JUNE 28. As want of room compelled us to close our extracts from the Rev. Mr. Mout')Ewe's Sermon abruptly in our last, we think our Readers will be highly gratified by the perusal of the concluding !part of Mr. PERCEVA l's character In it tl►ey will tind a summary of human virtues, which are depicted with no less f:eling than truth. These, it will be granted, constitute a rare assemblage of Christi in Virtues ; and if to these we add Isis transacting multifarious concm u witit ease, regularity and dispatch, and that though so fully occupied with public case., he bestowed attention on every necesssiry duty in other departments in social life, we shdll have traced a conibitattun quilities char ieterizing the States►nan, the Patriot, the Scholar, the IHu►sband, the Father, the Friend, and the Christian, well worthy being held up to his contemporaries as a bright example. And now, if it he asked, what predominant 41'r:ility gave its preu• bar alai appropri rte cast to the whole character, and by which all the subordinate qm;lities were bronglit to act in harmony with each other, so as to produce their full effect, without any apparently extraordi• nary eff at on the part of their possessor ; the answer is, that ail this proccedino front one plain and simple principle, a never failing sense of duty.
