Hfl7,t V XHE CHRII^TIiilV TOCABULARir OP BILLmGSGdTE .HBUSE, CONTAINING BOME RARE SPECIMENS OF THE INIMITARLE MEEKNESS ANK GENTLENESS OF WILLIAM JACKSON, EXTRACTED FROM HIS "HYPOCRITE UNMASKED." With " much malice and a little wit" Mr. Jackdon has agaXn made a public exhibition of tboso " bowels of mercies" which form so material a part of his native composition. He has dipped his pen in gall, and out of the abundance of his loving heart, he has uttered some of the sweet- eat and moat amiable sentences, that can be found in any infidel produc- tion of the age. There is no writer, perhaps, with whom he can be so justly compared as the far-famed deist, Thomas Paine, and even his low scurrility is put to the blush by this minister of the gospel — by William Jackson." Many writei'8 have done marvellously but thou excellest them all! A moat furious assault he makes upon his antagonist; and because Mr. T. did not reply with all tbo apathy of a Stoic to the aggravated eharge of infidelity, Mr. Jackson falls upon him thus outrageously, dag- ger out of sheath, without either rhyme or roasor.. His laudable design is to blacken, and hence no filth is too filthy for hia purpose: as a portrait painter it must be c3ufessed that Mr. J. well understands the art of • blackening: no person can doubt this fact, who remembers the host of Preachers he has maliciously defamed in his "Man of Sorrows." But we must hasten from this rabid effusion of Mr. J. to cull a few of jhe most lovely flowers ^hat ever grew in nature's soif. For a com- mencement take the following : " I can look upon you in no other light than that of a Slanderer ' a character of which Hell itself can never boast a fiend ao foul. Had you have entered my dwelling at night, or have met me on the highway, and have stripped mo of all that I posses- sed, you would have acted more like a man than what you have. But no, such petty acta of revenge are far too mean for you." Bravo? bro- ther Jackson, Mr, Taylor is not a Highway Robber, the profession is too mean for him—and you can look upon him in no other light than that of a Slanderer— of course then, all other epithets you give him such aar "Villain" "Hypocrite," "Perjurer." " vile Seducer," &c.&c. aro unworthy of the least credit. Again : " Against a tongue and pen like yours, there is no defence, like poiisoned arrows, they inflict wouiids iocurable! You let fly your en- ■»"* ^77-3 2 ) venonied darts without provocation or warning !" " Vou knew you were writing a falsehood, to the injury of one who never injured you." Softly Mr. J — but certainly il is noinju.y to charge a Minister of the Gospel with "denying the truths of revelation" — no injury to represent him to other;; as a "rogue" a "hypocrite" and an "Infidel puppy." " I am now giving them another portrait of you in the " Man of Sin." But Sir, Mr. T. is " a youth" nay " he is destitute of every principle of manhood," and therefore cannot be the " Man of Sin." " ifou have told malicious lies." "The leading feature of your portrait is that of Lying." " Maddened by revenge and blinded by prejudice, you madly rush on resolving either for death or victory." Amazing ! A Mad and a Blind warrior! " It happened very well they were not asses, for I might have concluded that one of them in his fright had broke loose and run away." Better and better ! The Warrior turned into an Ass. *'What you have here palmed upon the public, for a solemn truth, is an awful falsehood !" " Were you to be ruled by that word, you would speedily " repent and be baptized." Quite apostolic ! " Was such in- BufFerable conduct to be tolerated, the whole world would be brougut in- to confusion, nothing that was written could be depended upon, and no man would be safe in his own dwelling !" Wonderful ! The transpo- sition of a sentence affect the whole earth, and render a man insecure in his private residence ! O British liberty and safety, whither have ye fled ? " You would have acted more the part of a christian in paying me fo*" the books, for which the Church still continues to owe me." A minister is to pay the debts of the Church or lose his character as a Christian. • Again: " Every page in your slanderous production evidences that your design is, with your pestilential breath, to blast my reputation, and at once plunge a dagger in my soul." Every page ! and yet there are many pages in Mr. T.'s work without Ihc least allusion to Mr. J. " You can glory in nothing so much as slander, and stoop to nothing less, than the slaughtering of my character." A Warrior, An Ass, and now a Butcher! What next.' " Till you prove what you here assert, I can look upon you in no other light, than as being one of your "father's children." Now, a child of the Devil! " Your mortal sting is still drawn like that of the deadly adder." "You first spit out your venom at me." Spitting venom ! Which shall we admire most here — the gentleman or the chris- tian.'' " I wish you would sit still, Sir, while I give you another touch." How polite our portrait painter becomes! " In the height of your ma- lice and rage;" " Your thirst for revenge is so great, that nothing less than my total ruin will quench it. And you may depend upon it, that your thirst will never be allayed in my destruction; for God will not leave me in your hand." Poor Mr. Jackson ! so meek, so quiet, so unof- ,,. ,.