:smd happiness of thousands, and that if immediate relief be not given, some dreadful calamity will be the result of the present system. The only way, then to prevent the evil from extending, is to reduce the taxes ; the next object is to give relief, if possible, to those who are in a starving conditioned dying for these comforts without which life cannot be prolonged. From private charity, I fear little can be expected. The meeting at the London Tavern is arr instance of this, and ot the hollowness of their intentions. "There were men present, whose individual incomes amounted to more than the whole sum raised : Aye, and these incomes some of them, paid by the people too. The wh ile sum would not have been sufficient to support the distressed inhabitants ot London live days, on a moderate calculation It is not from the hand of charity that any permanent good can be expected it is from the hand of justice ; from the united voice ot hundreds and thousands of men, who demand their rights (and who are in fact praying for existence) with a degree of moderation that is only equalled by their steadiness and perseverance in the great cause. Until a reform takes place in parliament, the present system will not be abandoucd ; and, therefore, the pressure of taxation will continue probably be increased, if possible ; and thus those who are now living by their own exertions, will shortly be reduced to indigence, and thus the great mass of human misery increased. It is a feet not generally known, and one that makes a man shudder to think of it, and sufficient to make an Englishman hang down his head in sorrow, that such is the condition of the poor, that the mothers of many families support their children and their husbands by the prostitution of their persons. Is this the end of the glorious war ? Is this its consummation ? Oh, shame ! shame ! There is something in the characters of Englishmen, that distinguishes them from almost every otiier nation. An honest pride, an openness of heart, and particularly a fondness for their homes, and a great affection for their wives and children. What must be the feel, ings of a man who is supported, and whose children are fed by the prostitution ot his wife r It is a most unnatural state of society & speaks volumes as to the star- of this unhappy country. Weii might you say that crimes increase in proportion to the increase of taxation. The fact just mentioned is a most striking instance of the truth of the observation, producing the committal of a crime which, to Englishmen, is odious, and which must appear horrid to every man who lus either a head to think, or a heart to

feel. It is introducing a disease of the loathsome kind into families, makes a brothel of the poor man's house, and subverts every moral principle. I should not have troubled you with this letter, had I not feit my. self imperiously cabled upon by
