Originally in the Edgefield Advertiser, -c*- EY RUTLSDGE. NO* V. Vhc Effects of Sqiarale State Secession on the Commerce and Prosperity of the State. It is easily to bo seen, wo think, that the Commerce and prosperity of the Stale will he lcreased arnJ not dimnusiica oy separate ocaie occasion. Charleston has now an exporting rade of 810,000,000, and an importing busiess of only 810,000,000, since she is a mere lioronghfare for at least onc-linlf the imports iiat enter her harbor. Undor a separate government, while the hnorts upon which she derives Yhercantile proIs, would at once rise from $10,000,000 -) $15,000,000 (the just imports upon the xports proper of the State) the exports om products of other States would, proably, not be much diminished; for Charles^n, under our exercise of free trade, would furish the best exporting market for Southern and Vestcrn produce; and although the governlent might impose heavy restrictions upon imorts from Carolina into other States, it could nposc none upon thoexports of other States in> Carolina. Charleston would still bo a fine lart for the produce of the neighboring Stales, ud' though prohibited from selling Ilium mcrliandize, she could direct her ships laden with omrnodities derived from this produce, to any ort in the Union, or to any part of the world, ud compete in a fair field with tho Merchants f other countries. Cut let us estimate tho benefits Charleston ould derive from the natural increase of the apulation and productive industry of the State, 'aking the increase of our population, every ?cade, to be 20 per cent., in ten years from lis time, unless from unforeseen causes, there iil be added to our present numbers about 50,000 souls. Now it is a sell-evident proposim, that, in every community, each member is consumer; and all who do not live by chari- , contribute somehow to production by their ' dustrv, their capital, or their land.* This is < universally true, that, in Political Economy, » is become a maxim."every grown person is ' t acciimulate.il capital< The productive industry, then, of our State, i .".dually increasing every year, would, at the 1 d of ten years, yield an annual increase in < ir exports of more than 83,000,000; for this uuld be about the productive value of 130,000 I habitants after deducting domestic consump- ! m. Take, for example, tiic three Districts of s ibeville, Edgefield and Newberry. In 1840 i ey iiad an aggregate population of 80,553, j lite and black. Their aggregate production i Cotton v as 19,244,714 lhs.f This at 10 t would make the expoiiing value of each i habitant 824. Supposing the 130,000 in- t ease of our population to have the same pro- t ,<live capacity, they would furnish, as already \ tied, annual exports more in value than S3,- t >0,000. 'l'hesc would yield, in a profitable \ reign trade, nearly -$4,000,000 of imports, t unco Charleston, in the next ten years would \ vo, from this source, an increase of her pro- f ul mercantile profits mi £3,000,000of exports, a d nearly £4,000,000 of imports.in ail, £7,- p 10,000, This calculation might he extended rough a succession of decades, showing tiie ge increase of our produce and trade, tili, , >iii over population and other causes, the eseiit ratio between production and popula- t mi he destroyed. i Hut the p.oductive industry of the State x :>uld he increased in another way. At pres- j t, capital ol something like £5,000,000, ho- , g transferred to the North, is annually with- t awn from the productive agency of the State. |, inlrodui ing improved methods in our various 'j uiiohcs of industry and in facilitating our in -comiiiunication, this sum might add con- j lerably to tiie exporting capacity oi tne state, i annual saving of $5,000,000 would give, , tiio end of 10 years, exclusive of interest, a ( ed capital of $50,000,000. Allow $1,000,- { 0 of tiiis to he unproductively consumed hy t 1 fcitate Government, there would still re- t i n $ 10,000,000 for productive agency. The v productive power of this sum, invested in e usual occupations in our .State, would fur- [ ih exporting products to tire value of $2,000,- ; 10. Thus -hhige/ivld District, which by the ; cent Census,J has an aggregate wealth of t 10,000,000, yields exports in Cotton alqpe to ( c value of $800,000. 