The Last Hours Of a Single Gentleman

This morning, at half-past eleven O clock
precisely, an unfortunate young man, Mr..
Edward Pinckney, underwent the extreme
penalty of nfatuation, by exprating his at
tacnment to Mary Ann Gale, in front of the
Altar railing of st. Mary's Church. Isling-
ton.
1t will be IN the recollection of all those
friends of the parties who were at Jones's
party at Briston, two years ago, that Mr.
Pinckney was there, and then first intro
duced to Mary Gale. to whom he instantly
began to direct particular attentions-dan-
cling with her no less than six sets that eve
ming, and handing things at supper in the
most devoted manner. From that period
commenced the intimacy between them
which terminated in this mornings catas-
trophe.
Poor Pinckney had barely at aimed his
twenty.eighth year, but there is no reason
to believe that but for reasons of pecuniary
nature, his single life would have come ear
her to an untimely end. A change for the
better, however, having occurred in his cir
cumstances, the young lady's friends were
induced to sanction his addresses, and thus
become accessories to the course for which
he has Just suffered.
The unhappy man passed the last night
Of his bachelor existence in his solitary
chamber. From haf-past eight to ten he
was engaged in writing letters. Shortly
after, his younger brother, Henry, knocking
at the door, when the doomed youth told
him to come in, On being asked when he
meant to 90 to bed, he replied" Not yet.
The question was then put to hun how ht
thought he would sleep? TO which he an
swered. "I don't know" He then express
ed his desire for cigar and glass OF grog
His brother, who sat down and partook 0
the like refreshments, now demanded if h
would take anything more that night. ii
said nothing" in firm voice. His affec
tionate brother then rose to take leave
when the devoted one considerably advise
him to take care of himself.
Precisely at quarter of minute to seve
the next morning, The victim of Cupid hay
ing been called, according to his desire, h
rose and promptly dressed himself. He ha
the sef-contro to shave himself without tn
slightest injury; for not even a scratch upo

would seem that he had devoted a long,
time than usual al his toilet. M@ 80
The wretched man was attired in sigl
blue dress coat, with frosted buttons, whiI
vest and nankeen tsowsers, with paten
leather boots. He wore around his neck
variegated satin scarf, which partly concea
ed the Corrazza of the bosom. In front
the scarf was inserted breastpin Of co
splcuous dimensions. @
/ Having descended the staircase with
quick step. he entered the apartment whe
