Ye arc dew-drops whose lustre illumines the thorn; And rayless that night is, that morning unblest, When no beam from your eye lights up peace in the breast. And the sharp thorn of sorrer- sinks deep in the heurt, Till the sweet lip of woman assuages the smart; Tis bar's o’er the couch of misfortune to beinl, In fondness a lover, in firmness a friend.

FOR THE RECORDER. Gentlemen : The following communication from the pen of a young iady of Mill dge- villc, is no less distinguished for elegance of language than it is for propriety of sentiment, and cannot fail to please the numerous pat-’ roiis of the Kecorder, who have been so often instructed with the judicious and chaste selections with which aportion of that paper is usually enriched. Should this essay “shine illustrious through the sable cur tains of your ink,” you may occasionally be favored with more communications from the game pen, through tho medium of A SUBSCRIBER. Milledgeville, July 22. “Not the pure,open, prosperous love, That, pledg'd on earth ami seal’d above, Grows in the world’s approving eyes, In friendship's smile und home’s curess, Collecting all the heart’s sweet ties Into one knot of happiness!’’ L.illa Rooan Messrs. Editors : If I were compelled “ to -give a reason upon compulsion,” for devoting five present essay to the following subject, l would say, that the frequency of an event is not only a sufficient justification for anyone to enquire into certain circumstances that, may grow out of it; but to a philanthropist like myself, it is an imperious duty. Who are married, and who are going to be mar ried. make up at least two thirds of the com mon place conversation of this “signal Me tropolis.” Indeed so frequent are" nuptial celebrations, that conversation among social parties as laturally turns oil matrimony as it does on war and taxes among politicians, or the rate of exchange among brokers. So str lugly does this pleasant current set in this quarter, that I very much hope L will bear oft’every old maid and batchelor. Although, as yet, 1 have not. worn the “joyful chain,” still in my thoughts there is a “ huge liking” to the good old institution. Whilstenioying, therefore, the pleasure of my friemh~unly in the more than “ feast of roses,” I would not be neglectful of their future well being, by forewarning, not only them, but all my un married readers of some of the causes-of ma trimonial infelicity. Our illustrious countryman Fra: his usual correctness and precisioi that tl)4kippit|Ms of mankind coi much mmeatWul r.,re piec tu )«, whicdheUl tnjnqipen, as in Is which ocdutyviVy dky.\This * applies witlFpecmiar^'orTO utme. married state, whose happiiosl , most part, made up hy the recij charge of kind olH.-es; which, till ill themselves, ull'ord a world oWpleasure ■when performed with that peculiar aflTection which should always exist in tins intimate connection. Hence, we at once see tipi in dispensable necessity that a pure, generous, and reciprocal attachment should he the leading motive to connections of this kind. It would seem that between persons thus u- nited, no difference could exist or unhappi ness arise: and indeed, 1 believe it is very seldom the case. Why comes it then that so many “souls are chained to eternal strifg?” 1 answer, 1st,-because they have been led to ■wear it by improper motives, the principh of which in the present age, is wealth. So prevalent is the love of money among, the piejeut generation, that, in matrimony, it is almost a sine qua non. Every body mils u- gaiust it, but “ each likes a snack ;is well as -his neighbor.” Lake fashion, it has the ma- gic power ol rendering deformity beautiful; of making old age and decrepitude assume •the charms & vivacity of youth, and even co vering vice wuh the celestial mantle of vir tue. The feeble rays of intrinsic worth and § enms are eclipsed hy the splendor of its ra- ience “ and mammon wins his way where eeraphs might despair!” Nay, like charit v “it will cover a multitude of sins.” This all powerful principle of attraction, whilst it brings and hinds together, minds of the most discordant sentiments and dispositions, cor rupts dud vitiates the taste and passions, and renders a refined and happy union the more impossible. If ,we were certain of the per- J ietuity of its possession the gross und eartli- y enjoymeut it aHbrds, might give