Breeding up of expos'd Infants as is practis'd in Rome and elsewhere there to be train'd up to Labour and to Vertue it would prevent many a Murder of such shiftless Innocents nor should we see such a Number of little Brats carried at the Backs of Beggar-Women from Door to Door which when a little grown up run begging about the World till coming to Years of Ripeness or rather of Rottenness they ingender the like beggarly Spawn or Fry and so on to the end of the World Such a Provision for Bastards as I am now speaking of would not be an Encouragement for People to encrease their Number since their Parents should be oblig'd to labour in such Publick Houses till the Children were able to get their own Livings This would be a greater Punishment than that of binding one Parent only in a Pecuniary Caution to Indemnifie the Parish which thing as yet is rarely executed whereas Four or Five Years Labour in Publick Houses would be a great Ease and Security to the Parish and the Disgrace and Laborious Imployments of such Places would deter Men and Women more from their wicked Courses than any Amercement whatsoever And as for our Parish-Children as we call them such as Orphans Bastards and the like they are commonly entrusted by the Overseers of the Poor to some idle Housewife who does just keep them alive and teach them perhaps a little to read and to run a leasing and loitering in the Streets and there learn Roguery till the Eigth or Ninth Year of their Age whereas were they committed to such Publick Colleges or Houses before spoken of and being under the Care of honest experienc'd and industrious Overseers they would soon be taught to earn their Bread and be out of all Danger of being corrupted by Idleness and Ill Example I know a Gentleman who once design'd to bequeath his Estate to a Corporation in trust and to be employ'd for the Erection of a Publick Work-house and afterwards for laying in a Fund or Stock for employing Whores and Rogues the Profits whereof some Consideration being had to the Governours and Overseers of such a Work to be employ'd for the Uses above-mentioned the Scheme whereof I shall not trouble my Reader But so it was that he was soon after inclin'd to revoke his Charitable Design when he consider'd the Business or rather the sacrilegious Disposition of some Bodies or Societies There being too many deplorable Examples before our Eyes of those who within their own Doors are most sordid and Niggard-like but do not scruple to spend such Charitable Stocks or the Bread of poor Orphans I may say truly the Blood of Jesus Christ in making riotous Feasts and Entertainments and in impertinent and scandalous drinking of Healths or perhaps in private Purloinings And that this is not a passionate Invective but a serious tho' deplolorable Truth would be but too legible were there an impartial Inspection made into some Chamber-Accounts For the Redress whereof we do not find any due Care taken Charities therefore of this kind ought upon mature Consideration to be entrusted with such for tho' there be some honest Men to Day who rule the Roast to Morrow there may be those of another Kidney So that upon all Publick Occasions and Expence Charitable Uses generally must bear the Burthen The Mounts or Banks of Piety such as they have in Rome and elsewhere are excellent Provisions For out of these and such-like Funds young expos'd Children are bred up and provided for Fortunes are given to dispose of them in the World Moneys lent without Interest and many other Publick Works carried on But as I said before a competent Number of Bridewells or Working-houses would be of as great or greater Use which yet they want They send them indeed to the Galleys but that is not a Method so advantageous And as for our selves here in England the best Trustees for such Publick and Charitable Designs would be the Justices of Peace in a County provided there were Choice of such as are of Integrity and of a Publick Spirit For these generally being Gentlemen of some Fortune would not so easily be tempted by sordid Ends nor could they conveniently do it were they so dispos'd their Concerns being independent on one another and all things being expos'd to the View of the World in an Open Court Were they therefore enabled by Act of Parliament to purchase Ground and build Work-houses in Corporations and Market-Towns a Reservation being made in City-Charters for such a Liberty and if there were Visitors or Judges appointed by the Government every Three Years to inspect the Miscarriages of such Justices and to strengthen such Pious Designs with all due Provisions as from time to time should become expedient I doubt not but it would be the best Work that ever was undertaken whether we consider the Glory of God the Good and Wealth of the Nation in general the Prevention of infinite Disorders and the Relief of Thousands who otherwise would perish Soul and Body And that upon a due Execution of such wholsome Provisions 't is no way to be doubted but such vast Numbers of well-inclin'd Persons would daily be invited to bestow bountifully in their Life-time and at their Deaths bequeath ample Legacies to promote Works of so great Benefit and Piety But before I shall proceed farther in this Argument I shall with my Reader 's Leave make