ABSTRACT

In the second Number of the Reformists’ Register, published February 8th, a hasty sketch was taken of the conduct of the would-be Ministers of the country; and as Mr. BROUGHAM had thrust himself forward in the bad work; as he had evinced an unceasing desire to outdo every other person in the use of coarse and vulgar epithets, indiscriminately applied to those among the People who had taken an active part in the great duty of petitioning for Reform of Parliament, he was rebuked and cautioned. “There existed but one opinion through the country, in attributing the great pressure of taxation to the long and ruinous war in which it had been engaged. It is impossible, in the compass of a single Register, to compare Mr. BROUGHAM’S several speeches, and to draw the inferences which would naturally result from the comparison; the reader must do this for himself.
