T° THE BENEVOLENT.
The Widow and Daughters of R3BERT 3iUDIE, the late
eminent Author of Works on Natural History, Philosophy, and
Science, left destitute by his death ten years ago, have since strug-
gled with adversity until the few remaining articles of furniture
were swept off last week for a quarter's rent of five guineas.
By this last distress her little school has been broken up. The
object of this appeal is to raise a small sum to enable them to resume
their exertions. Mr. Mudie was well known to every distinguished
literary person of the present day. and several of his works have
been translated into foreign languages.
The following parties will gladly receive any contributions for this
Benevolent object:—

THE SHABBY FAMMERLY;
Or,
HOW THE STUCKUPS WHO WAS "NOBODY" STBUGGLED
TO BE " SOMEBODY."
Expojed by
EMMEELY TIDDIVATE,
(Late " Fam do Sham" to the Fammerly, though really and truly I
were nothink but a common Housemaid and worked off my legs.)
Miss E. Tiddivate in making this her first debutt before a Generous
British Publick hopes tke Cautious Reader will look upon her au-
thorgraphy with an indulgent I, as E. T. Is entirely self-learnt and
was never brought up to wheeled a pen ; but really I feel it my dooty
to propergate all the mean artifuges and paltry subterflces my late
missuses (who axchully wanted to be mistook for some of the owe
tong) was guilty of as I pursessed the entire confidence of both the
ykng ladies and their mar into the bargain likewise, which I told
them they'd suffer for when they refuged to pay me my month as
was my doo, so I mean to hold them up to publick reticule once a
month, which I've nothink but a rights to in this land of liberties,
and with that intentions I have kept a dairy every day of the nasty
mean goings on of the whole of the shabby famraerly, who was
always hunting after their bargains and their tray bong marshes as
they called 'em no matter who suffered so long as they got the
things cheap. Oh I can't abear such mean ways !
Miss E. T. begs Ito throw herself; cn a human british publick as
she is satisfied it will not stand quietly by and see a poor helpless fe-
male put upon as I have been when her subscribers reads all she has
gone through.