1 In addition to this, there would ho, under a r parnlt Government, several hundred thousand \ liars of coiuutodilies for public consumption, . hich would go to swell the imports of the | .ate. ( From these data it will be reasonable to es- ( nale the exports proper of South Carolina, a* j e end often years, should llio iState be allowI to enjuy the fruits of a peaceful indepen- i :nco, at about £ 1 S,000,000, and her imports ; more than 62U,UU0,000. This will add to e present business of Charleston mercantile oliis on 610,000,001) of imports, which now erely pass through her streets, adding a mere illo to the waailh of the city, while her rx ' ir/.v will be equal if not larger than they are present. And this increase will gradually ) on for centuries according to population ' id production. J From her facilities, moreover, in combining ill and capital, Charleston would become a ' ' Say Pol. Economy. i Itlgefi.-M with a pi>|iii!aiion of jirolucc'l 7/> 1.1,12.') I ha of Cotton ibevillo 2'J,351, wherry lb,350, 3,105,107 ( A"i'rr.H0.553 i.'.2|17l J Ohmi* -f ^10. I I IKdgdk'M Advertiser I ] considerable manufacturing Town, not morely of Cotton, but of various ;uul useful commodi- ties, especially of impIenWg and machinery for mechanical, agricultural and manufacturing purposes. With her genius and capital pro- pcrly directed to this branch of industry, she might add immensely to her wealth and pros- pcrity. Only a few Towns and Cities, whose natural advantages fi)r Commerce poiir the wealth of nations'into their harbors, become very prosperous and wealthy without i.vmufacLures. Charleston should look to this as a source of.great prosperity. What now are the prospects of the State at large ? The increase of its population and productive industry, the saving of the honest gains of its citizens from the plunderers of the North, and the low rates at'which tho commodities of other nations would enter our ports, would largely augment the wealth of the i.>fate',' and add infinitely to the comforts, improvements, and refinements of civilized life. To this progressive advancement, we can see no limit within many centuries. Our lands are susceptible of high cultivation, and our products arc of the most valuahle'character. Our labor, also, whatever the deluded enthusiasts of Europe and the North may interpose, is the cheapest and most productive of any on the globe. In what section of the world, can a peasantry be found that produce equal to our slaves ? Is it not a Known >ucr, that the wluto agricultural laborers ot most countries, are usually an indolent race ? Tlicv labor little more than half their time.contenting themselves with moderate means of subsistence, and often directing their labor without capital or skill. And what is worthy oi note, while the slave labor of the South, under the control of intelligent planters, is more productive, it is, also, highly useful and profitable, ft i3 directed almost exclusively to the creation of utility. All our products are actually necessaries in every quarter of the civilized globe.not furnishing luxuries for the consumption of the rich alone, hut comforts i:id conveniences, likewise, for the middling ind 'poorer classes, among whom the great hulk of consumption takes place. Hence, there 3 with us little danger of over-production. We nay reckon upon almost a perpetuity of our commerce and trade, while our power of pro- luclion, will l»e limited, centuries to come, only >y the extent of our Territory, after every acre >f land shall have been highly cultivated and mproved. What is to hinder us from rivalling hmglanu in ner prodigious accumulation ul ( :apitnl ? While \vc remain in the Union, bearing the ( mrthons which, lor the last twenty-five years, , lave been imposod on us, we must content our- j elves with a very moderate advancement in ( voailh and prosperity. Charleston will improve slowly; and a heavy draw-back will bo j "fit by the .State on account of the immense | Irakis from her industry, made by the govornnent and the North. No bright visions of fi>- f tire greatness and magnificence will occur to j he minds of her citizens; but, in the gloomy t ista of the future, they will behold only the , oils and dangers lhat beset their career. They ' vill be doomed to wage perpetual warfare with t he wild elements of fanaticism and oppression, vhile the fruits of their labor will be seized £ rom 1»« fore their eyes by the rude hands of an c rJiifp-frv rmwiMimi.nt. to fnr>ii Jind f'lff.Mi flir> ;recdy monopolists of the North. ^ - .