INCOGNITA’S elegant and well-composed EPISTLE, of the 19th instant, has
had all the impression that possibly could be expected: another, with
real name and place of abode, may be safely ventured. An immediate
intercourse is earnestly requested by
LEANDER.

MATRIMONY.--A TRADESMAN, in a pleasant part of London, wishes to meet
with a PARTNER for LIFE. A handsome face is not so much his wish as an
agreeable, prudent Person; a Widow would not be objected to if her age
did not much exceed his own, which is under 30. Some fortune is
expected. A line to A. B., under cover to Mr. Woffington, No. 41,
Lombard-street, post paid, will meet with the strictest honour and
secrecy.

TO M----A M----E. “Forget” you? By Heaven I cannot! Engraven on my soul
is your memory, in deepest characters, which time vainly will endeavour
to efface, contracted as now must be its span, since without one
remonstrance, one expostulation, you can resolve for ever to forget me.
Wherefore, then, often warned, persist in exciting a reluctant, indeed,
but never more unfeigned, sensibility, only to wound it? DO I DESERVE
THIS? Is it generous? Is it equitable? But severe no longer, welcome
now, is the mandate of authority, enjoining oblivion of
ORL----O.

A CARD.--H. J. A. presents his most respectful compliments to the
Catholic Widow Lady, residing near London-bridge, and earnestly requests
a speedy interview. Should this meet the Lady’s, or any of the family’s
eyes, it is for obvious reasons desired that this may meet the attention
which the nearest relationship pleads for. An answer, addressed to the
Blossoms Inn, Lawrence-lane, Cheapside, will be attended to.

IF the YOUTH THAT LEFT ISLINGTON on Sunday evening can remember that he
ever had a Mother, he is informed he will soon be deprived of that
blessing, except he immediately writes with particulars, or personally
appears before her. His friend will redress any circumstance, and settle
every point to his satisfaction.
WEST SMITHFIELD.
14.--_Wednesday, October 10, and Thursday, October 11, 1804._
THE LETTER of J. A. has been received this morning: the person to whom
it was addressed will be happy to receive a further communication, and
assures the writer that everything friendship can dictate will be done
for him if he will send a line where a letter may be addressed to him:
he thinks it needless to pledge his honour that secrecy will be
observed, and his own inclinations alone be consulted.
