THE EDINBURGH REVIEW. CLXVI. The number for the present month is graced by elle of those splendid articles which have given an unfailing character to this celebrated Review. It is the simple biography of a great man—obscure in regard to his birth, persecuted during his whole life, the sport of for tune, the terror of priests and hypccrites and time- serv ing patriots ; alternately the idol and the bugbear of statesmen; hated at one time by those whose interests he served best and at another extolled to the skies, by blind bigots who could not understand him; but amiist all the vicissitudes of fate never swerving from his great pur pose—the reformation of his race, and the establish ment of the libert', independence, and honour of his native land. It would be difficult to find among all the illustrious men whom this island has produced a more sincere and successful patriot than Daniel De Foe, and he has teen for.unate at last, if pos thumous fame can serve any man, in having his life, history, and works delineated by one of the first orators ar.d most celebrated writers of the nineteenth century. There can be no mistake about the authorship of this splendid tale—we should rather say this faithful narra tive ; it bears all the characteristic features of the only man alio could write such a biography, and who has here added another laurel to those which he has justly acquired in the more refined paths of literature. Almost every work which De Foe wrote is faithfully and strik ingly laid before the reader; his appearance, his manner, his dress, his independence of mind, his never-fading patriotism, his struggles in adversity, whether in prison or on the pillory, or in a hiding-place ; his incessant • labours to benefit mankind ; his con ferences with William of Orange, and afterwards with Harley, in the succeeding reign ; his battles with the Dissenters, with the Catholics, and the high-flying Churchmen; the way in which be employed the tedious hours of his long imprisonment, the freaks of fortune which at one time raised him to the highest pitch of eminence, and almost unbcunded wealth, and at another reduced him to a condition in which most other men would have died of despair—are all described with the hand of a master, and with such truth, such a glowing unction, and such a congeniality of feeling, that every reader will only regret that the article did not extend to twice its length, though comprising not fewer than one hundred pages. But the affairs of De Foe are not the only ones that find a place in this narrative. We have an insight into the wise and manly policy of William 111., a lively description of the motley crew of states men and place-hunters with a horn he had to deal, and a vivid picture of the serenity of mind which that illus trious personage possessed—the man who would not reign, but as an independent Sovereign, who would not hold his crown by the apron-strings of his wife, and who among all, the disgraceful wrangles of Whigs and Tories, and Churchmen, and Dissenters, and infidels, and debauch eas, only coolly remarked to Marshal Schoenberg, "They are an inconsistent people." Then we have the history and character of Queen Anne, who was thirty-seven when she ascended the throne, and " her character was formed and known. It was a compound of weakness and bigotry, but in some sort these availed to counteract each other. Devotion to a High Church principle was needful to her fearlul conscience ; but reliance on a woman favourite wa: needful to her feeble mind." Hence the prodigious influence of the domineering and artful Duchess of Marlborough, of Abigail Masham, and the good Mrs. Freeman, and he nee also the disgraceful, .:ruel, and mad persecution of the best friend of the mo • narchy, and, perhaps, also, of the Church. During the reign of William, De Foe had, in his interviews with that Monarch, frequently urged the benefits that would accrue by the union of England and Scotland ; but the cautious Monarch replied that the apple was not yet ripe. In Queen Anne's reign, however, the scheme was again brought forward, mainly at the instance of De Foe, and he was sent down to Scotland with the Commissioners as secretary, and at the same time intrusted with con siderable influence derived from the Ministry in London. To his labours, his prudence, and surpassing abilities the consummation of this great and useful measure is chiefly to be attributed. This appointment directed his attention to various matters which he believed to be es sential to Scottish prosperity, and grounded in him a high respect and liking for the Scottish people. He wrote a poem in eulogy of them ; busied himself earnestly with suggestions for their commercial and national ad vancement ; and afterwards wrote a very interesting history of the Union. "We rejoice," adds Mr. Macau lay (for it is needless to conceal his name), " to have to couple that act so eminently in the best spirit of the Revolution, so large- minded and so tolerant, with his name. it changed turbulence to tranquillity ; rude po verty to a rich civilisation ; and the fierce atrocities of a dominant Church to the calm