The regions of Mexico and South America are now too eminently objects of interest to the commercial speculators of this country not to carry many persons thither who have never before known the nature of those climates ; and, as sin cere friends to all such temporary emigrants from more genial climes, we cannot but strong ly recommend to their attention this little vo lume, which has just appeared. The contents fully justify the title-page, as directions are given for health, cloathing, and for providing personal comforts in every way; while, on the whole, the general impression we receive from the perusal of this valuable wide mecum, professedly founded on experience, rather cheers than excites alarm in the well advised adventurer to the tropical skies. Some incidental observations with regard to antidotes to poisons, whether imbibed by the bites of noxious animals, effluvia, or having beet► taken in wardly, are highly interesting. As doubtless the vast sources that are opened for mercantile adventures in the ex tensive countries which have shaken off the yoke of Spanish tyranny will tempt travellers from all parts of Europe as well as from Great Britain, we conceive it a duty to mankind to recommend the present work to general attention. The rising Republics of South America want no ex citements to animate their patriotism, but as they will derive essential advantage from the skill and intelligence of those who remove from the matured States of the Old World, whatever tends to the preservation of life in those who visitthem, as ►•ell as of themselves must promote their own improve ment in the useful arts of Europe, the enlarge ment of their commerce, the establishment of their independence, and their elevation in the scale of nations. CLAIM ON THE PERCY PA MaNsto re-Ho t:SE.--The unfortunate Mrs. Webster, to whose grandfather the Northumberland family has been in debted for upwards of 60,0001., and who has been, since the paper acknowledging the obligation was so unfairly gives up to bie Grace, totally neglected and abandoned to parish relief, almost daily haunts the Mansion-house in the vain expecta tion that her misfortunes will yet excite some compassion where gratitude is not to he found. It was stated in the detail of the circumstances which formed the basis of her application to the Lord 3layor, that it was understood his Lordship had written to the Duke of Northumberland upon the subject. —This, it appears, is not accurate. His Lordship considered that as the case was one of a family nature, and of which a Magistrate could not take cognizance, it would be improper for him to interfere in that manner. He, however, for the purpose of enabling the Duke to form an estimate of the merits of the Claim, directed that the City Seal, which has graven upon it the appropriate words " Dornine diri,4e nos," should be impressed upon a letter written by Mrs. Webeter to the Duke; and Mr. Mohler, in order to assist in the humane expedient to place before the eyes of his Grace the distresses and the claims of the unhappy pauper, superscribed the letter and wrote the word private' upon it. That letter, his to be supposed, met the fate of all the communications made to his Grace since the letter of the late Duke, in acknowledgment and praise of the magna nimity of Mr. Lomas, was no longer capable of being pro duced by that gentleman's only living descendant. Not one word has been written or spoken by any of this noble and affluent family about the matter. It was mentioned in our former statement with respect to Mrs. Webster, that the Duke of Northumberland said, the money which had been presented by Mr. Lomas to the family was all in the hands of the Earl of Beverley, his relation, who, he had no doubt, would not be unmindful of the obligation in his consi deration of Mrs. Webster's case. The Earl, it was also stated, was in France ; but he certainly must bare seen the account in the newspapers, and might have forwarded tong bethre this to England some testimony that he had not forgotten the benefac tion which had so greatly added to his estate.. It ix now sup. posed in the city, that if the Duke of Northumberland should persevere in neglecting to notice the complaint of this poor woman, a subscription will be raised to keep her from the parish. She has more than once declared that she will submit, without murmuring, to the castigation which awaits an im postor, if one sentence she has uttered be found to he incorrect or exaggerated, and she refers to the names of individuals whom she spoke of as authorities, and; who never come forward to deny one word of her