Long and Forgery
12 May 1802
A very perfectly natural conception certainly—but one in which, at the very next word
will be found to require immediately come to be discarded like the preceding
one. My authority for affixing to the sort of act, the
proof of which in the case of Mr Long has been seen already
(I believe) to be but too clear, the appellation of
forgery—or to speak more shortly my authority for accusing Mr Long of
forgery is no less an authority than that of Lord Glenbervie.
My warrant for writing this speaking of that Noble
Lord as affixing to the sort of act in question the
appellation in question, is contained in a speech
pamphlet published by himself the noble Lord himself under
the title of the Speech of the Right Honourable Sylvester
Douglas in the House of Commons 23d April 1799, relative to a Union with Ireland.
The individual act, for which the application in question
appeared to him presented itself to this noble and eminently learned
person, as an apt and proper denomination, consisted in the omitting
in a modern edition of the "famous pamphlet of Molyneux
called the Case of Ireland" a passage expressive
of his wishes in favour of the want now so happily accomplished.
"And here" (says his Lordship) "I
"can not help noticing a very singular fraud, or negative
"sort of forgery, committed in an edition of Molyneux; [a] work
"which was printed in Dublin in the year 1783. In
"that edition the words and this I believe we should
"be willing enough to embrace: but this is a happines
we can hardly hope for;" "were totally omitted."