some Remarks which I have ever look'd upon to have a considerable Influence in Increasing the Number of our Poor which if not prudently remedied will make way for farther Distempers and the Danger still is greater forasmuch as the Things I am now to speak of are not really Vices in themselves but on the contrary are esteem'd generally as very considerable and such by which Men seem to purchase a kind of Esteem and Honour amongst the Generality of Men Of which The First is our Extravagance and Luxury in Apparel All Ages and Nations of the World have ever had Regard to this Particular esteeming a fantastick and variable Dress to be the greatest Index of Levity in the Mind and a very superfluous Expence The Jews of old constantly kept to one kind of Habit as did also the Greeks and Romans The like also we may observe at this Day and from Time Immemorial amongst all the vast Empires of the East the Turkish Dominions as also throughout all Africa and the greatest Kingdoms of the North in all which Places every Nation has kept constantly to its own Habit being such as was most convenient for their Bodies and most suitable to the Air and Climate in which they lived And even in Europe besides the Polanders and Muscovites who stick fast to their Ancient Fashions the Spaniards who are a very great People are very regular in this Particular so that their Sobriety herein must be look'd upon as a great Help to keep up the Gravity and Grandeur of a Nation which otherwise would fall into a
Consequently no Service where he is oblig'd only to the Merits of his Cause or perhaps standing near upon the same height of Ground with his Worship he cares not much to Creep and sneake at his Elbow T is not rare to observe likewise how the tender-hearted Female the good Gentlewoman of the House has a mighty Influence upon these Matters inclining such a Judge of differences to Compassionate the distressed For what tender Bowels wil not yearn with pity at the lamentable Cries of a whole Pannel of Innocent and Complaining Children especially when their Testimony shall be strengthen'd and supported with the weighty Evidence of a very Creditable Upright and Uncorrupted Sugar-Loaf Another Qualification requisite in a Magistrate is Courage and this first in respect of the Persons he is to judge betwixt For as he ought not to favour a Poor Man in his Suit in like manner ought he not to be afraid to Censure the Rich where there is just Cause of Complaint brought against him so that whilst Justice is blind as to the Quality of the Person it ought to be Eagle-ey'd as to the Nature of the Cause In the next place Every good Magistrate ought to shew his Courage in Relation to the Times he lives in that is not to be meal-mouth'd in doing what is Just and Honest for fear of being evil look'd upon by the higher Powers But they certainly are most inexcusable who out of a timorous Nature or out of a sordid and sneaking Compliance rather with the Fortunes of the Times in Hopes meerly to preserve themselves in their little Station shall refuse to Redress the Injuries of One whom malicious Neighbours and a Rabble of ●●oting Ruffians out of Hopes of Plunder shall think fit to dub a Disaffected Person Should a Man I say come before such a one with a Complaint against a licentious Pack of Rogues Mr. Justice would presently shrug up his Shoulders cock his Eye-brows and with a reserv'd solemn and forlorn Countenance becoming the Gravity of a Funeral desire the Complainant to forbear importuning him till the Times were a little settled and quiet telling him that then he could be his Humble Servant most effectually but that in the mean time he must have Patience This is all one as if I were overtaken on the Road with violent tempestuous Weather and coming to my Friend's House to be shelter'd from the Storm he should shut his Door upon me saying Sir I am very sorry to see you in this Condition but you must pardon me for should I open the Door the foul Weather would beat into my House and I might take wet and be ill by such means but if it please you to have a little Patience till the Storm is over I will answer your Request and you shall come into my House and welcome And still would not the Case be worse were it a Publick Inn I should fly unto for Relief that is to say a Place set apart and appointed by the Government for the Succour of the wayfaring and distressed Traveller Indeed Officers of Justice are appointed and set apart for the Relief of such as are distressed and what they do by way of Relief is not Charity but Duty and Justice and failing hereof they ought to be suppress'd as well as those barbarous Inn-keepers who shall refuse to accommodate an honest Traveller because he is wounded rifled and perhaps tumbled in the dirt by Rogues and Robbers upon Pretence forsooth lest his own House should be incommoded and receive Damage by the like Insults from a Crew of desperate Villains The Truth of it is the way to make the Times peaceable and quiet is to punish Tumultuous and Riotous Disorders and not to suffer them to run on without Controul till the Authors of them shall of themselves think good to be civil But what says my Trimmer Why this All things are brought about by the Will and Providence of God and therefore ought we to comply with