On the Independence o' America.
Written by the celebrated GEORGE BERKELY,
D. D. late Bijkop tf Cloyne, in Ireland.
THE muse disgusted at an age and cline,
Barren of every glorious theme,
In diGant lands now waits a better time,
Producing lubjects worthy fame:
In happy climes, where from the genial fun
And virgin earth such feenes entire,
The force of art by nature seems outdone,
And fancied beauties by the true :
In happy climes the feat of innocence,
XV here nature guides add virtue rules,
V here men shall not impofc for truth and sense,
The pedantry of Courts and fchcols:
There shall be sung another golden age,
The rife of empire and of arts,
The good and great inspiring epic rage,
The wisest heads and noblest hearts.
Not such as Europe breeds in her decay ;
Such as she bred when freih and young,
W ben heavenly flame did animate her clay,
By future poets shall be sung.
Westward the course of empire takes it way;
The foui firft a&s already pad,
A fifth shall close the drama with the day ;
Time's noblest offspring is the lad.

notice,
As there is an absolute necessity for tlofing the
eGate of Mr. Oliver Cromwell, deceased, the
fubfcribei gives this last notice to all persons in
debted to the Did estate, that he is now called on
by the creditors for a settlement of the debts due by
the said estate. As he w;fhes not to obligate him
felf, nor to take the unjust advantage which the
law allows for the recovery of old debts—he will
be under the disagreeable necessity of putting into
the hands or an attorney at law, all bonds, notes,
&c. that remain unsettled the 10th of December
next, without diftin&ion.
Thole peifons whose accounts remain unsettled
from the year 1775, are requeued to fettle as the
law dire&s (ifnot convenient for them to difeharge
the fame) —And those persons who have not yet
delivered in their accounts, are for the last time
requeued to bring them in properly attested.
