To Ike COMMITTEE Vale SONS V
"GINTLEIIIF.N—In the midst of my indignant
surprise atthe liberties. which, on a late public OCCII•
*Mu. had hems taken with my name, l received a
very intelligible hint, front a high quarter, that my
voluntary resignation of the Secretary-ship to your
Charity, would be an act, decorous in itself, and
possibly beneticial to the itistitidiou.
Sly reply was short and simple; and it was tins:
• Thst as I was nut aware at sny delinquency or in, part,
edgier actual Of intentional, I wuul.l nut se. accessary to suy
own dishonour, or skulk meanly Crow as ostensible sitiortina,

" 1 wish it, therefore, to be distinctly and gene-
rally understood, that in consequence of au autho-
ritative mandate, and of that only, I have thus day
placed your Seal in the hands of my warm-hearted
and iitislisken friend, your I est worthy Treasurer.
" lu tillleS like these, when every wise man would
covet and court retirement, it is in itself a matter of
rebel rather than of regret, that I am no longer to he
called by the duties of a laborious and expeusiVe Of-
from a home most dear to tne. The conviction
of my I, that my sealoits exertions were in no
small tlegren advantageous to your Charity. was the
Duly enissideration that could have made nie wish
continue in the exercise of those duties. tam uow
completely absolved from them. But Ido never-,
theless protest, before God and you, against the
• armed doctrine,' against the uujust and tyrannous
principle tin which I out dismissed from your service
—a principle, by ;he application of vi hich to snore
important eases, on Englishman would cease to be
the guardian of,tisowu honour and character; and
be couteistell to hold his reputation, his liberty,
perlinies his file, at the mercy of friends or enemies,
witimut any act or participation of his own.
