The gallant admiral instantly made the signal that It l ad “ tidings of the em ■niy and folfc-wed it upwitli such others, as communicated every necefiaiy arrange ment and difpofltion for the determined fight. With croudcd fail and favoring wind, his whole fleet bent tiieircourfe as they had been advised ; and from the bed calculations, it was judged, that he could not be more than thirty fix hours astern ol them—so that a general rxptUaiion, and {anguine hope, is ltill entcitaincd, that he will yet biing these (as they hoall tbemfi lves) “ Proud Sons of War,” whom thiir Cm lican tyrant vaults, “ Shah dry up the (knees of Belli fit pt os peri y , nd c nitriteec,” to battle ; and teach them, that Nilson and Viftory are lynonimcus !

The tongue of the flandereris a devour ing thing* which blackens whatever it touches ; which dirt£ls its fury on the good, equally as on the bad ; on the fa ertd, as on the profame /which, whenever it ragts, produces nothing but devastation and ruin ; turns.into vile allies what, on ly a moment btfo-e, appeared to us so precious and brilliant ; which blackens what it cor.fume ; and femetimts fuar kits ar.d delights, before it dtllroys Slander is an assemblage of iniquity; a secret pride, which difeovtrs to us the mote in our brother’* eye, but hides thr beam which is in our own ; a mean envy, moll commonly, if not always, found in charaflers deeply tarniflied with feme o thei (candalous, and notorious view ; k mean envy, which, hurt at the talents or propriety of others, nukes them the fubjifts of its censures, and (ludies to dim the (plendor of whatever cutfhines i'felf, a Jifguifed hatred, which ilfds in it speeches of the hidden n com of the heart; an unworthy duplicity, which praises to the face, and tears in peaces behind the back ; a fhameful levity, which had no command over itfelf, or words, and often facnfices both fortune and comfort to the imprudence of an araei sing converfatfon ; a dt liberate barbarity, which goes to pierce ycur absent biothcr ; a fcandal,- when you become a fubj.dk of shame and fin to those who lifftn to you ; efpe- 1 cially to those who condefend to repeat your dirty reports ; an iijuttice, when you ravilh from ycur brother what is Reared of all things in every enlightened judgment ref utation. Slander, as Leak ing as it is savage, is a reft'tfs evil, which diftuib3 society : spreads dissension through cities and coururies ; cifunites the drifted frier.dlhips ; is the fourceof hatred ar.d reverge ; creates, wherever it enters; didurbances and confufion ; and, every where, is an enemy to peace, com fert, and good breeding ; it is an evil full of deadly poison ; whatever flaws from it is infuted ; its praifts are poison cue ; ts applauses malicious ; its iilence criminal ; its geflures, motions and looks, full of venom, fitting on free of will the cause of nature. But, how does the slanderer commer.ce his dedruftive operations ? Why he whis pers something, in secret, in his family, or at his table, and, for a while, it lies (mo thered in its own alhes ; but afterwards he fans the fparke, by faying, with an ap prarance cf concern, that he heard what iie knows he fii (1 invented, and fuggeded, and,by paflingthro’ a diversity of mouths, it at quires the diape of reality, every one adding to it whatever his padion, inteted, difpefition of mind, or malignity, may hold cut to him as probable, or even pos sible ;in this way, that which at its birth, was only a private and impendent pleafan'ry, hut a simple idea, but a mali cious ccrjt'fture, will become a leriuus affair, a public and formal oilhonor, the fubjeft of everyconverfation ; thus, swind ling as it goes, the spark which was blown, \ almod innfible fiom the mouth of flan 1 der, at length burlts forth and overlpread* J citii sand countries. • To take up a reproach, on good au- { thority, agair.ft a vile charafter, with out a proper call, is mean and criminal ; but to invent, or take up a reproach, on inadequate or no grounds, and aguinft a virtuous character, is a crime which language is infuffictent to define ; ne” verthelefs, it is the upright who are now become the general wHI of the malignity of public discourses ; and we may fafely fay, that virtue gives birth to more cen sures in the world than vice. Does not your slanderous attacks on a good man often proceed from a secret jealousy ? do not his talents, fortune, credit, ibation, or character, hurt you more than his pre tended, or real faults ? Would you find him so fit a fubjec.l for censure, had lie fewer of those qualities which exalt him above you? Would you experience such picafure in exposing him, did not the world find qualities in him/both valua ble and grade-worthy ? I do not add, that tbefe reports perhaps originated from people of no character ; pci Tons of neither reputation nor confiquence to convince ; and the more yru are exalted in the world, tl e more ought you to be circumspect in the affairs of your bro ther ; the more ought a noble decency to render you reserved on a fubjedf that respedfs his chtfradfer. The diecourfes o’ the vulgar are soon forgot ; they expire in coming into toe world ; but the words of the great never full in vain ; the pub lic is always a faithful echo, either to the praises they bellow, or to the censures | they allow themiclves to utter. Vim, my brethren, whom tank txaits above o- I tilers, fliould present a melancholy and j fev.re counto.ar.ee, a filer.ee of difappro bation and indignation to every dctarr.i- . lory discourfc ; tor the crime is exactly equal between the malignity cf the fpea ktr, and -he fatiskclion of the hearer. Let us surround our tars with thorns, that they may not he acciflioi; to poi fonous infinuatioiis ; tliat is to fay, let us cot only (hut them againfl tiufe words of blood a; and gall, but let us re’u'r them; on theit author in a zianner criui.l'.y bit- 1 ter and mortify tug.
