That he requited the affection of this amia-
woman by attempting to repudiate her,
will surprise no one in the least acquainted
with the general details of his domestic con
duct. The breaking up of his establishment,
the dispersion of his family, and his own loss
of character, were the consequence of this
unhappy step. His appeal to a Court of Jus
tice was heard with impatience, and repelled
with indignation.
In this perplexing position, fi'iy young friend
shone conspicuous, and was as much distin
guished among the members of her own fami
ly, as they were from the ordinary ranks of
society. Her engaging manners and amiable
qualities, attracted the attention of many whose
friendship never afterwards deserted her.—
Among these was the Reverend Thomas Craw
ford, of Lismore, one of the earliest of Mr.
Curran’s friends. To be unhappy, was in it
self a letter of introduction to which he was
never inattentive. He was acquainted with
every member of Mr. Curran’s family; and
the youth, the amiable disposition, and deep
affliction with which his youngest and favorite
daughter was overwhelmed by the separation'

PV^HE Trustees of the above institutions take this method
J. of informing the public, that they are now both in a highly
flourishing condition, under the care of experienced and able
teachers. ~ The male department has about fifty students, and
is under the direction of Mr. Augustus At.dkx, wnose ac
knowledged abilities as an instructor of youth, added to many
years experience in his profession, eminently entitle him to the
patronage of the public.
The Femala department has upwards of sixty pupils, and is
antler the care of Miss A. P. Hamilton, a lady of superior
literary attainments, whose system of discipline and mode ot
instruction have been highly approved, and have secured tor
her a character as an instructress, perhaps unrivalled in this
section of country. The trustees have engaged the services
of Mks M. A. Miller, as an assistant, who is a lady well
qualified for the discharge of het duties.
‘ In the department of Music, they have the services of Miss
E. A. Hevcett, who was a successful and highly approved
teacier of the sciez.ce of music in the Sparta Female Seminary
the last year. ... , , ,
In anticipation of numerous acquisitions to botn departments,
bv the commencement of another quarter, they arc happy to
I state that they have the promise of the Rev. Francis Bowman

her an asylum in his house. If any thing could
have caused her to forget her father, it would
have been the part this worthy man so gene
rously acted towards her. She was to him,
indeed, as a daughter; he loved her, and val
ued her as such. Under his protecting care
she remained, until Mr. Curran recalled his
banished children once more to their home,
and formed a new establishment for their re
ception. But, alas! my poor friend’s life was
but an April day; or rather, it consisted of
“drops of joy, with draughts of ill between.”
The two or three years she spent under the
paternal roof, were the last she was permitted
to number of enjoyment and happiness.
During the long war in which England—
often single-handed—struggled with glory and
success for her own integrity and the liber-
being, as she thought, the certain, though in
nocent cause of Emmett’s unhappy end. Her
arguments were not wholly disregarded by him,
as in one of his replies he remarks :—“ I am
aware of the chasm that opens beneath my
feet, but I keep my eyes fixed on the visions
of glory which flit before them, and I am re
solved to clear the gulf, desperate as may he
the attempt.
The circumstances of Emmett’s trial and
condemnation are too well known to render
it necessary for me to recapitulate them in
this place. After the delivery of his animat
ed and affecting defence, Lord Norbury pio-
nounoed sentence^ of death upon him ; and
the ill-fated man was executed the follow
day, in Thomas-street, near the spot on tv
he had established the revolutionary depot of j
arms and ammunition. Before his death (when
removed to Newgate, after his trial,} he au
thorized a gentleman to announce to govern
ment; as his own declaration, that he was the
chief mover, and instigator of this insurrec
tion; and out of the sum of <£ 2,o00 which he
had received on the death of his father, had ex
pended c£l,400in the preparatory outlay.
A loss of reason, of some months’ continu
ance, spared my poor friend the misery of tra
velling, step by step, through the wilderness of
woe which Emmett’s trial and execution would
have proved to her ; and when she recovered
her senses, her lover had been for some time
numbered with the dead. As soon as her
health permitted, she left the residence of her
father, whose heart remained untouched by
thoi

the world, which, with more than poetic, trutl
had proved a broken reed, and pierced her to the
heart. But God raised up friends to this
stricken deer ; and, in a letter of hers now be

ing of that kind and amiable family, who re
ceived her when deserted by her father,—“ I

siast at that time an exile from his native
country, in Switzerland. In that cradle of
liberty did Robert Emmet, as he said, en
deavor to forget the miseries of his native
country, and the dishonour with which his
soul beheld her branded, and live the life of
a freeman !
When Switzerland, after a vain resistance,
was fettcroal by the shackles of Bonaparte.
Ireland was immediately menaced with a Gal
lic descent; and Emmet, in an ill-fated hour,
landed on her shores, as he affirmed, to avert
the calamity of her becoming a French pro
vince. His plans, by the little that is known
of them, appear to have been perplexed and
incoherent in the extreme ; 'and had they been
otherwise, the premature commencement of
the insurrection would have rendered them
abortive/ After a slight disturbance of only
a few hours’ duration, on the night of July
23, 1S03, in which Lord Kilwarden and some
other loyalists were unfortunately assassinat
ed, peace and good order were again restored.
A few jbf the ringleaders were punished, and
amongst the number, this unhappy worshipper
of Upph/i freedom became a sacrifice to his
romantic/ dream of liberty and patriotism.—
Previously to this eventful period of his life,
Mr. Curran’s eldest sotr, Richard, had been
intimate with Robert Emmet at Trinity Col
lege,! and their youthful friendship, on his
return^) Ireland*was unfortunately renewed.
He introduced his friend to his father and
sisters, and Emmet became a constant visitor
at the Priory. An attachment as ardent as
it was unfortunate, was soon formed between
him and Mr. Curran’s youngest daughter.—
In the outpouring of his .soul to this object
of his idolatry, the enthusiast revealed all his
plans and intentions respecting the meditated
overthrow of the Irish government: happy
would it have been for him, had he attended
to the words of wisdom and of warning that
f.n frnn, her gentle.Jigs: .bot alas! on tins.
While under the protection of this gentie-
man’s roof, she again became the object of an
ardent and disinterested attachment. Among
the many who met and admired her, was Co
lonel Sturgeon/* a person of peculiarly engag
ing manners and deportment, and who, with
the gay good humour,” of the military pro
fession, possessed discernment and -sensibility
enough to appreciate and esteem merits such
as hers; and, had not her heart been seared by
early grief.and disappointment, one who could
not have failed to have experienced tjie most
flattering reception. When he first made his

which, she assured him, could only terminate
in disappointment. She confided to him every
particular of her sad eventful life,—her love,
and her devotedness to Emmett,—and the ut
ter impossibility of her ever being able to re
turn any other affection, however it might dp-
serve the best efforts of her heart; while, at the
same time, she was not insensible to Colonel
Sturgeon’s merits,—well calculated, under
other circumstances, to make the impression
he desired.
In vain did she employ all the eloquence of
grief,—unfold the secret recesses of a heart,
where one image reigned sivpreme ; —and plead
his own cause for biro, by proving how little
he deserved, at least, but a divided affec
