'flies, in order to corrupt the subjects, those at the helm are careful to cherish the People's avarice by keeping op the spirit of gaming among them. Such was the craft of the Cabinet in Franc. andl Holland, and which has been outdone of late by this' enaatry, though it was brat practised in Venice— Not to mention lotteries, which are so fiequent at Venice, it Is e fart, that daring the whole Carnival many public Bidet,/ are opened for games of chance; bet what will appear more extraordinary, at every 1 table a Member of the Great Council, in his gown, lits as the banker. By this artifice people are also prevented from knowing and rreecting on their situation and condi tion. Whilst the desire of acquiring fame barns is the breast of a few wee, and they are greedy after glory alone, liberty is secure. They stand erishaken at daggers, disheartened by no obstacles, and re. strained by no consideration, less fearing the moat horrid Indere then the opprobrium of betraying their coontry tea tyrant. Witness year Svontvs, your Prlmi•er.s. your Rossaxis, your WALLACII.-- King% accordingly, prompted or aided by their ac cursed Ministers, lose no opportunity of changing i that object of glory. *or fame, which the Public dirpenses, they substitute honours, eih;ch they alone , distribute; and instead of making dignities the re-1 I I ward of services done the patria, they make honours I or pensions the Salary of services tendered to the Crown (witness the renegade Bunn.). Thus such creatures are covered both with infamy and marks of dignity, and these marks of mote are soon vs. I Ned at the espence of merit, video, and talents. Hence wise two opposite effects: men of abj.vt principles seek after dignities, alto of an elevated mind despise them. Disgraced by the use they are made of, and the persons on whom they ate be stowed, to become worthy of them is no mote the pursuit of worthy souls.
