7 The | arts of de- | ceit and | cunning | 7 con- tinually | grow | weaker, 7 and | less | serviceable | 7 to those that | practise them; | 77 | 7 where- | as | 7 in- | tegrity | 77 | gains | strength by | use; | 77 | and the | more and | longer | any man | practiseth it, | 7 the | greater | service | 7 it | does him; |77| by con- | firming his | repu- | tation, | 7 and en- | couraging | those | 7 with | whom he | hath to | do, | 7 to re- | pose the | greatest | confidence | in him: | 77 | which is an un- | speakable ad- | vantage | 7 in | business, | and the af- | fairs of | life. | 77|77|

7 But | insin- | cerity | 7 is | very | troublesome to | manage. | 77|77|7 A | hypocrite | 7 hath so | many | things | 7 to at- | tend to, | 7 as | make his | life | 7 a | very per- | plexed and | intricate | thing. | 77|77| 7 Aliar 7 hath | need of a | good | memory, |77| lest he | contra- | dict | 7 at | one | time | 7 what he | said at an- | other: 7 7| 7 but | truth | 7 is | always con- | sistent, | 7 and | needs | nothing to | help it | out : | 7 7| 7 it is | always | near at | hand, | 7 and | sits upon our | lips; | 77 | 7 where- | as a | lie | 7 is | troublesome, | 7 and | needs a | great | many | more | 7 to make it | good. |77|77|

7 In a word, | whatso- | ever con- | venience | may be | thought | 7 to | be in | falsehood | 7 and dis- | simu| lation, | 7 it is | soon | over: | 77 | but the | incon- | venience of it | 7 is per- | petual; | 77 | 7 be- | cause | 7 it | brings a | man | under an | ever-| lasting | jealousy | and sus- | picion; | 77 | so that he is | not be- | lieved | 7 when he | speaks the | truth;3 | 77 | nor | trusted | 7 when per- | haps, | 7 he | means | honestly. | 77| 77 | When a man hath | once | forfeited | 7 the repu- | tation | 7 of his in- | tegrity, | 77 | nothing will | then | serve his | turn: | 7 7 | neither | truth | nor | falsehood. | 7777

7 In- | deed, | 7 if a | man were | only to | deal in the | world | 7 for a day, | 77 | and should | never have oc- | casion | 7 to con- | verse | more | with man- | kind, | it were | then | 7 no | great | matter | 7 (as | far as res- | pects the af- | fairs of | this | world,) | 7 if he spent his | repu- | tation | all at once; |7 or | ventured it | 7 at | one | throw. | 77 | 77 | But if he | be to con- | tinue | 7 in the | world, | 7 and would | have the ad- | vantage of | repu- | tation | whilst he is | in it, | let him | make | use of | truth | 7 and sin- | cerity | 7 in | all his | words and | actions; | 77 | 7 for | nothing but | this | 7 will | hold | out | 7 to the | end. | 77|77| All | other | arts may | fail; | 7 but | truth | 7 and in- | tegrity | 7 will | carry a | man | through, | 7 and | bear him | out | 7 to the | last. | 77|77|

HYDER ALI.

Extract from a speech of Mr. Burke.

When at | length | Hyder | Ali | found, | 7 that he | had to do with | men, | 7 who ❘ either would | sign | no con- | vention, | 7 or | whom | no | treaty, | 7 and | no | signature | 7 could | bind; | 7 and | who were the de- | termined | enemies | 7 of | human | intercourse |

7 it- | self, | 7 he de- | creed | 7 to | make the | coun try | 7 pos- | sessed by | these in- | corrigible | 7 and pre- | destinated | criminals, | 7 a | memorable ex- | ample | 7 to man- | kind. | 77 | 77 | 7 He re- | solved, | 7 in the | gloomy re- | cesses of a | mind | 7 ca- | pacious of | such | things; | 7 to | leave the | whole Car- | natic, | 7 an | ever- | lasting | monument of | vengeance, | 7 and to | put per- | petual | 7 deso- | lation, 7 as a | barrier, | 7 be- | tween | him, | 7 and | those, | 7 a- | gainst | whom, | 7 the | faith | 7 which | holds the | moral | elements | 7 of the | world | 7 to- | gether, | 7 was ❘ no pro- | tection. 77777 He be- | came | 7 at | length | so | confident | 7 of his force | 7 and | so col- | lected | 7 in his | might, | 7 that he | made | no | secret | 7 what- | ever, | of his | dreadful | reso- | lution. | 7 7| 7 7| Having | terminated | 7 his dis- | putes | 7 with | every | enemy, | 7 and | every | rival, | 7 who | buried their | mutual | 7 ani- | mosities, | 7 in their | common | interest, | 7 a- | gainst the | creditors of the | Nabob of | Arcot; | 7 7| 7 he | drew from | every | quarter, | 7 what | ever a | savage fe- | rocity | 7 could | add | 7 to his | new | rudiments | 7 in the | art of de- | struction; | 7 and com- | pounding | all the ma- | terials of | fury, | 77| havoc, | 7 and | deso- | lation, | 7 into | one | black | cloud; | 7 he | hung for a | while | on the de- | clivities | of the | mountains. | 77|77|

