THE GREEN PARK.—His Royal Highness, the Ran ger of the Parks, has caused two notice-boards to be placed on either side of the Wellington Statue Arch on Constitution-hill ; one of which is to the effect, that the gatekeeper has strict orders not to permit any persons driving any carriage or other vehicle to pass through the gate into the Green Park, unless they be provided with a pass ticket for that purpose, or who are not privileged to do so ; and the other states that the keeper has di rections to prevent grooms or other persons from exer cising horses in the park, excepting those belonging to the Royal Family. 23 iOO 100 20 50 50 100 100 20 50 20 25 20 10 20 35 10 226 all all THE QUARTERLIES. The Edinburgh Review. No. CCl.—Elsewhere we have referred in our leading columns to the most remarkable paper in the current number of our great northern contemporary. The contribution we mean in reference to the exceedingly compli cated " Machinery of Parliamentary Legislation" —a paper evidently written by one perfectly mas ter of his subject, and calculated, we may add, to prepare the way fol• a variety of important and desirable innovations. The article is one in every way creditable to that sagacity and ability which have built up for the Edinburgh its high and stable reputation. Already, moreover, in the leading columns of this journal we have taken occasion to excerpt from the paper on " The Ottoman Empire," a declaration which commanded our attention to the new number of the Edinburgh almost from the earliest moment of its appearance. That earnest and decided declaration, which merits to be here repeated, to the effect that—" Every Minister of the Crown who advises, and every member of Parliament who votes for, a war with Russia, must, if he understands the true interests of England, be prepared to make the utmost exertions, to strike the hardest blow, and to inflict the deepest wound which the vast re sources of this country will permit." Observe— no partial measures, but—" the utmost exer tions, the hardest blow, and the deepest wound !" A reminder coming before the public signifi cantly from the organ of the Whigs, and ap positely just prior to the re-assembling of the Im perial Legislature. A recommendation that we do hope may not be lost either upon Ministers of the Crown or upon members of Parliament. A care fully-written and most commendatory criticism of " Lord John Russell's Memorials of Fox" leads off the Edinburgh for the quarter just commenced. The next contribution, having reference to " The Blind, their Works and Ways," will be found one of singular interest, and re plete with a variety of curious facts illus trative of the mode adopted in the process of their education. A store of valuable information may also be discovered in the paper relating to " Public Works in the Presidency of Madras." " Eccle siastical Economy" is the designation, moreover, of a Chapter on the Protestant Establishment, abounding in note-worthy statistics. Besides an article on " Government Education Measures for Rich and Poor, " there is still another contri bution in the Edinburgh not yet particularised—a genial criticism on the writings of " Thackeray." To this eloborate but confused criticism, the attention of many scores and scores of in telligent readers, we doubt not will be di rected. In it will be found no opinion whatever in regard to the wonderful Fit zboodle, or the still more wonderful Michael Angelo Titmarsh. Barry Lyndon and the Book of Snobs, Men's Wives and Brown's Letters, the Yellow Plush Papers and the Prize Novelists, are all passed over with merely a mention of them, strictly apologetic and incidental. The Paris Sketch Book, and the Irish Sketch Book, and the Hoggarty Diamond, appear to have been either en tirely forgotten by the reviewer or contemptuously overlooked. The notice of the Edinburgh only condescends to fix itself upon the " three great novels" mentioned at the head of the article— " Vanity Fair," and " Pendennis," and " Henry Esmond "—followed by a supplementary sentence or two of eulogium upon the " Lectures on the English Humorists." Allusion, of course, could not be made in any way to the new serial story of " The Newcomes," from the same master hand, that work being still only in course of publication. But what is here said by the Edinburgh in regard to the remarkable . works already specified, will be altogether satisfactory to the admirers (who aro now " legion ") of the genius of William Thackeray. The criticism' is from first to last eminently, and wisely, and genially appreciative. The