I gradually led astray from the order which they re-
I ceived from the Apostles, and became wordly assem-

It was chiefly by a perversion of words that eerie-
' siastics established their dominion over the minds of 1
men. At• first view it appears surprising, that by 1
the use of such an engine, effects 50 wonderful should
have been brought about; but a very little enquiry
will convince any person, who pays attention to the
subject, that, not in Matters of religion only, but, in
1 all that concerns the general affairs of the world, the
bulk of mankind, in all ages, have been duped by
sounds,and made willing instruments in the hands of the
designing and ambitions, to promote the selfish views
of the latter. As I shall; be under the necessity et
alluding, in the coarse of the present disquisition, or'
1 numerous instances of this pa version of words, I shall
1 here notice only two or three, which are necessary
for ilhistrating the subject under consideration.
Christians were enjoined by their great Master, to
observe all things that he had commanded them—and as
" all things," as we have seen, could only be obseered
by them in church fellowship, hence the repeated in-
junctions laid upon them to esteem and honour those
whose more peculiar duty it was to see 64 all things"
duly observed among them ;. hence the admopitions
given to them to avoid SCRUMS and Hennes—
' hence too the exhortations addressed to the Elders
or Bishops to take heed to then:selves and to all the Pock;
;
" and to fad theiock of GOD, taking the Bishop': ofee, not
for the rah of gain, nor as being lords over a lINAITAGI.
A brief exposure of the artifices by which injunctions,
1 so simple as these, were perverted by the Bishops and
their adherents, to suit their oven worldly views, will
enable the-reader to form some idea of -the skill and
dexterity with which they contrived to convert the'

Thursday last, the '24th ultimo, the following me.
lancholy accident occurred at Eurirarih, in Romney
Marsh :—As the eldest son of Richard Coleman,
Esq. of Dimehurch, a promising youth of 16, was
!assisting some workmen to remove a wheat-stack into
the barn, some of the shea(s on which he stood, at
the end of the stack, gave way, and precipitated
him to the bottom ; when falling unfortunirely
upon ai inverted pitchfork, the spongs entered his
body.on the left side near the region of the heart, and
caused almost instantaneous dissolution. He expired
,in a few minutes, in the arms of his afflicted and in.
consolable father, whose feelings en this distressing
occurrence are not easily described. The untimely
fate of this truly amiable youth, who was thus pre-
maturely summoned in the vernal blossom of life,
bath diffused a Mournful gloom over an extended
circle of disconsolate friends.
Another instance of the surprising effects is the
American Soothing Sirup :—The child of Mr. West-
comb, 42, Whitcomb-street, Leicester-square, was
dreadful in cutting her teeth ; with her two first she
had a total stoppage of her urine, that Dr. Thomas
performed an operation on the child ; she was just as
bad, with an inflammation on her loins, and a bad
cough, with scarce any breath, when Mr. W. applied
the Sirup to her gums—.it immediately relieved the
child, and has brought all her teeth, without pain
the two first are quite black.—To be had of the Pro-
prietor, J. JOHNSON, 94, Newman-street, Oxford-road,

Arts nove.—The late CHARLESFox went one night
into Brookes's, and offered to set 50001. on one band
at hazard ; he said he wanted 20,0001. for some pur-
pose essential to his happiness, and 50001. could not
attain it—he won—doubled his stake, and gained his
wishes. Now the application of the above fact is this,
almost every individual in the kingdom has some dar-
ling object, or some ardent wish, which his Isresent
means cannot obtain: now, if a probability be held
out of his attaining it, not by the risk of 50001. but
by the risk of one, two, or three pounds, which can
injure tto,one, ought it shot in prudence to be risked
