MEN OF LETTERS.

MR. EDITOR-It is an old, though homely
saying, that 46 when rogues fall out honest men
come by their own ! " In like manner, but cer-
tainly without any roguish allusion, I may say
that when WHIGS differ, then MINISTERS may
expect to find justice done to them. Never in-
deed has this been more clearly proved than in
the Two LETTERS which occupy great part of
the fourth page of your Paper (Aug. 15th,)
written, yet evidently not in unison nor in con-
cert, by two leading instruments of the Whig
band ! 44 Organs" I think they talk of, though
some who have no taste for those discords in
sharps and flats, may perhaps rather think of
penny whistles and twopenny trumpets to be
picked up at the old Wig Shops of Long-lane
or Rag Fair.
The first in position, though not in absolute
chronology, is from a young Lord to an old
Saint, in reference to a former between the same
personages, some parts of which his Lordship
candidly acknowledges, " are not clearly stated
from the haste with which I wrote it." So then,
Mr. Editor, the British public, for it was to them
rather than to Mr. Wilberforce, that Letter was
addressed, the British public are to form opinions,
a y e and to act upon those opinions—upon this sym-
phony to the Grand Concerto, although so has-
tily composed, that some of his Lordship's crot-
chets were placed perhaps as notes of anticipa-
tion, when they really were the key note to his
wishes, or else mere slurs to fill up what otherwise
would have been bar rests for his second fiddle !
But he" did not intend to write as the organ of
the Whig party!" No indeed ; that party have
been
grinding their organ, and dancing their pup-
pets, with Madame Catherinabesides,.at so many
fairs, Hackney, Brentford, Hammersmith, Black-
heath, &c. &c. that a regular showman would
be almost ashamed to dance his dogs to their
music !
But his Lordship, if not the organ itself, may
be a stop in that organ—a Fifteenth, if not a
Principal, or perhaps, in these days of exquisite
taste, a Dulciana That indeed is a stop of
little " Power," but I even doubt whether the
other stops of the Whig instrument have got
either more power or " Influence." Moral influ-
ence is indeed talked of ! The Whig School of
morality'! !
But Sir, whether organ or not, can Lord John
Russel ever accuse the Ministers aparamount or
corrupt influence in the Houses of Peers or
Commons, after that it is acknowledged to be
" impossible for any one who has attended to the
political history of England, for the last five.
years "his Lordship's political lustrum " not to see
that both influence and power have resided, not
with Lord Liverpool or Lord Castlereagh, but with
a body of Gentlemen in the House of Commons
