‘ The father of Mrs. Maitland, was a Captain
Rivington, who had more than once distinguished
himself in the great contest which secured the
independence ofour highly favored country. On
the happy termination ofthc war, he settled in
Petitville ; where, four years before, he had been
united in marriage to a young lady of respecta-
ble connexions. The result ofthis union was
many years conjugal felicity, which was only in-
terrupted by his falling a victim to that fell de-
stroyer of human hopes, the small pox ; for so‘,
at that period, was justly considered a disease
since stripped of all its terrors by the discovery
ol Dr. Jenner.

‘ By the death of Capt. Rivington, five i:laugh-
ters were left with no means of support but the
industry nfthcir widowed mother. It was, there-
fore, not to be expected that their education would
be commensurate with that motlterls \VlSl1i.‘S.--_
Their first lesson was, of course, the exercise of
the needle ; by the assidious application of wltich,
this family of unprotected females was enabled to
secure the necessaries, but not the comforts of
life. As they grew up, the twoeldesr were suc-
cessively married to respectable and industrious
mechanics, whose expectations being moderate
as those of their conjugal partners, were fully att-
swered by tlte fruits of their mutual industry and
economy. The third was united to a man oflet-
ters, who possessed no other implement oftrade
than a goose quill, and no other capital than his
brains. But though a large family, and little in-
come were the conseqttences of such an union, at
more pleasing instance of conjugal felicity has
never fallen under my 0l')S€l‘\a[l0n_

I ‘ The three I have menrioncd were comely girls
but possessed no vsxtraordinat-y p'.31‘tlun of person-
al beauty, 'l‘h__e fourth was an exception to this
1‘€—'m'd|‘l< 3 flit‘ lihsthei‘ Rivingtou. under more aus-
picious cii'cunistances,might hate been the reign-
ing belle and general toast of a more populous
place than Peiitvillci I allude to her persoit on-
ly ; for, like her sisters, her mind had received
but little cttltivatiott. She possessed a pretty
face and an elegattt form; and by more frequent-
ly consulting her lotrkitttyglass than her Bible,
be-came fully sensible of this important fact.—
V\"ith such attractions. sht: cottld not think of a
~fai'mtr or ofa mt-ch.tuic for a husband, without
sickening at an idea so degratlitig; and although
she had several fhttterittg offers from those class-
es of her ztcqttaiittattce, her views were too eleva-
ted to perceive the merits of the candidatcs,whom
she discarded wlll‘lOll‘. ceremony.

‘ At this period. Col. Maitland became an in-
habitant of tbevillttgc. He had recently buried
a wife. who left him two spoiler] children, (a girl
and a boy) to protect and educate. The Colonel
had already attained the full meridian of life, and
bore on his weatlier-beaten iisage, many an lion-
orable scar received in the rt.volutionat‘y war.——
But he was rich in iveaitlt, anti gcnztous in dis-
pensing it; ui_i_1;t.:;'ietliti lll‘~ (‘l(‘T‘-‘.-“I‘ll'lm‘, but still
'.ri’fable and good-htrniorcd ; f:'.ttrl~'. open and free
in his manners, and art ardent 2.ltltlill't:l' of female
beauty. lfe ntaric lishcr an offer of his hand
and f.-rtune ;' and with her notions of happiness:
you need not be surprised that the offer was read-
ily accepted. ln--ed u't'. a'lLl that both were dis-
appointed in the f<;ilclly they :m'icip.tted.

* Esthtzr Vlfils not quit.--r sixteen, the Colonel
more than forty. Love. of course, was out of the
question; unless that be termed love which was
mere childish dotage on tl'r‘t1-lltl side, and childish
petultutcc and czipri-..e on the other. The Colo-
nel hat‘. eicr l'li‘1]iI".il)l_\ at quittetl hititself as the
comtrt-.intl«:r' of a regiment ; but as the comman-
ler ofthis ire " r‘cc.i‘ui.‘, he fotttid liimsclf. alas!

er; which could littVi.‘ r aft.-t-u'at‘(ls be recovered-—
He tttzttla a few fa-cble efforts, and then gave up
the point in despair.

ered hcr mist:-ike when it was too late to rectify‘
it. This reflection was a praying Vltltutc in her
bosom ; and her naturally petulant temper, be-
came sottzetl, peerish, and iino'ir:tive. She cast
her eyes around her for consolutim ; but on ev-
ery sitlc the prospect was checilcss, dark and
hopeless. The world had no charm which Silt;
could now t:1'rj0',an(l she turned her face from it

Youthful Herozlrm.--On Monday‘ last. as Rufus
Gregory, eldest son of Samuel Gregory, Esq. of
this town, aged about thirteen years, was out in
the fields shooting squirrels, he S§.1\V a Bear not
far off, making directly for him. As his gun was
only loaded iiith small squirrel_ shot, to fire ht it
with them would have little or no effect, instead
of quickly leaving the ground, as would naiurally
be expected from one of his age, he drew from
his pocket some rifle balls, and instantly put them
in his musket, and before the bear had reached
him, he levelled his piece at, and shot him to the
lteat't.——1llontri:‘-.s.e Gazette, May 20.

