" Yet, " hinc ilia la- chrymce" — Hence this avowed hostility on one side, and this apathy, or rather secret abetment, on the other. It is the interest of all parties to assist to beat down what is equally in the way of all. If such be the situation of the Duke of York with regard to the King's Party — a situation which may be fairly presumed to have had some effect against him — let us see how he is situated with respect to the present Opposition ; let us see if there be not some circumstances..., which seem to point out another origin to the malice of their persecution, than their zeal, or their apprehensions for the public service. Upon the death of Mr. Pitt, the late Opposition were called to a short-lived power and office. What was their con- duct ? — Why, considering every thing at their will, they rushed forward to seize every thing with the most indecent avidity. The 15 King was not to choose them ; but, in consideration of the state of the kingdom, they were to offer their services : they were not even to enter upon office till they had obtained a general carte blanche, — Never was Monarch approached, in the manner in which our venerable Sovereign was ap- proached by these men.
