Mr. ORACLE, Tlicio la mi greater abu*e in the world than custom and opinion. I was lately conversing with a friend, wno, amoog other things, lamented Thar the state of society in this country was such as to afford little pleasure, it being made up of persons uho bad filled all sort- <;f situations. That many who sprang From ignoble parents, were, by a favourable tern in their fortunes, raised to the first consequence, and it was no unuseal thing to see Merchants with their Clerks. Attornies with their Apprentices, all mingling together in the same social cir¬ cle. At first I was prepared to hear a loud complaint of the deficiency of in¬ formation, and had almost be^un an a- poloffy by pleading the infancy of the settlement ; but I fouud there was quite learning enough for my friend, the only defect being the want of title* to give it rejish. This prejudice is widely extend¬ ed. Men of rank generally undervalue those who are without it, while they in their turn regard it as the chief good, which shall make folly wit. and assurance dignity ; unworthy treatment ©f every kind, is amply repaid by a smile from the great man, and a nod of recognition, or an invitation to dinner, is cheaply purchased by months of fawning assi- duity. If gentility is only fo be reckoned from long Pedigree or Empire, our first parent ranks higher than an Alexander, for he was Lord of the whole world, yet he earned his bread by the sweat of his brow. If it belongs to greatness of Soul, who shall contend with a Socrates : yet he was a Plebeian. And l'lato dignified his l*1illu8Qffltjf !<- jsFiodtifcS&q iiut by birth. A series of revolations has turned the world topsy turvy, good sense has nearly been lost in the confusion, while froth and vanity still adhere to it. Wit is no longer quickness of fancy united to ge¬ nius. 'Tis the bon mot of a libertine, or the miserable pun of a man of fashion. Wisdomisstill the faculty of judging cor¬ rectly, but beware how you venture be¬ yond the points of a horse, cr the talents of a coachman. Independence, in the vocabulary of fashion, means a constant sacrifice of your opinions and fueling*, and fii to laugh" signifies merriment, not excited by gaiety, but by a speech from the head of the table. This lamentable folly daily increases. Conversation, which before improved the mind, is degenerating into a eommou placejargon, to be understood by the meanest intellect. Education i~ render¬ ed useless, for a man, 'ifter spending <;d much of his time at College, when intro¬ duced into mixed company, hns not a sin^leopportunity of displaying his know¬ ledge. I have heard, I think, that in some parts of Germany, nobleman were formerly instructed in a trade, lest a re- verse of fortune should throw tliem on the world without means of subsistence 5 and it is said the Grand Turk exercises himself, during hid retirement, in me¬ chanics. I am sure you will agree with me, that this is setting a much better example to the world than the idle hab- ip of Ul^Sfi *&• prefcnii tP §«&$«£ r cannotfcdpJtafijiBg that it would afford much Bmtmfranti if ,,is Majesty's R"prec/-fti<ifiv<* i\a to hold a Drawing Re<m for those on' >" whom polite uduen- ti"- and t-ue worrrJ had qualified. What an insight rtr«n hniW*« nature would the examine* |stford? What a correct e- tiniate of th* >-sef»t stale of morality ? Ho., many full 11 res=»ed heads,unfurn^!>td within, would be se«n retiring in derpair of-»vcracquiring th'* necev-:ir> requisiti s? How many ladies, crowned with *ar- lands, and girt around with lace, mitst bewail the impossibility of displaytnp charms, heightened by painted trim¬ mings, which had ( &&t them no much la¬ bour ? But what a?' assemblage within I Splendour reflected by presiding virtue. riiodesty unabashed byassurniue, humil¬ ity unawed by prirb* wisdom utnontn - led by fashion, would eviucetothe wi \ Id how much inferior rank and wealth at* to genius and taste. Custom and opinion, however, at pre¬ sent bear down every thing, and without assistance from poisons if power, altho' it may be checked, there is little hope of effectual resistance.
