Dr. Rees's new Cyclopædia
JUST received from Philadelphia, at the Book-Store of C. PIERCE, Daniel-street, Vol. I. part 1. of the NEW CYCLOPEDIA, Or Universal Dictionary of the Arts and Sciences. To be completed in 30 volumes quarto—formed upon a more enlarged plan of arrangement, than the dictionary of Mr. Chambers—Comprehending the various articles of that work, with additions and improvements, together with new subjects of Biography, and history, and adapted to the present improved state of Literature and Science. By ABRAHAM REES, D. D. F. R. S. Editor of the late edition of Chamber's Dictionary—with the assistance of eminent professional gentlemen. Illustrated with new plates, including maps, engraved for the work, by some of the most distinguished artists. The whole improved and adapted to this country by gentlemen of known abilities, by whose aid it will be rendered the most complete work of the kind that has yet appeared. Nothing can better prove the high estimation in which this work is held in Great Britain, than the fact, that although the publishers of the English edition threw off in the first instance five thousand copies, the increasing celebrity of the book rendered that number inadequate to the demand, and the early volumes, have already been reprinted. In undertaking the present edition, the American publisher was sensible that his chief aim should be to render it, at least, equal to the London copy, the general execution of which is allowed to be superior to every work of the kind. To this end have all his efforts been directed; and, although the specimen now offered to the public, will suffer nothing by a general comparison with the London copy, he still hopes to render the succeeding volumes superior, and thinks himself warranted in asserting (and he challenges investigation,) that the American edition far surpasses the English, in paper, printing and correctness. Most of the engravings are allowed by complete judges, to be quite equal to the originals, and all superior to any before executed in this country. In order to give the early patrons of this work a decided advantage over future purchasers, each half volume is furnished to them at the low price of three dollars. To all those who may subscribe after the 1st of November next, the price will be raised to three dollars and a half; and, after the fifth volume is published, none will be sold under four dollars. June 10.
CHADWICK'S Store Spring-Hill, an additional and extensive assortment of GROCERIES, by wholesale or retail as cheap as can be purchased at any store in town, for cash or approved credit—Among which are A few pipes French Brandy; Hollands Gin; Rum.

THE subscribers being appointed commissioners, by the judge of Probate for the county of Rockingham, to receive, examine, and adjust the claims of creditors to the estate of HUBBARD CARTER GALE, late of Concord in said county, Cabinet maker, deceased, represented insolvent; hereby give notice, that they will attend on the duties of their appointment, at the house of Benjamin Gale, inn-keeper in said Concord, on the third Wednesdays of the six succeeding months, from two to six o'clock, P.M.

POLITICAL.
FROM THE TRENTON TRUE AMERICAN.
A Crumb for Monarchists.
The NEW TAXES to be laid in Great-Britain the present year, agreeably to a statement submitted to Parliament amount to seven millions one hundred and thirty six thousand pounds sterling! upwards of thirty millions of dollars!
It would seem by the additional burdens every year imposed upon the oppressed and impoverished people of that unfortunate nation, that their government (like the man who, because he could carry his calf day after day without feeling the additional weight, imagined he could continue to carry it daily until it should become an Ox ) believe that the people can bear any load they may please to lay on, and are disposed to make the experiment how much they can exist under. We cannot, however, believe, that the People of Britain can much longer bear up under the rapid accumulation of poverty, taxation and misery.
Ungrateful must be the wretch who can think of the peculiar blessing with which we are surrounded, without a heart full of thankfulness to "the Giver of every good and perfect gift," for his unbounded munificence towards us.—Unworthy of breathing a freeman, must he be, who would barter our peace and prosperity, our freedom and happiness, for that iniquitous system of Government which has dragged those highly-favored countries which compose the British empire to the depth of wretchedness, degradation and despondence—to the brink of bankruptcy and starvation!
Let that man forever be distrusted who to bring Republicanism into contempt, prates about the paltry inconveniences and disadvantages which attend Republican Governments—their want of energy, liability to faction, &c. All the evils we have ever experienced or have a ground to anticipate from our system, are blessings compared with the best fruits of Monarchy.—Britain is boasted of by Royalists as the happiest nation in the old world; and in Britain COBETT declares that "all the laborers having families are paupers"—and that "a man with a wife and four small children cannot, out of his labor, possibly provide them and himself with the means of living." He does not mean, he says, that they cannot live comfortably, for, to comfort, such men have long ago bid farewell; but (he continues) I assert, and am ready to prove, that he cannot provide them, without parish aid with a sufficiency of food not to satisfy their cravings but to sustain life."
What a picture is here of the most powerful, free and happy monarchy in the world!!!—And instead of lightening the enormous load under which the nation is groaning—more than thirty millions of dollars a-year of new taxes are just imposed!
May the people of America so estimate and improve the invaluable and innumerable blessings they enjoy, that a kind Providence may not, in punishment for an ungrateful use of his distinguishing favors, give them over to hardness of heart and blindness of eyes, and permit them to bring upon themselves that greatest of all earthly curses—a Monarchy! —or a government administered upon monarchical principles.
From the Litchfield (Conn) Witness.
BRITISH FEDERALISM.
FOURTH of JUNE is the anniversary of the birth day of that most redoubtable King George III. Let federalists rejoice that he yet lives to bless his people with stamp and land taxes, perpetual wars and eternal debt. If such kings were not preferred, the industrious mechanic or farmer might acquire wealth enough to live in competence and to be too proud for the nobles; poor men might live comfortably instead of being mowed down by thousands in the field of battle.
In every year we read with what increased splendor and joy this day is celebrated. In every year during almost half a century each celebration has far transcended all which had preceded, and in a few weeks we shall hear again that this day has been more illustrious than all before it.
This great king has, in the lucid intervals of his reign, devolved on America the cares of self government. After weaning us from the teats of the British lions, he has relinquished all nursing care of us. He has devolved on Bonaparte the care of governing most of the kingdoms on the continent; his friendship has caused every nation to which it has been extended, and his enmity has been a sure guarantee of national glory. With what exultation ought every Briton and every federalist to hail the natal day of such a king. Private citizens are estimated according to the good which they do, but kings can never be completely idolized, unless they scatter firebrands, arrows and death all about them.
If federalism had continued to prevail in this country, the fourth of July would have been superceded by a festival in honor of the birth of Adams or Hamilton or some equally pious defender of the faith: every year would have led up some new and extraordinary feats of homage, and whenever his American majesty had succeeded to excite the just indignation of all nations, whenever he had exhausted our treasury to bribe foreign nations into non-existence or val-
lage, whenever he had ennobled every indolent well born man and all his sons and sons in law; whenever he had corrupted the clergy, whenever he had filled the country with soldiers and covered the ocean with ships; and involved us in an endless debt, there would be a proper season for an universal federal jubilee in honor of a birth day. The course of federalism is the same in all countries; it seeks to keep the power among the rich and well-born, and to sink the common people; it sacrifices agriculture and mechanic arts to great national schemes, glorious to the nobles ruinous to the people; it is never easy till power is concentrated in one man; it never cordially rejoices in him till he has filled up the measure of his iniquity, and till he has sunk the body of the people to the dust beneath the feet of their masters.

ELECTION LAW.
The House proceeded in the further consideration of the bill regulating elections. This act recognizes, a right in the inhabitants of plantations to vote for Governor and Lt. Governor.
A motion was made to expunge what related to Plantations.
Mr. M'FARLAND, contended that the privilege recognized had been exercised ever since the adoption of the constitution.
Mr. BIGLOW stated, that he had ascertained by research, that the privilege had never been exercised prior to 1792.
The motion to expunge was negatived.
The bill provides that the returns of votes for Governor and Lt. Gov. shall not be opened till the meeting of the Legislature; that the returns of votes for Senators shall not be opened till the meeting of the Council; that the Secretary shall procure to be printed 5000 black returns, and distribute 5 to each town; that Selectmen shall be sworn; that every Selectman and Town Clerk, who shall wickedly and corruptly make a false return, &c. shall be liable to a fine not exceeding 500 dollars, or imprisonment not exceeding 3 months, and to be disqualified from holding the office of selectman or town Clerk for 6 years.
[After a lengthy discussion, the bill was ordered to a third reading, and committed to Messrs. Story, Bangs, and Whitman.]
THURSDAY, JUNE 19.
The bill for establishing PERMANENT SALARIES for the Judges of the Supreme Judicial Court, passed to be engrossed.
[This bill provides a salary of 2500 dollars per annum for the Chief Justice; and 2400 dollars for the Associate Judges. The debates on the passage of this bill were able and eloquent. The bill was supported by Judge Livermore, Mr. Story, Mr. Whitman, Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Bridge, Dn. Goodwin, and others; and opposed by Mr. Slocum, Mr. Hobart, Mr. M'Farland, Mr. Adams, and others who moved the reference to the next session of the General Court.—This was negatived; and the bill was passed by a very handsome majority. It has since passed the Senate, to be engrossed.]
The two Houses met in Convention, and qualified the Hon. Levi Lincoln, as Counsellor to advise the Governor in the Executive part of Government.
An order passed both Houses, directing the clerks of the Senate and House of Representatives to engage Adams and Rhoades to do the printing for the General Court for one year from the first day of July next.

From a New-York paper of June 14.
We have been favored by a respectable merchant of this city, with the following letter, received at Liverpool from Elsinore.
"Elsinore, April 12, 1806. "We take the liberty to advise you, that under date of the 22d ult. An ordinance was passed, directing, that unless American ships, as well as others from America, were provided with bills of health from that country, signed, either by the Danish, Russian, Prussian or Swedish Consul, that they would be subject to quarantine; and also that they may have delivered in Europe, yet it is expected that they should bring with them such American bill of health. However, in case of their not having such bill of health, they ought to provide themselves with one from the last port of discharge, attested, either by the Danish or Russian Consul. We had, yesterday, an American from Lisbon, who, for want of such a bill, met with difficulty."
New-Hampshire Legislature.
The following answer of the Senate to his Excellency's Communication, was reported by Messrs. Bradley and Alcock, and accepted.
ANSWER OF THE SENATE.
May it please your Excellency,
WE congratulate your Excellency on the renewed testimony of respect expressed by your fellow-citizens, in your re-election to the Chief Magistracy of this State. The unanimity which has prevailed on this occasion, highly expresses the approbation of your fellow-citizens of those measures heretofore pursued, while it denotes that union in sentiment, essential to the welfare of a Republican Government.
While the nations of Europe are contending for dominion, both by sea and land, it is hardly to be expected our citizens should escape injury and insult—but such have been the aggression of some nations, as must have involved us in war, had not the prudence and wisdom of our Rulers, under the auspices of a kind Providence, averted the evil; and we sincerely lament, that any should still retain those prejudices, imbibed from the repeated but false insinuations of men, completely lost to all principles of honour—trusting however, that the prudence, justice and talents of the present Administration of our National Government will finally overcome the prejudices of every honest citizen throughout the Union.
We are fully sensible that great pecuniary advantages would be derived to the State, from the holding but one Session of the General Court the present year, and should this consist with the public good and the justice due to individuals, we shall readily acquiesce in the measure. Whenever the period shall arrive when our Constitution shall undergo a revision, we doubt not such arrangements will be made as to render but one Session in future necessary.
A well disciplined Militia is not only the surest defence of a Nation, but prevents those insults, oftentimes invited by an inability to defend—it is therefore the duty as well as policy of Governments to cherish all measures tending to promote the prosperity of the Militia, and to lend such aid, as shall effect the design of their formation.
The great inconveniences resulting to the Departments of State and our fellow-citizens from the want of permanency in the seat of Government, have been too often felt to need comment; but we hope and confidently expect, that the time is not far distant, when all those difficulties will be obviated, by rendering it stable, and thereby affording greater security to the public records, and facilitate the necessary intercourse between the different offices, and the public in general.
The information your Excellency has been pleased to communicate, touching the choice of a Senator to Congress, to fill the vacancy that will take place on the fourth of March next, will be duly attended to the present session.
These and all other measures which may embrace the public good, will receive our due attention and co-operation with your Excellency.
In the House of Representatives the Governor's Communication was committed to Messrs. Evans, Wilson and Upham, who reported the following answer, which was accepted and presented.
ANSWER OF THE HOUSE.
May it please your Excellency,
THE House of Representatives is gratified in your acceptance of the high office, to which you are again elected by the free suffrage of the people of New-Hampshire.
We rejoice with you that a collision of parties is no longer felt in the State—that a measure of harmony is restored—and that a fair prospect is before us, which promises concord and happiness.
As the State of New-Hampshire is a member of a great nation, so we, the Representatives of its Citizens, possess an interest in the national concerns; we have viewed with solicitude, and with indignation, the predatory attempts, which have been made on our rights, by the subjects of some European nations—which attempts, in some instances, have been sanctioned by European governments. We at the same time have contemplated the measures of our own national Administration, and have felt, and we still continue to feel, in its virtue, and in its wisdom an unflinching confidence.
Europe exhibits important events. The scourge of war having troubled her nations, her empires and her states are assuming new forms, and their political relations are changed. In witnessing the evils with which Europe has been afflicted, the people of the United States cannot be unmindful of that Divine Providence, which has so eminently preserved them from nation-
al as well as from individual calamities.
The concerns of our own State will particularly engage our attention; the legislative business, which was left unfinished, will now command our early deliberations, and every other affair, which may be brought into view, shall be duly considered.
We have witnessed the improvement, which has been made in our Militia arrangements and discipline; and we attribute this improvement to the particular attention, which your Excellency has paid to that object. We will co-operate with you in those measures, which are necessary to carry into effect the purposes of so very important an establishment.
A revision of the Constitution may be salutary; and when the period arrives, at which the general sentiment of the people is to be expressed on that subject, we may hope that experience will point out every necessary amendment.
We unite with you in opinion, that the establishment of a permanent seat of government would be productive of convenience and accompanied with many advantages.
The various subjects, which are comprised in your Excellency's communication, will be deemed important, and we shall combine our best exertions with those of your Excellency to promote the prosperity of our country.

"Our Wheat never looked so promising since my recollection till about ten days ago, a worm appeared in it, and are in such quantities that they have trimmed off the blades and are now eating the heads—and in short they leave little of any thing green standing but red Clover, which they do not trouble. We have to ditch around our Cornfields to keep them off." Phil. pap.
A gentleman informed us this morning, that the same destructive species of Caterpillar, as that which committed such ravages to the southward, has made its appearance, in countless numbers, on the Elk-Ridge, in a field of wheat belonging to him. He is of opinion, that if they attack the stalk or head of the wheat, with the same rapacity they have the blade, that out of 600 bushels which he had a prospect of gathering, he will not be able to cut a single bushel. They have also made their appearance in other neighbouring fields, but the extent of the actual or probable mischief, is not yet ascertained.
We saw and discoursed with two gentlemen last evening from the Eastern shore, who gave us the most distressing account of the ravages committed upon the young wheat, corn, "and every other green thing," common white clover excepted, by a species of the caterpillar, whose numbers are numberless, and whose depredations are incalculable. The industrious farmer beholds the labours of the season rendered, in many instances, abortive by the events of a single night. ( Balt. Evening Post. )
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at Philadelphia, (arrived from Antwerp 14th May) to his friend in this town, giving the following particulars of the loss of the ship Pandora , of Boston.
"The ship Pandora , Capt. Grafton sailed from Nantasket Roads, the 16th November last, for the Cape of Good Hope, and the Isle of France; on the 20th Nov. in lat. 37, N. being under close reefed topsails, with the wind at S. W.—she was upset about 1 o'clock, in the afternoon, in a squall. Capt. Grafton was below with a Mr. Cochran his clerk, and Mr. Thomas Surgis, of Boston, passenger; in gaining the deck, Capt. G. broke his arm in the companion way. The boat over the stern was dashed to pieces by the sea, the long boat was also stove to pieces; a small boat that was flown on the long boat, they got out. The captain, 1st and 2d officers, with 3 seamen, got into her, took a live pig, and made fast under the lee of the wreck, with an intention of laying by—the remainder of the people, with Mr. Cochran and Surgis, lashed themselves to the weather rigging, (the ship lying on her beam ends) except one man, perished below, who could not get out of the forcible before she was over. In this dreadful situation they lay all night, the sea making a breach over her the whole time; about 4 in the morning, they missed the boat—at day light, there were only 3 alive—the passengers were washed away and some of the people, no boat in sight and impossible for a boat to live, the sea so high, and as she had no oars, they could not keep head to the sea. The three people kept themselves fast, and the gale continued all that day, the next day it was more moderate; they found two or three biscuit had washed out of the cabin, which kept them alive—The 5th day the ship Venus , of New York, from Philad. discovered them, got a boat out, boarded the wreck, and unlashed them, they being almost dead—carried them along side, and hauled them on board. They got a considerable quantity of fine cloths, a cask of wine and I do not know how much more, though the captain says he got no-
thing. The Steward, (that was saved) discovered them where there were two kegs of specie, in the Captain's state room—they cut a hole through the quarter deck, but said they could not find it, and quit the wreck—they carried the people to Antwerp , where I saw them—one went in the Venus , and another by the name of Young , of Providence , (quite a young man) in the Rebecca , for Philad. and the Steward, Jackson , in the Ariel , of Norfolk ."