some in demnity for the sacrifice made in obtaining it; but how uncertain is the tenure by which {be rich man bolds all bis soul adores! how often docs fortune, with all tlie apparent mat* lice of a da'nion se.ein to exalt us, only to delight in our fall! Nearly allied to this are those motives of interest or expedience which drug many to the ultar, who are utterly destitute of e'erv thing like a generous affection. It will be perceived that in all convictions of this kind, little or no attention is paid to the different taste, disposition, habits, Etc., of the parties ; those numerous springs from w Inch »’ow all the happiness or misery of the married life. As well might a mariner expect to reach a fo reign port without compass or helm as a man or woman to expect happiness who marries from the preceding motives. The misera ble dupes who arc thus united, may for a time feel an unmeaning' happiness, but soon- r or later succeeds indifference ; next, dis gust, and finally among the more vulgar, o- pen quarrelling and separation. What mise ry on earth can he more exquisite than to he thus closely united to a being, whose very person and every action excites no other utiment but abhorrence and detestation !— It is hard to determine who are most fre quently influenced by these motives, men >r women. After a certain age, I believe in stances in females are decidedly the most numerous. It requires more philosophy than falls to tlie lot of many women to act dis creetly and disinterestedly oil a proposition of marriage, when she is forever haunted by the hideous spectres which perpetually fill before the. disquieted imaginations of old maids. When therefore 1 see an animal thus guided hy the yoke of Hymen, I most gene- ally think she is only doing penance fur the sins and omissions ol her youth. 2d. The next cause of matrimonial infeli city which we shall consider, is disappoint- incut, originating from enormous views re lative to tlic happiness and circumstances ol this state. Persons who have formed their notions of matrimonial felicity from the o- verwraught pictures to he found in novels nd romances, may not only expect to be disappointed, but will most certainly fail to lize tlie illusive scenes ofhliss therein por trayed. Hence the unfriendly influence of this species of writing ill this respect, parti cularly with females, who, possessing the reasoning faculties in a less degree than males, are move apt to take for .granted whatever they read, especially about love.— The mind that can delight itself with such love sick trash, is unworthy the dignity of a human being. There is no situation in life but Ins its peculiar troubles—even the most happy estate of matrimony is not exempt from them. Those therefore who enter this state with expectations of a perpetual spring of rapturous delight, are but illy prepared to meet the bleak winter of disappointment, to which all are as certainly liable as they cxi Tho romantic passions of such persons, Ulus unexpectedly arrested in their wild career; like an undisciplined army suddenly assail ed by an ambushed enemy, give way, arc thrown into disorder, anil are often overcome by a very trivial force. Do not therefore look open your companions as angels or godde scs, nor expect from them the perfec tion ol’such superior beings ; nor as the he roes and heroines of story, which exist no where hut in the distempered imaginations of their authors; but as beings like your selves, subject to the. like infirmities of frail human nature. You will then he prepared to bear with their errors, pardon their faults, and teuderly pity and support their weak ness. t)d. Though the parties may have been so fortunate as to escape all th* preceding, they are still liable to another and very frequent cause of connubial misery, viz. u great dis similarity in the taste, sentiment, disposition and amusements of the parties. Were I ask ed what I would most anxiously desire in husband I would answer a taste of sentiment, and whose objects of amusement were ex actly similar to my own; whose disposition was exactly the counterpoise of mine ; that is, where mine possessed a bad trait, his should posses*®l equivalent good one, capa ble of averting its unhappy effect: for I am persuaded thattliere are dispositions exactly similar that would not agree well together. What circumstance could