By this success the latter have acquired a confounding , position to bombard the island in'the . harbour, wliich . is the last hold, of the Spaniards. The capitulation, of which we give a copy, is dated 17th Mdy. This news is rendered more grateful by the circulation of previous accounts of an ad verse character from that quarter, stating that a combined 'tuck by sea and land had been made on I'uerto Cabello by the Colombian forces, in which the letter were 'repulsed with loss, and Gen.

I think, how ever, that you cannot, consietently with row usual algestion to matters of this kind, lager remain a passive ape/tester of the struggle. I should have sooner addressed you epos the subject, but it. was necessary to ascertain • taw polars sot originally well defined, before I could do so with srdvantage. It appears wow to be acknowledged by both of the crewed ing patties who criticise the subject,.aut as "rostrum of the Arts, bet the professors of polities! paylos time shit trophy. consisting of a asked man of &woof ev, 1.. the attitude of • gladiator in con.bit, is intended fee • figure of Achilles, at the moment of die distocrvy of his sex by illesses. But to enable the reader to deelde•opun the merits of the design, it may not be improper to give * sketch of the here's story. Achilles, thew, was the son of Pettus, and the marine gladden Thetis, who with aneenhee's fondness dipped him in his ibfancy in the river Stye, the waters of which bad the quality of rendering him invulner able; but as she held him by the heel in the moment of immersion, that part unfortunately remained mortal. A 4 a further protection agaiust a prophecy, that he should be killed le battle, the fond parent placed him at the Court of his uncle Lycontedes, King of Scyros, where he was brought up as a girl with his female cosines its ere nursery, and was become a strapping youth is petticoats at the time the Grecian army undertook the siege of Troy. Another prophecy, however, haring prevailed, Oak this city could be takes without his ass nee, a party, con sisting of Ulysses, Diomede, and sate, was sent in search of the disguised youth; and Ulysses, having obtained ad• mission to the presence of the Royal Family of &pros as a pedlar,proviiied with armour, mveltos, trinkets, &e. snow discovered the object of bin pursuit by the attention which bevels! to thewarlike implements while the young ladies were engaged with the female finery. At this moment ',lmpact says Achilles, the stripling Achilles, be whose dimension to serve • particular purpose had been curtailed as far as was necessary by the divine agency of maternal care, 'lefts forth iu all his gigantic and full proportions at the Wider.' lunch of Ulysses; bin garments roll off his body, ,and fall befine the hero* feet as by magic; his beautiful and slue* y form lowers far above the Leads of Ulysses and Diomede; he withers eves the household gods with Use dreadful effelgroce of his own superior state, and, seizing the buckler and spear, he displays a martial en thusissin, challenging as It were the foe to battle. Now, Sir, why this particular period in the life of Achilles should be chosen, lam totally at • loss to conceive. It bears no relation whatever to any part in the biography o the Duke of Wellington. That Chief commenced life as s soldier of fortune, and a most fortunate soldier he has prov ed. His attendance as Aide.de-Camp upon Ilse Earl of WWI morlsnd, when Lord Lieulesant of Ireland, is all that he ever knew of the softness Sod effeminacy of a Court prior to his departure for India. Achilles, too, was only a Cap tain in the Grecian army, of which Agamentnon was Com mander in Chief; and farther, although of endoubted vs:- lour, he is more lauded for his running than his fightin g Oa; sieve, the swifl.footcd, is the favourite epithet ap plied to him by Homer, to whom he owes his fame, if not his existence. But the great objection made to this trophy, 1 find, is uu the ground of indecency, in exhibiting • huge naked . man to the gaze of every modest woman on her entrance tote .Hyde Part. A Paper of yesterday, the Morning Post, I think, goes unueeessarily far in its defence, upon the score of custom, the ladies, it says, being used to see such sights on the banks of the Serpentine. Our first parents were naked,sod they were not ashamed, because their minds were pore. Noire but impure minds can, therefore, be offended by the contem plation of the naked man, and as to such a giant exciting the female passions, the thing is monstrous. It is more an object of terror than of admiration, and true have we know Annetta outs rear. Muesli stress has been also laid on the disposition of the armour, obit') is placed behind the statue ; but this, which is &boned as a d. fret, is a critical heauty.•-, The body of Achilles being ievelnerable i „be is ,pet, 0%4 lo expose his person in front; the armour is therefore-Judie ciously placed behind to guard bis heel, the only vulnerable part, in which be did actually reeelve his mortal ,sioned by as arrow from the bow of Paris. The charge of it Mach, posure of the whole front is, believer, a gross misrepresenta. Lion. The artist has evinced • disposition to avoid it, zei instead of indecency has in this displayed an mess of delicacy. A. 4 she funeral of the 'ticket Roman Plobt4ly. it , was cos.
