IP I III I F - 1 1 .r"d. Nit. kHICHErS NEW POEM. Now have I Boated on thine infant smiles At morning, when thine eyes unclosed on mine; /low, as the months in swift succession rolled, I marked thy human faculties unfold, And watched the dawaing of the light divine: And with what artifice of playful guiles Won from thy lips with still repeated wi!cs hiss after kiss, a reckoning often told. — Something I wren thou know'st; for thou bast seen Thy sisters in their turn such fondness prove, And felt how childhood, in its winning years, Th' attempered soul to tenderness can move. This thou cati'st tell; hut not the hopes and fears With which a parent's heart sloth overflow— The thoughts and cares inwoven with that love— It's nature and it'. depth thou-dest not, cadet not know! The years which since thy birth have passed away, May well to thy young retrospect appear A nteasureless extent ;—like yesterday. Tu me, so soon they filled their short career. thee, discourse of season have they brought, With sense of time and change; and something, too. Of this precarious state of things have taught, Where nut► abideth never in one stay ; And of mortality, a mournful thought. And I have seen chine eyes suffused in grief, When I have said, that with autumnal grey 1 he touch of old hath marked thy father's bead ; That even the longest day of life is brief, And mine is failing fast into the yellow leaf ! Thy, sappy nature front the painful thought With instinct turns, and scarcely cau'iot thou bear To hear me NMI the grave ; thou knowest not How•largu a portion at my heart is there! The faces which I loved in infancy Are pone; and bosom farads of riper age, With whim I gladly talked of years io conic, Summoned before me to their heritage, Are in the better world. beyond the tomb. And I have brethren there, and sisters dear, And dearer babes. I, therefore, needs must dwell Often lu thought with those whom still I love so well ! Thus wilt thou feel in thy maturer mind; • When grief shall be thy portion thou wilt find Safe consolation in such thoughts as these— A present refuge in afilledon's hour. And, if indulgent Heaven thy lot should bless, With, all imaginable happiness, Here shalt thou have, my child, beyond all power Of chance, thy holiest, surest, best delight. Take, therefore, now, thy father's latest lay— Ikoluips his last—and treasure in thine beast . The feelings that its musing strains convey; A song it is of life's declining day, Yet meet for youth. Vain passions to excite No strains of morbid sentiment I sing, ?for tell of idle loves with ill.epent breath : h reverent'effering to the grave I bring, :Abated:le a garland for the brow of:Death! The following beautiful stanzas are from Mr. Sonnies unpub lished Poem of " A Tale of Paraguay;'—and . are a part of the dedicatory lines addressed by the Poet to his Daughter. MAILS'!" AND CO.'S BANICRUPTCy. . . Saturday, aMeeting of the Creditors was held at the Commissioners' Rooms, in Basinghall-street: a great number of debts were admitted to proof, and the ut most anxiety was manifested, it being generally sup posed that another dividend of Ss. 41. in the pound should have been declared, and that the Bank of Eng land would have waived its claim on the estate. The application which had been made to the Lord-Chancel lor to restrain this payment, excited consithwattle ap prehension, but as his Lordship always takes due time for consideration, the . creditors thought they should steer clear of the Bank claim and receive the dividend 'of thtee shillings and fourpence in thepound.. In this state of uncertainty Mr. Montague entered the r00m..., silence was immediately obtained, 'and every one felt' anxious to hear his observations. Mr. Montague said, the Lord Chancellor had ordered that the meeting should be ac'journed till Tuesday se'rutight, and' n the meantime bus Lordship requested that the Commit sioners should examine each claim which aliouldibe wide by the Bank of England ; and his Lordship also requested that the assignees would report to the Com missioura s whether there was sufEcient outstanding pro perty to meet the claim of the Bank, in case p decision should be made in their favour? This proceeding must necessarily occepy a considerable time, as the accounts are very voluminous. ' • - atuflifolc===as Mr. C.

In cases of drowning nothing can be more injurious, cr more likely to destroy any remains of vitality that may exist, than the practice of suspending persons by the heels, which is never resorted to but by the most ignorant.