interrupt, the hap piness of hearts united as above r 1 Hut can any real happiness exist where there is a to tal difference in all these principles, united to a perverse, unyielding disposition ? So far from it that I very much doubt whether there can exist any real affection. There may be a considerable difference in one or more of these principles, yet if the dispositi on be mild and y ielding, the. parties may live happily together. Witherspoon, who paid much attention to this subject, has said that there is a greater prospectof happiness m the connexion of a woman of superior taste,- kc. to a man of inferior, than where the contra ry obtains. That women more easily ac commodate their habits to those of their hus bands than men do to those <>f their wives This remark I thicik will be most generally verified by every impartial observer. From a.review of what has been said on this part of the subject, we find that much depends on the disposition. Tlie intimate union of thought find feeling, which should exist m the. married state, to produce all that happi ness which it is capable of affording, must produce something like an assimulation.— This should be effected hy an entire yield ing of one party in some instances, and by a mutual giving up in others. Hence we at once see that a forward, obstinate, mulish disposition is of all others the most fruitful source of matrimonial infelicity. In fact it is the master evil spirit, which, like an impe rial tyrant, whero.it exist, compels all the o- tlier .passions to wear its livery. Most of the other modifications and grades of what is termed ill nature, are bearable, producing only temporary inconvenience whilst the heat of passion last; but wherever this ac cursed trait is found, an angel might almost despair ol enjoyment. This unhappy dispo sition is very frequently the offspring or ac- coinpanymcnt of mental imbecility, which coders the situation of its hapless possessor the more deplorable, as there is less prospect of reformation Gentle reader! if you are tied to such an one, from my soul 1 pity you. Though there be little hope of a radical change, yet something may he done, l.ike a prudent and skijful damon, you may in some degree elude the force of .4, storm if you -possess a good disposition and discreti on yourself. In order to which, much good sense., patience aard prudence on your partis necessary. I would reprove the conduct of such an one gently by precept, and forcibly hy ftKiunple. From this, as a general direc tion, circumstance^ ana your own judgment wijl teaeh you when and how much to de- via,c. Be certain of one thing, never let the conduct of your companion throw you into a passion. Whenever resentment and monstrance is necessary, tiu it firmly; but without ill nature. To conclude. To the unmarried I would say, let not money or expedience iniluence your choice. Study thoroughly, and make yourself intimately acquainted with the taste, I &tc. of the individual you wish or design to marry. To the mameii, l would say, ifyou have been led fo your connexion b) the al-1 box ; but smelling slightly to the deli- ing objects of wealth or interest alone, I cious mixture, lie ■exclaimed, wilh dis your prospects of enjoyment are very small Ifyou (inu happiness, 1 shrill lie glad of it— f not, your fate will he a just punishment for your cupidity. To those who, from wrong conceptions of the married state; and to those who from cureless observation on an artful concealment, have been disappoint ed, 1 would say, though you are not now as formerly the sole arbiters of your own for tune, y t you may evade many of its impen ding evils. Consider that human being; arc ever subject in this life to human frailty .