London, Nov. 9. A Great Personage lately censured his
brother very severely for his irregular course of life; and
particularly on account of his unbridled passion for
intrigue. You see, says he, what a sum I have to pay for
you; you are sensible of the disgrace you bring on your
family, and how unworthy it is not to follow our better
example. The young buck, with his usual levity, turned
round upon his heel, whistled (for he is fond of music) and
then left the room, humming to himself, 'My mother did so
before me.'
