His wis the fortune, in a davgerous day,
i Tolead a yonthful nation On its way :
A pumper’d nation, provud, disdaining rule,
As yvet untutor’d in misfortune’s school,
Mad with division——and ambition’s eye,
Yiery and rcm:%l watch’d its moanent nigh,
His was the crdry, slander’d and revil'd,
Jeerd as he apoke, and thawarted us he teild,
While war assum®d its last and mighticst forms,
Upright and firm, to wall: BETWEEN the storms.
MY DEAR'SISTER,
1 do not know that I ean more advantageously,
T am sure I'cannot more agreeably, consecrate the
unniversary of the flew lycu. tham by devoting' it to
my transatlantick fiiends. That I tender them the
usua! Kintl wishes of the season, prosperity and hap
piness, cannot be questioned, and if my S;ood will or
exertions conld procure them, lhcﬁ would most cer
tainly be the happiest of mortals. With the entrance
of unew year, we are naturally led to reflections
upén the past, and to prophecies as to the future ;
we-compare the present with the last anniversary,
and we torm opinions as to the next. At the last new
vear's day,d was in a country (Great Britain) enli
vened by industry, eariched by commerce, 'gm'crm-;‘.
with moderation, conducted by wisdom. The rich
sceure, tho poor clothed and fed, amply protected a-
Quinst the insolence of the great, the stale calumnies
axalast it to the contrary notwithstanding, The
government ltl‘bhs to its enemies, mild to Its -sub
jeets, yet firm and stable. The present ﬁ"’ I am
in a country where the government is terrible only to
the weak, feeble, to its enemies, awful to its subjects,
splendidly upgregsivn to the poor, and contemptibly
suppliant to the powerfals Courting the Emperour
of the French, yct rclyh_\g wholly on the prowess of
the m'ldh A nation idle, yet luxurious ; proud,
vet ‘cowardly ; debauched, yet superstitious. Its no
bility,- osthi\héo‘uo‘. yet destitute of wealth ; its poor,
oppresyed ‘gu mlm;nhhing ¢ its religion,
mingled wit on, to a degres, that renders
it at onee ity disgrace amdl its ruin. Fudul to indus
try, as run‘k&h even to morality, the superstition of
the Neapolitans ll’e%uany subversive of private vie
tue, and of publick happiness.
Om the next anniversary, should I be spared to
#itness. it, Tshall be happy on my beloved, my native
shotes. My %uchmg 10 my country wonl.(induoe

rounded by every ‘and luxury which the old.

The boast of envy atorming vound his feet.
Stand forth, reviler ! and assert thy claim
To wclﬁh his wisdom, and denounce his fame,
Art thou superiour ? is it thine to rear
A nation’s standard in its awiul sphere ?
Hast thou a mind all adequate and vast,
T'o pierce the future, comprehend the past,
View eévery motive, g‘lw{ each cause its weight,
And trace efect abroad from state to state !
Art thou the 'snie to guard through every lour,
The bounds of ri 'lltz:m frandulence and power
To rise sérene, whe thunders round are harel’d,
And stand atmong the mighty of the world ?
