this fedive feafon it occafioned a great va riety of remarks tho frequently culpa ble ourfclves we wifh our children to be good but to bring about our own reform- ation in trying to make them virtuous is an advantage which had never occurred to any of us before a maiden aunt confeitcd that fhe had never been very fond of children that flie had frequently wondered how peo ple could be fo patient with quailing brats ad fo foohfhly fcr their amufement and fac- rifice their own eafe vnd happiaefs to tiicreafe their pieafure but die had now learned the fecrct by rendering their children happy parents render themfclves happy she de termined therefore to reform and be as kind to her nephews and nieces as he had form erly been hardi for my own part i look ed upon my five boys and three girls with redoubled aitefflion and my memory furnilh- ed me with many proofs of the truth of your obfervations inftead of making us more felfilh children unquedionably expand our benevolent affections we are frequently kind to others that they may have friends a tender father looks at his family finding around him who will protect them he fays in his heart if i happen to be taken away this induces him to become more focial his heart opens to generous impreflions he fe- les faithful friends and he binds them to hirn by the kinded attentions that his chil dren may not be deilitute if bereaved of their father the fame fentiments pcrfuade him to be the guardian of his friends offspring when it becomes neceftary and to difcharge the duty with the mod fcrupuioiis fidelity the golden rule is before him my chil- airr re ay be in ijz fume filouiibii tfecy may dand in need of that integiity which 1 am at prefent exciting in behalf of thofe help- lefs innocents left by my lamented iriend society is bound together by the rifing gen eration for it counteracts many of thofe for did pa lions which feek only private gratifi cation my temper mr reckoner was harfh and irritable before i had children my wife was too mild and diffident to check it fufficiently her kindnefs and forbearance frequently produced feafons of cbmpundtion but my habitual violence returned i was always repenting of my exceltes and always committing new ones but when my chil dren began to diftipguifu right from wrong i perceived the grofs abfurdity of endeavor ing to teach them the government of their tempers when i could not govern my own this induced me to watch it more carefully and becoming daily more convinced of its impropriety i gradually redrained it till i am now completely mailer my notions of religion were loofe and un- fatifc factory indeed i knew little more than the name but when i began to teach my children to fay their prayers evening and morning this fubjea acquired new import ance it is difhonorable and hypocritical thought i to be teaching wha i do not prac tice to be imprefiing the tender minds of my children with reverence for religion while i difregard it thefe reflections determine ed me to examine its evidences and the te- fult was a firm conviction of its parity and truth several perfons acknowledged that they had reaped advantages of the fame kind they had left off vices and conquered bad habits left their children ihould imitate them one very old man declared that he never began to think ferioufly till his favor ite fon was killed by the accidental fall of a tree i thought of nothing but of riches my avarice increafed every year wheat had been very high i had little to fell which grieved me exceedingly but i refolved to prepare for the next feafon i cleared twice as much ground as ufual and by the fall of the laft tree my fon was killed it appear ed to be a judgment upon me there was no neceffity for my clearing fo much land i had enough 1 was thrown into a new train of thinking my affection for my child con quered my avarice and his death reilored me to my ft if the tears dropped from his eyes as he fpoke and there was filencc for ibme in order to enliven tecbnterfation fome objections to marriage were dated and ex amined in particular litnations feveral of them were allowed to have gieat weight out tew of them applied to a country like this where the means of living is lo much within the power of every honed man people by marrying du not funjecl themfelves to great er difficulties than they feel when eagle but this cannot always be faid in populous countries and in great towns here the in- dudrious man can never want bread for his children he can always keep them comfort able but in 3 count iv ovei hocked with e inhabitants a man by getting a family rifle his independence and his happinefs for hi will be more miserable at feeing his children familhing than if he had remained a bache lor yk e next proceeded to examine the qualifications which the parties ouht to pol- fefs in order to be happy when united but thefe i diall detail in a future letter if yon ihould admit this which is perhaps already too hug but i thought that it would give you pleaiure to know that your paper ena bled us to fpend an evening mod agreeablv which might have been dull and infipid if left to our own refources it gave rile to many animated but friendly debates it rcdoied to our minds the feelings of thofe hippy mo ments when we were fondly anticipating that union of inlereils of fouls which has been productive of lb much felicity it warmed bur hearts towards our children and to one 1 another and we rofe convinced that to be a father or a mother was to lirengtheli the fin er movements of the fou minutes singular

miich lod and fo little honor it was the ctrdbm with every regiment to extend its outpotts to a great dillance beyond the encampments to dation fentinels fome miles in the woods and keep a condant guard rcund the main body a regiment of foot was at this time fta- tioned upon the confines of a boundlefs fa- vannah its particular office was to guard every avenue of approach to the main body the fentinels- whole polls penetrated into the woods were fupplied from the ranks and the fervice of this regiment was thus more hazardous than that of any other its lefs was likewiie great the fentinels were per petually furprifed upon their pods by the in dians and were borne off their dations with out communicating any alarm or being heard of after not a trace was left of the manner in which they had been conveyed away except that on one or two occalions a few drop of blood had appeared upon the leaves which covered the ground many imputed this unaccountable difappea ranee to treachery and fuggefled as an unanfwerable argument that the mtn thus furprifed might at lcaft have fired their roufkets and communicated the alarm to the contiguous pods others who could not be brought to confider it at treachery were conteiiled to receive it as a mydery which time would unravel one morning the fentinels having been rationed a3 ufual over night the guaid went at funrife to relieve a pod which
