ORIGINAL POETRY. The pernelples of this illustrious man are true, or they are false. If they are 'false, they certainly will gain no proselytes ; for falsehood, from its nature, carries s e lf-detection anti decay within itself. If, on the other hand, his principles are trite, to punish hi m f o r thei r dissetnivation is not only unjust, but it is dangerous, and ,nut ultimately he inefTeLtual. Truth is all pow erful in its nature. It may not improperly be called the tun of the moral and philosophical world; for it ( Mises life and intelligence throughout the system : an d opposition to its influence is scarcely so much the sign of wickedness as it is that of fully and a b sur dity! • Truth has invariably burst the bands of superstition, nliether shielded under the mysteries of an heathen mythology, or the more artful and cruel dogmas of the !lowish Church. Truth has, notwith- i t i ading these obstacles, opened the paths to science and genclue philosophy : and can it then be possible that a Government; which is a mere human iuventi..n ; at b as t a necessary evil ; is it possible, we say, that a Government can be so framed as to etishrond its errors from this penetrating influence? A moment's re flection will thew its impos,ibility; and, if our Minisfeh can bring themselves to meths* eae cause of the late convulsion on the Continent, they will bare little tliffiettlty in tracing that cause to line of conduct too fearfuNy analrgous to their own. It unlit Goo we might flatter ourselves, that such an examination would lead to a clot nee of measures! but our only reliance for the scromplishinent of inch a A l oe, is on the comma.iding voice of those who ale really the representatives of the people; for, with reference to the councils of our Rulers, the fatal ex perience of the past, forbids onr placing any hopes upon the feture—Soaatitution S:'nday Paptr).

The French papers of Thursday contain a variety of conflicting accounts respecting the intentions of the allied powers in regard to Naples. The Joe tied de l'arie asserts, on the authority et letters from Milan, that the Austrian Army will not be put in motion, nor even place , ' on the wsr establishment. The mo tives of the cab; let of Vienna, it further adds, for this determination are not ascertained, though the ru mours of a general pacification are represented as be ing nidely circulated. The Ministers, it also states, of the great powers at Troppau have addressed a de claration to the present government of Naples. Tae Ga.:efir 4k Fradee in some measure contradicts the above intelligence, on the authority of COMMU rtirations received from Vienna. These state that " the ailied Sovereigns cannot recognise the Coastal'. lion which has been imposed upon the KING, but that' it will be entirely free to his Hauser to give to his people such a Constitution as he may deem proper, provided that it be established upon the same bases that have been adopted for the organisation of the Austrian Ftatesiof Italy. It is added, that should this declaration `not be snfficie.ut to produce the de. sited changes in Naples, a manifesto of the Sovereign xiil he published at the nsoment of the entrance of the Austrian troops in the Neapolitan territory." Aeconets Goo 'Naples of the 14th alt. state, that the new expedition seeder General CAL ETTA had arrived at Palermo and Geiorral FLANIIST•N Pars had re turned from thence to Maples.

A rernisision leas been presented to the Vicar it'd Churchwardens of the parish of !dingier, calling on them to convene a meeting of vestry for the purpose of congratulating her Majesty on the failure of the late Bill of Pains and Peasities. The Charchwarders took time to consider the subject, time Senior &Begin!, that the meeting could net be called withont the sano thin of the Vicar. To this it n-as replied, that in feet, the Vicar hail nothing to do with it, and that it reined with the Churchwardens only. The Senior periisted, however, and the objections was staved in deference to his better judgment. Oa Friday night last a refusal to call the meeting was received from time Churchwarden, the conclusion of his letter iodinating that the present is a question in which the intermits of the inhabitants of Islington are not concerned.

