Serene the Stranger slept, and siow'
A voice ADDRESSED him, sweet and low,
Twas P1TY meek:
A seraph's form she had assum'd,
With all the glow of beauty bloom'd
Her youthful cheek.
What means this melancholy air,
This careless gait, this vacant stare,
:, In thee?" she cries;
e Misfortunes have not touch'd thee sore,
Thousands of wretches suffer more;
Let ME advise.
III.
IfLove, more talk'ds of now, than felt,
Have luckless in thy bosom dwelt
o, anguish not, forlorn!
Full many females still there are,
AS wise, as modest, and as fair,
As she you mourn.
w.
Believe not coxcombs when they say
That ladies thoughtless are, though gay
A Ealsehood base
For oft the fair ones secret smile
Contempt for nonsense shews the while,
And pert grimaee.
V.
And take it for standing rule.
Who treats a woman as a iooi,
Shews weakness too,
Or else betrsys savage heart,
Ready to act the villains part,
And deeds of darkness do.
Go, then, nor solitary roam,
UNDECIDED, thus, without home,
The world around
Seek not perfection in thy state;
A virtuous female for mate
May soon be found"
VII.
+" MY heavily FRIEND" the stranger cried,
F" Though soft thy admonitions glide,
My heart is free
To me unknown the tender flame
So much eXtoIl'd, except by lame,
Or what see.
VIII.
See where yon boist'rous circle sit,
Where nonsense goes for sterling wit,
Or jest compleat;
From such with quick disgust l turn,
And DER their folly inward mourn,
As retreat.
TX.
But sweet to me the lonely walk,
Fair natures works, or social talk
To use bestow'd:
NV pleasures thesc---nor are they tew,---
As thus l silently pursue
My way to GoD."

Thus there are is less than during the pre-

Their year except the first one. This result
rs peculiarly pleasing to the Philanthrophic
mii,d-fewer human beings are condemned
to imprisonment, and fewer crimes have
been probably perpetrated. Fer, we have
not the slightest reasons to suppose, that the
Jories are more merciful, or the Courts less
vigilant in the execution Of The laws.
