We all of us know that however good the ., claims of this unhappy foreigner may be , he has not the remotest chance of carrying his point without bullying us . It is not enough for him to prove that his claims are just . What know we of justice ? It is not enough for him to tell us that he has been ruined by our cruelty , and that his family will starve . What know we of must mercy vex ? No our , ears he must with prove his shouts to us for that justice he can ; he annoy must us bother . He us and dun us till ( selfish curs that we are !) we pay him his dues just to keep him quiet and ourselves in peace ! Not a reader of this page will deny what we say . We are cognisant of our own shortcomings , and although we may shout aloud our love of British Institutions , not a soul of us but knows that our praises are sung , our cries uttered to the honour and glory of that Ruler of all our actions—sleek King Humbug . We have written thus plainly because it is as well now and then to put on sack cloth and ashes , and because it is especially desirable so to do during the holy season of Lent . In conclusion , the Nawab of Nazim ' s case is so flagrant , so disgraceful , that , forgetting for the moment that we are Englishmen by law , we have written as we should write , as gentlemen by birth , and as Christians by religion .
