A FASHIONABLE CHURCH.--Waih. .—Li cb At
sacred and well filled edifice,—it is a fashionable efYilri
you observe how well cleaned and well painted it I"eptiet
fresh the brass nails and the red cloth seem in the go;
folks' pews ; how respectable the clerk looks--the,rebeferat
too, is considered a very gentlensanlike young roan' "leitr,e4'‘i
tor is going to begin the sermon : he is a very f dirik
man, people say be will be a bishop one ° „schrli
days, for he edited a Greek play, and was private ' hOl at
to Lord GLITTER. Now, observe him—his rcYce:rriff)t
monotonous !—his manner, how cold !—his face, bf Cyst' it
posed !—yet, what are his words, "Flee the wrat",,er, 0 lh,
to come. Think of your immortal souls. Reole°':iifely,,
remetnber ! how terrible is the responsibility 0' be sI,
how strict the account !—bow suddenly it may affilS
manded !" Are these his words ?—they are certainly to :,'lll
sionate import, and they are doled forth in the t°,,er:,ty:
a lazy man saying, " .JOHN, how long is it to dint° ig
Why, if the calmest man in the world wereog, ;'llll'
a game-keeper not to shoot his favourite —eg,
would speak with a thousand times more en Ir
and yet this preacher is endeavouring to en,voiecti,
souls of the whole parish—of all his acquai°;,, le; '
all his friends—all his relations—his wife (0- mr,
in the purple bonnet, whoso sins doubtless n°ooo7, '
knows better) and his six children, whose i'nrtillN
welfare must be still dearer to him than their tea ofktl
advancement: and yet what a wonderful cotr°ll3.„nilileiN
his emotions ! I never saw a man so cool in -,,)'ltti
" But, my dear Sir," says the fashionable purist' .e °l„h,l
coolness is decorum ; it is the proper cbaractetl"fig ltp
clergyman of the established church."......Bulteers

WHAT USED TO BE THE WAY 0-- 1/j -N
WORLD.—The following is an extract from ,nr6tit
written from Bath, in 1733, by a son to his fat",,eerf I i
published in a recent Bath journal :—" Look-i•-•°" rithi
he, at those who generally arrogate to themselves 1 cif.ill,
to influence public proceedings—whether of a I°c,„s,ooi.,` 4'
general nature, and you will find dishonesty aee°Y;iiii`",
by impudence and arrogance, to be their only cluocef,op
tions. One insists that he is of a superior class i° ',.,,,,,il
and deserving of influence, because he inhabits "e ti0;0 e
house in a particular street ; although at the €‘5P01V011:1
the rent of such house has never been obtained lr°barto 01!
without distraint. Another will feel his dignitd!,/ 4'
the bare insiouation that an honest (but as heed,Di ,
low) mechanic should have a voice respecting t"eiees,ri. 0,
of the laws which tend greatly to effect his haPPlarf o
his misery. What ! he would say, stiffer the'e,,,•tb'ff

pretensions were examined into, his ocr° Ltd/
most likely would consist in his having chen-jr •bo
creditors to an immense amount ; and the ncia 4100 ,
in the country he would possess, would be f‘Tib-iiitsl ,;,'
being enabled, through a certain species of 017 otno
