OF this man. Who had he added consistency to his other
,a;t;es would have been by this time, the most powerful
an Of the country have much reason to complain
j. The friends of liberty; for he has managed rem
.ler his opposition and his support alike injurious to their
cause There is something else, will not turn aside to
discuss what to which he has always sacrificed that cause
and sore,ines at very critical moments. But good
service he has rendered. and must continue to RENDER
long as he continues to @riteand long that be. His
hrewd and manly intellect, his nexhanstbe stock of facts
upon all subjects of political economy his eternal fresh
ness for age cannot wither him, custom stale his in
finite variety; his clear, unaffected, vigorous English styles
and his bloodhound chase OF avorite topic, neither wear
ed by the length nor )ed by the ntrcacy of the pursuit
If they have not accomplished the glorious results at
which man so gifted should have aimed and of which
can scarcely believe he would have alcd have yet done
what was next be wishedhey have reused into action
the dormant sense OF the poorer classes, and provided
materials for thought and induced habits OF investigation,
that will correct all the evils that can be inflicted by all the

that have been the great enghtener of the people of
England" 1t impossible to avoid laughing at him, and
yeteeng at the same time IN our hearts, that the mpudent
fellow had some ground for his boast He has been a
greater enghtener than he intended, and has well
ruced thousands that ne cannot now lead them, nor obtain

We have just received the fifth number OF VIM.
CoBBETr's History Of the Protestant Reformation
in England and IreIand:' in the 154h section Of it,
we find the following passage.
The basest and most corrupt government, that
ever knew any thing heard any thing, of, is the
Republican government OF Pennsylvania and
with all the most tyrannical base and corrupt from
bottom to top from the root to the iopmost twig !;
from the runk to the point OF every branch.
And, if any PENNsYLvANfAN, who has name, and
who will pu. it to challenge to me to prore my
uords, will before the face OF all Europe prove
them in The most complete and ample manner. II
am not therefore for republican government; and
then it follows, that am for an aristocracy; for,
without it, there can be no limit to kingly govern
ment.''
VIVA, the above abuse Of this state has to do with
History OF the Reformation, would puzzle wiser
heads than ours We repubsh,it to convince our
readers, if any of them doubt the fact, that Goblet,
really hates this country and is in principle, so far
as he has any, confirmed " .aristocrat."
