EPISTLE.
Fellow Scribblers,
W E kiv w the goodness of our cause
Deserve* from human kind applause ;
Yet be it still our farther aim,
To gain the praise we dure not claim. (
, The best design, if ill pursued,
Must seem at last but to intrude ;
, Then let at once both means and end,
To some great object always tend.
Without ono spark of native tire,
To woo the Mu>e none ought aspire j
fhe tuneless hue will but disgrace
Your rumbling pen, thus out of place.
Tis true the press, submissive still,
Stands ready, waiting for your will ;
Yet why, impatient, out of breath,
Tins noble steed, thus run to death.
In politics I would advise,
Amidst these trembling times, be wise ;
l'his needful lesson learn with care,
Of all extravagance beware.
The federal side, no doubt, is right,
Tis [Mov’d by reasons strong and bright ;
Forc’d arguments we do not want,
Plain common feelings these supplant.
Then why to trick should we descend
So great an interest to defend ?
Scurrility, abuse, and all,
That by still harder names we call,
Be left to those, so closely press’d,
To hold a ground, the good detest,
i lr ough honest means, a cause tike ours
Will stand, sustain’d by hi "her pothers.
If sweet Religion be your theme,
Avoid here also each extreme ;
Let not enthusiasm take place,
Of solid reason, and of grace i
Let no distorted thought, cr speech
Thy native, sober wits impeach ;
For know, the world stand* gaping wide,
For fair occasions to decide.
Now turn the scale, that we may see
The point, in which we best agree.
If not allowed to rise loo high,
Reflect, that danger still is nigh »
’Tis possible, we grant, to sink.
Too low, and stand on ruin’s brink.
Then seek the middle path to gain,
And this invincibly maintain.
Whatever subject rouze your pen,
The weapon use like able men.
Let prudent age, and vivid youth
Become the champions of t uth.
Let talents, learning, zeal unite
Their various, yet consistent light.
The important secret to reveal
Of private good, and public weal.
Correct, ana classical, and strong,
Not stifly prun’d, nor over long, - j
Each sentence should, with ease, convey :
Precisely what we mean to say.
Now, tho* the hemisphere ofsen.se.
With these our toils might well dispense ;
Anti though our literaly late,
Condemn us to a low estate ;
Yet who can tell, but future years,
As long as yonder bl i/e appears,
Amidst * jealous world'* disdain,
Shall prove, we have not liv’d in vain.

