" There are fame per forts whose congeniality ofcharader is such, that they need only to fee each other toJom immediately theJlrideJ} intimacy." THOSE circumstances in which men resemble each other are not more numerous or more evident, than those in which they d ifagree. The poinu of refcmblance are fufEcient to designate the human race from any other class of beings, arid to give them a fpecific chara&er. The great outlines of human natiTre are so con stant and uniform, that we can never mistake them, however they may be modified by climate or education. But though we ire in no danger of millaking any part of our Ipecies through a want of obvious similarity; we are (till liable to strong antipathies, from various instances of diftimilarity. Some men appear to be like the reft of their species in very few refpe&s. There is so little con geniality of ch.)rafter between them and other men, that they can never form any intimacy or acquaintance. Thiscircumftatvcefim plydoesnot prove a man to be belter or worse than the general run of mankind : Itonlyfhews that he hat too strong peculiari ties to authorize an high degree of intimacy. Why has one person a great number of intimate aflociates, while another has few or none? This may happen where both sustain a reputation equally fair ; and where both are situated equally fa vorable to cultivate friendlhip. It is becauie one person more than another finds his character congenial to those with whom he may chance to be acquainted. Some men can make an intimate companion of almost any person whom accident may throw in thyr way. We denominate such very familiar men. They have tio peculiarities of difpofitiort to make them critical in the choice of theit aflociates; nor have they anjNfingularities of charackr to make them disgusting to others. Meiri>f such an easy temper and accomraodatiiigmanners pass through the world, without ever be ing ipuch refpeQed, or much hated. But there are persons of a different (lamp who can find none, with whom they can eafilyaf fimilate. They are exactly the reverse of what I have just called familiar men. A refcrved disgust most commonly happens from a want of congeniality of character. If this is a prevailingquality in any individual it is an evidence, not that he is a bad or a good man, bat that the impulses «f his foul do not vibrate m sympathy with those of other people. 471 NOES. laws of the'united states.
