MEMOIRS OF EMINENT PERSONS.

*' Ilium non populi fafces non purpura regum 

 Flexit. " 



OIlDINAllY biin-is are produced in 

 abundance, w liile gcninfcs, on the 

 Otlicr liand, appear but i'eldoni : nat(ue, 

 liberal, but not piofule of her t:ivour.s, 

 regulates her conduct by general laws^, 

 and is never prodigal of lier prodii^ic-^. 

 As it is a happy union of extraordinary 

 qualifications that creates eminence, irrcat 

 men arc confequcntly ran;, and, like co- 

 mets, appear hut once in a century. 

 ■ On thofe occafions tlicy, of courfe, e\- 

 'cite the wonder and admiration of their 

 , contemporaries ; but while they merely 

 da/zle vulgar minds by thtir ipkudt>r, 



thofe of a fupcriorcal} view them with a 

 )jhilol(>])liical eye, and are nwarc that in 

 the political as in the phyfical world, hi- 

 niinous bodies, h(n\ever ref|)len(!ent tjiey 

 may feem, arc to be valmd according t;> 

 tile mcafnre of their ulilili/ alone. 



In refpect to the fpecilie merits of a. 

 ftatefman, polierity, perhaps, can only 

 decide with due impartiality. In a free 

 country like our own, the opinions of a 

 lari^e portion of the community are liable 

 to be warped by party zeal, and the me- 

 ritH, as well as demerits of the various 

 candidates for ])ublic favour are not al« a vs 

 cltiinated by a correct ftandard. Yet 

 when death clofes the awful fcene, envy 

 is difamied of half her malignity, and 

 " the cold dull voice" of piaifc is tlK^n
