It has always been in the power of woman, clad in the charms of youth and beauty, by a kind look, or an alluring smile, to seduce me from the path of duty. Female charms have led me into many sad errors, and involved me in many unpleasant and dangerous scrapes; and what was more particulaily unfortunate, I never, so far as woman is concerned, learned wisdom from experience. In my younger days, I no sooner escaped from some awkward misadventure, or startling peril, occa sioned by my devoted atta...chment to the fair, than I was straight ready to encounter another. It always appeared to me that the witchery that is said to lurk about a woman, is not altogether fiction ; it is not a poet's dream. Her bright eye will really fascinate ; and while man remains within its magic influence, his reason no longer exercises over his mind a controlling power, but he is ready for any daring or even guilty enterprise ; and is prepared to embark, regard less of consequences, in adventures which must lead to disgrace, wretchedness, ruin, perhaps death.
