PROFLIcACY EXPOSED,
OR, THE
ROYAL BROTHERS ADMONlSHED.

We are not able, upon the mot deliberate re-
collection, TO fix the period of time when inor
dlnate iatcivoufnefs and the fpirit of nucontnen-
cy were more prevalent than in the prefent
age. Every one who has the leait knowledge
OF the town, cannot BE- gaorant of the dreadful
prevalence of this vice, and of the difgraceful
examples which have been fet by more than one
OF the Royal Brothers. In coTee-houfes, men
talk of their iniquities and immoralities without
reiervc. Their rank has become eclipfed by
their habits of profligacy, and all the moral du-
ties Of life feem by fome of the leading branch
es Of the Royal family to have been long facri-
iced to their horrid dehauchcries. extravaganza,
and prohigate indulgence of their pafiions.
We deeply lament the notoriety of ihe con-
duSt which has long characterized fome of the
prefent Royal brothers: erdowments, Provi-
dcnce certainly meant TO be devoted TO the caufe
OF virtue, we have feen proftituted and applied
to the qualification of the mott reprchenfibIe
paiiions. However vices of high and dignihed
hood may be varnilhed over, or whatever ef-
forts may be employed impede the due courfc
OF the law, the guilt till remains, and the eva.
ion OF junice is no proof of innocence. To i'm
peach the faith in religion of fome of our pre-
fent princes, we with we. could FAY were hard
talk. but the Hagrant inftances Of the immoral
lily of their condntt, which continue amoR
daily to occur, bat gain upon our opinions, and
perfuade MS fuch talk (were we to attempt it)
would not be attended with the leaf difficulty.
