EXTRAORDINARY ECONOMY TO TEA DRINKERS . TTJHE DESIRE OF ENGLAND . —The PIQUA PLAN JL now sold at 3 s . Cd . perlb ., is three times the streng h of tea , and is also equal in flavour , more delicate in taste , nfinitely more healthy , as is proved by pnysldans ana chemists of high standing , also by persons in great numbersTfith the most delicate lungs and stomachs . It is most pleasant and invigorating , and is recommended to the debilitated for its invaluable qualities , to advanced age for its strengthening properties , and to the public generally for its moderate price and intrinsic excellence . The Test . —The proof of the efficacy and healthful eSset of the plant in preference to tea or coffee : —Let a nervous or dyspeptic patient use two or three cups of strong tea upon retiring to rest , and the effect will be night-mare , disturbed sleep , and other violent symptoms Of indigestions , ic . The Pboof . —Let the most debilitated , dyspeptic , asth-. static , consumptive , and nervous patients use two , three , or more cupsof a very strong infusion of the Fiona Plant , and in the morning they will awake refreshed with their repose . It is highly recommended by physicians to in . Talids and children as a . most invigorating and pleasant leverage . The following are reasons why the Piqua Plant it superior to tea , -riz .: — 1 st . Because it is beneficial to health , 2 nd . Ic does not injure the nerves . 3 rd . Children may use it with advantage to health . 4 th . It does not prevent sleep . 5 th . A quarter of & pound will go as far as three quarters of a pound of the best gunpowder tea . 6 th . It is strengthening and nutritious . 7 th . It is recommended by physicians , and tea is disapproved of by them . It greatly improves the voice ; it is recommended to singers and public speakers . TESTIMONIALS . 50 , Edgenrare-road , July 1 st , 1813 . Sir , —The beverage under the name of Piqua Plant I have drank for some time . It was first recommended to my notice as a salutary beverage by a friend , who is a great dyspeptic , and 1 have since recommended it to several patients suffering from chronic affections of the digestive organs , heart , and lungs , with manifest advan tage . —I am , sir , yours , &c To Mr . "Win . Evans . Johjt Sbtaht , M . D . 18 , Louther-street , YTMtehaven . Sir , —I am nearly ont of the plant again . My sale has doubled since I sent the last order ; indeed , it is fart finding its way among some of the best families in the town , and is highly approved of . Please send me oOlbs . immediately . —Tours , very respectfully , To Mr . Wm . Evans . J . BousTEaD . Dover-road , Sonthwark . Sir , —I am much pleased with your Piqua Plant ; and find that a portion of it mixed in the tea-pot with tea , is a . very great improvement to any tea , particularly green tea . —Yours , &c , To Mr . TTm . Evans . G . B . Belvidere-place , Borough-road , July 17 th , 1843 . Sir , —I have great pleasure , and indeed I consider it an jnperative duty , in justice to you , and for the benefit of others , to bear trst ' m my to the excellent qualities of the Piqua Plant . It has wholly removed a constant painful nervous debility with which I was affected , which produced restless nights , and consequently overpowering la&gour dining ihe day . Since the use of the infusion , ihe disease has entirely disappeared . I sleep soundly often for six , seven , and eight hours together , and am better in health than I have been for many years ; and Others , to whom I have recommended it , have experienced the same beneficial results . Yen are at liberty to use this testimonial , which I am ready to confirm in person any day you think proper . —I am , sir , your obedient sernnt , ToMr . Wm . Erans . O . Tahomdik . Numerous testimonials from physicians , and others , o undoubted authority , may be seen at Evans ' s depot . The plant is patronised by mnj of the first families in the land . The economy derived from the use of the Piqua Plant compared with tea , is as follows : —lib . of the plant will go as fer as lib . of tea .

