Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Case of the Late Resignation: Set in a True Light The press has its paroxysms, it seems: it sometimes sleeps and sometimes rages: at least, it is thus it in political matters...Some little time ago we were all of us perfect quietists...Resigned to whatever might befall us, and so full of confidence in our State-Pilots, that we had not the least apprehension of any thing amiss to befall us. Or if any little symptom of perturbation appeared, it regarded chiefly the Terms of Peace; which we were so perfectly satisfied were in our own power, that all the difference amongst us was, about what delicious morsels we should prefer for our own gratification, and what Offal we should drop in mercy to our vanquished enemy. But now we are all in ferment again: every day the press teems with new productions of various and contradictory tendencies, and every Conversation begins or ends with controversy...So that, instead of having but one voice, and one purpose, every writer, nay, every talker, is become a leader, and expects to be acknowledged accordingly.
