CRAFTY TORYISM

To the Elitor of the Salocian Journal.

" Equidem iimeo Amaos et dona ferentes."—Vmd,

Mr, Editor,—That irreclaimable Tory, his Grace the "Duke of
Newcastle, has be-en practising some of his accustomed innova-
tions in this county. No..sooner had he completed his recent
purchase of the ilafod Estate, than; being informed that no
medical assistance or advice had been hitherto afforded to the
sick poor round his mansion, Cwmystwyth, nor indeed in acircie
of ten miles, and that the smallpox was very prevalent and fatal,
he immediately directed a very respectable medical gentleman,
from Aberystwith, to attend the poor iu that district twice a
week, at his grace's expense,. and that every person who was so
disposed should be vaccinated, and proper advice given, and
medicines dispensed to them from the same benevolent source,
and that this assistance should by no means be confined to his
grace's tenantry, but extended to all poor persons indiscrimi-
nately, and that two rooms should be fitted up, contiguous to
Hafod, for the convenience of the medical gentleman and his
patients. His grace also directed his steward to employ all the
poor labourers in draining and other improvements, at from
15d. to 18d. per diem.
Now, Mr. Editor, although this cunning Tory's beneficence
may appear to you, and to others of the unthinking world, all
mighty. well; and, indeed, I must acknowledge, it has already
alleviated much human misery, and will, provably, under Pro-
vidence, be, in a great measure, the means of arresting the
progress of that dreadful scourge, the small-pox; yet I must put
in my veto to all such pranks; and I must insist uon it, sir,
that you very Seriously require of his grace au explanation of
his conduct, and how he has presumed to introduce into thii
Whig neighbourhood a practice so diametrically opposite to
every system of Whig policy, and such a daring innovation on
the principles of real, immaculate Whiggery, in (..lardiganshire
This dangerous precedent ought to stimulate every real Whig
to assist, heart and hand," in putting down all such attempts
to conciliate the "prefanum vulg.us."
If this, sir, cannot be conveniently done before the next ses-
sion of Parliament, I propose that this Lycurgus of G—, and
Solon of N—, be requested, jointly, to bring in a bill, as
early as possible, to restrain all such Tory innovations, and
that, if their usually persuasive eloquence should fail in convin-
cing the "reformed house" of the imperative necessity of such
a measure, that John Gully, Esq.; 1V1.P., may be requested' to
join his science to the logic of his co-legislators to put down these
Tory absurdities with a strong hand; and surely, sir, this mighty
phalanx must prove invincible. If something of this kind be
not done, believe me, sir, that many of our Whig electors will,
through folly or ignorance, be absurd enough to make awkward
and unnecessary comparisons, and, perhaps, not quite so advan-
tageous to the Christian charity of pure Whiggism as might be
wished by, sir, your most obedient servant,
A SUCKING WHIG.
Aberystwith, 7th Dec., 1833.
