Radicalism not dangerous

II Experience
(7) II. Ireland
After Grattans Speech

After the compleat groundlessness of the assertion has been
then demonstrated what will they now say if they say
any thing?

Will they say that Great Britain is not Ireland

That
That the Irish associated Volunteers are not all of
them without property

That America is not Britain?

Well then suppose all this allowed then what
would it prove?

At the utmost nothing more than this namely
that virtually universally suffrage and not in the
first instance to a single experiment.

But against seeing if what would it
prove?

What against virtual equality of suffrage
What against annuality of suffrage
What against suffrage, as if that
would not entail then payment of assessed taxes to
a certain amount or some other evidence of property
so long as it was not limited to landed property or
any other such narrow shape.

No: the logic would still be there. Universal
suffrage would produce destruction of property:
therefore no other scheme of representation that would
prevent the ruling few from to their interest
the interest of the subject many is endurable.
