A Necessity is laid upon us, to be industrious and frugal, and Woe be unto us, if we are extravagant.
PHILADELPHIA, November 19.
We hear from Burlington, that the new constructed light travelling Waggon, contrived by RICHARD WELLS, Esq; on a full Trial last Week, was found to answer its Design, to great Exactness. Among other Improvements, his invention to discharge the Horses, in case of their run- ning away, is particularly worth Attention. This is done, at the Expence of about a Pistole, by the Riders (in the Inside of the Carriage) only pulling a String, when the Horses go off, and leave the Carriage standing. An In- vention that bids fair to be of great Use and Safety to those who ride in close Carriages.
To be SOLD, by public vendue, on the 3d day of Decem- ber next, at the dwelling-house of Gabriel Davis, in the township and county of Gloucester, at 10 o'clock in the forenoon of said day, horses, cows and hogs, waggons, plows, harrows, sundry feather beds, chest of drawers, and divers other articles of houshold goods, too tedious to mention.

Yesterday Se'nnight, about Eight o'Clock at Night, as James Bright was coming up to Town from Raccoon- Creek, in a Wood Flat, the Wind blowing very hard, he was obliged to come to Anchor on the Jersey Side, about three Miles above Chester, and soon afterwards his Flat filled and overset, by which unhappy Accident two Men were drowned; Mr. Bright got on her Side, where he continued till next Morning, when he was taken off by a Boat from the Shore. The Persons drowned were James Cole and John Connor.

Mr. GODDARD,
OBSERVING that you devote a Corner of your entertain- ing CHRONICLE to the Muses, I requested an ingenious young Gentleman of my Acquaintance, who sometimes pays his Devoirs at their Shrine, to furnish you with some of his poetical Performances, not doubting they would
496
NEW JERSEY COLONIAL DOCUMENTS [1767
prove as agreeable to many of your Readers as they had done to such of his Friends as had been favoured with the Perusal of them in private. He has great Diffidence of his Talents for Versification, and it was therefore not without some Reluctance that he consented to the Publi- cation of the Piece I send you enclosed. This must plead his Excuse, if any should be thought necessary; but I am inclined to think that those who are best acquainted with the Works of Anacreon, will find this Translation of his third Ode no ways deficient in that happy Ease and Sprightliness which so remarkably characterise the Orig- inal.
I am, Sir, yours, &c.

A TRANSLATION of the third ODE of ANACREON.
When sable Night, slow-wending, Had gain'd the middle Sleep, And Silent, all-befriending, Had lull'd Mankind asleep; When Love alone was waking, A Knocking shook my Gate: I starting cry'd, what raking Mad Fellow calls so late ?
"Pray tarry not an Instant, "Nor fear to let me in; "I am a helpless Infant, "Wet dripping to the Skin. "The Night so dark and chilly ! "It never will be Day! "And I, so young and silly, "Alas, have lost my Way !"
In Haste, to light a Candle And let him in, I rose, With Pity prompt to dandle And lull him to Repose. I open'd, and admitted A Boy indeed, but lo ! found the Urchin fitted With Quiver, Wings and Bow.

But what Alarm of Danger Cou'd such an Elf inspire ? I plac'd the little Stranger Before a blazing Fire; And, near the Fairy seated, With hospitable Care
His Hands in mine 1 heated, And wrung his dripping Hair.
But he no sooner found him Recover'd from the Cold,
Than, looking slily round him, "Kind Sir, I'll be so bold "To make a Trial whether "(Alas I fear to know !) "This dismal rainy Weather
"Has hurt my little Bow ?"' He said, and shot an Arrow, With such unerring Aim, That through my very Marrow Its Venom spread a Flame. The Traitor, who had acted So well the harmless Boy,
Now laugh'd like one distracted, And cried, "O give me Joy !
"My Bow retains a Fitness "An Arrow still to dart;
"You'll find the Wound a Witness "That rankles at your Heart."
One Day last Week a Hog that weighs upwards of 850 lb. was brought to Town, alive, from New-Jersey. Those who have seen him think he is the largest Creature of the Kind ever raised in America.

the Sunday before, had been up our Bay as far as the Brandywine, and come to Anchor, but a hard North- wester coming on, his Vessel struck several Times, beat off her Rudder, stove in the Counter, and after losing her Boat, and both Anchors, was drove out to Sea full of Water, but being loaded with Cedar, it kept her from sink- ing. - - - Captain Cook took the People on board, with her Provisions, Water &c. and towed the Sloop several Hours, till he put a Pilot on board her, together with the People, and the Weather being moderate, he left them a few Miles from Cape-May, standing in for a Harbour.
Captain Callender, from St. Kitts, on the 20th ult. about 40 Leagues from our Capes, spoke the Snow King George, Captain Potts, of and from this Port for Alex- andria, out 24 Hours, all well. On the 22d Captain Cal- lender came to Anchor on the lower Part of the Brown, when a hard Gale of Wind came on at N. W. in which the Vessel drove till she was between three and four Leagues without the Cape, where she brought up, and rid out the Gale, without any Damage.

