FOR THE SUN.

MR. EDITOR—I am little conversant in ma-
thematics, and less in chemist' y. Your Corre-
spondent, Pnorosn't--,-do 1 spell his name rightly?
will excuse me, therefore, if our discussion, in my
hands at least, is purely political.

There is no charm in the epithets of Whig or of
Tory which can determine principle. • The ques-
tion simply is—the power of the Constitution, and
the place of that power. Were it of any importance
what I am, I could 'tell your Correspondent that I
am not so Toryish as to place the Supremacy of
the Constitution in the King; nor Whiggish
enough to place it in the People : but that my
constitutional opinions lead me to place k in the
Parliamentl which, together with the Peers, is
composed of both King anti People.
In asserting Supremacy to be in the King, your
Correspondent must have bad in his idea that ec-
clesiastical Supremacy which the King holds by
the.common law, and in right of which the Par-
liament declared him the Head of the Church.
That Supremacy, however, has no concern with
our argument. I trust that the King has a better
title To our " allegiance," than could be made
out for him under any claim of Temporal Supre-
macy. Such a term, so applied, is indeed a no-
velty.
The grand error of your Correspondent arises,
as I think, from his taking the act for the agent,
the things done by the-Constitution for the Con-
stitution itself. The term " Constitution" does
not mean any particular code of laws, such as
ember did exist -yesterday, do exist to-day, or
may exist to-morrow: ,but the power by which
those laws were made and can be altered.

That power is—the three estates of and in Parlia-
ment. The King, in his own person, heredi-
tarily ; the Lolds, in their own persons, here-
ditarily also, and creatively ; the People, by
their delegates, representatively.
But —tolls deny such a division as
" the power of tie People, of the Constitution,
and of the Law." Because the People are only
a part of the Constitution, and•the LAw is the
Constitution itselt. The first is referable to the
second, as pars pro tote : the second and the
third are convertible terms.

Assuredly, " without People, neither Con-
stitution nor LAVV would be %yawed." This po-
sition is naturally and numerically true; and in
such a sense the Constitution may be taken as
resulting from the People. 1 only protest against
the inference of a political effect from a natural
cause. By the way, your Correspondent him-
self impugns such an effect by attributing the
" Supremacy" to. the King. ,

Again—Tlie Constitution, he says, is " a
compact." It must then have had at least two
compacting parties. The People could not com-
pact with themselves. Will lie tell me that the
Constitution was settled by the People—(in Par-
liament, I mean, for out of Parliament I know
nothing of them beyond individual or particular
petitioning)—without any concurrence of King
or Peers ?—And, if he so tells me, will he not
shew its date ?—Can that date be of the Re-
volution, when we had Peers at least to join in
its settlement ?—Or of Magna Charta, when we
had both King anti Peers to concur in it ?
Surely, however, be does not call Magna Charts
" the act of the Penlc, sanctioned by the KiPg

Aiu if any constitutional restrant upon their
concurrent power is predicated by " the bounda-
ries of the Constitution," your Correspondent
must shot,' by what Law or compact, written or
unwritten,- the 'Consti;ntion has been disabled
from altering itsc-It

