' . t i TO A HUMMINGBIRD.
Llghtwand’rer of the summer sky, ,
Whose glossy plumbs of. beauteous dyp
.To my charm’d sight in shades unfold
'' Each lucid tint besprent withigold,
Ob! loveliest of ,thp tribes of air,
To yonder od’rous shade repair;
For there the lilly spreads her charms,
And wooes thee.to her snowy arms;
And there the boney-suckle blows,'
And proudly spreads each rival rose,
Repose-the mingled blooms beneath,
And sounds of softest.musick breathe 5
Attention o’er each sense will steal;
Each nerve the tender strain shall feel
Of hapless love the tale shall tell,
And cvj'ry note in its fine swell,
To my fond heart thy-tale relate,
And mourn perhaps thy tiny mate, .
By treacherous human wiles ensnar’d,
And plac’d within the'wiry guard,
To prove of absence ev'ry pain,'
And of. lost liberty complain,;.
Pensive, yet sweet, the song must be
Of love and sad captivity.
Oh fly not! quit not yet my sight,
-Still rest thou little airy sprite 1
For stfre thou art of fairy kind,
And for their uses wert desin’d. ..
Oft host thou soothed with plaintive strain
Of Oberon the jealous pain,
Or near the fair Titania’s ear,
Charm’d to repose her ev’ry care
- The while-lie*-sportive elfin throngs,
Hung round enamour’d of the^song, . .
And when within their green retreat,
In mystick dance at'eve’s soft hour,
They press the turf with tiny feet,
Thou art the minstrel of their bow’r.

. Whereas the province of Fashion, belonging to our
royal demense, being invaded by our mortal enemies,
the Wantons, who have stormed the fdrt-of Modesty,
Slid trodden under foot the standard of Shame, have
erected on its ruins the banners of Impudence\ and
fearing our holy temple of Chastity, may be ratted to
the level of Lnudncss, and understanding the Gen.
Nakedness has broken his neutrality, and gone over
to the enemy, and that he has erected in many parts
of the country such enormous Breastworks as were
never before seen YVe command all Our forces to
parade immediately properly armed and accoutred,
with squibs, pasquinades, See. and to cut, fell, root
out and destroy Breastworks, and to annoy the ene
my as much'as'possible. Should that immodest ge
neral sound a retreat, we command our band called
the Bashfuls to pursuehim to capitulation, and that
he be banished to the-desart of darkness, and be kept
confined to the chamber of Matrimony..

The owner of such a horse may be assured of re
moVlhg'thi's grievance altogether by only carefully
pariug away the ragged part of the hoof down as

VALUABLE LAND FOR SALE.
THE Subscriber, intending to leave this State, wishes
. to dispose of the Land he at present resides on. It is
a tract of Eight Hundred Acres, beautifully situated
upon Cape Charles* having the Atlantick upon cme'side,
and tne Chesapeake nppn another. There is upon it as good a
f i sh F.ar as any in Virginia. There are interspersed through
out the plantation, a number oISalt Springs, so strongly
impregnated with salt as to boar a new-laid egg. Oysters
Cockles, and Fish of all kinds may be .obtained from the wa
ters immediately at the door. The land is very productive
esteemed annually good for 500 barrels Indian Corn, and
2000 bushels of Oats, and is now in capital order. The j
Fishery alone has yielded, in one spring, upwards of 7001
In short there are but very few Plantations oifered for Sale
which unite so many advantages: and nothing but a desire
to pursue his professional business could induce the present
proprietor to sell it. Should it not be sold before the Fall
it will be leased for a tesm of years. Coalitions will be made
known on application to
Thomas P~. Custis.