THE LEAGUE . Ii is very ttftdiral that the high-sounding Inducementaof "kighwmget , cheap tread , and plenty tode , " should have secured the co-operation of those upon whose assistance the realisation of such fascinating prospects was said to depend , and for whose sole benefit the task was undertaken . Strange , however , and paradoxical as it may appear , we find t ^ ose for the improvement of whose condition the measure of ftee trade was intended , not only soewtioal and ~
dubious-aa to the promised results , but opposed to these by whose exertions they were to be ( realised . When prosperity had lulled the philanthropist to sleep , we were silent upon a Biihject upon which a great majority « f the working classes had madeup their minds ; but now that famine and declining trade have awaked the " great fact , " and brought its agitators OKce more into the field of action , we venture , with all the odds against us that cheap bread to the ¦ starring can present , to take the field against our old
opponent . . . The great principle of free trade has now resolved itself into a . momentary expedient , and that expedient we find backed by memorials ,, resolutions , remonstrances , and even threats , from the normal schools of free trade agitation . It is of this expediency , then , that we now write , lest our readers may suppose that the ports of this country could be opened and shut upon the mere caprice of our rulers . Sir William MoLESWoEXH . in his speech recently delivered atSouthwark , very sagaciously observed , "If the ports are once opened who will shut them again ?" Hence we find that that expedient , intended to mitigate the threatened famine , is relied upon for ^ the accomplishment of the principle of free , trade ,, and hence the success of the expedient is . equivalent to
the success of the principle ; and hence our opposi tion to the expedient should be as vigoroug as ^ our opposition to the principle . - ' . ; The Times newspaper has recently used the same arguments against the League , that the League , the Sturgeites , and professing Radicals have exhausted against Chartism . The Tim e * says , that the prejudice against the principle of free trade is fast fading away , and that its accomplishment is only retarded by the prejudice entertained against its supporters . Let us carry tour measure while you give us your support , but abstain from taking the lead lest the apprehensions of the weak-minded landlords , for whose destruction It is intended , should be arousod . In
other words you are , — The avowed , the erect , the manly foe , Bold , they can meet , perhaps may turn your blow ; While , if on us the lordly fools depend , We'll cut their throats , for we have been their friend . Now Buch was precisely the argument relied upon by would-be-Chartists for the destruction of the principle through the destruction of the-leaders ; As it was well expressed by the late Dr . Wads , at Birmingham , when he said ,- " My . friends , it . is not
YOUR NAME , BUX YOUR PRINCIPLES IJIAT THEY DEEAD j " and precisely the same result which would have followed the abandonment of our name , would follow the abandonment of free trade agitation by the League . We , however , are placed in ; a different position to the Times . We are not more opposed to the principle of free trade under existing circumstances , than we are to the parties whose uncontrolled power must be established by the accomplishment of the measure .
In every instance where legislation interferes with amonoply of free traders , their existing interests are obstructively paraded ; for example—when Sir Robert Pkel proposed cheap travelling by railway for the working classes , Mr . -Bright , * and the free traders , were loud in denunciation of any interference with thbir existing interest * . When" Sir Robebi Peel proposed his cattle tariff , some of the raw and undisciplined troops defended the existing interests of the landlords ; and it is because we have a more
lively and anxious care and solicitude for the exis | tlsu iflusREsiB of the working classes than for all other classes , that we . ever have and eVer shall defend them against the usurped authority of those who would have the greatest interest in destroying every vestige of their rights . It matters riot whether Sir Robert Peel concedes the principle or acknowledges the expediency—in either case the accomplishment of the measure is the confession and the acknowledgment of the triumph of capital over labour .
