What serpents kiss, wLat monsters rear. '7is cot cc the untrodden isles . Of vait Superior's stormy Jake, Where social comfort never 6rnile. Nor un- beams pierce the tangled trsLe: iior is it in the deepest shaua Of India's tiger-haunted von't ifcr western iortst unsurveyed, Whtfe crouching panthers lurk forUcca1: It is the dark ivicvhdred Soul By Education unrefined, Where hissing malice vices fcul. And all the hateful pa;o3 pvowl The frightful wildekn-ess cf m:xs. . f An Extract. SEDUCTION. The seducer practises the aacie stratagem to draw a woman's person into his power that a swindler doe3 to gat poasession of your goods or money. Seduction is seldGin accomplished without fraud. This injury is threefold to the woman, to her family and to the public. The injuries to th woman, are the pains she suffers fro si shame, loss of reputation, prospects cf marriage, and sle privation of her moral principle.Tho injury to the family may be understood by applying that infallible rule of "doing to others what we would that othero should do unto us." -Lot a Father or a Brother say fcr what they would suffer this injury in a daughter or a sister, &nd whether any or even a total loss of fortune would create equal afSietiou and distress; & teheD reflecting upon this, let them distinguish, if they can, between a robbery committed tip an their property, by fraud or perjury, and the ruin of their happiness by the treachery of n, seducer; and ought not the seducer to be answerable fcr the multiplied evils to which Lis crimes give birth. Not one half of the crimes for which raen suffer death, by the laws of England, are so injurious in their consequences as seduction.
