Book Description
Excerpt from The New Constitution In times prosperous at home and peaceful abroad, the people of England have not desired of their rulers any change in the system of their representation. In domestic distress, or with foreign revolution, on the contrary, the clamour for such an experiment has been usually raised, but has hitherto been silenced by patient firmness on the part of the government. During last November, these two stimulants combined to produce in the country an unusual agitation: but the accession of the Whigs to office soothed the excitement, the gentry with the middle classes quieted the disorders of the southern counties, and the Belgic revolution threw fresh employment into the manufacturing towns.
