AN INSCRIPTION.

MR. CAMPBELL, a Highland gentleman, through whose estate in Argyleshire

runs the military road which was made under the direction of General

Wade, in grateful commemoration of its benefits, placed a stone seat on

the top of a hill, where the weary traveler may repose, after the labour

of his ascent, and on which is judiciously inscribed, _Rest, and be

thankful_. It has, also, the following sublime distich:

"Had you seen this road, _before it was made_,

You would lift up your hands, and bless General Wade."
