Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Letter to the People of England: On the Neccessity of Putting an Immediate End to the War, and the Means of Obtaining an Advantageous Peace It is inconceivable, to Slaves of other Nations, in what Degree every Individual in this Kingdom may justly boast himself to have a Share, as well in giving Laws to his Country, as in the immediate Administration of its Government. The Sovereign, indeed, makes Choice of his Ministers, and the People have their Representatives in Parliament; but neither, by the Allegiance they pay the one, nor the Confidence they place in the other, do Britons give up this natural Right, to be still Masters of their own Properties, and Guardians of their own Liberties. The recent Experience of a few Years past may furnish us with striking Instances, how loud the Voice of the People is heard in England, both on the Throne and in the Senate; Instances, that prove the vast Importance of its being distinguished from the impetuous Clamour of a factious Multitude, by its Conformity to the more sober Dictates of Reason and Truth. Non omninò temerè fit, quod vulgò dictilant. It is to you; therefore, my Fellow-Countrymen, and not to any of those great men, whose Importance depends, in so eminent a Degree, on the Conformity of their Conduct to the Voice of the Public, that I conceive it necessary to address myself at this Juncture.
