S()LEM QUIS DICIRE FALSUM AUDEAT ?

LONDON.

MONDAY, APRIL 23, 1810.

We received this morning Portuguese Papers to
tl.e 7th inst. The reports continue to be highly
fat o,.rable, but we must make allmiance for a little
oingeration. The British army is. in high health
and spii its ; but we believe the reports which have
been ir6ulated, that Lord WELLINGTON intended to
advance beyond the frontiers of Portugal, are ut-
foundcd.

Our readers will find in another part of the Paper
Sir FRANCIS BURDETT'S Letter to the Eleaors of
Westminster. We are glad that he has published
this Letter, because it is right that the people of
England should know What are the real obje&s of
this grand Reformer, and it is tight that his follow-
ers should know to what extent they pledge them-
selves to go, by enlisting under his banners. It is
true that Sir FRANCIS advises the people-always to
have the Law and the Constitution in view, but he
assumes to himself the right of determining what is
the Constitution which they are bound to support,
, and which are the Laws which it is their duty to
obey. With respeel to the Constitution, the Bs:0-
net says, " it is formed by common Law, and the
Wise provisions of the ancient Statutes." We should
be glad if either- he or some of his friends weuld
inform us exactly what he means by ancient Eta-
tutet, Does he mean Statutes that are °he; two;
three, or four centuries old? It is necessary that
we should have a specific answer upon this subjea,
because otherwise we cannot know what the Con-
tailotion is. Unless he will condescend to inform
tts which of the Statutes come under his definition
df ancient, find which do not, AVQ, of course, mist
remain in utter ignorance of what does or does not
cOnst.tute a part of our Constitution. But! Sir
FR/LEWIS has not only assumed to 1 imse!f tie rigl
of determining which of the Statutes are to be
onsiderta as forming a part of the Constitution,
but he- I.as also gone the length of asserting that
Ads of -Parlilment, unless passed in the mode pre-
Scribed by him, are not entitled to obedience, at
-10 st tint to Willing obedience. Ills argument stands
thus :—He says, " Laws, to be entitled to respeEt
and willing obedience, must be pure—must come
from a pure source---that is from common consent,
and through an uncorrupt channel, that iS an House
of Commons freely eleEted by the people."

. .
Then he contend that the present House of Corn-
trims is not freely ele6ted by the People. The conclu-
sion th n is obvious. it is worthy of notice, that
in ,speaking of Laws entitled to respect and
Willing obedience, he says nothing of the share
which ibe KING and the Lords have in making
them. Whether this othissiOn proceeds from acci-
dent or des,gn, it is impoSsible for ;Bib deie•niine.
We ctnnbt close this article without adverting to
the very contethptuous manner in which Sir FRAN-
CIS speaks of the Opposition. While they aro speak-
;no: for him; voting for him, and toasting him, he
prOciaiming them as one of the Most contentpti-
bl that ever disgraced this or any other
C uutry. The contempt of Sir FRANCIS for the
seems to increase in proportion to their ser.
towards ; the mote they court him the
more sturdily does he reject their advances:
