ANECDIT, Or THY AIAROVIS Or t.aarry.—Every
person who has ever beard or read of the eraploits of the
late elfarcluis of Granby, knows that his expenditure was
=at profuse, and his charities almost without limits.
In riding along the lines of the British forces, when he was
in the chief command of them on the Continent, he used
to throw down ducats to every soldier's wife who asked
him for them, without discrimination. Ile not only on
these °erasion' --,vent all the money he had about his own
moon, but null to horrow promiscuously of every member
.
of his wit who hativeneilio be Dear him. Ilia Lordship a
genereut heart could-not bear to keep a person who hat!
asked charity of him a single iuitant bf twopence, and hem
consequence drew so lavishly on the pockets of his staf£
borrowin7, of them ToJustity, that be used to forget from
trhrea be bad remised these momentary loans ; that they
end to find it convenient either to accompany their Gene-
ral with, in tit.: true tense of the word, " a soldier's
Pocket," et make ,onte excuse, as Mum as pcssible, not to
at-cwri him on hie mowing rides throorrh the lints. On
•-•ne of these eccavions, ■ sudden fit of econerny seized the
Marquis, and on the fist soldier's Wife begging of hint
that rooming, he pullet out a ducat from his pocket, and
it.sherl hs Aid-de-Camp, Captain Cartwright, to •,rocure
ht.!: silver fur :t. Hi, itral. were full of curiosity to see
the en.l of this novel and unexpected circumstance ; the
wee= herself cceunti thunderstruck ; but of course no
remark was made. As semi as the Aid-de-Camp had
brought the change, he gave it to lids General, who was
then in conversation with the woman, hearing her tale of 1
sr e. On receiving the money, the Marge i; poured it from
ooe hand to the other, listening attentively to the peti-
tioner's story, and at last put the whole of the silver that
Ice had in change for the ducat into her hand.
Captain C—, who Is well known iu the polite circles,
and in the lists of duelling is reputed as a Het-rate shot.