story, in evidence of the accuracy of the details. The LORD 3LeYon. shows increased reluctance to be applied to any further on the subject, as it has become matter of very general conversation throughout the country, and he has ex pressed his most decided reluctance to give any advice in a case of so delicate a nature. His Lordship had in the first instance advised Mrs. Webster to write a respectful letter to the Duke. This was done, and might as well not have been done ; hut his Lordship, in an honourable anxiety to prevent a hasty and erro neous impression from being formed of his Grace's conduct, perseveres in stating that there must be some mistake in the business, and that the Duke could not be consciousof any claim such as had been described, or he would liquidate it without delay or hesitation. Mrs. Webster states, that on the Sunday before last she saw Dr. 3l`Leod at the communion table in St. Anne's Church, and was kindly received by him—a proof that that worthy per son knew she was no impostor. She declares that the publi cation of that gentleman's name, and of the part he had taken in the transactions, was quite a surprise upon }ter; that she re gretted the circumstance, as it probably gave pain to the Doc tor; but ac publicity had been given, she thought it wasAhe duty of the Rev. Gentleman to come forward if she uttered any thing a hick was not true in every respect, and as publicly re fute the calumny. Mr. Lomas was (she says) born in the county of Derby in the year 1714, on the day King George I. made his public entry into London. At a very early period of his life, he mani fested high intellectual power. At Northampton, where he re ceived a great part of his education, he first became acquainted with Hervey, the author of The Meditation:, and their friend ship lasted as long as their lives. 31r. Lomas was patronized by Mr. William Fitt, of Sherborne, in Doreetehire, a near re lation of the Earl of Chatham. He was obliged to this gentle man for the liberal education he received, his father haying been ruined by the failure of the South Sea Bank Company, az the period of desperate and hopeless speculation. In the year 1737 he was introduced by Mr. Pitt to the Earl of Hertford, and appointed by that Nobleman to the sole management of his estate. One of the principal delights of the Earl, who had found it necessary to retire to Percy-hxlge, in Buckingham shire, on account of violent attacks of the gout, consisted in the correspondence of 31r. Lomas and Mr. Hervey. The Earl Of Hertford, in the Duchy of Somerset, in the year 1747 succeeded his father, who was styled the proud Duke of Somer set, and with whom he had been at variance for some time. He had but one son, Lord Beauchamp, who died abroad in his mi nority. In 1749, the new Duke, who had never ceased to ex press the utmost respect for, and admiration of, Mr. Lomas, died; and in 1751, the Dowager Duchess, who had, soon after her husband's decease, ,hewn unequivocal proofs of attachment to Mr. Lomas, cons e nt e d to be that gentleman's wife. They arrived in town on the 18th of July, from Iver, in Bucking. harnshire. The carriage was disuiissed in Tavietock-street, Covent-garden, and the Duchess was conveyed in a sedan-chair to the Fleet-prison, where marriages were solemnized pretty much as they are solemnized at Gretna-green. Jr.A Lomas walked on before. They lived as happily as it was possible to live ; and soon after her death he gave that extraordinary evi dence of hie affection for her memory which he was determined never should be reproached on his account, by placing in the hands of the Northumberland family the Duchess'. bond for GO,OOOl. Amongst Mr. Lomaio( intimate friends were many - of the nobility ; amongst whom were the Earl of Tanlcerville, Lord Ossuiston, and Lord Kilmorey. . , DREADFUL ACCIDENT.- . --A few days since,, at Yarmouth, a waterman incautiously boarded a vessel in which was a bullock loose, w hi c h attac k ed an d tosse d hi m three tittles in the air, and so dre a df u ll y gored him, that he expir e d s h ort l y after..;-"(Southampton Herald.> - F . ] itE.—About ha If.past twplre o'clock last night a tire broke out in the premises of Mr. Field, carpenter and builder, in Charles-square, kloxton, which, from the qua lity of the materials, burnt with great 616 , , and communicated to the adjoining buildings of Mr. Donne, the carver, gilder, arid looking glass manufacturer, and in a short titne the property gr. these indiliduars was in so Complete a name as defied the po w i r of the fire•engines, with a scanty supply of water, to have any part thereof.

