bells on the court, exceeding in audacity aud
rancour any that had been published for
many years, now appeared daily both in prose
and verse. Wilkes, with lively insolcncc,
compared the mother of George the Third
to tic mother of Edward the Third, and the
Scotch minister to the gentle Mortimer.
Churchill, with all the energy of hatred, de-
plored the fate of his country, invaded by
new race ofspvaees, more cruel and raven
Gus than the Picts or the Danes, the poor,
proud children of lerrosy and hunger. 1T is
slight circumstance, but deserves to be re-
corded, tia, in this year pamphle,eers first
ventured to print at length the names of the
great men whom they lampoonrd George
the Second has always been the Is. HIS
ministers had been Sir R--W-, Mr..
p, and the Duke of N. But tho
librlcrs OF George the Third, ofihc Princess
Mo,hcr, and the Lord Butte, did not give

1t was supposed that Lord Temple Sc
cretly encouraged the most scurrilous assall-
ants of the government. In truth, those who
knew his habits tracked him as men tracked
a mole. II was his nature to grub under

work Of government. lie had the magnan-
unity to proclaim evervv here the disgust that
he felt al the insults offered by his own add
herents to the Scottish nation, and missed no
opportunity of exlolling the CO rage and f.
deity which the Highland regiments had dis
played through the whole war. But, though
he disdaincd TO use any but lawful and hon
orabIe weapons, it was well known that his
fair blows were likely to be far more formi-
dabc than the privy thrusts of his brother-in
laws stileito.
Bute's heat began to fail him. The
treaty would instantly be the subject Of dis
cussion. 1t was probable that Put, the great
Wing connection, and the multitude, would
all be on the same side. The ilvorite had
professed to hold in abhorrence those means
(which preceding ministers had KEEP. the
House Of Commons in good hnmor. He
now began to think that he had been too
scrupalous.-Iiis U,oplan visions were at an
end. 1t was necessary, not only to bride,