GEORGS'S HOSPITAL. TREATMENT OF THE PATIENTS. SECOND DAY. Saturday, at twelve o'clock, the inquiry was resumed before the same Board of Governors. The room was in , ch more crowded, and as the decision of the Com mittee was expected upon the case, the utmost interest was excited. - Dr. HOLLAND, on taking the Chair, called the at. tention of the Governors to. the point where they had closed on the previous evening. A Governor then observed, that the better course would be to examine Mr. Pitman. This was agreed upon, and that Gentleman being called in, declared most solemnly that the treatment' was the same. in the case of the deceased as in others. He had been most properly and humanely treated by every servant of the establishment, and the joint of his leg being injured very likely cashed his death. . Mr. Stiron (one of the Governors, an eminent sur geon) very closely and most skilfully examined the wit ness upon *the treatment of the deceased, and also ques tioned him technically as to the wound, its extent, the nsutcles injured, the extent of the cut, its general ap peat arice,nad finally upon the treatment pursued. Mr. Pitman answered an these interrogatories fairly, and evi dently in a 'dentine manner, although ft was manifest that there are some slight pecollaridesin his treatment, Mr. &mu, upon these points, declared that it was the rule, in all the modern improvements in Surgery, to do nothing but when a precise object was attainable, therefore he protested against the use of the roller ap plied to the deceased's wound. Dr. GIZOORY, and other Governors, however, ex• pressed their unwillingness to have an opinion offered at that stage of the business. Upon this a desultory conversation also arose, which, however, was closed without any definite decision. Mr.Hatinv Jerraava, theHosse Surgeoe,gave a most elaborate description of the wound, and its effects upon the constitution, declaring any patient under the same circumstances would have bees treated precisely in a similar manner. He declared upon his honour that the sick bed of a Nobleman could not be mote sedulously watched than that of an humble patient in that Hos pital—they had everything they wished fur, and he instanced that upon one occasion, when a patient wanted oranges, hit wish was complied with, and ens shilling each was paid for them forest patient's ass..

Friday, Mr. Rawlinson, the Magistrate of Mary-la. bonne Police-office, was for some time engaged in the examination of the numerous petitions, letter s,itc. which were found in the pOcket-book discovered in the outer once after Hemmingtori and Brown (who *vi e charged by Sit Charles Forbes, Btrt.) were loclced up. The result was the discovery of most extensive .depre4a tions, which have been practising for a cons der4ble pe riod on some of the most 'eminent individuids in the metropolis. It would be tedious to enunierate the va. metropolis. It appears, the gang is extensive aqd well organized, and that several females are concerned in the plot. It would seem that whenever a fire takes place they immediately g e t tip petitions, stating theniselves to be the sufferers, and that they have lost the whole of their property, which they sign with the names of the Ministers and Churchwardens of the parishes where the fire takes place, who are supposed to recommend them as worthy objects of relief. °hers are for the relief of reduced Clergymen, and persons. whO ire represented as having been ruined by thieves breaking into their houses, and stealing the whole of their property. One of the petitions was of a peculiarly distressing descrip tion ; it represented the widow of a Lieutenant Lloyd (who was stated to have fallen with Lord Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar) to: be in the most heart-rending distress, and in a state of insanity; it claimed the charity of the benevolent. Another *as from a person calling himself a Mr. Simpson, who had suffered in consequence of the late fire in Long Acre. The petitions, which were signed with the fictitious names of Churchwardens, caused the most munificent donations to be given. and the whole of them were signed by the following penises who had subscribed from 2/. to U. and upwards :—Lieutenant-Colonel Graham, Sir G. Robinson, Lady Mary Burlelgh, Earl of &amford. Marquis of Lansdowly, Count Monster, Lord H. Speomr, Duchess of Buceleuch, Earl Easton, Sir C. Forbes, Sir W..

Hart, a labouring man, was charged with borglzrr The prisoner lodged in the hnsue,of the complainant, John Phillip.. in East-lane ' Walworth, who had recently returned from India. and married. The stratagem bit upon by she prisoner was rather novel. Having excited the jealousy of Phillips, be seduced his wife into a public-house, where he knew Phillips would search for her, in the event of her being from home. He succeeded as he expected; and while Phillips was rebuking his wife for her incon stancy, the prisoner slipped away, and going to the house broke it open, and stole his money and some valuable shawls which be bad brought from India. In his retreat, he had to scale some high walls, when he fell into the street; and his inexpressible. accident ally falling loose, discovered the shawls, which were twisted round his waist. He was, in consequence, secured by the neighbours. The prisor.er was c ommitted for trial. CLERICAL INTELLIGENCE. CAMBRIDGE, JUL i 2fo.
