This gentleman has fo nobly ciiftingui(lied himfeif in oppofiiion to die corruption, abufes and tyran- to the times. But lliut out of your j n / ot the Britifh government, as to prudent minds and honeft bofoms, j have excited confiderable attention civil domeftic difeoment.

Remember candidly, that no good meafuros occur to the minds of any man, or any party, adequate to the cure of the vnft evils of the times. Expedft not impoflibiiities. Do not be heated, becaufe men in government cannot devife what men out of go vernment arc alfo unable to devife. Every nation in Europe cries out to earth and heaven, “ men & brethren, what can we do to be temporally fav- ed”—but they one S: all cry in vain : For the bofom of defrrudfive war fv.eeps all before it. We claim of nur government more than the ftrengrh of other nations—more than the (Length of man. Jt is not the ftrft time in the hiftory of the world, that the bad have diftradled and en dangered the good ; nor will it prove the Salt. Let us not add, to the pref- fure of external ills, the far greater ill of unfounded difeontent at home. The embargo was notorioufly a- dopted, in a crifis, when the feveral belligerents had begun to raife the floodgates of deftrudlion over our commerce. It was confide red as an cccafior.al meafure; appropriate to that lingular crifis, and limited to its duration. It was not contemplated, that the body politic w ould have for ever to hrar a fufpenfton of its func tions. If it was perceived foon after wards, that this meafure would try the aggrefTors. That was a fubfe- quent conGderation, the value of which depended much on external circumftances ; much on our willing- nefs to make the embargo teal, kf to endure its trials. In a world which has univerfally, excsptourfelvps, fnb- mitted to the BriEflt or French Fite writer had the honor and latis fatflionof a perfonal intamacy with Sir Francis Burdett, and what lie writes is of his own knowledge. Sir Francis Buidettis now about 38 years of age. He is about 5 feet 11 inches in height. His counte nance is intelligent, an.maced and peculiarly poffi ifing He is well made, anti hi; face rather haridfome than maiked by any boldnefs of ex prelfion or ch.iratteriltic of mind. His voice if, loft, iwect, well toned and in good command. It is evident that fuel) a m in is eminently quali fied for a public fpeaker, amt the manner of his addreis, his language and his atflion, are of thole kituls that are certain to arielt amt fecure public attention. It was in the year 1795—-G, that Sir Francis Burdett made his debut as a politician ; he then prelided at a dinner ol a very numerous and R-f- pettable meeting of the triends of parliamentary reform, at the Crown and Anchor Tavern. 'The (irft oc- cafion in which he cliftinguifhcd him feif in parliament was in the year 179S,hy his active, perfeveiing and unremitting eftorts to ameliorate the condition of the Hate prifoners, pat ticulatly thofe confitteti in Cold Bath Fields or the New-Callle ptilon. Sir Francis Burdett’s toitune is believed to be at this time between 30 and 40 thoufand pounds lteilii.g a year ; and he, without exception, the only Englillnnan ol large lot turn who has been known to the wniei who was in principle and in prat lic a zealous and dif.ntercIL^l stdVoc.itc of the rights of the people, lie ne ver united himfeif with any partj iu the lioufe ot commons, lie con- fidered the torics and w hies in no other light than as w aul cufr. and 1 ah.ia_ » l as adled independent of both. H« was intimately acquainted with many of the rnoft eminent and affive Jtifh politicians. Me lnvtd their perfons, he honored their ef forts in the caufe of their country,, and he revered tlieir principles He has ever from ly* debut hecn viewed with a jealous and watchful eye by the government of England, and ir is believed that they fear him more than any individual in the united ! kingdoms. | His commitment to the tower is J a (Liking evidence of their fear and their folly —They muft libera’® . him at the clofe of the felfion, and In? will corne forth as the beloved chain- | pion and the opprefled advocate of j the Tights and liberties of tbe people.
