The Govern ment is reported to have adopted measures for march ing the troops, lately under the command of Count DE LAS NAVAS, against the Carlists in Navarre. A report prevails that the QUEEN has issued a final de cree for the entire suppression of all convents, both of males and females, in Spain. The language of the Press, with respect to the conduct of the Government, is extremely flattering. Most of the influential Journals declare themselves pre pared to go all lengths in favour of M. MENDIZABAL'S Administration. Thosewhich do not express them selves so confidently are, nevertheless, willing to co operate with him in crushing the rebellion in the Bis cayan provinces. Besides the Madrid Papers, the Vapor and the Journal of Barcelona pledge them selves to advocate the measures which have received the sanction of the President of the Council. " The acts of the new Minister," says the Vapor, " all indicate progress—a happy intelligence in the ma nagement of State matters—an intimate acquaint ance with the opinion of the age and its neces sities. The programme of his march satisfies us. The nomination to the command in the provinces evinces a change, not merely of persons, but of principles. The speedy re-assembling of the Cortes, the new Electoral Law to be formed, the Estatuto to be revised, these and the whole language of Ministerial documents, prove sufficiently that the Ministry of MENDIZABAL will support itself by pub licity, by legal measures, and that it will satisfy the public wish." There are some advices from the north which relate principally to the marches and counter-marches of small divisions. The Carlists are still at Estella, hav ing entirely evacuated Mallo. According to the Jour nal de Paris, the French coast guard was obliged, on the 19th, to fire twenty-eight guns on the Carlists at Behobia, as several of their balls fell on the French territory. In the Paris Journals of Thursday, the whole of which we have just received, we find two articles on the subject of some strange Bacchanalian revelries and gross indecencies indulged in by certain Members of the French Government, at a banquet given to a Mi nisterial shooting party at Grand Vaux, the seat of Ministers, th e P re f ects o f t h e Count VIGIEIt. The : Seine, the 'Chiefs of till e Police, and several other dis tinguished., enjoyin g th e con fid ence o f hi s A i Majesty, jesty, t h e s individuals ov ereif ,n of the FRENCH, were present. After dinner the pa rty is reported to have amused itself by the expl, osion of petards and the fire of musketry, arrange' Iso as to imitate the explosion of FIESCHI'S -infer' • lal machine ; to have organised a mock-attack 0 n. the barri ca d es , an d a s h am battle between • the army an d th e R epu bli cans ; to have parodied' M. DUPIN the President's Address _ ..... . to the Chamber c X Deputies, and to have mimicked the proceedings o f the Chamber itself, in a way dero gatory to the dif nity of that Assembly. Obscenities too gross to be - mentioned are said to have followed, the party being in a state of brutal intoxication. The first notice of tl its most scandalous affair appeared in he Courrier l Francais, which called forth an angry letter from (3( :neral JACQUENIINOT, one of the guests, in which h( 1 , denied the right of public Journalists to notice the ...festive gaieties of a social party. The General f uirthcr asserted, that the statement which had appe aced relative to an explosion of petards, •in imitation of - the FIESC/II machine, was utterly false. In the C punier Francais of Thursday, we find some severe ar Llma dversions on General JACQUEMINOT'S letter, with :a reiteration of all the statements which had been ris ide, with the exception of the explosion of the pet aids. Thus s tands the case at present ; nor do we consi der oursel ms at liberty to express, in the fullest terms, our opini , ms respecting it. We trust, for the honour of humar t nature, that the report is wholly groundless. Such scei les as theJe described in the Courrier Francais, are only 5t to be associated with the Republican Mar ' riarr b es, ai id th e a l mos t i nconce i va bl e excesses comm i tte d in Franc e during the Reign of Terror. A horrible idea recurs to the mind on contemplating the mock-con -1 filets and the massacres of the people, even in imagi nation, by the hired tools of the Government. We will not trust ourselves with a more direct allusion to what alone could have given rise to such commingled scenes of butchery and obscenity, as are reported to have disgraced the mansion of Count VIGIER. Upon the minds.of the people of France the whole affair will make a deep, and we trust a salutary impression. i Should the report be proved correct, the dismissal of I MM. TIMERS and DUCHATEL will be absolutely necessary, to