JN/UIVE LAND. BREATHES there a man with sod so dead Who never Id himself hath said, this is my most, my native land ? Whose heart has nc er within him turn'd, As home his footsteps he hath turn'd, From wand'ring on a foreign strand ? if such there hr cat he, go, marl him well s For him no minstrel raptures swell, /high though his titles, proud ms name, Soundless his wealth, as wish can claim, Despise those titles, power and pdf, i The wretch concenter'd all in self, i Living, shall forfeit fair renown, And, double dying, shall go down, 2 So the vile dust from whence h: sprung, ! Unfitted, unhonor'd, and unsung ! EXTRACT FROM BLAIR. The self denials of Vice, greater than those of 7 ‘ Finns. TROUGH'no condition of httenn ate is £te? from uneasiness, yet-it must he allowed; that ‘ the uneasiness belonging to a filiful course, ;s tar ! gnater than what attends a course of well-do- | jnjr. If we a.e weary of the labors of virtue, j %sl‘ may be assured that the world, whenever we j try the’ exchange, will lay upon us a tv uch hea- load. It is the outfi.de, outy, of a uccnlvous life, which is gay and-finding. Witnin i- con ceals toil, and trouble, and deadly sorrow. For vice pollens human Huppuiefs in the ipring, oy introducing difordcr into heart. i ho.a ruffians which it feerns to indulge, .t iceos V'ith imperfect gratifications ; and thereby It lengthens them for preying in the end, cn their, unhappy viAims. t: It is a great mifcaka to imagine, that the pain of fclf-denisj is confined to He who follows the world ss snucli as ne wio foI~ lows Christ, mull “ taae up h.s cross, and to him afluredly, it will prove a more oppressive turden. Vice allows all our paffion3 to reign j uncontrolled ; and where ear n cla'ius to .e su perior, it is impofiible to gratify all. the pre dominant tie fire can only be indulged at the ex pense of its rival, No mortifications widen vir tue exacts aie more Lsrcre than which ambition imposes upon the love or case, price up on intcrcil, and cbvctoufnefs upon vanity. Self-denial, therefore, belongs, in common, to vice and virtue ; but with this remarkable differ- | ence, that the passions which virture requires us to mortify it tends to weaken ; whereas, those j which vice obliges us to deny* it at the fame j time strengthens. The cnc diminishes toe pain j of felf-denial, by moderating the demand of pas- j fion; the other increases. it by rendering-those demands iinocriotis and violent. Y hat diftrefl s, that occur in the calm life of virtue, can be compared to those tortures, which remerfe of confcier.ce infiidb on the wicked; to those se vere humiliations arising from guilt combined with misfortune, which fink them to the cull t ; to those violent agitations of shame and an ap pointment, which foraetimes drives them to the ; mod fatal extremities arid make them abhor their exigence J How often in the midlt o those difafteroua fuuations, into which their crimes have brought them, have tuny execrated the fedu£Uon3 of vice ; artd with bitter regret, looked back to the day in which they art. fco> fook the path of inncceuce 1” Mg . m to Dollars Reward ..-L ABSCONDED *4 JWi from my yan t usmon - / tng, w 'thoui the fmaii ’•Sßr JjMsk • est provocation, my E T egro F*H° W Haac, well known in this ciiy knowledge of him, the .following deTcription o! his peifon and ap pearance may be necclTary : he is 26 years oi age, abou; 5 feet 6 01 7 inches in height, wears his hair very nicely platted, is a great beau i:i his dress, effects to lofty carriage and Brut, (peaks bad En.liO;, and having been cv/ned by a Phvfician talks much of ins knowledge ol medicine and Rrigerv ; he :s a very likely fellow’, tells an artful *nd piaufible story, and has a , and urn look when fpeakmg or fp-ken to j he is an excellent house fervatu, and pro. tends to know a little of every meduni * cl proitiTioit, .1 wi!i give the above reward to art person apprehending him in this City o County, Fifty Dollars upon pn o‘ ol hi being.carried away in any boa* or veffe fr un this ftrte, and Fifty Dollars upoi his being brought to me from, or fecurei in any prifun, beyond the limits of th flats.
