Emboldened by the success of this expedient, its authors will venture on more vigorous measures : test will steal upon test ; the bounds of tolerated opinion will be continually narrowed, till we awake under the fange of a relentless despotism. SECTION III. ON A REFORM OF PARLIAMENT. WH ATE VER difference of opinion may take place in points of less importance, there is one in which the friends of freedom are entirely agreed, that is, the necessity of reform in the representation. The theory of ...the English constitution presents three independent powers ; the king as executive head, with a negative in the legislature, an hereditary House of Peers, and an assembly of Commons who are appointed to represent the nation at large. From this enumeration it is plain, the people of England can have no liberty, that is, no share in forming the laws, but what they exert through the medium of the last of those bodies ; nor then, but in proportion to its independence of the other. The indepen- dence, therefore, of the House of Commons, is the column on which the whole fabric of our liberty rests.
