He is one of the most shameless frauds and impositions of this time. In his idleness, his mendacity, and the immeasurable harm he does to the deserving, -dirtying the stream of true benevolence, and muddling the brains of foolish justices, with inability to distinguish between the base coin of distress, and the truecurrency we have always among us, -he is more worthy of Norfolk Island than three-fourths of the worst characters who are sent there.
