TO A LADY PROFESSING HER BELIEF IN AS-

TRO LOG Y.

'Tis eve, and the stars that illumine the night
Diffuse a soft lustre around ;
You tell me, dear maid, in those bodies of light
The secrets of fate may be found ;
If so, I believe in your bright orbs of blue
Futurity equally lies :
So for once -I will e'en turn astrologer too,
And study my doom in 'your eyes.
No science is surely so pleasing as this, '•
But yet 'tis obscure and perplext,
One moment I read in it rapture and bliss,
And falsehood and sorrow the next:
You smile—now'my stars a bright aspect assume,
I pant for my.cliarmerllslecree t,
Then come, dear astrologer, tell me my doom,
And I'll give you my heart for‘a fee I M. A.

An elegant and commodious stand, upon a per-
manent scale, is about to be erected on Ascot
Heath, for the accommodation of his MAJEsTy at

."-A. range of new houses are about to be erected on the side of

Mr. TAyLon., who, some time ago, assured the
freemen of Durham, from the windows of the Town Hall, that
" he did not love them—he adored them !" has afforded some
strange proofs of his regard in the part he has taken with re-
spect to the Bill now before Parliament for the improvement
of the city. What the adorable creatures will say to him we
know not, but after having urged them to petition against the
Bill on its being returned to th House of Commons, (assuring
them that a very trifling petition would then have the effect of
throwing it out,) we find he is now secretly condemning their
proceedings, and assuring those who are in favour of the amend-
ed Bill, that he had done every thing in his power to put down
the opposition to it !—(Durhain Advertiser, April 13.)
We perceive by the Liverpool Papers, that
the inhabitants of that town have it in contem-
plation to invite their distinguished Represent-
ative, the Right Honourable GEORGE CANNING,
to a public dinner, previously to his departure
for India.
