The Rbv. Abercrombib's
SERMON.
♦
to the public.
Having been inform d of several gross mif
reprefenutions, which the vindiiliv? malice
of party spirit Ivas circulated refpe&ing the
SERMON which I preached on Sunday li.fl,
in Christ-Church and St. Peter's, I have, by
the advice of ir.any of my friends, transcri
bed thepaffage which has given rife to the
calumnies ; and, in vindication of myfclf,
cheerfully submit it, as a public appeal to
the coMcience and candoj of every honefl
man and sincere christian ; assuring them
that it is now given verbatim as delivered
from the pulpit, and that it contains every
sentiment in the sermon which could poffi-
lily be fuppoled to have any political alhir
ion.
As a member of the community, I have
a right to express my sentiments on fubjefts
of a political niture arid I will express
them. As achriftian mintfter, I not only have
a right, but I conceive it my duty, when the
interests of religion and morality are involved
in the prevailing discussions of civ 1 policy,
publicly and puof »si >nally to declare
my opinions, and 1 will declare them. It
is well known that I highly disapprove of
political difqu'.fitions in the pulpit, except
upon very extiaordinary occalions, and my
conduft in this refpett, ever fitice I have
bt en in orders, has uniformly corresponded
with the opinion. But, there are periods,
p-irticularly under such a government as ours,
where there is no established religion, indeed
in whose conflitution chrilhanity is not re
cognized, when the interference and influence
of the clergy in behalf of that divine system,
is unquestionably proper; nay, in my opin
ion, bt-comes a duty. Such I consider the I
present : and I now earneltly and affettion- '
atety call upon my protefiional brethten of
every denomination, t6 aid me in support of
our great and common cause at this awful
and important moment; for whit a monftcr
of a solecism in religion as well as in polii cs
would it be, for a chrillian community, vo- j
i hintari'.y, to place at their head, as their ru
ler and guide, an acknowledged unbeliever,
and of course an enemy to their faith.
Since the delivery of my firrmon, I have
perused, with great fatisfa<f\ion, a very fenfia
fele, difp'lionate and. catholic " idd.efs to!
the Citizens of the United S»ate»" which I '
recommend to the perusal of every chrillian,
entitled •' Serioui confideratioiu on the
election of a President," said to be written
by a Clergyman of diftini;uifhed, abilities
in the city of New-York. Thr author's,
coincidence ot' fentinient, is highly flattering !
to me, and I adopt the conduli hi ot bis \
address as that r>f my own. " I would feel I
criminal, had [ exprefled myfelf with less
warmth. I rather fear that I have not ri
sen to what the cause demanded. Against
Mr. Jeflferfon, I have no personal ref.nt
ntent. ..He and I can never be competitors
for any pl«ce of honor and emolument.
Separate him from his principles, and I
could write his eulogium."

MEMNQN OR HUMAN WISDOM.
Memnon conctived one day, the chimeric
cal projett of being perfedlly wife. There
are few men, vrho have not sometimes che
rished a similar delusion. Memnon fald za
himfelf, to be truly wife and consequently
perfedlly happy, it isonly necessary to lubdue
the paflions; than which notfiing is moreeafy.
In the firll place, I will never love the lex 5
for at the fijjht of a perfett beauty, I will Cny
to myfelf ; tft'ofe checks, will be one day far
rowed by age ; those beautiful eyei will be
border d with red ; that round and prominent
boforo will become flit and pendant ; that
beautiful head will be (tripped of its g Ideu
t relies. Thus fli.ill I have always prefetit to
my* imagination, that now beautiful form
ravilhed by the ruthless hand of time of all
its graces, and perfections ; and surely I tliall
be then fortified against its t'afunarions.
In the ferbnd place I will be always fuber :
I may be tempted by a sumptuous enter
tainment, by delicioub wines r bv the fedudt
i»n of company : but 1 fhill represent t->
myfelf thr consequences of excels, a bea%y
•head, a stomach surcharged, the loss < f
reason, of health' anl of time, 1 will then
eat only topreferve life ; my health will bt
always equal, my ideas pure and luminous.
All this is lb e»fy, that there is no merit
in its performance.
Aherwards laid Memnon, it is neceffar)
to devote some tttention to my fortune ;
n»y d-fires are moderate ; my property is
securely loilged with the ieceiv»r general
the Finances of Nineveh. I have an ample
fufficiency to live in independence s That
is the grcateft of bleilings. I lhall never
be tubjt ctrd to the cruel neceflity of
my court : I Qiall invy no one, nor will
any envy me. This alf >is perfectly ea('\.
