' If your brother should inquire about his old playfellow, pray give my kind respects to him. I shall not cease to pray for your safe and speedy return. Since I wrote the above, Mr. Henry Clifford called and dined with us; and he is at our house now. His principal conversation has been about what he calls the folly of his son ; who, he says, before he went to Ireland, was always either in his closet, or walking alone in the fields. My father said, he believed half the world would go mad. There ...is aaime, added he, for all things. Undoubtedly people ought to be religious ; that is, they ought to go to church,' otice at least, on a Sunday, unless any thing extraordinary prevent. The better sort ought to do so, if it were only ta set an example to the lower class, who might in a great , measure be kept from poaching^ if they could be induced to attend divine service, Mr. Clifford was of opinion, that preaching had never done any good to the morals of mankind, and that the whipping post and the pillory were the hcst instructors.
