I shall set out for Ireland to-morrow.—Remember my sister, tho' sure I need not urge your friendship, that the treasure of my heart is committed to your care; and may your kind attention be rewarded with the restoration of Lady Juliana's health and happiness.

C. EVELYN.

P. S. Direct for me at Captain Harrison's, Kildare-street, Dublin.—I am all amazement—Harrison is just come in and tells me that Miss Harley has offered to accompany his sister to Ireland! What can she mean! She shall not go, if I can prevent it.