enjoyment of reli gious liberty." Yet this man, so noble in all his conduct, so useful to his country, and so happy in his family, and who, in his old age, and on the brink of the grave, loved, to use his own words, his youngest daughter " above ail his comforts," was tried at the Old Bailey, convicted, pilloried, imprisoned, and ruined in his fortune, which then was not small, because in his "Shortest way with Dissenters," he den ounced the Bill against Occasional Confcrmity. So stupid was the public, the work which was ironical was taken for seri ous, and after a little the writer was assailed by one universal clamour, " Sluggish, timid, cowardly Dissen ters were struck with fear ; rabid Churchmen shouted approval, a Cambridge fellow wrote to thank his book seder for having sent him so excellent a treatise, it being next to the Holy Bible and the Sacred Comments, the most valuable be had ever seen." But both parties were " taken in," and loud and furious were the ex ecrations of the Church and the Court against the author. De Foe found it necessary to seek a hiding-place in the storm ; a reward of fifty pounds was offered for his apprehension, and a proclamation ap peared in the London Gazette thus describing his person : —" A middle-sized spare man, about forty years old, of a brown complexion and dark brown coloured hair, but wears a wig ; a hooked nose, a sharp chin, grey eyes, and a large mole near his mouth, owner of the brick and pantiles works, near Tilbury Fort, in Essex." He was not, however, betrayed, for with his usual honesty and manly spirit when he heard that the printer and pub lisher were thrown into prison he surrendered himself. He was condemned, as we have said, and ordered to stand three times in the pillory. Here is the account of the scene : " On the 29th of July, 1703, there appeared, in twenty-four quarto pages, A Hymn to the Pillory , b y Daniel De Foe ;' and on that y, we are informed by the London Gazette, Daniel De Foe stood in the pillory before the Royal Ex change in Cornhill; on the day following, near the conduit in Cheapside ; and on the 31st, at Temple-bar. large crowd had assembled to pr ovide themselves sport ; but pillory they most enjoyed was not of the Government's erecting. Unexpectedly they saw the Law pilloried, and the Ministers of State ; the dullness which could not compre hend, and the malice which on that account would punish, a popular champion. They veered quickly round. Other mis siles than were wont to greet a pillory reached De Foe; and shouts of a different temper. His health was drunk with ac clamations as he stood there; and nothing harder than a flower was flung at him. "The people were expected to treat me very ill,' he said; but it was not so. On the contrary, they were with me ; wished those who had set me there were placed in my room; and expressed their affections by loud shouts and acclamations when I was taken down.' We are told that garlands covered the platform where he stood and that he saw the 'Hy mn' p assed from hand to hand, and heard what it calmly said less calmly repeated— ' Tell them the men that placed him here Are scandals to the times; Are at a loss to find his guilt, And can't commit his crimes.'" He still continued to be the sport of fortune. lie was exalted to places of trust and emolument in the State, ad mitted to Court and kissed the Queen's hand ; became again rich and then poor; was struck with apoplexy in the year of the rebellion of 1715, but survived the attack for sixteen years, and finally closed his varied life at his country residence in Newington. The following graphic and affecting details of his latter days conclude this able biographical sketch : " While his gigantic labours were in progress, De Foe seems to have lived almost whol l y at his favouriteNewing ton. His writings had been profitable. He got little for • Robb•son Crusoe,' but was paid largely for its successors. We have occasional glimpses of him still engaged in mercan tile speculation; purchasing and assigning leases; disposing of South Sea stock; and otherwise attending to worldly affairs. But we do not see him steadily till 1724. A gen tleman named Baker, afterwards known as a somewhat celebrated philosophical inquirer, had then occasion to go to Newington, where he fell in love with a pretty girl, the youngest of three daughters who lived in a large and hand some house in Church-street, which their fatht.r had newly built. The father was an old gentleman of sixty-four years, afflicted with gout and stone, but very cheerful, still very active, with mental faculties in sharp abundance, keeping a handsome coach, paying away much money in acts of cha rity, and greatly given to the cultivation of a large and pleasant garden. This was Daniel De Foe. We know no thing more with certainty till six years later; when, from one of the most affecting letters which the English language contains, we learn that the conduct of De Foe's second son was embittering the closing days a his long and checkered life. He had violated some large trust reposed in him by his father, and had reduced his mother and sisters to beg gary. De Foe