[1*1 t A:; Ei-opusrnxT..Tlio Nashville American c >f the 13tli of July, gives an account of a run- t iwny match in that city. The young lady af- i or descending to the arms of her lover, by i nouns of a ro;>o ladder, from her bed room 1 vindow, was in the act of starting from the j internal mansion, when the front door burst \ »pen, and out rushed the father, mother, and 2 he balance of the children, with sundry dar- r ties, masculine and feminine, all en dishabilcc. j I'ho American says: s "The racket was as great as that created by c Signer logo, of Venitian memory, when he c trouscd Brnhnntio .after the abduction of the i fcntle Desdcmona. Our readers can imagine he rage and astonishment of the sire and dam. le demanded the instant surrender of his 1 laughter, but the young lovor wounhi t near ' o it, nor the lady. Siic was ;is spunky as ;i villi cat.the father threatened.the old lady ^ tormed :>t:d almost went into hysterics* The * over cooly drew a pistol from his bosom and inlicated his intention to go ahead at all hnz- j trds. A critical moment oftentimes decides i he fate of empires; and just so then.the fa- 1 her wisely concluded that since he could not 1 irealc up the match, it was best to let them < narry at home. Ho hold out his hand to the 1 over and made the proposition, which.was ac- 5 .opted upon condition that the minister should ie called in to solemnize the nuptials. A rev?reud gentleman was aroused by one of the jompnisy, and 111 a lew minutes the noose was ii'iisroliihJy tio<i a!:ont their necks. "'i'!ie rope ladder remained hanging at the .viiulow until the morning, but they made no ittempt, we learn, to escape the second time. Singular Count..In the South American Republic of Chili, we learn from an article in ho Christian lleviow, there is a Domestic Join t."it tribunal that decides in the case of iiinors complaining of the refusal of parents to lerinit their marriage. Unless the defendant ;au show satisfactory cause for the refusal, the ( L'ourt immediately decrees the marriage to take place." The effect of this arrangement it is .tilted, is to cause runaway matches to be comparatively scarce in Chili. , A man i if a hundred pounds weight has gen- rally four pounds of brain. There is no other uiiinal that has as much. An ox from eight !<> nine hundred pounds weight has but one pound W.« count in the human body f'.voliu:: dred and forty-nine bones, to-wit: fourteen in t!ic brain, forty-six i« the other parts of the head and neck, sixty-two in the arms and hands, and sixty in the legs and feet The bones of the human body make np the third part of its weight. A full grown men has from twenty to twenty-five pounds of blood, which passes from eighteen to twenty times through ihe heart hi one hour. For the Camden Journal. I think of thee when morning springs From sleep, with plumage bathed in dew, And like a young bird litis Jier wings Of gladness on the welkin blue. And when at noon the breath of love O'er flowers and streams is straying free, And sent in music from tlic grove, I think of thee.I think of thee. I think of ihoc when soft and wide The evening spreads her robes of light, And like a young and timid bride Sits blushing in the arms of night. And when the moon's sweet crescent springs In light aVr Heaven's deep, wavelesssea; And stars are forth like blessed things, I think of thee.I think of thee. I think of thee!.that eye of flame, Those tresses, falling light and free, Tint brow, where " Beauty wrrte9 her name," I think of thee.I think of thee. Camden, August 11, 1851. Aloiirator. Charity, op. Lovf. of the NpiGHnoR.. To love our neighbor is not only