prevent a general rising of the people against the Government. The Journal de Paris and the Nouvelle Minerve are at open war on the subject of an article, relative to the war in Spain, which lately appeared in the Journal de Debats. The following version of this strange affair appears in Galignani's Messenger of Thursday : The Journal des Debats having published an ar ticle upon the events of the war in the northern pro vinces of Spain, the Nouvelle Minerve shortly after wards asserted that it had been written by an ex-aide camp of ZUMALACARREGUI, at the request of the Duke de BROGLIE, who had communicated it to the Debats. To this assertion the Journal de Paris gave a formal contradiction, and challenged the Mi nerve to produce its authority. The Minerve, in answer, published the name of General LATAPIE as having written the article, and read it in the pre sence of the Duke de BROGLIE and M. GUIZOT. The Journal de Paris replied, that it had express au thority to deny the correctness of this statement. Upon this the Minerve inserted a letter addressed to it by General LATAPIE, in which he declares that he is under the painful necessity of stating that the contra diction given by the Journal de Paris is unfounded. The Journal de Paris has since repeated its assertion, that the statement made by the Minerve was incorrect, and announced that the Duke de BROGLIE had in stituted a prosecution against the last-mentioned jour nal for a libel." If the prosecution against the Nouvelle Minerve be commenced, the responsible Editor may make preparations for three months' incarceration and the payment of a smart penalty. His inno cence—and we know him to be innocent in this instance—will not avail him when M. BROGLIE is the prosecutor. The Minister is sure of a verdict. The safest course, then, for the editor to follow, is to •implore the clemency of the KING, his Cabinet, and all who are in authority in France—if so extensive an appeal for mercy be required by the offended tools of the Government. As to the morality of such a pro ceeding, more need not be said than that it is dictated by the FIESCIII enactment, for restraining the truth telling privileges of the French Press. In the " best of Republics," it is natural to suppose that the people should enjoy privileges which arc denied to men living tinder Monarchical Institutions. Now in France the peculiar privilege of this kind extended to the Press, is the liberty of dis pensing with truth in all that concerns the KING, the Cabinet, and the general Government of the countr And as to well regulated humane minds, it is more agreeable to praise than to censure, the Press is autho rized—nay, most virtuously constrained—never to utter a syllable, save in commendation of the acts of the Ad ministration. This of course results from surrounding the throne with those " republican institutions"—the barricades ! The following are extracts from the journals M. Audry de Puyravcau, after having undergone a month's imprisonment, in pursuance of the sentence of the Chamber of Peers, has been set at liberty. Letters of the 10th instant from Bilboa announce that Ge neral Evans is to be invested with the command of the pro. vinces of Alava, Biscay. and Guipuzcoa. PARIS, OCT. 22.—Three English ships from Malta have arrived in the bay,of Cadiz. They are the Malabar, of 84 guns, the Endyndon frigate, and the Childers brig. Others are expected from Lisbon. People do not know what to think of the presence of this naval force in that port ; but it was oh. served that these ships did not fire a salute till the Junta had been dissolved. The Gazette de France confesses that the Count d'Espagne, who had penetrated into Spain, was driven back to the fron tier on the 11th and forced to return into France • and yet it publishes a proclamation of that General, dated Oct. 14, from his head-quarters at Saint Laurent de Mareniusw. Mrs. d'Donnel, who lives at Paris, is preparing to go and join her husband, who is a prisoner at Figueras. The expedition against Abdul Kader will be commanded by Marshal Clausel himself. It does not appear that General Trezel, who is now at Paris, will make part of the expedition, at least he has not yet received orders to that effect. No mi litary measure is neglected that can enable us to take signal vengeance. A's for the Duke of Orleans, his Royal Highness leaves Paris to-day, as we hear. He will go to Corsica on board the Castor steam boat, and afterwards go to Africa, where he will arrive so as to be on the spot with the projected expedition. He will, therefore, be in a situation similar to that in which he was at the siege of the citadel of Antwerp, where he took part in the dangers of our brave troops, under the eye of a Marshal of France, who had the command.—Messager, October 22.

