Address to Fortune.
0, Fortune ! thau'rt a fickle jade ;
None can on thee depend !
For tho' thou smile, and look serene,
There's few can call thee friend.
Just as we think we've gain'd our point,
And brought thee to our wishes;
Thou turn'd thy heel, and whip goes all,
The table, plates and diflies.
Then get thee gone, thou fancy jade,
I hate thee molt sincerely;
And those who do on thee depend,
Will rue it most severely.
JUVENIS.

REPUBLICAN GLEE.
[With my jugin one hand]
WAILE the tools of the date, and the fools of
ambition # - 7
Roll down jn corruption's foul tide.
We scorn all their arts, and that vile imposition,
Not all their dry logic cam hide :
Let us, like true freemen, ne'er (brink from our
cause,
But still hope that the times will grow mellow,
When the minion of pow'r (hail be curb,'d by the
/ laws,
While oppressing the true honest fellow.
Let's be true to ourselves; let's be firm to our
party,
The friends of good order and law ;
But bold to defend with a zeal warm and hearty,
Those Rights which from nature we draw.
Too haughty for flav'ry, too proud for a bribe,
Our Rights let us vow to defend,
Nor (brink at the threats ot abase venal tribe,
Whose power is near at an end.
^oralffl,
WHAT is he who feels for t?e Offering of
mankind ? he is beloved among the children of
affliction,and he is the favorite of sensibility. But
bow much greater is he who relieves the misery
he beholds an feells for, who offers up in secret
the tenth of his possessions on the alter .of charity
and devotes his health, his fortune, and his life to
the service of the oprefled who looks tip with con
fidence to Heaven to assist and forward the good
intentions of his heart, and therefore never tum
bles in the snare of the wicked, who seeks to turn
him from the right way—whose perseverance is as
great as his virtue and whole patience is equal to
his zeal. He resembles him whole redemption
was glorious—How adorable, holv unequalled is
this character ; how rarely scattered among the
lavage lons of men.
. AN honeftfchool matter near London, having
a wife whom he loved very effeftionately, was so
unfortunate as to perceive that she conceived a
tender for a smart young fellow whom he engag
ed as usher. The poor man was rendered so mis
erable, by the perfidy and ingratitude of his rib,
that he determined to destroy himfelf—This reso
lution, after some prefatory reproaches, he corn
municated-to his wife, declaring that he would
that moment tuck himfelfup with bis neckcloath.
To this the afflicted lady replied' " Alas ! my
dear, confider that neckcloth is very old, and can
never sustain your weigth. Do flop a moment,
my love, till I reach you your new cravat."
A Prating woman, who was young and healthy
asked a physician the reason of her losing her
teeth : I can't tell any other reason, (fays he) but
that your tongue grates much against them.
