Of the Duke of St. Albans

WHATEVER be the private character of this very unfortunate nobleman; it is a national reproach, and an high reflection in particular on the nobility of this nation, to fuffer a man of his birth and rank, to live within the walls of a goal, and even there, to want the common neceffaries of life! under the eyes too, of a nation, who ought not to fee, with what indifference we behold the calamities and fufferings of one of the first peers of our realm. It is to be lamented, that those English people of rank and fortune, who contributed fo largely to affift the maimed, and wounded at Paris, in the place du Roy, did not confider, how much more laudable it would have been; to have left the French nobility and gentry, to affift their own countrymen ; and ours, to have turned their eyes, and hearts, towards Bruffels.-Many people give charity, who would blush, to have their motives for fo doing known!
