Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rules and Constitutions of the Society of the Sons of St. George, Established at Philadelphia, for the Advice and Assistance of Englishmen in Distress National attachments and prejudices are for the' mofi part idle and unneceffary and when they operate fo far as to make us injure or defpife perfons born in a different country from ourfelves, they are indeed very reprehenfible. But although national difiiné'tion lhould on molt occafions be avoided, yet the neceflity ofform ing the prefent fociety is one proof, that on fome oc cafions it may anfwer the befi purpofes. Numbers of Englifhmen have arrived in this city, and being difap pointed in their expectations, have been reduced to the lowefl ebb of difirefs and not knowing where to apply for relief or advice, have funk into ruin almofi unnoticed, when, perhaps, a little good counfel, ora fmall pecuniary afliflance, would have faved them from defiruétion, and made them ufeful members of fo crety.
