_Curious Tender._--

"If any young clergyman, somewhat agreeable in person, and who has a

small fortune independent, can be well recommended as to strictness of

morals and good temper, firmly attached to the present happy

establishment, and is willing to engage in the matrimonial estate with

an agreeable young lady in whose power it is immediately to bestow a

living of nearly 100l. per annum, in a very pleasant situation, with a

good prospect of preferment,--any person whom this may suit may leave a

line at the bar of the Union Coffee House in the Strand, directed to

Z. Z., within three days of this advertisement. The utmost secrecy and

honour may be depended upon."--_London Chronicle_, March, 1758.
