of the indigent. Fill ill the
places of trust and profit with
your national (objects., God
has committed their interests
to , our care : They called you
to the throne ;and gratitude
requires a return from you.
Reward thy faithful servants,
and attach them to you:
They will have a double tie
to serve you with fidelity—
' affection to my memory and
a fenie of their obligations to
you. And how my dear son,
I pray God to bless you, to
grant you a long reign, pros

With these words, dilat

But alas ! the good Marcus
Antonious was Succeeded by
Christian 11, one of the most
arbitrary princes that ever
reigned ; in a word, the
Nero of the North. The
Danes endured his tyranny as
long as human nature could
Support the outrages and
cruelties which he was per
petually committing. At
length, however, after ruling
them with a rod of iron for
about ten years, they recol
lected they were men: They
roused themselves, and drove
the tyrant from the throne.

A clergyman m she diocese
of Chester, riot yet 30 years
One of the most (hocking
outrages upon nature and hu
manity, was committed last
week, at Small-wood, in
Cheshire. A savage monster,
in the form of a man,without
apparent provocation, struck
down his own mother with a
(hovel, and, horrid to relate,
beat her brains out! The
matricide immediately jump
ed into a pit, from whence he
was soon rescued, but unluc
kily not timeenough to pre
serve him for a more public
and ignominious end, as he
died soon after.
SATURDAY morning a
bout two o'clock, a most
dreadful fire broke out, in a
house in blakely-ftreet,Man
chefter, which in a short time
reduced the lame to a skele
ton, and did considerable da
mage to several houses ad
joining. This unfortunate
accident is supposed to have
been occasioned by leaving
some clothes to dry before the
fire, as the family had been
finoothing the evening pre
seeding. It had got to iuch
an head, that the outside win
dow shutters were burning
before it was difeovered, and
being in the dead of night, it
was some time before the fa
mily were apprised of their
danger. We are Torry to re
late, that out of nine persons,
who inhabited the houfe,only
four were saved, viz. John
Stockton, the occupier., who
escaped out of the window
with two of his children,and
his wife's sister, who broke
her leg in effefting her elcape
in the fame manner. It was
some time before the bodis of
the fufferers were found, and
when difeovered, the young
child was at the breast of the
mother, and two others were
clinging round her neck.
After wandering ten years, he
attempted to regain it : But,
being defeated and taken, he
ended his detestable career in
prison, in the year 1559.

A singular paragraph lately
made its appearance in this
paper, refpe&ing an experi
ment performed by the Pro
feffor of Phyficjn Cambridge,
by the transfufion of blood
from two animals alternately
into each other, that is, the
blood of a dog into that of a
sheep, and the blood of the
sheep into the dog : the con
sequent effect we hear has
been very surprising, for the
sheep by this means, parta
king of the nature of the dog
has been obliged to be destroy
ed for worrying of lambs., and
the dog has since possessed so
timid a disposition; that upon
the least noise, he tucks his
tail between his legs, runs
away and hides himfelf.—-
We cannot, however, here
help remarking, that this dis
covery may be attended with
firigler benefit to the com
munity, for the injection of
fheeps blood into persons of
bilious or irrafcible habits, it
may probably cause them af
terwards to inherit the meek
neis of the lamb.
