LITERATURE. QUARTERLY REVIEW—No. LXXIV. One qualification we may generally contrive to predict and discover in the pages of this periodical, namely, an abundance of pleasant, varied, and avail able information on all subjects of which it conde scends to take cognizance. New, too, that party spirit has in some degree lost its asperity ; now that men of genius are no longer to be appreciated accordf, ing to their caste in politics, but with reference to the precise quantum ofability they-bring to their respective publications, Ise may reasonably begin to anticipate a due share of liberality on the part of these once bigotted Reviewers. Their present number will not disappoint such anticipation ; it has a tinge, certainly of partizanship, but not amounting to absolute dis coloration ; it is, in fact, temperate but firm in politics, liberal in ethics, and mild (except in one instance, where mildness would have been misplaced) in the general tone of its criticism. The first article on " Landscape Gardening," is—we say it unre servedly, though without knowledge of the author— the production of a man of imagination, of refined taste, and exquisite relish for the picturesque. He enters elaborately into the mode of planting and or namenting gardens ; throws down the gauntlet in a chivalrous spirit of defiance to Uvedale Price, the champion of the picturesque ; and puts forth dogmas of his own with all the zeal of a horticultural re former. The following observations on park estab lishments, arc lit up with gleams of truth and poetic beauty that rnust recommend them to every reader : " The space of ground set apart for a park ci deer must, to answer its purpose, possess the picturesque qualities which afford the greatest scope for the artist : there ought to be a variety of broken ground, of copse-wood and of growing timber—of lantl and of water. The soil anti herbage must be left in its natural state : the long fern, amongst which the fawns delight to repose, must not be destroyed. In short, the stag, by nature one of the freest denizens of the forest, can only be kept under even com parative restraint, by taking care that all around him in timates a complete state of forest and wilderness. But the character of abode which is required by these noble ani mals of the chase is precisely the same which, front it, beautiful effects of light anti shadow, from its lonely and sequestered character, from the variety and intricacy of its glades, from the numerous and delightful details which it affords on every point, makes the strongest and most pleas ing impression on all who are alive to natural beauty. The ancient English poets, Chaucer and Spenser in particular, never luxuriate more than when they get into a forest ; by the accuracy with which they describe particular trees, and from their noticing the different characters of the dif ferent soecies, and the various effects of light and darkness upon the walks and glades of the forest, it is evident that they regarded woodland scenery not merely as associated with their favourite sports, but as having in itself beau ties which they could appreciate, though their age was not possessed of that fascinating art of committing them to canvass. Even the common people, as we noticed in n former article, seldom mention ' the good forest,' a' 1 ' the merry green-wood,' without some expression of fondness, arising, doubtless, from the pleasure they took in the scenes themselves, as well as in the pastimes which they afforded." The " Memoirs of Lord Collingwood,'" though the subject be somewhat trite, are ably and spiritedly canvassed. The Reviewer eulogises his Lordship as one of the first of public and private characters, and recommends the frequent perusal of his domestic epistles to every midshipman in the navy. " Lord Byron and some of his Cotemporaries," is a caustic , and persevering attack on the most shameless spe cimen of effrontery, baseness, ingratitude, and cold blooded malignity that ever yet disgraced our English literature. The Reviewer brings home certain facts to the recollection of Mr. Leigh Hunt, that if he have a heart within him, must be almost enough, we should conceive, to chill its beatings for ever. We strongly recommend this article as an alkali to these who may have imbibed the venom of Mr. Hunt's biography. " The Corn Laws" takes up (as amatter of course) the high Tory view of the question. It scouts the cry of" cheap bread ;" it sneers at the idea of" an extensive importation of Foreign Corn :" and speaks the language of a Lethbridge, though di vested of his peculiar and elocatory graces of intellect. We cannot say much .for it, whether in point of principle or argument. " Beltrami's Pil grimage," which has already been the subject of a notice in this Paper—is justly but somewhat se verely analysed. The Reviewer blames Mr. Bel trami's prolixity (this we well remember was dismally prominent throughout his Travels) and hints a gentle scepticism with regard to the nature and value of his discoveries. The article entitled " Police," puts forth some enlarged and masterly hints on this useful but under-rated topic. We have no space for en analysis, but may venture to recom mend it for the practical nature of its information, and the logical consecutiveness of its arguments.