*' /*• 1 fonding.and yet he has fullen among thieves and '•obters. " Be assumed of it, Sir, there is no hatred existing between us, other than what grcws outof yonrown evil h-,art." Like a full-grown momter (there is me- f-'-l-hor for you !) in iniquity, you next speak evil of me for having done you ofoorf/" No Geometry can measu-re, no Arithmetic culculate, and no RLetoric describe the immense amount. of good. "A man who would thus act, is capable of doing any deed cf darkness." No, he would lot turn highway robber for he is not mean enough for that em- ployment. " Your crime will ever stand foremost on the black cata- logue of miquity." " Will you not hide your malice towards me .-'-Has all shame and fear forsook your treacherous heart.-"' " After having given full vent to your rage, aud vomited out all your poison." Vomi- ting poison ! How exquisitely genieel .'' " You do not kill me, but you bruise and wound me, till you feel assured I cannot live." Mr. T. baa not killed Mr. J — he is not a murderer ! Again : " Sir, your driveling arguments on infant sprinkling are things by far too mean for me to stoop to." Here is refutation for you! ♦' You prove yourself to be capable of committing any ACT OF VIL- LAINY." " I find you guilty of another daring /org-ery .'" *' After having travelled through much falsehood, filth, and mimicry" -'How bwfullyfoul must that fountain be,from when such assertions proceed!-— Every sentence you utter is tinged with the hue of maliciousness." "All your raillery, trash, and school-boy nonsense." " You take a deal of pains to give me tho meaning of the word " villain," but really sir, you might have saved yourself much trouble by pointing to yourself, for then I should have seen one after the life." Mr. Taylor a Villain ! What next.' ,,. Again : " I shall be able to do but little more than point out some of your most glaring and iniquitous acts, and would assure you that though by art and sublety, you may escape THE HANDS OF THE PUBLIC EXECUTIONER, God will bring you into judgment !" Some of Mr. T's glaring and iniquitous acts ! How merciful not to reveal the tvhole! The hands of the public execrdioner ! Is not Mi% J. afraid lest Mr- T. should become a Turk or a Mahometan .' No doubt when on tho gallows Mr. T. will havfj as his ghostly adviser, the mild and sweet tem- pered William Jackson. Again : " If you had the misfortune to fall overboard when crossing the Atlantis, you might have experienced the truth of that line," — A dolphin ducking an ape." " For hypocri j and buffoonery, you surpass all I have ever seen, heard or read of.'^ That \% for hypocrisy Mr. T. inisf »ui'pa33C3 SiniJik M tjus ! For iu'/'jo/icj'i/ lie aurpasaos Joe Miiler ! With regard to tha eixQiuie^ of tko Baptistd, Mr. J. obderved of Mr. T. — '• Your late publication pP'fcifeeM, that the •' bottomlrss pit" could not produce an enbmit moke vix.e." Mr Jackdori seenii to bo well ac- tjuainted with the inhabitants of Tartarus ! " At my character you are now making a deadly thrust." *' Your moudtor iigured mantle." " Your envenomed sword will pierce your o'vu evil heart." " Having already so well acted the part of a i'ekjurer anU vjle seducer." "Yoa are destitute of every principle of manhood." Doea Mr. J. forget that a stripling laid the proud Goliath low i. Again ; " Your inelegance of manner might have led to the conclus- ion, that you were? a stranger to common pol'' lesa, and had been b,<;d ilia forest." The Modern Chesterfield to^ ng politeness !. "You remind me of a notorious fAifi/ telling a man to be honest." "You were publishing to itio world all the falsehood and scurrilities, that HELL and your own depraved heart could invent." " You like wicked Ahab, having got possession of my vineyard, would not be satisfied with- out having ray life also." Why does not Mr. J. swear his life against Mr. T.? Again : " I feel no hejfitancy in pronouncing you to be a First rate Hypocrite." " You have always two faces. You have a grave forehead and a wanton heart." " You have a clean outside and afoul inside. Your mouth contradicts your heart, and your fingers belie your mouth." ^' Yoa preach holiness bat practice iniquHy. Among your neighbours, you are a plague andthehlot of goodness." " Like a rotten-slick in a dark night, none can trust to you •• and unless you repent, you will at , last be found among all other roiten sticks, which will be bound up in bundles and burned." Here is zeal for you, plenty of it ! And now let all the world judge of the spirit which fires the bosom of William Jackson. We do not say, all the religious worlds but all that have the smallest portion of comnua sense and common humanity. What can inspire this conquening hero with such a spirit,and fill his mouth with such language ? Is it any credit to his person or to his cause ? What can men think ofono or the other ? But enough, a day is hastening when " the Lord shall search Jerusalem as with candles." Printed by /. S- CvnnabeU, drfyle iStrset^ %: A^M^^HflW^V^v^ ^ ■ "^^:;
