.'s time had always opposed him in everything he proposed to do, and who, of course, during that time, affected to be very inimical to Popery--this divine might well be suspected of having a motive equally creditable for writing against the Papists, as that which induced him to write for them, as soon as his patron, who eventually did something more for him, had espoused their cause; but what motive, save an honest one, can the present writer have for expressing an abhorrence of Popery?
He is no clergyman, and consequently can expect neither benefices nor bishoprics, supposing it were the fashion of the present, or likely to be the fashion of any future administration, to reward clergymen with benefices or bishoprics, who, in the defence of the religion of their country, write, or shall write, against Popery, and not to reward those who write, or shall write, in favour of it and all its nonsense and abominations.
"But if not a clergyman, he is the servant of a certain society, which has the overthrow of Popery in view, and therefore," etc.

This assertion, which has been frequently made, is incorrect, even as those who have made it probably knew it to be.

He is the servant of no society whatever.
