A Chastellux
for fevers for the sake of displaying the skill of physicians.
In our times equal degrees of virtue are produced by
much slighter occasions, and purchased at much cheaper less
expence. rates.
Meantime it was the conduct of only a part of

gave occasion for displaying it was the tyranny and injustice
of the government which was democratical.
p.17. Social and friendly privileges grated by the
Ephesians and to the Syracusans and Selinuntians for as
an act of gratitude for their assistance. From These together
with another such incident mentioned in the

the Syracusans at this time as being the most amiable

of skilful commanders.

Conon saved) taken by Lysander, owing to the supine negligence