h is not pleasant to reprove so many errors.—
The Parliament is not " the People's Trustee,"
because the legal Estate of the:Parliament is not
in the People—because they'have but one third
part of it—because they have in that third part a
negative voice to forbid, and an affirmative voice
to permit, all its measures.—A trustee acts where
the Cestui que trust has no legal capacity ; not
Where he can and does act for himself.
Neither is the Constitution a " Deed of Trust,"
because each of its three parties are beneficially and
equally interested. It is rather a Deed of Joint-
tenancy; which, like all other such deeds, can be
altered at the concurrent will of the joint-tenants.
But I will not fall into the dangerous error of
illustrating the priucipies of any one part of phi-
losophy or science, by comparisons derived from
another. I withdraw my illustration.
As there is no positive law against either
Whiegism or Toryism, let its not bandy these
words against each other. The terms Resistance
and Non-resistance have bad their day of agita-
tion ; of much more than they would have had,
if the difference had been remembered between
resistance to what was not law, and non-resistance
to what was law. The observance of this distir►c-
tion would have saved some blood, much breath,
and more ink.—We shall be too wise, I hope, to
quadrate the Acts of James the Second without
the Parliament, and of George the Third with the
Parliament, upon the same scale. Nonresistance
to the one, and resistance to the other, would be
equally High '!'reason--a predicament for which
I have inherited my ancestor's disrelish.
Therefore I cannot admit the possibility of a
law being unconstitutional: Since nothing is law
but what is so made by the Parliament, and every
thing is law which is thereby made.
Otherwise, the King, or the Lords, or the Pen-
ple-.--no matter whit h—would be privileeed to re-
sist that very ordinance which had become a law
with their own previous consent, and could not have
become a law without it. Aloe!) security. and much
peace, would reside in such a privilege !
Otherwise, too, unless every man is to resist
upon his own opinion, a deliberation must be
held, out of Parliament, to determine whether
the new law is constitutional or nor. Thus, a
second deliberative body most he formed, &pent!.
it.g wholly for its own legality on the previous
illegality of the law which it is io discuss ; and
pronouncing its decision independently of the
Other two estates, and even of itself,. in Parlia•
ment. Thus, one illegal act must be done to
ascertain whether another act is legal.
And how are the general people to be convened ?
How are we to understand their will for such con-
vention ? Can individuals begin it, when
duals have no right to impogn a law ? And how
must this deliberative body be formed ? At whose
summons? For what 'duration ? By what au-
thority ? Shall it be composed of the aggregate
people ? Or of their delegates ?—Let (Estrus
answer.

I am weary of these multiplied difficulties.—
They beset the question at every tntn. They are
the ram caught by his horns in the thicket ; and
it is better to sacrifice them than to immolate
the Constitution.
The King might violate the Constitution—so
might the Lords--so might the People. To the
illegal act olany one of these, " Resistance is the
Law of the Land." But the act of them all cannot
be : because tlic Di-unity of the Act makes
it " the Law of the Laud." The Constitution
cannot violate itself. A law, and lesist:thce to
that law, cannot both be legal.
It, indeed, the King, the Lords, and the Com-
mons, had each one voice in the same himse,
wherein every question were to be deciJed by the
majority of two, the minor one tnie,ht by possi-
bility have some reason of complaint—even of re-
sistance. But when no measure can pass into a
law without the consent of each, in its several
place;-1 should have hoped, that a question of
doubt upon the constitutionality of their con-
current supremacy, much less of resistance to its
ordinances, :could not have arisen. I am ready,
however, for futther argument.
I am not so much in love with Theory as to
have troubled you, Sir, with this discussion, if I
did not purpose its practical application. Pre-
sently I shell direct it to the necessity of checking
our Ultra Reformers, and the perfect leyality of
ANY check whereunto the existing law is inadequate.

Ma. EDITOR4—The Letter I last sent you con-
sisted chiefly of facts and calculations, such as to
many readers would stern dry ; but necessary,
surely, to the principal object of these Letters.
That object is to spew, -that's collection so ex.
tensire, as to include in its circuit ten thousand
eight hundred places of application, could not
poisibly be carried on at a cheaper race than is
effected by means of Briefs; if we except only the
proportionably small sum taken off by lees, It is
a prodigious weapon to wield, in behalf of Chris-
tian charity, and it is astonisbin,: that it can he
exerted with so notch facility 1, would he
thimght no trifling applicati,t) coAl he
addressed, poiwedly hod i!er,:onally, to between
ten end eleven thousand individual? ; what is
that compared to as great a riiimi,er 4,1 places,
many of them containing thousands of indivi-
duals ?

