Against radicalism
as above, unless the
word moderate
no reason found for a
long time but bellowing
bashing or inarticulately yelling
upon paper:
1. On Tory side. subversion
of all order &c
2. On Whig side "absurd,
"visionary and
"senseless"..."wild and
"impracticable &c
in Morn. Chron. 22
Nov. 1819. "senseless
"scheme of reform which
"if realized, would"
"plunge us into anarchy
and ruin."
Against radical reform as above explained, unless it w
the abovementioned word moderate be regarded as a reason
I had for a long time been unable to discover any nearer approvals
to "reason than a sort of language, discourse which in writing
presents the is to written reasoning what bellowing is
bashing or an inarticulate yell is to reason presented in the form
of spoken language word of mouth discourse
On the Tory side of Honourable and Right Honourable
Houses and other honourable places — subversion of all order &
subversion of the Constitution
On the Whig side, absurd, visionary and senseless ...
wild and impracticable. . and so forth: and in the principal Whig
Newspaper such as every now and then the agreement with
the Tories is to produce passages such as these . . "senseless
schemes of reform which if realized would plunge us into anarchy and ruin"+ + Morn. Chronicle

Sole exception, Edinb.
Review. But there
the usefulness of radicalism
is inwardly recognized: Revison
an advocate who argues
against his own opinion.
Reasons for this are
prepared: but the length
and unavoidable length
attention being more
demanded of for other subjects:
necessitates postponement
if not relinquishment
mean time the
most important parts not
virtually answered in
Preliminary Explanations
One exception indeed I should have made, and that
is
the exception afforded though in appearance/then rather than in reality by the Edinburgh Review But
from the moment I put it in here which has not been
very lately it has appeared to me that amongst those
by whom the necessity, as well as usefulness of parliament radical
reform has been inwardly recognized the very ingenious author
of the article in question many well be numbered
Not only in bar but in petitions advocates have their reasons
for arguing against their own opinion: and such in that
instance in my own of the has been the case
The reasons consideration in which this opinion of mine is grounded was produced I
am not altogether unprepared to give. But the length to which
an examination of that sort would not inconsiderably have to open
itself, coupled with the consideration of the more pressing demand
presented for attention by other subjects here produced a the conviction
of the necessity of of not omitting altogether
the of any such task. In the mean time any
person who will take the trouble of comparing with the train of enquiry
then brought forward, that which may be found in the Preliminary Explanation
Explanation to the
abovementioned Draught
of a Bill, will find
that on the most important
topics the reasoning on
that article of the Reason
has not been left
altogether unberated.
