each day, and put up three prayers to God, in the first of which they praise God for counting them worthy to attend this divine service. In the second, they thank him for the miraculous preservation of their ancestors; in the third, that they have lived to observe another festival in memory of it. So bishop Patrick.
3. What it is since degenerated to, which is much worse. Their own writers own, that this feast is commonly celebrated among them with gluttony and drunkenness, and excess of riot. Their Talmud saith expressly, that in the feast of Purim a man should drink till he knows not the difference between cursed be Haman, and blessed be Mordecai . See what the corrupt and wicked nature of man often brings that to, which was at first well intended: here is a religious feast turned into a carnival, a perfect revel; as wakes among us. Nothing more purifies the heart, and adorns religion, than holy joy; nothing more pollutes the heart, and reproacheth religion, than carnal mirth and sensual pleasure. Corruptio optimi est pessima .
CHAP. X.
This is but a piece of a chapter. The rest of it beginning at ver. 4. with six chapters more, being found only in the Greek, are rejected as apocryphal. In these three verses, we have only some short hints. (1.) Concerning Ahasuerus in the throne, what a mighty prince he was, ver. 1, 2. (2.) Concerning Mordecai his favourite, what a mighty blessing he was to his people, ver. 2, 3.
1. AND the king Ahasuerus laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea. 2. And all the acts of his power, and of his might, and the declaration of the greatness of Mordecai, whereunto the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3. For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking the wealth of his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
We are here told,
1. How great and powerful king Ahasuerus was.
He had a vast dominion, both in the continent and among the islands, from which he raised a vast revenue. Besides the usual customs which the kings of Persia exacted, Ezra iv. 13. he laid an additional tribute upon his subjects, to serve for some great occasion he had for money, ver. 1. The king laid a tribute . Happy is our island, that pays no tribute but what is laid upon it by its representatives, and those of its own choosing, and is not squeezed or oppressed by an arbitrary power, as some of its neighbour nations are. Besides this instance of the grandeur of Ahasuerus many more might be given, that were acts of his power and of his might , but they are not thought fit to be recorded here in the sacred story, which is confined to the Jews, and relates the affairs of other nations only as they fell in with their affairs, but they are written in the Persian chronicles, ver. 2.
which are long since lost and buried in oblivion, while the sacred writings live, live in honour, and will till time shall be no more. When the kingdom of men , monarchs and their monarchies, are destroyed, and their memorial is perished with them , ( Psal. ix. 6. ) the kingdom of God among men, and the records of that kingdom shall remain, and be as the days of heaven , Dan. ii. 44.
2. How great and good Mordecai was.
1. He was great, and it doth one good to see virtue and piety thus in honour. (2.) He was great with the king; next to him, as one he most delighted and confided in. Long had Mordecai sitted contentedly in the king's gate, and now at length he advanced to the head-end of his council-board. Men of merit for a time seem buried alive, but often by some means or they are discovered and preferred at last. The declaration of greatness to which the king advanced Mordecai, was written in the chronicles of the kingdom , as very memorable, and contributory to the great achievements of the king. He never did acts of power, as he did when Mordecai was his right-hand. He was great among the Jews, ver. 3. not only great above them, more honourable than any of them, but great with them, dear to them, familiar with them, and much respected by them. far were they from envying his preferment, that they rejoice in it, and added to it, by giving him a commanding interest among them, and submitting all their affairs to his direction.
2. He was good, very good, for he did good; that made him truly great, and then his greatness gave him an opportunity of doing so much the more good. When the king advanced him, He did not disown his people the Jews, nor was he ashamed his relation to them, tho' they were strangers and captives, oppressed and despised. Still he wrote himself Mordecai the Jew, and therefore no doubt adhered to the Jews religion, by the observances of which he distinguished himself, and yet it was no blemish to his preferment, nor looked upon as a blemish to him. He did not seek his own wealth, and the raising of an estate for himself and his family, which is the chief thing most aim at, when they get into great places at court, but he consulted the welfare of his people, and made it his business to advance that. His power, his wealth, and all his interest in the king and queen, he improved for the public good. (3.) He did not only do good, but he did it in a humble condescending way, was easy of access, courteous and affable in his carriage, and spoke peace to all that made their application to him. Doing good works is the best and chief thing expected from those that have wealth and power, but giving good words is also commendable, and makes the good deed the more acceptable. (4.) He did not side with any one party of his people against another, nor make some his favourites, while the rest were neglected and crushed, but whatever differences there were among them, he was a common father to them all, recommended himself to the multitude of his brethren, not despising the crowd, and spoke peace to all their seed, without distinction. Thus making himself acceptable by humility and beneficence he was universally accepted, and gained the good word of all his brethren. Thanks be to God, such a government as this we are blessed with, which seeks the welfare of our people, speaking peace to all their seed. God continue it long, very long! And grant us, under the happy protection and influence of it, to live quiet and peaceable lives, in godliness, honesty, and charity.

