Of matters which, to an unprejudiced eye, may
very reasonably be considered at least harmless.
Torn from the context, the words quoted by
Brutus have very different appearance when
taken with what precedes them.
1T is easy to say hard things" says Mr..
Polk, and Brutus shews us it is true. Let me
advise Brutus to look, with the calm and unim-
FASHIONED manner which would become the name
he has assumed; -when next he undertakes to
animadvert upon the sentiments of others, let him
advert to the course OF the e old Roman" whose
name he has assumed, before ne Yields the-pen.
Brutus weighed and pondered we'll before he
struck-but then it was with full effect.
Should this not suit the temperament of our
modern Brutus so WE'LL if he be not one Of those
comfortable folks described by Cesar
"Let me have men about me that are fat,
Sleek headed men, and such sleep o. nights
On the contrary, should he be man who
" has 3 lean and hungry look"
who "thinks too much, land, would add with
Caesar. 8. would be - fatter,'9 he should at
least drop the name OF the cautious and wary
Brutus, and subscribe himself in future. as doth
your humble servant. " CASSIUS."
