The room is always so diverted with songs, and drinking from one table to another to one another’s healths, that there is no room for politics, or any thing that can sour conversation.

One must be there by seven to get room, and after ten the company are for the most part gone.

This is a winter’s amusement, that is agreeable enough to a stranger for once or twice, and he is well diverted with the different humours, when the Mugs overflow.

JOY AND SORROW.

  The light of heaven unheeded shines,
    If cloudless be our skies;
  But when it beams on life’s dark clouds,
    What rainbow beauties rise!

Lit.  Gaz.

INSCRIBED ON A CLOCK.

  Improve time in time while time lasts,
  For all time’s no time when time’s past.
