Price 75 cents. [The rapid fale'of the firft edition of this 1

its mer it.]
EXTRACT TROM THE CRITICAL REVIEW, APRIL I 791, p. 4&S.
" It may be a tale of truth, for it is not unnatural, and
it is a tale of real diftrefs—Cjurlorte, by the ajtifice of a
teacher, recommended to a school, from humanity ra
ther than a eonvi&ion of her integrity, or the regularity, i
of her former conduit, is enticed from her govern'fs, and
accompanies a soung officer to America—the marriage
ceremony, if not forgotten, is postponed, and Charlotte
dies a martyr to the inconstancy of her lover and treach
ery of his friend.
The situations are artless and affe&ing—the description
natural and pathetic ; we Ihc-ald feel for Charlotte if such a
person ever existed, who for one error, scarcely, perhaps
deserved so severe a puftilhment. If it is a fiction, poetic
juflice is not, v e think, properly diftributad."
