VULGAR LANGUAGE \A proof oj low breeding. limn ode ft words admit but this defence, ! Cl That want of inodefty is want offenfe.” That the language which peo ple make ulc ofin their conver sation, is a criterion by which we may form an accurate judg- | inent of their minds, is a truth mat cannot be controverted. From the abundance (f the heart the mouth heaketb. The cduca- J Ji tion they have received, the company they have kept, may be cafily determined from it. As man is an imitative being, his manners, habits and language, J kJ O' are formed from thofe with whom he is moft converfant. If we fee aperfon vulgar and inde cent in his language, no ftrong <er proof than this can be adduc ed of his having been familiar with the profligate. Whatever airs of polltcnels or refinement of manners he may aflame, if his language does not corrcfpond therewith, the veil is eaftly feen through, and the vulgar heart Hands confciftd. No token can be given more ftrong, that a perfon has been low bred, than filling every fentence of his con verfation with indecent and pro fane expreffions; and Nothing can be more difgufting to one, whole cars have been accuftom ed to pure and decent language. Eut, where it appears ftill morh difgufting, is, when it comes from the females, that beautiful part of the creation, the pride and boaft of man; who •—formed by nature to be ad mired, and to difFufe happincf* and pleafure amongft mankind, are, in confequence of the fupe rior refinement of their natures, emphatically ftyled thb Fair, I lay, when they lay alkie the foftnefs and delicacy of their fex, which juftly excites the Jove and admiration of ours ; when they divell themfelves of that dignity of manners, fo facinatlng to the of fenftbility, and ftoop to 1 lift vulgarity of a nCedlels oath, < fill eveiy ft ntence of their con versation with profane oprefli ens, and, on the moft trifling oc casion make life of tht Irevc j renrial name of their maker j how difrcfpedlful do they an pcari admiration is then con verted into contempt i andthtife captivating properties of their I nature lofe their power of; leaf- • ing, and appear as a deceitful veil to cover a mind deft irate of j that delicacy which is the great- | eft ornament of the fex, and j which has the power of irrififta- ! bly exciting emotions of ex quifite pleafure in thofe who behold it. Profanity in either fex juftly merits coptcmpt; but in the Fair, our language wants a word to exprefs its bafenefs. It is degrading beyond expreflion. From a Philadelphia paper . WONDERFUL WORKS OF PRO VIDENCE. A Angularnon-defeript animal has, within a few weeks, fcveral times made its appearance near Northumberland town, in this flare, which has been the fubjeft of much fpeculative enquiry in thefc parts. The extraordinary formation of this wonderful crea ture, as repreferned by a nmn | her of refpcctabie inhabitants of that place, v, ho have feen it, is certainly aftonifliing to every one, particularly fo to thofe ac quainted with natural hiftory, and furniflics the mind with a variety of conjectures, feme of which, perhaps, not very favo rable to the human fpccics.-—lt j is laid to be about 5 feet in j height, and moves ereCE; it has | a more perfect human face than | any other animal of the brute | creation hither to fpokenof. The head is crowded with hair, which falls regular over the forehead, near to the eye brows; its neck and breaft are bare, but down wards is covered entirely with a reddifh caft. Its arms and hands appear perfectly like thofe of a man, excepting nails, which are fimilar to claws of beads; bur the feet appear perfcCt. It has a very long tail, Vvhich it winds round its body when running. An attempt was made to catch it a fhort time fince, by three gentlemen on horfeback, one of which was near enough to ftrike it with his whip, but taking down a fteep hill, the gentlemen were obliged to alight to purfue it, when it made its efcape. We hear a thoufand dollars is offer ed for this animal alive. A curious anecdote is related of the Prince ofHeffe. Having flopped at an inn, the fign of which was the Grey Afs y the landlord folicitcd and.obtained the honor of putting the vifage | of his high neb in the room of the afs. A rival inn-keeper, feeing i the celebrated fign of the Grey Afs removed, bethought himfelf of adopting it, which had the effect to bring him all the other inn-keeper’s cuftomers. The latter, finding He had done a very fooiifh thing, law no remedy for the matter, but writing over the head of the prince-—77a/V Is .he original Gray Afs, G E O R G I A, Wellington County.