reviewer has a wholesome horror of that " whimpering little goddess," whom Mr. Thackeray (says he) " deifies in every novel " —as for example Amelia in " Vanity Fair," and Laura in "Pendennis." Closing the notice of the former work, it is here said of Vanity Fair by the Edinburgh—" We have been reviewing one of the . most remarkable b oo k s o f thi s age—a work which is as sure of immortality as ninety-nine hundredths of modern novels are sure of annihilation." In allusion to one of the most admirable por tions pf that great novel, that in which the scone shifts to the neighbourhood of Waterloo, the critic very happily remarks : " Mr. Thackeray never was more happily inspired than when he removed his theatre to Belgium. Every reader will admit that the events in Brussels are those which are the most strongly imprinted on his memory. Every one recollects, as well as if he had witnessed them, the perplexities of Lady Bareacres, the undaunted self. possession of Becky, and the terrors of Joseph Sedley. But it is not merely to the exquisite truth with which these scenes are imagined that they owe their apparent reality. The solid foundation of fact by which all that is invention is supported, gives to it a stability which no pure fictions can possess. We know that thousands must have been startled at -their mid-day meal, like Sedley and Mrs. O'Do wd by the dull distant mutterings of Quatre Bras. We know that tens of thousands felt Amelia's terrors when the cannon of Waterloo began to roar. Every Scotchnian who visited the British Insti tution last year, and admired Drummond's charming picture of John Knox bringing home his second wife, felt what probability was given to its imaginary details by the curious gable ends and projecting windows and outside staircase of the still existing house at the head of the Netherbow, which the serious bridal procession is reaching." " Pendennis " is regarded by the Edinburgh, as by almost every one who has read the two works, as decidedly inferior to its predecessor. At th e close of the analysis of " Pendennis " we meet with this excellent suggestion : "We have said nothing about the tragical parts of the story—about Colonel Altamont and his frightful secret and mysterious threats ; or Warrington's discarded wife. They are tacked so slightly to the comic portions, that they might easily be detached altogether. And if Mr. Thackerary should think fit hereafter to lighten Pendennis, and so improve its chances of floating down to posterity, we recommend that these be the portions of its rigging that are first cut away." Speaking of " Esmond," the reviewer acknow ledges that "it is a wonderful tour de force" — adding a little later on : " Even Walter Scott, though, in order to please critics who are intolerant of anachronisms, he endeavours to copy the manners and feelings of a past age, does not try to speak in its language or in its style. His events may be medieval, but he relates them like any other novelist of the nineteenth century. Though the scene of Rob Roy is laid 140 years ago, and though Osbaldiston is his own biographer, he tells his story as if he had just finished his education in the new town of Edinburgh. The courage, the diligence, and the skill of Mr. Thacke ray have enabled him to avoid this inconsistency. Col. Esmond writes as one of the best of her wits might have written in the reign of Queen Anne." Nevertheless, says the writer, " we cannot avoid thinking that this merit has been purchased too dearly ; the reader feels always that he is listening to falsetto notes ; that he is looking at the imita tion of an imitation." Towards the conclusion of the whole criticism it is observed with reason, " Mr. Thackeray, in his' English Humorists,' resembles lit tle Mr. Thackeray as a satirist. He is as indulgent to his real as he is severe towards his imaginary charac ters." One thing in this review we are somewhat surprised at, namely, that from certain allusions at page 240, the writer of it does not appear to esti mate at its true value the loveable character of George Warrington. The British Quarterly Review. No. XXXVII. As a matter of course, there is a reference in this as in almost every other periodical, great or small, daily or weekly, monthly or periodically, to the interminable Eastern Question the British Quarterly, referring to it in an article headed " The War—its Seat and its Prospects." And almost equally, as a matter of course,, there , is_ an allusion here also, under the title of Trades , Unions Strikes," to the recent disturbances in Lan