CHARLES STUART, Shmfl And evu-y ]:erl'i! o*" p'-rfons having claims on the alwve r!..;eiibcd lot of land, by ntort- ga^e or ofh.r ri;.l»t or incumbrance, firehtre- containi (r by RECKONER. Sir—I have been fcarching three days for a good letter writer to anfvverycurcorrefjxindentTeftitia, who makes a great noifc about bad fcrvants. Perfpns that are under the hard neccdity cf working for their daily bread in the houfes of people, no better than themfelve.% are fkbjecled to contumelies, and infults enough, without being ex- pofed in printed papers* But it is very eafy for poor fcrvants to re¬ tort with intereft, they have only to give the hiilory of a few of their employers to turn the laugh com¬ pletely in their favour. My iirft place, Mr. Reckoner, was with an officer, who lives on his half-pay. This poor man had been accident¬ ally made a Captain in the Ameri- mental mefs he had become a (me Gentleman. Some of the old lea¬ ven remained in his compofttion, jnotwithftahding frequent mighty pnralions, and in one of his Fro¬ lics he married the widow of a Sol¬ dier, who was killed with General Fra&r. This lady-^ad all the tal¬ ents which qualify a woman tor becomimra follower or' the camp, time feems rather to have impro¬ ved, than impaired her Abilities. You will not fuppole that 1 had a very profound refpccV either lor the Captam or his Lady, or that I fhould have coniidcred mylclf mightily honoured by fitting at the fame table with them. But I was willing to confine myfclt to the Kitchen, and as little inclined to afk. as they were difpol'cd to in¬ vite me into the Parlour.. The Captain foon found himielf out¬ matched by his wife, who chole to if Hie had lefs than all the feven ia her full drefs. Accordingly the little money which the Captain could fpare was fpent in finery for his Lady, who regarded very little how he was drefled himf.'lf. One evening returning with his fweet wife from the AiTembly, where the poor man as he never dances had taken a liberal allowance, he {tum¬ bled over a flone, and falling pull* ed her down with him in the mire. You may judge how her red rib¬ bons and fine pink gown looked after rolling in the kennel—the poor Lady was almolt in convul- fions, when fhe came in, and it was fome time before her tongue could articulate. When her rage found utterance, fhe oppened a peal upon the Captain, which made my hair iland on end, but the good man fcli alleep. This enraged the dear Lady itiil more. With fome hefr- tation 1 attempted to coniole her, obfervins thct it was accidental* and that her pink gown in my humble opinion did not fuit her complexion fo well as white muf¬ fin. She feemed to hear me with attention, and I was proceeding with my foothing fpeech. But her filence which was only that of rage broke forth in a torrent of abul'e upon me. How dare you interfere or prefume to tell me what fiats my complexion or how I fhould drefs, down flairs to the Kitchen you trull—faying this lhe puihed me out of the room, and ihut the door upon my heels. Next morning fhe attempted to make an apology, but I departed with the Lois or*a months wages. My next Miilrcfs had been fent to England for her education, and thought hcrieifa being luperior to the Ladies around her. She was quiet at home, and not otherwifc Frefii Goods "D WHITNEY Ins ju(l received Cot- • ton Shii'lin'gi Cotton Chtnibiay Giog- hams, Clack.

She thought the leaves rcmaing in the Tea-pot, alter die and her fpouie had breakfailed, ftrong enough without putting in frefh tea, altho* the quantity tiled at Civil was not half fufiicicnt. She counted the Potatoes, weighed the beef, and if {nc forgot her Keys, lhe was filled with terror lealt lhe had been robbed, and took the op¬ portunity of making long fpeeches on honefty and fidelity. She was always peilering me with acclama¬ tions again!! my predeceiTor, one was dirty, another flow, a third proud, a fourth light fingered. She was forever in the Kitchen, and continually finding fault, talk¬ ing of her gentility, therdpccla- bility of her parents, and the ex¬ cellence of her education. Some¬ times flic aHeclcd to pity poor fcr¬ vants, who were frequently for¬ ced, to become drudges to low vul¬ gar people, without feelings or hu¬ manity. Her pariimony however was confined to articles of houfe- keeping, for in her drefs flic was exceedingly extravagant. She had a great predilection for a variety of colours, and was never fatlsfied tions. Even perfons confpicious for their virtues their attention to'* their families, and fweetnefs of dii- polition could not efcape her flan- derous tongue. And what was worft of all, (he appealed to me for the truth of her obfervations. This was on the whole the moft painful iervice that I ever endured. I felt mylclf degraded by liitening to her flander, and not oppofm-j; her. I became in my own opinion a part¬ ner in her <niilt. I was therefore extremely uneafy, and longed for the expiration of the month. Not having any children, much of her time was fpent in company, and flie would receive with the greatefr. cordiality and demonftrations of Friend;!dp, thofe Females whom, ihe was the moft apt to load with calumnies. One evening; flic be- gan to fpeak moft difrefpedfully of Sophronbj a. Lady of the moft excellent character, whom I had formerly ferved with delight, but who was obliged to difcharge me on account ot the lofe of part of her fortune. I ventured to (peak in her defence, by ftating mildly that lhe muft have been milinform¬ ed, for there was not a mere ex emplary Lady in Canada. I had neve- feen m\ Miftrd^ anffry, and •
