GRACE WE\TVvOUT il.
Mrs. Wentworth was blessed with tin ab’Jii
tTcinri- of this world's goods, la the bloom of
voath and beauty s!i»; commanded her respect,
■ • a m i
mid the daily beauty ot whose hie ensured her
Jove, while his Jortuue and standing in society '
gratified her highest ambition. She might by !
those who looked only on the surface of tilings,
have been pronounced happy. Happy ! How
much is comprised in that one little word, and
how superficially must they have examined the j
springs of human feeling, v. ho trace happiness •
to any other source than the heart. Mrs. Went
worth had not a grateful one ; and while all
good and pleasant things were profusely scat- |
tered in her path, she passed them unheeded, or j
received them as her due ; never has gift from
the bounteous father ed’ all good, to he meted j
out to others.
in the arrangemor/c of her domestic estab
lishment, at a period wiietl females were cele
brated for their knowledge of household goods,
Mrs. Wentworth was unrivalled. The quick
glancing eye of a .Mis# fruit, would never have
“ seen a broom, where a broom should not be,”
nor detected a mote in her elaborately neat a
hodo. Then iter dinners, —they, like the chmf
d’ceuvre of the Grecian artist, comprised the
pride of every cook, and the perfection of eve
ry. receipt-book. .So extremely exact was she,
in all the observances of etiquette, that, by the
good people of Boston, she was pronounced the
very minor of decorum —and, like the mirror,
her heart received fat abiding impression,
Mr. Wentworth’s character, was most rich
in Christian graces. \\ itli him the sovereign
good was to communicate happiness; for he
deemed it the first principle ©Paction, with the
Author of till existence. Happily for him,
their daughter Grace possessed none of her
mother’s traits of character, and it was delight
ful to her father, to watch the gradual develop© -
ment of a disposition, so free from all that was
cold, calculating, or selfish. So fearful was lie
of making her an artificial character, tiiat ho|j
suffered her to remain, much as nature formed j
her, —with the faults of an open and confiding
temper, and must ift danger of erring from ;
“ excess of feelings edged too keenly.”
Grace Wentworth had a highly cultivated
mind, though not what is termed a masculine
one. She had judgment, and discrimination,
and taste, and a rich beautiful imagination,
which cast its roseate hues over all, and, thro’
which she delighted to view the world, and its
living men and women, spiritualized and beauti
fied. 1 ler countenance expressed every motion
of her soul, and, its anima eel, varying expres
sion, rendered it beautiful—most beautiful to
those who know her, aud Saw how much the!
joyous and benignant emotions prevailed over
the gloomy and discontented. -Mr. Wentworth
loved his daughter with fond, engrossing affec
lion j and Grace* repaid his love with attach
ment the most devoted. When his spirits were
depressed, she would amuse him ; when sick,
she would sooth him ; and would laugh with so
much good nature, at Some fancied disease, that
the saddest hypocondriac would have found her
merriment infectious. But one slight glance of
disapproval would instantly change the merry
brow arch smile, to seriousness and thought,
and convert the laugfling girl, to the grave, in
telligent companion.
Grace was admired, and it has been said, that
no female can have many admirers, without at
tracting them by coquetry. The truth of this
I doubt. “ Who can view the ripened rose,
nor seek to wear it ?” Who can behold beauty,
sweetness and intelligence, without feeling, and
ottering admiration ? Though Grace was not
insensible to the praises of her loveliness, she .
never sought nor courted admiration, and no de- ;
iicato and pure minded female ever can.
She was accustomed in her youth to seeing, |
■collected around her father's board, the most dis- j
tinguished worthies of the day, and they were .
not a few. There she listened to that stern, fear- 1
loss, but able republican ; he, who amidst a host ;
of patriotic spirits, was called the patriot—Sam
uel Adams. There, too, she saw the idol of the
people, the generous, affable and hospitable Han
cock ; and the wit, sarcasm, and eloquence of
Otis, with the cultivated taste ot the excellent
and benevolent Bowdoiu, enlivened their social
circle. One of the most celebrated divines and
politicians of New-Englaad, was also a frequent
and welcome guest. In him those characters
were admirably united. “ Hr. Cooper,’ ob
serves his eulogist, “ well knew that tyranny
opposes itself to religious as well as civil liberty;
and being among the first to perceive the injus
tice of the British Court, this reverend patriot
was among the first who took an early and de
cided part in the politics of his country.” Hiri
uncommon colloquial talents, his extensive learn-'
mg, brilliant imagination and retentive memory |
would have made any subject interesting. W hat|
wonder, then, that when the spirit-stirring events
of the revolution were discussed, they should
have aw’akoned Grace's warmest enthusiasm ?
