My letter in in my hand, the feal is broken—I proceed to unfold it—I then look willfully at the candle, the tallow begins to melt, it is too near the ilame ; it gets worfe—it will be out, thinksl, and taking the fntiffers to fpread the wick, it is extinguished. The ftove was at hand to light it, but I had no paper, and tbe hoy had taken away, the tongs. Dii- ficj))tic«£ to a man of genius, ierve to demon- flrate iiis vail, refources ; to fuch proper ex¬ pedients will alway s occur. J took a coal out of the grove with the fnovel, and tried to ligfci my candle. I blew, but no ilame arofc ; wh.cn turning a little round, the back ofthe chateWlroele the iliovel-handle and tolled the live coal npon Cue in'iudle ol cue tiew caipeu 1 dropped the candle, leized the coal in my hand to throw it into the (love. It miffed, but it did not fail to burn my fingers. I then caught hold of it with my letter, which it fcorched, and hurled it into the afh-pan with fome difficulty. The fmarting of my fingers prevented me from thinking of my letter.or my friend lor fome time ; at length I did what I fhould have done at firft and laved myfelf all this vexation ; I rung the bell and ordered the fervant to light my can¬ dle. What with the burning of the carpet, the fcorching of my letter, and the pain of my fingers, I was fo much fluttered that I did net enjoy myfelf all the evening. Laura was yellerday in great diftrefs.— Her friend had bought fome beautiful iilk foi a new pelice, but when me went to pur- chafe, it was all fold. T r u x 1 l l a was declaim tag at my 1 aft v ififc en the growing pride and impudence of in¬ feriors. She had jud received a very hand- fome drefs from Montreal, which (he was ad¬ miring with a few chofen friends, when a corporal's wife came to folicit the favor of being allowed to tafce a pattern. The pre¬ emption was more than the fair Truxilla's patience could bear ; (he therefore drove the poor woman away in great indignation. Damon was picking the road with great care on the way to dine with a feleft party. The dreets were muddy, but he preferved his white iilk dockings clean, and had got almod to the end of his journey, when a drunken failor jumping into a dirty puddle, befmeared him with mire. Poor Damon o-oes home in great vexation to refit ; but alas 1 befoie he i3 adjuded it is too late. Narbal pouted for ten days, becaufe he had been anticipated in a coat of a peculiar falhion,which hefcad ordered from Montreal. Precedency is a fource of much vexation. Fejlina happening to be next the door ofthe drawing room, depped into the dining room before feveral other ladies who thought them- felvts her fuperiors. Diffatisfa&ion clouds every brow. One teffes her head, another curls up her nofc—the words updart, pert minx, rude creature, low manners, <xc. are impei fe&ly heard. At affemblies the drawing of tickets ; the calling of dances ; preferring refrtmrnents ; handing from one room to another, are pro¬ lific fources of vexation which frequently de- ilroy all the pleafures of the evening. Her- mia had jud returned from New York,whrre Hie had learned fome new figures for country dances. Her turn to call comes ; (he intro¬ duces one of the moll difficult figures ) flte antfeipares with joy the confufion which it would create, and Ihe exidted in her fuptriot knowledge. The next couple try, but fail ; they know 401 how to turn : the mufic h/ayes them ->.hind, and they are obliged to wait l. w:: the dance. Lampra chaises Hkr..-»Afs figure for one wtll known ; hut this was a mortal affront. A complaint is made to the mader of ceremonies—the dance is (topped, and the whole room filled with confufion. Now thefe are little grievances which are ridiculous on recollection, though they never fail to embitter life as they pafs along. But fince they become fubjects of merriment after a. little time, would it not ,be better to laugh at them when thty hap¬ pen ? This is a change which I am project¬ ing myfelf, and I recommend it to my read¬ ers. The greater number of thefe things which pioauce irritation will be f -rgotten altogether; fome of them in a f^w hours, and moll of them in a few days. Even thofe which are remembered only ierve to fnew us upon what ridiculous grounds we choofe to fret and be angry; I bugh at my adventure with the candle ; I beg therefore that laugh¬ ing may take phice of pouting ; of gather¬ ing wmth ; of taking offence, when none is intended. As long as we can preferve our temper^ we can judge ; but the moment we begin to fume, rcafon difappears ; the fmalleft ciffcr- ence is exaggerated into an injury, and a look orajed, which in our cool moments would have given us pleafure, now raitcs our fpletri* From a London paper. r An extraordinary fcene of villainy has re¬ cently been dcucicd in one of the Weflern countries :—A yMmg man, who devoted his time to the acquiuion of pugilifm, while his fan i'y mppoi'ed \i-: v/as fiudying Divinity at Oxiord lometime ago gave out that he had received a living in the county of Suffolk. of S," :•. per a. num, and that a relation in tiie Eaii nail )e:t him a tortui t <t ^o,co&L To confirm thefe alTerti ms, he fabiicatcd the necefiary documents, and kept up an oiKn- fible correfpondence with the gentleman who gave hiri the living, and who apparently replied with, great punctuality to his letters, and alwaya according to his wid.es; which he tookr.be furell way of accomplidling, by witting the aufwershimf-lf, and finding to an agent in London, to be returned to him in the Country, or fent to thofe whom he in¬ tended to make the chief dupes of his frauds. So ably was his plan matured, that he impof- ed on a refpectable folicitor in London, and madelii/n inilrtimeutaT.fc<\the completion of it. By thefe means, and the expe; five dyle in which he lived, he contrived to raife fev¬ eral thoufands in the metropolis, by grant¬ ing annuities at a low price ; and in the country, bv bills drawn in the name of the fuppofed donor of vhe living, on a resectable banking-houfe. Some doit time fmce he feduced a young lady, under a promife of marriage ; and defrauded the brothel" cf a. tefpec'table perfou's daughter, with whom he intermarried, about 6 weeks ago, of io,oool. to compromise, as he laid, the affair. He abfeonded a few days ago, leaving his wife in a very unenviable ikuatibn ; but great, hopes are entertained of his apprehenfion. When he went off he wore th'fc habit of a clergyman, in which character he voluntarily officiated, and mauled feveral couple without having token, as it is firmly believed, holy orders.
