The Diary commences immediately before the Restoration,
when Mr. Pepya sailed with the Earl of Sandwich to bring over
the King from Breda, and is continued almost uninterruptedly
for ten years, containing much curious matter not to be found
in any other history of that eventful period. Independently of
the naval transactions, which are detailed with great exactness,
the pages abound with private Anecdotes of Charles 11. and his
Court ; and Mr. Pepys's peculiar habits of observation led him
generally to record the most curious characteristics of the times
in which he lived.

A PARTY. OF FOUR, OR CUNNING
EXEMPLIFIED.
'Phree Friends I hare with me,' a lunatic said,
His form in the Boots of his Guide as pourtray'd;
Just so our Protectors, two travellers mute,
Thus they, )ou, and I, make a party of Four.'
These Four then arriv'd at an Inn for the night,
The place• of asylum at hand, all was tight ;
For while in deep slumber the Guide lay fast bound,
The Insane the Doetot's Certificate found,
And, speeding his way to the tslad-house,—' I've gut
A friend,' he then said, whose unfortunate lot
It is to he craz'd shall bring hint apace ;
But, mind, he ►•ill wish to put me in his place,
By swearing that I ant the madman not hint,
With (Alm- crock-brain'd unaccountable whim.'
His steps then retracing, the Inn he regain'd,
Asleep while the unconscious Guide still remain'd,
And rousing him, both saltiest forth to explore
The Country, till teaching the Asylum door.
When quit came the Keeper,—' We Four,' said the Guide,
My friend, Two Protectors my Boots in beside.'—
' Yon bear,' cried the Lunatic, ` Reason is lacking,
He sees '1•wo Protectors in Warren's Jet Blacking.'
Aye, Aye,' said the Keeper, then pounced on his prey,
And clad him at once in strait-waistcoat array.
'Tis He,' in amaze, cried the Guide, who is mad,
Not Me but attention was not to he bad;
They shav'd his head closely and pinion'd him down,
While scamp'sing the Insane in triumph to Town.
You've murder'd your Guide, cried bit friend • in despair,
' The Guide—why he's mad, as the maddest March bare,
And safely sreued—so be after hint packing—
The Biter is bit, and through Warren's Jet Blacking !

upon the Great North Road, and in the immediate vicinity of the
celebrated Croft Spaw, and is well adapted for carrying on busi-
ness on a large scale. There is a valuable Seam of Clay in this

cupations of Thomas Parkinson, George Ramlett, and John
Johnson, and adjoining Lot 14, on the East.
The ,ots 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15, are now particularly
desirable from their proximity to the intended Depots and
Wharfs of the Stockton and Darlington Rail-way Company at
Croft Bridge, from which a very extensive trade into York.
shire is anticipated to arise. The above Estate is situated in
a beautiful rnd picturesque Country on the Banks of the River
Tees, and commands an extensive and delightful Prospect of
the surrounding country, and is at the distance of about three
miles from the increasing and flouring market-town of Dar-
lington. The Fields are conveniently divided by good Quick
Hedges, and the Latil is of superior quality. From the
contiguity of this Estate to the Croft Branch Rail-way, now
in progress, and the Depots and Wharfs intended to be made
by the Company at Croft Bridge, its value will be greatly in.
creased. _ _