Whilst the | authors of | all | these | evils, | 7 were | idly and | stupidly | gazing | 7 on this | menacing | meteor, | 7 which | blackened | all the ho- | rizon, | 7 it | suddenly | burst, | 7 and 1 poured | down the | whole of its con- | tents, | 7 upon the | plains | 7 of the Car- |

natic. 7777 | Then en- | sued a | scene of | wo; | 7 the | like of | which | no | eye had | seen, | 7 nor | heart con- | ceived, | and which | no | tongue | 7 can | adequately | tell. | 77 | 7 | All the | horrors of | war, | 7 be- | fore | known or | heard of, | 7 were | mercy, | 7 to that | new | havoc. | 77|77|7 A | storm of | uni- | versal | fire | blasted | every | field, | 7 con- | sumed | every | house, 7 and de- | stroyed | every | temple. | 77|77| 7 The | miserable in- | habitants, | 77 | flying from their | flaming | villages, | 77 | 7 in | part, | 7 were | slaughtered, 7 7| others, | 7 with- | out re- | gard to | sex, 17 to | age, | 7 to | rank, | 7 or | sacredness of | function |77| fathers | torn from | children, | 77 | husbands, | 7 from | wives, | 77 | 7 en- | veloped in a | whirlwind of | cavalry, | 7 and a- | midst the | goading | spears of | drivers, | 7 and the | trampling | 7 of pur- | suing | horses, | 7 were | swept into cap- | tivity, | in an un- | known | 7 and | hostile | land. |77|77| Those who were | able to e- | vade this | tempest, | 77 | fled to the | walled | cities. | 77 | But es- | caping from | fire, | sword, | 7 and | exile, | 7 they | fell into the | jaws of | famine. |

7 For | eigh- | teen | months | 7 with- | out intermission, | 77 | this de- | struction | raged | 7 from the | gates of Ma- | dras | 7 to the | gates of Tan- | jore, | 7717 and so com- | pletely | 7 did | these | masters in their | art, | Hyder | Ali, | 7 and his | more fe- | rocious | son, | 7 ab- | solve themselves | 7 of their | impious | vow, | 7 that | when the | British | armies | traversed, | 7 as they | did, | 7 the Car- | natic | 7 for hundreds of miles | 7 in | all di- | rections; | 7 through the | whole | line of their | march, | 7 they

did not | see | one | man, | 77| 7 not | one | woman, 777 not | one | child, | 77 | 7 not | one | four footed | beast, | 7 of | any des- | cription | 7 what- | ever. | 77|77| One | dead | uniform | silence | 7 7 | reigned over the | whole | region. | 77|77|

FOURTH CHAPTER OF JOHN.

7 When | therefore | 7 the | Lord 7 | knew | 7 how the | Pharisees had | heard 7 | 7 that | Jesus | made and bap- | tised | more dis- | ciples than | John, | 7 though | Jesus him- | self | 7 bap- | tised | not, | but | 7 his dis-1 ciples, | 7 he | left Judea, | 7 and de- | parted a- | gain | 7 into | Galilee. | 77|77| And he must | needs | go | through Sa- | maria. | 7 7| 7 7 | Then | cometh he | 7 to a city of Sam- | aria, | 7 which is | called | Sychar, | 77| near to the | parcel of | ground | 7 that | Jacob | gave | 7 to his | son | Joseph. | 7 7| 7 77 Now | Jacob's | well | 7 was | there. | 77 | 77 | Jesus | therefore | being | wearied with his | journey, | 77 | sat | thus | 7 on the | well: | 7 7 | and it was a- | bout the | sixth | hour. | 77 | 77 | There | cometh a | woman of Sam- | aria | 7 to | draw | water. | 77|77| Jesus | saith unto her, | 77 | Give me to | drink, | 77| 7 for his dis- | ciples | 7 were | gone a- | way | 7 into the | city, 7 to | buy | meat. | 77|77|77| Then saith the | woman of Sam- | aria | unto him, | 77| How is it | 7 that | thou, | being a | Jew, | askest | drink of | me, | who am a | woman of Sam- | aria ? | 7 for