— The remaining articles we must also dispatch in a word :—namely, that they will amply repay peru sal : with this specific praise attached to " The Campaigns of the British Army at Washing ton," that it is the production of a man who has seen service in that quarter; who writes from the full ness of his own personal experience on the subject; and who, above all, is not so ridiculously prejudiced in favour of England, as altogether to hold the Ame ricans in pedantic and unqualified contempt. At a party at the west end of the town, the conversation turning on Sir FREDMILC LAMB'S having re turned the money that had been sent nut from England, a Lady, celebrated for her wit s observed, " that the Portu guese had got their Lamb without their Mint." Two brothers, farm servants in Lanhydrock, having a cutaneous disorder, were advised by some ignorant person, to anoint themselves with corrosive sublimate ! which b:iving done, they were soon after so strongly affect ed, that one died on Tuesday last, and the other is not ex ratted to recover.—Cornwall Gazette. In Herefordshire, the country is looking re markably well. The spring is very forward, and the ex treme mildness of the season has been very favourable to the lambs. With respect to the apple-trees, it is too early to form any opinion, as the blossom has not yet begun to show itself. It is said that the developements exhibited on the skull of MosEs SIIETPARD, the murderer, are amongst the most satisfactory illustrations of the new science of Phrenology that have been yet discovered. He once out of revenge cut out a donkey's tongue, cut off both its ears, and slit both nostrils into one, and then drove the poor beast into a ditch !—Dorset Chronicle. THE LATE SIR ROBERT GORDON.—WheII this eccentric gentleman, so celebrated in the traditionary , annals of the north of Scotland, was in company in Eng land, with a few noblemen and others, the conversation accidentally turned on large faun-steadings. Sir ROBERT remarked, quite in a serious tone, that his faun-steadings at Gordonstown, in Scotland, were so very large, that he was certain 'none of the gentlemen present NI ()old go from 013 C end of them to the other, in the course of a day. It is scarcely necessary to add, that the whole of the company felt somewhat sceptical regarding the truth of the B arone t' s s tatement; but one gen tl em an, more open in his manner than any of th e rest, unceremoniously pronounced it of a piece with the relations of the venerable and veritable Baron MuNcitansEN. Sir ROBERT, however, with the , repeated his former affirmation; and the ns lne" ewa.s, that the two disputants agreed to settle t en h ot e ni : seg' a t ti i e ja r °c by ocular demonstration, after having respec tively staked a large amount on the truth of the assertion of the Baronet. Sir Roam and his sceptical, or rather infidel opponent, accordingly visited the steadings of Gor donstown, where the latter was compelled to acknowledge that be had lost the wager ; for the steadings were built in a round or circular form, and consequently no indivi dual could go from one end to the other of that which had no end.

A HAPPY TURN.--At one of the late County Assizes, where an i n dictment for assault had been preferred against a woman for the ill-usage of her husband, who is superannuated, his Counsel, in the heat of decla mation, happened to say that half the t•ex were Devils, but seeing a number of genteel females in the Court, after a short pause, he went on, " but the other half are Angels, aud °viva] of thew are now ',amt." (From Coe Gazette de Preface of Thur May, March 21.) CONSTANTINOPLE, FEB. 23.—The persecutions of the Catholic Armenians continue, as well as the rigoroui manners of the Government, though the tkemselves have made remonstrances which have proved fruitless. The Armenian Patriarch be comes more cruel, and consternation is painted on the countenances of his united brethren. The Mus.. sulmen un the Asiatic coast have endeavoured to afford some alleviation to the fate of th e unhappy destitute emigrants, but there is a great mortality among them, especially among the children. The formation of the new English Ministry-, wits the Duke of Wellington at its head, was known here on the 4th Febt nary, but this event seems to have made little impreision on the Reis Effendi anti the Divan, for the state of affairs becomes worse every day, and no regard is observed towards the Christians. The Porte has ratified the treaty with Denmark, Spain, and Naples, concluded accoi ding to the 4th article of the Convention at Akerman, and bas caused the act of ratification to be delivered, with a ncte, to the E.uvov of Spain. Though the Porte, by this new proof of pacific intentions, promit,c4 proteetism to commerce, and