Présentation de l'éditeur
View bl), of a dceply seated and coniirmed literary disease, which requires something like a surgical operation to make even its symptoms apparent. Not being confined to one country more than to another, but general in its application, the writer trusts that it will meet with the indulgence which a candid statement of facts merits, when conforming to the truth and within the experience ofthe general public. Specific diseases of the body politic are so numerous that a constitutional reformer does not know where to begin. Is it in the adulteration of food and drugs, in commercial irregularities, in the practice of the courts, in medicine, in oflicial appointments, in church husbandry, or in municipal and parliamentary routine?

Vhat is contended for here is, that the rule of conduct should have the divine sanction, as a common standard.
