FRIENDSHIP.
A Fragment.
* * * SUCH is the man of
experience and principle whose
fricndlhip is a trealure more va
luable than both Indies. There
is fbmething about him won
derfully Toothing and confolt
tory i a certain charm in all he
docs and fays, that strangely fof
tens and ravilhes every fympa
hetic mind. In his presence
die labouring breall is relieved,
and the lwdling heart gets venr j
the faddcit lout becomes cheer
ful, and forruw dies away. In
lhoit he enters into the lpirit of
whatever afift&s us with a feri
flbihty ana eagerness peculiar
to himfclf i his partial imagina
tion broods continually over our
iutereft j our image, c.eater to
him than life, is eonftantly up*
permoft in his thoughts i arid
his hearr, like a firing never on:
of tune, like an inltrument ev, r
true to the touch ot a matter, is
invariably in unilon with ours
O friendfhip, thou belt o!
bldlings that the belt of beings
bellows on the belt of mortals !
thou fairelt and fulled image ot
heaven and immortality ! With
out thee the world is bark; and
life a dream ; thy voice is the
ianguage, the harmony, the mu
tual gratulations, of congenial
aid ientirnental 1, hits; thy
presence the lighr, the comfort,
the glory of humanity. Peace
and prosperity dwell with thee;
health and happiness are in thy
habita ion ; hope and joy, with
a thouland smiling and ramelefs
endearments, sparkle by thy

nignant wherever thou ait.
DR. FRANKLIW
THhi dodtor, in the early
part ot his life, followed the
business of a printer, and had
occafio.i to travel from Phila
delphia to Bofion ; in his jour
ney lie Hopped at one of their

pollcflcd the true disposition of
his countrymen, which is, to be
inquilitive even to impertinence,
into the bufmels of every strang
er- The dodto', after the fa
tigue of the day’s travel, had
let himfelf down to tapper, when
his landlord began to torment
him with qurftions. The doc
tor well knew the dilpofitions
ot thcle people ; he apprehend
ed, that, after having answered
his queltions, others would come
and go over the fame ground,
determined to flop him, “ Have
tou a wife, landlord?”—“ Yes
dr.’’—“ Pray let me lee her.”
Madame was introduced with
much form. “ How many
children have you ?’’ Four, li r .”
“ l lhould be happy to fee them,”
lhe children were loug it and
introduced. “ How many fer
vants L-ve you ■: ‘ l fv.o, fir; |
a man and a woman,”—“ Pray ;
letch them.” When they came, !
rhe dotftor asked if there were a i
ny cure else in the houte ; and
being anfwcred in the negative,
addressed hirnfelf to them wth
much folemniiv ; “My good
friends, I lent for you here to
give you an account of mylelf ;
my name is Benjamin Franklin ;
lam a printer j forty-five years
of age ; reside at Philadelphia,
and am now going from thence
to Boston ; i lent for you all,
that if you wish for any further
particulars, you may ask, and I
will inform you ; which done
I flatter myfelf you will permit
me to eat my supper in peace.”
Anccdrtte tj Dr. Franilio.
WHEN Dr. Franklin was
in England, he spent part of a
day in a rural excursion with
commodore Johnston and oth
ers, In the courle of the after
noon thf’ company separated, &
the Doitor vvii found in a revi
