Our favourite poem in th e p resent r N leetion •is decidedly that on Death. It 411 ati d ••n in stirring, we might almost say, dramatic .:!strast ; the incidents " hold dazzling fence" with each other, and come thronging • upon the 4 sl with all the carelessness of a -rich and ex ant fancy. The different aspects iii which the phantom" makes his appearance, are enn- Nted with a fearful distinctness; the shipwreck, 111 a r t i cular, of a vessel, described as " shape andta,, wild as by th e s t orm b ego t" (thi s i s ." 411 7 a splendid line), is replete with appropriate jerY. - In this poem also occurs the fol :ving sweet picture : ' The stars like ruminating spirits walk .„n.O mellow sky, from whence the queenly•moon ,"Oh maternal aspect, eyes the earth, 'ran cedinto dreamy stillness by her smile ; T l, not a b reeze or bi r d i s on t h e w i n g ; "Ihrswe et flowers have shut their dewy lids; r 'nd dist ant trees , upon the dark - brow ' d hills ‘ -i ke shad ow y se ntinels are ranged.—And now - Th e rei gn of heart-romance! the lulling hour When aspirati o ns from the charmed heaven S uffused, awake the high-toned mind with thoughts ~„ f wonder, yet divine : but see ! beneath Inn hill, down where the wrinkled brooklet. flash In liquid revelry, the mighty deep Lies bare unto the moon ; and on her breast, In swan-like glory glides a white-wing'd boat, Calm as a cloud along its blue career.

Ileneath, naught but the sighing of the waves Wok e from their slumber, or th' harmonious swell 0 f tide—the panting of the world's great heart ! freaks in the pleasing calm."

" That glorious day when death himself shall die : we are almost tempted to cry out with Horatio, when my Lord Hamlet informed him that most men in Denmark were villains, " There needs no ghost come from the grave, my Lord, " To tell us that." p ar ting with Mr. Montgomery we have merely to request—and we do so in a spirit of the most friendly sincerity—that in his future publications he will bring a little, a very little. more liberality to his task. It will improve his judgment, and not detract from his imagination. The days are gone when th e f u l m i na ti ons o f narrow devotees were the passports to popula rity and preferment. Even the fancy of Mr. Irving, which is of a first-rate quality, has not prevented his celebrity from drifting by a short cut into the Dead Sea. Let Mr. Montgomery improve by the hint, and aim to coincide with, not run counter, to an age of which he is no slight ornament. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. CHANGES.

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. After an absence of some six or seven years, Mr. JOHN RUSSELL, well known to the dramatic world by his unrivalled imitation of INCLEDON, made his appearance here last night as Pelegrino in the opera of My Native Land. He is a lively, not to say, a versatile actor. With a voice, however, so harsh and dissonant as to neutralize all the good effects of his very .obvious theatrical abilities. He was last night well received, and went through his part with more than his former spirit. Mi ss FORDE played Biondina for the first time; and will, we have no doubt, be a great acquisition to the stage. She challenges favo ur b y he r beauty, and secures it by her talents. H e r sin g in g i s buoy ant and easy; not too much loaded with embellish ments, yet far from being either meagre or elaborate. Mr. Wool) made a very so-so Aulerio. The house was tolerably well attended. MISS SMITHSON. Extract of a letter from Miss Smithson to a female friend in London, in reply to solicitations and arguments to induce her to leave France, and at once try her fortune on the London boards in the higher characters of the drama : " PARIS, OCT. 6. " As various reports respecting my refusing to visit London at present will, no doubt, get into cir culation, I will relate to you the truth. Mr. Price wrote twice to me last winter to return to Drury lane ; and Mr. Kemble has offered me 20/. a night for 20 performances, together with a benefit, for the present season, and a very handsome engage ment for three years, to commence the season after that, positively. But I have refused all, for this reason, , ---I am daily acquiring fame and profit here; of the former more than you can believe; of the latter, quite as much as makes my rejection no sacrifice of a pecuniary nature. Besides, I consider that London will be always in England; but that an equally favourable opportunity for English theatricals may not always exist on the Continent ; and then, as I am to perform at Tours Bordeaux, Brussels, Rot terdam, &c., &c., during the period between this and the Ist of December (when I must return to open our English theatre at Paris, having accepted an en gagement for the entire season,) I shall see some thing more of the world, and have the pleasure of trying the effect of our tragedies upon strange audi ences. This is the fact : therefore do not, I pray you, my dear friend, despise the Parisian taste so much—that taste which founded the fame of Telma, Mars, and . Pasta—as to imagine for a moment that I fear to make my appearance before my own ever liberal countrymen. No. Next year 1 will return. But surely you do not wonder that I linger with affection in a land which, stranger as I was even to its language, has so disinterestedly encouraged those efforts, and warmed into life that talent (if such I may venture to call it) which, in my own, shrunk into obscurity from the chill of bitter neglect. If you should chance to visit any of fhe places I have named in my tour, or come to Paris in the winter, re member that there is one person at least who will re ceive you with esteem and sincere pleasure, and that is " Your faithful friend, " HARRIET .C. SNIITHSON." THE RIGHT HON. ROBERT PEEL. (From the Liverpool Advertiser.) DINNER AT THE TOWN-HALL. At seven o'clock, about 90 gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous entertainment, among whom we re cognized Lord Skelmersdale, Blackburae, Esq. M. P., J. F. Cawthorne, Esq. M.P., Thos. Greene, Esq. M.P., Thomas Leigh, Esq. M.P., the Hon. Colonel Cust, Colonel Waller, and other military officers, the Mayor of Lancaster, - Yates, Esq., the Recorder, the Members of the Council, and se veral gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood. Mr. Peel sat on the right, and Lord Skelmers dale on the left of his worship, who presided with his accustomed blandness and ability. After the removal of the cloth, the following toasts were given " His Majesty the King, Duke of Lancaster," four times four, drank with thunders of applause. " Lord Hill, and the Army." The MAYOR rose and called upon the company to till their glasses, for he was about to propose the health of a gentleman whose name was a passport to esteem, and would, he was assured, in that room meet with that attention to which it was so justly entitled. It was with pride and pleasure he stood forward to propose the health of the illustrious statesman who had that day honoured Liverpool with his presence, and was now his distinguished guest. In the hour of peril, his counsel, his energy, his zeal, and his brilliant talents, were devoted to the service of his country, and that country now justly regarded him as one of its most fearless champions and brightest ornaments. He would not further delay the expression of their feelings. He could not adequately do justice to the subject, and would therefore, without further preface, propose the health of— " The Right Hon. Robert Peel." Nothing could exceed the enthusiasm which fol lowed the announcement of this toast; the entire company started simultaneously from their seats, and it was drunk with three times three, amidst the most deafening applause. " One cheer more" was loudly called for, which continued for several minutes. Mr. PEEL rose, evidently overpowered by the in tensity of his feelings; and spoke as follows : 7 -Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen,--There is nothing more painful and embarrassing than to attempt to give expression to feelings which at once overpower by their force, and deprive their possessor of the capa bility of doing them adeqqte justice. Such feel ings, permit me to state, Awe been excited by my visit to Li v erpool (Cheers.) If language afforded a sentiment sufficiently trite and familiar, willingly would I embrace it to declare all I feel--all I have admired. It does not do so, and I am in conse quence compelled to labour under a fear that I can not at all convey to you an adequate idea of the im pressions excited by my visit to your great and flou rishing town. I have passed the day in witnessing the wonderous scenes which Liverpool presents; and I have been gratified, astonished, and, allow me to add, surprised, at what every where met my eyes. I have frequently heard of the rising greatness of Liverpool, but never conceived it had vaulted to such an eminence as it now proudly and magnifi cently holds, Belonging-, as I do, to a family intimately connected with the manufactures and commerce of the county, I was anxious to visit it, and I now feel that, as a public man, I should have been guilty of a dereliction of duty, if I had nqt inspected tt place which is so intimately connected with the interests and pros perity of my country. (Cheers) I was desi rous to see . a town where the interests of the commercial world concentrate, and whore the in telligence, the spirit, the enterprise, and the worth of its inhabitants have ennobled the character of the British merchant, and shed such a lustre upon the country. (Great cheers.) Gentlemen, I h ave b een gratified; I have viewed your town ; its noble in, stitutions and splendid monuments devoted to charity have been inspected, and I shall leave Liverpool un der impressions which cannct be easily erased. (Ap plause?) My Hon. Friend