Whether he carries the measure from his presumed convictions in its favour , or whether he carries it as the tool of its avowed advocates , it will not alter its character , nor will it less mark the power of its supporters ; and it is against that power in its ulterior working , even more than against the principle itself , that we have ever contended . Cabinets are ever fashioned , ^ and local power is ever modelled , according to the political dress and bias of that majority of which they are the administration , and that administration is the reflex of the power that creates it . The power makes the law—the adrainiB
tration sees to its due exercise—and to this end strengthens itself through every channel that may conduce to its support . Hence , as we have stated aforetime , if we have a free trade cabinet , we must have a free trade House of Commons . If we have a free trade House of Commons , we must have free trade patronage extended to all who will support free trade principles ; and if we have free trade principles its professors must have their triumph , and that triumph will be marked by the entire prostration of labour to capital , and the legal humiliation , degradation , coercion , and punishment of those ' who shall THEN DARE TO VIOLATE LAWS enacted for the ESPECIAL
PROTECTION OF THE LABOURING CLASSES . Perhaps one of the most curious anomalies of the present fruitful and inventive age is the great int erest attached to a sufficiency of corn produced in foreign countries , and the slight interest taken in its production from the landat home . The labourer , how * ever , who toils for a precarious existence , will find but little difficulty when the conundrum is properly solved for him . If the whole of that corn which is now produced at home was produced abroad , all those
who are now engaged in its domestic cultivation would either be thrown as supplicants into the artificial market , ear if a Deduction in the price -af produce was the result , their present poor pittance would fee reduced by that slibins scale $ > y which employers ever regulate iterate of wages ,, and , as cheap and dear are ¦ relative terms , ike j > au < p . bej& labourer Wen emeuhted £ ROm CHABiirsr would find tkat it was more difficult ; to toy the cheap loaf . wiih . out money than to buy the ( dearer loaf with money wages regulated by the ralue > of its price .
Tbe landlords are the most iheJ-pleaa , hopefcss , igno rant , and unoeqnected class . of society , and . they being , under-the Chandos ( Clause , the depositories of much power , are now being fascinatingl y taokled . by the fashioned words of their "" . candid friend" of the Times . Their Mead not only Jsaocks down ai ] European hobgoblin * that afirjgfot them , but , like Jack , would slay the . American Giant jw threateningly
prolific in that commodity which might be brought into competition with their uomergrwm produce Danger from European supply is aigued Mfion present temporary inability to spare , and thus expediency is propped , while the danger of the principle is met by an assumption which none but an UafACCOIttfTABLE abithmetician would dare to raise . From an elaborate table , showing us the results of American produce for many years , the Timu adduces thegbkat
pact , that for many future years America would not beable to export more than 1 , 500 , 000 quarters of wheat per annum to this country , and thus disposes of the American Giant , without taking at ail into calculation the boundless ' resources and increased induceijwjji * to cultivation . Nations , like individuals , hare some scale to regulate demand and supply ; and vrhilea total prohibition agauat the importation of foreigncorn : may . " so regulate its growth abroad as to leave scarcely any surplus above calculated requirements , so the invitation of free trade may be met bv increased production beyond the requirements of the necessitous .. But how mad ,
Untitled Article
how chud ; gh how absurd , to dedu . * e prospects of ah altered future from the past . If tfa * invitation is giveJi by the richest country in tfae world in money to the most productive counter in the world ¦ to furnish an exchange for that mw » y , the altered circurastances will govern the future operations ; and so far from America , only producing 1 , 500 , 000 quarters of wheat for the English maiiket for each of the next six years , America , under "the . altered circumstances , would in less than three years send 15 , 000 , 000 quarters annually of her untaxed , tithe free , army free , nary free , police free , monarch free , patronage free ,
and idler-free Wheat into this country—not only to compete against English rents , but to compete against Engush LAitova . For instance , although there may hot now be a surplus of white horses in England , yet , if there was a bonus of £ 20 given for every white horse as fast as they could be bred , all other colours would vanish . Oh ! but then freight and insurance ! A flea bite . Oh ! but the quantity of our manufactured goods that Americans would then take ! A delusion . Americans are learning the secret that it is cheaper to manufacture their own cotton than to send it to England with heavy expense and risk ,
and to get it back with double expense and risk . Therefore , if the thing to be fought for is bread , and if the land alone pi-educes bread , and if those countries , under proper regulations of thai land , are independent of us in times of peace and times of war , while we must periodically rely upon their gknerositt or policy for its produce , let us have the land—that land which is ours by right divine , by legal right , by moral right , and by natural right . When the stomach is full , man will know how to keep his back warm ; but when the back is cold the nerves are weak . For all these reasons we are opposed to the expedient , because we are opposed to the principle ;
and . we are opposed to the principle because its realisation would make bad men the arbiters of good men ' s fate . Our principle ever has been , that when the Corn Laws are repealed they must be repealed by the whole people , and for the benefit of all , and not to mark the triumph of the few—the griping and the interested—over the lives , the liberties , and-the properties of the many . And our triumph can be only manifest in the possession of that amount of land which will make every man his own producerteach him . the value of his own labour , and constitute him a recognised unit of that society of which he would then be an honoured member .