pretends to remove the obstacles to the navigation of the 131aek Sea, yet; this result seems to be i►►compatible with the exist ing regulations, according to which all ships, t , v whatever nation they may belong, hound to tl e Black Sea, cannot obtai►r lir►uans for their vassage except upon very okerons terms. Th e Captains are obliged, among other things, to take on board for Odessa, goods which the Porte sells to them at a very high prier, and must engage to make their return cargo in part, of sails, tar, corn, and other things, which :ire repurchased of them at Constantinople according to a ti. , :ed tariff, by which they lose nearly 25 per cent. ; and they must besides give secarity for the performance of this condition. Transit trade is wholly prohibited, and though the Reis Effendi said, only a few days flgo, that. th e nas sage is free, and that the Bosphorus never has been closed, the announcement by the Dutch, Austrian, and Sardinian legations of the alitrre conditions is equivalent to a prohibition, since it is clear that no Captain will think of availing himself of this pre tended 'favour. The - trade of Odessa and Smyrna must be ruined by these circumstances. The indem nities for the cargoes of corn which have been taken from the European ships will, according to all appear ances, never be given. The Reis Effendi, by a eirculai, has invited the European Legations to give him an exact list of all their subjects in the capital and in the province,. in order, he says, to facilitate the exercise of the pro tection which the Porte has promised to the Franks, This demand, the true object of which they fear that they are not acquainted with, embarras , .ca the Euro pean Envoys, and though they yesterday invited all the subjects of their respective nations to declare their names, residences, and profession, it is believed that no great haste will be made in drawing up these lists, and that they will act with the greatest pmdeiice on this occasion.—Augaburgh Gazette.

The capital is tranquil, but the system of the Government is un changed. ODESSA, MAitot (3.—At length two vessels have arrived from Constantinople. We do not know whether the closing of the Bos phorus is general or partial. The letters brought by these vessels are not yet delivered, and we are ig norant of the date of their departure. CONSTANTINOPLE, FEB. 23.—The Porte intends to convert into barracks the houses of the exiled Armenians, which meet with no purchasers; but as no Turkish soldiers have hitherto been cantoned in Pera, and their presence would give rise to frequent disorders, the European Ambassadors have made remonstrances to the Reis Effendi, who has an swered that he would lay them before the Sultan a but did not think they would be attended to. Six thousand men are to be levied in the capital, who are to be mounted on the horses furnished by the Principalities, and to proceed immediately to the Danube. We learn from Angora, that of 11,000 Armenian families exiled to that place, only 4,000 have arrived, in the most lamentable condition:: FRENCH FUNDS, PARIS, MARL a 21.—FtTe per Cents., 1021. 45c. 35c. 40c. 35c. ; Three per Cent..., 691. ; Bank Stock, 1,900 f.; Rentes de Naples, 75f. itL.J. 35c. 25c. ; Rentes d'EApagne, Si ; Royal Spanish Loan, 72if.

There were upwards of 320 per sons present, Lord NORMANBY in the Chair. It was intended that the Duke of Clarence should have taken the chair, and that he would have been accompanied by the Duke of Sussex; but their Royal Highnesses were unavoidably compelled to be absent. The galleries were filled with ladies. After the removal of the cloth,. and the einging in fine style of " Non nobis Domine," The Noble CHAIRMAN rose to propose the health of his Majesty. " The King."—Air, " God save the King." " The Royal Family," was the next toast, which was followed by a general call for Miss Love'g song. That lady sung from the gallery the beautiful ballad, " Oh ! no, we never mention her," in such a manner as drew down a unanimous and loud er core. Lord NORMANBY, in the Haute of the fund, ex. pressed his gratitude to his Royal HighneA the Duke of Clarence for los patronage of the Charity, nk with sn l o o n t e i gx d ,c cheers, , andtstyle ie followed o w; i e r d . ri b 7 Y . and concluded by proposing " The health of tfa, Duke of Clarence, and a speedy recovery to him," which " Long life to the Lord a:i‘rst:yas'i Hain," The next toafq was, " The Navy of Great lid,. tain," which brought up . 105 .

The CHAIRMAN then ga-e—" The Army of Great Britain." Miss Coveney, a young lady scarcely 11 yeas c f. age, daughter of Mr. Coveney, of the Haymarket, was called en, and sang, " I'd be a butterfly," in a style which displayed much native and real genius. The Duke of ST. ALBANS rose and prefaced the health of the Chairman with a short and appropriate speech. After the applause excited by this LT nouncement had subsided, Lord NORMANI3T returned thanks, and concluded by proposirg* the health of " Mr. Harley, and the Drury-lane Theatrical Fund," :1111'.