has spoken of my public conduct (cheers) ; his kindness has magnified my services as a Minister of the Crown. I am truly grateful for his very flattering observations ; but I hope I may be excused if, at the p resent moment, ai)stain from dwelling upon the Subj ect . M y h eart is too much overpowered with your kindness, and I cannot even attempt to do justice to my feelings.. I have been this NY.t.) the town of d a y identifle4 ; 1. Liverpool ! my name has been enrolled as one of its freemen, and I therefore must, for the future, feel a personal interest in its welfare and prosperity; (Loud cheers.) I, however, know the zeal and ta lents of the gentlemen whom you have chosen to watch over and guard your interests; therefore it might be deemed ostentatious on my part if I were to tender you all the services I could command— (Great cheering)—but I still must be permitted to declare that I shall esteem it as a most fortunate cir cumstance in my life, if I can, by any act of mine, discharge a portion of the debt of gratitude which your kindness has laid me under.—(Cheers.)—l now beg leave, Gentlemen, to propose a toast in teresting to you-1 will say to us all (for I will now take the liberty of calling myself one of yourselves), and every man who feels an interest in the welfare and happiness of the empire —the benefit and ad vantage of the civilized world. Gentlemen, I shall give you, " Prosperity to the Town and Trade of Liver pool." " Gentlemen," said Mr. Peel, in concksion, when the cheering had somewhat subsided, . " I thank you sincerely for the manner. in which you have drank the first toast I have had the honour of proposing in Liverpool, and beg to request you will drink it with three times three ; ' which was accordingly done amids the most animating cheers. " His Grace the Duke of Wellington"—three times three—thunders of applause. • ;1--lisMaj;tY's Ministers," three times three. Mr. PEEL-1 shall faithfully report to my col leagues the honouryou have this evening conferred on them in drinking their healths with such demon strations of respect and esteem. I feel confident that no Ministers would be worthy to preside over the affairs of this great country, who were indifferent to the opinions of so high and influential a body of gentlemen as now honour his Majesty's Ministers with their approval. I have before lamented that the duty of returning thanks in their behalf had not devolved upon the illustrious individual at their head, but when I shall see my Noble Colleague and illustrious Friend, I shall, when conveying to him the particulars of the gratifying scenes I have wit nessed, not fail to state that he will not adequately receive the meed of applause -due to hiS services as Prime Minister until he has paid a visit—(cheers) — to Liverpool and Manchester, and' witnessed those bursts of approval—those proud tokens of respect and admiration, which have alwhys followed the an nouncement of his name. Mr. PEEL sat down amidst much cheering; and shortly after rose and begged permission to propose a toast, which he felt assured would not be deemed intrusive. He was under most particular obligations to the gentleman whose name he was about to in troduce; to him he was indebted for the pleasure which he had derived from this visit. From him he received a hospitable and flattering invitation to Liverpool, and as he had many conversations with him on public questions, he could form some esti mate of the zeal and abilities with which he dis charges his high and important functions. (Cheers.) His private worth had justly endeared him to his fellow-townsmen, and he esteemed it a most gratify ing duty in having an opportunity of proposing the health of a man whose private and public character rendered him worthy to be Mayor of Liverpool. " Thomas Colley Porter, Esq., Mayor of Liver pool."--(Three times three, great cheering.) His WORSHIP, in returning thanks, said, that if on ordinary occasions he felt a difficulty in expressing his feelings, he must, in the present instance, be sup posed to labour under peculiar sensations. He really felt himself overpowered by the kindness and the high terms with which his Right Hon. Guest had introduced his name. Such compliments coming from so distinguished a gentleman, were to him in-, deed most flattering, and called forth his most lively gratitude. He trusted he had done his duty, and the approval of the honourable society which sur rounded him was the highest mark of respect which he could possibly receive. (Cheers.) " The Members for the County." J. BLACEBURNE, Esq., returned thanks, and said, hediad always endeavoured to regulate his Parlia mentary conduct according to what he considered. the welfare of the country, and the upholding of the constitution of the empire. " The Members for the Borough." " Lord Skelmersdale—a name associated by many recollections with the welfare and interests of the county." Lord SKELMERSDALE