S some fair violet, loveliest of the glade,
Sheds its mild-fragrance on the lonely shade,
% Withdraws its modest head from public fight,
Nor courts the fun, nor seeks the glare of light;
Should fame rude hand profanely dare intrude,
And bear its beauties from its native wood,
Expos'd abroad its languid colors fly,
its form decays, and all its odours die.
So Women, born to dignify retreat,
Unknown to flourish, and unseen be gteat;
To give demeftic life its sweetest charm ;
With foftnefs poliffi, and with viraewarm :
Tearful of fame, unwilling to be known,
Should feck but Heav'n's applaufcs and her
own;
Should dread no blarae but that which crimes
impart,
The confutes of a fdf-condemning heart.
Heaven's minift'ring angel, the mould feck the
cell
Touched with the most tender senti
ments of refped and gratitude for the
memory of the dearest objed of his at
tachment, the young Montpenfier or
dered a magnificent service ; then caus
ed the tomb to be uncovered, in order
to bathe with his tears the precious
affies of his much beloved father.
Where modest want and filers anguish dwell;
Raise the weak head, sustain the feeble knees.
Cheer the cold heart, and chafe the dire disease.
The splendid deeds which only feck a name,
Are paid their just reward, in prefcnt fame,
But know—the awful all disclosing day,
The LONG ARREAR OR SECRET WORTH SHALL
PAY ;
Applauding faints shall hear with fond regard,
A^dJ^who witatfs'd bero—Jball there reward.

POWER OF RELIGION.
CARDINAL MAZARINE, firft Minister
of State in France, was conspicuous for
the greatness of his abilities, and his knowledge
of the world. He was reputed to be the most
profound statesman of his time, and gave great
proofs of it in the successes of the French crown,
under his ministry. . w
His aim was the grandeur of the world, to
which he made all other considerations submit :
but, poor man ! he was of another mind a
short time before his death ; for being awaken
ed by the smart lathes of confeience, which re
presented his foul's condition to be very mdif
mal, with astonishment and tears he cried out,
" O my poor foul ! what will become of thee!
Whither wilt thou go ?'
To the Queen Mother of France, who tame
to visit him, and who had been his friend at
court, he ekprcffed himfclf in these terms ; —
' Madam, your favours have undone me: were
I to live again, I would be a capuchin, rather
than a courtier.'
This fight so strongly affeded the
young prince, that he fell down lifelefs
and instantly expired of a broken heart.
The body of this affectionate son was
enclosed in the fame tomb, by the re
mains of his father. They were after
wards both carried to France, and de
posited in the chapel of St. Louis. The
sudden death of this young hero diffuf
ed sorrow over the whole army. His
unparalleled bravery was extolled by
all, and he was ft ill more admired for
the goodness of his heart, which ob
tained him the glorious appellation of
the HERO OF FILIAL AFFECTION.

THE, HERO OF FILIAL AFFECTION.
LOUIS DE BOURBON, Count
of Montpenfier, having entered
Italy with aFrench army, was extreme
ly impatient to go to Pouzzola, a small
town situated near Naples, solely from
a desire of visiting the tomb of his fath
er, the Duke of Bourbon, who died of
a wound in 1496.
RUSSIAN REGULATIONS.
Among other Jingular regulations of an af
fembl, at Peterfburgh, during the reign
of Peter the Great, the following are
curious.
" THE assembly shall not be open
sooner than four or five o'clock in the
afternoon, nor continue longer than to
at night. Every one shall be free to fit,
walk, or game as he pleases ; nor shall
any one attempt to hinder Him, or take
exceptions at what he does, under pain
of emptying th^ great eagle (a pint
bowl full of brandy;) a particular place
shall be assigned to the footmen. No
ladies are to get drunk on any pretence
whatever; nor shall gentlemen be drunk
before nine. Ladies who play at forfeits
or questions and commands, shall not
be noisy or riotous. No person shall
attempt to force a kiss, and no one shall
offer to strike a woman in the assembly,
under pain of future exclusion."
Sir Thomas Burnet was distinguished for
the evenness of his temper, of which the fol
lowing instance was recorded —Dining with a
friend, the coachman, who was waiting, fpilc
feme soup or gravy upon his clothes. While
they were rubbed, be said with great good hu
mor, to die coachman, “ Let me advise you,
friend, for the future, to grease nothing but
your wheels/'
REMARK.
That friendfhip which makes the least naife,
is often the most ufeful: and a prudent friend,
so generally of more ferricc than a zealous one.
