LITERARY NOTICE. • LpTT.I.:RS to. MARIAMNE, By Wtt.t.tast Costar, • :Esq., 'Author of The Tour of Dr." Syntax in Search of the Picturesque—The Diabolkad- , - i story of .the Thames—The Devil upon Two Sticks in Lannon, .44ci, etc. When we iaw the advertisement in the Daily Papers, announcing this publication, UT conceived that it was written by some person in imitatioe of the example. of Mr. COME, w ho published Letters of his own writing, under the name of the late Lord LYTTLETON ; and that the Letters now before us were not the real production of the former. But the internal evidence, as well as other testimonies, 'convince us that they are the genuine effusions of Mr. Comma. It seems that they: were addressed, very late in. the life of the, Author, to a person who probably speculated on his death, at his advanced age, and intended, that .cases:: to, make the present use of them. They are written with the ease and elegance which invariably marked the lighter compositions of the Author ; and it is somewhat extraordinary that a writer, whose innumerable political pamphlets were peculiarly forcible in argument, and bitter in satire, should be capable of bending into such a playful spirit, and such ten derness us appear in these Letters. We know that in Mr. ACKEItMANN'S Monthly Repository there is vast number Of articles written by Mr. Coulee, in the manner of The Spectator, all of which are characterized by light elegance,and bear nit impressive moral tendency. We hope that they will be selected and published to kether, us they will then form a valuable addi tion to our familiar Literature. It is obvious that these Letters were written in the confidence of friendship, and, indeed, of a more tender impulse, and that the Author could not - have supposed that they would ever, have been submitted to - the public eye. We are glad, however, that they appear in the present shape, as they cannot but be read with interest. ,They seem to be the effue sions of pure friendship and affection, .and the Poems which follow them apparently result from the same Platonic, feelings, but the lines which it limns that the Editor has withheld,and of which we have been favonred with a. copy, may be thought to "denote a foregone conclusion" of a different kind, and to manifest an inconstancy on the part of the Lady hardly consonant with the purity uni formly ascribed to her in the Letters. The fol lowing is a copy of the Poem in question, and with that we take our leave of this interesting little work : THE PARTING. Since, Mary, we ate doo ra tart, Since I must teat yon - f earl, • That faithful heart, which Esau, Too long your lovely image bear. , A moment your attention lend, And hear the counsels of a friend. When tirst I saw'those beamy eyes, When first I saw those blushe s rise, When first I saw those ringlet break • In jetty beauty on your neck When first I heard your lips dispense The strain of modest eloquence; Oh, how I wish% that I could move 'The beautious charming maid to lov e ; And when you heard me tell fly fieine, And when you said . you felt the same, And when possess'd of charms like thine, No happiness could.equal mine. But room the gaudy dream was o'er, The painted phantom was.nti more; And in the,place of virtue's charms, Deceit and lolly fill'd ply arms. %Vim tortures did my bosom move, What pangs of dissppoitrted love, to my hopes I bade adieu, And hired away from love 'end you. From love said Ihow vain the boast, Tho' by the foulest -- mischief crust ; My, coward heart still pants for pm, And knows notitow to say Adieu. .Thus the ,poor moth around the light, Though scarch'd its wings, renews tts tiight, Nor wounded from the toe retires, 'But in'the very flame eipires sr,* There is a complimentary notice of these Letters in a judicious and liberal weekly pub lication, inti tied The Literally Museum ; but it is obvious that the Editor knew little of the Author and his numerous works, fur otherwise he'would not have' spoken so lightly of the talents and at tainments of Mr. Costal:, who was a sound sc h o l a r, deeply conversant with the Sciences, us well as ‘$ ith the classical and modern languttgeS, a Gentleman of relined taste, a powerful political writer, and, if Fortune had given scope to his abilities; who was eminently qualified to render himself a distinguished ornament of British Lite rature. *• • . followin DUELLI NG.-- Ihe g extract is from a charge lately delivered to the Grand Jury of West-Chester, United States, by tint . lion. they Jay, first Judge or that county, and clearly evince that this crying evil is more correctly appreciated by the American legislature than our own ;—" Gen. denten, when weseriouslyeellect on the declaration made by the Almighty, at t hat awful moment when the retiring WAtetli of the deluge proclaimed blotan holy and avengin g .

If that system shall prOve to be opposed to nature and to feet, no one can be more anxious than myself that it should be, immediately rejected by every one.

