Example of Conjugal Love.

On the 9Th inst. died at Hucknall Tor
kard, in this county, at four o'clock in
the morning, John Spray, and on the
following morning at the same hour,
Mercy, his wife, the former aged II,
the latter SO years. They had eight
children, viz. two daughters and six sons,
the latter Of whom were all engaged in
the service Of his Majesty during the
late war. From the great attachment
the parties had TO each other, they were
called the two doves.o They were
never known to quarrel, nor ever went
out on business without accompanying
each other. Though many times they
had been destitute Of food for several
days together, and scarcely ever. had
sufficient supply, yet their natural cheer
fulness never forsook them: on the
contrary, an air of pleasantly at such
times was generally visible on their
countenances. 1t had been the constant
desire of both, for some years, that they
might die at the same time. They
were buried in the same grave on Tues
day affording, in their lives, an
example of conjugal attachment, in the
midst of poverty, rarely (perhaps never)
equalled. Their funeral obsequies were
attended by number of respectable
people, together with the members of
two Sick Clubs, to which they had be-
longed many years, and great con-
course Of spectators.

consumed nearly the whole village. An
imprudent young man, who joined the
company, amused himself by making the
boat roll from side to side, and terrified
some of the ladies so much as to make
them quit their positions and lay hold of
one another. The consequence was
that the boat upset, and the whole COM
pany were immersed in the water, and
only one of the whole was saved. This
lamentable event has covered the town
with mourning.

From the New-York Advertiser
LITERARY.

Messrs. Bliss and White, of this city,
are publishing book that has recently
appeared in England, entitled, 6 Vaieuos
of .America.'' This work is composed
of letters from an English lady, who re-
sided for some time in this city, and
during her stay in the United States
travelled over a considerable extent of
our country, to her friends in England
We have glanced rapidly over the sheets
of the American edition; and, although
we shall not attempt to give an elabo-
rate and critical account of the work,
we have seen enough TO convince us
that it will be popular in this country.
The author certainly came here with
very different feelings from those which
have been experienced by her country
men who have done us the honour to
publish books of travels in the United
States and her letters were composed
under the influence of those feelings.
The work is written with considerable
degree of sprightliness and the account
of our country and its inhabitants, of our
manners and institutions, is sufficiently
favourable, and indeed hattering, to sat
isfy our most particular feelings in the
general subject.
