The bold and daring manner in which the Lead¬ ers of Ihe Radical Reformers avowed their designs to overturn tho Government, and the means they employed to sap the foundations of morality and refigion by the circulation of blasphemous and seditious writings among tin* populace, required ihe adoption of some strong measures, to check the. torrent of infi¬ delity and rebellion which was beginning to overspread Ihe country.

Sfi!l less are we inclined to estimate the loss which truth, and reason, and fair argument will sustain from the silence tiou likely to be imposed Upon .Mr. Orator Hunt and his fellow labourers. These are high matters, grave questions of political economy, which we cannot presume to determine. We are con- fcnt to purchase peace and tranquility even hI such sacrifices as these ; and we have only to express our earnest hope, That if this, ancl the other bills now before Parliament pass into laws, they will be promptly and vigor¬ ously carried into execution. it is evident the iiadicals are disconcerted. The hold and manly front of resistance h;.s imposed a sal¬ utary check upon their audacity. They had flattered themselves that loyal men were few or timid, thai the Government was irresolule or diltident of support, and that the military might be seduced from their allegiance. In all therie expectations they have experienced an tmlooked for and mortifying disappoint¬ ment. They have found thai their insolence, their threats, and their preparations have roused the spirit, instead of awakening the fears of those whose property the) had des¬ tined for the spoiler, and whose persons they had marked as the victims of the great Jaco¬ binical sacrifice, by which their triumph was to beat Onre secured and celebrated. They have seen that the Government of the coun¬ try is wise enou-li to pen-dive, and skilful enoiijti lo devise tlie means of counteracting their nefarious projects; and lo their utter confusion and alarm, they have observed wise, and {rood, and virtuous men of all par¬ ties, forgetting their dissentions, orsacrificing them upon the altar of their country, and ral¬ lying round the throne in the hour of peril.
