RUSSIA AND: TURKEY; —... • A letter was received yesterday from Odessa, dated the 14th Sept., which says " Bucharest has been burnt by the Turks." ThiS intelligence, however, though proceeding from a most respec table quarter' must be received . with some doubt' as no particulars a're related, nor any exPlana tion giVeit why the Turk s ih ou ld b urn a c i ty o f which they-were supposed to have quiet posses sion. Neither has any suspicion existed that the . Greeks in that quarter maintained any force on foot, much less that•they were strong enough to surprise Bucharest; not to mention that the event,. had it occurred, would,-in all probability,' have first 'reached this country by way ofl Vienna; BatOn Strogoi)off had quitted Odessa, in consequence of an order from his Court; and the feeling in the mercantil e c i rc le s was , th at the Am-: hassador was disgraced, and that war between TurkeY and Russia not only improbable, but - next to impossible." We quote nearly the: expressioni of some - well-informed merchants. The intelligence that the-freedom of the port of . Odessa has, by a recent Imperial ukase, been restored, is confirmed. The mode•in which the Suspension or abolition of that priiilege was on-, ginally declared by the Russian Government hag :rot, we beliqe, been heretofore-fully explained.. By the ekas6 which first established the freedom of the port of Odessa, the privilege was - limited I° a period of 30 years. It was considered to be 'virtually- abolished by 'a recent order,- that -the Merchants should pay up, in one month, all duties 9 11 goods bonded there, which payment they were before allowed to delay till the - regitlar deMands o f commerce ' rendered it expedient to . release the 'goods., In this Consisted the toe, dorn of the port ;. and the terms of the last 1 41 " .. a.e . are, .sitnply that-the trade'of 'Odessa shall be' restored to its ancient foOting:—A f rom Zante of the 28th of August, vithich, was received yesterday,CoMinunicates the most recent information of the state 'Of affairs in . the Morea, bunt is extremely itriperfeci.

The company, amongst whom may be named, the Lady Trim/estone and her son, the Honourable Mr. Barnwell, the Honourable Mrs. Hewitt, Sir Edward and Lady Poore, Lady and Miss Fitzgerald, Lady and Miss Sullivan, Mrs. Eyre, Mr. and Mrs. Warmer, Major, Cap tains, and Miss Montagu, Mr. and Mrs. Lock, Mrs. Bouverie, Mr. and Mrs. Anstey Calvert, the Misses Penruddock, Mr. and Miss Codrington, Mr. Villiers, Captain Courtenay, Mr. Symonds, and others, to the number of 70 and upwards, began , to assemble before three o'clock in the afternoon, and soon after wards-sat down to a sumptuous and elegant cold dinner, after which they repaired to the Fair on Wilcot Green. A lottery of the articles unsolo at the fair succeeded by a display of tasteful fire-works, soon followed the return of the company from the Green to coffee; and the merry dance led off by Miss Montagu (daughter of Admiral. Sir Geo. Montagu, G.C.8., and niece to Miss Wroughton), and the Hon. Mr. Barnwell deceived the hours until 'midnight,• when the- tables were again sump tuously and plentifully _covered, but with the addition of soups and hot game, and . a profusion, as at a dinner, of the choicest confectionary, and of ices of various kinds.-- Aftet some songs, the company returned to the dance, which was continued with great spirit until between four and five in the morning, when the company began to de part, no less delighted at having witnessed so successful a re vival of Old English Hospitality, and the elegance of their mina amusements then impressed with the liveliest sense of the rct,l kindness of, the object which its excellent owner had principally in view. A large party of the company, who came from a distance, remained .at Wileot House.—(Bath Journal.)

