The TATrLER.-There Is no being on the
habitAble globe more degenerated and more
contemplate than a tattler. Vicious prn-
ciples, want of honesty, servile meanness,
despicable insiduousness, form his charac-
ter. Has he wit? In attempting to dis
play it he makes himself fool. Has he
friends? By unhesitatingly disclosing
their secrets he will make them his most
bitter enemies. BY telling all he knows,
he will soon discover to the world that he
knows but little. Does he envy an indi-
vIdual? Ills tongue, fruitful with false
hood, defamcs his character. Does he
covet favor from any one? He attempts to
gain 1t by slandering others. His ap-
proach is feared, his person hated, his com
pany unsought and his sentiments despis-
ed as emlnatng from heart fruitful with
guile, tceming with iniquity, loaded with
envy, hatred and revenge.