cashire. Having turned over these pages with a sense of exhaustion, the reader will experience a feeling of relief in examining papers such as those weighing in the balance of criticism the philological labours of Niebuh," or portray ing the aspect of " Modern Syria," or introdu c i ng us to Coleridge as a Theologian. Among the mis cellaneous contributions in the new numb er o f the British Q u arterly may be especially noticed as curious one on 4g The Life and W r iti ngs of John Pye Smith," a nother of the innum era bl e luminaries blessed with that universal patronymic. Another, yet more singular, paper is oddly entitled " Re cent Scientific Ballooning." Besides a double Epilogue, on " Affairs " an d on " Books, " the present number of our contemporary contains a charming chapter on " Dante's Bea trice," a chapter at once critical and biographi cal. What is almost amusing in this contribution, however, is the dogged determination with which the writer resolves that Beatrice must have been a real creature and no mere shadowy myth, or phantom allegory. He makes his mind up to believe implicitly in Beatrice as a woman and not as a mere imagining : and he flies into a fury of indignati on w h enever an y one p res u mes t o con jecture that she was nothing more substantial than a symbol of Celestial Wisdom, or what not, born of the divine Florentine's abounding and vivific imagination. ST. PETERSBURGH.—The advices from St. Petersburgh are to the 16th inst., at which date a steady rise was taking place in the prices of imported articles, and especially of sugar, denoted an increased anticipation of war. The rate of exchange was lower. lii pm Pm 1174 19?‘ CI xd 38i 8 38j 8 5/ 6 4/ 21 xd LITERATURE. The Turkish Alphabet. Designed by R. B. Brough, and drawn by H. G. Hihe. Bogue. A glorious political squib, every letter of which, we wager, will go off with a fresh explosion of laughter. A was an Aberdeen, wise in debates. B was a Bear, taught to dance on hot plates. Aberdeen being a highly respectable but timorous old gentlewoman—the bear-leader a British soldier —and the hot plates the provinces of Moldo-Wal• lachia. C was a Czar, who would whip round the world. D the Defiance, that at him was hurled. The big booted Czar " absolutely" bounding into the air with the swinging blow of the knout he is bring ing down upon that great hum-ming-top, the world —and the defiance being nothing more than what is vulgarly called a " sight" taken at the aggressor by the embodiments of France and England, while the Turk is coolly lighting his pipe with the crumpled-up ultimatum. E was an Emperor, struck with dismay. F was a Frenchman in Besika-bay. The Austrian boy-Emperor actually livid with ap prehension—his crown lifted bodily upfrards by the force with which " each individual hair does stand on end, like quills upon (an improvement on Shak spere) the frightful porcupine :' " the Frenchman, by the way, evidently at sea, and therefore exceed ingly unwell, apparently not farther off than Long Reach, though really in the neighbourhood of the Dardanelles. G was the Greeks, who for freedom would strike. H was a Hospodar, warranted like. The Greeks (elegantly be it said) struck—all of a heap ; and the Hospodar armed with a red um brella like that memorable folding-tent of the im mortal Riccabocca. I was an Insult that hurt the Porte's pride. J was a Jassy, by friends occupied. The Insult, of course, none other than the over bear-ing atitude assumed about this time last year by Prince IVlenschikoff; and the friendly occupa tion of Jassy being only second in brutality to the inhuman massacre at Sinope long afterwards. K was the Knife to which war was declared. L was the Lion, and how much Is cared. The knife warranted " shear steel :" the British lion complacently smoking his pipe in an easy chair lined with the union jack--a pot of porter in his paw, and such a comic leer of indifference in the corner of his eye. M was a Minister sniffing a row. N was a Newspaper, Turkey's friend now. The minister no other than Lord Palmerston, a close prisoner in the Home-office : and the news paper the Times crowning the Turk with the laurel of applause so soon as the Czar had been seriously damaged at Citale and Oltenitza. 