I have fiiends, continued he, I (hall prc
ferve them, because they can have no canfe
of coutention with me. I lhall never be at
variance with them, nor they with nir.
In that there is no difficulty.
Having thus formed his little plan < f
wif lorn in his chamber, Memnon looked
from tbe window : He saw two womei
walking in the (hade of the Palm Trees,
near'bis house. One was ugly and thought
left. The other was young, handsome, and
appealed to be greatly di lire fled. She fished,
the tears flowed down h*r beauteous cheeks,
aiid rendered her more graceful. Our fape
was moved, not by the beauty of the Lady,
(he disdained such weaknels) but by the
nffloftion which Ibe fußcred. He came down, 1
and approached the young Ninevite wich
the intention of consoling her with wisdom.
This beautiful person recounted to him with
the mod pathetick naivete, all the injuries
which (he filtered from a pretended uncle,
the artifices by which he had deprived her of
a fortune which (he had never poflefledand all
tnat (he had to dread froni hi* violence. You
appear to me so excellent a counsellor, said
(lie that would you condescend to come
home with me and examine my affairs. I am
onfident you could extricate me from the
cruel embarrassment in which I am involved.
Memnon hesitated not to follow her, for the
purpi fe of sagely examining her affairs, and
of giving her good advice.
The afflitted lady conduced him into a
perfumed chamber, and placed him near her
on a fopha, on which they fat opposite to
each oth.r with their legs eroded. The li
dy spoke with downcast eyes, from which
fometimej escaped, and which when
unfortunate adv«ntare will engross my
thoughts, I fh >ll not eat, and sickness will
enf»ie ; It is better ta enjoy a frugal repast
with my intimate friends. In the charms
of their society, I It 'll forget the follies of
the morning. He goes to the rendezvous ;
his deje&ion is apparent. His friends force
him to drink to dissipate his melancholy. The
moderate use of wise is a lemedy for the
diftal'es of mind and b^rty—Thus does the
sage Memnof think, »nd he becomes intox
icated. After the repast, play is proposed.
A moderate game with friends is a polite
aimjfenient. He plays ; they win from him
all the rponey in his pu-fe, and four times
as much on his word. \ dispute arises re
lative to the g;".ire ; one of his intimate
friends throws a dice-box at his head, and
deprives him of an eye. The sage Meinnon
is carried home ftate of intoxication,
without money and with but one eye.
He throws himfelf jon his couch ; and as
soon as the fumes of the wine he had im
bibed are diflipat d, he fends his valet to pro
cure Jome money from the Receiver General
of the Finances of Nil eveh, to pay his inti
mate friends : he is inf. rmed that his debtor
had that morning cominitt-d a fraudulent
att of bankruptcy which reduced an hundred
families to beggary. Mamnon transported
with rage, goes to court with a plaifler on
his eye and a petition in his hand, to demand
ot the King, juflice again (I the bankrupt.
In the falloon he meets several ladies, wh«
with an air of ease wore hoops of the cir
cumference of twenty four feet. Pne cf
them, who was (lightly acquainted with him,
1 coking alkmce at him, cried, ah the horrid
creature ! Another more intimately ac
quainted with him,(aid; good evening, Mr.
Memnon ; in truth, Mr. Memnon, I am
extremely happy to fee you ; apropos, Mr.
Memnon* why hiv* yon lull an eye ? And
(he pa (Ted without waiting his aufwcr.
Memnon concealed himfelf in * corner, and
waited for an opportunity of throwing him
felf at the feet <;( the Monarch. That op
portunity presented itfelf. Thrice he killed
the earth, and presented his petition. Hi?
gracious Majesty received him very ftvorar
bly, and gave the petition to one of his Sa
traps that he might c nnmunicate to him its
contents. The satrap draws Memnon aside,
and with an air of haliteor and a smile of
contempt, thus addrefled him : Are you not
1 ridiculous blind man, to appeal to the
King in preference to me ; and still more
ridiculous, to dare to ask justice again!! an
honest bankrupt, whom I honor with my
proteftion, and who is the nephew of one
of my miftreffes's chamber maids ! Abandon
this pursuit, iny good friend, if you have a
*ilh to preserve your remaining age.
