Tn Justice 10 this excellent Romance, we
need only remark, that the Grand Dramatic
piece, which for several seasons past drew
such full houses to our theatre, is founded on
the same subject, as translated by Dunlap !;
but the acknowledged superiority Of Lewis's
writings or TRANSACTIONS in the Romance style.
being so far superior to any other OF our mo-
Gern authors, leaves encomium unnecessary
with the.publishers.

sold. III a very short time, after publication in

For the REpuBLIcAN.
LICEN7YO USNESS OF YOUTH

II is impossible to describe the licentious-
ness OF the present age, or pourtray the pre-
vailing vices of the times in a colour which
they deserve. Scarcely has the youth assum-
ed the appearance of manhood, ere he bids a.
dieu to every principle of virtue and morality
He views with an eye of scorn the sacred pre-
cepts of his superiours, and considers religion
as the cffusion of frantick mind on cnthusi-
astick b;got. Raised by SELF consequence a.
bove the common class of mankind, he engag-
es in every species of debauchery: his sensu-
al appetites are gratiied. AT one time he
waliows in the lap of desire, at another he
reels from the brothel regardless of his repu-
tation and having reached his destined home
ai,.iast the sneers OF the populace, retires to
rest until the fumes of copious draughts of
Intoxicating liquors have ceased to operate on
his brain. He awakcs. What, to sense Of
his deplorablc situation No; but to again
renew his iniquitous course OF life--again to
continue his midnight revcls. Once more he
visits the billiard OF the card table. Another
debauch unstrings his nerves His feeble,
tottering, ernaciatcd form is no longer able to
support him. Pale disease attacks and con-
quers his constitution He sinks beneath its
influence, and unpitied dies.