— Make amends therefore for your disappoint ment hy a studious attempt to please in the discharge of all your relative duties with promptness and affw’lion. Thus, unless your companion he a monster indeed, you will secure his or her esteem and kind regard ; overcome the opposing difference of senti ment, See. and Lisle those refined sweets that this diviticinstitution was intended to afford. OCTAV1A. FROM THE HERMIT IN LONDON. HIGHLAND HOSPITALITY. With gold gems if Chilian mountains glow , If hlcitk uniWiarren Scotia’s hill arise ; There; plague and poison,last and rapino grow; Here, peaceful are the vales and pure the skies, d trc.edom fires the soul ami sparkles in the eyes. Beattie. I once resolved to leave London for a little time, merely on the principle tha ! ‘ short absence urges sweet return;” ind as t-t'iin, tlie famous epicure, hud suiil that lie would go down to Land's End to eat a John Dory fresli out of the water, so did I determine to set off for the .Moors, that 1 might see the game which they produce dressed in tlie highest per fection. “ Put up half a dozen changes of lin- ,” said I to my servant, •• six waist coats, same number of stockings and em its, two pair of bools, and two pair of slices, one strong and tho other half dress, w ith one coat, as I shall travel in my great coat and shooting jacket.”— l’lius equipped, l put my dogs in under my gig, took my servant and gun by the ide of me; and set olf. 1 will say no thing of my lour until I came to Perth, l'here l was delighted with its localities, with tlie urbanity of its inhabitants, and with the easy, unembarrassed, uncere monious hospitality of its vicinity. I then started for tlie Moors in right ear nest, loaded with all sorts of sporting tackle. 1 remarked at the very worst road side inns, built by government for the accommodation of travellers, a degree of unobtrusive civility and attention, of kindness and of anxiety to please, high ly contrasted to the officious impertin ence of our London landlords and wai ters,—the former full of consequence, the*latter apeing the higher puppies on whom they wait. We bad no “ Coming Sir,” and “ Yes, my Lord ; allow me to recommend the old hock, or hermitage,” no obtrusive praises of tlie cellar, nor scraping and capering like that of the frosty-faced waiter at Long’s ; neither bad we the bills as long in proportion However humble the fare, the wine wit: always excellent, and the charge reason able. I should have had pretty good sport the first day, but 1 lost my way on the moors, and got wet to the skin ; my strong shoes gave way like brown paper ; and I came back to the inn almost barefoot ed. I called for some spirits to rub the eoles of my feet with ; and sat down by the kitchen fire, in order to change a part of my apparel and to dry the rest. In one corner of the huge fireplace sat Jeannette, the grandmother of the family, spinning, and singing an old mar tial ballad, which sounded to me more wooden and monotonous than the noise of her reel. In another corner was little ragged boy, reading Latin!! ! (for education is every tiling in Scotland ;) and in the third corner, a venerable- looking, ruddy, silver-haired highlander, in the garb of old Gaul, with a thick staff, reclining on one arm, and a cutty pipe (i. e. a short pipe) in his mouth. He very urbanely raised his bonnet from his head, and asked tne if his smoking was offensive ? A courtier could not have done it better. 1 answered in the ne gative. As I pulled off my ragged shoes, tic looked at them with an air of pity, and exclaimed, “Heigh! heigh) Sirs, what sort o’dancing shoon to cross our muirs wi! Nile wonder an ye’ll hue your feet sair I” I notv.procced to rub the soles of mv feet with a mixture, sis I imagined, ol' gunpowder, sulphur, and other combos tibles, which thdy culled Fairntcsh. Tlie aged highlanc'er was indignant at this. “ Fie, fie !” cr ied he, “ Lad, tak it i’your mou ; it will be soon enough down at your heels, without wasting and abusing the liquor saea” I was going to comply with his advice, hut the liquid nearly choked me. It had all the smell of a turf-cabin under conflagration, and was as hot as the llanr. He laughed immo derately at seeing me spit it out ; and, taking two bumpeij s, in order to encour age tne, and to pro ve that it was not poi son, and tapping n, e goodnaturedfy on the shoulder, he im brined me that it was mother's milk to hi n ; that he always took a bumper fasti la . and that a bottle o't would nae frighten him any day. 1 saked his age.