An average of :ter; shillings, clear, upon each-
Briet, alumut►ts to no less tit II 1 080 pu'►rids; a
sum very often exceeding. the whole es!iurare of
damage to he repaired. IVhat lighter contrilm-
tion can possibly be imegined, to produce so large
an effect ?—li is demonstrable, tl►erefore, that if
Briefs could once be made etlicient, according to
their original intention, nothing, further could be
.vanted to supply all defici,,ocies, in the means at
present existing, for repairing, restoring, or en-
larging of our Sacred Edifices. The chief regu-
lation then wanted would be one, simple and easy
of contrivance, which should carry over the ex-
cess of every collection, beyond the estimate for
which it was made, to some general fund, appli-
cable to other places, which might require more
powerful assistance. So that, it a thousaud
pounds were collected for a place whose estimate
did not exceed six hundred, a power might exist
of applying the surplus four hundred where the
collection had fallen short of its purpose. Should
Briefs be liberally supported for any time, this
fund tvonld soon become large, and its application
to the cases which required it might be easily re-
gulated and apportioned, by certain rules.
If this feeling generally prevailed, 1 can easily
imagine, that every opulent parish w-ould feel it a
reproach to have so small a sum as five shillings .
returned upon a brief read to it ; and that many
respectable iudividtrala would 'rather give that
sum, or more, than stiffer such a stigma to rest
upon tl►e place of their ah.,:rc

Without, however, descending to such particu-
lars, it must be plain, I think, from wi.ar has
been said, that, in this ancient and established
mode of asking charity, e pot,sess an instrument
of too much power and efficacy. towards effcc-
mating the noblest of purposes, to hp. at all ne-
glected, much less relinquished. Some modifica-
tions and improvements it may I,erltaps easily
derive 'from Prnliamentary consideration, et hich
hope and trust will he bestowed upon ; but the
principle i,selt is too admirable uhandoned;
and the general plan such US COnin probanly
be surpassed by any contriva!-.cc of ii-mitn wis-
dom. To be able to app'y the small, :• nts, vo-
luntarily given, to a pia,,ose so noble and so
on-
Portant as that Of restoimg dilapidated places of
worship, and causing !he beauty of holiness to
shine forth in every edifi.'e set apart for pohlic
devotion, is sure:y a power of the most envi,ble
kind ; and ;inch as a nation, having once pos-
sesAed it, should not, on any account, permit to
tall into neglect, contempt, or disuse.

PHILADELPHUS.

INFAMOUS SoeNe.—Yes!erday afternoon, about
four o'clock, one of those occurrences whic:i Hre
alike a disgrace to human nature as to civiliza-
tion, took place in Smithfield. An ill-looking di-
minutive fellow, of appatendy low and profligate
habits,. entered the market, leading, by a halter
round her neck, his wile, and followed by a nu-
memos crowd of persons. The poor female, who
evinced sonic shame at this vile exposure, wall
muscular, Hs compared to her husband, and pos-
sessing an advanta4e of nearly t ,v() feet in height
beyond her dwaiti,,ll c"mpanion, her countenance
and manner betrayed evident signs of better SCHSe
soil decency. The wretch placed her near the
Ram Inn, and there, timid the disgust of some
and the laughter of others, put her op for public
lie for some time attempted to obtain a
bidding for his wife, until, at length, the sum
of 2s. 6d. being offered, the sale gradivills• in-
creased as high as 155. At this moment the troll-
itude had considerably increased, and tine noise,
disgust, and laughter excited drew to the spot
some of the City officers, who speedily terminated
the harharons scene, by seizing the wife, 'now ist-
ing the halter from about her neck, Hod conveying
tier away to a place of safety. What contriboted
to the atrocity of this shameful exhibition, was
the circumstance of a good-looking young wo-
UM, the,danghter of the wife, scanning, or rather
clinging to her !nuttier, during the shameful
spectacle. To render the thing still more atro-
cious, the parties, it seems, had been married 12
yeats! The monster et,vaped amidst dis•

