For my own part, I cannot believe, that the people at large, the sensible, intelligent, and reflecting part of the community of these realms, has been yet brought to view the subject with such short- sighted indifference. I am persuaded, that though they be anxious for Reform, they wish to see it executed with justice and discretion.
