can discover no reason why the regular

readily effect the object. Representations

When men are called with some little
warning into the presence Of the Author oi

idea fills one with solemnity --but when the

earthly and gully in the extreme, the sum

Horse race, ia Brunswick, on Satui day last,
man whose name We have not heard, was
kiIied,suddenly killed, by a fall. Death,un-
DER such circumstances, appears In ell its
tsrrors, and pity tor the victim on whom he
lays his iron hand we cannot but feel pity
and contempt, that men, by such amusr-
menis, OF rather such brutal exercises,
should expose their time and property with
out the hope Of good to either soul or body.
A mans heart must be Of strange materials,

NO mark Of manly or human feeling! /,
might be supposed that such amusements