This ex= pedition is to be stronger than the first, which failed, and by attacks of the enemy, and insalubrity of the climate, was reduced to a third of its original. Eight regiments, it is said, are again to be intrusted to the ignorant and thoughtless leaders, to the wretched boats in the stormy Red Sea, perhaps to fall victims to the heat and moisture of Tehama, or to the well-aimed matchlocks of the Bedouins, fighting for their ancient freedom and independence, in the Assir mountains, which are well, fortified by masses of granite. The conquest of that naked chain of mountains is not of itself of the smallest ' advantage to MEHEMET ALI ; on the contrary, the Egyptian army will always find at its foot an immense grave for the victims of destructive order, such as once raged among the Roman legions. Yet the sub jection of the savage inhabitants of this chain, whose chiefs disgrace the Caaba, and its Scherif, and also sometimes pour down like a torrent, plundering and laying waste the coasts of Yemen, is absolutely neces sary, if MEHEMET ALI intends to become and to re main master, not only of Yemen, but even of the higher country near the coast. If this war carries off a dreadful number of men, it equally swallows up the treasures of the Pacha of EGYPT. It may be easily imagined, how expensive and difficult it must be, when it is recollected, that not only all the money, but all the provisions, ammunition, tents, &c., must be sent from this place, partly through the desert on camels, partly across the Red Sea. In the vicinity of the Assir Mountains, besides, camels are not so easily to be found, and are of bad qua lity, whence the Egyptians have often been obliged to retreat, because they were destitute of every necessary. The success of the campaign is, therefore, very doubtful, even if this second expedition should take place. The long and fatiguing journey, the fo reign and most unhealthy climate, deprive the feeble Egyptians of all strength and energy. How shall the natives of the level valley of the Nile, who never ascended a hill in their lives, contend with advantage with the Bedouins, who climb the rocks like goats, and in the day time, when their enemies, who are numerous, conceal themselves behind them, then attack small de tachments with the rapidity of lightning, and by night keep the hostile camp in constant alarm ? This last circumstance will render it still more difficult to keep possession of the country, than to conquer it ; for should the Egyptians be able to penetrate into the in terior of the mountain chain, the repulsed Bedouins (especially with the imprudence of the Turks), will early find opportunities to annoy the conquerors, to surprise and massacre their garrisons. The independent spirit of the Arabs, and their mortal hatred of the Turks is such, and it is so easy for them to emigrate, that they will certainly rather settle in apprenticeship expires. Mr. INNEs strongly recommends the employment of emigrants from Europe, who, if properly selected, he thinks, would be a great acquisition in this colony. The experiment has been tried, but not in such a way as to give it any chance of success. The labourers wanted are married men, of industrious and sober habits, who might improve the negroes by their example in discharging the relative duties of parents, husbands, brothers,l &c. We fear the emigrants hitherto sent out, are not altogether of this description. Mr. INNEs's observations on this subject, are well worth the attention of those who are interested in the future prosperity of Jamaica :-- " As emigration has been hitherto conducted, much mis chief and little good has resulted. The Colonial Legisla ture encouraged emigration by a bounty of 15/. currency on each person imported, without regard to age or cha racter. This unqualified bounty, as might have been ex pected, operated as an encouragement to introduce people on speculation. Many were engaged, in Germany and else where, without inquiry into character ; these persons have deteriorated, instead of having improved society, besides occasioning a heavy burden on the public. Even children born on the passage out have been paid for as emigrants. I hope this Act will be amended, by limiting the advantage to those whose conduct for a given period after arrival may entitle them to reward. It is so essential to show a moral example to, and to avoid interference with the domestic at tachments of, the negroes, that single men, unconnected with families, ought not to be introduced ; and great care ought to be taken not to engage any family without suffi cient proof of previous good character. Emigration, thus regulated, would prove a blessing to this country, and at the same time benefit Great Britain. In many districts the climate is suitable to European constitutions, and every description of labour might be carried on without prejudice to health ; besides which, I believe there is no part of this island in which whites may not do all the work on coffee, pimento, and ginger plantations ; and on sugar estates, all about the works and buildings, as coopers, carpenters, blacksmiths, wheelwrights, boiler-men, &c., during crop, and out of crop as plough-men, cattle-men, wood-cutters, and in carting manure ; consequently there is a great field for white labour. The legislature, in addition to the bounty alluded to, have voted sum§ not exceeding 5,000/. for