PROVINCIAL JOURNALS.

The following sound, just, and patriotic letter,
which contains a true deScription of the present Whig Oppo-
sition, and a brief Review of the causes of the recent Parlia-
mentary Procceding,s, appeared in The Hall Parket of Monday
last, and is well entitled to the attention of the People at
large.
" To HENRY THOMPSON, F.sq., Mayor of Hull, on the
line of policy applicable to the tnierg,:ncy of the present
eventful times. _ _

Sta—As a cool and impartial spectator of 'passing events
and politica! disputes, and of Course attached to no violent
party, I feel disposed to embrace the Liberty of the Press, in
expressing the following candid sentiments arising suit of the
Requisition intended to be addressed to you, requesting a
Nleeting of the Inhabitants to be called for the purpose of
petitioning his Majesty to disinias his present Ministers.
" It has been said, Sir, and well said,—it is no English
feeling to advocate, aIMOSI to intemperance, the Pause of a
female;—itis an English feeling to think warmly upon all
political questions, and to express the most determined oppo-
sition even to the stariLdance of opl,,,sion ;—hut it is Hot
English, in our advocacy of the weaker sex, to break down
the distinctions of virtue and v.ice, and to forego the reverence
for that modest discretion, which affords to women their
power and their grace;—it is not English, in 001 ~pposition
to real or imaginary grievances, to suffer our lihersy to dege-
nerate into lieent iousne.sta, and to permit the wish to correct to
degenerate Into the passion to dest soy, We fear that we have
seen a disposition in matt", (toasters to carry an advocacy of
the Queen into a dereliction of the peculiar worth and beauty
of the female cha'racter;.—we tear that we have traced a syste-
matic design to engraft upon the pOpular enthusiast-it for a
passing idol an adoption of foreign theories ;and foreign.prac-
tice in the commerce of the sexes, in the place of our own
safe, and honest, and happy .' houselsold laws.'
" It is an hottest English feeling to stand up for the rights
of the people, but it is not English in our advocacy of those
tights to 'trample 00 the prerogatives of the Crown and brave
arid insult the Sovereign. Stick to the Clown, though you
find tt hanging on a ho,li l' was the precept which a good
old Englishman gave to his sons, at a time when the Mo-
narchy was threatened with that subversion which it after-
wards experienced, and which was attended with the perpe
tration .of a deed that has fixed an indelible stain on the
:intuits of England''' Blessed he Gen, we are threatened
with no such danger at present ; but a-repetition of the pre-
cept can never be out of season, as long as there are trai-
tors in existence, and as long as there are men foolish enoneh
to listen to their insidious harangues The Crown is the
guardian of the Nation, lost more especially is its guardian-
ship necessary to those who are destitute of rank and wealth.
'l2be Ling gives the weakest and the poorest of us some con-
sequence; as his subjects, we are trpoo a level with the noble
and the rich ; in yielding hint obedience, veneration, and
love, neither obscurity nor penury can repress our desires,
nor lessen the pleasure that we feel in return. He is the
fountain of national honour, which like- the sun, is no re-
specter of- persons., but:smiles with equal warmth on the palace
and tbe cottage. In his justice, his. magnanimity, his piety;
-in the wisdom of his councils, in the sPlendour of his throue,
in the glory of his arias, iu all his virtues, and in all his hir

Which gave us birth, and which contains the ashes 01

" Arid yet, Sir, it is clear and obvious to the mearteir,
ptacity, that the late investigation into the conduct 4:01
Queen, (rashly provoked by her Majesty in spite of. gi
thing that could he done to avert so great an evil by Oct
vet nMent and Legislature) is now laid hold of by the
tors of this country to insult .the Sovereign, and effret.s„
volution. The men who pro Mote all the disturbance'' 3"

twenty Years have seized every pretext to involve theirs`o.
