1819 Decr. 1
Radicalism not dangerous
2. Hardy pp. 196.7. "The content, the satisfaction
that sat on every face, and, I may add, the moral
improvement, that formed one of the purest sources
of that satisfaction, can not be effaced from the
memory. Let those who sneer at the volunteer af
institution, point out the days, not merely in the
Irish, but any history, when decorous manner kept
more even pace with the best charities of life,
when crime found less countenance, and law more reverence.
This state of affairs lasted, it is true, but a
short period. It has passed away like a dream. The
mutability of all institutions every one feels; but
few will acknowledge their own follies, which so
often produce, or accelerate, such sad vicissitudes;
and from folly we were not more exempt than
others."

3 Hardy 198 Another cause contributed to national success. It had been
already partially displayed,- the good conduct of the people
If the kingdom was menaced from abroad, it was at
home in a state of unexampled security. Private property
private peace, were every where watched over by the volunteers
with a filial and pious care. MInisters, or rather
those who wish to render themselves acceptable to any Ministry
by their mean subserviency, could not have styled the
volunteer associations as, most fatally, they styled the Americans,
a banditte; or, had they been silly enough to
have attempted to proceed against them as such, they would
have transformed themselves into the most intemperate
imbecile banditti, that history could contemplate.