returned thanks, and took that opportunity of stating, that he should ever feel most proud in rendering any services in his power, both as a landowner and a neighbour, to the town of Liverpool. The MAYOR, lin rising to onnounce the next toast, said he was proud to propose, the health-ofa gentle man, a native of the county of Lancaster a who in the worst of times stood by his country ,when that country wanted the presence and assistance of such worthy sons. He had now retired into the calm bosom of domestic life, but had carried with him the respect and esteem of his admiring countrymen. He would now give " The venerable Sire of his Right Hon. guest." Mr. PEEL,—Mr. Mayor and gentlemen, you have really exhausted all my. feelings; but as a son, I feel most thankful for the honour conferred upon my father; of him, I hope I may say without an impu tation or presumption, that he possesses the true feelings of an Englishman.—(Cheers.) He never desponded, but resting upon his native energies, looked forward with manly confidence, and was not disappointed. Here lam sure I need not say that a man may by a career of honourable industry arrive at a high station in the estimation of his country. My father's course is known .to you all, and proud is his son to find that it merits your approbation. " The Members for the borough of Lancaster." Messrs. CAWTHoRNE and GRIZENE severally re turned thanks. Lord SKELMERSDALE, as a freeman of Liverpool, proposed " The health of the Corporation of Liverpool." Mr. Alderman ASPINAL returned thanks. " The Members for the borough of Newton." Mr. THOMAS Latch ieturaed thanks in brief and appropriate terms. Alderman WRIGHT having claimed permission to give a toast, said, he was sure he need only mention the name of the illustrious individual to ensure a bumper : he would give " The health of the venerable Earl of Eldon," with three times three.--(Great 'cheering.) The MAYOR wished lie could adequately do justice to the next toast; he feared such would be impos sible, and would therefore, without preface, give " The health of Mrs. Peel, that distinguished or nament of her sex." Mr. PEEL returned thanks, and said, that Mrs. Peel was highly gratified at the cordial reception that she had met with in Liverpool. She Was not very strong, but she would not rest satisfied, notwith standing the inclemency of the weather, until she had viewed all tha wonders of the town.. She re tires from Liverpool deeply impressed with gratitude for the attention paid her, and he would take ewe She should be apprised of the honour they had that.. evening conferred on . . " The Mayor of Lancaster," > His Worship returned . thanks. --- Yates, Esq., the relative of the Right Hon. Gentleman." • Mr. YATEs briefly replied, and said that the greatest pride of his life was to be connected with the Right Hon. Gentleman. The MAYou—Qentiemen, fill your glasses. I am about to propose the-health of a distinguished towns man—a gentleman whose eminence in his profession you all know, and whose talents and varied acquire. tnents are no doubt fully appreciated by the Right Hon. Secretary. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I give you—. Gregson, Esq."—Three times three. Mr. GREGSON*I am sure, Mr. Mayer and gen, tlemen, I shall be considered not to deviate from candour, when j declare that I consider myself quite undeserving of this high mark of your respect and esteem. With regard to those measures with which my name has been coupled, I am quite sure that my services in forwarding their completion have been considerably overrated. There are numbers in the prOfession to which I have the honour to belong who would execute my duties with greater ability and Act, I opt) , lay claim to zeal i perstyerAnce, tend industry in forwarding the views of the Right Honourable Secretary. (Cheers.) Of his claims upon the national gratitude in consequence of the reforms which he contemplates, I will not at present dwell ; but I cannot avoid observing, that if the study of the law is dry and difficult, the country is more indebted to him, who, though not scooled in its discipline, and who, filling a high station in the councils of his Sovereign, still can exhibit a high order of legal talent, and can find time to devise those great arrangements which must have such an important influence on society. This was the proudest boast in the labours of the Right lion. Gentleman. His reforms have met with general approval, and the most distinguished characters, with the entire obli vion of party feelings, have generously volunteered him their support.—(Cheers.) " The Lancashire Witches." " Alderman Wright." Mr. Wright returned thanks. " Mr. Maury." Mr. Maury returned thanks. " The Bailiffs of the Borough?' Mr. 801.1 re turned thanks. " Colonel Waller." Culonel Waller returned thanks. Soon after eleven o'clock the Mayor and Mr. Peel retired, and the entice party shortly afterwards sepa. rated. •.

