The following humorous letter of the
above admired author, (written previous
y to the publication of the first volume
of his poems) will show the facility Of
his rhyming talents -
TO THE REV. JOHN NEWTON.
My dear friend,
am going to send, what, when you
have read, you may scratch your head,
and say, suppose, there's nobody knows,
whether what have got be verse or not;
by the tune and time, it ought to be
rhyme; but if 1t be, did you ever see, Of
late or Of yore, such ditty before?
have writ charity, not for popularity.
but as we'll as could, in hopes to do
good and if the reviewer should say" to
be sure the gentleman's muse wears
Methodist shoes, you may know by her
pace, and talk about grace, that she and
her bard have little regard for the taste
and fashions, and ruling passions, and
hoydening play of the modern day -
and though she assume a borrowed
plume, and now and then wear a litter
ing air, its only her plan, to catch if She
can, the giddy and gay, as they so that
way, by production on new constrpc-
ton: she has baitod her trap, in hopes
to snap all that may come, with sugar
plum"
His opinion in this will not be amiss;
It's what | intend my principal end, and
| if succeed, and folks should read, till
few are brought to serious thought, /
shall think l am paid for all have said,
and all have done; though | have run
many a time after rhyme, as far as from.
hence to the end of my fence; and, by
hook or by crook, will write another
book, if live and am here another year.
| have heard before of room with a
floor laid upon springs, and such like
things, with SO much art in every part,
that when you went in you were forced
to begin minuet pace, with an air of
grace, swimming about, now in and now
out, with deal Of state, in figure OF
eight, without pipe or string, or any such
thing: and now have writ in rhyming
fit, what will make you dance, and as you
advance, will keep you still, though
against your will, dancing away, alert and
gay, till you have come to the end OF
what have penn'd; which that you may
do, ere Madam and you are quite worn
out with jigging about, | take my leave;
and here you receive bow profound
down to the ground, from your humble
me, w. =.

Mr.. Colcman-I take the liberty Of
requesting you to publish, for the sene-
fit of whom it may concern, that the OIL
Of henny royal will ef1ectually prevent
one of the present miseries OF New-York
the biting Of musqnitoes at night
The oil, little weakened, should be
rubbed on the hands and face, just as you
go to bed, and the mosquitoes, if in the
room, will keep at respectful distance
This has been proved by a friend to quiet