-—about I eighty. Had lie always liveirso ? “ lY uch aboon it.” 1 now found that he win the grandfather ; and that he often usee ’ to dance all the night, with four and tne ntv children and grand-children. We soon got quite fam iliar and intim ate. As 1 was proceedim ; in my toilette, lie took out ids mull, atm! offered me a pinch of snuff; but if. wa%\ not to be en dured : 1 would just as soitn have taken burning touchwood pulveri, ied. 1 there fore literally let it slip tlm\ >ugli my fin gers ; and taking out my gor’d snuff-box, in which there was the hupp v mixture of Etrcnnes, burean, macauba. land a Ton kin bean, I presented it to tin ■ Caledoni an. lie was tiagzied a iiuJi with tlic (lain, “ It’s only lit for lasses.” liut, recovering himself, and repressing « blush, which "ns partly tinged with u contempt of wbat hie severe and athletic habits deemed ellcminucy, und deeper crimsoned Crum n generous fear that lie had offended me, he added,—“ hut I’m Tthe same oblceged to ye ; wedinna un derstand the nirk-mikeries o’thc toun.” I made an excellent dinner on some nmirfowl and a iiiutlon-bani, and di auk my bottle of wine, with my highlander by mv side (for 1 thought the old man an original, and asked him to dinnei). He iing me some warsongs, with the voice ofaStcntor. I hey wore unintelligible to me, being in Gaelic ; but lie explain ed to me that they weic anout war and love ; and as these two passions brought impressive remembrances to his mind, his colour went and came, und a jewel of the first water glistened in his eye. In the course of conversation, he told uie that lie had been oot wi’ Chairlie in tin' forty-fit e. Here he heaved a sigh “ for the days of lang syne*” and, for a mo ment, ids manly features assumed a con templative expression of reminiscence, n liich would not have disgraced the Ro man pencil, nor tlie lire i in rliisi 1. We parted good friends at night; and the next morning, it was agreed that lie sfio..Id lend me a pair of brogues for shooting, and that I should both hunt and fish, as shooting is called liuntin„ in his wild country, and not without reason, since a man hunts for game as well as shoots. It was moreover settled that jiis boy, meaning his son, a man nearly sixty, snould be my guide, and that, in return for the honour I did tlie old man in asking him to dine, I should pass the night at his cabin, on my way to other nioors. The old man was to wake me to prepare my welcome. He came at day-break; and finding my belt on the chair by my Uedside, ran off as if ho was hit hy a mad dog “Do nald, Rone, Moggie,” 1 heard him cry, whilst he held the belt in his hand, “shoot me, if we ha’na gotten a worn- man (making two strongly accepted syl lables of it) in bed instead ofa man. Nae wonder that the pair thingy should be sau worn out yestreen, an’ could nae drink thewhuskey t” 1 confess that this mortified me a little ; but i called out lustily to. him for my belt, and assured him that all people of fashion wore them in town. For a moment, he looked con tempt ; but, changing to an air of paterni ty and kindness, he said, “ Sae, sue ! wonders will never cease. That 1 should live to see a man wear stays 1 Wcel a weel, Sirs ; but (turning to me,) my dear, dinna wear the nasty things ; you n weel made enough without them, and ye’ll never climb oor hills ai’ sic whale bone vagaries.” To please uiy old man, l dressed myself without them, und it proved pretty clear in tlie sequel that they would have somewhat encumbered tne in hill-climbing. When I had paid my reckoning, and received a thousand blessings ami good wishes, to none of which 1 was insensi ble, as they seemed to proceed from the heart, I set forward with tlie boy of six ty, who certainly was a boy to me in his activity and resistance against fatigue. My good hostess put in some cold moor- fowl and a flagon of old brandy, for nei ■ tlier of which she would take payment, observing, “ Thct my guidness to her faether merited any kindness which, in their humble way, they could shew me ; and besides that, kindness to strangers and travellers was as much their duty and pleasure as their interest.” 1 heartily shook my landlady by tlie hand, and pro ceeded on my way, a little boy begging to lighten me of my gun, until l came to the first likely place for game All this, though humbly and simply de monstrated, is, the very essence of hos pitality; the recollection of which warms my heart whilst 1 am writing these lines WILL BE SOLD, O N the first Tuesduy in Shq-tcinber next, in the town of Dublin, Laurens county, be tween tbc usual hours of side, tlie following pro perty, to \\ it : goo trillions Whiskey, BO gallons Ruin, 150 pultons ni Gin, 50 pillions Cherry Bounce, 15 pillions (’opniiie Hi unity, 15 gallons Wine, go pultons Apply Brandy, 1 hogshead and B barrels Supur, BO!i wt.
