sometimes the result of friendship. But
TO utter IN conversation any thing, which,
though true, gives useless and unnecessary
pam, IS not only a breach of good manners,
but OF good morals, ald indicates dispo-
Sl'Ion naturally cruel and felorlous. The
man who waatonly fortunes the mind of
bis fellow creatures would torment his bo-
dy if he could do it with inpunity.