On Friday last the Hon. General Court of this State finished their business and session for this year, and voted to convene again in Hopkinton at their next election in June, 1807.

It is with pleasure we announce the return of his Excellency Governor LANGDON, to his seat in this town.—On Saturday morning last, it being generally understood that his Excellency was to dine at Durham, and proceed to this town in the afternoon, Capt. Dearborn of Greenland ordered out his Cavalry of Horse, which, with a number of gentlemen in Carriages and on horse back from this town, escorted his Excellency to his seat, where they were treated with every mark of attention, worthy the Chief Magistrate of a free people. We cannot stop here, as we noticed with singular pleasure, the pleasing mark of respect shown his Excellency by the polite company of young masters in this town, under the orders of Nath'l White, jr. which paraded before the door of his Excellency, changed their front, opened to the right and left, and presented arms until his Excellency and suit entered the house. Attention, commendation and praise excited by this company, from a multitude of spectators, passes the powers of language to describe, we must therefore pause, and admire in silence their great proficiency.
The third Infantry Company commanded by Capt. Benjamin Adams, paraded on Saturday last, we are happy to observe the great improvement made by the military of this town in the short space of one year.
Many enquiries and conjectures have been made as to the author of the pamphlet written in England in defence of neutral rights, particularly as they regard the relations between England and the United States. Some have even intimated that it is the production of a pen under the influence of Mr. Monroe, our Minister at London; and of course are unwilling to admit that its doctrines and opinions can in any manner be considered as a criterion of the disposition and views of the New British Cabinet towards this country. We are extremely happy in being able to assure our readers, and the American public generally, that the author of this work is no less a personage than Lord HOLLAND, nephew of Mr. Fox; and that it has been issued in England, with the view of preparing the public mind for the reception of certain liberal stipulations between that government and America, in which some important and advantageous principles will be conceded to us.
In our estimation of this article, we conceive it the most important intelligence that could be announced. Its authenticity is indisputable. [Phil. Gazette.]
So long from various causes have the representations of affairs in Europe been partial, that few things can be deserving of credit respecting negotiations and the intentions of the respective courts, till we are possessed of official documents and evident facts. According to the last English accounts, affairs were proceeding fast towards a rupture on the continent. The Russians had already taken an active part against the French on the Adriatic, and Sweden had determined to maintain for England a part of Hanover. The French had determined Prussia against the neutrality of Denmark, and Austria contemplated to renew the war with France, from the plea of French measures since the last treaty. On the other hand, it is said, that Sweden is not content with the part its sovereign has taken; that Denmark still maintained its neutrality uninterruptedly by the Continental powers; that Russia had consented to the measures of the French, in Dalmatia, and that the Russians had made no resistance by the troops which they command in that quarter. [Salem Register.]
We have an account from St. Domingo that the blacks had committed late massacres of the whites in that part of the island they possessed. And we have this account through the same papers which have lately blamed the United States for interrupting a commerce with these murderers. How are we to understand this? Did they wish us to send our citizens to be destroyed? We expect then that the politic measures adopted by us and other neutral nations, will be found to be amply justified, even, by this event, and that while the cry of murder is in our ears, we shall not be challenged to supply the murderers. Let us be consistent. What should we not have heard, had our government persisted in commerce with these blacks against the consent of nations? We should then have heard worse stories than ever have been told by the vilest incendiaries of the United States. We may at least concede, that it has turned out well for the United States, that we are in our present relations, and it has turned out as well in every thing else under the present administration. ibid.
The Caterpillars have nearly destroyed the Crops of corn and oats in some counties in Virginia.
FIRES. A small house, at Avery's Gore, N. H. was consumed by fire on the 27th ult. and three black children, who were in it perished.
On the 5th inst. at Alstead, N. H. a valuable paper mill, belonging to Messrs. Webster Cole and Philip Brown, was destroyed by fire.
