Thou tiat’st to give, though run ning oe’r ; I scorn to cause the slightest pain Bo pr’ythee take them back again Nay, with good int’rest be it done Tiiou’rl welcome to take ten lor one, LOVE. Mental love is a thing as pure as light, sacred as a tem ple, lading as the world. That love that can cease, as laid an ancient was never true. Men tal love contains in it all iweet ncis, all society, all felicity, ail piudence, and ail wisdom. It is an union of all things ex cellent; it contains proportion iaiisfatiion, rclf, and confi dence. The eyes ofa wife are then lair as the light ol hea ven ; a man may then case ins cares, and lay dow.i his sor rows upon her ! ap, and can retire home as to his ianduary and refectory, and his gardens of i weetnefs and ol chalte te frelliment. A handsome young woman who was a witness in a trial of ctitn. con. before Lord Manf fiefd, was interrogated by Counfellor D ——, who think” ing to con Fife the woman, made Let take oft her bon net, that he might have a view of her counter-a nee, and Lee (for ad cotinfelloTS arc com pletejudge's of phyftognomy) whether the truth came from her lips. After he had put many ridiculous quell ions to her, he allied her whether her miff refs had ever communica ted the important fee ret to her ? “ No, fir, (fa id the wo man ) she never did.” And how can you swear to her in fidelity ?** Brcaufe I saw a nothcr gentleman besides my mailer in bed with her.” In deed! (laid the Counfellor) “ Yes, indeed, fir.” And pray my good woman, (laid the model! Counsellor, thinking to ftlence her at once) did your mailer, (for I fee you are very , handsome) in return for his ; wife’s infidelity, go to bed to j \ou? ii That trial (fays the fpinted woman) does not come , on to day, Mr. Shbberchops !” j Lord M. was ticked to ihe l foul, he tfirult his hand into the waiflband ol hi . breeches, (his culiom when highly tic. | ligh ed and allied I) *f ne j had anv more interrogaiot res e c/ to put ? “ No, my Lord, have done,” laid the chop fl. ien Orator, leafing his wig and fitting down.

One is Ire- j cpiently brim in a family of j half a dozen children, the rest of Whom have gcneiaily full hex! h -lid fatuities. 1 lie, cretins are treated with a fuprrif jiious regard ; and, in I’ome fam-iies, a child of this cicicription i valued more than ihe other chiiciicn, under the luca that it is a medium of tir te'ary orureflion. This kind of fu peril it ion is known to pre vai 1;n oihcr parts of the world, and procures relpett to idi otilin in lome countries, where a defpoi -and savage policy (ports freely with the ul'efu! life of man !

Horns.— -At the refloration of Charles 11. doctor Bull, af terwards bishop of St. David’s, who had zealoully supported the royal caule ir. the time of ihe rebellion, was presented by the king with the grant of his former living, which the chan cellor Hyde, made fome diffi | culty to confirm. Thedofctor I found his pocket exhauflcd by i this delay, but being a man of ’ wit, and knowing the king’s humour, be took occalion one day to tel! biin that he had just had his pocket picked, and had not a Hulling left- Well (aid the king, and can’t you tell the thirl ? Why. replied Bull, if I may speak the truth, I have caught your majedy’s hand in it, and out he pulled the grant. Cod's ft jh ! fays the king, are you not yet presented to your liv ing y No replied Bull, nor ever fit dll with your chancellor’s Leave. On this the king gave • hint a grant of a better prefer | nrseiif, which was then vacant, I with a peremptory order to the | chancellor to present him. I When he waited on his loid r Ihin, the chancellor Hired him [ Ins name, Bull, tnfwered he. Evil! fait! the chancellor, v,here are your horns ?
