CANZONET. Lady ! not fur her we 1 igh, Loosing eny fashen's dye, And her charms to ev'ry eye Revealing : Bui we love the pretty maid In sweet nodes ty array'd. All her hiqut'us ‘math its shade Conce ding, Lady ! when with graceful care, Ton would deck-yotir bosom fair, Or your wanton flowing hair IVith roses — Ah ! you throw the flowdre away , Which open, glares upon the day : The modest bud more sweets, we say, Discloses. HUMAN LIFE, La Mo the h Vayer is astrniaent inlhnce of the fina.l portion of happinefa we taste in this life. To the eyes of the world, this learn ed mao appeared encircled by felicity ; but he fays, ‘ Life alone seems to me a thing so indif ferent, to fay nothing more to its dilad vantage, t!:at 1 am so far from ever defiling to ran the race again, that I would not exchange the few days which remain to me, in so advanced an age as mine, for the many years which a great number of young people, whose pleasures I know, promise themfebes. I could swear to the troth cf this, as well as Cordan, whose words 1 quote, rather for their good fenffe than their elegance. They were to this purport — By G—, I would not crchm gc my httie for tune, even in my old age, with yhe riche ft young -man who has no experience.” Bayle has rea f ned on tbi3 declaration of La Motive le Vayer, with hi 3 aecullomed sagacity. He enhmerates the various enjoy meats of the fehohr, who, even iu an advanced period cf life, retained ail the •vigor of his mental and corporeal faculties.— He married, at abor t feveuty, the daughter of rut ambaffadpr, and his wife was a strew. He pul'idled several works alter his marriage, and they gave no marks of dotage. He was hon ored by the French nation,, and liberally pen honed by the court. He had titles and em- , ploymeats j h:3 multifarious works fold well, 1 What therefore could be wanted, in thfe rich , a non it of human felicity, to complete the hap-j pinefs of Le Vayer ? Cicero, in his Treaties on Old Age, declares, that if the gods offered to replace him once more in the cradle, he would reje£l the offer— for that life had nothing to recommend it. Sir ‘William Temple, with easy ■ elegance fays,— (i That human life, is at the great est mid the heft, but Lite a froward child, that mnft be played with, and humoured a little, till it falls asleep !—and ‘.hen the cares are over.’ The poetess Sappho imagines, “that to die is an evil : the gods have so determined it, or else they would and e themselves.” What a forcible epitaph an Arabian poet composed, to have in feribed on his torr.b. “ This crime did my fath- j cr commit agaiuft me, but I have not committed the fame agaiuft any.” —®r. i bushels Corn, Landing this day at Moor’s wharf, for tale By E. & C.