writes from a place near Greenwich, where he seems to have been some time wandering about alone, in want, and with a broken heart. The letter is to his son-in law Baker; possessor of his best gift,' his dear daughter; and closes thus I would say, I hope with comfort, that it is yet well I am so near my journey's end, and am hasten ing to the place where the weary are at rest, and where the wicked cease to trouble ; be it that the passage is rough, and the day stormy. By what way soever He please to bring me to the end of it, I desire to finish life with this temper of soul in all cases—Te Deem:. laudamus. Kiss my dear Sold)) , once more for me, and, if I must see her no more, tel her this is from a father that loved her above all his comforts, to his last breath.' " The money was recovered, and the family again pros perous; but Daniel De Foe was gone. In his seventy-first year, on the 24th of April 1731, he had somehow found his way back to London—to die in that parish of St. Giles, Cripplegate, wherein he was born ; and, as long as the fa mous old city should live, to live in the memory and admira tion of her citizens." There are other articles in the number that require notice, but this will suffice for the present. 16, BILLINGSGATE. dtr a - ' Kinds of Fish were in moderate supply, and ready h A erd, at pr W evious rates.

The sport, on the whole, was good, as they bagged 118 partridges and 16 hares. The hares are not so numerous this season as last, as his Grace had left orders to have them killed down, as complaints had been made to him from his tenantry that they were suffering from the ravages made by them. His Grace's agent, John Fairlie, Esq., fulfilled his orders to the letter, and this year it is a pleasing fact that in no single instance has any complaint been made as to their being too numerous. —Cambridge Chronicle. We learn by the Liege Gazette that, about eight o'clock on Monday morning, the house of Baron Dothee, a major in the army under the Empire, and a member of the Legion of Honour, living in that city, took fire. The neighbours believing the Baron to be in the country, did not go immediately to assist, but sent for the firemen, who came with their engines, and soon extinguished the flames. But on entering the house afterwards, they found the Baron, who was upwards of 80, and his two ser vants, in his bedchamber, all burnt to death.

BANKRUPTS. Job Elliott, smith, Beer-lane, City, to surrender Oct. 18. at two, and Nov. 15, at twelve, at the Court of Bankruptcy. Sambrook-court, Basingball-street BRIEF STATEMENT OF FACTS. (Fame A CORRESPONDENT.) It, will be recollected that in April last the cases of Thomas La. kin and Ann Ward, were brought by petition before both Houses of Parliament. It appeared that having been unable to pay a poor's rate, and having no sufficient goods and chattels, they were impri soned in Leicester county gaol till the rate shoal(' be paid. It was paid by a charitable gentleman. They were tben sent to the House of Correction for one month to hard labour, for inability to pay the costs, and having, as before, nothing on which a distress could be levied. Thomas Lakin has now been subjected to another levy, which he is again unable to pay. A distress warrant is issued with the same result as before. He is summoned befot e the Bench of Magistrates, and committed to the county gaol, as before, for an indefinite pe riod, till the rate, amounting to ss. 4d., is paid, with the prospect of another month of hard lab cur for the costs. This is a poor mats of excellent character, as attested in writing by his employers and others. His wages for the last elevevi'itteks (taken from the pay master's weekly tickets) average 9s. Bd. per week. The rent of the cottage (the little furniture of which belongs to his landlord), is Is. 6d., leaving about Bs. to support himself, his wife, and four children, the eldest eleven years old and blind, and the youngest barely twelve months I By going to the Ashby-de-la-Zouch bench, as summoned a week or two ago, he incurred a loss of four shillings, and the fees then charged and ordered by the magistrates were five shillings for the magistrate's clerk, and one shilling and siape.mv , an that doubtless when the hand of from charity releases him his b rit a'nu will, as before, be charged some twenty or thirty shillings costs, and sent for a month among felons at the treadmill for inability to pay that amount. On the former occasion, in April last, he was released three days before the expiration of the month by the in. tervention of her Majesty, both Sir James Graham, in the House of Commons, and the Lord Chancellor, in the House of Lords, ad mitting fully the illegality and inhumanity of the course pursued by the magistrates. The committing magistrates on that occasion were R. G. Cresswell, Esq., and W. Wootton Abney, Esq. In this instance they are R. G. Cresswell, Esq., and the Rev. Sir Nigel Gresley. The commitment is dated from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Oct. 4, 1845. Thomas Lakin is an inhabitant of the village of Whitwick, six stiles from Ashby, and woiks in the Whitwick coal-pits.