This production is not only a gem in its . way , but is a record of truculency , wavering , ^ inconsistency and folly worthy of being preserved through all time . We have here a perfect illustration of that sliding scale to which the noble lord pompously submits the measure
of his consistency , and not less remarkable than the writer ' * admission of inconsistency is the comment o * the Morning Chronicle upon his great consistency _ The noble lord informs us that for many years he has been cequeting with the question of free trade , and that he is at length about to steer his vessel to the free trade port , " while the corn barometer points to fair , " meaninu thereby that a favourable opportunity of famine presents itself to the Whig party once more to secure the Government of the country .
The noble lord , in order to divide the responsibility of inconsistency , whereby his own may be lessened in degree ,, informs his constituents that the League , who , in 1841 , had nailed " no compromise" to their mast , would , in the language of the writer , at that very period have consented to a fixed duty of 8 s . a quarter . His words are : —** fa 1841 the free trade party would have agreed to a duty of 8 s , a quarter on wheat . " Now we may fairly ask if this admission is not a condemnation of the free trade party : and we
may as fairly conclude that the League of that day were creating an extreme public opinion which they proposed to receive and barter for the accomplishment of a less extreme measure than was promised as the fruit of a fiery , continuous , and extensive agitation . Is it likely , then , that opinions forced upon the noble lord by a casual calamity will remain unchanged when the noble lord shall have achieved that power which his seasonable entertainment o them may confer upon him .
Has there ever been a question at issue between the public and the party in power , when that which appeared the most popular view has not been adopted by the other party contending for power ? Thus Lord John Russell makes the present issue to depend upon the will and the requirements of her Majesty ' s subjects upon the one hand , and the disinclination of her Ministers to obey that will , or meet that necessity , upon the other hand . In this view of the case we iear that the noble lord has fallen into the old Whig
error asto who the people are ! We presume that under the head subjects he includes the whole people ; and as he has thus deferentially appealed to the whole people , we straightway tell him that the whole people vvillnever again consent to that change which carries with it the mere transfer of power from the hands of one party to those of its opponents—that the v / Mc people are resolved to have their share in the next change—and that that share shall be the power to convert any benefit that may result from any alteration made in the Corn Laws to national and not to party
purposes . While the free trade rages we dread the crisis which may end in finality . While the bowels of compassion are open , we stand aghast at his lordship's dietary table for the poor . While freedom of thought and action are paraded as the rights of the subject , we shudder at the recollection of our cold and chilly dungeon . In the epistle of the noble lord we find some passages which may serve for what ought to be the rule of his political conduct . He tells us that " the
RESULT OF RESISTANCE 10 QUALIFIES CONCESSIONS MUST BE THE SAME IN THE PRESENT INSTANCE AS in ihose i havb mentioned . " If , then , the noble lord calculates upon the whole people . as her Majesty ' s subjects , may we not apply this rule of increased demand as the result " of resistance to qualified concessions i " Does the noble lord forget our letter to him , published intheJV&rtien * Star of June 1839 , wherein * we attributed . the demand for the Charter to the nonconces 9 ion . e £ those qualified measures with which the people would have been satisfied as the result of the Reform Bill 2 And may we not now use Lord John
edBxjssell ' s admission of this propelling and resisting power , as a ( justification oi our policy , nay , as an invitation to inccease our demands . In that letter we told the oaWe lord , that , if the people had received tfce adjustment of national requirements , instead -of starvation and coercion , the sawgeness of despondency would have naver been created , and itltat ( the . people would have ifeeen satisfied with even fewer oonoessions than he and ihe leading itefonnees jbai promised them . And , itkeffefore , as-ihe refusal of * iateiyvconeession to the free ( trade party warrants ' -the adheaiea of the noMe lord to the extasae principle « f free tasde , has not iis total disregard « f . petition , appeal , aad remonstrain * , justified our demand for so much political
power as will secure thote concesaioag that & , ive been refused ? There is icarcely a line in this memorable docuicent that does not furnish Hg with a justificatioH for the past and hope in the future . Not hope from the present mariner , who sees the baro meter pointing to famine , and would use its umast how * to pilot am into port ; but in ourselves and in that concession which our position Jias reluctantly wrung from the Whig iMinister . RUS 8 m wouIJ rather hold with a landed aristocracy , if his friendly connection would achieve his triumph and his party ' s share of aational plunder ; but , that being impossible , like Catalme , he h resolved to be victor , Per fas aut nefas . .

