TRAIT OF AMERICAN HISTORY

In the reign of Queen Ann, a ship OF about
three hundred tons, mounting twenty cannons,
manned by pirates, appeared OIL the harbour
Of Newport, cruising between Block island
and Point Judilh, in,errupting every vessel
that attempted 10 pass. and treating Inc"
crews with great severity. To remove an an
noyance SO injurious to the comfort and pros
perty OF the inhabitants OF Newport, two res
oIu,e young men, John and William Wanion,
determined to attempt her capture and the
means they resored to were as novel as the
success was glorious. They no sooner intima
lsd their intention, than they were joined by
thirty young men oi their acqua'nlance.--A
sloop, Of about sixty tons, was engaged for
the enterprise. This noble band went Oh

When the sun sheds soft and farewell ray, y

And wintry storms are near. ~ = )
Sweet is the Autumnsi rose g.se (

And while the north wind on his bosom blows
Upon the chill and misty air bestows
A chershins perfume.

ELEGY ON A CAT.
Grimalkin, late so fond Of play.
Grim death, at last, has snatch'd away,
Poor puss, on many mi-cheis bent,
No mouse thy exit will lament.
All now, our butter, cheese and bread,
Must doubtless he de mol-ish
'Twas thou that kept all safe and sound,
So that no rat bit e'er found.
Much shall we miss thee, at the FIRE,
When storms far louder grow, and higher:
Much miss thy lamentable wall,
When Chloe trod upon thy tail.
Farewell, Grimalkin! some have died,
Among that race, so puif'd with pride
Whom we might less lament than thee -
Soft then may thy last slunlbers be !
And may there soon more cats arise,
With stuck-up backs-snd ferg eyes,
With purring voice, and scratching claws
To grab the rat, that sqaeais and gnaws!