BENJAMIN SWETT, jun.
WHEREAS Mr. Jacob Scroggin, of Alloway's Creek, New-Jersey, hath endeavoured, in the CHRONICLE, No. 44, by a Misrepresentation of Facts and false Assertions, to injure my Character, Justice to myself demands this public Reply.
I sold Mr. Scroggin a Negro Boy, for £. 55, and agreed to take his Bond for the Money .- But hearing that he was a contentious Man, I determined to have the Bargain made in a Manner the most authentic and unexception- able. Accordingly on the 3Ist of October, when he came to receive the Boy, and execute the Bond, I desired him to step with me to the House of Mr. Roger Sherron, in Salem, and took the Boy along with us. When there, calling Mr. Sherron to witness, I said, I sell you this Boy as I bought him-There he is, examine him; and if you have any Objection to him, you may now refuse him; for if you now take him, I will never more be answerable for any Thing that may happen to him; I sell him with all his Faults. Scroggin then said, Are his Legs sound? My Answer was, I know nothing to the contrary: Whereupon he stript down the Boy's Stockings, and said, I like the Boy and will have him .- The Bill of Sale and Bond were then executed, and Scroggin took the Boy away. Of this Mr. Sherron is ready to make Affidavit .- Seven Days after, Scroggin complained the Boy had Fits, and said he would return him. - - - In order to relieve the Boy from an inhuman Master, to whom I had ignorantly sold him, I offered to take him back and cancel the Bond, on Condition he would compensate to me the Loss I must in- evitably sustain in a second Sale, by his being returned
502
NEW JERSEY COLONIAL DOCUMENTS [1767
with such a Character, for which I did not believe there was any Foundation. And though he rejected this equi- table Proposition, and knew I would accept of the Boy on no other Terms, lie sent him to my House the following Evening, about Nine o'Clock, when he knew I was from Home, by a Person unknown to any of my Family, who left the Boy, and immediately went away. And as the said Scroggin did neither come with the said Boy, nor has since been at my House, he is hereby informed, that unless he either takes the Boy away, or complies with my reason- able Proposal, he may depend upon having his Bond put in Suit as the Law directs.
JOHN HATTON.
N. B. Mr. Hartly, from whom I purchased the Boy, is ready to declare that he was not subject to Fits during the two Years he kept him; and since he was in my Pos- session, which is five Months, he has not to my Knowl- edge been troubled with Fits. The only Reason I can assign for Scroggin's wanting to return the Boy is, that he is more awkward and less cleanly than he expected.

We hear a small Sloop be- longing to Amboy, John Hampton, Master, was overset in the Storm on the 17th of October last, off Chingoteague in Virginia, the Mast, Sails and Rigging, all carried away, and one Man drowned. The Rest continued on the Wreck a considerable Time, till she drove ashore, in Accomack County; the Master has since returned home, and it is doubtful whether the Vessel will be ever got off.

Nere-York, December 10. On Wednesday the 23d of November, at his House in Elizabeth-Town, New-Jersey, died Sir JOHN ST. CLAIR, Baronet, Col. of his Majestys Regiment, and Quarter-Master-General of the Army in North-America, in which Station he has acted for 13 Years, with great Honour and Integrity. His Death was occasioned by a Wound he received thro' the Lungs, on the Banks of the Monongahala, in July 1755, at Braddock's unfortunate Defeat, of which Wound he never recovered. He was between 50 and 60 Years of Age, and has been near 40 Years in his Majesty's Service. He acted on all Occasions with a firmness of Spirit, Resig- nation and Dignity becoming his Profession and Charac- ter. His Remains were enter'd on Saturday the 26th, with all Military Honours. His Excellency General Gage, accompanied by the Gentlemen of his Suite from Head- Quarters, and the Officers from the adjacent Garrisons in New-York and New-Jersey, attended the Solemnity.
His only Son, now Sir John St. Clair, succeeds to his Title and Estate. 1
