Were Chatham, Rockingham and Temple,
these illustrious corn-patriots, to look back from
their graves, and fee how much the duplicity of
one man has undone the glorious fabric they en
deavored to raise in behalf of their country ;
the fight would chill their generous bosoms with
anguish and horror. They would curse the day

It is a pity that the divine simplicity ofthe dove,
is facrificed to the cuhning of the serpent. And
that the fouleft hypocrily triumphs over the

When the Irish business was agitated in the
House of Peers, Lord Shelburne observed, that
it was the great and unanimous with of his Ma
jesty's ministers at that time to unite the whole
empire by making every part of it equally free
and independent, as then oii/y government could
poflefs the public confidence, when the public
regarded government without jealousy or suspi
cion. This semblance or affectation of genero
frty duped the IriSh and duped the English But
furelythe eyes pt both are now open to the true
deserts of this splendid deceiver. It was his fair
profellions that got him what he now enjoys.
He has forfeited his credit with his friends,' and
the public. And whoever is not bound by the
double ties of friendship and patriotism will be
bound by nothing on earth or heaven. “ Let
no foch man be truited !"