such Dispensations Besides there were very great Mismanagements under former Governments We ought not therefore to strive and tire our selves against the Tyde lest we be choak'd or carried Head and Heels under Water but let us do like our Neighbours swim with the Current and open our Arms wide upon the Waters and the Flood will never hurt us but carry us safe and smoothly to our Journey 's end The Case is clear Let us e'en turn Tenants then to our new Landlord Thus he cants in Publick whilst he mumbles at another rate within himself after this manner I value neither this nor that Form of Goverment farther than it suits with my Private Interest I will stick fast to this Maxim To be True and Faithful to the present Government so that upon another Revolution whatsover and whensoever it be when that 's trump'd up it becomes the present Government and I will comply with it and cry it up I will not be overscrupulous to be honest when it may endanger my Opinion with the People by making me suspected to disaffected I will say as they say and look cold upon my former Friends and Acquaintance who are out of doors or ill thought of whether deservedly or undeservedly matters not much since 't is Popular Opinion which is the Measure of all things This is the Test I will ever adhere to and come on 't what can come there will be a Gracious Act of Pardon and as soon as Success shall Canonize the Cause I will Preachit up for a wonderful Turn of Providence and run in with the First and cry God save the King God save the Cummonwealth God save what 's Vppermost and God save me to We read 2 Sam. 16. of Shimei a Benjamite or one of the same Tribe and Family with outcast and accursed Saul that when good King David withdrew himself from the Plots and Sword of his Treacherous Son this wretched Miscreant ran along by his side cursing this unfortunate Prince palting him likewise with Stones and casting Dust or Dirt at him the usual Artillery of the Mob withal insulting over his distressed and forlorn Sovereign with some strains of Divinity crying as he ran along that it was the Lord's doing to retaliate the evil which he did to the House of Saul and that he himself had drawn Vengeance upon his own Head by his own Mis-management and Tyranny All which he yet farther Proclaim'd or Preach'd up before all the People saying That the Lord hath delivered the Kingdom into the hand of Absalon thy Son But when it seem'd good to the Justice of Almighty God to baffle the Prophaners or Buffooners of his Providence by the Restauration of the Good King behold Shimei throngs in with the first to congratulate his Happy Return nor doth he appear like a Mean Rascal but was attended with a brave Retinue of his own Tribe having no less than a Thousand Benjamites with him cap. 19. crowding in the Head of the King's Friends even the Men
good Magistrate To find a Man in whom all these meet in full Perfection is a thing rare if not impossible however in some inferiour degree they are indispensably requisite and for want of these 't is I say that the Nation falls into so many Disorders whereas were Magistrates severe and conscientious in the execution of their Charge and Exemplary in themselves Sobriety would be in Credit disorderly Rogues would be reduc'd Frugality and Industry would lift Men above the Necessities of Life into a Region of Plenty Parishes would have their Publick Charges lessened the Poor would be employ'd and by consequence Husbandry would be improv'd Trade advanc'd and the Commonwealth grow great and flourishing all which are such Temporal Blessings as cannot but make a Nation happy under the Blessing of Almighty God which we cannot reasonably hope for till Drunkenness and Profaneness be severely punish'd and his Worship duly celebrated and honoured for when Men cease in the Performance of Religious Duties they will soon degenerate from being Men. Thus it was of old during the Sta●e and Oeconomy of the Jews and thus it was likewise through all the Circles of the Christian Church in all its Periods and Revolutions as was most deplorably and eminently conspicuous in the Eastern Churches upon the Inundation of the Goths and Vandals and afterwards of the Saracens and lastly of the Turks who finally subverted that Empire all which was usher'd in by the corrupt Lives of the Christians as appears by the History of those Times The like Calamities happen'd likewise in the West so that rarely any Kingdom has been subverted and ruin'd which had not first deserted God's Worship and poysoned themselves by Debauchery for they go together it being utterly impossible for a Man to be truly Religious and yet debauch'd in his Morals as it is almost impossible for a Man to be truly Moral and Vertuous and yet to be Irreligious There is no Man so fit for great Undertakings as he that is a good Christian The Fears of Death cannot disorder him so much as others upon the Hopes and Prospect he has of Future Rewards Difficulties cannot dismay him who is above the Temptations of Ease and Pleasure His Reputation and Honour being unspotted he is receiv'd in all Places with respect and whereever he goes he carries along with him his Bills of Credit which must needs facilitate his Enterprizes and refresh his Spirits His Dealings are without Fraud and