Among other causes of regret, fromfth;
long and painful Proceedings, respecting ;I'r I
QUEEN, we are sorry that they have. preveattr`
our recurrence to this department of our Par.;
of which we have always intended to rtmdcr I
a prominent feature. The work before us conic:,
• forward at a very seasonable period, when
tion, under_ pretence of a wise Reform i 5
dieloyolty and irreligion
over the Country, and finally to accomplish
demolition of our present 'system of Goverurne'l';
The Opposition Prints, as they were heretofor"
styled may now be considered as die sedilit'lls
.
.and treasonable enemies of 'Monarchy Itst
Professing as we do to be resolute champions r,
the Altar and the Throne, we deem it our (I'l
to direct our attention to whatever may tend I-
.
their security. Our present Monarch, during
(i
glorious Regency, effected the deliverance ci
Europe, and no doubt his reign will be rendcre.o
not less glorious in securing the happinesaof
people, if he is not opposed by desperate, ate. 6
fleas, and factious spirits, who have nothing /
view but their own advancement to the (oven!,
ment of the Country. We select the followil
appropriate passage from the work before nsll/1,4
shall take an early opportunity of resuming °
attention to it
The way to avert contention between such mighty r
as a King and his People, is for each to avoid whatcve!'
tend to strife; or (in the phrase of that Sovereign, who I'4
endued by Heaven with "an understanding heart trill
his people,") clot to meddle %sill) them that are given
change." tf is
Not that we are to shut the door to improvements, 00',,e•
inspire diligently that any projected changes be int;lNof
• meats, before we initiate them ; and that they he avid'
ie
the deliberative wisdom, and concurrence, of the whole
gislative power. This power must reside somewhere, in fvl:
civilized State; and in ours, no one heed be told where "lie
placed. The very nature of representative authority, i.°.,P,„fri
the power of making such initirovements, as may he
beneficial to the community ; and, in the rvyntatioot Of tits
and of the relative circumstances of Nations to one anot):,;
necessity for some change s'in alliances, arid laws, Ari",-}0
which (if made by the proper powers) leave to subjec"
other course tan accessio ad obedienc e.
But to seekh changes in thue nestablished maxims and f(°l',)iic
of good government, by clamorous. menacing, or I ornolto°;,
concourse, is to destroy the sagacity of deliberative wi9d°ll
is to seek
mcontention, and to do violence.
To frame " stcret bonds of association," under the O'lP
0
of petitions, to assemble tionultimos multitudes in arnor,6,
suock them with delusive boors, is to engage them by il°.'re
covenants, to conspire against. those " rulers who are.o.lo,
terror to good works, but to the e, il."—" Wilt thou not o •
afraid of the power ?—hut rather have praise of the st.We;)(
See that ye come out into their assembly, nor confide rif
Itanonr to their keeping. Nor herd at all with any, tvii°' to
sedition% speech, or he disloyal carriage, secretly desigtstf

not opewly avow their treasons.
By herding with traitors, you hazard the infeetior“-'O,
the easiest way to escape hot It the leprosy itself, and tiO

distance.
By listening to inSidions harangues, you may be cattgb,oo

well.disposed stay, length, he persnided,that sornech3lti'o,

With the imagination thus heated, the transition fo„ri'
loyal subject to an imaginary patriot, is •71H103t impercerd'
ble. With the vivid fancy this exalted, a flight to soll'eolt
