flatter her by calling it a pretty one, be- ing too thinly formed to constitute beau- ty, and too much pitted with the small pox to be stiled handsome; still she commands

commands a beautiful pair of dark eyes, which give a most pleasing, amorous expression to her whole countenance, and makes her, tho' not a pretty, still a very desirable girl; she possesses a lively and entertaining manner, with an affable dis- position, and refined, delicate sentiments, which has lately been much been abused by the brutality of her late keeper, Mr. K--d, well known at Garraway's cof- fee house, for the lowness of his birth, and still greater meanness of his senti- ments. He was some time since a corn- factor, but has now relinquished that, and nOw all his business, delight, and employment, seems to be that of perse- cuting Mrs. W----. In the course of last summer he arrested her for the pal- try sum a of twenty-five pounds, which, from the natural consequences of not paying immediately, amounted to sixty pounds, and upwards. Indeed, could the Whole conduct of this old r--l be summed up, it would be impossible to describe his cruelty to Mrs. W. which proceeds merely from his resolution not to live with a wretch, whose cruelty, and her own disposition, obliges her to despise. It is from such kind of usage as this that has taught Mrs. W. prudence and

and discretion in all her engagements with the men, nor will she ever admit a visitor to take any liberties, without first knowing the value he fits on her com- pany; and from the appearance which her present keeper enables her to make, she expects to be something consider- able.

Mrs. Sp--nc--r, No. 35, _Newman- Street, Oxford-Road_.
Wine whets the wit, improves its native force, And gives a pleasant flavour to discourse.
This is fully verified in Mrs. S. who is never so good a companion as when a _little_ enlivened with the juice of the grape but, always guided by prudence and dis- cretion, she never goes so far as to render herself the least unpleasant. Her figure is tall, elegant and stately.
Her full orb'd chest lie open to the gale, And teach the lily whiteness in the vale.
Her legs and feet are particularly neat and clean; she sings a good song, is a very good friend to mirth and good hu- mour, and always steers clear of vulga- rity.

rity. She is now in her twentieth year, possessed of every charm that encourag- ing. age can boast, and but a very few months has left Hampshire; we therefore think two guineas bestowed upon her cannot be regretted.
