FOR. THE SUN.

MR. EDITOR—The times we live in are
pregnant with strange matter—ominous in the
highest degree, and cherishing all sorts of innova-
_

ion, encouraging Bubble Schemes and most de•

Ausive doctrines ; this is not confined to the few,
but found in the many, in the learned and the
unlearned, in Radical Schools and Universities.
It'has alike infected those who professed them-
selves Whigs and those who professed themselves
Tories. Even the terms by which superiors and
subordinates were known are no longer in use., they
are new varnished and new furbelowed—it is
given out that a more enlightened age has led to
this change—it is more certain that 'too much
pretence to it has thrown open the floodgate and
caused this innundation of all sorts of dangerous
conceits and novelties ; we hear of Scientific" and
Mechanic Institutes in every county town and
village, our labourers are excavators, navigators,
operators ; then comes superintendents, mecha-
nics, and citizens in shoals, followed by a deluge
of sentimental and puritanical preachers, some on
Theology and some without theology, pretenders
to humanity, conciliation, toleration, and emanci-
pation ; it matters little to them whether the sub-
ject is right or wrong so that the sound is fine,
nor whether in favour of blacks or whites, so that
the passions are appealed to. The abrogation of
nearly the .whole of the laws of our ancestors is
recommended, whether as regards cur internal or
external policy as totally at variance with every
sound principle ; they are condemned us the
barbarous and invidious relics of old times, they
must be new cast and varnished and smoothed so
as to conciliate all our enemies, they must be
carried into effect with the most liberal ideas and
on the most liberal principles, that is, in other
words, we are to forget our origin as Britons, to
become cosmopolites, to mould our minds to a
perfect equality of rights and to a perfect freedom
of trade, regardless of the' consequences. This
is no exaggerated colouring of the hyperbolical
and hypercritical cant and rant that constitutes
the extraordinary novelties which have been so
extensively promulgated, the chimera of delusion.
We daily hear and see, alike dangerous to and
misleading all classes of society, a sort of demo-
cratic dance which if not checked will lead to
revolution. The national moral is affected—this
it is that makes liberty one of the first blessings
when misunderstood, misapplied, or perverted,
become one of the greatest curses that can befal
mankind—true, there has been most extraordi-
nary novelties promulgated, true it is, that
sophists and economists have commenced a career
of delusion to use one of their phrases, reckless
of the consequences ; and the multitudes willing
to believe themselves wiser, if not better than
their forefathers, have joined in the delusion ;
therefore, we find liberality and conciliation in
the mouths of those who have neither liberality
nor conciliation ; neither have they inquired to
what extent the liberal philosophers intend carry-
ing conciliation, toleration,• and emancipation;
neither have they inquired whether freedom of
trade (if at all practicable) will be found bene-
ficial ; this is left as a chance •expedient, and
therefore requires a solemn pause, as a people
who have morals and laws that they highly re-
spect, cannot be too much on their guard against
the specious and dogmatical maxims of philoso-
phers, which liy teaching them to despise the
laws of their country, lead to a general and in-
evita,hle corruption of manners. 114:left°, it has
been the uniform policy to regard the Laws and
Institutions of our forefathers as an inheritance
to be transmitted to posterity, cautiously guard-
ing against precipitate innovation or reforms, but
without excluding necessary improvements, yet
jealously watching any alteration in those laws
which secured so many benefits. In reverence
to them, we ought not to waste nor destroy such
an inheritance, they are gifts of a paternal atten-
tion handed down to us uniform and entire. We
are are told, that we are arrived at a more en-
lightened era, (it may be a brazen age) the
sophists and economists of France at the com-
mencement of their Revolution, sounded as loud,
a trump, they boasted of liberty and equality,
and promised as great benefits to that nation from
their plans of Reform, and perhaps they were
not inferior in erudition, philosophy, political