Chartist ' reader think of this timely admission ? Will he not suppose that ' it is our language ? The very argument we -used—the very course that we suggested in our speech in the House of Commons in 1834—the preliminary step that we have from that hour to the present advocated as indispensable to the fair settlement of the question ! Is it not the very princip le for which we were consigned to a dungeon , while iusix years after our gaoler and persecutor is
distinguished as a great statesman for the discovery ? Yes , we hold fast by every word of the above passage , and we tell the noble lord , that , besides this adjustment between the power to buy food and the obligation to support a bauble and its bells , we tell him that the only other provision that " caution and scrupulous forbearance" can suggest , is tbe provision against'want , the provision against oppression , the provision against over-taxation , embodied and declared in that document entitled the PEOPLE'S
CHARTER . Under another head we have discussed the general question of free trade , and have shown the probable result . of its achievements under existing circumstances , ( What a full meaning term !) Under that head we depicted the horrors which must inevitably result from a free trade cabinet , and those horrors will be a thousand fold increased and multiplied if the measure was achieved by a union of the Whigs and free traders . Hence , so far from the noble lord having evinced policy by attacking Sir Robert Peel in what he considered the tender point , and at the fitting time , we tell him , that , if public opinion was
ROTTEN ENOUGH TO BE RELIED UPON AS HIS ACCOMPLICE , we and a large majority of her Majesty ' s subjects would much prefer the adjustment and application of details by Sir Robert Peel to those which the whimsicality , caprice , and consistency of the noble lord would suggest . Yes , ten thousand times give us the Tory , who has humbled the church , who has undeceived the landlords , who has endeavoured tc give us cheap foreign food that requires but little labour to produce it , to the Whig that has aimed heavy blows , but fears to strike , at the church , that has pandered to the landlords , and would now depress the national labour market by admitting as its competitor the produce of slave labour . We have
sworn in our wrath that never again with our consent shall there be any transfer of power—and least of all to the old scotched snake Wluggery—in which the people have not their full share . We have vowed vengeance against Coercion because we are Irish . We have vowed vengeance against Starvation because , as an exile , we have been hospitably received by the English . We have vowed vengeance against the unjust and tyrannical incarceration of honest working men of all countries , because we are cosmopolite , and therefore do we vow vengeance against the triumph of a party who would once more make their victory our desolation , our home a dungeon , our Charter a by-word of scorn .