each of the three counties into which the island is divided, for the establishment of a township in each. If this money be judiciously expended, incalculable benefit may result ; by forming these townships of such families as I have de scribed, and giving each family a dwelling, and sufficiency of provision-land, rent-free, for a liberal period, with the full benefit of their industry, they would soon supply valu able labourers for plantations, and encourage the formation of smaller communities, to the extension of cultivation to districts h.therto neglected. It is only by calling in the aid of free labour that the prodigious resources of this magnifi cent country can be called forth. In rivers, bays, and har bours, Jamaica is. peculiarly favoured ; thus affording the greatest facilities to internal improvement. " It appears to me that planters, in their eagerness for emigrants, are not sufficiently cautious in their selection, as to country as well as character, foreigners being as accepta ble as Englishmen. It is undoubtedly a great object to in crease the number of labourers in a country so under-peo pled, but it is still more important to improve the state of society, which I humbly conceive is more likely to be de teriorated than improved by the introduction of persons of foreign habits and speaking a foreign language : it is only. to persons from the mother-country that I look for the de sired improvement. For mere labourers I have heard of none equal to the Africans who have been released under the mixed commission, and sent to Trinidad. It may be deserving of the consideration of Government, how far it may be made compatible with views of philanthropy to en courage arrangements for importing negroes from Africa. under similar indentures to those entered into by. persons from Madeira and elsewhere." some place near the Assir Mountains, and thence harrass their enemies by sudden incursions, than bow their proud necks under the yoke of Egyptian slavery. But, as we have said, it is not likely to come to this. The brilliant victory of the enthusiastic Arabs of the Assir mountains, has surely procured them numerous and powerful allies ; and while new chain are forging for them here, they will collect round them the valiant tribes of the neighbouring Happy Arabia, who, if the Mountaineers are subdued, may expect a similar fate, since the possession of that country, so rich in gold, or at least believed to be so, is the chief object of Me hemet Ali. These, with their united forces under the vroteetion of their coral reefs and deserts, will de fend their independence and patriarchal institutions, against the mercenary slaves of the Turkish despot.

Under judi cious management, it could rot fail to have a beneficial influence on the character of the negroes. The parti cipation by white men in that labour, which has hitherto been considered fit only for the blacks, and which has therefore been associated in their minds with ideas of inferiority and degradation, will gradually re concile them to it; and the conviction that their ser vices are not indispensably necessary to the planters will operate as a check upon exorbitant demands for Wages.

The author of the valuable pamphlet on the working of the apprentice system in the West Indies, which we noticed a few days ago, attributes the little progress which has hitherto been made in negro civilization in Jamaica, in a great measure, to the non-residence of the proprietors. The negroes have thus been con signed to the care of mercenaries. The chief ma nager or attorney, as he is called, represents the absent proprietor, but, as we have seen, is often little better than an absentee himself. Supposing him to possess what may be called the moral qualification s for his office—the humanity, the intelligence, the exemplary character, which are not only necessary for the due dis charge of his delicate and difficult duties, but which are in daily, nay hourly, requisition—how is a man not gifted with übiquity to exercise a constant superin tendence over eight or ten thousand negroes, spread over an extent of hundreds of miles ? The thing is impossible ; and the necessary consequence is the em ploytnent of another mercenary subordinate to the manager, who, under the name of overseer, resides upon the estate, acts as master over the negroes, directs all their operations, and, till the commencement of the new system, used to punish all their transgres sions. It is very obvious that men so situated must exercise an important influence on negro civilization. If instead of being enlightened, humane, anxious for the moral improvement of those over whom they are placed in authority, and careful to secure that improve ment by the force of their own example, they are igno rant, cruel, irreligious, and immoral, can we wonder at the low state of civilization among the negroes in Ja maica ? If such be the Character of the overseers, book-keepers, &c., as we fear there is good reason to believe it too generally is, can we wonder that the negroes are not in love with work, or that they dislike to work under their present taskmasters ? It is almost impossible that, under any modification of slavery, causes of mutual dissatisfaction should not arise between the slave and his master. Under such a system as that pursued in Jamaica, it would indeed have been miraculous had they not sprung up in abundance.

