New-Kent, continued from Number 199.

established religion in south-Britain, but of the
denomination equally established by law in North-Britain; .
. . [2/3 column] For while those useless cyphers, and
dangling butterflies, fiddlers and dancing masters acquire
genteel fortunes, we frequently see the truly useful and
respectable, but often unrespected and despised pedagogue,
by all his industry and abilities natural and acquired,
reaping no more than a bare subsistence. . .