PRO G RESS . OF THE NEW DODGE . Since the above article was in type we find from the report of a free trade meeting , holden at Leeds , that Lord Mokpeth , the great " rejected" of the West Riding , has taken the first step in the game of " follow my leader , " by giving in his adhesion to the eause of the cottonocracy . , Of course these simultaneous doings of Lords Russell and MoiirETii hare been decided on " without previous arrangement or concert ! " An attempt at a revival of the Whig juggle of 1831-32 is evidently close at hand . Will it be successful ? Will the people allow themselves to be humbugged again ? We shall see . The following letter was read at the Leeds
meeting : — Castle Howard , Nov . 24 , 1845 . Hy dear Mr . Baines—I perceive that you are about to have a meeting at Leeds to promote the qualification of electors , with a view to further the objects of the Anti-Cors-Law League . ^ . You will probably remember being present upon an occasion when , amidst very strong surrounding inducement , I forbore from pledging myself to the . entire extent of those objects . All that has since intervened , all especially that is now occurring , a follow feelmg with my old friends in the riding ( although I less than ever antic :-pate any probable renewal of a political connection
between us ) , and a sense of what has been effected by the Anti-Corn-law League to advance their great end , al ke combine to put an end to all further doubt or reserve on my own part , and I write this without concert or consultation with any one else . The contribution I enclose for your immediate purposes is of very trifling amount ; it tyouIcI net be easy to foresee what callB may not be made upon any of us in the course of the ensuing year ; but I wish to record in the most emphatic way I can my conviotbn that the time is come for u final repeal oJ the Corn LawBJ and my protest against the continued inaction of the State in the present emergency . Believe me , dear Mr . Baines , yours very faithfully , Edwaed Baines , juu ., Esq . Morpbth .

White Slayerx ih England . —Traffic is Hduan Fiesh . — ( From the Nottingham Journal )— "We lately found the following cool announcement in a Derbyshire paper . It it related amongst the ordinary proceedings of the Chesterfield Board of Guardians , on Saturday the 25 th o £ October last : — "The Clerk stated to the Board that a person from the silk manufactory of Messrs . Bridgett and Co ,, Derby , had been to view the girls in the Union Poor-house , and on their
being arranged before him , he expressed hie satisfaction at their healthy appearance , and selected fourteen of the age of ten years and upwards , which were to be delivered at the manufactory in Derby , free of charge in the course of the ensuing week . Some older girls of thirteen or fourteen were rejected as not being so suitable for his purpose . " We whould have ouv readers to mark the precision of the terms upon which this little bit of slave-dealing is transacted : "Fourteen GIRLS OF THE AGE 01 ? TEN SEABS AND UPWARDS TO BE pehverbd Messes . Bhidgett ' s manufactoey . in Debbt , fbee of charge "—that is to say , cauriage paid ! ! I Now , we dare say , that many people will be incredulous , acd have grave doubts whether anything so monstrous as that we have cited ever took place ,
and yet it is doubtlesa quite true . Whataninier ^ sting sight it must have been to see these young animalf , fed up , no doubt , for the purpose , all ranged in proper order , so as to be shown to the best advantage to Messrs . Bridgctt ' 8 slave-driver ! Then how carefully the said slave-driver selects his stock . " Some older girls of thirteen or fourteen being rejected as not being suitable for his purpose . " How unfortunate these older ones must consider themselves in not being Suitable to the slave-dealer ' s purpose ! But what is his purpese ! W-e wait for an answer . Alas ! for the orphan poor of England . To be fed in an Union Poorhouse till ten vears of age—then to be delivered
carnage free at a manufactory , and afterwards—at the parish expense probably—consigned to the grave ! Perhaps it trill bo eaid , that at Messrs . Bridgett ' s factory the operatives are treated with kindness aud humanity —that their moral , religious , and intellectual , as well ac their physical condition , is cared for—that , in short , it is a sort of boardjag-school for the teaching of all sorts of accomplishments , and improving the education of pauper children . —W « anticipate that some such defence will be sec up . llany of the West India planters could h& \ e produced , certificates of kind treatment of their slam- * aad yet slavery was abolishedin the West Indie * .

