(4) Charlemont treachery
At p 255 comes the occasion on which and the time at
which the Volunteers become that which should not have
been, and Lord Charlemont consequently and necessarily the
adversary of their wis declared wishes and endeavours. The
occasion is the call for parliamentary reform.
And from henceforth it is that the existence of a demand for parliamentary
reform is alternately asserted and denied, or
asserted and denied in the same breath, and the thing itself as in At the Whig
reform Speeches and Lord
Erskines pamphlet
or the what are to merit crown
better the their Morning
Chronicle paragraphs
sometimes a good sometimes a bad thing, or a good and a
bad thing at the same time: a most unsatiable
were it not for the simple key — that that a fri which there was
demand for is a reform which shall be inefficient or serviceable with
relation to the aristocratical interest and which by force is purchased
votes shall merit the subj and and a check the people are the aristocratical
interest being life
where it is or sit
in ascendency over
the monarchical

Volunteers army and contributed more than any event whatsoever
to shake that institution to its utmost foundation". In a namely
word by the hand of Lord Charlemont himself: for this we shall
find openly assured both by his biographer and by himself.