unsuspected and therefore he is in a fair Post to advance his Fortunes He has a vital Heat within himself which gives Nature a quick and easie Circulation and arms him with Man-like Resolutions in all Cases of Hazard and Distress filling him with far more noble Spirits than what flow from a Bottle of Wine or Ale which end commonly in a total Consumption of Health Reputation Fortune and of all Intellectual Guests whatsoever Nor are the Philters of good Company with which Men are so willingly intoxicated of any greater Vertue For there can be no solid Friendship in a Debauch It does not so properly cement as bedawb mens Inclinations to one another by a kind of Ordure or slimy Matter which cracks or drops off upon the least shog and puff of Wind or upon any Change of Weather tho it may possibly keep them sticking together for a little time and when this dirty Copulative is disbanded some Relicks of it will still remain by which they may be known to one another as well as to all the World besides What is here written may be distastful possibly to some but that 's a Scandal taken not given A Horse may winch and kick a little whilst the Hand gently rubs his gall'd Back but still the fault is not in the Hand which designs a Cure but in the corruption of the Beast however it be as some dissike others may approve of the Method And the good word of one vertuous person is of more weight and value than that of a whole Jury of par-boil'd rattle-headed Clod-pates tho upon their Oaths or of any spurious and degenerate Mercenary whatsoever And God be thank'd notwithstanding the corruptions of the Age there are many men in Office of publick generous and untainted Principles and of laudable Lives and Customs But whilst some are defective their ill Conduct proves fatal to others For Men who are naturally inclin'd to Vice will easily copy after such Examples as suit with their own Dispositions whilst the good out of an innate Modesty or out of fear belike of offending their equals or for being censur'd possibly for morose formal and puritanically affected suffer the bad to run on in their full Career without confronting them or shewing any visible dislike of their loose behaviour Let a Salad be compounded of never so many wholesome Herbs one poisonous Weed as Hemlock and the like tho it be hardly discernable by the Eye from what is good and healthful shall embitter the whole Dish and make it baneful In the mean time 't is the duty of every Man to erect a Cou●t within his own Breast and there examine his Life and Actions before his own Conscience which Almighty God has put in Commission of the Peace over him to direct in his Actions and to curb his Passions and extravagant desires The Conclusion NOW to make a Summary of this Argument I shall humbly offer two Considerations to which if due Regard be had they will very much contribute to the True Interest and Advancement of our Country-Affairs and to the Peace and Felicity of this Kingdom The First relates to that great Community or Body-Representative in the Lower House of Parliament the Members of which Senate are as I may say our Deputies as being elected out of the Number of Commoners Freeholders and Citizens tho' we find them many times to be dignified with Titles and Offices and to be Considerable by their Estates The long Continuance of the same Parliament has been by Experience found to be of ill Consequence to the Country for such Parliaments ripen or rather are corrupted into Parties and lasting Factions and the Popular and Leading Men of them being won over by Pensions and Offices to slacken their Adherence to the Country's Interest look upon themselves as petty Lords or Princes in the respective Places for which they pretend to serve Another Corruption altogether as mischievous is the Expensive and Scandalous Procuring of Voices by Drinking-Entertainments and other Illegal Methods Of both these I had made Enlargements when this Subject first enter'd into my Thoughts But since it hath pleased the House of Commons to make some Steps towards their own Reformation I shall not farther touch upon it hoping that they will make themselves truly Honourable and Revereable by making a further Progress in the Reformation of some other Matters which in the Opinions of honest and impartial Lovers of their Country seem very much to obstruct its true Interest and Tranquility Prerogative and Privilege are
greatest Maturity and Duration are longest in their Concession But suppose we after all that it should be found by Experience that Sea-Coal in the present Case should be more Advantageous than Wood-Fuel and that Wood-Fuel thereupon should be rejected the Gentlemen notwithstanding who had undertaken to plant the Wast-Grounds and Heaths in the Neighbourhood of London would still be great Gainers their Ground being rendred of Thrice or Four times more Value than it was at before which would be a good Return for their Money Likewise the Kingdom in General would have the Advantage in having such Nurseries for Timber and so commodious for use So that no Damage could accrue by the Attempt but there would be great Certainty of Advantage in many respects tho' it should fail in the Main Design which in all Projects whatsoever is a very rational and sufficient Ground for Trial.