But this was not all ; her gratitude and affection
were excited by the kind attention with which
he answered her enquiries, and endeavored to a
waken her susceptible mind to -he percepiioi
of the deep beauties of the sacred volume. Tin
. mantle ot ins father had fallen upon him, and h<
' possessed the rare talent of making religion:
truths deeply interesting, and of enforcing then
by appropriate scriptural allusions—admirable
1 but, at the same time, familiar to the meanesi
- capacity.
BosViu has been called the “ paradise of min
j isters,” at all timess, its citizens have evinced
j their descent from the puritans, by their res.
■ i pect for their pastors. Grace inherited this true
; New-England feeling—veneration for hers.
1 Thus matured amid the master spirits of the
(age, it cannot be supposed that her young affec
| tions were to be won by any ordinary character,
and it was no common spirit that at last ob
tained an interest in her unpractised heart.
Among the greatest delights that Mr. Went
worth enjoyed, during his residence at a fo
(reign court, was the friendship of.M. de Val
! licre, and he was the only person whom Grace
■ had ever heard her mother warmly praise.
I Favors so peculiarly rendered, that no unplea,
sant sense of obligation was felt, and even the
i selfish heart of Mr. Wentworth was made sen
i si Me to the emotion of gratitude.
i M. de \ allicrc was a French West Indian
i Planter, and lor ycfirs, had been a correspond
ent of Mr. Wentworth’s. Grace had been de
light* (1 with the good sense and eloquence of his
letters, with the glowing and animated descrip,
tions of the scenes he had witnessed in his for
, eign travels. She had also felt deeply interest
led in the benevolent plans, and noble and phi
: Janthrophie sentiments expressed towards the
degraded Africans- Her imagination had pie
,U:r'’d him a venerable old man, yet wearing a
| smile as bland and courteous as her pastor’s
with the same clear eye, bearing the evidence
of temperate youth.
Returning one morning from her usual walk,
j she observed a foreign travelling apparatus in
'the hall. “ Phillis,” said she to an old favorite
domestic, whoso face appeared more than usual
ly joyous, “ what strangers have we hero ?”
i “ Mister \ alcr come, Miss Grace and make
(us- all glad.”
j “ Hear father,” said she, entering the draw,
ling room. “ how happy this arrival must make
I you. Kind do ValJiere, is he not, to cross the
ocean at this inclement season, and at his ad
vanned age, too, to visit hi.s friend ?”
Her father’s unchecked laugh startled her,
and she turned her head on hearing an ap
proaching step. She met a smile bland and
courteous, it is true, yet showing teeth brilliant
and glittering as pearls. The clear lighted eye
was there, but the lof.y mien wore no stamp of
age. True, the brow was not fair as youth,
but it bore the “ thought of years,” not their
decrepitude. * *
In a year from the time ho first beheld her,
Grace Wentworth stood by the side of Robert
de VaUicro, his wedded wile ; and in the Island
of St. Homingo, in the summer of 1791, Mr.
Wentworth witnessed their almost perfect hap
piness. Grace’s character had become more
perfect by her fulfilment of all the sweet offices
of wife and mother. He saw her amiable hos
pitality, diffusing around her an amosphero of
light and happiness ; he witnessed the charm of
her delightful vivacity and endearing domestic
virtues, “ virtues, which, though they arc said
to love the shade, arc sometimes chilled by the
cares of domestic life.” He saw the belov
jed and affectionate mother; —the heart of the
j husband safely trusting in the principled and
(conscientious wife—the watchful mistress of
; a host of dependants, grateful fbr their ame
liorated condition, and looking to Mons. and
Mad. de Valliere as the creators of their hap
piness.
With So much kindness and liberality had the
negroes on their plantation been treated ; so
many advantages did they enjoy, that it had be
come a proverbial expression among the white
lower people in Cape Francois, in speaking of
another’s happiness, to say “ il csl henreux commc
tin negro dc Valliere."
To Mr. Wentworth, all appeared like a sum
mcr’s morn of bright and tranquil beauty, with
not a breeze to disturb its repose and softness ;
but the calm was treacherous—and only made
the night of darkness and horror that followed
more dreadful.
Business of importance called Mr. Went
worth to New. Englan d; be went, accompanied
by He Valliere ; but Grace, unwilling to leave
her children during she sultry month of August,
remained on the Island.
Bhe had passed a restless night, and on the
morning of the 23d, arose, un re freshed by her
broken slumbers. Her serenity was disturbed
by a confused recollection of being awaken
ed before dawn, by the report of a cannon,
and she felt a gloomy foreboding, an unac
countable depression of spirits, which, she could
not dispel. Even the performance of her morn
ing devotions had failed to restore her usu
al buoyancy of spirits. She sought her nurstery,
and in the caresses of her children, in gazing on
their merry brows and sunny smiles, listening
to the gusli of enjoyment, that broke forth in ir
( repressive laughter, she forgot her own sadness.
