We hear from Plastow, that last week was married there, by
the Rev. Mr. Brown, of this town, the Rev. Moses Badger, of
Haverhill, in the Province of the Massachusetts-Bay,
itinerant missionary for the Province of New-Hampshire, to
Miss Mary Saltonstall, of Boston; a young lady of a
respectable family, and of real worth; which with the known
fidelity, integrity, honor and piety of the gentleman, yield
their friends the most sanguine hopes, that the alliance
will be fortunate, the match happy!----
-------------Wealth is a great
Provocative to am'rous heat;
It is a philters and high diet,
That makes love rampant, and to fly out;
'Tis beauty always in the flower,
That buds and blossoms at fourscore,
'Tis virtue, wit, and words and all,
That men divine and sacred call:
For what is worth in any thing,
But so much money as 'twill bring;
Or what but riches is there known,
Which man can safely call his own.
