The last and most import an' of these de l.oations, i this, viz: 'l ii.it il any considerable armament proceeded from the pons of Spain, while the Peninsula was in the occupation of u French army. that it WAt'd not be considered ns a Sm. rush Armament, Alter maturely eon. sidenn? this declaration, whiohhe held io be of great importance, and which went far to supply whit hid appeared defective, and to remove utut Ind seemed to him ambiguous in the lormer decl irations respectii i j the policy of this country, he cutdnly judged, tint it so much na'nmed the ptactical grcund ol di'.Verence between him and the Ministers of the Crown on the subject of South America, as to make it improper for him to persevere in it. fie was also samtwhat influ meed by what he htd heard, not in so authentic a shape as the declara tions he had just now referred to, that France had actually declined to be a party to the threatened Con press in i tie AfTtirs of S. America, lie was inclined to believe that this was the fact. Mr. Canning said it might be deemed, that he ws cal'ed upon to say something in rely to the above, but, on the whole, he thought he should best con-ult his duty by abst lining Imni off; ring any remarks. Hut he beced the house to bear in mind that he wished to be judged by the explicit declarations which lie had hittwlf made w hen the sub ject camr before them in the regular course of debate, and n't by any construction put by his Honorable and Learned Friend upon declarations which had been made else where, and which he (Mr. Canning) neither affirmed nor denied.

I tlu u cont hided from these retl cti .is, that the indiutrions man d.d not speak his sentiments ; and that the lazy, man was m ntbiieiitallv of nn (.pinion, that he was lai-e. The moment I drew this cotirltisiori, mv'niind was e itillenK'd with this re lleriiob : What i f the reason that some of my m i(ihhours nsks me a hi;he" price th.-.n others, for the nt ressarii s I need ? I immediately bagan to '-.(insider, whether it was my lazy orindustrnu:.) neighbours, that were mi lull ot extortion. Hut I found that my lazy neighbours v.rtv a s3 generous, and as reasonable in their charges, as my industrious neighbours. .1 tin ti com billed, that these generous ancTjW siiiu.iiK.us principles in men, did originate

l ion. the h. dnts ot iviuitrv and Laziness: but!

that it was a native d;'oMtion l' mankind,.

and discoverable in some, more than others,' even in infancy. Ami in my reflections, I was led to believe, with a few exceptions, that m y industiious neighbours were fully, it' not more severe, in their di allies, than my careless i eu;hbours : because I thought that many of mv industrious neighbours wrr industrous, because they were actuated by love of gain, ami motivts of self-interest; and of course, would deal more closely with me, than my buy neighbours. I was then carried away w tli other ideas, that floated on the surface ol mv brain; at d amongst the rest, I was stricken with a questional idea, whether mo ra'.ity or immorality, had the worst influence on religion. Now, I would not have thought this a question, but some of my neighbours told me, that they had seen a man thatfmly believed it, I could hardly credit what il.ey si;d ; but knowing them to be men of truth, I adm fed it as truth, with some al lowance for misunderstanding. I then, immediately begin to reflect, to see whether I could believe such a decirm. ; and in my reflections. I pictured out religion as the object of good. I then reflected, 'hat " all actions are good or evil, according to their tendencies." I then thought, if the tendency of niorali'y in socie'y. was more detrimental to the existence of re!'g:nn, than immorality if religion and roguery were nearer illied, and more congenial to each o'her, than religion and morality; and if leligion stood a better cliar.ee to be promoted amongst thieves and robbers, than amongst moral men and if all the horrors of anarchy ;.nd confusion,

resulting from a depraved state of society, be a less injury, and have a less influence on religion, than all the peace, harmony, and tranquility of good government: I thought if all ibis be-true, I would believe the doctrine, and act consistently with it, and train up my children to all manner of t ice and immorality: And mt reovir, I thought if tuch a doctiincbe true, that our government had better enter into measures to prevent the preaching of the fiospel, and destroy all moralizing instmr ons in tne government, and 'hen the government, to destroy itselt. I inlet d, 1 thought, if the doctrine be true, that it w. sahandy way to arrive at religion ; and I had no doubt but that it would have many votaries, and a continued succession of revivals through future agt s. I then reflected, why i,hould I trouble my brain about this doctrine, because no body would believe it. My mind tb'-n suddenly deserted the theme, :.nd fixed itself on the interpretation ol some scripture, where no labourer, were admitted into the vineyard 'of tbe Lord, after " a'nu!: the eleventh In ur of tlu d v.'' And I was rt fleeting on what was meant by this term day. At leng'h 1 conclud d, that it must mean human life, as human lite is sometime s c.abeu a dav. I therefore began to reflect on the common length of human life; ami for the c nvt nn nee ot calnr ation, 1 e'tle I upon the length of human hie, tobelitty five years. 1 hen, conceiving 1 had v;ot the length of my day, i comtne..r(d calculating the length of the hours of that tbn. I divide ! tne fit y-live years or th" day of ! utti in lite, by the eleven iiouis, winch exactly made the b ntb of one ot those In uvs, to le five vens long. The., as nu labourers weie admitted after the ileventii to ur, I w.s ob'.igetl to ce Delude, md ration A y ti o, that if a man who lived to ihe are el frn -five years, and lived nv re tlun fihy years of that id'eMme, in sin, that he could not be saved; b-causj this biLti.ce ' h.s h;c J'et to come, was the eleven1 h Inaic of his day, inwheh no 1 jbourci were ad inlted.