! Her youngest boy was in her arms, endeavor-
I ing to blindfold his mother, by binding her lux-
I uriant hair over her smiling eyes, when a loud,
j Sudden and savage yell, broke in upon their in
j uocent merriment. She heard the dying groans
,j of her faithful negroes, mingling with the shouts
and execration of the merciless slaves, who had
arisen in rebellion against their masters. Breath
less and motionless —her hushed aud frighted
children clinging around, —she perceived at once
the horrors by which she was surrounded. Un
certain how extensive was the revolt, siie knew
not if safety could be found in flight; but it was
horrible, thus hopelessly to await her own and
her children’s massacre.
The door of the veranda was cautiously and
silently opened, and Jaraes, ( a sorvant, whose sup
erior intelligence and fidelity had obtained from
his master ids freedom,) appeared. Not a word
was spoken, but catching two of the children in
' his arms, and motioning his mistress to follow,
1 he passed through the veranda and the garden,
i Silently and rapidly, with her child clinging to
! her neck, Grace reached the outskirts of the
' plantation. Here, new horror awaited her.
i A \>and of insurgents demanded with savage ex
citation, the blood of the white woman and her
children.
« Stand back, and let us pass,” said James,
sternly but calmly. “Arc ye men. and woulc
u yc take the life of the black man's friend ? Have
>n Iye gratitude and would ye murder the childrer
iO;j of those who have always protected, andshclter
iCtic-d the negro in his wan's ?”
is; “The lady may go,” said they ; “ but the
vi I ; boy shall not escape us.”
*, I “One of the most ferocious of the band tore
it the trembling child from his mother. Quicker
hau thought, James disengaged himself from
he children ! recovered the toy, and levelled
d ; the savage to tire ground.
- * “ Begone 4 ’’ he cried,“ I will lose my life be
lt»tore \T»u shall harm tin’s bo} - .”
For flic honor of human nature, they were
e i.suffered to escape. Grace passed rapidly, and
- I with averted eye, scenes too horrible to be re-
Jjlated; and reached in safety a retreat in a
-jj neighboring and mountainous wood.
j At night, the faithful James brought them
- I provisions, and intelligence of the proceedings of
- jthe insurgents; and during the day, he kepi
-j! watch around their retreat. But anxious for
‘j their safety,and knowing his Single ami would
.: avail little, should the excited slaves again dia
•ji cover them, he provided a canoe for their cs
ilicapc, and conducted them to it by slow rrlarchcs
j i ■* *
• j 111 the night, along the banks of the river. They
I reached the canoe, but it was soon overset by
i j rapidity of the current, and after a narrow os
• capo they returned to their retreat in the rnoun
■ j tains.
■■ j Nineteen days Mad. de Valiiere and her chil
■ i dreu remained in the wood, before James felt
they could leave it in saucy. He constantly
• I supplied them w ith provisions from the rebel)
camp, and watclicd around them like a guardi-j
i an spirit. Tie at leng'h provided a passage in!
a ship bound for New.Ragland, and conducted
• them, with much hazard and difficulty, to the |
i port.* J
Grace know not how extensive had Leon the
storm of death and desolation, till she saw the!
once flourishing and beautiful town, a waste andi
ruin with thousands of its inhabitants extermin
: ated in the massacre. Her voyage was Iran-1
quil and happy; and in her own, native land,|
she again embraced all who were dear to her. !
Many years have come and gone suite the!
events recorded. Time has whitened the locks|
of Mad. do ValliCrc, and robbed her check cfl
its smoothness ; but has left untouched that,
heavenly spirit that sustained her under the pres- j
sure of ill, and enabled her to endure her sor-';
rows patiently ; it is not the meteor light of ie-i
| vity, but an unwavering, placid beam, that ii- j
lumines those whose faith is fixed upon the Rocki
of Ages.

clcg:mr new Brick Building, b'eg Iruvc to inform
the public generally, that this hotel, with an extensive
range of stables, are now finished in the best style for
| the reception of those who will honor the proprietors j
with their company. This establishment stands bn the
site otthe old City Hotel oh Broad-street, and in point of
commodiousness, with the many recent improvements
(such as bells numbered and corresponding with each
boom, &c. Ac.) renders it superior to any in the South
ern country, it is pleasantly situated and contiguous to
the Steam-boat Wharf and to the point of active business
in the City. It is customary with proprietors in giving
I such information to the public, to extol end render as con
spicuously as possible their establishment. However,
of their own services and the general accommodation
they shall say nothing, leaving them to speak for them
selves. It is due their friends to say, that no personal
exertions or expense shall be spared to render their visi
tors and boarders in every respect comfortable; they
have attentive and obliging clerks and active servants,
j and will provide for their table all the variety and luxu. j

and their stable with good and capable hostlers and the
best provender which can be procured. To this estnb-1

ROOM with a first rate BARBER.
They offer their services to the public, and hope to
merit a liberal share of patronage. To those who have
already honored them with their company, they grate
fully acknowledge their favours.
