A PiC'l UAh OF MATRI
MONY.
Among the wild birds that
build on i he trees, the male after
feeding h s mate in the nest,
plan s himfelf on the next spray,
and cheerte her with a song.
There is ft ill greater pleasure
providetMbr the human race in
the matrimonial ftatc. and stron
ger incitements to constancy.
Sweet is the society of a pair fit
ted for each other, in whom are
the tendered afie&ions of human
nature. Public government is
in perfeflion, when the fuvereign
commands with humanity, and
the subjects are cordial in their
obedience. Private government
in c rnjugal focetv, arrives at
(till greater perfection, where
the husband and vyFe govern and
am governed reciprocally, with
ent’ne latisfa&iun to both. The
man bears rule over his wire’s
prrfon and condtnft; fiie bears
rule over his inclinations, he gi
ver ns by law ; flic by pet fijafion.
Nor can her authority ever fail,
where it is supported by sweet-
ne sos temper, and zeal to make
him hap, y. Matiimony among
lavages is a very hu nbl* fiate,
for the female lex j but dedicate
organize ion, g:eat lenfibility,
lively imagination, with Iweet
fitds of te i’pcr, above all, quali
fy women for more dignified fo
cietv with men •, which is, to be
their bolbm friends and compa
nions. In die common course
o(female education, young wo
men are trained to make an a
g eeable figure, ; rid to behave
with decen ’y and propriety ; ve-
Jy lit.ltf culture is bellowed on
the head, very little on the heart.
Education so flight and fuperfi
ciul, is far from seconding the
purpose of nature, that or ma
king women sic <:o npanions for
nwn of lenfe. Due cultivation
of tit* female mind, would add
greatly to the happiness of the
males, and Hill more to that of
the females. Tune run* on,
and when youth and beauty va
rnlh, a fine lady who never en
tertained a tiio’c into winch an
admirer did not enter, finds her
iclt a iamentabie void, occasion
ing dilcontenc and peeviftuefs.
But a woman who has merit im
proved by virtuous and refined
education, retains in her decline,
an ii fluence ever the men more
fluttering ven than that of beati
fy j (he is the delight of her
fnen is,, .s formerly or her admi
reis. AJt'iirable would be the
effects o ( inch refined education,
com; bu ii • no Id's to public
good, ‘lu.r; to private happineis.
A man, wa- at prclcnt mult
degrade hid fell into a fop, or a
coxcomb, in o dcr to plcale the
women would lo n discover
that the r favor is nor to be train
ed, but by exerting manly
talent in public and privu e lift;
arui the two fixes inllead ofLor
nij ting each Other, wouid be ri
vals in the race ofvi.tue. Mu
tual fftrein would to each be a
fihool of uibanity ; —an j mu
tu.tl desire ol piealing would give
imoothi.cts to their beluvioi,
delicacy to their len imencs, and
tcniifrneU 10 their pjjhons.
Married wuintn d'pecially,
deUined by nature to take tut
lead in educating their children,
would no longer be the greacefl
obiiruflion to good education,
by their ignorance and frivolity.

moral duties of life, and in wh it
human virtue and dignity con

Formed thus by the difeharge
ofthe relative duties of her Na
tion, fiie marries from affect on,
without lofiag fight of prudence
and looking beyond matrimonial
felicity, !he secures her husband’s
relpeft before it is necelfary to
exert mean arts to pleate him and
feed a dying flame, which na
ture doomsd to expire when
the object became familiar,
when friend (hip and forbearance
take place of a mere ardent af
fection.—This is the natural
death of love, and dom- ftic
peace is not deilroyed by strug
gles to prevent ex.indbon. 1
aifn fuppofc the husband to be
virtuous ; or lhc is ltd! more in
want or ind pendent principles.
Fate, however, breaks this
tie. She is left a widow, per
haps, without a fufficient pcovi
lion ; but (he is not delulale !
Fiie pang of nature is felt ; but
after time has f ifrened furrow
into melanch.dy relignition, her
heart turns to her children with
redoubled fondi.efs, and anxious
to provide for them, affection
givts a sacred heroic calt to her
maternal duties. She thinks
that not only the eye fees her
viriuous efforts from who m all
her comfort mult now fl nv, and
whole approbation is life ; but
her imagination, a little attrac
ted and exalted by grief, civ/ Hs
on the fond hope that the e;ts
which her trembling hand do
led, may Hill fee how she sub j
dues every wayward pafiion to
fulfil the double duty of being
the father as well as the mother
of her children. Raif Jto he

ses the {lift feint dawning of a
narural inclination, before it ri
pens into love, and in die blooa
of life forgets the pleasure of an
awakening pafiion, .which might
again have been mfpired and re
turned, She no longer thinks
of plcafing, and conscious digni
ty prevents her from priding
herleif on account of the praise
which htr conduct demands.
Her children have her love, and
her briglnell hopes arc beyond
tue grave, where her imagination

