write response essays to other, published essays, or to events in his or her life. This would, in a way, place the manuscript in both the scrapbook category, as it is a means to commemorate the works of others, and as a commonplace book, as it is a place to reflect upon those works. This would imply that the creation of the book was a personal project, and that the manuscript was not meant for publication, or possibly even for sharing among family and neighbors.

[recto] {..} with other men. The vicissitudes of nature are common to all; Summer, Winter, day and night, will not favor the rich more than the poor. All that distinguishes them from other people is their riches, which often serve to increase their misery, and load them with troubles. At first they are vexed with the thoughts how to acquire an estate; then how to keep and preserve it; and afterwards how to increase it: for though they have much, yet they are not content with it, but seek for more with the same eagerness as when they had but little. After all, they have the mortification to find that what they have got, soon falls to pieces and deserts them; or that they themselves must soon leave it to others. Thus they are always distracted with hopes and fears, and enjoy none of the comforts of life: while the poor man enjoys peace of mind, and health of body; and by labor provides himself with necessaries, and procures an appetite, where the dainties and idleness of the rich will seldom allow.

[Page] 44 A man who is not rich may be a good man and enjoy a considerable degree of happiness; but he cannot be so serviceable to the public, as if he possessed a considerable fortune. His precepts and example will be less regarded, and his authority have less dignity and respect, than generally attend a wealthy character. It is also difficult for an indigent person to revise himself to any public station, let his merits be what they will. He will be looked upon, as imprudent in his affairs; and his poverty be attributed to his mismanagement, or want of merit. And tho it be absurd to judge a man's merit by his success in his undertakings, yet it very often happens, that a man's good or ill fortune is occasioned by his good or bad management of affairs. It is certain that the frugal and industrious are generally rich, while the luxurious and slothful are most always poor, if their ancestors have not left them a patrimony.

Very few men attend to any thing else, before they have acquired the necessities of life. For a mind perplexed with fears and apprehensions of poverty, can seldom indulge itself in speculation

[Page] 41 part, I envy you not for your happiness, nor wish any other evil to befall you, than what your happiness unavoidably brings with it. It may with truth be said, that men of your description are the only persons who enjoy the wonderful influence of enchanted liquor. Others only tast of it, without feeling any of its powerful and remarkable effects. Your friends can witness that you are lively, jocose, and good natured. They also know that you are as rich as you desire, have every thing you want, and oftentimes a great deal more. Who can despise you, when your drunkenness makes all your virtues more conspicuous? It is well known, that you are liberal to your favorites; friendly and good natured to excess, as social as a sycophant, and as silly as you please. You are so free and liberal, even to your enemies, that you always give them their full reward, and very often more than is due.

[Page] 45 A poor man will also be considered as having greater temptations to defraud the public, that such are placed above the common necessaries of life. When he is in continual apprehension of poverty, and in want of a thousand things which are possessed by others, it will be unsafe to trust him with such offices as frequently present opportunities in which fraud and injustice may be committed with impunity. He will be tempted to neglect public matters, to attend to his own: and cannot be supposed to have equal concern for the security and interest of the community, to those of greater fortune. If he has no property of his own, it is probable that he will have little regard for the protection of other people's. And it has been often the case that persons of desperate fortunes, who had nothing to fear, have wished for a revolution, in hopes, by some lucky accident, to be exalted to wealth and honor. The propriety of chiefly encouraging the richest members will farther appear, by con-

[Page] 46 considering that the wealthy are generally the best qualified for a public station. Ease and plenty are the great sources of knowledge, and those who are not possessed of them, will probably remain in ignorance and be unacquainted with the knowledge of the world. And such as are unacquainted with the views and capacities of mankind, can do very little for the interest of the community, let their intentions be ever so honest or sincere. His motives are mean and detrimental to liberty. His sentimens are narrow and contracted, and will not allow of his making those generous sacrifices required by his country, when its liberty is endangered. Ignorant of the view and interests of all classes of the community, he will be led away by the sophistical arguments of some interested politicians, to favor some particular class of men; and will make grievous mistakes in his administration, without having any design to injure or disturb the interest of the community.
