"n Midi DIVERSITY. MORAL. THE force of habit, and the extreme danger of fixing any bad habit, particularly th it of drunkennefs, may be aptly illuftrated by moializin g the following piece of natural h/ltory : " On the coaft of Norway is« a dreadful whirlpool, called by the natives Maelllroom, which fignifies the navel of the fea. The body of the waters which form this whirl¬ pool is extended in a circle above thirteen miles in circumference. In the niidft of this ftands a rock againft which the tide, in its ebb, is dafhed with inconceivable fury • when it inftantly fwallows up all things which come within the fphere of its violence. " No lkiil in the mariner, nor ftrength of rowing, can work an efcape. rJ"he failor at the helm finds the fhip at firft go in a rent oppofite to his intentions ;- iiis veilel's motion, though flow in the beginning, becomes every mo- mem more rapid ; it goes round in Circles, ftili narrower and nar- rowee till at m it is dafhed a- gamft the rock and entirely dif- appcarV place in it, being engaged writing a the ufual time of letting out, requefted a few minutes delay, but in vain. Mr. Whip was inexorable ; he infilled on fetting off, adding by way of reproach, he was fure no gentle¬ man would afk him to Hay a moment. So - the gentleman was obliged to leave his let¬ ter unfini/hed, and the driver fet off at full fpeed. When they had run about half a mile, the waggoner's hat falling off, he /top¬ ped to pick it up. The gentleman feizfd the reins and drove away, leaving Surlyboots behind, who humbly requefted the new waff- goner to ftop. This was refufed, with a ineer, and a remaik, that no gentleman would aik him to ftay a moment. Brother Whip was then without remedy, and obliged to trudge on foot to Hampton, a comfortable walk of neaily twelve miles. The Vice-Chancellor of Trinity College, Dublin, was remarkably fond of ham. He frequently afferted that he thought men ought to adhere to the principles in which they were educated, and abide by the cuf- toms which belonged to the creed of theiY fathers. His worihip being once at a tabic1 where a hoi ham was brought into the room,' the; flavor feemed to delight him ; but before' he'coul J make an incifion, one of the compa-" ny requefted he'would anfwerthe followhU qtteftwB*—IfjoB Sir, had been educated1 a Jew, how would you have acted, if, when1 you were very hungry, foCh a ham as this* nad been placed before you ?__« Sir * he- replied, « I would have pulled off my haV made a low bow, and faid with A grippal almojl thou perfuadeft me to be a Chnjlian."
