Not to speak of democracy,
when from

Not to speak of pure democracy After what has here been seen, when men having any
tolerable insight into the nature of government in general and the
state of the country in particular are observed to say
that from democratic ascendency any detriment injury to social
the happiness of the prosperity, the tranquillity or the morality of the
people would be more likely to insure them from the contrivance
of the government in its present state, — that the impractical reader
may judge whether their saying so affords any grounds for believing
that they think so

See whether Grattan
could think as he
spoke. Grattan sitting
always for one of
Charlemonts two seats
acted consequently in
concert with him on
putting down radicalism
in Ireland

On the of 1783
Charlemont by adjournment
virtually defeated
the Convention with
which the prosperity
tranquillity and morality
of Ireland

and universally known instrument if every thing that was allow

of which Mr Hardy's life of Charlemont [+] [+] Plowdens History of Ireland
