But it appears That Fusel was Is much
vedded to literature as to art, for he entered
MO An engagement to write for tho -analyts-
al ReritH. It is eaid Of him that his acquire
nents were 80 varied and his knowledge so ex-
ensive that he was employed in several de-
paEmcnts Of literature, 1ey'owlng works trans
Ietires, tho sciences, and fine arts. At tho age
of 10 he married, and was soon after elected
III Afsociatc Of the Royal Academy, Of which
he became Inter the Keeper aud Professor OF
Painting. Two years nfter his marriage, Mary
Wol]stonecraft formed hia acquaintance at tho
l.trie1r. to which they wero both contributors.

popular, and were deemed masculine in ArEu-
ment, aud altogether superior TO any work of
the kind before attempted by WOMAN.
Fukcli and Mary Wollstonectaft wero both
deeply absorbed in the opportunity which they
believed presented itself for tho French to Sc
cure to themselves liberties which no previous
period in their history had offered. Thoy
were brought much together from tho naturo
Of their employment, and from a"congruity
OF eeDtimcnt - upou al topics Of interest.
