with less trouble, is. wr.ere you nave a tidit smoke-house, in a coo! situation, to let them hang in the smoke house, and perhaps once in two to four weeks, make a little smoke under them. Should hams

Speak 111 of no one without a Jnst Cause.
There are many peop.e in the world who are in the habit of speaking lightly or contemptuously of their neighbors, and some who do not scruple to treat those who nre absent with the greatest disrespect, by chowing up their faults to those who are present, without ercr alluding to any good qualities they possess. There is nothing so dttfJt.ihle as this habit of backbiting in society; it often produces the greatest bitterness of feeling between those who ought to live in ptace and good fellowship towards
each other, and it never dors any gooJ. It generally arises from a selfish feeling, but soinPlimes from thoughtlessness; it eiiher rase it i .jnrioes to society, and out to be condemned by every wiul-mean-ing and sensible person. Seltih persons have generally such an over-appreciation of themselves, and the situation they hold in society, that they are apt to speak of ethers with con'empt, and
are crrn happy when they discover the

est fortifications in Lurope could rto withstand these extraordinary powers for a single hour, in river ways and against stockades, as India, the largest arraie would be annihilated without a chance of escape; and the most difficult passe would be utterly untenable against their operation. The country might by their application be rendered impregnable; for 100 sail of the line might be cssilv destroyed by a single small ship constructed on the principles I have had explained to me; and whenever it might be necessary to call this power into action, its effect would be attained at a trifling expens, and. upon the shortest notice. licvohttionary .inecdotc. To show how little concord at one period prevailed in Congress at the time of the revolution, die following anecdote has been ielated. On the 8lh of .May. 17G J. while Congress va in session at Philadelphia, the sound of heavy artillery was heard
down the Delaware. It was oon known
to proceed from the gun boats which had hern sei.t lo protect the liver from the I'ritish cruisers. Hitherto no sound ef actusl warfare had readied tins poition of the province, whoe inhabitant were rather more pacific in their tonethan was suited to the ardor and rx.r.-pc. ration of New Enghnd. As the sound of the fust gun burst upon the ear of Congress, old Samuel Adams jumped upon his feet, and cried with exultation, to the infinite dismay (if some timid niPiubers who sat near him, "Thank God' the game begun; none can stop it now."
