ACer tain mechanic had * D appren

very familiar, and of whom he had
borrowed coppert, which he had of
ten been dunned for to no effeft.—
The boy at length proposed to him,
that,if he would let him strike at ma
ny blows on hit back, as there were
coppers due, he would difeharge the
debt; the matter readily agreed to
this proposal. The boy having, un
observed, secreted a stone in his fift,
gave him such a blow as almost broke
-his back , on,which his master turn
ed round in a paffioo, and exclaimed,
" Ah, you villain, you had a ftene in
your hand, so that fa? go for any
thing.”
A NEGRO man, who was remarka
bly furious & confcientiour, in alhort
time after he was married, discovered
he had been fatally fucceftful as well
as early io fomeof hit amorous in
terviews, for behold his wife was just
on the verge of motherhood. The
poor hufbind, (mitten with a woful
sense of his fin of commission, posted
to his minister as soon as possible, and
began his address to him with " O
dear maffa—me drefful wicked—me
want confeffioo." —Why Toby, said