to will and do goo l to a relation, a friend and a good man, but also to a stranger, an enemy, and a bad man. Charily however is exercised after different ways towards the former objects and the latter; towards a relation and friend it is expressed by direct acts of kindness but towards an enemy and a wicked person, by indirect acts of kindness, as by exhortation, by correction, and by'punishment for their amendment. Thus a judge, who according to law and justice punishes a criminal, is in the exercise of love towards bis neighbor, since he thus takes the most effectual method to reclaim and amend the criminal, and to provide at the same time for the good of his fellow-citixens, by securing them against his future fraud and violence. It in like manner is plain to every one, that afr.ther jxpresses his love towards his children by cor 'Cding them when they do amiss; and on the jther hand, that is he docs not correct them ivhen they deserve correction, he then loves ;hcir vices, and such love cannot bo called iharity. So again whore a person resists the i.ssaults of an enemy, and either beats him in ils own defence, or commits him to prison for lis fututc security, yet still retaining such a disjosition of mind as to be wiling to become .s friend, lie acts from a principle of charity, n like manner wars, whic\\\We for their end he protection of our country and the church, ire not inconsistent with charity; the end for vhich they are undertaken will shew whether hey are attended with charity or not. Since then charity, with respect to its origin, "Mi'-Ief irnA/Lti'il] nrAAil.\V ill lino *fo unei /is11 -;io i tn ^vv/u-»»ui, anu ^v/viu- »' lit uao no I vOI lence in the internal man, it is plain that when i man possessed of charity resist an enemy, mnishes the guilty, and chastises the evil, he libels this hy means of the external man, and >f consequence, when lie has effected it, he renrns into the charity which is in the internal nan, and then as far as ho is able, or as far as t is expedient, wishes well to him whom he sns punished or chastised, and from a princi>lo of good-will does him good. Charity, vhcre it is genuine, is always attended with «al for what is good, which zeal in the external man may look liko anger and flaming fire, r'eton the repentance of its adversary, it is intently extinguished and appeased: but the rase is quite different with thoso who have no liaritv; their zeal is anger and hatred, for their ntcrnal man is on fire with these evil passions. . 1 hint to Bnrro*icr$.-\ correspondent of the loston Post relates the following anecdote of iobert G. Hhaw, one of the merchant princes: Wo *y ?i in nliAiif Mr ihinv which was never before in print, and vh-ioh wo think will amuse our readers and not jive ofienco to our venerable friend. Wo happened to l,o present when the occurrence took ilaco. A gentleman mot Iiiin in the street, and ipon a lirief conversation asked him to lend nm ton dollars, as ho was short.not an unjommon thing for him at that time, It was nany months ago. Mr. Shaw, raising his spectacles, replied: "Yes, sir with pleasure, ou one condition." "What is that?" "Why that when wo next meet, you will turn four face towards me. look nleasnnt. and not 1 f urn it way. I lent Mr. a small sum oi' noiicy about a month ago, and ever since that ime ho has cut mo most decidedl.y Meet him iv he re 1 will, 011 State street, Commercial street, >r in the Exchange, and he always turns his 'arc away. When 1 lend a man money and 10 is owing me, 1 want him to look me full in .lie face, as if nothing had happened; and then I shall be willing to lend liiru again." This is a writable story. Army Worm..Wo regret to-state that this destructive worm has made fta i^p&Aranco on [he farms in the vicinity of ChnmtMon, and has commenced its ravages with right good will. \Vi> s:l\v vr>sli>ril.-i v sumo fibnnfa nf enm frnm the farm of Mr. Felix Meclzo, which had boon completely stripped cf lao blades, and the stalks of which were considerably injured.

SEPARATE STATE SECESSIONPRACTICALLY DISCUSSED IN A
SERIES OF ARTICLES.ublisiiei! Originally in the Edgefield Advertiser,
-c*-
EY RUTLSDGE.
