Kenncbeck, Fuly 20, qz;. Yesterday - arrived here the fa.
mous John Malcom, (h: ays) with large Authority from the
Commissioners of the Customs ; the severe Chaitifement he met
with from the Taylor has not made the lealt Abatement of his
Arrogance, but seems determined 10 exercise his Authority with
the Greatest Severity. We are suspicious that our Bedcham
bers will not be (ecure from the Invasion of this penetrating
Searcher. He bas laid afide'that religious Habit which he al
ways had Recouwife to when Poverty touched his Confcignee ;
and now begins to swear with great Vociferation, When such
Creatures are employed in Public Affairs, it gives us great Reason
to think there is some rotten Plank in our Constitution,

O Day man's drefs’d in Gold and Silver bright,
" Wrapt in a Shrow'd before To-morrow Night,
To Day he’s {ceding on delicious food ;
To-morrow dead ; unable te do good.
To Day he's nice, and Scorns to feed on Crombs :
To-morrow he's himfelf a Dish for Worms.
To Day he's grand, majettick, all Delight ;
G haftful and pale, before To-morrow Night.

) E Power of Prejudice has the mﬁ-fwgriﬁa_\g Effet on
the human Mind ;----how prevalent against Reason and
;W! It enters the Soul throogh it's Avenues by falfe
fe, insensibly rises till it rages with impetuous Jealousy,
and finally discharges at the Mouth of Hell.-.... Iniemperate
Zeal, Bigotg ard Pesfecution are it's Offspring, produttive of
diftrefling Consequences, and sendering it's Subjeéts h ghly
criminal; howevet specious the adopted Purty may appear,--i--
Netw thftanding which, how trequently do we find weak, tho'
approvid Picty and Virtue fuffering such abfard Principles to
predominate. The truly wife Man will examine Matters with
the gresteft Caution, on Suspicion of his sptitiide to be misled,
especially where the Veftigia of Fraud have even the least Ap
pearance. :
The late Commotions in our General Assembly, on Account
of a Number of Leiters wrote by Persons of public Charater
among us, are a recent Instance of the general Prevaleace and
baneful Eff:&t of Prejudice and imtemperate Zeal.o-.aThis I
shall endeavour to make appear to those of Candid Dispositions
only with Regard to Governor Hu«g‘an‘s Letters, as mathes
matical Demonfigation can have no Effe@® on the prefeat ada
mant Prejudice that fubfifis : And in general would observe that
on the closest Examination, can find nething more therein cont
tained than what he has frequently delivered in his public
Specches to his Majelly's Council and House of Representatives.
The Letters by their Date appear to bave been written at.a
Time when Anarchy had the Afcehdency ; and Influente of
civil Authority bore but little Weight, and when Mr. Hutchin
son's Houfc was beset and destroyed by lawleis Men. Thele
Lettere aee (ent with secret Injunéiuus, thefr Direétions crafed
or torn off, and, from the Distance of theit Dates and Msnnet
of Expyeffion, it must appear-highly probable theeg were Num
bers of others wrote to ‘tr:f ate Person or Persons-which wotld
undoubtedly put the Design of these in a tiue Light, had the
latent Person who sent them, been any Friend to Honor or Jus
tice, and these only which might serve to incense the Mind (un
der the Conftru@ion of his worthy Correspondents) are to maké
their Appearance. Nor does Injuftnefs and Unfairnefs rest with
them only, when our-&ffembly have ordered the Publifhaient of
the Letters, in Order to make Mr. Hutchinson appear culpable,
how low the Artifice !-----. His Letters must be tacked to Mr,
Oliver’s to be considered colle@ively ; and when any Thing o¢-
curs which might tend to inflame the Miad, it is printed in Itae
licks,-----Are these Things thus ?-----Is it not to be Jamented,
my gdear Countrymen, that a few hot-heaided, designing Men,
on such flight Grounds, should raise such Clamour to prejudice
the Man, who [ caanot bat think, bighly deserving of more
candid Treatment. Common Humacity should induce us to
be more cautious in judging and, as Christians, how opposite
has been the general Condhict to the Laws of our great Matfter,
or St. Paul's Deferiptivn of benevolent Charity, notwith@anding
the Influence of designing Pricfts, from sordid Views,
CANDIDUS.
