and there is no thing more required to make a young wo man the object of envy and hatred than to deserve love and admiratiou this abominable endeavour to suppress or lessen every thing that is praiseworthy is as frequent among the ifieo as the wo men if i can remember what passed last night it will serve as an instance that the sexes are equally iuclined to defamation with equal malice and impotence jack triplett came into my lady airy about eight of the clock introduced by two tapers supported by aspruce servant whose hair is under a cap till my ladys caudles aro all lighted up and the hour of ceremony begins i say jack triplet came and singing every feature charming crea ture ho went oo it is a most unrea sonable thing that people cannot go peace ably to see their friends but those murder ers are let loose such a shape such an air what a glance was that as her chariot passed miae my lady herself interrupt ed him pray who is this fine thing i warrant says another m tis the

height a modest air a virgin shame an impati- ence of being beheld amidst a blaze of ten stbousand charms the whole room flew our u oh mr triplett when miss lof ty a known prude said she believed she knew whom the gentleman meant hut she was indeed as he civilly represented her impatient of being beheld then turning to the lady next her the most unbred crea ture you ever saw another pursued the discourse as unbred as you may think her madam she is extremely belied if she is tho novice sho appears she was last week at a ball till two io the morning mr trijiictt knows whether he was the happy man that took care of her home hut this was followed by some particular ex- teeptiou that each woman in the room made to some peculiar graco or advantage so thai air triplett was beaten from one limb and feature to another till he was forced to resign the whole woman in the end i took notice triplett recorded all hi mtftiee in his heart and saw in his countenance and a certain waggish djrug that he designed to repeat the conversa tion i therefore let the discourse die and 6on after took an occasion to commend a certain gentlemen of my acquaintance for a person of singular modesty courage and withalas a man of an entertaining convor- sation to which advantages he had a shape tod manner peculiarly graceful mr triplett who is a womans man seemed to hear me with patience enough com mend the qualities of his mind ho never neardindeed but that he was a very honest man and no fool but for a fine gentle man he must beg pardon upon no other foundation than this mr triplett took occasion to give the gentlemans pedigree by what methods some part of the estate was acquired how much it was beholden to a marriage for tho present circumstan ces of it after all he could see nothing but acommon man in bis person hisbreeding or understanding- thus this impertinent humour of dimi nishing every one who is produced to con- thc proceedings has been handed us secretary a general meeting of the
