v. i 5' II fj Mr. HALL, Your giving a Place in your Paper to the following Extract frem HmvEY'i Winter Piece, which is well adapted to the prefent Circumftances of many, who, in this fevere Seafon, cry aloud for Relief, and it is hopedi may have a good Effect on the Minds of the Rich and Affluent, will oblige a Number of your Tit feverely'cold Who is fo hardy, as not to (hrink at this "exceflively pinching Weather See every Face is pale. Even the blooming Cheeks contract a gelid Hue i and the Teeth hardly forbear chattering. Ye that fit cafy and joyous, amiift your com modious.Apartmerits, folacing yourfelves in the diffuiive Warmth of your Fire be mindful of Your Brethren, in the chearlefs Tenement of Poverty.

Their Shattered Panes are open to the piercing Winds a tattered Garment, fcarcely covers their ihiver ing FleiV; while a few faint and dying Embers on the fqualid Hearth, rather mock their Wifhes, than warm their Limbs. While the generous Juices of Oporto fparkle in your Giaffes; or the Streams, beautifully tinged, and delicioufly flavoured with the Chinefe Leaf, fmoak in the elegant Porcelain remember, that many of your Fellow Creatures, amidft all the Rigour of thefe inclement Skies, are' emaciated witn Sicknefs benumbed withAgei and pining with Hunger. Let their Loins blefs for comfortable Cloathing. Reftare them with Medicine regale them with Food and baffle the raging Year. So may you never know any of their Diftrefies, but only by the Hearing of thi Ear the Seeing of the Eye; or the Feeling of a tender Com xniferation Methinks, the bitter Muttering Winds plead for the poor Indigents.

May they breathe Pity into Your Breafts, while they blow Hardhips into their Huts Oburve thofe blue Flames, and ruddy Coals, in your Chimnej Quickened by the Cold, they look more lively, and glow snore ftronglyY Silent, but feafonablc Admonition to the gay Circle, that chat and fmi'e around them! THUsmay your Hearts, at fuch a Juncture of Need, kindle into a peculiar Benevolence Detain not your fu perfiuous Piles of Wood. Let them haften to the Relief of the ftarving Family. Bid them expire in many a'willing Blaze, 10 mitigate the Severity, of the Seafon, and chear the bleak Abodes of Want. So (hall they afcend, mingled with Thankfgivinj'S, to God, and ardent Prayers for your Welfare afcend more grateful to Heaven, than Columns of the moft Incenfe.