NO* V.Vhc Effects of Sqiarale State Secession on the
Commerce and Prosperity of the State.It is easily to bo seen, wo think, that the
Commerce and prosperity of the Stale will helcreased arnJ not dimnusiica oy separate ocaie
occasion. Charleston has now an exportingrade of 810,000,000, and an importing busiessof only 810,000,000, since she is a mere
lioronghfare for at least onc-linlf the importsiiat enter her harbor.Undor a separate government, while the hnortsupon which she derives Yhercantile proIs,would at once rise from $10,000,000
-) $15,000,000 (the just imports upon thexports proper of the State) the exportsom products of other States would, proably,not be much diminished; for Charles^n,under our exercise of free trade, would furishthe best exporting market for Southern andVestcrn produce; and although the governlentmight impose heavy restrictions upon imortsfrom Carolina into other States, it couldnposc none upon thoexports of other States in>Carolina. Charleston would still bo a finelart for the produce of the neighboring Stales,ud' though prohibited from selling Ilium mcrliandize,she could direct her ships laden withomrnodities derived from this produce, to anyort in the Union, or to any part of the world,ud compete in a fair field with tho Merchantsf other countries.Cut let us estimate tho benefits Charlestonould derive from the natural increase of theapulation and productive industry of the State,'aking the increase of our population, every?cade, to be 20 per cent., in ten years fromlis time, unless from unforeseen causes, thereiil be added to our present numbers about50,000 souls. Now it is a sell-evident proposim,that, in every community, each member isconsumer; and all who do not live by chari-, contribute somehow to production by their '
dustrv, their capital, or their land.* This is <
universally true, that, in Political Economy, »
is become a maxim."every grown person is '
t acciimulate.il capital<The productive industry, then, of our State, i
.".dually increasing every year, would, at the 1d of ten years, yield an annual increase in <
ir exports of more than 83,000,000; for thisuuld be about the productive value of 130,000 Ihabitants after deducting domestic consump- !m. Take, for example, tiic three Districts of s
ibeville, Edgefield and Newberry. In 1840 i
ey iiad an aggregate population of 80,553, jlite and black. Their aggregate production iCotton v as 19,244,714 lhs.f This at 10 t
would make the expoiiing value of each i
habitant 824. Supposing the 130,000 in- tease of our population to have the same pro- t,<live capacity, they would furnish, as already \
tied, annual exports more in value than S3,- t>0,000. 'l'hesc would yield, in a profitable \
reign trade, nearly -$4,000,000 of imports, tunco Charleston, in the next ten years would \
vo, from this source, an increase of her pro- ful mercantile profits mi £3,000,000of exports, a
d nearly £4,000,000 of imports.in ail, £7,- p10,000, This calculation might he extendedrough a succession of decades, showing tiiege increase of our produce and trade, tili, ,
>iii over population and other causes, theeseiit ratio between production and popula- tmi he destroyed. iHut the p.oductive industry of the State x
:>uld he increased in another way. At pres- jt, capital ol something like £5,000,000, ho- ,
g transferred to the North, is annually with- tawn from the productive agency of the State. |,inlrodui ing improved methods in our various 'juiiohcs of industry and in facilitating our in -comiiiunication,this sum might add con- jlerably to tiie exporting capacity oi tne state,i annual saving of $5,000,000 would give, ,
tiio end of 10 years, exclusive of interest, a (ed capital of $50,000,000. Allow $1,000,- {0 of tiiis to he unproductively consumed hy t
1 fcitate Government, there would still re- ti n $ 10,000,000 for productive agency. The v
productive power of this sum, invested ine usual occupations in our .State, would fur- [ih exporting products to tire value of $2,000,- ;10. Thus -hhige/ivld District, which by the ;
cent Census,J has an aggregate wealth of t10,000,000, yields exports in Cotton alqpe to (c value of $800,000. 1In addition to this, there would ho, under a r
parnlt Government, several hundred thousand \liars of coiuutodilies for public consumption, .
