The BritiJb glories gone.
O leave vs not, while yet we know,
The gifts we to thy goodneis owe,
But o'er us dill preside:
What adverse legions need we fear,
Conscience our buckler, truth our spear,
And heav'n itfelfour guide.

POLITICAL DISQUISITIONS:
An Enquiry into Public Errors, De
fects and Abuses.
Illufirnted by, and eftablilhed upon Faffs and
Remarks, extra&eJ from a Variety of Au
thors, ancient and modern.
Calculated to draw the timely Attention of
Government and People, to a due Conside
ration of the Necessity and the Means of re
forming those Errors, Defers and Abuies ;
of redoring the Conftitutien, and saving the
State.
By J. BURG H, Gentleman;
Author of the Dignity of Human Nature, and
other Works.
The AMERICAN EDITOR
to his COUNTRYMEN.
IN this work, are freely and jilftly exhibited,
by the mod able politicians, and the great
est legislators of ancient and modern times ; the
errors and corruptions of those governments,
which always have, and for ever will, bring ru
in and dedruHion upon the liberties of mankind.
The inhabitants of Britain, whose organs of
fight are become so very dim, that their rulers
daily deceive them with the Shadow instead of
the substance ; are throughout the whole, held
up as woful and convincing meraentocs, how,
and by what means, the royal, ministerial, and
parliamentary managers, cajole, tempt, and
bribe the people to commit suicide on their
own liberties, and afterwards hang them in
chains of everlaftihg slavery, for the great crime
of believing place-men and pensioners, ever in
tended, or were capable of intending any good
to them or their country. Americans, behold
them ! There they are! mod Hfe&uaUy gib
beted ; and there they are likely to remain, al
moll unpitied. Because dear bought experience,
hath taught all thofewhofe faculties of feeling, as
well as of feeing, are not entirely extinguished;
that the immediate extirpation, and absolute an
nihilation of all exorbitant incomes, even of the
King, as well as those near him, is the only
probable, or possible way, to keep men virtuous
citizens, and to make the liberties of any coun
try perpetual.
For no man Should ever be admitted near the
helm of government, except those honed and
exalted beings, whose chief aquation of foul, a
rifeth from, and is continually pervaded with a
love of honour, liberty, and their country. The
felfifh part of the world, along with all those
who are confeious of possessing, either bad or
narrow fouls, will tell us, these are obsolete
words, that have no meaning. We shall leave
that tog future determination,after inferring and
averring, they may and ought, in plain English,
to mean a constant attention, and an invariable
attachment to the good of the whole commu
nity.
The perusal of the work at this important
period, will be attended with the mod Salutary
and certain advantages, if the inhabitants of
America will be so rational, as to a& wifely, in
taking warning from the folly of others, by per
mitting no ministerial extravagancies to enter
into their plan. They will then dart fair, for
laying a sure foundation that freedom Shall lad
for many generations ; and the great expence of
blood and treasure, which the present grand
conflict mud cost, will in Some measure be com
pensated for, by the goodness and permanancy
of the new eredion, which mud be conftruded,
if the infatuated minidry of Britain, continue
to persist in their ignominious attempt of making
FREEMEN—^SLAVES.