' Tdp Land . —To the Editor of tbe A orMmi . Sfaiv—Sir , - Having been on board the Invincible for the last quart !] of a century , I trust that , as captain of the same , you will allow an old voyager to throw out a little of fe jaw-tackle to his brother shipmates—not to cventea mutiny , nor yet to induce them to tack about , iK merely to caution them to steer clear of the mu /( i ( n " dinous rocks and quickeands that beset our comtj . Iea 6 t we should go to Davy ' s locker at the very time we all descry the longlooked-for land . - Well , my hearties . I presume we are all hankering after a bit of "tfoj tight little island , " and anxious to cast anchor on a firm and sound bottom , and shelter ourselves from tlie blasts of poverty under our own blackberry bush , aaj realise the . sweets of home , instead of
singing" Home , home , sweet home " ' mid diseased potatoes and short commons , and eren these not secure from tho lubberly piratet who fatten on that fur which neither they nor their rotten fore . fathers , ever toiled or spun . Since we have \ , making for the land , our ship has rode majestical ! j before a fair and steady gale , not a single leak has teen discovered—not oneo £ her timbers damaged , ani | i ( have made lrfore way than any of the boasted fa-t sailors ever known to traverse the political ocean . But , notwithstanding all this , let us not lie donnin tlie hammock of imaginary security . There are roti-j nigh the surface , and the nearer we approach ite haven , the greater will be the caution required , both mi
the part of the officers and crew . A cluster of roeis called the crotchets , which are barely visible at hfch water , has been the destruction of thousands , at tie very moment they were within reach of the object rf their desire . To avoid these , every precaution is nc . cetsary , and all on board must be on the look out . The progress made , and the success attendant on ths voyage has been the result of a judicious discrimination in the selection of officers—men conversant \ vi : li the intricacies of the course , and possessed of sufficient knowledge to guide the vessel in safety to its destintl port—men too honest to sacrifice tho ship and cargo to subserve party purposes or private interest . This fact ought to induce the crew to remain steadfast in
their attachment to the omcDrs , and to deter them from ringing changes at the suggestion of tho S . vrens who sinu of the sweetness of variety . Beware of thesli : irl > F . These will play around the ship iu shoals in liope ui pickings j but Jet them taste the harpoon of your dif » pleasnre , and they will soon be left writhing in the distance . As the ship ncavs the lvavbour you wi . l perceive many strange pilots rowing towards the Jiiriis . cihle , but give tbe rascals a cut or two with the cutlass of your indignation , if they attempt to mount the tied ' , and they will soon understand that you hare in eainest taken the unintentionally-spoken advice of the pilot of the enemy ' s ship ( the State ) , by taking your own affairs into your own bauds . If a storm should threaten to arise in the north—which some
prognosticate , from the appearance of the little black spot seen by the captain just emerging from the horizon—be not dismayed ; all is bright and serene in every other quarter of the compass ; and the genius under whose benign influence you have hitherto prospered , will chase the » peck to its original nonentity . As a consultation of the ablest hands is about to determine on the best mode of landing , it will beixpedient that they should be cool , and thoughtful , and fully impressed with the importance of their missiouto beware of Babel-builders , schemers , and neiv-t ' imgled system-mongers . Let them be instructed to tar and feather novel nostrum-vender 6 , atter enquiring their come-from ; for , depend upon it , the truculent Tories , the wily Whigs , and the light-fingered leai-ue ,
will all want a hand iu the matter , for certain reason ; . In the description given of the Land and its capacities not the least exaggeration has been indulged in by the propouuders of the measure , yet tome men are apt to build castles in the air , and when their imaginary felicity , or dreams , arc not realised in every particular , they are wont to indulge in outbursts of disappointment , chagria , and , not unfrcquently , hatred towards their best friends . A practicable measure has teen propounded , and received unexpected support—Its benefits resulting from a judicious mode ot operation in the carrying out of that measure are many and important ; but beware , least you kick your basket d brittle ware , and destroy the prospect of good at lie outset ' . Don't imagine that on landing you are atonce
to be ushered into paradise—that you are there to si while the earth spontaneously pours forth its fulnei at jour feeh No ; labour , diligence , and economy ni-1 be indispensable to the perfection of the object sou : i » Labour may then reap its reward—comfort reajt * found in the cottage , and a basis laid for the temple c > universal freedom . The attainment of the CtaiB ' will be greatly facilitated , and the overthrow of dtfpotism accelerated . Always remember theLaviM the Charter must be bound together to achieve & happiness of man—the work cannot be perfected witout the attainment of both—they are tho two brsai'i from which alone the body politic must derive su : t « - nance and support . let ( he shout and struggl * t * for the Land and the Charter . — -Tours truly , Wit-LiAM Rider . —Londfen , November 2 Gtb . 1945 .