General Sir GEORGE WALKER, we are sorry to state, has met with a serious accident. He lately purchased a very- spirited horse as a charger, which at three o'clock On Wednesday afternoon, agreeable to 'his °Met's, was brought to his house iu Harley-street, when Sir George, in order to 'have a trial, mounted him, but he was no sooner in the saddle than the animal set off at full speed yip Harley-Street. Sir George's endeavours to pull him in were- useless ; at the extremity of Upper flarley-street, he came with such violence against the* iron palisade that forms the barrier, that he was thrown to a considerable distance, by which his shonlcier bone was fractured. lie was Conveyed home in a chair, and surgical assistance immediately procured. The horse was also con siderably injured. with'exreme regret we have to mention the - Aleath of_Colonel SANKEY, who expired yes terday . (Slinday 7th inst.) at two o'clock, of a stroke of apoplexy. .This melancholy event took place at Kens, where he was -on his way to his state in Cavan. The Colonel was one of the senior Aldermen of the Corporation, and since Ap - ri.i . 1793, he has had tho command of the Mi litia et the city of Dublin:* As a soldier, he con _ ducteti hirriielf in a manner that gained the ap .probation of his country, and as a member of the Corporation, he filled the civic chair in 1792 with distinguished hospitality and credit. He was a sincere and warm hearted man, and his death is deeply and universally lamented.— (Faulltnees Dublin Journal.)_ DREADFUL A CCIDENT in, St. James's-street.--- This morning,- as workmen were employed in pulling down some old houses at the corner of Little Ryder-street, St. James's, the beams gave way, when, shocking to relate, about sixteen or seventeen persons were buried in the ruins. We have not been able to ascertain how many lives are lost, as the labourers were employed in dig ging them out when our Reporter came away. Wednesday night, as a corl-waggon . was go ing up Arabella-row, Pimlico, a tine boy, the son of Mr. Claxton, of Chelsea, who was walk ing with his father, .whipped his top offt he foot way into the street, and in attempting to get it from underneath the waggon unperceived by any one, the wheel passed over his hand, and literally ground off the fingers. he poor boy was taken to the hospital iu the most excruci ating pain. - . - POETRY: CARMINA WICCAMICA—(No. XX.) Whilst hutsibler beings, to one lot confin'd, Survey that path which Nature first design'd, Upborn on rapid pinions meet the gale, Skim the broad wave, or range their native vale, Heedless of change, each call of sense obey, And seek no bliss beyond the present day ; Content, if perfect each enjoyment here Shall leave them -nought beyond to hope or fear, Man, man alone, superior to his fate, In purer regions seeks a happier state, Spurns the low earth, to heav'n directs his eye, And pants for nobler than terrestrial joy ; Alike o'er all this pow'rful hope presides, Im death it strengthens as in life it guides, From youth to age impels with equal force, The rule of all our actions, and the source. Though various passions, variously inclin'd, Impel or fetter, rouse or clog the mind ; Ambition, Virtue, here the sway divide, There, modest Reason strives with stronger pride : Whate'er their Nature, impulse, pow'r, or sphere, All still excite us, and concentrate here. Unsated turn from this unequal scene, This being humbly blest and proudly mean, . This state of error, weakness, pride, and pow'r, The bubble, sport, and victim of an hour, Bids us for happier worlds relinquish-this, And leave the present for the future bliss. For this, when haughty Gallia late unfurl'd The flag of desolation o'er the world, Driven from His regal state, neglected, fled, By those His power sustain'd, or bounty fed, Torn, from whete'er on earth he held most .dear, All that could comfort or delight him, here, Great Louis stood, in conscious virtue brave, Nor wish'd for.life, but that beyond the grave ; In His fair bosom check'd each rising moan, And in His country's woes forot his own. When the fierce Warrior Chief, untaught to spare, O'er ravag'd nation's spreads the waste of war, And foe to all those fine wrought links that bind Concordant soul with soul, and kind with kind, 'Mid.peaceftil scenes, where homely joys retire, . Deals the destructive steel or raging fire ; • That rank'd with heroes in th' historic page, . His deeds may live, the curse of every age, And flatt'ring marbles proudly rise on higbi, To snatch the Wretch from dark obscurity. This hope inspires, for love of life and fame, Their objects difrrent, are in cause the same. Heav'n, endless Being, to our view displayi, • Man blindly errs, and grasps