The run ning in the second heat was made precisely as in the other, with► this difference, that Icarus won the heat cleverly by a length. The third heat Icarus won by a length very cleverly.

The second heat was not so good. Gertrude led to the distance, where Sunshine took up the running, and won easy—rode by Dockery, Gertrude by. Clarke, Jupiter by Old Stuckbury, Sir Harry by Brown, and Scaramouch by Farral. . - - A Match for 50 says. h. fr. One mile.—Mr. L. Charlton's Constantine received forfeit from Mr. Bacon's Snowey. There was very little betting, and none worth quoting. The day's sport was very good, although the races were not contested with that severity which distinguished the first day's running. Of the arrangements we have only to repeat what we stated yesterday—that they were admirable in every department. That this Meeting will be continued annually we are enabled to state positively, and that pro mises of support are held out, which cannot fail of placing it on a most respectable footing.

Every mail from Ireland brings evidence in controvertible that the Catholic leaders are most anxious to inculcate upon the multitude a re spect for the peace of society and an entire obe dience to the laws. It may be added, -with, ' if possible 2 greater satisfaction, that the peasantry have been unanimous in their prompt submi s :, sion to these wise and honest counsels. It is perfectly obvious that the Catholics are go i ng the right way t o work, by exerting e v er y r i g h t which th e C onst i tut i on g i ves th em , f or t h e ac quisition of those rights from which, according to its present modification, it excludes theta, They- have lawful power enough to serve. as a lever for obtaining more. It • is true vvisAorn, therefore, t o abjur e a recourse to ot h er powe r s , of which th e exercise would be no less unavaii ing than unwarrantable. We have said already that there will be no great trouble in managing the passions of the Catholics, if the fury of the bound s Cumberland ruffians be restra i ned from bursting -into acts of positive o u t rage , Theifs, indeed, is a violnce vich knows imposes n on no tl nnlisteuina maniac.. They have arms, and purch ase more every day they refer to no right but that of th e strongest, and strait-waistcoat e'h e respect no authority but that of the torch or bullet, If these desperadoes be not quieted by some means more potent than good sense, they will, force a crisis in spite of all that diseretion and patriotism can accomplish to prevent it. The misery is, that justice and liberty will be the only sufferers from such a cause. It the two confederacies come into strife, the battle will inevitably assume a religious colour. The Go vermnent—some members of it eagerly, others with reluctance—will take up the Protestant,. or (what must, under . the circumstances, degene rate into) the Orange side. The MOderation ,f even:the most moderate, in both parties, be infected by the fanatic, or unheeded by him ; the whole ground • that has (Heaven knows with what an agony of exertion) been gained for Mu tual charity, will he . once more seized and forti fied by unchristian hatred, and all mast he corn menced anew. With such a prospect thus preg nant and inevitable before him, is it: not Mon strous that any Minister of a country to Which peace and confidence are so essential ,as to Gre a t Britain, should m ak e a mer i t of concealing his designs, as if there. was no greatness but in mystery ? Why dues not the Duke of Wellington speak out, and tell the empire frankly what it has to Expect from him? Dogged ness is a useful qualification before an enemy but in matters of policy—that is, of opinion—. doggedness shews a Want of reason and under standing. If hiS Grace fears the imputation. of being bullied by the stern warmth with which the friends of religious liberty press the Catholic claims, we should think it rather late to be nice about such matters, since he who has the three blockades to answer for, the ruin of Portugal, and