The news brought from Liverpool by i he ship Crine wears a terrific and ptutenthus as¬ pect. It is to its in this distant quarter a mat¬ ter of astonishment that in the heart of Ihe metropolis of England, and in the present age of .-octal refinement, monsters could h** found so devoid ot the common feelings of humanity as to he capable of conceiving a plan for the assassination at one and the same loKtanl nfthe whole Cabinet—a plan unpre- eedenied and unequalled In point of atrocity in the British annals, except hy the famous Gunpowder Plot, A superstitious higdtry, and a wild fanaticism, combined with politi¬ cal motives,served to prepare the minds of Guy Faux, and his associates, for the diabol¬ ical attempt to destroy the King and Parlia¬ ment. A ruthless spirit of cruelty and Jaw- less revenge against the Members of that Mi- nisrry. who had promptly endeavoured to stem the torrent of blasphemy and sedition which was fast threatening the country with ruin, has doubtless hatched this last hellish plot. We have here a just comment on the opinions and views of the vile party, called Radicals, and a remarkable proof nf the fruits produced by the dissemination through England of infidel publications. The neces¬ sity of ihe laws lately enacted for the sup¬ pression of such mischievous writings, in some of which assassination was indeed daringlv commended, is also fully exemplified—and it appears probable thai tht^ discovery of this foul conspiracy will open the eyes of many well meaning though misguided men, and lead them to distrust the doctrines, and dis- counten^nee theproWTN of sorb innovators and s.oir-stvle<i patriots as Cobbett, Hunt, Waraonand AVooler, the noted companions of the miscreant Thistleu ood. «JI r<-i>rMarv,.|,r K^-hr *»,.. s,r \lt:iry <;,,„,. ae Lard (In. iJuM.cc nf Itor Court ca i™,.
