A up6n Sir G. Saville's motion, was
an a& referred for the effrontery of the
present ministry; as upoh many occaGons
formely, and in particular in Sir Robert
Walpole's time, thh lift was granted, tho"
the friends of government, upon a sub
sequent motion, were protected.—-But
even forms of candour are not preserved
now, and the bare dictum of a minifier
who will rife up. in bis p ace, and fay such
and such official papers are not fit to be
produced; isa fufficient argument for his
friends to abide by.,
„ The late har'd fbugnt battle in the
Houfe.of Commons; when the Minifler,

vers of bribes and douttuh, 'dependents
and runners—several of them waited on
the Minifler ^n'd afl<ed him, if the only
patriot in the kingdom was flam^h, or ^
dunghil ?---Firm as a rock, cried Boreas :
No, no; he is no dunghill, he will die
