The following lines were written on the ckath oi Emmet, TI'ZS —SRIN CO fcftAH. 1 Dtjpair in her wild, eye, a daughter of Erin Appear'd on the cliffs of the bleak rocky fhore ; JLooJe in the wind flow'd her dark Jl reaming ringlets, And beedlefs Jhe gazed on the dread jurge.s tear i Loud rang her harp in wild tones of defpairih* The time paft away with the prefent comparing, In foul thrilling ftrahs deep eft for row declaring. She Jang Erins woes and her Em met no mure, Ob'Erin my country thy glory's de parted, For tyrants and traitors have ft abb'd thy heart's core ; Thy patriots are fled, or are broken hearted, 7 by children do welter and bleed i:t their gyre. Ruthljs r:\pfians new prowl thro ’ thy hamlet's ferjaken, Fran pals hungry orphans their laft tnvrjels taken, TheJcr earns of thy “females no pity a waken. Alas ! my poor country thy Em vnet's no more, Tho * brave was hisfpirit, yet mild as the Bt am in, His heart bled in mrgdjh, the wrongs of the poor, To relieve their hard fuf'rings he brav'd ev'ry danger, The frowns of tyrants undauntedly bore. E'en before him the proud titled vil lains in power It erefern, tho’ in ermine, with terror to cower. But ah! be is gone, he has fallen a y ung fio wsr. They murdered my Emmet, my .Emmet’s no more .

WOMEN HAVE NO FOu LA. A STORY. A Scotch Clergyman, whole wife was a defetndant ot the famous Xan rippe, (die fcold of antiquity ) in gou g through a courfe of ie&urt-s on the Revelation? of St. John, im bibed from the abftrufe writer an opinion, that the fex have no fouls “and were incapable of future re wards and punishments. Ic was no fooner known in the country that he maintained fuch a doftnne, than he was fummoned before a Pn fo, - ft ry of his brethren, to be dealt* wi'ch according to his delinquency. When he appeared at their bar, th< j ‘afked him, if lie really held fj here tical ah opinion ? He rold them plainly that he did. On defiring ro be informed of his reafofts for fa doing—Li the Revelation of Sc. John the Divine,* laid he, you will find this pa flag*—“And there was fiience in Heaven for about the fpace of half an hocr.” Now I appeal to all of you, whether that could p* fTibly have happened, had there been any woman there ? And fince there are none therr, chanty forbids to imagine that they are in a worfe kwi, that they have no hr.metal part, arid are exempted from being accountable for all the node and diftur banco they raife in this world. The converfation havirg turned in the prefen- e of Dr. FiankKn, upon riches, and a young per (on in the company havirg expit fled his furprife that they ever fhould be attended with fuch anxiety and foli citucle, Inflaming one of his ac quaintance, who, chough in pojfifef fion of unbounded wealth, yet was as bofy and more anxious than the mofl arduous clerk in his count ing houfe : The Doftor toek 3n apple from a fruit bi.fker, and pre femed ic co a little child, wild could juft cotter about the room. The child could ftarce grafp it in’ s his hand. lie then gave him another which occupied the other haiid.— Then chooflnga third, remarkable for its fize and beatify, he prefented that alfo. Ihe child, after many ineffectual attempts to hold three, dropped the laft on the carpet, and burft into tears. See there, ,aid the philofopher, thete is a litrie man with more riches than he can enjoy. Wil'd ICISM. A woman being brought before a juftice to be examined, and ap pearing to have an urn ommon fhaie of confidence, for the female itx, the juftice obferved—“Madam, there is brafs enough in your face to make a five pail kettle.”— “Yes,” fan fwered fhe) “and there is fap enough in vour head to fill it.” ADM I NISTR A 1 RIX SALE.