Rat‘ Carcftinjg-.-~Yestct'day afternoon. a friend
brought to this trflice in a segar box, a Raz, nearly
full grown, in custody of a 11/Iuecle ; which he had
just discovered by his cries, under his store, at the
head of Gadsden’s wharf. It was caught by the
toes of one of its feet, and when brought to this
office, was quite worn down with fatigue in his
endeavors to extricate himself from his cm-my,
who held on upon him with the most unrelenting
pertinztcity ; utterly rs-gat'dless of his ‘cries for
liberation, which would liave moved the heart of
any thing, except an Oyster or a Muscle.

A most t'emarkable circumstance occurre'd at
Morant Bay, Jamaica, on the loth of April; The
boat of the ship VVaterloo, was lying alongside,
with three boys itt it, when a shark, supposed to
have been impelled by hunger, sprung at the boys
into the boat, with such violence as to stave in one
of the planks. He was taken on board the ship.

]€g'-yz"u:z:’8 of Rcrlz'gz'on.--A correspoiidcitt has in-
formed us, that the town of Hardi.vick. in \Vor-
cester .co.Mass. had for the several last months,
been visited by the Holy tspitit, in his convincing
and i'etieiving ittflucnces. He witnessed the pro-
fession of more thaztfifzy, who, on the Lord's day,
May 14th, declarecl publicly, that they were not
ashamed of Jesus; and he heard the Rev. Pastor‘
inform his people, that during the present revi-
val one lzundrrd had subscribed to the Lord ; and,
that more proposed to do lilzeiiise at the next

In lrlallowell, zlaine, between 63 and 70 have
lately professed religion in the dill‘;-t'ettt churchjes.

In Ltidlow, Vermont, an uncommon attention
to religion is manifested; on the 14th May, 4|
were added to the church ; and in Plymouth, a-
bout 20 were added in a few weeks. _

There have been powerful revivals in Hartford,
Vernon, Kinsman, and Gustavus, in Aslttabtila
county, Ohio. These towtts are under the pas-
toral charge of the Rev. Hurvy Coe, and there are
about 200 hopeful C0m'ct'ts- There have also been
considerable revivals in '\Varren,, Howland, \'Vest-
(1,-id, B;;u‘z,cIta, Vi-entia, Jolinson, and \Vayne.—
Among; those who have been brought to bow to
the scieptrc of the Lord Jestts, aicseveral wlto
were lately infidels, drunkards. and other vicious
clmr'actei's. The work is still going on.

A revival has lately commenced in Nassau, N.
Y. About 70 are are alreatl’_.' hoping that they
ltave passed from death’ unto life. And in Ca-
matr, 22 were added to the church on the first
Sabbath in May. The work still continues. and
tltcrc were hopeful appcarar-ces, in the ticljttcent
towns, In Marlborougli, 115 have joined the
chutch witltitt two months. The good work of
God, which commenced in Pleasant Valley, last
September, cottritiuetl for some time; 81 have
been receivcd into the Church. The work spt ead
into llackensack, P0llgl‘llCCCP5lei and "'V0lll’ll'l‘
get-’s Creek; and many are now rejoicing in the
mercy of a sin-pardoning God.

1§,;_tr-dc: of a letter from a gentleman. in l‘/lilton,

Sarattoga county, N. Y. dated Elarcli 25: 1320-

‘ 1 will here relate one simple f-.tct,wl.ich I thittk
worthy of notice. In Galway, the reformation
commenced in a o‘istrict school. The teaclter
dismissed his school at noon, and the scholars. in-
stead of returnitrg to llicll‘ plays, one and all took
their testtiments and read them.’ V.‘ hen the
teacher returned, he requested them to put aside
their tesiamcnts and resume tlieitj s1u(li_€‘S; bill
say ‘hey, we cannot ; we are comrnatidcd to read
the bible—-we find such iiistructiott here as we
cannot find clsew here. He ilierefore had_ to sub-
mit to them. This was the begitiiiitig of a pow-
erful reformation in that place. ‘ It is now diffi-
cult to find a house to contain all that convene at
ancvening meeting. Let the atheist or the dc-
ist who shuts his heart against all truth, go to
Malta, to Stillwater, to Ballston, or to G-alivay,aud
l~..t the child of twelve, or of eight, or even of six
years old, confound him by a simple tale of truth‘,
fouttded on ca:/zcrience.’--It’r:lz'gi02-'8 R¢’/1°7'“”'-

Floating Cfzafzrl.-—-The floating chapel in the
Thames appears to grow in the affections of the
sailors. The novelty of a floating chapel having
subsidecl, the people from the shore do not 3P‘
pear on boat-ti as formerly; but the ttumbeuof
Sailors, for whom the chapel was intended, in-
creases to replace them. On the last Sunday

moriifng, the congregatiron consisted of 500,- 600
sailors, and 2 or 300 in the afternoon. ouch a

scene is as admir::.ble as it is novel, -and while
there continues to be such attendance on’ the pub-
lie service of God,there cannot but be good ground

‘to expect important and bent ficial consequences

to seamen, and to society generally.
