DRESS. Whence this forgctfulncss of dress ! Pray madam are you married ? Yes. Was it dress That gave your beauty power to bless ? Pursue it still ; be neater seen ; Tis always frugal to be clean ; So shall you keep alive desire, .And time's swift wing shall fan the fire. Unthinking fools alone despise The arts that taught them first to risd. WOMAN. Woman, dear Woman, in whose name Wife, sister, mother, meet ; Thine is the heart, by earliest claim, And thine its latest beat. In thee the angel virtue shine, An angel form to thee h given ; Then be an angel's office thine, And lead the soul to Heaven. From thee we draw our infant strength, Thou arc our childhood's friend, And vhen the man unfolds at length, On thee his hopes depend. rcr round the heart thy power has spun, A thousand dear mysteriou3 ties, Then take the heart thy charms have wen, And nurse it for the skies.

Her breast sustaiiTnd nourishes us ; her hands direct our earliest steps ; her ,;en tl voice teaches us to lisp our mst expressions ; she wipes aJtay-the first tears we shed s'nd to her we are indebted ffor our chief pleasures. In f;i, nature seems to have confided man to her continual care; fne cradle of infancy is tier peculiar cnarge, ami nci kind compassion smooths the bed of death."

The clerk asked for his address: "Och!" says he, " sure you will find it cn the back cf the letter Some time before the breaking up of the British headquarters at Cambray, an Irish soldier, a private in the 23d regiment of foot, was convictecf of shooting at and robbing a French peasant, and was in consequence sentenced to be liangcd.