lint whatever msy be your future callings
and stations in hie, 1 hope you will ever
maiulcil yourselves the linn and decided
ti ic ltd* Of religion. In every station and re- I
lull , this Will be found the one thing need
J..:. Viewing it as the cement of soxiety,
• entii.1 to social order and happiness, aiid
the only tiope; lor immortality, 1 t»ust you
will venerate its ilislii.li.ions, .«spect its or
dinances, and ay your example and council
recommend it to die attention of others.
Let me pai ucularly guard you against
he poison ot infidelity and scepticism,
which pervades society, and diffuses its in.
ftuencc* through every part. It assumes
various forms, presents itself under many
antul disguises, and it. often concealed un
der the iaiivst pretences. Under the g.ab
ot candour, chanty, and liberally ofsenti
iiimus, this poison is secretly diffused
limsighout eiviy department in society.
Ciuam against its iuflueuce. Kntertain a
saiueti respect lor the eternal £t unalterable
o-ii ga.ion of tiuih Spurn with abliur
• ence that vain philosophy, which endea
vours to spread doubt and darkness on every
thing sacred. Study the sacred scrip
tures : examine ml uidtre for voui selves.
It is a fact disgracelui to infidelity, that few
or IK cc of the rejectors of revelation have
ver examined Uie truth for themselves.
Consult the generality of that miserable
class, who dcspiic the sabbath and religious
institutions ; who sneer and scoff at sacred
things. Aafc tlieui if they have examined
the scriptures for the wise Ives, with a serious
desire ot understanding and ascertaining
[ tlieu1 troth ; tney must answer, No. Asii
them if they have adopted any substitute for
the religion ot the bihA which they reject ;
they must answer, Nj. Ask tiieni why they
disregard, i idicun., ana scorn what is deem
i ed so important by others—wnv they have
j rejected the religion of tiie»r lathers ; they
have uothitig to answer, or will answer you
w ith a jest, talk about priestcraft &. hypocri.
sy, or take shelter under the authority of
some great or fashionable name. Gfailcrea*
vuics founding to rationality, these fceruin*
ly aie the most contemptible: Even the
grcai apostle of infidelity, Paine, unblush*
ingly acknowledged, when attacking the
script ires, that he hud njt read them, or
teau them only worn a boy. 1 repeat, then;
examine the scriptures ; read them again ;
taxe nothing upon trust ; and it you should
ever ue so unhappy as to reject revelation,
u t it nut be said you did it without exami
oa' ion.
\ou wif! often hear the ignorant rejectors
of Christianity, who take tilings on trust,
boast of toe authority of great names.
. iieie are good authorities on the otho * lie
—-ti*e greatest and bust 01 men. But »n ts
ti mating the force of this authority on tidier
: ^>ide we should carefully consider li e moral
j character ol each. Look into the page ui
j iiitiury ; Lvk aiuund y ou *n Uie w.r»o, and
then say what is and lias been the ctiarac
ter of the enemies of religion.
The morals of Rochester and Wharton
need no comment. Woolston was a gross
blasphemer. Blount solicited his sister-i:i
law to marry him, and being refused, shot
himself. Fiadal was infamous for vice in
general, and a total wont of principle, j
Voltaire, in a letter stdl remaining, reques- i
ted his friend D’Alembert to tell for him
a direct and palpable lie ; D’Alembert, in
his answer, informed him lie had done so. j
He also professed to believe the Catholick
religion, although at the same time tie
doubted the existence of a God. Rous
seau lived fo" years in habitual adultly.
Hume died as a fool diet!) ; the day before
h.s death he spent in a pitiful and ..fiected
unconcern about tills tremendous subject;
playing at whist, reading Lucian’s dia
logues, and making several silly attempts at
wit concerning his interview with Charon,
the heathen ferryman of Hues. Collins,
though he had no belief in Christianity, yet
qualified himself for civil otlice by partaking
of the sacrament. Shaftesbury did the
Same, and the same is done by hundreds of
infidels to this day. Godwin was not only a
L wd character, out the unblushed advocate
of ew dness. As to T. P-ute, it is well
known that he was a pioiane vveaier,
drunkard and debauchee. And if we look (
around and mark the characteis of those a- •
rnonj ourselves, who reject revelation and |
ridicule its institutions, it will be impossi- j
)>le to find one good character, infulds them- ‘
selves being judges ; nut one wuo is not o
pcnly prolan^, or i91 moral in one le&pect cr
another. Now is it possible that such men
can he impartial inquirers after Limn ? is it
possible.that, without bias, they wuulu ex
amine tfecholy religion ot the Bible? Is it
i>ossibie that these, and suci* men, should be
the only correct teachers and apostles ol re
ligion and morality, whilst a Newton, a
Boyle, a Locke, a Hale, an Ado 1 son and a
thousand others, eminent for science, tor
character lor every virtue ornamental to hu
manity, should be the dupes ol priests and
slaves of superstition ? it cannot be.
1 will conclude, gentlemen, by intreating
you to aspire alter uue ana vital religion, in
its practical efleets upon your beaus and
lives. Without this, lilt* name and protes
si on will be vam. This will give evidence
of the truth of Christianity more convincing
and more comfortable than any other. It
:s tms alone which can give you peace and
joy in life, hope and triumph in death, and
alter death, glory, honour, and immortality.

