It is in those assemblages gaiety and magnificence that the mind deluded by a thousand entice ments, and tormented with a thousand dhsire^, is so often bewildered and led astray from the paths of virtue and happiness. Each allurement kindles a desire, and each desitc wfierf nofgratificd, becomes a source of pain and discontent. If is thetc tha^ if we are astonished at the inge nuity of man’s arts and inventions, we are also disgusted at the degene racy of his manners and morals. There we see a motley Coalition of grandeur and meanness, pf #pplence and poverty. Here, he enjoys all the luxuries and comforts of li/e; occupies stately mansions, is honour ed, respected and admired: there he wanders without home and without friends, destitute, almost naked and in want-; every where rejected, over looked and1 despised! In one place exalted as a God, in another depress ed as a brut^t on the whole, a scene of confusion and strife; striving to impose upon those by whom he is im posed ; endeavouring to attain inde- , odence while he is rushing to his rui j ; flattering the band that rivets the shackles of his servitude.—On the contrary! .in the country he enjoys more peace, jnorfe'Jibcrtytend more independence. 4 He meets with less inequality and, pride. 'He is more healthy and robust. His pleasures are coarse, but pure and unrestrain ed. He has more, leisure fof reflec tion, and consequently better oppor tunities of being wise. His anxie ties are not many; his cares few. To improve and cultivate his farm; to administer a support to his family are his chief and sole concerns. A provident husbandman, ap 'honest citizen, a good father, he has little to fear, from the frown! “of fortune or the-severity of the laiv. A little in* dustry will supply hi* waats j wltttie 'moderation ’will render him\ happy.
