THE daughter of a Barrister. at the death of
her father, found herfelf in poflelSoo of a final!
competence. She was tenderly attached to a feeble
mother who led a retired life, yet her own excell
encies gave her an enlarged circle ofacquaintance,
but when (he appeared in family or private par
ties, unhappily she was too much diflinguifhed.
The other females were neglected,and in piopor
lion as the men admired, the ladles of course
hated. They lifted her conduct for a pretext to
have her abandoned, but in vain. A maiden of
fortune, who from her riches was allowed to give
the ton to the opinions of her acquaintance, de
clared that Miss * **** was a very dangerous
woman ; the word hit : tiiey fever-ally pronoun
ced with a shake of the head in all their parties,that
Inch a one, although very elegant and very engag
ing, was adangerous woman. The girls said this
to their brothers, and the wives to their husbands;
and they only spoke truth, for when she was pre
fect they were all in danger of being overlooked.
Cooluefs loon turned to eflrangement, and this
poor creature found at three and twenty, eveiy
door flint againtt her. A female friend to soothe
her unealinel's, told her the cause—“ You are
believed to be a. dangerous woman."—The word
was adeath stroke to her heart ; what could she do
to pary.it ? It implied every thing,without fpecify
ing any thing. Had they imparted any vice to her,
the whole tenor of her life would have been its
refutation. Sinking under the blow, she pined in
fee ret, and her constitution was undermined—
had she made the just traoflation of this invidious
woid, she had been less bitterly attested—for when
they called her dangerous, they only meant she
was attractive. Her wretched nroiherby-the ad
vice of a physician carried her to Bath. Change of
objects and amusement, raftored her spirits, her
health and her charms—but that she might not lose
her reputation of being dangerous, a man of affl
uent fortune declared himfelf in danger of losing
his peace on her account. She withdrew the re
serve that had chilled him ; marriage followed,
and this dangerous woman now moves in a circle
far above that from which she was chafed.

MAXIMS.
IN the choice of a wife take the daughter of a
good mother. If thou haft wit and learning, get
wfiom and modesty to them. Trutt not him that
Jeenu a faint. Never provoke the fury of bigots, by
exposing their sentiments. Never enter ioto hot
ditputc) concerning points of religion or Rate af
fatra. Measure not men by Sundays, without re
garding what they do all the week after.
I advise thee to visit thy relations and friends ;
but I also advise thee not to live too near them.
Let the society thou frequented be like a com
pany of bees gathered together, to make honey ;
and not of wasps which do nothing but hum, dev
our, and Ring.
la thy judgment & edeem of men constantly
prefer the good temper of their minds, and hou
etty of their action, above all the excellencies us
their eloquence or knowledge.
A SAILOR crossing Blackheath, in England
one evening, was flopped by a footpad,who dema
nded his money, when a Scuffle rofued, the tar
took the robber who meeting some people, they
persuaded him to bear his prize to the justice of
the peace at Woolwich, which the far did; and
when the wag,iflrate came to examine into the
assault, said, he mult take his oath, that he put
him in bodily fear, otherwise he culd not com
mit the man. The Sailor, looking ItedfzQly on
the Justice, “ He ! d-—^ him ! he put me id bo
dily fear 1 No, nor any he that yet lived; therefo
re, if that is to be the case, you may let him go,
for d a me if I swear to such a lie.
