[Page] 68 who possessed them, by reason of their scratching claws. They were also very difficult to catch; and when caught, if they were not well guarded, would immediately fly away. I was therefore much surprised to see so many pursuers after them; especially when so many flew toward the great gulf. The proper name of these birds was riches: though they were by many supposed to be happiness. I saw innumerable companies gathering the flowers which were so plenty on this side of the hill; but I could not help being surprised to see them lose all their imaginary beauty as soon as they gathered. Yet they were sought for with eagerness, and often allured many to the dreadful abyss at the foot of the hill. But when they began to fall, they endeavored in vain to ascend and return to the other side, for the hill was so steep, that

; and to choose for him an employment, not incompatible with his genius, though it may not be exactly correspondent to it. No. XVIII. April 20-30, 1796. A Vision. Mr. Lucubrator, I never had any \great/ opinion of dreams but always thought of them no more than wandering thoughts, or imaginary scenes and therefore took not much notice of them. But having had one lately more extraordinary than common, I thought I

[Page] 67 Immediately when the inhabitants were placed on the top of the hill they began to descend, some on one side and some on the other. Many fell down and tumbled out of sight before they advanced any distance on either side. On the side of vice a very large river ran with a rapid current directly down the hill. By the smell of the water, which was very powerful, it appeared to be a mixture of different sorts of spirituous liquors. A vast multitude advanced toward the river and entered into several boats which lay in it, filled with various sorts of provision: but I was very much surprised to see them all as soon as they entered the boats, send with a rapid course down into the great gulf. This river was called pleasure by some; but by most it was denominated intemperance. Another half were perusing several birds which flew round the hill. In the hands of others they appeared very beautiful; but were exceeding troublesome to those

and misery. No. XXVII. June 23, 1796. On the disturbances among Country People. Mr. Lucubrator, Since I removed into the country, I have had many opportunities of observing the manners and disposition of our people; and of forming an idea of the common vices and vanities of country terrors. With your permission, I will make a few observations on this subject. It appears to me that the chief disturbances

[recto] in this neighborhood arise from a kind of envious pride. Scandal, envy, jealousy, and many other vices originate from this source. Pride always arises at being the highest, and envies those who are above its overt stake. Hence arises jealousy and scandal, and all those arts which tend to degrade another, or raise itself above him. But to set this matter in a clearer fight. I will give you a picture of their common situations. Mr. Clarke, one of our neighbors, having found a considerable source of money, advertised it in the news—papers; after a considerable interval, and none applying for the money, he laid it out in such a manner as he thought proper. But as soon as it was known abroad, the whole town was in an uproar. Every one of his neighbors was filled with anxiety, and expressed great concern, not so much in compassion to the person who had lost the money, as in envy to him who found it. Much time and labor were spent in the enquiry after the proper owner of it, but all proved unsuccessful; and they had the misfortune to behold their neighbor; who was before, their inferior, rising above them.

[recto] No. XXVI. June 21, 1796. On Idleness. Nothing is more certain however some may think of it than that man cannot be happy in idleness. However easy in his circumstances, without employment he is the most miserable of human beings. He is a drone in society useless to his acquaintance and a burden to himself. Like an animal he exists merely to consume the fruits of the earth; or rather like

[Page] 92 But while we contemplate the blessings resulting from the declaration of our independence, let us consider that they will continue no longer, than while the laws and original principles of our government are strictly attended to and religiously observed. Let us consider that agriculture is the foundation of every trade, and the greatest support of our independence. Let us discourage indolence luxury the most destructive foes to happiness, and cultivate habits of economy, frugality, and industry, on which the wealth of nations depends. Let us encourage manufacturers, commerce, and every art which embellishes human nature and tends to advance the happiness and prosperity of our states. Let us vindicate our independence and the rights of man, by a sacred adherence to liberty and the principles of a free government; and prepare an asylum for mankind, from the savage cruelty and ambition of imperial butchers and unprincipled oppressors.
