Founded upon a tuluva ted fenfibiiity, it disposes us to do, to our fellow-creatures, all the good in our j ow ;r fes effects are love, benefiuencc, generoh ty, indulgence, and compaifion. When this virtue is confined within the limits of the society, to which we belong, its effe#* are love of our country, paternal lov'*, flip, piety, conjugal tenderness, friencifhip, as feftion for our relations and fellow-citi zens. a.

The laws of the realm, he thought, vere only obligatory on the people; and, as the national faith was inconsistent with his own creed, he deemed the private ties of his perverted conscience a futficient reason for offering violence and iniult to 'he religiousfentiments of the community. He was encouraged in his views by the i.' r ong d~c ! ara;ions of unreserved obedi * ce ai a blind fubmiflion, which the To nes. du. ~.g their temporary triumph over (he Whigs, had laviflied on the crown ; •ut, when he had invaded the constitution, uid aimed at the subversion cf the protel iant eftablifltir.ent, he ficvuid that those (rom whom he had expected a full fubjec ion to his will, were more inclined to '■raftife the maxims of their adve. faries, 'an to foi’ow the servile leflbns which Odd been iiicly inculcated by ihemlelves. In his exterior demeanor, james was courteous and polite; but he had not that ,iat eful add refs, or that suavity of man •ers, which diftinguilhed his brother.

To Mr. I AM so well acquainted with your cna rafter, that I make no doubt of you, receiving this letter with cold indifference, I it least, if not with indignant flight; but, I fir, I ;,(k not now your immediate atten- ! tion to it—your mmd, I trust, has not loft ull its fenfibiiity, and there will be a time, « hen this letter may aft as a moniA: till (hen, what you have done will appear to >e no crime; and you will continue to ex 'end your criminality, until to do wrong, (hall become your study, your pleasure, and, as it were, your duty. If the many vices, w hich degrade your charafter, leave you uncertain of my meaning bv this let ter, know, that the purpose of it is, tc an nounce the death of mii's . whom 'ou basely betrayed to shame and dis honor. Yes, fir: this n'ght fl*e lies in her grave, a monument of your infamy, and an ex ample of the noble pride of virtue, thata*- iowc not its poffeflbr to live in shame. ; Os her dilhonor you hav- the wretched ment—may you also have a fliare in her contrition ! In vour boyish years, I remember, vou bade fair for goodiefs and wisdom | fonal accompliflm.ents fetmed to embel i li(h mental worth; but the influence of < bad company, and the power of a latent t bad disposition, soon changed ycur con- 1 dust, and cftxblifh your charafter.— < •Vealth, and external advantages furnifh- t ed you with means; and vou thought it < argued a want of spirit, not to employ i theie, in therutn of innocence.
