you 4 o that , he would never call you proud again ; and if you would only play with Mary Stone sometimes , and speak a little kinder to Dame Fulton , you can ' t think what a difference it would make . Do , for my sake . I \ yant them to know how kind you are , and I do not think I shall live to tell them . You are not crying" for me , surel y * No ; ' tis for mother . _ God bless you for those tears then . Good bye , Mr . Arnall /
* Arnall looked back once or twice , and then George feebly waved his hand . * As many as were near enough to hear the sad news , Arnall brought to the settlement , followed with those he came to seek . They made all speed ; but the whining of the dogs as soon as they approached , made
them fear that they were too late . It was indeed so , though at the first moment it seemed doubtful whether George was not asleep . One arm was about the neck of his favourite , Rover . The other hand was over his eyes , as if the light had been too much for him . He did not move when the dog was released . He never moved again . '—p . 67—70 .

The Rights of Morality ; an Essay on the Present ' State of Society , Moral , Political ^ and Physicaly in England . By Junius Redivivus . 12 mo . E , Wilson . 1832 . If this be Junius risen from the dead , his sojourn * in the cold grave has not cooled down his temperament . His ardour is the same ; but his principles are improved , and , we are sorry to say , his style impaired . It has lost some of its epigrammatic terseness . Its venomous brevity has given place to a rather declamatory diffuseness . And yet
the style is not a bad style ; nor should we have said a syllable about it , but for the author ' s claim to pre-existence . That claim was not wisely made . Judging him by his book , he is too good a man himself to need the credit of having been another man . Another time let him leave Junius quiet in his grave : his business is with the living , not the dead ; and he has told some truths so unpalatable , that there are those who not only will withhold their assent from him , but who would not admit them * though one should rise from the dead . * Whoever he be , he is a ' fellow of some mark and likelihood . ' He shall introduce
himself : — * I am one of the productive classes ; but in consequence of ill health have been for considerable periods , at different times , a wide wanderer over the earth ' s surface , gleaning knowledge as I best could , both from the civilized man and the savage , and applying it , as far as my reason enabled me , for the purpose of extracting wisdom . The theory and practice of prime costs and estimates have at times given place to the analyzation of the human heart ; and my hand has been as
conversant with the sabre and the bridle-rein , as it has been with pen , ink , and mechanical drawing instruments . I have lived long in lands where a stab with the knife was the price of a blow ; but I have seen the hand which was reddened in the blood of one fellow-creature , freely raised to save the life" of another ; and I remarked , that human nature was not all evil . I found that ignorance entailed misery , and that jnisery feeg ^ t prime . The young wd the buoyant learned the lessons
