1818 Novr. 21. F.1 §.7
Whigs and Revolution

§.7. Uselessness and mischievousness of such talk to the cause
§6. Such talk useless to the people.
of the people.

If so it were that the cause of the people were as well served by
this sort of profession as by any other that could be substituted to
it altogether immaterial would it be what the inducement where
that gave birth to it. But in no degree is the cause of the people
served: it is rather disserved by it: if with relation to the cause of
the people it has any effect that effect is disserviceable. In no
shape but that in which it gave birth to that revolution does the
disease of misrule require for its remedy any constitutional
change: in no shape but that in which at and by that same revolution
it was administered does any such disease require
any remedy or admitt of any that upon the whole is a beneficial
one. Such are the Notions which if not directly advanced
are at any rate insinuated and by being represented as implied
inculcated.

Well then the sort and degree of misrule which gave birth
to the revolution is it the only one that can require a Constitutional
change? That in that case the disease was bad
enough to require such a change will not be disputed by any
party: neither by peoples men nor by Whigs, nor even by
Tories: for had it not been for such a change the Tories
would not have been where they are.
