It is generally confined to such Clergymen as have become chaplains to some Noblemen, or persons of rank and title. No man of respectability in the church assumes this shaped hat, if he has any sense of decorum and good manners. without the official title.\nBut the case is very different with our Dissenting brethren; among them, the increase of these shaped hats, is truly alarming and disgusting. At one period, our ministers, were distinguished and held in contempt for their Puritanism and Methodism; but now they excite risibility, by the use of the \"fire shovel hat\". This is an offence, which must excite painful emotions in the heart of well educated and intelligent Dissenters, to have their respective pastors, aiming, not only at clerical distinction, but imposing upon the public as they walk through the streets, by the assumption of a badge of distinction, which is contrary to decency and good manners.
