pride, induces them to abandon the
scenes of their late pomp and magni6-
cence. They retire from the seaports
to the towns and villages of the country,
and carry with them their habits oflux-
ury and extravaganza. No longer able
to make figure in the city, they aspire
to lead the fashion, and direct the taste
OF lesser places. The village shop
keeper, the village lawyer, and the vii
lage doctor, pay their respects to the
new conner, and are dazzled at the ele-
giant appearance of his house, furniture,
and family. He gives an entertainment.
1t is served up in superior style. A
superb table equipage, costly dishes, and
viands of exquisite favour, surprise and
astonish the quality Of the village. Their
emulation is excited. They aspire to
make an equal show. Purse, property,
credit, every nerve is strained, to enable
them to receive the new corners in equal
style. From these village gentry, the
contagion spreads to their country &C
quaintance, and becomes general among
all who have any thing like compc-
tence.
Where will the remedy for these evils
be found /? In some general calamity,
some national disaster to which there
is reason to believe we are now fast ap-
preaching. With the loss of commerce,
the sources of wealth and profusion will
be dried up. We will be compelled to
live within ourselves. Necessity may
possibly force things to proper chan
mel, and teach US to respect our own ma
nufactures, and the provisions which
are produced in our own soil. We can
we'll afford to lose some of our sources
of acquiring property, if with them we
can shake off our habits of extravaganza.
Should we, in pecuniary point of view,
suffer much ; yet if we find ourselves a
more wise, more industrious, and more
frugal people, we may justly count our
losses for great gain. T

towns, but pervades the whole country,
and is gradually drying up every source
OF industry and wealth.
No man of reflection, who feels real
concern for the prosperity and happiness
OF our country, can view the state of So
clety, even in the 7cilds of Ohio, without
the most melancholy forebodinps. In
this rich and fertile country, Astounding
with all the necessaries, with manv Of
the luxuries, Of life far removed and
secluded from the "stir of commerce."
and all its scrofulous concomitants, we
f'nd the simplicity of agricultural man
ncrs, and the produce of our soil, held
equally IN contempt. SO soon as far
mer, by industry and frugalitv, has ac-
CURED little independence, his whole
family economy must be changed. His
sons must wear broadcloths, Windsor
chords and velvets. His daughters must
be rugged out in calicoes, muslins, and
silks lace, Dunstable, and Morocco.
Nothing is decent that is manufactured
at home. Their linens, cottons, and
Woollens, are exchanged, at half price,
Tor the Hlmsy manufactures of Europe
ana India. Our farmers crops, before
they have attained their growth, some
times before they are put in the ground,
are mortgaged for the support Of the
Cotton and lace manufactures Of the
OLD world. Their butter, cheese, and
Deef, are consumed before they get to
market, by the use Of coffee and tea, SUI
gar and spices, and at the end of the
year they have nothing for their labour,
but the reflection that their children
nave enervated their constitutions, and
acquired habits of idleness, dissipation,
and extravaganza.
If we trace these evils to their source,
we shall find that they are only to be
attributed to the enormous wealth which
few individuals have acquired by COM
mercial enterprise and prosperity. The
desires, the vanities Of the human heart,
are without bounds and money, which
is the means of every sensual gratifc
ton, generally prompts the possessor to
4 gorgeous display Of his taste and
splendour. This excites emulation, and
emulation gives new life and vigour to
enterprise. Thousands embark in the
same speculations, and, without equal
success make an eoua1 dis,1av IF wealth
