<• SUMMER EVENING.
From the Poems cf the late Mr,
Richard Bingham Davis,
recently published at N. Tork.
ZI.IZ A, vitw tlii* p'acid scene,
Wh*re evening (bed* her silver smile-j
Calm Solitary, and serene,
Her*! cl u> rove and muse awhile.
Behold the gentle waving-free*
That turn to zephyr’s lafl embrace ;
While on the llowly pading I>rceze
JVlild nurfic frnrn* with foften’d grace.
Sweetly repeated through the grove,
Refponfire, hark, the night birds caW,
Chiming theirfylvan note* of lore,
To the low murmuring water fall.
How lovely is the gentle rill,
Ijy.the fond, fportivr moon heami kift;
The mead—the wood—the distant hill,
High crown’d with evening’* dewy inifU
Here meditation loves to tread.
And fancy here delights to (tray;
And leaving oft the flothlul lied,
Here genms wait* the riling day.
Though charming the romantic feent,
Whether at morning’*radiant hour,
Or when the evening flar serene
Sheds on the earth it* dewy power ,
In vain the landfeape, gay and bright.
Extend* its varying o<antics far;
hi vain the amorous bird* of night
Salute the evening’* twinkling flar.
UnlciT, Ecu*, thou art there,
These plexfures bring no joy to me ;
And when thepurefl hlilTl (hare,
I love to think, ’twn (lured with the*.
CREDULITY* j
The people in Province
in France, were formerly re- ;
xnarkabiy given 10 believe and i
report (h tinge and surprising 1
tales. About forty years ago,
as the story goes, a,ne of the
inhabitants of the place went to
the famous town of Toulop on
business. and rtflefting on bis
return, of the disposition of his
countrymen to believe and re’
port ffrange news, he thought
of a (theme to lurprife them.
Accordingly when men afkcd
for news, lie reported, that a
tree had jull grown up in the
mouth o( the harbor of Tou.
lon, so biabtnd ltrong, with
branches from tide
to fide, (o thick and difficult
to be removed that the royal
navy could neither pals in, or
go out of the ha? bor and there
was a great probability of the
finrbor’s being ruined by it..
The reporter being delayed by
bufiinels on his journey home,
the report got a head of him,
and be beaid it told so often,
that he entirely forgot that he
was the author of ii, and be
gan to credit the story ; nor
cqmld bereft fatLfied till he
went all the way back to Tou
lon, to fatisfy himlelf whether
the llory was true or falfe.
This llorv the writer had
from a Frenchman, a respecta
ble inhabitant of Toulon, of
the name of Euback, in the
year 1780.
HISTORICAL.
C R U E L T V.
Com modus, the Roman em
peror, when hut twelve years
old, gave a {hocking mltance
of his cruelty at Ceritumcella,
now called Civiti Vecchia,
when (stiding the water in which
he bathed lome what too warm,
he commanded the per ion whu
attended the bath to be thrown
into the furnance: nor was he
fatisficd till thole who were
about him pretended to have
■put his order in execution.
After his acccftioii to (he em
pire, he equalled, if he did not
exceed in cruelty, Caligula,
Domitian, and even Nero him
felf; playing, wc may fay.
with the blood of hi> Mbjecls
and fellow creatures, of whom
he can led great numbers to be
racked and butchered in his
prcfencc, merely for his diver r
fiori. Seeing one day a corpu
lent man pals by, he immedi*
ately cut him alitnder; partly
to try his (Length, in which he
excelled all men, and partly
out of curiosity, as himfelf
owned, to fee his entrails drop
out t once. Some he mur r
dered becaufethey were negli” j
gently drdTed; others because j
they seemed trimmed with too
much nicety. He assumed the i
name and habit of Hercules, ;
appearing publicly in a lion’s :
skin, with a huge club in his j
hand, and ordering several per- j
lons though not guilty of any l
crimes, to be disguised like
inonlters, that by knocking
out their brains he might have
a better claim to the title, the 1
great deftrover of monffers. j
In fhortjthe flieddingof blood |
seemed to be his chief diver’ 1
fion.
I
Seme years since, maleXaih- j
ions of jackets and neckcloths j
prevailed among the females, i
but the ladies have since deter
mined to differ ftotn the gen
tlemen as much as poflible—
therefore, while our Beaus car
ry their hands in their pockets,
our Belles carry their pockets
in their hands. *