the invasion of Turkey, need not stand on much etiquette as to the article of being bullied ; unless he be of the same: kidney as the old gen tleman in the novel, who committed all sorts Of absurdities lest people should accuse him of be ing governed by his wife, Mr. Peel is said to have sadly disappointed the good folks of Liver pool, by an exhibitibn of rhetorical talent far in ferior to that which had so . long served hi hearers, for a model of political and colloquial. eloquence. Mr. Peel has some useful qualities, -but none that are splendid or distinguished. He is, indeed, a sample of neat and well-finished mediocrity. He came out in life with the .smooth exterior of a piece of cotton velvet ; hut like that description of imitative goods, the wear and tear of politics at last exposed his real texture. IVir. Peel has • prudence enough to know when he ought to hold hiS tongue ; brit does he see some of the indirect consequences of his Prudence ? On no occasion in the course of present tour through Lancashire, has the Right Honourable Gentleman let out one word, from which it could be inferred that the. Governrrient persisted in those views upon the Catholic question, orwhich Mr. Peel has heretofore shdwn himself the most 'unchanging organ in' Parliament. But the silence of the Right Hon. Gentleman is thouvht to have let out something— namely, that the anti, Catholic leaders are aware of the mischief which might arise from their now professing their intolerant opinions ; and that, let us oh:irve, is something gained since even this day twelve month.j But it does m ore . I n our j udgment, when coupled with Mr. Dawson's speech, it leads to conjecture that a plan of emancipation has been formed, or else why should Mr. Peel be afraid of tossing off his old favourite bonne &niche of ascendancy, and in a company where it is plain that no opposition was present • to alarm him ? Mr. Peel's silence is of a different kind from the Duke's : it is a confession of s ome change—his Grace's is a refusal to confess it, our Irish extracts will be found the most exquisite slap in the face that ever was administered to the heroes of :the "glorious memory." At a She: riff's 'dinner, in 'Dublin, after the toast was drank, Mr. Latouche got up, and, craving pardon for the liberty, begged leave, • as a descendant of one of King Willi am ' s followers, to illustrate one merit of that great Sovereign—for sufficient praise had not been bestowed upon his memory. Mr. Latouche hereupon read the following pas sage from Bishop Burnet : it was on the Tole ration Act :—" The historian Mentions that this Bill gave great contentment to the Icing; it enacted that conscience in all should be wholly free and unshackled. And it was his (the King's) own opinion, that the c onscience was God's province alo ne , an d o ught not to be imp posed upon any on e . His ex perience in Ho ( - land .made him lo o k upon to l e ration as on e .4 . bestowed by Providence. he greatest blessings much troubled that the Clergy He was, however, d should be So ill-tempered and ungovernable.

Pretty A i t iCh the same measure of justice has been served out to Ki ng William and to William :Pi tt ; The enemies of the Catholics, with equal 'effrontery, invoke the tolerant Monarch's name, and that of the emancipating Minister.—Times. While rite Orangemen are endeavouring- to overawe the G overnment, and indulging at their orgies suited - to Pande monium than this' earth, it is gratifying to per ceive that the liberal Protestants of Ireland, on their parts, are not idle. There appears in the Irish Papers a Declaration, tovvhich a long li st of names of Protestant Noblemen . and Gentle men is already appended, and which is now in a course of; signature, solemnly stating as their conviction, that the' disqualifying laws whi c h affect his ,Majesty's. Roman Catholic subjects-are, productive of consequences prejudicial in the highest degree to the interest 3 of Ireland, and. the empire to which she is united :" and that
