To preerve our Liberties we took CT
Chares's head. After iscond trial OF IN
fame Royal Family, in defence OF our rell
piop. we were forced to banilh them iron
what they thought their inherent right c
government. A ltsange combination OF cir
cumfiances threw US afterwards under tn
8 fubieaion of Dnitbm0n. William aie
made fome few attempts to enflaye US; but
though he had courage, penetration, and a
much genius as generally fall to the ihsre o
an Hollander, he could not accompilih n'
purpoies.
we may remember him, however, ane
hank him for theie memorable IaSouI'
.hich he cid to this great Empire. de laIt
,e foundation of Our national debt, he iut'
led himlelf and his Parliament to De Did
ID by the Eaf India Company, and he
palmed upon US a race of foreigners as oul
hereditary Sovereigns. By the hFit he la'e
the foundations of our miiery, and the iou'ce
of our corruption; by the iecOnd he LAID

a brave people.
You are bead Of The Cbureb in the moi'

fee can be given away without your royal
will and pleafure. You have the entire
command of the army in your hands; tor

Chancellor is a F---l, though ne, a few

We have often found men change their
reed outwaIdIy, but never an inttance OF
.ncere attention to what they have been
Fought up to an averlion of. Lord Dun
! ar was fincere friend of the Pretender's ;
ut Mansfield can never be 70 to your fami'
J.. Yet YOU and he are united by princi-
lie in many particulars. B0tb want to de.
troy the Ebirys fir Pres. Bad men mutt
ever have that object in view For Whit the
in,ereli of the people may be plainly laid
before them, tyrants muR uemble. Even
the lanSfion of corrupt Parliament cannot
lecure them from that Puniihment which
ihould ever await on him that dares TO think
that Britons will be ilaves.
Your Msjeily was 70 feniible that,gfnfTaI-
~, liberty depended 70 much on that OF .bs
Pref that it was your fra care to fupftets
il. You knew that you could not withli afeO
~ become tyrant, Whit the people csalf
be freely informed of their danger. Your
reign, therefore, commenced with the prefecu-
ton of the pious, honeif, well-meaning Mr..
Aanet. Under the maik ofreligion, in that
inf lnce, you drew an unwary jury alice
from their duty 70 far as to convict him, and
afterwards the favage difpofition of Mans
fed was fatiated, in The execution of mott
barbarous fentence.
Your next attack on the liberty 81 the Pr.G
was not altogether 70 fucceisfuI. Although
it was directed agaInit 70 bad a man as
Wilkes, yetthe nation would not allow even
wretch like him to fall victim when he
was iuffering in fuch aglSrisHs eanE. Yet
