it always ought to fail, but the pernicious seeds remained to produce their harvest on some futute occasion. •• The French Revolution gave a new and most powerful influence to these principles of mischief. Every British heart beat with joy at the first emancipation of a neighbouring Country, whose Government we esteemed despotic, though it was more so in principle than in practice ; in possi bility than in fact. But when the dangers of Re pnblican fury and•atnbition• were developed, all friends to rational liberty turned from them in disgust, while the •men in whom the poison of Republican notion lay yet dormant, were agitat ed and almost driven to madness by its operation. They corresponded with the French Desperadoes, they fraternized with them, as the phrase then was ; they imitated their proceedings and copied their language; and had not Providence given us a King as firm as he was amiable, and raised up a Minister for him, whdsc talents and whose elia 'racter bore down all Oppositivo, the m:seties oY France would 'probably hive been renewed on ails side of the Channel. • It was at this period (1791) when all was ra pidly tending to the confusions Which. followed, anti which 13uart6 so clearly foresaw, when the unfot innate Louis, as his only hope for safe . y, wits meditating that flight which, Fatally for him, was intercepted,. that the great Leader of the IVhigs dared to prononnee,in Parliament, that " he ad mired the neW Crin,ititn'ti'on of France, considered ,altogether,. as theinost stupendous and glorious edi lice of Lib& ty which had been erected on the founda tion (f human integrity, in any agC or country." 7 Ann.

The approbation of this vale of things, diet clove, .never could !give pro ceeded from the mouth of a Constitutional Eng lish IVhig ; end most haVe been uttered. by that powerful Leader from whom it came, only in the heat of opposition to his ancient friend, or wils a view to conciliate those English Jacobins, by whomlre hoped:tOlke forced up into power. Hot these motives shad doubtless their, lull share of in. !thence. But 66 . ,it die thoug h t surprising, that after such declarations from a man of sock poplar influence, the 'Republican disease h u.ild have spread itself mo'e and more among the populace; or , that, 'even after •all'' the 't-rerrientLms lesson s which the progress of that itevoltrion held forth to mankind, it should still 'be rankling in those bot.onts, which had once received the poison ?
