SONNET
a - made to my Mistress' Eye-brocv•.s

Bleep on, my level unbroken be thy slumber;
Suspend avthile the witchcraft of thine eyes,
.s-... Their magic could the coldest heart encumber
With fondest love and never-ceasing sighs!
Per fled is all the once I boasted,
Since Cupid bent from thence his potent bow,
Which on thy brows the urchin sly bath posted;
His quiver is the orb which rolls below!
•
Erlglit auburn arch! of more than mortal beauty, •
Thou Hearst Iris in her richest hue,
When, wined by lovi, she does her gratefal duty,
• Dispels the clouds and drinks the liog'ring dew.
Emblem of such a guest, 0 ! be thou ctlil to me ;
And, should my Mistress frown, I'll smile and worship thee!

• This feu desprit was produced at a very short notice, on an
accomplished and beautiful Lady's expressing her doubts whether
the Auflior was sufficiently in love to make a Sonnet on her
Eye-brow.

A numerous company of Gentlemen educated at

house on Saturday, Mr. C.- HUTCHINSON in the chair.
A galloway belonging to a person in Store-street
yesterday,started from Kilburn, to go to Bushey and
back, (23 miles) in an hour and a half; which it per-
formed with ease seven minutes within the time, for a

ATTEMPTED MURDER AT APPLETO.•-•FlittllCT par-
, tlculars ; —We are happy to hear that Mr. Burrows is
doing well, and is considered out of danger; but un-
fortunately we cannot congratulate our. readers on
the apprehension of Bowler. The following are some
additional particulars obtained since our last report.
.The :aatement of some slugs having been extracted
from the neck of the wounded man, does not turn out
to be quite correct; though Mr. B. was wounded
there, the charge had not lodged. One slug, how-
ever, as beige stated, has lodged in the back, about
the bladebone, which is not considered dangerous.—
He is in good spirits, and has but little fever. An
extraordinary circumstance occurred on Sunday ;
about two o'clock a man brought the horse home
which Bowler rode off with, and on inquit y, it was
found out to be the beadle at Harrow. On farther
inquiiy it appeared, that Bowler had given a man a
one pound swte to take the horse to a schoolmaster at
Harrow with a letter, but after the delivery of the
hove, he lost no time in making his departure, so that
tbiircumstance gave no clue to Bowler's retreat.—
Great hopes are, however, entertained of his speedy
apprehension, as an officer was within half an hour of
him on Sunday, in the neighbourhood of Aylesbury.
Bowler was formerly a smuggler, has accumulated
good property, and has a nurderoits grown-up family.
There was no other-ground for his vile, unmanly con-
duct' than that in a quarrel betwixt Mr. Burrows and
him about six weeks ago, respecting some Toppings
of pbllards, the former in reply to some very bad
language, told him, that iC he had his devil, he would
net then have been in this country.
