knovledged organ Of the Anti Reformlsis, gives, at
the close of an article against the Reform Bill, the

ton similar TO that Of III. Neckur When the ma
joriiy of Louis the Sixteenths Council refused TO
enlarge the three Estates the Minister sought asss-
lance from without, and called together that formid
able phalanx which, in it's anger, overthrow every
thing, and which, going for beyond his contemplated
reform, made real revolution by resting the ply
steal power ofthe people Phe course Of the English
Ministry IS plain:-t will dissolve Parliament-the
elections will be tunntuous-the effects will be vio-
lent-a revolution will i'll all probability follow. the
first result Of which will be to snatch the rens of
government out Of the hands of those who commenced

olutions will have their own leaders-they listen to
no othcrs-they place no confidence in others.

but one thing is certain, namely tina, the crisis is,
under all circums auces, awful one; and that EGG
