pronOunced the -prisoner guilty.—He was sentenced to twelve

FOR THE, SUN.
MR. EDITOR-,—,/ have often adrnired:your Paper
for its zeal in favour of-theConstitUtionin Church
and State, and for the manliness with which it bas
occasionally condemned.several.measures
ministration, • Which Shewt that, -while you are
free from the spirit, of party, you are at.least re-
solved not to, be the tool of power. I have also
admired-you for being exempt from those .per-
, ry
tonalities which have too long disgraced both
parties, Illose contentions have interrupted, the
business of the .Country, and excited divisions
among the people. . With this opinion of 'the
temperate forbearance of your Paper; I was not
a little surprized at a paragraph .which it. con-
tained this day, in which you have brottiht• the
name of Mr. Bito'not.rAst, one of the most learned
and able Members of his honourable profession,
and one of the- chief ornaments of the British

genate, into compariSort with CARLiLE, Lime Most
blasphemons wretch that this or any country ever
prodticed. Surely, Mr. Editor, you suffered-your
zeal fin' Trig CHURCH to transport you too much
on this Occasion, and you cannot object to a few
words in reprobation of so unguarded a, corn-
parisor: Mr: BIiOtIGIAM'S abilities are so con-
spicumis in the eyes of the world at large, that
no eulogiuM tan be necessary froni an anonymoul
Correspondent, but it is 'well known that no
person in private life is More ready to
dolind offices, and. that none is more zealous
support the true• interest of the State, than
that Gentleman. But, on the occasion alluded
l •
to
~k :tounn.tm was employed in the exercise
of his profession, and it was surely his duty to
exert himself to the utmost in support of • his
Client. Can it be said that the Members of-the
,Church are sufficiently active themselves in op 7
posing such miscreants as C.IRLILE, and in en-
deavouring to counteract the poison which. he and
others of the sarne'diabolical gang are constantlf
pouring upon the •pubric ? Mr. BRouall.tm

which are W'Ortfij- of the attention of all tO whom
'EcclesiastiCal Concerns are entrusted thtenghout