RECOLLECTIONS OF GARRICK. The last Number of Blackwood's Magazine contains, amongst other interesting articles, one under the above title, which will he read with much avidity. W e extract the following passage, as particularly interesting : " The playbill in which I first saw his name announced as an actor, was for the tragedy of Zara, the part of Lusignan by Mr. Garrick. Though probably there were not many, who, like myself, had never seen Mr. Garrick, yet the general im patience for the third act seemed equal to my own ; there was a good deal of noise in the house, and a few appeared to be very attentive. At length a general buzz proclaimed his approach, and all was hushed when he entered--a pin might hase been heard to fall. The power with which he rivetted the auditors, of whom, while the scene lasted, every eye was fixed on him alone, was, you may be sure, particularly felt by me,a native of another conntry,and one who, until a few days before, had never flattered himself with a hope of seeing Mr. Garrick. In truth, many minutes had net elapsed after he began to speak, before I became aware, not only that I had seen nothing like him, but that I had for►med an erroneous judgment of what acting ought to be ; that, in short,the general usage of the theatre had framed a plan for itself, and that Nature, as exhibited by this her favou rite disciple, had laid down another. Every word, look, gesture and movement, in none of which was the smallest show of the artificial, were so exactly suited to the character, that the idea of a part acted was out of the question—it was not Garrick acting Lusignan, it was Lusignan himself—by a kind of Magic like that of Belnoborbo, the old king was conjured from his grave, and exhibited to the spectators in proprid person& as .64 liberated from the long confitlement of his dungeon .first unable to distinguish objects in the light; after such a length of gloomy incarceration, and afterwards gradually recovering the power of vision. Garrick - was completely excluded from my mind, and 'my feelings were wholly engrossed by the affecting situation and pathetic language of the old and venerable object before me. Another striking peculiarity, applicable also to every part he played, and which belonged but very partially to any other actor I ever saw, was that equisite art of elocution which compelled•yoU to believe that what he spoke was not a conned lesson, but suggested by the exigency of - the moment, and the immediate dictate of his own 'mind. You could not prevail upon 'yourself to think that it was an actor repeating words he had got by heart, and endeavouring to suit the action to the speech which is the usual idea of dratnatic deception, and under which, while you applaud the performance, the idea end name of the actor are always present to your mind,—no, in the inimitable Roscius you forgot the representation, and thought Only of the thing represented. It was not Garrick, but Isusignan, Richard,and Lear, that were before your eyes, nor was it until the exhibition was at an end that you had leisure to reflect. upon the magic Minion by which he was enabled to represent 1 them so faithfully to your View. In comedy he shone with at leas equal lustre, and it is one of the most inconceivable things i n the world, how one man should have been able to exhibit such an amazing contrast and variety of power; as fell within th e range of: his performances, in most of which he - had no thing like a rival, and in none of which wee he surpassed. The sa me set of features which, in the animating or pathetic- scenes of a tragic part, could thrill the very soul, exalt it into ad miration; or sink it in irresistible distress, were with equal art employed in the most delightful display of _comic gaiety, in laughable The strictest adhetenee to 0. priety was always obierved,'the droll never descending into buffr.emerv, nor the lively into extravagance.' In no single it stance, ' l believe, was he ever known to transgress the rules so admirably delivered by his Hamlet, or to butstep the modesty of nature; a temptation, which, ever 'since his' time, and tinder the force of his example,- few have been able'wholly to tesist. Wonderful, indeed, it is to think that the action, festotees, and • demestneir which con'vuls'ed the spectator with- laughter in the Lying Valet, in Scrub, or in Abel 'Dreigger, should be capablegreat a Metambrphosia as Wax exhibited in the h'cart- o r terdf 'io ingdistress Of Lear, the tyrannic vivacity of Richard,. or the terrifying remorse- -of Macbeth. Wienderftil- is it to think that :something of the-t;igic cast of countenance should not oceasienally appear-in the low comedian, or something of the droll be exhibited in the hero. But alike true to nature . in ull the -enthantment that riretted the • temporary attention 'of . the -spectator he never suffered it to wander. into a thought of anything beyond the-object presented to his view. Mr. (farrick's person was below the middle size, but exquisitely well.forined, and manly.

