eonsider that, at last4ll the consumer who must
pay the whole, and that it is the Englids labourer, new
reduced in his wages from the decline of trade and the
weight of tuition, that will be required to defray the
proposed exaction. The weight of taxation, owing to
the national expenses and the interest of the nationaldebt, 1
these country gentlemen keep as much as possib'e out of '
sight. Oh, said the Noble Chairman, though the national
debt be an evil, no person can say it is a national loss I
it was only the means of transferring the property of
one class to the pocket of another. If this be no grievance,
then farmers can have no occasion to complain;
for what is loss to any of them must be gain to some-
body else. It is no wonder that these gentlemen suc-
ceed so indifferently with all their agricultural asso-
ciations, when guided by so little sagacity.
The Meeting of the Irish Gentlemen tended to ex-
pose the system of misrule under which their unhappy
country has for ages suffered; but beyond that point
was productive of no beneficial result. This day, hap-
pily. the Irish papers bring no fresh accounts of outrages
No French papers had arrived when our paper went
to press; nor has any fresh light been thrown upon
the dispute between the Chamber of Deputies and th e
King, further than that received at the Stock Exchange•

This is to time for shuffling ; every independent
Journal should speak out; delusion is a crime, which,
we trust, will never be charged upon us. The present
Ministers have shewn so much incapacity in a variety

of ways, that we do not consider them adequate to ma-
nage the business of a Parish Vestry. The more ne
inspect their misrule, the more satisfied we become of
their ignorance or wickedness ; and were there a proof

wanted of this, the FRENCH EXPOSE on the state
of that country must convince us that their measures
have been every thing but what they should have
been. Prance preAents a picture of prosperity, not-
withstanding the exactions of the Unholy Alliance,
and the feuds caused by the accursed Ultras, and all
the enemies of liberty. The industry, activity, and
good sense of the French people, have instructed their
Government to follow up that economy which must
prove the support of all state machines. AMERICA,
as well as Prance, has given us lessons for many %ear;
but these were not sufficient to controul weakness,
wickedness, and palpable imbecility. We have seen a
tottering Exchequer supported by ways and means
which would have disgraced the character of a com-
mercial individual we have seen loans effected to pay

the interest of loans, and a compound interest heaped .
upon the debt of the country ; we have seen ten thou- '
sand a year voted to one for performing the duties re-
quired by nature ; and we have seen a Civil List suf-
ficient to maintain all the Princes in Europe in splen-
dour. "hi!? at the same time oar trade and commerce

6sztottA state of BAxamazej, and the, WORE-
HOMAN etowded with Pauper*. We have also seen
a part of the army bedizened with fringe, tinsel, and
lace, and the expenses of the household troops alone
sufficient to support the whole of a necessary military
establishment. Yet, under this system of profligacy,
we have heard of Ministerial economy ! From such,
0 Lord, deliver us !!! Every thing will have an end,
so will this hopeful system of economy, in the want of
means to support it. Parliament must, however, come
to the point; Ministers may raise paper supplies ; they
may raise the wind even to a hurricane ; but the
stronger it blows the sooner it must cease. They
may swell their majorities, and bold out promise and
promotion ; 'tis all in vain ; these majorities must re-
ceive THEIR RENTS, or they'll Rat. If they
' should, a kick-nut will follow. Who then will take
their places? Sboold the Whigs he mad enough to
sumd them, unless they make Reform in the House
of Commons a sine qua non, they will neither obtain
confidence nor protract the final ii.sue. But to think
of continuing things in their present shape is as dif-
ficult and as foolish as to attach wisdom to the parties
who caused all the mischief.
