An Ancient Lady.
We hear from AccOmack, in Virginia, tnaI
: recently there died at that place one MIS-
Eleanor Spicer, aged III years, VINO re-
tanned her senses and memory to the laSt.
She worked at her spinning vince. VIII
great dexterity, till within few mon i;nn OF OF
llcr death She never drank any KIND or
spurious liquors and leaves grandson
upward of eighty years old.
a letter from George Washington, dated
Mount Vernon. Va. July -. 1Il3, appears
in the paper. General Washington propose
amongst certain number OF tenants VINO
would agree to improve the lahd III con,
sidera ton of free rent for a certain Ferlou

How They Advertised.
Here is one of the funny advertisements
i'll the paper:
Thomas Brercton, commissioner ana
insurance broker, FRA tefu.ly acknowledges
the favor Of his friends and hopes Tor Il
continuance of their correspondence. ne
has now for sale pocket oI Good hopS,la
10-inch new cable. ANA wants 10 buy Il ne
gro girl, about twelve years Old,
Here in another: Daniel Grant,
who lately kept tavern ut the slsn
of the buck, near Philadelphia, bess 'eaVe
to inform the public that he hath opened
an inn and tavern at the sign OF the toun-
tain, in that large and commodious Ecuse,
lately built by Mr.. Cough, in Market street.
Baltimore He hath provided Tor the ac-
commodation of gentlemen, their servants
and horses in the best manner, and th0s@
who favor him, in their custom, may, pe
assured of his best endeavors to merit their
appreciation"
A sad Reflection.
The merit excited by the quaint and
curious language of the little newspaper -
not unmiXed with sadness. Coming as y
does over Il stretch of so many years II re-
tails the gossip of a time beyond the mem
DRY of living men. All who advertised IN
read it, are now resting quietly under the,
sod, and many of their children's children
have joined them in the sleep that knows
no waking. journalism has made wonder
full strides since that day. Baltimore mas
become one of the greatest cities OF the
world The carnage of a mighty revolution
has consummatcd the dreams of liberty III
which our grandfathers INDUCED, ana a
mighty empire Tapped by the waves of two
oceans, now occupies the the coun,
try in which they struggled
but of whose extent they never dreamed
Coming from Il period 80 remote the news
naper is ike Il departed spirit come back t.
life. 1t derides the petty ambitions or those
who are now seeking after preferment
by showing how those who sought after n j.
toiety and whose names somehow or 9theI
crcnt into the public print, have all been
Ioid AWAY in the dust. while the little news
raner, which has already attained to IT,
ace of patriarch. has again turned up III
tbe world to remind it Of their little glory
and to be missionary to their descend
ants.