Mr. T'ava.on, the PROPRIETOR of THE Sow
Th..ZEWPAPE 8, being desirous of lessening the La-
brstir and Solicitude attending tha Conduct of a
Daily Print, is willing to part with a portion of
it to any Gentlemen of Talents and ReSources,
whose Political Principles correspord with those
which the Paper has always supported, and who
wcrold be inclined to co•operate in Manage-
ment as well as Literary Composition. He would
rather at (owe dispose of the whole concerto, if
he did not venture to conceive that the steadiness
of his Political Character has excited the coofi-
dence of his Readers, and that his long experi-
eace may reasonably be supposed to attach some
credit' to his competency in the conduct of a
Public Journal. He conceives also, that in these
awttd and threatening times every Public Ilan
should remain at his post, in order to contribute,
to the utmost of his power, towards the delence
of our inestimable Constitution. Several In-
dividuals have of to purchase the Paper;
but as it was foooded limier the immediate sane,
non of the hate Mr. PITT, the Proprietor deems
it his duty to consider it as a Political Legacy
left by that Illustrious Statesman to his Country,
to maintain and perpetuate those Po iociplo a %violet]
ate most conducive to the security of the State
and the happiness of the People.* Bence the Ad-
mirers of that enlightened Minister and true Pa-
triot may think that a Paper instituted by him,
and for swell important objects, should he offered
to some public spirited Body, actuated by higher
considerations titan mere regard to pecuniary ad-
vantages, and animated by zeal for the general wel-
fare ; or at least to any other whose interests may
be essentially milted with the interest oft the Conn-
ti y. such Persons the Proprietor would most
willingly dispose of the entire concern ; and,
however anxious be may be for repose, after many
years of toil and solicitude, he would readily act
as their Agent so long as his superituendance
might be revired. It cannot be necessary to
dwell on the high reputation which 'l'ue SUN
has so long possessed, in consequence of the
undeviating consistency of its Political Character,
and the uniform ptopriety of its general Conduct.
To support a Government acting on the system
.Ir. PITT is the main priuciple by which the
Paper has been directed, and only by a firm ad-
herence 10 that system can it maintain its charac-
ter. It is obvious, however, that a steady attach-
ment to a System which comprehends the safety
of the Lonstitotion, %by no means implies a ser-
vile concurrence in the Measures of any fadnoini-
strution. Bat while THE SUN perseveres in the
same direct course, it may reasonably expect the
support of the present Government, on account of
it. Political Priocioles, and the revereuee cite to
the memory of its Illustrious Foundet, since an
indifference to the fate of such a Paper, on the
Fart of a PITT ADMINISTRATION, would be a sole-
cism, as well as a reproach:, which it is not likely
to incur. With not less confidence may the
Paper rely on the protection of the. PRO-
TPSTANT*CHURCH, HS it has so strenuously sop•
ported it that i 7 is supposed to be peculiarly
pa. Toni zed by IncCLERGY ; among whom
it certainly can boast of many valuable Cor-
respondents. indeed, as THE CLURGY must be
well codified, by abilities and knowledge, to in•
street the Community at large, and,- in these
times, should consider that they have duties
to fulfil as Citizens as well as Pastors, they
;night very properly possess themselves of a
Paper Which would not only enable them to
sloe ,d right principles in general, but also
to check those licentious and impious doctrines
which ate daringly inculcated with malignant
assiduity, and are manifestly intended to destroy
the Religion and the Government of the Coun-
try. The Proprietor may confidently expect the
Fort of the PITT' CLUBS throughoot•the'Britis

Female rights and privileges./ -
Look well at those Rights ! Look well at those
Privileges ! Do you wish them changed ? Does
Reform offer any thing to you, which you do not
already possess ? Do you only wish some lii‘i-
proceinetit in female rights—for you seem not
likely to partake in any of those which are now
claimed by male Reformers ? If you do, what is
it that modern Reform can do for you ?

