Amongst the varied characteristics of 'this noted person, I do not recollect of any allusion to hi* literary propensities, nor do I find any notice of the sale of his library—an event uhich frequently ensues upon the death of mo,!ern book collectors. From Rob's subscribing, !lowever, to a book of this grave .and learned description, it may be presumed that he did possess a degree of literary taste and knowledge; and, perhaps, it the book-stalls are attentively rum maged, some tine may yet be so fortunate as to pro care a rare tract with his autograph. It is curious td observe the yravity with which Macgregor's popular name, now considered synony. mous with Freebooter, is brought before the Public. It may be thence conje:tuied that no odium was at tached to it, in the mouth of the author at least; for it is not to be supposed that he would intentionally insult One of his Patrons.—l am, Btc.

January IR, 1822. SlR—The very sensible :eal feei:og ob et vations in your valuable Paper of this date, on the subject of Cruelty to Stage-ioach Horses, calls upon the iitten. tion of every traveller, as well as every indiviLl 'al in whose breast a spark of manly and considerate feel ing exists. The occurrence therein stated, viz, of " a poor weary horse, belonging to one of the Sloth ampton coaches, going at a great rate, fell down exhausted, and a lmost lifeless, near Hownslow, on the way to town, and was left upon the high oar— is but one instance of the almost daily conseq ,, ence of the brutal, and oftentimes wanton bar bark' of treat ment, which a fiend, in form of man, the coachman, practices on this noble, patient, and useful animal. Innumerable instances of their inhuman treatment could be enumerated, and where the incessa:it tor tufe of the whip has been exercised in the wrist. cruel and unnecessat y manner, until the overstrained exer tion of the poor animal has afforded a proof of the unfeeling skill of the tyrant, and ended in its COM ple:e exhaustion soon afterwards. A passenger at tempting to remonstrate on this barbarous practice, incurs, to a certainty, an abusive and probably inso lent altercation, for which he has no remedy ; and, however his feelings as a man may safet in witness ing this constant outrage, his want of rt'alla to inter fere, the impossibility of red r e ss , an d his own pre servation from low and irritating language, compel him silently to •submit, and to pursue his journey with secret execrations against the monster, so lost to every sense of generous feeling. I have often heard fellow-passengers exclaim (and to the honour of the female sex in pat titular) their wish, " that the unfee:- ing coachman had the whip applied to his own shoul ders." The practice of coning and tormenting the h o rse is ft equently observed •to he continued, atter the ignorance or neglect of the driver has been evideat, and as if, in the most wanton and ba..harotts manner, to convince the observers that the animal possesses t h e most vicious qualitien„for which their is no re medy but the whip. while it is evident to the mean t observer, that the fault lie in ttsinhuman master alone. That this docile, noble animal, so con :mire to. our pleasure , , our profits, and our service, should -be thus treated, is a most bitter reflection upon our national chat acter. Of what avail is it that we boast of excel lencein expeditions conveyance, if, as is so often the lease, it is at the expense of every manly and generous feeling? We are disposed to laugh at our neighbours (the French) for being so far behind us in rapidity of travelling, superior accommodation, &c. this, how ever, like many other things, is a great mistake. Those who have travelled much in that country (like myself) must confess, that in this particular, viz. cruelty to the horses, we certainly far, very tar iudeed, excel them. It is often observed and remarked, with what pleasure the French driver caresses his horses after a journey, even to kissing them. No animal is more sensible of I4dne,s and good treatment than the horse, or shews mote instinctive attachment. The owners of stage-coaches, many no doubt men of reflecting minds, independent of their own interest, %would do all in their power to prevent this cruelty; but it is impossible to convince the wretch accustomed to the use of the whip by common reasoning, or induce him to yield his supposed superiority of skill in the management of (hiving, to any other mode than-a wanton aid tyrannical abuse of his power. I know of no remedy for such abovs than a regulationa—an Act of Parliament, if necessary—which should com pel them to use whips of a certain make ; or to be re . strained by heavy fine and imprisonment, for every instance of inflicting more than necessary atinams, op the oath of any respectable witness ; a, n ell as the owners being compelled to find strong and able horses to pet fot m the allotted stage, without subjecting the 'passengers to such scenes of cruelty as dady occur.
