FOR THE SUN.

Mr, EDITOR—I have rear) Mr, FYSCIII6 PAL-
1111's Speech at the Reading Meeting,-and I
I'l(.e 't very much. Ile is a Radical to the hack-
b"net I like him the better, too, because he has
the good sense not to copy the weakness of his
he, poor man, loved his Sovereign, and
*4B esteemed by him :—things not to be thought
of among Reformers:without horror.

1311t---`and I say it with regret-Lthere is still one
thilig in Mt. FYscus PALMER, which I do not
'llo4ether approve. He complained, and very
j"tiy, and very pathetically, that the present
.'`kked Government had ground us all down to
The earth with taxes and pensions for the support
tof their vile tools. Now, in the extraordinary
l?ed Book, which Mr. HENRY HUNT (whom 1
hope to see one day Lord of this Country) always
carries in his pocket, and' reads to every one he
Meets, it is sated (p. 138.) that Lady MADRLINA
PALMER, wife of this Gentleman, receives a pen-
Con from this reprobate Government, of 2001.
a yeah; and it farther appears at p. 149, that this
lame Lady PALMER, under the name of MADBLINA
811‘cLAIR, receives another pension of 2001: reyear..
The Worthy author of this book declares, that he
Las carefully corrected it from the former edition,
so, that I presume, we .may trust to his atate-
otents. Now, Sir, I would have Mr. FYSCHE
PALMER seriously consider if it be consistent with
his character as a Radical, to have his or his
t"rs name appear in the Red Book as a pensioner
that Government, whom we all hope to over-
it" It really detracts front the dignity or oily
pt Pose—for, as to what some of our people say,
that to accept pensions opirselves-is- so far a good

it for little I would rather recommend, the jud

Late. (says he) as one should say , ,one that tolees'!
'Von him to be a.dog, indeed, to be, as it were, a'

the place of dog, and the inconsisteneV, of Mr. F.
PaLsaaa's continct, will instaniJy be ailparent. lu
enuclusioa, 1 hope, that the next edition of the

Integrity
of the great and glor,ious cause of Radical
