New-York, Feb. 23, 1774*
A Letter said to haue been written by M. de Voltaire,
lafl year, to the late Earl of Chefterfield.
YOU desire to have my thoughts on the present
date of Europe; I rather, now, expected you
would have asked my opinion about other matters
which I happened to be thinking of, when your lalt
letter was brought me by Mr. S. It tock two or
three of the firftyears, after the Paris,peace, before
the rulers of kingdoms and dates could think them
selves relieved, or at ease, from the inroads of the
wild beads of the sorest. Three years more were
taken up in making fences. The rest, even to this
day, has been employed in iharpening weapons.
One I fufpe& has laid a train of such a dangerous
nature, as must soon kindle into a flame, and set the
whole house on fire.---We shall not probably stay to
fee much of it.-- Your spot has puffed its meridian ;
luxury has taken root; the unexpected wealth got
from the poor of a distant country, by robbery, has
changed the bulwark of the English Constitution,
your House of Commons. The people who have
ruled your young K---, and the kingdom, n ver
were taught the right idea of what we used to define
liberty. Such blindlefs and obstinacy, or what is
worse, is doubtless permitted. Provifioris, which I
find by your public news papers are dearin England,
will not be lower till taxes on the industrious are
lessened, and that cannot happen till your national
debt is reduced. The rulers of Europe, lam afraid,
have it now in their power to prevent that event. If
I was one of the band, I could find the turn-pike
road.---In the midst of your nation's folly and blind
ness, I can lee a new world opening that will prove
an asylum for all your honest industrious people ;
and I think a few years will difeover the Island of
Britain to have, for its inhabitants, only two forts of
animals, tyrants and (laves.
