PROVINCIAL JOURNALS.

( From the Liverpool Courier, Nov. 10.) .
SLitti.—Ferdittuntl [sin the hands of the worst
of advisers. This has been long evident to the world ibut, If
any doubt remained, it would be removed by a sanguinary de-
cree which he has been advised to Issue, under the influence
of his monkish counsellors, the lords of the ascendant with
him. The only.rule which two classes of' men seem to think
possible—the only pole-star of policy, is that of grinding and
sanguinary despotism. These are the bigots of papistry, when '
in power, and the radicals and revolutionists of our own
and other countries. We see how delightfully they assi-
milate in Great Britain, when both happen to be in a mi-
nority, and both are aiming at the violent overturn of the
present system ; and when, by affording mutual help to
each other to create confusion, though each faction has
a peculiar object, they hope to advance their own in the scram.
ble, The papist is not more bitter against the orangetnan
than the radical ; and the latter advocates the claims to power
put in by the former with as much violence. Both are drawn
together by the mutual attraction of hatred to all our existing
institutions, and mutually compliment, and toast, and support
each other. The association is in truth, odd enough. The ad-
vocate of all liberty and the enemy of all liberty; the tree.
thinking radical and the no-thinking papist ; the scoffer at all
religion, the prostrate adorer of all superstition. The readiness
of popery to join itself to restless political faction is, in this
country, however, no new case. The reason is, that both are
out of power, and that attained, the union would be at once
snapt, and iey would go off in opposite directions in their
political career. In power, however, both agree as to the man-
ner of administration, however different at end. Both are
equal enemies to liberty. The monks of Spain and the Jacobins
of France agree in this, that their own liberty was all that the
latter ever meant, and all that the former will now allow. Both
adopt sanguinary measures with the most diabolical coolness,
and, whether by a mockery of the forms of justice or by mas-
sacres, are always prepared to put down opposition. The Sep-
tembrizers of trance and the assassins of St. Bartholoniew,
the' judges of the revolutionary tribunals and those of St. Do-
minic, are only different species of' the same genus ; and, whe-
ther found in Spain, France, England, or Ireland, know no
other art of ruling, and, from their very principles and passions,
cannot practise any other if they did. We have seen the prin-
ciple which assimilates them out of power; and their agreeing
practice in power has its common principle also. In both cases
it springs front the ambition of one cunning faction to trample
down and make a prey of the rest, and from the consciousness
that the mummeries and pillagings of popery in one, and the
tricks and spoliutions of demagogues in the other, must ever
meet with resistance from the common sense and common in-
terests of mankind.