hich would go to swell the imports of the |.ate. (
From these data it will be reasonable to es- (
nale the exports proper of South Carolina, a* je end often years, should llio iState be allowIto enjuy the fruits of a peaceful indepen- i
:nco, at about £ 1 S,000,000, and her imports ;
more than 62U,UU0,000. This will add to
e present business of Charleston mercantileoliis on 610,000,001) of imports, which now
erely pass through her streets, adding a mere
illo to the waailh of the city, while her rx'
ir/.v will be equal if not larger than they are
present. And this increase will gradually) on for centuries according to population 'id production. JFrom her facilities, moreover, in combiningill and capital, Charleston would become a '

considerable manufacturing Town, not morelyof Cotton, but of various ;uul useful commodi-ties, especially of impIenWg and machineryfor mechanical, agricultural and manufacturingpurposes. With her genius and capital pro-pcrly directed to this branch of industry, shemight add immensely to her wealth and pros-pcrity. Only a few Towns and Cities, whosenatural advantages fi)r Commerce poiir thewealth of nations'into their harbors, becomevery prosperous and wealthy without i.vmufacLures.Charleston should look to this as a
source of.great prosperity.What now are the prospects of the State at
large ? The increase of its population andproductive industry, the saving of the honestgains of its citizens from the plunderers of theNorth, and the low rates at'which tho commoditiesof other nations would enter our ports,would largely augment the wealth of the i.>fate','and add infinitely to the comforts, improvements,and refinements of civilized life. To thisprogressive advancement, we can see no limitwithin many centuries. Our lands are susceptibleof high cultivation, and our products arcof the most valuahle'character. Our labor, also,whatever the deluded enthusiasts of Europeand the North may interpose, is the cheapestand most productive of any on the globe.In what section of the world, can a peasantrybe found that produce equal to our slaves ? Isit not a Known >ucr, that the wluto agriculturallaborers ot most countries, are usually an indolentrace ? Tlicv labor little more than halftheir time.contenting themselves with moderatemeans of subsistence, and often directingtheir labor without capital or skill. And whatis worthy oi note, while the slave labor of theSouth, under the control of intelligent planters,is more productive, it is, also, highly useful andprofitable, ft i3 directed almost exclusively tothe creation of utility. All our products are
actually necessaries in every quarter of thecivilized globe.not furnishing luxuries for theconsumption of the rich alone, hut comfortsi:id conveniences, likewise, for the middlingind 'poorer classes, among whom the greathulk ofconsumption takes place. Hence, there3 with us little danger of over-production. Wenay reckon upon almost a perpetuity of ourcommerce and trade, while our power of pro-luclion, will l»e limited, centuries to come, only>y the extent of our Territory, after every acre>f land shall have been highly cultivated andmproved. What is to hinder us from rivallinghmglanu in ner prodigious accumulation ul (:apitnl ?While \vc remain in the Union, bearing the (
mrthons which, lor the last twenty-five years, ,
lave been imposod on us, we must content our- jelves with a very moderate advancement in (voailh and prosperity. Charleston will improveslowly; and a heavy draw-back will bo j"fit by the .State on account of the immense |Irakis from her industry, made by the govornnentand the North. No bright visions of fi>- f
tire greatness and magnificence will occur to jhe minds of her citizens; but, in the gloomy tista of the future, they will behold only the ,
oils and dangers lhat beset their career. They'
vill be doomed to wage perpetual warfare with the wild elements of fanaticism and oppression,vhile the fruits of their labor will be seized £rom 1»« fore their eyes by the rude hands of an crJiifp-frv rmwiMimi.nt. to fnr>ii Jind f'lff.Mi flir>

A:; Ei-opusrnxT..Tlio Nashville American c>f the 13tli of July, gives an account of a run- tiwny match in that city. The young lady af- ior descending to the arms of her lover, by inouns of a ro;>o ladder, from her bed room 1vindow, was in the act of starting from the jinternal mansion, when the front door burst \
»pen, and out rushed the father, mother, and 2he balance of the children, with sundry dar- r
ties, masculine and feminine, all en dishabilcc. jI'ho American says: s"The racket was as great as that created by c
Signer logo, of Venitian memory, when he c
trouscd Brnhnntio .after the abduction of the ifcntle Desdcmona. Our readers can imaginehe rage and astonishment of the sire and dam.le demanded the instant surrender of his 1laughter, but the young lovor wounhi t near '
o it, nor the lady. Siic was ;is spunky as ;i
villi cat.the father threatened.the old lady ^tormed :>t:d almost went into hysterics* The *
over cooly drew a pistol from his bosom andinlicated his intention to go ahead at all hnz- jtrds. A critical moment oftentimes decides ihe fate of empires; and just so then.the fa- 1
her wisely concluded that since he could not 1irealc up the match, it was best to let them <
narry at home. Ho hold out his hand to the 1
over and made the proposition, which.was ac- 5
.opted upon condition that the minister shouldie called in to solemnize the nuptials. A rev?reudgentleman was aroused by one of thejompnisy, and 111 a lew minutes the noose was

Singular Count..In the South AmericanRepublic of Chili, we learn from an article inho Christian lleviow, there is a DomesticJoin t."it tribunal that decides in the case ofiiinors complaining of the refusal of parents tolerinit their marriage. Unless the defendant;au show satisfactory cause for the refusal, the (L'ourt immediately decrees the marriage to takeplace." The effect of this arrangement it is.tilted, is to cause runaway matches to be comparativelyscarce in Chili. ,

For the Camden Journal.I think of thee when morning springsFrom sleep, with plumage bathed in dew,
And like a young bird litis Jier wingsOf gladness on the welkin blue.
