FOR THE SUN.

REFORM.
MR. SUN—Your Correspondent, THE ItEroit-
MER., of yesterday must be a very IN-attentive
and careless reader of your excellent Paper, or
he would not have laid himself open to this obJ
nervation, by saying that " your Correspondents
who cry out for Reform without thinking it ne-
cessary to tell _us what they would have." Now,
Sir, 1 must be candid and say, that the Writers
in your Paper who have advocated what LIE calls
Reform, but which, myself and others call a cor-
rection of abuses in the practice of Parliament,
and in the Government of the State, have con-
stantly pointed out, the precise Reform they-
wish for—they wish for no innovation in, or alte-
ration of the Constitution of Parliament—they
merely wish to see it in practice NOW, what it
was 44 in, the better days" of this Country—they
wish to see that done, which all the Constitu-
tional Lawyers and Statesmen have declared
ought to be done, not only for the honour and
purity of Parliament, but for the good of the
Nation, namely, the practice of Elections uniform
in all places, and all the close Boroughs thrown
open to the people residing within them. They
wish to see men of ability, enlarged minds, and
liberal sentiments, managing the concerns of the
Country, boldly upholding and maintaining the
Protestant Succession, the just prerogative of the
Crown, and unalienable and free rights of the
People.

They wish to see a judicious economy, not a
ruinous or mischievous paisimouy adopted hi
all the Public Departments. They wish to'see
the Agricultural Interest protected from a ruin-
ous and impolitic competitiop , with Foreign
Growers, and the present Corn. System put on a
better footing. They wish to see the Manufac-
turing, Trading, and Shipping Interests protected
and encouraged, without a sacrifice of the Mari-
time Principles of the'Country to the new fangled
notions and speculative and interested views of
the Mercantile Interest.

These are the• great objects of the Advocates
of Reform, who write in your loyal
.and inde-
pendent Paper. They justly reprobated all at-
tempts at innovation on the sacred fabric of the
Constitution—they will oppose with all their
might Universal Suffrage and Annual Parlia-
ments—but whilst they will uphold the Laws
and the Magistracy of the Country, they call
on the King's Government seriously to look on
and consider " the Signs of the Times," and to
do those things which are necessary to save the
State—protect the People—and, which will add
an immortality to their Administration--whic!
will manifest to after times—bow truly they de
-served the love and gratittide of their 'Conn
trymet).
