HIsToRY REPEATING ITSELF Lord Ma
caulay, in an essay on William Pitt, says of
England:
The habeas eo-pus act was suspended
Public meetings were put under severe re-
straint. The government obtained from
Parliament power to send out ofthe couu-
try aliens who were suspected of evil de-
signs; and that power was not suffered to lie
idle. Writers who propoundeG doctrines
to monarchy were prescribed and punished
without mercy. 1t was hardly safe for a
republican to avow his political creed over
his beef-steak at a chop-house. The old
laws of Scotland against seditiou, laws
which were considered by Englishmen as
barbarous, and which a succession of gov
ernments had suffered to rust, were now
furnished up and sharpeued anew. Men of
cultivated minds and polished manners
were, for offenses which at Westminster
would have been treated as mere mis-
GemeaDors, sent to herd with felons al
Botany Bay. This severity was at the time
loudly applauded by alarmists whom fear
bad made cruel, but will be seen in a very
different light BY Losterity.
