&C THEY SAY -

"They say" tells that which is not
true at least three quarters of the time.
lie is about the worst authority you can
produce to support the credibility OF
your statement. Scarcely was there
ever a suspicious report put in circula-
ton, but this Mr.. They Say was the au-
thor of it and he always escapes re-
sponsibility and detection, because, liv-
ing just no where, he can no where be
found. Who said that Mr.. T.. the mer-
chant, was supposed to be in failing
conditioni Why "They Say" so. On
what authority do you affirm that neigh
bor +. has been in bad company' Why
"Thoy say" SO. Is il fact that Miss
G.. is not so circumspect and chasto as
she should be f! Why "They say" so.--

There is a religion which is too sin
cere for hypocrisy, but too transient to
be profitable too superficial to reach
the heart, too unproductive to proceed
from it. 1t is slight, but not false. 1t
has discernment enough to distinguish
sin, but not frmness enough to oppose
it; compunction sufficient to soften the
heart, but not vigor sufficient to reform
it. 1t laments when it does wrong, and
performs all the functions of repentance
of sin, except forsaking it. 1t has ev-
cry thing to religion except the heart.
This is religion Of times, events and
circumstances; it is brought into play by
accidents, and dwindles away with the
occasion which called it out Festivals
and fasts which occur but seldom, are
much observed, and il is to be feared
because they occur but seldom while
the great festival which comes every
week, comes too often to be respectful
ly treated. The piety of these people
comes out much in sickness, but is apt
to retreat again as recovery approaches.
If they die, they are placed by their ad-
mrers in the Saints Calendar; if they
recover, they 60 back into the world
they had renounced, and again suspend
their amendment, as often as death sus-
pends his blow.-HANNAH MOORE.

/ Sir Robert Walpolc wls the celebrated EDr]isl
minister. OF whom it was SAID that he was the frs
minister who ever reduced corruption to system
lis administration is as well known in English
history as the reign Of corruption. as the admin
stration Of the CoALITIoN will be in American
history, by the same appella ton. His maxim was
ererg man has his price" This is exactly the
same thing, in reality the doctrine advanced by
liay to Gen. Floyd, Of Virginia. When Genera;
si'yd asked Clay how the Coalition could possibIy
expect to sustain themselves against the peoDlc,

pole the Prince OF CORRUPTION. was just as brazen
laced as senry Clay, and used to put his hand
on his heart, and talk as Clay does, about CON
scrEHcE!" The English historian, DR.. Smoett.
remarks upon ono OF his speeches IN the House of
Commons, in which he had been protesting his ho.
nesy and regard TO " conscience"--that such pro.
testafipns " IN the hearing Of so many persons
VINO not only hEear, but subsisted by his wages of
corruption, was strong proof OF the minister's
being dead to all sense oil shame and all regard to
reracity" When, after great length Of time,
he was driven from ms place by the iurce of pub
lie indignation, AS Adams and Clay will be dri.
ven from their PAGES in a short space of time an
investigation took place somewhat like that Of our
Committee on Rctlcnchment last winter. 1t dis.
covered a our committee did, the most scartaous
abuses. 1t appeared that the minister had EN-.
ployed ihiqnitoas acts to influence tie elections ;
that for secret service during the last ten years. he
had touched ono million fur hundred and iifty.
three thousand four hundred pounds of the public
money that above .fHy thonsand pounds OF this
sum had been paid to authors and printers 81 ngus
papers o1 potiticot tracts written in defence of

the Coalition have taken leaf out of Sir Robert