at endless praise; Thus, tho' tis Heav'n itself directs our way, Tho' clear as light its dictates, man will stray ; What God design'd to bless convert to woe, And taint the streams of knowledge as they flow; Hence first this frantic rage for fame began, And man perversely thought to live through man ; In endless fame his wish'd-for life survey'd, And, whilst he lost the substance, grasp'd the shade. The patriotic soul which, firmly great, Stands the strong bulwark of a sinking State, And nobly zealous in His country's cause, On freedom's stable basis builds the Laws ; The friendless wretch, who, bent with grief and years, Creeps on neglected through a vale of tears, Surveys with rapture, in an higher sphere, The bright reward of all their labours here ; Well pleas'd, the transient-joys of earth forego, Nor heave one sigh for all they'll leave below. Th' impious wretch,. from whose unhallow'd eyes, Friend of the good, repose for ever flies, In midnight's awful calm, when gaunt dismay, Fetters each nerve, and hovers o'er its prey, When Sengeful Furies howl in every blast, Thrill through his heart, and echo back the past, From hearnly vengeance see 'tis vain to fly, And shudd'ring, feels he will not, cannot aie. Equal thro' life, the all-pervading Pow'r Consoles us still in Death's approaching hour, 'When life's last struggle rends the parting clay, Anti hop: and doubt t sumo hernate sway, When Nature fainting from her load of woes, In dread suspense awaits thia final close, And sickness brooding o'er the wretch's bed 'With pain enervates, or appals with dread ; As the tall cliff which winds and storms engage, And surges lash, with unavailing rage, Faith unappal'd sustains th' unequal strife, And thro' the gates of Death conducts to Life ; In his 'rapt senses higher prospects rise, And loyering Angels hail him to the skies. Yet not to more enlighten'd climes confin'd, Pervades this sense alone, the cultur'd mind, Nature to all this law alike reveals, • - The rude perceives it, and th' unletter'd feels, For Sage or Savage must alike obey When instinct points, or reason guides the way ; Hence heav'nly Plato first his precepts caught, And but confirm'd what Nature first had taught. Traverse each land where Reason's feeble ray, Scarce faintly glimmers thro' its house of clay ; Where Afric's sons a barbarous life pursue, Rude as the barren sands on which they grew, Untaught all laws, all precepts to revere, Yet all-pervading Nature stops not here. -Lo ! the poor Negro, whom tyrannic pow'r Tears from his leaf-built hut, and plaintain bow'r. Condemn'd thro' life to try the galling chain In some far Isle beyond the Western Main, Whose eyes, long strangers to the joys of sleep, Close but to dream of toil, then wake to weep. Yet still he hopes to view in death once more Those native plains lie lov'd in life before e - And wrapp'd in peaceful, undisturb'd repose, Drinks sweet oblivion of Ins former woes. Cheer'd by this hope, content he waits the grave, . And thanks his God for all the good he gave. Or go, where stretch'd beneath serener skies, Beyond th' Atlantic, fiercer nations rise, Mark there the Chief, whom barb'rous foes around, In savage triumph, gore with many a wound, - Scorch each firm sinew, and torment in vain With all the horrors of protracted pain, Unmov'd behold him spurn the flame, the steel, Deride their vengeance, and disdain to feel, Tello'er his mighty dee& of valour done, The num'rous spoils in early conquest won, The plumy trophies of sosne fallen prey, And bloody scalps - in battle torn away, Till freed at last, the soul exulting flies, . To gain sublimer conquests in the skies;__ What bids the calm Gentoo undaunted smile, Wrapt in the terrors of a blazing pile, When with mistaking zeal the Brachman dies Before his God a willing sacrifice ; - What spurs him on but that which all have known, That innate wish for worlds beyond his own ? n Hence taught, he paints in fancy's richest dress • Ideal scenes of future happiness, How blissful souls beneath some peaceful grove, Pursue the pleasing cares of harmless love. There no fell hate, or pining griefs intrude, . No sons of mad ambition thirst for blood : There flowing meads eternal spring behold, And forests wave in vegetable gold : There glory dwells, to conscious *orth allied, And faithful Justice blooms by Virtue's side. When wrapt in sleep, devoid of sense we lie, And rest'.s soft bandage veils each slutnb'ring eye ; Unconscious of repose, through earth and skies, The weary soul in soft idea flies, • • So when thii flame, in death's eternal close, Shall seek that kindred dust from whence it rose. No more encumber'd with its load of clay, The soul to bappier worlds'shall bend it s wa y, In