Aftuated by these conCderations, many

Thus encouraged by the snuntenance and

A gentleman Editor, lately finding the lu
minous lucubrations of his clafiica! corrci-.
pendents, fliowering upon him, in more tlwii
usual redundancy, haftensbya Notatory in
timation, to inform them, that he will at an
early day accommodate iheir pieces With a
place in the Gazette. Now this, pardie, is
the very quintefience of Sbakspearcanism :
videlicet; Accommodate, as I learn, is a
fcholar.lik' word, of exceeding great pro
priety. Accommodate ! It comes t'om tic
commcder: that is, when a man's piece is as
they fay, accommodated ; or when it is—
being—whereby it may be thought to be ac
commodated ; which is an eUceellcnt thing.
In Boston is advertised " the Stock of a
Gentleman declining yade." Why this is
right. 'The more the different orders of
fosiety are confounded, the more is promoted
the cftablifhment of what #btains now-a-days
as Republicanism.
Garrick, remarks in on« of his Dramatic
piece;, that even in England, " wotxrn of
quality, *iuL#u»tn£ii of jioquality»and women
of »11 qualities, are so mixed together, that
you don't know one from t'other, and all are
called Madams."
The whole troop of Aftreffes at Covert
Garden lately mutinied, on account of one
of the Cyprian corps having been introduced
on the Boards. Chastity tnuft surely have
attained its highest climax,in England, when
even this tribe display faftidioufnefs at such
a eirciinnlance.
The papers acquaint us with the impor
tant faft, th;it ThonaS Painter, and Noah
Webfler, Esquires, are elf fled into tie Pro
vincial Parliament of Coimefiicut, for the
Borough of New Haven. The advance
ment of the former of these ptrfons to an
iliultrious Ration is matter cf great public
interest; since the mark of ronfidcratipn be
flowed cn a man, who so highly diiUnguifh
ed himfelf as a peflilential writer, and cob
bler of language, mud be regarded as an in
crement to the publx stock of diflributive
justice. Bur why the name cf the latter
lhould be sdded, it is difficult to conje&ure ;
unlrfj'w impute it -to fame hard-hearted
fellow, whn, envious of thefanieof our pes
tilential man, has fought to obfeure the lus
tre of his advancement, by'coupling with
his diftinguithed name, that of probably
some obfcuie village Peasant.

iaptain, mfie, and all hands out of her ex
cept a black n.an, named JHfaies ; (who is

the cabin, or as they were coming out of
it, and threw them also overboard :b« then
took the command of the reflel, a oil put
her head to the northward to bring h«r