EDINBURGH REVIEW. No. CXXV. Longman. London. 1835. There are few eminent statesmen of modern times whose political deeds, or rather misdeeds, have so com pletely dropped out of public recollection, as Lord Bolingbroke's. While all, even the merest smatterers in history, know something of the character and policy of Walpole and Chatham, few readers, we believe, ex cept those whom duty or inclination have led to insti tute researches into the politics of the first half of the eighteenth century, are acquainted with the tortuous and meteoric career of one who once occupied a larger space in the public mind, than perhaps any other states man of his age. If the memory of St. John still sur vive among us, it is chiefly in the pages of Pope. The generality of us remember him, not as the reckless sacrificer of British honour at the peace of Utrecht ; not as the tamperer with two dynasties, and the betrayer of both ; but as the " guide, philosopher, and friend,' so elegantly apostrophised in the " Essay on Man." While we may wonder at this general apathy, we 'can scarcely regret it, for there is little in the political ca reer of Bolingbroke that deserves to be shrined in our recollection. He was a man utterly without principle, and of such desperate ambition that there was no sa scrifice he was not prepared to make to it. As for love of country, he knew it not. England had no magic for him, except as the arena in which his own power was to be paraded ; and when she ceased to be this, he, without the slightest hesitation or remorse, jeopardised her tranquillity and all her dearest interests, by transferring his services to the Pretender, in whose Court he held the same high office, that he had held but a few months before in that of Queen Anne ! Of those strong ties, too, which bind, or should bind, party men together, he was equally regardless. So long as they accorded with his interests, well and good ; but the instant they militated against them, he snapped them, as though they were mere straws. Thus to wreak his spite on Lord Oxford, once his best friend, he broke up the Ministry to which both were attached, though Swift had warned him, and his own strong natural sagacity, had he allowed it fair play, must have taught him, what would be the inevitable consequences of such a suicidal act ; and in after life he sacrificed the whole Stuart dynasty, in order to wreak his vengeance on the Pretender, who had received him with open arms, and appointed him his Chief Secretary of State. Yet St. John was not without his redeeming points. He was eloquent to a degree seldom attained by English statesmen ; a warm, and even enthusiastic friend, where his self-interest was not concerned, when, as in the case of Pope, he could deliberately blast the memory of the man over whom he had hung weeping in his dying hours ; unrivalled in his powers of appli-. cation to business ; sound and clear-headed in his views, though his judgment was ever the slave of his passions ; in youth, a man of wit and pleasure ; in age, a logiCian and a philosopher ; and throughout life, the delight, the boast, and the ornament of the social circle. Nevertheless, despite all these useful and dazzling qualifications, he wore away the best por tion of his days in exile and penury ; thus adding one more to the long catalogue of those whose talents have served only to aggravate their sufferings, because they have not been supported on the solid foundation of principle. Bolingbroke's fortunes have already "adorn ed a tale," as in the case of " Devereux" and " De Vere ;" and may " point a moral," by teaching us that abilities without conduct, are but as the lightning flash which lights the seaman to his destruction amid rocks and breakers. The Number before us, in a notice of " Cooke's Memoirs of Bolingbroke," gives us some interesting particulars respecting the intrigues of this illustrious man for the restoration of the Jacobite dynasty. It is a well-reasoned and conclusive article, though too much restricted in its character ; for it says little or nothing of St. John in his general capacity of a states man ; but contents itself with simply discussing the question, whether or not, he was sincere in his efforts to restore the Pretender to his throne. We think not ; for his whole political life leads us to infer that he was sincere in nothing, but the furtherance of his own interests. " Williams's Hind and Panther" is a review of a poem in continuation of Dryden's celebrated alle gory, by the Vinerian Professor of Law at Oxford. Though it is here made the subject of deserved eulogy, we fear it will scarcely be popular, for the allegorical form of writing has long ceased to attract public attention. It has even thrown Spenser into the back ground—who then shall presume to re vive it ? The great defect of the allegory is its ab. stractedness, and want of human interest. In one only instance that we know of—if we except the per sonification of Una in the " Fairie Queen"—does it appeal to our sympathies ; and that is, in the " Vision of Mirza," where, though the cold allegorical form is adopted, truth and nature speak out in every line. The review of Professor Williams's Poem is introduced by some admirable remarks on Dryden's " Hind and Panther," which is praised as his most masterly, though least generally read, production. In the criticism on" 'rhirlwall's History of Greece," the reviewer breaks ground afresh on the old, exploded question, as to whether the Iliad and Odyssey were the compositions of one individual, or of a plurality. We agree with him in opinion —notwithstanding the high authority