Shall we, who have made our fortunes during the war, have the pre* iumption to alk from Parliament a privilege, to the [utter exclufion of thofe who have fuffered the mod ieverely in the late unnatu* ral conflia ? Are we not fatisfied with what wo have already gained by the war, from our fortunate fit* uation, and muft we alone enjoy all the advantages to be derived from the Peace ? An Act of the kind paffed during the entiling feffion, will appear little lefs than tyran¬ ny.
