SELECTED FOR THE REGISTER NO FICTION When James the II. abdicated the crown, Lord D -, -who was strongly attached to that monarch, determined to share his for tunes, and became a voluntary -exiTe from his native country with an amiable wife and a numerous family of children, consisting of one son, the heir of his titles and estate, with five daughters for whom a taste for the reign in? pleasures of the a?e. and a close atten dance on the court, prevented his making the provision to which their lire entitled them. His lady solicitgd hiV return with the energy of conjugal affection: she represented to him theiecessity there was for inspecting -his affairs, as his sou was yet a minor, and the infirm state of her .own health made it too probable they would very speedily need his assistance to guide'them through a world be set with many dangers to inexperienced youth Nature had been liberal in her gifts to this nobleman; she had endowed him with true courage, a strict sense of honor and very ten der feelings. The first of these qualities had led him to defend the unfortunate king as long as his bravery could be of service ; and the high notions he held of honor, pre vented his deserting him, when regard to his own interests would! have dictated such a step as highly prudent. The just idea he had of what was due to a deserving wife, .and such a numerous offspring, occasioned manv stnitnrtea in his hreast. and at lenath lie determined! to nuit a cause in which he could no longer be useful, in order to retrieve his own affairs, which he was but too sen sible were in at very unpromising state. He quitted the rinfortunate Tiing" vrilh assur rances that his s wordHand fortune were at his devotion whenever his -affairs required the assistance of either," and returned to his seat , where lua laJy had informed him she was retired.- To hi great concern, he found her in a slate that threatened but a short continuance in life. She was surroun s. . ded by her children, whose innocent prattle c r V , , - 'I'V served to amuse the hour of solitude.

The ser- vant announced his entrance ; which, indeed was necessary for he stumbled 111 wim as little ceremony as if he had been entering the cottage of a ploughman, made an awkward bow, and then twirled his dusty hat.

My happily and advantageously disposed of, but Lord, willing to indulge the rustic humorist, iu a very short time bestowed the other fojtf ordered them to be called. The servant had whispered the oddity of the visitant, and the ladies entered the room with high diversion. TL Ml . . . . me miner surveyed each with an attention that excited their curiosity ; and after ex pressing his approbation of their persons and behaviour in a manner trulv laughable. threw his hat, as if partly by accident, at the yo.ungest, saying, That is the lass for me.' After which, wilh many apologies for his boldness, he withdrew, with an air less rus tical, than that with which he entered. The scene afforded matter of conversation amongst the ladies. The youngest, who had been distinguished by the miller, received the ironical congratulations of her sisters with great good humour, and my Lord some times joined the mirth. About a month after the servant of the Earl of L presented his Lord s complin. ents ai.d intention of wait ing on him that morning. As Lord D had held no intercourse with the nobleman, lie was rather surprised at the message, but returned a polite answer ; telling his daugh- ters that as it would be near the dinner hour before the Earl would take his leave, if they could provide a genteel entertainment, he would press his stay. The ladies replied, they would try their best; and towards noon the Earl, with a splendid equipage, but small retinue, arrived. He accepted, with appa rent pleasure, Lord D -s invitation to dinner ; and at the repast seldom withdrew IUI eJe rofu me loveiy oopnia, tne joung- esl of ladies. After dinner, when they were withdrawn, ' My Lord (says the Earl) if not disagresable .to you, I should esteem myself supremely happy to gain the heart of Miss Sophia; she has beauty, without seem mg conscious of it : but that is the least of her charms, since, if I am not deceived, her heart is a stranger to pride and coquetry .-r-I know the education you have given your daughters to be such, as will render them ra tional companions to men who have a higher relish for sentimental pleasures, than those lhat are in lhis ae pursued with avidity by me young oi Dotn sexes, oi every rails. Have I your consent to endeavour to render myself agreeable to that amiable lady ?' A proposal of this kind, from person of the Earl's character, rank and fortune, could not fail to be highly pleasing to Xord D rho replied, 4I am truly sensible of the hon- or done me by this proposal, and flatter my 8elf that your Lordship is not deceived in Uhe opinion you form of my daughter ; but it is necessary to inform you, that the injury my fortune suffered by so long absenting my- lf frro-my-tniivA.

Carolina, near the rond crossing Broad River at Quinn's Ferry, upon a beautiful level Ridge, free from mud, and only osz mile and a half from Wilson's SULPHUR SPRINGS! The Subscribeis are sure, that to those persons de sirous of procuring an agreeable and healthy residence, no place could present greater advantages. The situ ation is high, dry, and healthy. It is well watered, near Broad hiver, and a thick settled neighborhood, There are a large number of Saw Mills near, and eve- ry otner convenience lor building, and W ilson b Sfrixbs only fifteen minutes ride distant. Nothing is necessary to be said of the character of these Springs. They are regarded as being inferior to none in the Southern country, and hundreds of invalids can attest their healing properties. Within a hundred yards of the Wilson's White Sulphur Springs, there is a red Sulphur, and a Chalybeate Spring, and there are seve ral other Sulphur Springs in the immediate neighbor hood of Shelby, though none equal to Wilson's for medical properties.
