Curious Marriages.
A gentlemanjt the Eastward had fire daugh
ters, all of whom he brought up in such man
ner as was proper to render them ufeful and re
fpedable charaders in life. These daughters,
as they came to years, married, one after ano
ther, with the approbation of their father.—
One of them married a gentleman of the name
of Poor-another one married a Mr. LittLß
—the third married a gentleman of the name
of Short— the fourth married Mr. Brown,
and the fifth married a Mr. Hogg.—— At the
wedding of the latter, her filters, with their
hatbands, were present. After the ceremonies
of the wedding were over, as social conversation
ensued, the gentleman made this remark to bis
gueftsr I have taken great pains, (said he)
to educate my five daugters in a suitable man
ner, that they might „ well their part in life ;
and, from their advantages and improvements,
1 fondly expe&ed that the, would form connec
tions that would do honor to my family : But,
having now no more daughters to marry, I find
that all my pains, care, and fond expectations,
In the result, have turned out nothing but Poor,
Little Short, Brram, Hog !”
Extreme Ingenuity.
In the year 1578, and the 20th of Elizabeth,
Mark Lealliot, a blackftnitb, made a lock ton
lifting of 1I pieces of iron, feel and bra&, with
a hollowfay to it, that altogether weighed but
one grain of gold. He likewise made a gold
chain, composed of 43 links, which he fattened
to the lock and key, and havidg put it about
the neck of a flea, that little creature drew them
all With safe ; which being done in her Mejef
ty's presence, he put the lock and key, flea and
chain, into a pair of scales, and they all togeth
er weighed but a grain and a half. [Twang!

Thou only good, unmix'd,, to mortals known ;
