• The question was, however, loudly called for, and
the alfjourninent being put to the vote, was negatived.

original question, when, out of 104 Members who

PRIVATE LETTER.

" PARIS, FEBRUARY 27.
fi The form of the French Government is to
Representative; but in all its agents, reiati,ms,
conduct, and ananner of proceeding, we di,cover
that the representative form is merely a graft on the
parent stock of despotism; and that each se:ll,l,d,
its peculiar shoots, forming a very singular con r;_4
and-at the same time a very painful one, to tne.ret
of Constitutional liberty; for it is found, ca
nation, that the shoots flora the ,graft are iilwari
sickly when they are in the vicinity of the frant:le
parent stock—they cannot, in fact, respite eat szle
air, and the graft withers and dies t the one po 1,2 r
lords it over the spot the other was Oestir.ed
cupy.—But to drop the metaphor, the Charter j 4
been in exigence five years nearly, and it is.
' such a lapse of time, discovered that it has bec-a
lated in every point ; that individlial liberv; n.::!;t:a
totally insecure ; that a citizen might be ariet.:,:i.“N
imprisoned illegally, detained months ;..11
years illegally, without being brought to ti ::11, %eta
liberty without trial, and, finally, left without I
medy!! But you will say, surely the Laisc.
who have thus violated the Ki No's Charter a:nl t:-.;
Constitution of the realm, are to be brought to ja.
Lice? Oh, no; they are quit for a -lercricilic flan
the Minister of Justice, who orders them not to act
illegally in future; and this is all the linisler
due to suffering humanity.'
