than has been known within the memory of man; fewer men ht either
for critical negotiations, or great c®mmands, than ever we had ; factions
ready to make a war at home, with a party spirit that will facrifice a)’
things to itfelf; a general wane of ellcem and refpeft to foperfors; jea
lousies and fears w the hearts of the bed affefted men ; and a growing o.

The present contention between the people and tbeir representatives is
of such a nature as calls for the immediate interposition of the regal
power; for, as the intereftsof ;he King and people are one and the fame,
ami inferrable, so he mud fuffer, if his fubjeds do. It is a contention
of the moft alarming nature, and may, if not soon remedied, in a coiifti
a-tional way, find a remedy sot itfelf, in adtfToiuti o of the conditotion.
1 he King hath tnofttolofc, and therefore is moft interested to make use
of that conltnational interposition which is in his power, and which may
prevent the fatal eMs of an intelline commotion, petitions, disregard
ed, may beget remonstrances, unheeded, may produce such ditlnrbances,
as every one mull drad, and no one can tell the end of.
Feb. 28. Yerterday th Supporters of the Bill of Rightl dined at th*
London tavern in Bifhopfgate ttreet; Mr. Serjeant Glynn in the chair,
according to the choice *f the last meeting. After dinner they examined
into the ltate of Mr. Wilkes’, affairs, and came to the resolution of re*
moving every obstacle which could possibly interfere with bis enlargement
at the expiration of his (Sentence.
At the lail meeting it is said the amount of Mr. Wilkes’s debts was re*
duced to about four thousand po*§,; and it forth#.ppeared, that a mi
mfterial agent had bought up fixteco hundred pounds, which he is de
termined not togive a difeharge for under twenty (hillings in the pound.

In a late conference between a great perfonageand a late popular esm

so valuable a Jenrant, and expreded so much personal regard for him, that
it drew tears from both parties.