of the German, Wolf is against us— that to one poet, and but one only, must these pro ductions be ascribed, so all-convincing is the unifor mity of mind that pervades them. The reviewer, in his passing observations on the rise, progress, and general character and tendency of the Greek democracies, show much ingenious speculation. " Tory and Reform Associations" inculcates the necessity of the Reformers turning their own favourite weapon of combination against the • Conservatives ; taking as its text Lord Stanley's Letter to Sir Thomas Hesketh, wherein his Lordship deprecates the formation of Tory confederacies, as being neces sarily provocative of a reaction among the opposite party. " When bad men conspire, good men must combine," is sound doctrine all the world over ; we are glad, therefore, to see the reviewer advocating, in tern perate but energetic terms, the necessity of a strict union among all classes of Reformers. " If," says he, they be true to one another, and continue united, and on the alert, the dangers . of a Tory restoration may be averted. There must be no selfish paltering—no split ting of hairs. Every one should rally round the standard of Reform, which is in danger, and sacrificing minor points of theoretical difference, unite in the words of the address of the Metropolitan Society, ' in counteracting by every lawful mode the undue influence of the societies now founded and forming, under the name of Conservative Clubs and Associations through out the kingdom.' In other words, counter-associa tions must be formed. This may be an evil, but it will be infinitely less than the evil of handing over the country and its institutions to Tory domination ; sub- ' ject, too, to the fearful re-action which would inevitably follow on the heels of such a change." We regret to find that in the article headed " Last Session of Parliament," a Reform in the House of Lords is treated by the reviewer, as a`project wholly impracticable. He is of opinion that they can never be otherwise constituted than as they now are ; and that the only safe way to render them amenable to t , reason, is by returning an overwhelming majority 0f Reformers to the House of Commons. This is true' so far as it goes; but when, and how is such a majority to be obtained ? Is the country to be put to all the hazard and commotion of another election ; or is it t ° wait patiently till the seven years duration of Pai'lif ment has expired? Either notion is preposterous; for in the first place, another million of Tory money, Nvil the party too being constantly on the alert, and pow sessing all the energies which desperation lends eves: the feeblest, might produce nearly, if not quite, the same disastrous results as were witnessed at the last election ; and secondly, the country, in its present eager and feverish state, would no more consent to War t six years for an improvement in the hereditary legislly ture, than an Alderman would consent to wait six day 9 without his dinner. If the Lords are really to be re formed, they must be reformed without loss of tio.; Either the emergency is pressing, or it is not. I f is, then not an hour should be lost in preparing for it if it is not, then there is no need to waste that time il l its discussion, which might be devoted to more rative matters. For ourselves, we cannot but .thin ic that a Reform in the Upper House is among the ye rY first questions that should be entered on at the ensul 0 g Session. Till some satisfactory deciSion be come- t ° on this subject, vain will be all attempts to further th e March of improvement. It may still creep indeed, but it will never be able to proceed at a rational pace, for the Lords will be constantly throwing up some obstacle or other to check its progress. As for waiting..--as the reviewer discreetly suggests—till the old Conservativ es have dropped off, and more promising shoots of a riste: cracy have supplied their places; this is about as a bsurd as to wait, like the bumpkin in Horace, on tho bank s of a river, till the flood has rolled by, and left a d r y chatinel for crossing. In the " Memoirs of Sir James Mackintosh," " e have a fine Whig flourish on the public and privat e deserts of one who, for a long series of years, was on e of the most efficient contributors to the pages of t he Edinburgh Review. Sir James was an eminent w ee certainly, but he was far from being the prodigy th e/ it is here attempted to be shown he was. The very highest praise we can accord him is, that he was th e first of the second-rate order of minds. He h as written no one work, like Hume, or Burke, or Be''' tham, or Mill, that can honestly be pronounced th e best of its class. His " Vindicix Gallicz" is alreatV forgotten ; the select few only know or care anythi n about his vaunted Supplement ; and as for his O s ' tory,- it cannot be compared—notwithstanding .th e prodigious flourish of trumpets with which it 'wa s ' ushered before the public—in the graces of s tyle, t° Hume's England ; in the power of compelling th e reader's attention, to Robertson's Charles the Fifth; or in its profoundness of research, and lumino us expositions of character, to Gibbon's Rome. Th e best things Sir James Macintosh ever wrote, were h is characters of Lord Somers, Swift, Hume, and Johnso n ' which were all composed hastily, but with inimitab le grace and accuracy of delineation, during his voyag e home from Bombay. His character of Dr. Johnson' in particular, is the best we have yet seen of that greet moralist and lexicographer, more especially that po r " . tion of it which defines the quality of his critical file''' . ties.
