THE great success which attended most of those who employed themselves in breeding silk worms raising Cocoons the last year, and the excellent quality of the Silk reeled at the Filature, having given the greatest reason to hope that the design set on foot for promoting the Culture of Silk in this part of America, will answer the most Sanguine expectations of those who have so generously subscribed thereto, and prove a valuable addition to our staple commod- ities ; the Managers of the Filature therefore now give notice, that in order further to encourage such as chuse to employ part of their time in this profitable and laudable undertaking, the following PREMIUMS are proposed for the ensuing season, viz.


1. To that Person in either of the provinces of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, or the three lower counties on Delaware, who shall raise within his or her family, and sell at the Filature at Philadel- phia, or bring to be reeled for his or her own use, the greatest quantity of sound Cocoons, not less than Fifty Thousand, the Premium of TWENTY POUNDS.

To the PRINTER of the PENNSYLVANIA | CHRON- ICLE.


Please to give the following lines a conveyance, through your impartial press, to the ingenious CLEORA.


HOWEVER the conduct of some, and impiety of others, may have rendered the institution of marri- age a subject of ridicule to the licentious, the volatile and witty ; yet I have the assurance to appear, in this reformed age, so impolite, as to become an advocate for that happiness, which is confined within the bands of wedlock, and humbly conceive it, not only a pol- itical advantage, but when attended with prudence and discretion, a peculiar blessing to society in gen- eral ; and therefore should be pleased, if those who are capable of delivering their sentiments with spirit and accuracy, would endeavour to remove those dis- couragements which the imprudencies of both sexes too justly occasion ; and teach mankind, that by giv- ing up part of the follies predominant in youth, con- descending to some of the failures inseparable from human nature, and uniting in a sincere desire of en- gaging each other's affections, the thorny path of life may be made much more delightful-and that rest- less impatience, and peevish fretfulness, so obvious in the behaviour of antiquated Bachelors and Maidens prevented or removed.


The conduct of too many unmarried people of every class, is so far from rendering a union desirable, that they are more justly obnoxious to the complaints and even detestation of the rational part of mankind, "is too evidently supported by the stubborn testimonies of truth to admit even of a doubt" as the Kensington

Bachelor expresses it, though he is so favourable to his own dear sex, as to pass over their faults without notice, even while he carefully cautions his fair read- ers, not "to arrogate" to themselves a merit, which in truth neither are justly intitled to.


But while, with concern, the unprejudiced observe, and censure the foibles of the human species, without distinction of sexes ; it appears far more noble, in my humble apprehension, to correct our own sex, either by keen satyre or gentle precept ; and then we might more reasonably hope, that the pliant and tendre minds of the fair, would receive instruction by ex- ample-for however the delinquents may be con- vinced, by the powerful reasoning of the Bachelor and his fair opposer, of the justness of their com- plaints, yet those evil propensities seem rather irrit- ated by the profusion of acrimony, than healed by the emolient balsam of their compositions.


And though my want of penetration, sufficient to enter into the merits of "the cause," may prevent that amiable reconciliation, which is agreeable to my anxious desires, as the amiable fair has sufficiently demonstrated, that with the superlative beauties of her mind, when (divested of that warmth of resent- - ment, which is justly displayed with spirit and sensi- bility, against those savage monsters or in her more emphatical terms, "obdurate race of infidels," whose senseless stupidity occasions the long confinement of numbers, with herself, in those unjust and narrow. bounds, which tyrant custom hath circumscribed for the purity of virgin innocence by being) happily united with a man of sentiment and discretion, she

might contribute to the felicity of the present age, as well as increase the number and improve the minds of the succeeding generation.


And notwithstanding the attention of the public may already have been too much "trespassed upon," unless there were more probability of their advant- age; yet should those essays fail of administering to their entertainment or improvement, as examples are of greater weight and influence than the most excel- lent precepts, I would hope, that although the Ken- sington Bachelor's performance, has unhappily made very little impression in his favour, on the heart of the amiable Cleora, her breast may not be quite im- penetrable, to the more mild attempts of her humble admirer,