Memrien having thus in tie morning re
nounced the sex, intemperance, gaming,
quarrels, and above all the Court, had before
be elofe of the day, been deceived and rob
jed by a beautiful lady, nad been intoxicated,
bad gambled, qunrrell d, lofl an eye, and had
been at court an objeft of contempt and ri
dicule.
Petrified with aftonithmcnt, and opprtffed
with grief, be returns to his manlion. He
vifhes to enter, but he finds thffe bail• if-,
inpl.iyed by his creditors, in the adt ot
plundering his house of its furniture. He
:hrows htmfelf alinoft lifelefjs under a palm
tree ; he then meets the beautiful lady whom
he had fren in the morning, walking with
tier dear uncle ; dilcovering Memnon with
. olaifter on his eye, (he burst into a violeni
fit of laughter. Ni%ht came ; Memnon
reclined on a bed of draw near the walls of
hi* house. He was attacked by a violent
•ever; during its adVmn his exhausted
frame, he slept, and a celestial Ipirit appeared
to him in a dream.
It (hone with lustre. It had fix beautiful
wings, but neither feet, nor head, nor tail,
and Wore not a rrfemblance to any thing.
Who art thou ? cried Memnon. Thy good
Genius, replied the other. Restore me then
my e-e, my health, my fortune, my wifdoro,
laid Memnon. He then recounted the mif
fortunes #hich had in a day deprived him of
all these.
Thffe are adventures, said the spirit, ]
which never happen to us in the world,
which we inhabit ? A"d what world tlo>'
you inhabit ? said the affli&ed man My
country, said the spirit, it five hundred mil
lions of leagues from the Sun in at little Star
near Sirius, which thou feeft from here.—
The delightful country ! said Memnon :
what, you have there no base women who
deceive a poor man, no intimate friend, who
wins hi-; money and put out his eye. no
Bankrupts, no Satraps, who while denying
you justice sneer at you ? No, said the in
habitant of the Star, nothing of that kind.
We are never deceived by women, because
we have none $ we are not intemperate, be
cause we eat not ; we have no bankrupts,
because with us, there is neither gold nor
fiiver ; it is impsfGble to put out our «yes,
because we have not bodies falhioned like
yours ; and Satraps never do us injustice,
because in our little star there is perfect
cquaity.
Memnon thei> said 5 ">y lord without wo
men and without dinner, how do you pass
your time ? In watching, said the genius,
over the other globes, which are confided
to our care ; and I come to console you.
Alas ! said Meainon, why did you not
come last night, t® prevent me from com
mutiig so many folliis ? I was with thy
elJeft brother Hafla«, said the cel«ftial be
ing. He is more to be pitied than thou
His gracious Majesty the king of the Indies,
at whose court he had the honour to be, or
dered both his eyes to be put out for a tri
fling indiferetion, and he is now in a dun
geon loaded hands and feet with chains. It
is worth while, said Memnon to have a gooil
genius in a family ! One brother has loft an
eye, the other is deprived of both, one is on
a bed of draw, the other in prison I Thy
lot, replitd the spirit, will
true that thou ftwlt always be deprived of
on? eye, but with that exception, thou (halt
always be fufficiently ha py, provided thoa
never conceived the filly and vain prqfpedt
of being perfe&ly wife. Perfcd wisdom
is then unattainable ? cried Memnon. As
unattainable, replied the othe% as perfeft
(kill, perfect strength, p rf ft piwer, per
feft h>ppinefs. Even we aie Grangers, to
those perlediions. There is a globe where
all th fe thii gs are found ; but in the hun
dred th ufand millions of worlds which are
scattered through space, there are different
degrees of petft&iou. There is kfs wisdom
and pkafure in the second than in the firft,
less in the third than in thfecond, and so
on to the iaft, where every O' e is complcat
ly mad. I much fear, fid Memnon. that
our little terraqueous globe is pr cilely the
Bedlam of the universe of which you fptak.
Not exa£Uy so, faii the fpiiit ; but almost :
eveiy thing (hould be in its p oper ] lace.
But, said Memnon, ce tain poets, certain
philosophers are wrong iu faying that
u whatever is, is right." Confideritig the
arrangement of the whole universe said the
aetherial Philosopher, tfcpy are perfeftly
right. Ah ! replied p«or Memnon I will
hot believe that until I (hall have recovered
