TO be fuaviter in modo fort it ^r in re, gentle in manner, firm in condudf.,' is the gieatell perfection of which Lord Cheller- field has any conception ; and it muft he al¬ lowed that he frequently illuftrates this im¬ peding maxim in a molt pleating manner.— But when he refers us to thofe who have been mod fuccefsful in its application to practice, he totally fails ; for we find them all to have been either extremely weak or no- torioufly wicked. Before a fentiment can be admitted as an unalterable rule of con¬ duct, it lhould be viewed in every pofllble light, tor fear that it may fanclion fome er¬ ror, obltrucl the progrefs of virtue, or very ealily amalgamate with vice If it do any of thefc, it ccafes to be a maxim ; it may itill apply in particular cafes ; but then it muft lervc under the direction ofreafon.— That this celebrated faying is very confiftent with weaknefs and wickednefs, i^ ably prov¬ ed by Lord Chefterdeld himfcif. He tells us that Lord Albemarle attained to the great- eft offices, not by his learning, his parts, his political abilities, or his application ; but by his air, his add re fa, his manners and his gra¬ ces. The Due dc Richlieu, his p.c-xt exam¬ ple, rofe not by the purity of his character, the depth of his knowledge, or any uncom¬ mon penetration or lagacity ; but by his en¬ gaging exterior he pleafed—and by pleating became a favoiite. As thefe two men iofe to great eminence without virtue, the natural inference is that vhtne is fuperiluotif ; and confequently the great ohje^t which the no¬ ble lord had in view for his ton, could be ob¬ tained without any iolid meiit. Indeed vir¬ tue ftandsoiuu 1.1 the way of thofe who whh. Richlieu nor lord Aberdeen would have been diftinguifhed had they been men of worth j for they never would have debafed themfelvea with flattery and diffimulation. The Duke of Onuund, v.'ho polTefTed this artificial po- liteiu-fs in the molt perfccl decree, was ths weakeft but the beft bred man in the king¬ dom. The Duke of Marlborough was alio a paragon of politenefs. He had wound up and tuned his whole machine to pleafe : but this was all art in him ; art of which he we'll knew and enjoyed the advantages ; for no man had ever more intciiot ambition, pride and avarice than he had. Such are the mod¬ els fele-Sted by the noble author to prove the great excellence of his maxim. It was rath¬ er unlucky that in the whole range of hifto- ry he could find no character eminent for virtue, who was a perfect mafter of the man¬ ners which he praifes fo much. As he did not want fagacity to felect proper examples, if they could have been found, it is fair to fuppofe that a ftrici adherence to his maxim formed no part of the characters of thofe whom we are acctiftomed to admire. That gentlenefs of manner which appears ct fifffc fight fo agreeable, is a mode oi deceit, a concealment of our feelings, which truth and virtue cannot fancxion. liiliorypre- fents us with no great man uniformly prac- tifing this maxim ; becaufe it is impoflihle for any perfon who refpedts the dignity of hu¬ man nature, loves virtue and religion, to re- ftrain his indignation when he hears them reviled. It is impofilble to pay tlte fame rcf- pe(5t to wickednefs and goodnefa ; this would be to level one of the barriers between vice and virtue ; to deftroy that motive to probi¬ ty which weighs more wich many than any other. He mentions Cxl'.ir ns a per¬ fon eminently polite ; and he might have named Alcihiades as the belt bred man of all antiquity : but where were their virtues ?— Why does he not quote fome characlcr em¬ inent for his moral worth ?

( Firfl door South of Walker's {lotel. J ample, fo engaging in dulgent to others ; fo ready to forgive. This eminent fage pofleffed mere true po- litenefs than all the artificial characters which Lord Chtuerrield names. But Socrates dif- dained to flatter, or to conceal his real fenti- ments. Had he been of our modern fchoel of politenefs he would have faved his own l;fe by the help of fome of its deceptions. All thofe n.en whofe lives we admire, and who perifhed in the caufe of truth, ate con¬ temptible in the opinion of a polite gentle¬ man, as they fulTered from a foo'.i.'h obftwa- cy, in his opinion extremely rude.
