As an equiva- lent, they might have said, for acknowledging the exist- ence of a state that had made almost all her enemies trem- ble for their own. Between independent nations, the only sort of equiva- lent that can be reasonably expected for the acknowledg- ment of one title is, the acknowledgment of some other. If two states quarrel, and each refuses to recognise the title which the other has assumed, it might not be con- sistent with the dignity of either of them to yield this point to the ...adversary, without being first assured of re- ceiving from him a similar concession. If the rulers of France had refused to acknowledge the king of Great-Bri- tain, ministers would have been blameable in recognising them as a lawful government without demanding at the same time the formal acknowledgment of his majesty*s au- thority. But as they have never denied it, there was no- thing that we could have justly demanded from them in return. The next proposition to be examined is, " that if we make peace with the French republic ; our religion, pro- 67 perty, constitution, and laws, and the whole system of government, usages, morals and manners now established in Europe will be speedily destroyed." It IS extraordinary that the apprehensions which weise at one time entertained from the revolutionary principle, should still remain in any man's mind undiminished, since they have not been justified by a single event.
