Book Description
Excerpt from The British Tocsin, or Proofs of National Ruin The Jargon of courts, and the fophifiry of prie'fis, have fo often milled the general mind, that it is neceilary plain truth and common fenfe fllould at laft create a revolution in the human heart, and make the recedes pf intellect the receptacles of civic virtue. Happily for the world, the period is°arrived that neither quotation or precedent bias the writers of the day; modern genius appears erriulous of originality, and acts independantly from its own feelings; by this means, the intellectual eye difcovers beauties \unobferved before, and principles and virtues vegitate into being, nura tured only by the rays of nature.