home better tempered, after hearing it read and
argactl that his painful deprivatiou of the accus-
tomed stimulus arises, not from his own folly.
hot from the mismatiagement and oppression of
Government ?
On this subject, I shall refer von to two high
awlnities—ask Mrs. BLANDFoRD ! ask Mrs.
ViNce ! Surely, the lair companions of the Secre-
tary, and of the Chaiiman of Midolesex, must be
incontrovertible authority as, to the rights of the
Sex, whether in full force or obevance.
But you have contrived, my (tear 'Mrs. BULL,
I in this scent after Rights, to make A sad mistake
with regard to one of your most sact ed duties.
Vogt have promised to bring your children up in
a detestation and contempt for the present Go-
vernment. But are you aware of the toll purport
of that proutist: ? Are you ignorant that the word
" Government.'t amongst modern Reformers, is
not confined to Ministers alone, but embraces the
whole system of the Monarchy, without which
the Blittsh COOstitutioo coold on more stand up-
right, than a three-legged stool, when one leg
shall be cut otf ? But, if the Throne is shaken,
as in former days, what becomes of your throne
over the Empire of the heart ? 'Was your Sex
more elevated, or more esteemed in the days of
CaotawaLL, because the women of London chose
to carry up Petitions to the Romp Parliament ?
Were you not all, by the Puritatinical strictness of
that day, placed on the shelf along Stith the other
vanities of lite ; and at length indebted even to
the intriguing gallantry of the succeeding re go
for that Liberty which has enabled you for the
past hundred, years to found a domestic .F.rOpire,
which I trust, will never be rrmit fed to tall, tin-
der the influence either of fanatical Reform or
cold blooded Revolution ?

But, seriously what could you or yours, your
ImshanO, fathers, brothers, or sons, gain by a
dotvniall of the Government ? If you wish to have
security of property, you must have aotne species
of controlling power, and to whom could you
entrust that power ? Not to the Whigs, I believe;
for nobody now either knows or cares who, what,
or where they are ? To the Reformers ? What to
men who cannot yet agree amongst themselves—
to men, who, from the highest to the lowest,
Irons BURDETT to HUNT, have no idea in com-
mon, save that of downright Revolution !—to
men who would be too busy murdering and pion-
! tiering von and each other, to think of securing
either tights or property for any but themselves,?
But what would you share in all this ? I will
tell you a story, Mrs. BULL. A GI:WI-coon,
driving his wife in a gig it, the vicinity of Leeds,
carne up to a Reform- Meeting, consi,ting of
a dozen of strippling idle fellows lolling over a
gate. " Come out of the gig," stied the Chair-
man, " you have rode long enough: 'cis our turn
now 1" The
.Gentleman being armed, and not
far distant from some !souses,, ventured to stop to
make some enquiry into the proposed practice of
those new principles. ", But," said he, " there
are a dozen of yaw, and the gig will hold but
three." '' We sball take it turn about," replied
the Chairman. " But," asked the Gentleman,
" who shall take the first turn ?" "1,1, 1,1,"

ezelaimed the whole party at once. " And who
is to pay for keep of the horse ?" again de-

'minded the Gentleman--but to this there was no,
answer, Ut then asked " Who is to pay the
turnpikes I°' " We shall have no turnpikes," was
the reply. " Then who is to make the roads ?"
" ! the rich shall mend the roads." '' But
who is to pay them i" "To pay them ! why it
be their turn to woik now." " But the rich al-

always paid you for your work"—" Why, yes
because we should not have worked without it.'

" Then, how will you persuade the rich to work
if they are not paid ?" " Persuade ! why we'll
n►ake them work ! Wave they not oppressed us
by making us work late and early ? Do they not
live in fine houses when we starve in cottages
'Do they not ride in coaches, whilst we waik on
toot ? Do they not drest, fine every day, whilst we
are kept in rags ?_Do'they not drink Wine whilst

we drink bets? Do they not enjoy tile tat of the
whilit we are starving j'or want of work !"
