There is now Hying in the parith of Ednam, the
birthplace of the immortal poet Tatou sou, a young
man of eighteen years of age, who was born without
legs or knees, and his thighs detettive. His father
was a day labourer, but has been dead for fame
years. He fits upon a table in the cottage through
the day, and when the weather is fair, his mother
carries him into a field where he read, and enjoys
the air. He has taught himfclf to read, to write a
legible hand, to play on the flute, to draw with a
pencil, although one of his arms he cannot rife to his
Areal!, and he attempts poetry. He is, notwithaand-
ing the want of crercife, very healthy, always cheat-
ful and contented, though his fupport depends en-
tirely upon the wages of his younger brother, who
is a fervant to a rel.-pet:table farmer at Ednara. When
his father died, his mother in great diftrefs, exclaim-
ed, o Oh I Wita.sass' who will maintain you now 1",
To which he anfwered, 4§ Dear mother, that DIVIN a
Baumm, who created me in this helplefs date, will
notfuffer me to perifis of want I" He is very grateful
to any perfon who lends him books, drawings to
copy, or pays the !call attention to him. He Is lit-1
tle known, or he would poffibly be relieved by the
[ benevolent. A very (mall furs would fecure him
from want, as oat-meal, milk, and potatoes, arc the
food of the Scou prafantry, and all he has ever
been accullomed to. The lamenefs of one of his arms

prevents him from learning any bufinefs to earn his
living. He is extremely well informed, cnnverfes
with great propriety upon every fable°, although
his articulation is alfo defeftive ; he leels much in-
iterefted in the prefent ante of his native country and
gsf Europe; reds the newfpapers, which are occa-
ffinally feat him, with great anxiety ; and, as a
proof of it, we infert a copy of his lift produaiun,

How Hafted now, bow changed my date,