And when at noon the breath of loveO'er flowers and streams is straying free,
And sent in music from tlic grove,I think of thee.I think of thee.
I think of ihoc when soft and wideThe evening spreads her robes of light,
And like a young and timid brideSits blushing in the arms of night.And when the moon's sweet crescent springs
In light aVr Heaven's deep, wavelesssea;And stars are forth like blessed things,
I think of thee.I think of thee.
I think of thee!.that eye of flame,Those tresses, falling light and free,
Tint brow, where " Beauty wrrte9 her name,"I think of thee.I think of thee.
Camden, August 11, 1851. Aloiirator.
Charity, op. Lovf. of the NpiGHnoR..To love our neighbor is not only to will anddo goo l to a relation, a friend and a good man,but also to a stranger, an enemy, and a badman. Charily however is exercised after differentways towards the former objects and thelatter; towards a relation and friend it is expressedby direct acts of kindness but towardsan enemy and a wicked person, by indirectacts of kindness, as by exhortation, by correction,and by'punishment for their amendment.Thus a judge, who according to law and justicepunishes a criminal, is in the exercise oflove towards bis neighbor, since he thus takesthe most effectual method to reclaim and amendthe criminal, and to provide at the same timefor the good of his fellow-citixens, by securingthem against his future fraud and violence. Itin like manner is plain to every one, that afr.therjxpresses his love towards his children by cor
'Cding them when they do amiss; and on thejther hand, that is he docs not correct themivhen they deserve correction, he then loves;hcir vices, and such love cannot bo callediharity. So again whore a person resists thei.ssaults of an enemy, and either beats him inils own defence, or commits him to prison forlis fututc security, yet still retaining such a disjositionof mind as to be wiling to become.s friend, lie acts from a principle of charity,n like manner wars, whic\\\We for their endhe protection of our country and the church,ire not inconsistent with charity; the end forvhich they are undertaken will shew whetherhey are attended with charity or not.Since then charity, with respect to its origin,
"Mi'-Ief irnA/Lti'il] nrAAil.\V ill lino *fo unei/is11 -;io i tn ^vv/u-»»ui, anu ^v/viu- »' lit uao no I vOI
lence in the internal man, it is plain that wheni man possessed of charity resist an enemy,mnishes the guilty, and chastises the evil, helibels this hy means of the external man, and>f consequence, when lie has effected it, he renrnsinto the charity which is in the internalnan, and then as far as ho is able, or as far as
t is expedient, wishes well to him whom hesns punished or chastised, and from a princi>loof good-will does him good. Charity,vhcre it is genuine, is always attended with«al for what is good, which zeal in the externalman may look liko anger and flaming fire,r'eton the repentance of its adversary, it is intentlyextinguished and appeased: but therase is quite different with thoso who have no
liaritv; their zeal is anger and hatred, for theirntcrnal man is on fire with these evil passions.
