HALL man, stern man, 'gainft Heaven's be-
1 with to inform my brethren of the Country
thro' the medium of the Oracle, that the month
of October is the best season to plant Peach
Stones for fruit-trees; let a piece of ground
be Rightly dug and cleared of weeds, then put
tb< peach Gone# about one foot distance and
but barely covered with earth; the next spring
they will appear above the ground and grow in
the course of the ensuing season two feet or
more: let them be transplanted the second
year irrto suitable ground about twelve feet dis
tance and the probable chance will be that they
hear fruit the third year, OtWer u.
Sweet Charity ! Thou sprite benign,
Who oft art seen, in Angel form,
To point the funbtam where to (hire,
Or rein the coursers of the dorm!
Oh ! Thro' yon dark and dripping cerl,
Where Sorrow's oulft offspring weep,
Elafb, as when Pet otters fell,
And bid the *Wo^!,Gillard tbem, sleep!
Warm'd by thy beams the froft, unkind,
Which blast sweet Woman's vernal years,
tn dew exhal'd (hall leave behind
Pure Gratitude's unfallied tears !
So (halt our Orphan Girls no more
Lament the untimely blight of woe ;
But rear'd to Virtue, thrice restore,
To generous Man the debt they owe.
Blest Providence ! Whose parent power
All being gives—for all provides !
Coequal, when it paints the flower,
As when it curbs old Ocean's tides !
See, lorn and piteous, at thy throne,
Love, Mercy, Hope, and Homage sue ; —
They weep for sorrow,, not their own,
They bend, dear Orphan Girl,, for you !
The Constable, desirous of proving the charge
against the Sailor,mounted the horfe,and began
to whip and spur ; the horse Sprung off, and ran
some distance before the Constable could flop
Aim. A crowd by this time had assembled a
round the magistrate's door. The constable re
turned, Jack ftept up and accosted him :—
D „my eyes, Mr Conflable, but you have gal
loped the berfe through the firect contrary to law, and
here are the vitneffee (pointing to those around
him,) who will prone the fad, and I infyl on your
paying the fine. The magistrate was compelled to
fulfil his duty, and the poor constable was fined.

A laborer had procured himfelf a
mew coat,which he displayed with some
degree of fatisfa&ion on a holiday
morning. One of his comrades pb
ferved that the coat was too ihort.
" That may be," said the owner, “ but
it will be long enough before I shall get
another." A gentlemen heard it, and
being pleased with the wit of the reply,
undertook to tell it to a large compa
ny the ensuing evening ; prefacing it,
as is usual with story tellers,with many
encomiums on wit. But in telling it,
instead of making the owner fay it
would be long enough before he obtain
ed another, he made him fay, “ it will
be along time before I shall get ano
ther." The poor dory-teller perceived
that the jell had escaped, butcould not
tell how ; all the way he had to come
off, was, by faying it was agood flory
when he heard it.
THE tempest of the foul, like that of the
elements, can endure but for a season.—
Time smooths the furrows of misfortune , for
hope, divested of a darling objed, like a bird de
prived of one friendly spray, flies to another ;
anil looks forward to new fourccs of enjoyment.
Happy temperament of human nature! that.like
the yielding ft ^k, bends to the rough blast of
Diisfortune, and again resumes its wonted Ra
tion, prepared for new incidents, to complete
the varied checquered feene. So true are the
words of inspiration “ Sorrow may continue for
a night, but joy cometh in the morning.' 1
heft,
His cold, unfeeling pride oppose :
To thankless Wealth, unlock his bread,
Yet freeze his heart to Orphan's woes?
Weak Casuist ! where yon thunder broke,
Seed how the livid lightning glares !
Behold, it rives the Knotted Oak,
But dill the bumble Myrtle (pares,
Let stoic Valor boldly brave
The wars and elements of life ;
But, more like Heaven, who stoops to fare
A being finking in the Strife;
Poor Exiles! Wandering o'er this sphere,
Thro' feenes of which you form no part ;
Lov'd Orphan Girls ! Come, welcome, here,
Th' Asylum ofthe human heart.
* Merciful Heaven !

Split'jl the unwedgeabte, and gnarled Oaf

Few days ago a Sailor was taken up in
Southwark, by a Constable, for galloping thro*
one of the streets, in violation of an ordi
nance passed by the Commissioners. When
brought before 'Squire he insisted that
the charge made by the Constable was falfe ;
that his horse could not gallop. The Constable
had no evidence to prove the fa&. The Sailor
proposed to him to mount the horse, and con
vince himfelf of the truth of what he had affect

" In an age in which the principles of
morality are relaxed, and the wildtft tad
most dangerous patlions inflamed, by the
immoral publications of the New School,
the public are greatly indebted to those,
who undertake to oppif the torrent of
innovation, and vindicate the morals of
our anctfiors and the doctrines of our
religion. Publications, directed to youth,
warning them of the dangers to which
they are exposed, are peculiarly uleful.
Mrs Weft, has been eminently diffin'
guifhed for her exertions in this rcfpe&.
Her novels are much celebrated ; they
have palled through many editions in
England ; contain pure morality, and
exhibit great knowledge of the world. —
Her addrels to her son is one of the belt
books that can be put into the hands of
the young men of this age. It is an ex &
cellent antidote to the poisonous publi
cations, with which modern presses teem'
It exhibits a .yflem of principles, which,
if adopted, will condud to refpeaability
and happiness. It explodes the new
maxims of morality, and demouftratts
their absurdity. It marks the several in
fiances of the progressive depravity of
manners, which have imperceptibly cor
rupted the minds of youth, and affords
an excellent remedy against their influ
ence. No parent, who has a fin, in
whole welfare he is interefled, co Guar,
dian, who has a ward, whom he does not
with corrupted, fhotild fail to place this
excellent book in their hands. In it, in
ftruaion and amuf ment are blended;
and its lessons are wholesome, and well
calculated to render the heart amiable &
the life upright of thofe,w ho peruse them.'