I would not have this twirl ' try involved in war again for any nation, or (4r' . any cause if possible to avoid it, but Ido thusk that either Great Britain or the Holy Alliance, or both united, should use their endeavours to bring about an arrangement between them and Turks to prevent further bloodshed. It appears to me to be shameful that in a Christian land. which Europe is, and in the knowledge aild neighbourhood of mighty Christian Princes, 3 o -4 millions of Greeks should he oppressed and enslaved by 30 or 40 millions of Turks. L former times such a circumstance would rouse al!. Europe to their rescue. Those Quixotic notipp:3 are fortunately relinquished, but as much may his done by negociation as hy force, if the Christian Princes would use their endeavour. The Greeki might surely be permitted to have the Morea quiet possession, and some of the Islands in the Archipelago, without their interfering with the Turks or the Turks with them. I am, Sir, &c. J. G. P. S. Look at the case of the Slave Trade. \;a interfered, by negociation with the policy of other.; nations to get that abolished, and' -why not inter..: fere in the same way to relieve Christian Captive's , who will now, if they are conquered, lia“) no. mercy shown to them. \V compelled the Deg of Algiers in a hostile manner to release his Chris tian Slaves, although very fey/ were our OWii Countrymen, why then not interfere in a frintily manner now. I hope, as a 111inister is going mit; express to Constantinople, and another to St. Petersburgh, that some such humane and cha ritable assistance is abort to he afforded them, and that their appeal to us has not•been without:• effect. THE WEATHER. EXTRACT from a 31t . rEoRoLocacar, JOURFAL for sEper. lan, kept at the OLsEavATonr of the ROYAL Arta, DEWY, GOSPORT, MIMS:— " The first nine and the last five'days Of this month it'ldie ! dry, the other part was generally wet; yet die weather has beets remarkably warm for the season, frequently sultry in the even ings and throughout several .nights, insomuch that the mean' temperature of the air is only one -and 1-111 t h d egree l e t s than that of last month.. The mean teniperature Gratre external air this month, is 3 degrees higher than tlienfean of Senteni bar for the last nine . years. The temperature-of Spring wafer arrived at its anmeinsunt at the time of the Autumnal Erpti nox, and in consequence of the dryness of the summer, and the unusually high temperature of the ground, itei marine/pi for the present year is oue.third of .a degree bigker, than the mean of the maxima for the lest five ,years. The steadin t ai of the mercury in the barometer . at this period, arising from the gentleness of. the atmospherical tides,* they are termed; •ix a proof- of the calmness of -the weather. Should it he ask ed, what this unprecedented mean temperature of the air is attributable to, • we would answer with defetence, that it may have been influenced partly by the *great-heat of the ground, as ascertained by the temperature of spring. water; and partly by the conjunction of the planets as hereafter monttoned, and the recent, appearance of the.tomete that are said to be pervading the solar system. • For we have partici , - ' lirly observed, that the temperature of the air is comparatiVely higher when a Comet is present, than When it has receded from the' eight:; and by admitting the theory . of 'attraction of • the planetary bodies, and the diffusion of light and caloric to Them, as well as to our .earth, it is not irrelevant to suppose, that the conjunction of an inferior with superior planets, may have , a tendency to increase, in so m e measure , the beat of our atnios phere. Such a suggestion is certainly deserving the attention of. the philosophic-mind, though we admit it to be a subject hitherto uninvestigated. -• "Theatniospheoric and meteoric Thenoinena that have conic within our observation this month, ac three parhrlia, 'one pera :sky's; -two solar, arid two lunar halos, one „rainbow,. and one limas iris'on the 25th, the latter at n'ne r. m. ; twenty-fonr met. ors, -lightning in the nights of the 11th, 14th, ar421501, end thunder in the afternoot of the 14th ; th ree strong galtkof wind; namely, one frcm S.E, and two from S.W.