loftier realms sublimer joys explore, .4:nd from those blissful visions wake no more. If this uncertain station here below, Is all by heav'n design'd for man to know, Why left imperfect in a middle state, Chain'd to the earth, yet soaring to be great ? Why form'd superior to his station here, Boundless his mind, yet limited its sphere ? Too wise to sit while worlds around him shine ? A calm spectator of the vast design ? Too dark whilst clouded by the veil of sense, To scan the wonders of Omnipotence,— Chain'etto the earth, could Newton's soul survey,. Unnumbeed worlds bcvond,the milky way. Trace all thiags upwards to one general cause, Range aim' an nature, and unfold her laws,. Fathom those skies where, railed With skill divine, Orbs over orbs, systems o'er systems shine. And all creation's vast design explore, • Far as the eye can reach, or fancy soar, And must that soul, when that terrestrial chain Shall cease to bind, and sense - no more can strain, Slumber in dust below, or still pursue Those hiPpier worlds on earth he lov'd to view ? Suniey freSh skieS, by fancy yet untrod, And, purified from earth, behold his God ? Say can that primal vivifying ray, The source of lire itself by time decay, That spark through which we move, we feel, we see, Itself obscued.in lustre cease to be ? When base men prosper, and the just obey, When vice unpunish'd here assumes the sway, When Rome's proud tyrant sees the world his own, And Cato bleeds, unpitied and alone : • When unreveng'd the pious victim dies, Is Heav'n all righteous, or can God be wise ? Cease the fond doubt, and know—th' eternal Will That first created man, protects him still : In future worlds profusely just as last; ' Shall by the future rectify the past, Withdraw the veil of sense from mortal sight, And prove to erring man that " all is right." But lo! the mists of doubt perplex no more, And Ileav'n confirms what Nature taught before is.. He comes ! he domes ! reveal'd to mortal eyes, Lo ! God himself descending from the skies ; From vanquish'd Death triumphant bears his prey, Points out to' other worlds, and leads the way. Not such that heav'n that Mincio's swains among In day's of yoie poetic fiction sung; Where lull'd to rest in Amaranthine bow'rs, The shades of Heroes waste the peaceful hours, , Not such that hetivin by Mecca's Seer foretold, Where streams nectareous roll o'er sandS of gold, And Eden's groves their various sweets dispense, ' To rouse each appetite and cloy the sense. . .

THE TntATar..—The admirable manner in which the play . of Rob Roy Macgregor has been brought forward at the Hay market New Theatre, induced us to revisit that Theatre last night at its repetition. We have no reason to recant the commendation-which we yesterday -betowed, but on the contrary found our opinion fully confirmed. TERRY again gave a manly and effective support to the proscribed hero of the piece, and TAvtEurtt was equally humorous in Baillie Jam*. We ought before to have noticed LEON I LEE in this piece. He is one of the most pleasing singers on The London boards. His voice is very sweet, and he decorates his songs with taste and without . excess. lle is also a modest and natural actor. His Frank Osbakliston is a very respectable per formance. We Caught also to hate noticed Mrs. IL JOiiNSTON in Helen, ' Macgregor's' heroic wife; and she appeared more formidable from her dress and manner than :could be expected • from. her. delicate form. After Match-makiog, a very di . - verting and well-represented piece, ct Mogq . Thle, concluded the entertainments. This last piece is the production of the late Mrs. INeHBALit, and is a proof of her judgment in availing herself of the popularity of Balloons at the time when it was written, and of the skill and humour with which she could mould her materials into a dramatic form. The piece displays great ingenuity, and affords an ad ditional reason for public regret on the loss-of so admirable an ornament- to British Literature in genius and moral conduct. Aliso Wii.com, accompanied by her master, Mr. T. WELcn, has made a very successful tour through Scotland, where she performed at Edin burgh, Glasgow, and all the principal Theatres. On each night of her appearance, they were crowded to an unprecedented extent, and her ex ertions Were rewarded by the most enthusiastic applause. On Saturday last she took her benefit at the Liverpool Theatre, on which occasion the house- was filled to en overflow. Miss W. while on the stage, was suddenly taken ill, owing, it is supposed, to a severe cold caught on the High lands. They will shortly proceed to Birming ham, Derby, Nottingham, Manchester, Chelten hanr, and Bath ; after which, we understand, they. purpose visiting Italy.
