lected that we have riot yet got these Chnrchmen
doWn, we irate not yet redteeed them to a state of
nonentity, we hAVe not yet been able to open the
door to the Roundheads, nor swept them away
with the beSont of destruetion, as our weeping
and winning friend over the• bridge, who like
Judas is ready 16 betray his own into our bands,
proclaims to be .our duty ! This rentaiiis to be
done—but till it is done, Pstsims Ate men, and
men will talk in a black coat as well as in a jacket
and apron ; will dream ut rights--even whilst we
ate seeking to overthrow them ! Indeed, upon
11;e whole, I cannot but think we bate got upon
slippery ground. tile may give the alarnt, in bur
over-zeal, too soon ! There is an awkward story
about seven Bishops who were sent to die ToWer
for meddling with politics. We are surrounded
by ene.rnies who may infer a parallel—and com-
pare the principles of tyranny with the thirst for
Reform. In short, there is no saying what may
be urged against us by men who have the audacity
to insist that Demagogues, from the beginning of
time, front Satan downwards, are the bastards of
anibition, that we, like our predecessors, care not
a rush light (pardon [be illustration) for the peo-
ple or their rights; that our sole object is to get
what we can, under these false pretences, and to
rise, it possible, front selling slops or buckram,
to title in our coaches, as Placemen, or Pen-
L.sioners, or any thing to lift us out of our native
mire ! Against such vile calumniators, (who,
between ourselves, must have been behind the
scenes to be so devilish knowing) it is prudent and
politic to guard. Pardon all.this gracious Repre-
seutation, of what JOHNNY WILKES, who knew
what he was about, called the nonsense of the
City, and keep this majoi ity, if such indeed it be,
compact and undivided against the expected disso-
lution. It would be hard, having so far matured
your schemes—to be thrown out at last for the
display of a little petulence or indiscretion. I
grieve, ou looking bark, to find that what I in-
tended as a panegyric, has,. from an accumulation
of petty objections, swelled into wbat might be
maliciously construed into a censure upon your
first essay, in the discharge of the new and int.!
portant functions you have taken upon you. It
strikes me, therefore, that all things considered,
and as few men are horn to shine with equal
brilliancy in two spheres at one and the same
time (1 might say three, and dub you Trisme-
gistos, including all your vocations) that it might,
I only throw out the suggestion, that it might he
adviseable for you to enter into a compromise, for
the sake of keeping all the parts of the machine
together, with our worthy and tried Patriot, Mr.
Wooler—the two Hunts, that is,, the new Edit).
