" It, may be a t..!-: ct truth, for it is not unnatural, and it is a tale of real distress—Charlotte, by the ajtitice of j teacher, recommended to a school, from humanity ra- ther ttu:i a conviction of her integrity, or the regularity, of hev former conduct, is enticed from her governess, and accompanies a young officer to America—the marriage ceremony, if not forgotten, is pollponcd, and Charlotte dies a martyr to the iucocUancy of her lover and treach ery of his friend. The fituaticns are artless and aficiting—.the description natural and pathetic ; we Ihorald feel for Charlotte if such a peifonevcr exitted, who for one error, scarcely, perhaps delerved fofeverea punishment.
