To ghtthi from injurit^ —to deprive no man Cf tl c advantages .ne enjoys—to give to ever, one what is due to him—to do good—to contribute to the happiness of otn--—and alfifteach other—this is being * uous. Virtue can only be what contril tre to the utilitv, welfare, and security of 1 ,*cietv The firft of all social virtues s to fmani ty; it is the abridgment of all thi retf: taken in its most extensive fignifi a on, it is that sentiment, which gives ever inch vidual of ouripec ies a right to 01, hearr and affetffions. Founded upon a cultiva ted sensibility, it disposes us to do, to our fellow-creatures, all the good inour j.owsr It's effects are love, beneficience, generofi ty, indulgence, and compallion. V*/hen this virtue is confined within the limits ol the focietv, to which we belong, its effects are love of our country, paternal love, fiij piety, conjugal tenderness, friencifhip, as feAion for our relations and fello .’/-citi zens. - i -'' Strength and adfiviiy ought to be rank ed among the social virtues, became the) defend focietv, or establish its security ; and their effe£!s are magnanimity, cour age, patience, moderation and temperance.

He was encouraged in his views by the i>ong d-c'arations of unreserved obedi- ce at j mind fnbmiffinn, which the To ries, du....g their temporary triumph over the Whigs, had laviihed on the crown ; ■ut, when he had invaded the constitution, md aimed at the subversion of the protef iant eliablifliir.em, he found that those from whom he had exptfleu a full fubjec tion to his will, were more inclined to 'iraftile the maxims of their adve.faties, tan to follow the I‘ervile leflbns which Had been J&ifdy inculcated by ihemlelves. In his f’Mterior demeanor, James was courteous and polite; but he had not that ,ra'. eful address, or that suavity of man ners, which diflinguifhed bis brother.
