PROCLAMATION ..

 To all whom these presents may come,

 greeting:

 Know ye, that whereas it has been repre- sented to us, that several ladies, spinsters, females, maids, girls, unmarried women, t&c. within our dominion, have not only willingness to consent, but even an ar- dent desire to leave the state of ce!ibacy, and to take themselves, or be taken to hus- bands; and whereas it is supposed by many that the bachelors, young and unmarrico men of these our realms do not know who among the maidens, &c. would or would not be SO willing, or so dcsirous to marry, and it seems proper and fitting that the la- ..ies, spinsters, females, maids, girls, and unmarried women as aforesaid, should put on some mark of dies as a token ny which their willingness or desire in the premises should be made particularly known: we have issued this Qua PROCLAMATION, giv- ing leave, ordering, and commanding, that the said ladies, spinsters, females, maids, and unmarried women, may and do make sleeves 10 their dresses in proportion to their desire to bc married. Thus, those who most cxceedingiy desire soon, and cah- not we'll delay the happy hour much long CT, may say so, saving iheir bushes conse- quent on such occasion, by putting, over and above what is necessary for comfort or comelness in their sleeves, seven yards of silk, chintz, calico or other stuff. If they simply desire pretty considerably to be married, they may reduce the quantity to five yards. Ifthey merely wish to be noderateIy understood, as being willing to be respectfully courted, fla lad to suit them shall present himself--they are in that case confined to wearing their sleeves the SEC oi a two busheI bag, or only so large as to hide moderate sized lover.- Vstt0ge 1eec. 4 French Schoolmaster in 175O.--- |" There he is," said one of them as soon as silence could be obtained, pointing to wi,hered old man, who laid on little bed in one corner of the apartment.