THE STA' Again is our attention very strongly and painfully directed to the case of the detected utterers of forged Bank Notes. To-morrow four unhappy victims of this description, and one of them a female, will, unless the Royal 31ercv at the last hour interpose, he called upon to expiate their offence by the forfeitnte of their lives at the front of Newgate. Notwithstand ing the manner, as ere slimed last week, in which these dupes may have been seduced, and notwith standing the preventives which the Bank of Eng land have long professed to be übont to use, still are the feelings of the imhlic to be wrong, and the English character disgraced. by the sacrifice of another groupe of unfortunate fellow creatures, perhaps, not depraved by immoral habits, but impelled by severe dlstre , s. The facility tilth which the destitute and unwary novices are precipi tately involved in what is termed a capital crime, and devoted to a capital punishment, has been too fre quently exposed to require an illustration. The net of the law we see spread out to entangle the minor and the feeble prey, while the greater and the more important are allowed to escape. Those who are employed in circulating the tissue manufacture of the Bank, which is well known to be easily forged, are, without any proof of being harshened by progressive or systematic roguery, punished with death, while thefer gm of that paper currency, appear, from the impunity with which they carry on their operations, to be beyond the reach of law. A sudden change in the fortunes of the unfortunate dupes, and the simplicity of their behaviour, appear to be generally the occasion of their seduction, and the cause of their detection. In cases of delinquency, every alleviating circumstance ought to be taken into consideration, for the purpose of miti gating the doom of the delinquent ; and in every case of the unhappy victims doomed to suffer, every argument of re.,son, and every feeling of humanity. plead earnestly and loudly in their behalf.

Tux Wirurnses.—Fime th..formial de Paris.— On the 20th instant. M. 'radon, Police Officer, of the Police Office, Bow -street, London, arrived at Calais, under the name of Hereofle Somme!. He set out im mediately for Boulogne, in order to provide lodgings for 32 witnesses, who bare bee heard in the pro cess against the Queen of England. They were ex pected at Benlogne, having set out from London en the night of the 20th, in an English corvette. It appears that the head of the Alien Office, and six Pu liee Officers, accompany then:. The day before there also arrived at Calais one of the heads ((Ay' dr /tercels) of Lord Castlereagh's Office, with Barbara Krantz, and her sisters. The Chef di Byron( returned to England the two others, set off for Strasborgh. Mademoiselle De Mont, who arrived the saute day, has, it is said, set out for Paris. Saturday evening his Majesty left his Palace in Pall-641, in his travelling chariot anti four, with out riders, and an escort of the 10th Regiment of Light Dragoons, fur Windsor. The Recorder of London is expected to make snow the, report to the King in Council, in a few days, of convicts under sentence of death is Newgate.

Sir Walter Scott, Bart. has been, upon the resignation of Sir James Hall, unanimously elected President of the Royal Society of Scotland,st the fullest meeting of that learned body that ever assembled. This bombe, which is the highest that Scotland has to bestow NI literary or scientific eminence, was entirely unsolicited ' , it is said, either by the distinguished personage who has received it, or by any of his friends.

It is called The Warlock of Me Glen : sad the story is taken from that clumsy denotement which disfigures the beantifill novel of Me .Intilwary, fur the mere purpose (an object easily attains le to a novelist, without taking so circuitous a path), of making its hero, Loyd,' a man of cousequenre. The author of this little play bas, however, with much skill, reduced tlrf situations at least to within the bounds of extravagant nature, and divested the story of a large portion of its intricacy. His own inveotiro, both with respect to plot and chit; racter, has also contributed to the effect of the whole; one of the thief personages in the piece, Andrew Aftecklethrifi, of infinite service to thedevelopenient of the plot, and to the progress of the action, being, we believe, *cook offspring of his imagination. Mamie". of Me Oasis also a deep dhignise of the misauthropie bold of Glencairn; but its giving him 'hal apparently sopetiti• tural character, and in placing him in that situation, the author should have thought mpre, or less, we know nut which, of Me 31creilies. Report attributes the piece to Mr. %Vacate. the author of the new Tragedy or N'offerre; and it certainly bears much internal evidence of that sort of Wu! , tive genius for producing stage effect from almost every incident, which is the chief merit of that play. The principal characters are supported with great ability by EMMET, ABIBOTT, and Mrs. favor. The efforts of the,ladv went, perhaps, beyond what her part required ; her performance would have been very effective rn Tra gedy. where the mind is associated with more exalted things; but in a two-act Melo.drame, we confess it ap peered at least overstrained. The intense in•eri at with h Is kept up throughout this piece will be sure to make it it lasting favourite with the public. * I] ...11. % ._ .•: ~ ~- =IR
