tifice to effelt this purpose, by advertising himself
as a Candidate, and when the moment of trial ar-
rived, advertising again that he declined the honour

ties of the situation. Pao, who. in his own lan-
guage, was to trim the ever-burning lamp of liberty

Roman vestal, had he neglefted his duty ; bat it
now appears, that he is too much engaged in
trimming the lamp at Botlay, at which he pens
his attacks upon the Royal Family, to attend
to the lamp of liberty in Westminster. From the
consummate effrontery of the man, we did 'aped
that he would have made some attempt, in his
Number of Saturday, to extricate himself from the
dilemma in which we had placed him: his silence
proves that his condo& admitted no defence or pal-
liation. He stands completely unmasked. It was,
therefore, with great setisfa&ion, we saw some of the

man's malice, and retail his libels, turn upon him
yesterday, and treat him with merited contempt.—
