[Page] 101 however contradictory or absurd, we cannot expect to please all; nay, if we do so, we shall most certainly displease every one. It is therefore sufficient that we attempt pleasing one half of the world; for we shall then please more than if we aimed to amuse the whole. I do not recommend party writing; all I mean is that we ought not to be disappointed if we should have many enemies

[Page] 102 Though merit is the only useful quality a book can possess; yet authors nowadays must not expect their works will be received in exact proportion to the degree of this quality; nor yet can they depend wholly on fame; or any other circumstances for their reception. Works of merit may possibly be admired as far as they are known; but unless fame has paved the way for their reception

[Page] 103 Many are apt to condemn what they do not understand, and to give their opinion of a book before they have read half of it; or from any insignificant reflection or remark they happen\e/d to hear or read, draw their idea of the whole. If the author is known, his works are generally received according to the opinion his readers have of him, with\out/ considering their merit. And those

[Page] 124 disposition springs may of the evils of life. We should therefore endeavor to check and restrain this fickleness of temper, and bring it under the dominion of reason. But so long as we disregard all order in business, and conform to no settled rules of conduct, this can never be done. A steady even temper is never connected with irregularity in business: but on the contrary

[Page] 126 trifling offences with severity. Such a spirit is quite oposite to a revengeful disposition. It is incompatible with envy and malevolence. A revengeful temper is destitute of many good qualities; it is also compounded of many bad ones, some of which are of the blackest kind. Envy and malice are the characteristics of an envious temper. Whoever is influenced by them seeks only to hurt

[Page] 122 No. XXXl/. September 28, 1796. On Regularity in business. Order and regularity in all kinds of employment are very commendable.