And it becomes the duty of those who shall be able to detect an error in any one of them,' to'cotne forward and expose it to the pub lic ; more especially that of the Clergy and the Governments of all countries, who, in fact, a are e en. t r usted with the formatiod'of the'human character, iand th direction of human affairs. ROBERT OWEN. - New Lanark, ilth Oct. 1823. D EM ERA R Y. ( From the Royal Gazette, "tug. 21) Five o'clock, p.m.—The Court.Nlartial re. assembled this morning at an early hour ; and the military procession:is now passing with four more prisoners for execution.— The mines of ilp ringleaders executed last evening were, Murphy of Plantation Fonds, and harry of Good Hope, East Coast.—Many prisoners continue to arrive from the Easttoast. Ills Excellency's last con ciliatory Proclamation, however, appears to have had a gOod.eirect great numbers.—We under- stand that sufficient has come out in evidence and confession to show that the plans and arrange. merits of the rebels were most extensile and well made—too well indeed to admit of a doubt but that a superior order of people laid the original foundation.. Perhaps the intriguing Saints at home had a-hand in ito—if so they will hear with dit appointmentand pain, that a superinding and just Providence has frustrated their diabolical inten tions. The preventive discovery was made only a few hours before the intended one, that was to make Demerary a second St. Domingo! ( From the Royal Gazette, Aug-30.) The names of the rebels executed last Thurs day were—Evan of Plantation Good Hope, Da mis of Plaitance,and Daniel and Philip of Foul's. The Court-Martial continues to sit daily, obtain ing most important information. PRIVATE LETTERS._ Demerara, 30th August, 1823. " Before this reaches you the account of the diabolical in surrection which took place on the evening of thel9th, on the east coast of this colony, win, in .all probability, have been known in Britain. I have already given you the outlines of it as far as it was known up to the 26th, per packet, (poi yet re ceived,) and previously by the liellyards. Since that time a fel. low named Paris, belonging to Plantation Good Hope, upon a promise of pardon, revea led the, whole plot, and a great many ne. grace have, in consequence, been apprehended both in town and country. It had its ramification throughout the colony ; but as yet the negroes in the Mahaica Creek, and on the, west coast, have not been much implicated in the conspiracy, which Was chiefly confined to town, most of the large estates up the river; and to windward, as far as the Grove, near the Mehaice, Creek. One of the ringleaders in town was a servant be longing to_the Governor, and there were other domestics Impli. cated who were in the confidence of their masters. The Go. vernor's man was to give them access to the Covernment House, and others were Appointed to act their parts in this tragedy. We were all.slumbering on our post, and quite unprepared to meet them. Had the discovery not been made just in time, we should have All been put to death : the Ladies in town were all appropriated. The Methodist Parson, Named Smith, who resides at Le Ressouvenir, bto whit is now a prisoner, was to have been the Mighty tumeronnstead of the humble Priest. A fellow. named Hamilton, wbo had just been discharged from the ma nagement of the estate Le Ressouvenir, was to be General, and to command the army. A negro engaged in the plot conduit nicated it to his master, Alex. Simpson Esq ., who went int medistelyand stated .the matter-to the dovernor, who dispatch.. ed Mr. Simpson with a troop of cavalry and.and a body of rifle , maunder the command of Capt. Croal, and a detachment of regulars under the command of Colonel Leahy of the 21st regi. meet. The.saine everting the Governor went up the coast, and heti n parley with the rebels, wishing theM to return to their duty, This had a bud effect, as they considered it proceeded from there not being kuilicient force In the colony to oppose {heat.; they fired.several shots. After this our operations com menced, and the loss of negroes has been considerable but not so inueh as the . Cazette unnounces, which I forwsirtied per Hallyerds. Light of the principal revolters have been execut. ed in town, and tear mare condemned yesterday. The court. Martial continues sitting every day. This formidable con apiracy is entirely broken up,„ but the chief abettors, the Metho dist parsons, have not yet been puniehed. There is sufficient evidence to convict one of them, I understand. 31st August.—Every thingis perfectly tranquil, and the insurrection complely subduetV merary, 30th August, 1023. I wrote you a few hurried lines by the fiellyards, acquaint ing you of the breaking out ,of a revolt and insurrection of the negroes on the . Xaat Coast of the Colony. And I ant truly happy in being enabled to ray, that it bus now been got the better of, through the prompt exertions of thefew military, and of the regular and provisional militia. It extended over the whole east coast, ouhraeing a negro population of abtive 16,000 and extending from Towo.to Mahinea. Thatsis no doubt but thatit 'mini origin from the discussions at home, and in the idea that the negroes had taken up, that their masters were unwilling to carry into effect' die benefits they supposed had been grtuned them liy the. King. It ap. peon they had a well 00nel4 -plan, anti which was intended by, theta to, have extended aver Alie whale t' lorry. They con. coved that by getting poleission of, and confining the whitener.. aons-tm the estates, they would be able to exact froni them their own tome They proceeded in this manner ; the first estate roe, and the men armed thenieelves with pudasses, and proceeded to the adjoining estete, there they took foreible possession of the houses, and of all arms they could find, and put the manager and all other white persone in coc> finement in the stocks ; they pre. tended to overawe the rierroes on -this estate, and 'joining together they then proceeded to the third estate : the same thing was there done—arms and ammunition taken— the 1111'114,05, &c. put into eatifinement—and,a part went an 4om estate to estate doing the same thing but ttilting care that no act of violence should be done by . the negrties on that estate to which they Ire- longed. In this manner, in a few Imre, it spread over the whole coast. They Limn brought apaper tattle mitnagtra, Acc• in confinement, to sign, purporting, that they were to he allowed—three clays in the week for theintielves, and the other three days to go to their masters, for food, elothing e &e. wafer , the estate.
