Ii short Biographies and hnccdo,eis
pye deem'd it not amiss to note,


Some pleasing trait or incident TO strike,
New light on characters we know, or like.
OF Heroes, Statesmen, Phiosophic Sages,
Who flourish now,. or lived in former ages
Of foreign news, my papers had its share
And articles ofinterest, failed not TO declare
Told Of Old England's deep and dark distress,
That on her toiIing sons 50 heavy press
Fal'd not my worthy PATRoSs, to disclose
Her manufacturers and merchants woes;
And while you read, hope you feel their gllcf,
And wishd them from distress, quick rchcf.

Hopes that sympathizing arm will save,
