FOR THE SUN. 1, Mn. ,your Paper of Saturday , last, you have freely - declared your political sen timents, which, in my opinion, are those of an . honest Englishman, and if you will only take care to conduct it upon the principles which you have professedy you will deserve the gratitude and encouragement of a large portion of the commu nity, who are now become thoroughly disgusted ,with the misrepresentations of facts contained in many of the Journals, hourly producing incalcu lable mischief, and who are anxious for the promul gation of truth, and a calm and temperate discus sion of all subjects of importance as becomes ho nest Men and Christians. Yon have also wisely suggested to those whom it may concern, the propriety of watching the " signs of the times," and of endeavouring to con ciliate the virtuous part of the Nation by a Go vernment strictly and uniformly conducted upon honest principles, and willing to derive its sup port only from the influence, zeal, and affections of such persons, whatever may be their rank, and condition of life. I trust you will give admission to these few lines in your Paper, and I am, with respect, your humble Servant, AN ENGLISHMAN. July 24, 1820. *,* We readily insert the foregoing Letter, not because of the commendatory terms in which the Writer mentions our Paper, but because we feel that he does us no more than justice.We beg leave to observe, however, that we have manifested our principles, by invariable consistency of con duct, not merely by our declaration on Saturday last. This is the age of professions and quackery, and if the Public are deluded, we must let them be so, conscious, however, that THE SUN deserves the protection of the Country more than any Public Journal extant, if firm consistency, and an unalterable attachment to our Establishment in Church and State can entitle it to such a dis tinction, and while it is in the hands of the pre sent Proprietor it never shall change its cha racter.
