the tiling has been so much talked about,
that it is got to be an old story .A: that peo
p!e are tired of hearing about it, as P evae
of hearing the same trutlis from the pulpit j
every Sabbath ; but as tne lessoiu of tin
one are no more practised thin those of
(lie other, it seems quite as necessary as
.it eier was before to say, on the authority
oi Dr. Franklin, that it is the roaJ on j powerful style your. clergymen are 01 i.uo
which those who' Would thrive must trav- ' adopting. It is certainly well calculate d