Extract of a letter dated 7ih July .from
a Planter in Florida, la his friend in
this tiltf.
You may feel interested in what you
see in the newspapers relative to the
situation of this country ; nine-tenths
of the good people of this province, are
disposed to peace and quietness, and
il airy turbulent fellows should appear
artiongst us, they will be very roughly
handled, From the communications I
have had with the leading characters
of the country, it is my decided opinion
that they will not attempt to form any
separate or independent government,
but rally round and support the present
order of things, that is the old Spanish
government, and no other, until
know who we really belong to.
N EW - YORK, AUG. 8.
Famguake.
We learn by the Portuguese brig
from St. Michaels, that a very mdun
! cholv scene took place on the 24th of
June in the village ofCozar, situated
on the west point, about 21 miles from
the town ot St. Michael's. On that day
an earthquake destroyed the whole ul
lage ; and when the shock had subsi
ded, nothing was to be seen but water
apparently boiling out of the earth.
Some ol the distressed families in the
neighbourhood fled to the mountains
for shelter, and others to St. Michael's
where great apprehensions prevailed.
Many of the rocks were split asun
der.

In St. Pierre's voyage to the Ide of
i France (wheie Negroslaves are used
more barbarously than in any other
part of the known world) the wtiter
says. “ Blacks are frequently unable to
| endure their hard lots, and give them
| selves up to dispair; some hang or
! poison themselves ; others will get in
| to a little boat, and without sails, provi
sions, or compass, hazard a voyage of
two hundred leagues, that they may re
turn to Madagascar. For the most
part they secrete themselves in the
woods, where they are hunted by par
ties of soldiers, and by other liegioes
i with clogs. Some of the inhabitants
( form parties of pleasure for this pur
post:—put up a negro as they would .»
wild beast, and ii they cun net hunt him
down, wdl shoot him, cut off his head,
j and bring it in triumph to town upon
tde end of - utick !”
1
St. Pierre adds, “ i iiese unfortu
nate creatures are, however, indulged
with dogs ; but it is an undoubted fact,
that these animals know perfectly, even
in the dark, not ohly a white man, but
even a dog belonging to a white man,
both of whom they tear and hate ; howl
ing as soon as they approach. On the
contrary, dogs of white people seem to
have adopted the sentiments of their
masters ; and at the least encourage
ment will fly with the utmost fury up
on a slave, or upon his dog*'

Extract of a letter from Bordeaux,
ted June A:, 1810, to a Merchant in
Boston.
11 Since I had the pleasure or ,> ruing
you on the Istinst. I have heard that
it is supposed and feared by many A*
mericans at Paris, who have property
depending, that an older on the part
of the government will be issued to re
voke the decision of the Council of Pri
zes already made, where the comprov.se
nas been made with the captors, and pre
vent any future ratifications by said
Council. It is said, that when the em
peror was at Dunkirk, of late, he saUf
two American ships preparing 10 sail,
inquired the cause, and found they had
arranged with their captors, when he
ordered iheifi seized immediately l It
would appear by this, that the giving
up any part of the cargoes to the Amer
icans is contrary to the meaning and
spirit of the late decrees. The amount
of the thing is, that if the Council can
not ratifv the compromise, if tried and
not condemned to the captors, then the
government will sequester the property
as they do those not bro’t in as prizes/''

Fleecing the Dutch.
After despoiling the king of Piussia (who
is ^itied by nobody) of the greater part of
Ids dominions, N Apollyon levied an extra
ordinary contribution of some millions on
the wretched monarch, who it seems was
unable to pay it. But as N’ Apollvon “ wants
money and must have it,’’ the Prussian kin
gre was directed to bvtrovs it oi’ the Dutch.
The cunning Dutchmen smoked the trick,
and declined making the loan, alledging
th:»t t.iey did not know how soon N’ApolI
yon might seize the remainder of the Vius*
sian territory. But it was resolve* not its
let the Mynheers get off thus. A very cu
rious diplomatic l'-rce is acted, m which
N Apollyons minister tells the kit:gee of
Prussia’s minister that to remove ah acre
pies fror. uie minds of the Dutch, hts mas
ter N’Ap. guar an toes the integrity t what
is left of the P. ussiaii dominions, and mat
the Mynheers cannot, after this, refuse him
the money. The poor (Dutchmen are still
dissatisfied; know ng tba exact value of
French promises ; but thev are per force o
bligedto submit to this rtnv method of shear*
ing the sheep.
The diplomatic farce alluded to above,
is almost equal io the one played off a; Paris,
in divorcing Josephine.— Ibid.
