EXTRACT FROM JUNIUS.

My Lord, if the measures in

which you

have been most successful | had been sup- | ported by

| | | any tolerable ap- | pearance of | argument, I should have thought my | time | not | ill em- | ployed tinuing to examine your conduct

in con- |

as a minister,

and | stating it | fairly to the public. || But | when I highest | national im- | portance |

see | questions of the

carried as they have been,

the | consti- | tution || openly | violated,

with- | out

and the | first | principles of

your predecessors | had a- | bilities | suf- ficient to | give a color to their | measures. || If they in- | vaded people, they | did not | dare to | offer

the | rights of the

to their | under | standing:

a di-rect insult and, in | former times, the most | venal | parliaments | made it a con- dition in their | bargain with the | minister, | that he should furnish them with some | plausible pre- | tences for selling their | country and them- | selves.

You have had the | merit of | intro- | ducing a | more com| pendious system of government and | logic. neither ad- dress yourself to the passions

|

You | nor the | under- | standing, but | simply to the touch. |◄ You apply yourself | im- | mediately to the | feelings of your friends; | who, | contrary to the forms of parlia ment, never | enter | heartily | into a de- | bate | un- | til they have di- | vided. | Re- | linquishing, | therefore, | all | idle views of a- | mendment to your grace, or of | benefit to the public, || let me be per- | mitted to | leave for an- | other | letter | the exami- | nation of your character and conduct; || simply re- | marking in | this | that there is something in both which dis- | tinguishes you | not only from | all | other | ministers, but all other | men. It is not that you | do | wrong by de- | sign,

[ocr errors]

| but that you should never | do | right by mis- | take. | It is not that your | indolence, and your ac- | tivity,

have been equally | misap- | plied || but that the | first uniform | principle, | or | if I may | call it the | genius of your life, should have | carried you | through every | possible | change | and | contra- | dicmomentary | impu- |

tion of conduct, with- | out the

tation or color of a | virtue. | And that the | wildest | spirit of inconsistency should | never | once have be- | trayed you into a wise or | honorable | action.