0 was an Own Correspondent so trusty. P was a Port(e) old, and thin, and turned crusty. The correspondent (note-book in hand) threatened with decapitation : and the Porte (plentifully cob webbed) surrounded by the fungi of luxury and corruption. Q was a Question whose solving we all laugh at. R was a Rout of the Russians at Kalafat. The Question a maze of inextricable entanglement : the Rout a prophecy scarcely uttered before its fulfilmen t. S was a Supplement telling it all. T was a Tradesman who 'd sold for a fall. Such a Supplement—a fly-leaf from a printing house of Brobdignag : and such a Tradesman—a genuine Je d' esprit—a frequenter of Capel-court —a Bear not of Russia but of the Stock Exchange. U was an Urquhart foe foresight well vaunted. V was the Vessels still ready if wanted. Urquhart naturally in a state of rapturous delight : the British and French commanders of the Vessels hobnobbing comfortably with each other—quaffing copious draughts of champaign—not sparkling, of course, but " still" champaign. W was a Westmoreland—teach kings he used to. X the X-tremities Russia's reduced to. Westmoreland a petit maitre in more senses than one : the extremities of Russia, an empty purse, worn-out boots, and three balls—not cannon balls by the way, but the balls of the pawnbroker. Y was a Yell for the Friends of the Czar. And Z were the Zanies who're frightened at war. The Zanies, Cobden and Bright, as any one might guess, trembling and cadaverous, but not at all com plimentary—the yell an intensified " yah ! ! ! ! ! 1" accompanied by a shower of cats, rotten eggs, and brickb,,a-arti'ae very perfection of a caricature. Such is c!,zie Turkish alphabet. And often as we have already been tickled into laughter by the pen of Mr. Brough and the pencil of Mr. Hine, we must avow that they have never before yielded us such store of apposite and genial merriment. The Musical Directory for 1854. Rudall, Rose, and Carte. Although without the goad of a competitor, Messrs. Rudall, Rose, and Carte's Musical Direc tory for 1854 does not betray by any appreciable deficiency the want of the wholesome incentive of competition. Within its moderate but ample compass are collected together all particulars of any interest whatsoever connected, directly or indirectly, with the musical profession. In this manner we have grouped together and given in a tabular or alphabetical form consecutively, a sum mary of the " Musical Events of 1853"—a cata logue of the " Professors" with their addresses—a list of the various " Musical Societies" both pro vincial and metropolitan—and besides the foregoing a copious directory of music recently published, and of the sellers of music, and of the makers of musi cal instruments. UNION BANK OF AUSTRALIA. At the meeting of the Union Bank of Australia held yesterday, the dividend declared was at the rate of 20 per cent., and the report and accounts were unanimously adopted. The chairman (Mr. Buckle) stated that the business of the establishment continued to make satisfactory progress, and that the effects of the expansion of trade in the Australian colonies had been manifested by an increase in the deposits from 1,500,0001. to 3,700,000/. in the year ending the 30th of June last, while exchange operations had augmented the sum for bills drawn from 1,028,000/. during the six months end ing the 30th of June, to 2,111,0001. for a similar period ending the 31st of December last. Annexed is an ab stract of the report " The advices received from the branches since the date of those embraced in the last annual report afford strong evidence that the expansion of banking transac tions throughout the Australian colonies has not been over-estimated by the directors. The prosperity of this bank has fully kept pace with this enlargement of busi ness, the cessation of large profits in gold purchases having been in a very great degree compensated by an increase in the ordinary profits of the bank ; and it is satisfactory to state that the bank has not sustained any loss in the altered state of commercial affairs in the cola vies. Mr. W. Fletcher having wished to be released from his duties as inspector, the directors have accord ingly named as his successor Mr. A. M'Donald, the manager at Sydney. The directors proceed to sub mit the statement of accounts, which presents an amount of profit for the six months now reported of 164,6931. 14s. 3d. This profit admits of 164,0001. being appropriated for the purpose of dividend to apply as in terest on the paid-up capital, and the same will there fore furnish a dividend by way of interest at the rate of 20 per cent. (for the half-year) on the amount paid up in respect of each share in the capital of the company, payable in London, free of income-tax, on Tuesday, the 7th of February, and in the colonies, with the addition of 7d. in the pound, as soon as the inspector shall fix after the receipt of the advices.
