country will perfectly understand that our approbation pr

Leeds not from any sudden coincidence of our ()Onions with
those of Ministers, but from the unexpected adaptation of
their speech to the general sentiments•of the nation. So far,
therefore, this document is it reproachable. And we entreat
the public—that is, the noble and magnatiimisus past of .tbe
British public7-to consider of what rise their meetiogs h lye
been, when they now find the tone of Miniiteis altered, so as
to suit the spirit of those Addresses Which were originally
thotight to be !host offensive. to their iiews.• As the moon

it will always be when the people are firm, resolute, candid,.
and open. As to " the blasphemous writings,"" " lieentions

" all governments," Sce. &c.—expressions so -often • bandied
among the misdirected and officious adherents of Govern-
ment—where are they in the Speech ? Ministers malse no
mention of them. They hare left their dirty sycophants in
the lurch, and come over, so far as their talefits allow them,
to a rational and sane nihnner of addressing Parliament.—,

alluded to in guarded terms; but should they disturb the
tranquillity in that quarter, we are assured that it is his Ma-