Dr Sir
Yours of the 4 th Inst has been only rec d It appears from the same that you have credited Joseph Carroll with eighty five days duty in the Militia in Capt Barnett Company the Records of South Carolina show that the 85 days you credit to Joseph Car- roll in Capt Barnett Company was not done in Barnett Company but was done under Capt Thompson Capt Henderson & Carson  Hendley in 1780 81 & 82 and number of Tours and days in each Tour given the service in Capt Barnett Company was in the State Troops under an Enlistment for ten months which he served as Quarter Master Sergeant as appears from the indent to his credit Mr Jas Moore says he served three months with the State Troops at Orangeburg S.C. and was there thro' the winter and Spring of 82 and that Joseph Carroll was in Barnett Company of State Troops that does not mean Militia service (Moore was in the Militia and is a man of undoubted veracity)

Mr Curry who lived near Currold says he saw Currold often while in Barnett company of State Troops and knew best Barnet well Robert Wilson says he was in Snow Campain 1775 and State com- -paign in 1778 and was generally in service after the fall of Charleston in 1780 Braggall and part of the time in Hampton's Regiment (I write the last from memory as I have lost the copy of his deposition) Major M c Kim says to the same effect there is now no man living that served in numbers State Troops that I know or can hear of and it is impossible to prove his Currold's service by any one that served with him I can offer Additional Evidence in abun- -dance that he did serve in the State Troops which is now the biggest Evidence that can be offered, I hope you will reconsider the claim as it is one of importance and the widow is still living but from the in- firmity of age is entirely unable to give the particulars of her husband's service Major Samuel Jones of Gershaw's Bri- -gade says he became acquainted with Joseph Currold shortly after the Battle of Eutaw

Springs area that he was in poor in Sutler's Brigade State Troops this service must have been six or seven months from Sept until Apr 82 his son if it would satis- factory could state on oath his service more specific than his widow can do
I has answer the above and give me such instructions as will enable me to meet your requisitions as she is my great gran- daunt she is now a pensioner of the state of South Carolina at the rate of 30 dollars per annum (for the last three years), the widows of Revolutionary soldiers are got on the pension Roll of the state by petition certifying that they (applicants) were wives in part time or had made application to the general Gov- ernment and failed, there is no proof of service required

Rofs and A. S. Wallen who sign officially are faint and illegible

Yours most respectfully Jas A Black

Sir
The accompanying Certificate in favor of Martha Carroll Widow of Joseph Carroll, is not satisfactory
I have the honor to request a re-examination of the Evidence in this case — Carroll was shown by the Records of this State to have been Quarter-Master Sergeant in Genl Sumpters Brigade of State Troops, under an enlistment for Ten Months — He was therefore a Cavalry , & not an Infantry Soldier — and his his Widow is consequently entitled to half his monthly Pay which was Fifteen Dollars Pr Month — Under a resolution of Congress of 1778 —
I beg leave also to call your attention to the fact that the

Evidence on file in this case proves that Joseph Carroll rendered three months service in the Snow Campaign in the year 1775 - & for which the Certificate issued makes no allowance
Your attention to these facts are Respectfully solicited - Your decision upon them can be communicated to me after my arrival in Washington and should you deem these additional claims are not well founded - The Certificate already issued you will be pleased to return to me
I am very respectfully

All Wallacoe,
In looking over papers to day I found my reference leaf and the name of Joseph Carroll on it. Upon examination I find two entries to his credit which I believe I forgot to mention in my letter yesterday. They are Book I 170 Joseph Carroll 40 days as horseman under Capt Thomson in 1780. 22 under Capt Henderson in 1781 as horseman and 24 under Capt Garrison as horseman. His name also appears Book II 336 for £141 sterling for pay as 2 Master Sergeant in Henry Hampton's Regt Sumter's Brigade State Troops. I hope this will be satisfactory, as it was merely an oversight, the other all correct.
I remain Respectfully J. M. G. Black Deputy

have been admitted but aside from this the traditional proof with the certificate of the Comptroller General from Charleston S.C. sent you in July last to which you replied on the 21 st of Aug last shows conclusively to my mind that Joseph Carrell who served in the Snow campaign in 75 the indian cam- paign in 76 in southy going in 80 is the identical in divisional who served ten months in Hutton's Regiment as a Quar- termaster Sergeant in 1781 & 82