THE ECLIPSE, on Monday the 10th inst. was the most striking and impressive phenomenon, which the present generation of Man has witnessed.—The regular passage of the moon over the face of the sun, its total concealment of that luminary, when day was converted into night, and darkness succeeded to the blaze of noon, the gradual reappearance of the sun to his brightest splendor, all displayed one scene eloquently and sublimely majestic. At the period of total obscurity, what mind was not elevated? whose feelings were not affected? It seemed as an awful pause in creation. The soul was wrapt in contemplation. The still and solemn silence of the moment inspired the soothing melancholy of submissive devotion. What infidel then doubted, what caustic then reasoned! Could chance have so directed, or atoms thus combined. No—surely,
"That there is a GOD, all nature cries aloud Through all her works!" [Nat. Egis.]
EARTHQUAKES! —A letter from Augusta, (Me.) dated 14th inst. lays, "A considerable shock of an earthquake was felt in this, and the neighboring towns, on Thursday last!—It is said to have been felt thirty miles from this place."

Miscellaneous Repository. FROM THE ANTHOLOGY.  WRITTEN AT SUNSET.  With the tears which evening weeps, The closing flower conceals her breath, Secures the vernal warbler sleeps, The voice of love and joy suppress.  Ere long shall night assume her sway, Reposing nature on her arm, Blot the last purple flush of day, Dissolve the twilight's lingering charm.  And thus the transient joys of life Fade on Attention's sober eye, Till vest no more with various frise Man learns to slumber or to die. † And learn with equal ease, to sleep or die.  Mason.
THE FLOWER GIRL. "PRAY buy a nosegay of a poor orphan!" said a female voice, in a plaintive and melodious tone, as I was passing the corner of the hay-market. I turned hastily, and beheld a girl about fourteen, whose drapery, though ragged was clean, and whose form was such as a painter might have chosen for a youthful Venus. Her neck without colouring, white as snow; and her features, though not regularly beautiful, were interesting, and set off by a transparent complexion; her eyes, dark and intelligent, were shaded by loose ringlets of a raven black, and poured their sweetly supplicating beams through the silken shade of very long lashes. On one arm hung a basket full of roses, and the other was stretched out towards me with one of the rosebuds. I put my hand into my pocket, and drew out some silver, "Take this, my pretty girl," said I, "and may that God, who is the father of the fatherless, be the preserver of your existence and your virtue!—Virtuous poverty is no crime."
I was turning from her when she caught my withdrawn hand; and putting it to her lips, burst into a flood of tears.—The actions and the look which accompanied it, touched my soul; it melted to the ardent gratitude of this poor Flower Girl, and a drop of sympathy fell from my cheek, "Forgive me Sir," said she recovering from her transport, while a sweet blush diffused itself over her lovely face—"my heart was full of what it could not express—nature impelled me to so bold an action.—You will pardon me, when I tell you, they were the first kind words I have heard since I lost all that was dear to me on earth!"—A sob interrupted her discourse: she stopped, and wept silently: then raising up her face from the hand on which she had laid it, "O, Sir, I have no father! no mother! no relation! Alas, I have no friend in the world!" Choaked with her emotions, she was silent for a moment before she could proceed. "My only friend is God! on him I rely; I submit to his will. I only pray that I may support with fortitude the miseries I am born to experience! To Him, kind Sir, this heart shall always pray for you! I added she, dropping a courtesy, full of humanity and native grace, as she retired. I returned her benediction, and went on.
"And can I thus leave this poor creature?" said I as I walked pensively on.—"Can I leave her forever, without emotion? What have I done for her, that can entitle me to her prayers? Preserved her a few days from death, but that is all?—And shall I quit thee fair flower, to see thee no more? to be blown down by the rude blast of adversity! to be cropped by some cruel spoiler! to droop thy lovely head beneath the blight of early sorrow? No!—thou hast been reared on some happier bank; thou hast been nurtured by the sweet tears of maternal affection; thou hast once blushed beneath the cheering sun of domestic content, and under it thou shalt bloom again! I turned as I spoke; my heart beat with its sweet purpose. I saw the beautiful flower girl before me. I approached, caught her hand, the words of triumphant virtue burst from my lips.
"Come, thou lovely, deserted girl! come and add one more to the happy group who call me father! their home shall be thine; thou shalt share their comforts; thou shalt be taught with them that virtue their father tries to practise! She stopped me; her eyes flashed with frantic joy; she flung herself on her knees before me, and burst into a flood of rapturous tears. I raised her in my arms, I hushed her eloquent gratitude, and led her to a home of happiness and piety. She loves my children, she loves their father, and is equally beloved by them all—and the poor orphan of the Hay-Market is now the partner of my only son!— De Burgh.