HOW TO GROW RICH.
An anecdote (founded on fact.)
Prom the Lauuger’s Car.mo.splatc-bcek.
A phylKidfiol the Britilh mc
tiopol.s accidently calling on a
or other ot the profeffion, in the
courie of convnluion, afleed
him the following queftfon :— ■
“ How is it, the world lays
you accumulate and grew rich;
what is your secret ? for with all
polliblc management, and a
practice, as you know, on our
, oCiafionaSiy comparing notes,
Jolly equal to youis, Dfind that
1 can do littlejuore than make
my receipt adequate to my out-
Step into the. entrance hall
with me, and 1 will explain this
matter,’’ was the anfwtr. They
a; journed to that place, where
Shewed his friend the
wiiolc of the secret; it was his
hat, cane, and gloves, lying on
a ja.fte opnofite the flreet door.
4 ‘ 1 unuerltand you,” said the
medical triend, laughed, and
w.iheft him a good morning.
Sjii.e ot my icadcis ruay pro-.
bably will far an explanation :
thu moment a rat rat was heard,
the nrit object which presented
stfelf on opening the door was
lefsly cn, his cane under his
arm, and drawing or. hisglove3 ;
“ We are come to dine and take
a bottle ot port with you,” was
fornetimes the faluution.—“No
thing could be more unlucky,”
replied the warv ecoromift, “ 1
have not yet ften half my pa
tients, and am this moment sent
for to a consultation on a bad J
liver case, which will require
considerable time and attention •,
it is, I allure you, a great disap
poir.tment, but hulFefs mud be
it. ;nded ; and l hope to have the
plealure cf your company ano
iher day.”
, With th r f: words he moved
forward, and wilhcd them a good
corning; a repetition of almofi
the lame ltorry to every visitor at
that hour, soon cleared his house
|f dinner company. He accu
mulated a handsome fortune,
vXitkdleii piftures, purchased
f ar?e books, and at the moment
1 write is erctfting a villa.
DR. GOLD
SMITH.
TpE late Dr. Goldsmith,
ihou;h one of the full charac
icrs n literature, was ‘"as great a
iovic ,n the common occur
renc ;of life. H s own heart
per.ttiy harmless, he imagined
evi'tj man he lit* in company
- with?o(ldled of the lame. The
folio ing anecdote will place
this abiervation m a proper
poir.of view:
Sjing one evening at the
Glol-Tavern, F;eet-ftreet, he
callufora mutton chop, which
was sooner placed on the ta
ble, an a gentleman with whom
• 1C ‘ls intimately acquainted,
turnc up his nole, and aik.*d
how (e do&or could fuffer the
xaite(:o place such a (linking
chop j; fore him? “ flanking
lays fc doiflor—“in good truth
i d<’t fnell it.” “-I never
lmekny thing so disagreeable
in njlife.’Nays the gentleman ;
“thdascal dderves to'be caned
for Jing so heedlcfs as to biing
youjiah a carrion.” “In good
.ruq (fays the poet) I think lo
’■oojbut I will be iels feve r e in
(Yiy br.iflimenc.” He inflantiy
caili the waiter, and after pur-
the poor fellow that the
chojftunk worse than asafeetida,
he lifted as punilhment, that
he buld sic down and eat it
up Infelf- The waiter argued j
outr might as well attempt to
beatharies M icklin out of an
opipn. The doflior threaten
ed flknock him down with his
cani if he did not immediately
confly with the punilhment.
Jien the waiter had l'wallow
f the chop, the doffor gave
gFfs of wine, thinking,
witl his usual good-nature, jc
woijft make the remainder of
iefs painful. When
thei/aiter had done, Goldfmuh’s
fried buffi into a hoarle-1 lugh.
“ Vhatin God’s name, ails you
r.pij ?” fays the poet. “Indeed
try dear fiiend, 1 could never
pink that any man, whose know
idge ®f letters was so exteniive
i your’s, could be so great a
jupt to a ftrokc of humor; the
hop was as fine a one as ever I
win my fife.”—“ Was it ?
ays the doffor) then 1 fhail nt
tr give credit v to what you fay
tain j and so, in good truth, I
In even with you.”
