the di-drover of her frame. Assured of this, her Lady-
ship M.4,1,:i1er lair guest a visit, resolving, if possihle, to
downeer the latent Cathie of her indisposition. For this pur-
pose, she, with great address, asked her where shi
telt the most pain? and in what manner particularly
wsis she affected? Not receiving to these questions.
and some others of a similar nature, the most explicit
niaswers, her first suspicions were ball stronger co
trifled. With all the tender delicacy, therefore, which
stivtinenialied her amiable character, she seized her 114111 i
Willi benign sympathy, and aleclared ;she was most ex-
tremely happy to have 'Uncovered that the came of her
'ilady was not incurable. The cause is love,' said
alw, ' and for which I think a certain core may he
fonnd."Fhe change she perceived this observation
made in her fair patient, confirmed its propriety. She
then entreated the indisposed damsel to own to her, who
was the object of her affection; and promised, upon her
honor, not to betray her confidence. She farther ore•
veiled, by assuring her that she would, were it possible,
obtain for her the object of her languishing desiree.—
• I have so great an opinion of your discretion, my dear
Signora,' continued the worthy Lady, • that you could'
not possibly fix your affections on an improper object,
that I am the more impatient to know who he is, that
may the sooner find the means of restoring you to your
wonted charms, health, and happiness. My Lord is
it-.ply afflicted in consequence of vonr indisposition.
He is, indeed, much more distressed than I could hare
thought ha could, with all bia teailernesa of nature, have
been for any stranger to his blood, even as amiable as
you are, my dear Signora.'
"o,my dear Madam!' said the much to be pitied young
lady, * spare me, spare me! I dare not confess my
weakness, even to you—all.gracious as you have been in
your orphan charge. And I cannot exprees the remorse I
feel at my being obliged to behave with ingratitu,:e to
yore dear Lord, by concealing from him as well as from
pm, two such generous benefactors, what preys upon
my existence, and mast finally bear me to the grave.'
"' My dear Signora,' replied the lady ' now in
yonr power to arqnit yourself of all conceived obliga-
tion to both him and me, by so far convincing us we de-
serve year confidence, as to trust us with the important
secret. We would wish to have this assurance of your
reposing in our zealous efforts being exerted in vuur
welfare. It is no idle curiosity that urges my intreaty,
hot an indescribable interest I feel in your favour.—
Should there be found, upon inquiry, any insuperable
liar to an honorable nnion, that can alone restore you to
your fanner peace of mind, the secret shall ever remain
unilisenvered to the impertinence of inquiry, or the
censure of malignity.'
" The :above candid, sincere, and interesting declara-
tion of the good holy, was too prevailing. It won at
once the confidence and heartfelt gratitude of the af-
flirted fair one. She confessed • that Mr. Garrick was
the object of her 'Verna ; but be woe as yet entirely ig-
nerant of being the cause of what she bad so severely
felt front her tender attachment.'
" The amiable lady, with the greatest concern, heard
this confession, and told her, with symptoms of appre-
betiaion, that she feared the possibility of her desires
vrr bring gratified by the attainment of their object :
that Mr. Garrick was a young fellow universally ca-
reoooll by families of the first distinction, and one who
Lad been already inspected of aspiring to rank sod for-
tone in a matrimonial alliance. She represented like-
wise to her languishing patient many other difficulties i
lint, finding they bad visibly affected the tender state of
the now albdeeponiling fide, she 'muted her that no
means should be left untried. She begged that neither
lingoor nor hopeless grief should he suffered to prey
any longer on her almost exhausted frame. • Confide,'
said she, in my Lord's good offices, and he assured of
our best efforts liming exerted to obtain you consolation
and relief.'
Ilk Lordship was rejoiced that his Lady bad obtain-
ed the secret cause of his beloved (although unarowesl)
thoehter's indisposition: in proportion to its conceal•
saint having caused him the greatest uneasiness, ire ilia-
cot cry afforded him pleaanre. Being pu .1 of th
troth, his hopes of his child's speedy recovery began to
revive. Knowing Garrick's love fir money was the rat
of his expectations, and the guide of his measures, Mr.
, ilitrirk was instantly sent for to his house. Ho had no
• sooner arrived, and inquired after the health of Signora,
than his Lordship opened the negotiation of Hymen,
Lys informing him with a smile. • that the lady's inilis•
position was not to be removed by any other than one

' Pray, my dear Lord,' said the astonished manager,

" Well, Sir.' answered his Lordship, • should you
find, upon the strictest inquiry, that Signora Violetti is

tii•indispensible to the honour of the female character,
do you think you could setisfatoorily receive her from
try hands, with a portion of ten t thousand pounds ?

„'the enraptured Garrick gave life Lordship ten

When air. Garrick entered the chamber, lie flew to
the bedaisie of his yummier', fair. and acted his part
with as much grace, and perhaps more nature, than he
ba ',ter perforated it on the stage. His Lordship then
pleasantly informed her, that her Doctor had been in

an obstinate and unnecessary silence. From this auspi-
cious hour the God of Health rehloonied her cheek, and
re-illuminated her eye, and the English Ituacios conti-

" The nuptials tieing celebrated. Mr. Edward Moore,
• the ingenious city poet, inscribed a very pretty copy of
to Mr.. Garrick, wherein lie describes Fortune in
search of a tavoarite danghter. After many a weary
step, she stopped her giddy wheel at Burlington gate,
where she found the object of her inquiry, and lavished
on her the choicest of her favours."
t Mr. Murphy mentions the sum to have been six thou-
sand pounds.
