But, to understand the moral, we 11 uft
firft tell a Ihort story.
Among the numerous progeny of David,
*as the prircefsof l aniar, a very fjir, and,
ts it appears, a very virtuous youny; woman.
Her tlmrwn would naturally attraft admir
ers, and, in tlwt <rdud of lovers, who pre-
Tented therrfetves at the toilet of nigh hirth
and buay, a briber v.as flrancely and ur!»
fortunately the foremof:. Ammcn, the foil
$f Ha vid» was th 6 ciiminal cnamoratrt. In
the strong language of ;he context, he was
so vexed that lie fell sick for his (ifler. It
is melancholy to dwell upon the depravity
of htunan nature ; and none, but demoniac
paintets, delight in ik-tching, what demands
'olouis, entirely black. Tlir disgusting
prog re ft of unratural palficn, it were uimo
ijefiary sn ! injurious to derail. But fosie
ufefol Seilons may be acquired, by attending
to the import of that intf rhigation, copied
in the text, The difrttder of A rmort's
inind was To legible in hi. face, that Jnn.jdab,
his friend, demanded of him, " Why art
the'i, being the king's son, lean from day to
day."
The rtfpor'V ?<?tTnrd a cause, which, it
true, was enough to create inquietude in any
Jsrral! that he was tu love with one ft.f.
bidden him, by natural anddiv : ne l>ws, that
he was prq-ofteronCy i"chanted with the
pcrfon of h s own fiHer.
rettipeftuous passion, hotv lean, how
cir»worn, tj mi ' forlorn are thy fubjecUt
Let fortune's favourite t, let a prince hah
<jnet on tl.e rich cates of a palace) and if
tjiou, tyrarlnick power, in p.), he (hall not
be filled with good things, but lhall go
lean and hungry away.
Why art thou, O Miser, lean amid thy
store ? Thy coffers look full, but thin are
thy fides and cheeks. A common gazer
would suppose thou hadft enough to " buy
food and get thee into flelh." Thou art not
in love with thv filVr. nor with any of the
human mce, thou art net worn with anxie
ty for the ch'lci of misfortune, nor care'nl
with niuch care of the ftrsnj.er that is with
iti thy gates. They are mver opened, but
to fcim, who war.ttth to borrow on ufiov.
But why ask . f thee, lullfn mortal, tlx-te
<Jiieflions ? When thou locked up thy g .1.1
from the claims of others, from thq cl.i.tis of
thyfl If, 'tis Avarice that bids thee p.w
]ean, and commands, like ruth let's Shyleek,
a pound of flelh from the heart.
No extern,.] circuit.flnnres, iiowever fiil

fijeues 0} pining, generated by vile pa fii 04 .
Men may ln-eonv rontiwrtive from in ill
habit of the body; but th re is .1 w.iflinj of

Mr. Haipur iiioy;d to amend the bill by
inlertin;; atter the words " for the accommo
dation oi the Prelidant of the United States,"
the following- werds—" who shall le elected
for tke term commencing on the 4fii Msxcb
1801." M r . H. made this motiou, in or
der to avoid all appieli.-afion that the ap
propriation was unccHiltitutionaf—tlie.con

tion of the Prdidelit ftjall neither be in«reaf

Mr. Thatcher fnpi,i;iv'ji the intention of
the bill w,if to aceonim.juate the President
on his removal to the city of WalhiiiJEoii,
as the rartiit'ure would then.be warned, and
Mr. Gordon 'liou.rht if the amendment <•!>-
tained, the hulinefs It id better be d. tcired
till the next f.-lfion.
Mr. Harper replied, that as the President
row in c-ffire would not be .compelled to re
side 11,cr ■ more than three months, the fur
niture now in use would answer a tempora
ry purple. It was a desirable object to
make tins appropriation without view to
any particular person.
'1 he amendment was agreed to.
Mr. HarpeT then moved to fill tlr- Uank
in Mie firfl feftion, with 20,c00 dollar
Mr. H. fa>d, it the w hole of the bouse were
fi'«ilied and occupied, three times that sum
would not be fufficimt.
Mr. J. Brown thought, that an appropri
ation ol 10, coo dolh rs at present w ;u!d be
I'ufiscient ; and moved to f.il the blank with
that sum.
Mr. Nicfcolajfupported tins'motion—He
had no idea it w;>« neri flary to p;o into a
p-rfedly new eftabfifhinent or of flile in the
manner of living, and Imped they rtioald
not, bfcauf; a large He. life had !>ee;i put

neceftary to furnifh it.
Mr. Randolph H id, it-had been h'n intrn
tion to move to llrike out this feCli-n, but
it having been amended, and therefore not
now in order, he would endeavor to defeat
it ; with this view, he would move to fill
the bUnk with 500 dollar*, and proceeded
to give his reasons for making the motion.
Alter some observations from Mr. Har
per and Mr. Thatcher in reply, the former
withdrew his motion for fillin?. the blank
with 20,000, and seconded the motion for

Mr. Gallatin rbjtffed to thu sum; he

After some observations from MelTrs.
Nicholas and H.Lee, the Jatter renewed the
•notion to fill the blank with io,oso dollars,
Mr, Livingflon wished to have

that the fiib-committee ftiould be' inftruttcd
to procure theT—with this view, he moved
