In the meals time can only wean between the seclioe your letter of lite 20: h and the Nee day at night when you fixed to have an an swer; it must be intended to convey this idea. or what you say is nonsense, for otherwise it could not have induced yon to set off, or, 1111 your own words, to quicken your movements. You then proceed to oily, that a; you were going to Portsmouth, you . heard the story about the sedition. Now, Sir, do you beliew. that a single man in Great Britain, can avoid feeling the utmost indignationat the libel you have presumed to utter against the administration of justice in this country ? That a fear of being prosecuted for what you never said, was the occasion of your ahseoeding to France, (to revolutionary France, at this period). Has it never been suggested to you by your friend and ccnfidant, the traitor Fitzgerald, that if such takers were accused wh ose loyalty was not to be seduced, and that if under pretence of beim necessary witnesses, you could get 60 or 70 of the most loyal of the soldiers removed out of the way, that Portsmouth might be carried without difficulty. Did it never occur to your mind, that the accusation of sedition might relate to certain projects which you'mlght think very harmless, when concerted with the only honest officer in this regiments Dues your recollec tion furnish no clue to the source of your fears upon that occasion ? Does not the mind borrow eyes from the ap prehensions, and is not fear the usual companion of guilt Can you recollect ena norsrsT max who eve; lied fron► bis co miry under such circumstances? But " you had pro- raised Besland not to mention his name without his discharge."