Nothing then passed between them of an angry nature. On the fol!owing morning Welch got up first (about half. past five o'clock) , an d a f ter h e h a d dressed himself, he said to de- Why don't you get up, Booth, and not lie there and lose your time ?" Deceased replied, " You be -, I don't want you to be troubling the at all! You had no business here. The last time you slept wiih me my money fell out of my pocket, and you (Welsh) gathered It up and kept Is. 6d. or 2s. out of it." Welsh upon this became much exasperated, and angry words passed be tween them. Welsh then left the room for a minute, and on his return said to deceased, "Do you still persist that I had your money?" Deceased replied, " Yes ;'' upon which Welsh retorted, " pay it out of you," and instantly left the room. In less than a minute he returned with a tailor's sleeve.board in his hand, and, rushing at deceased, struck him several blows on the head with it whilst he was in a half sitting position in bed. Deceased cried out, " Oh, Welch, don't hit me any more." Welch appeared to strike as hard as he could. nituess imme diately jumped out of bed and endeavoured to get hold of Welch, but before he could accomplish it he had struck deceased two slighter blows on the back. A man named Luney then came into the room, and who wrenched the sleeve-board from him. Witness afterwards went to work, and Welch accompanied him a short distance on the road, when they parted, he saying he should go to New cross Railway station to seek employment. Witness had not seen him since. On their way, Welch said he was sorry for what he had done. Mr. Thomas Morris, surgeon, Peckham, deposed that he was sent for to deceased. He found him in bed quite insensible, breathing stertorously. From his appearance witness attributed his condition to compression of the brain. He Wed kim, and re. sorted to all necessary remedies Deceased never was restored to a state of consciousness, and died the same night. Had since made a post-mortem examination. On opening the head, he found a crack or fracture extending from about two inches above the temporal muscle to the base of the brain; also found a mass of blood of about three ounces in weight pressing on the right hernia phere of the brain, between the dura mater and the skull, which arose from a rupture of one of the arteries of the brain. The jury returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against John Welch. Welch being still at large, the Coroner issued his warrant for his apprehension.

THE BLACKLEAD FROM GREENLA ND.-- It has been frequently stated of late tha t the blacklead discovered in Greenland resembled in all essential particulars the blacklead fou din Borrowdale, near Keswick. We entertathed strong doubts as to the truth of this averment from the lirst, and we are at prei•ent in possession of information on the subject which enables us to give a deciOed contradiction to the rumour that the Davis's Straits lead possesses any of the pro perties which render the Borrowdale lead so valuable. A friend of ours was in Leith the other day when the Comet arrived from Davis's Straits with a cargo of the lead on board, samples of which he examined with great care, and 1 - :o far from its possessing the valuable properties of the Borrow dale lead, it does not even resemble it in appearance. In fact, it could not be distinguished from what is known in the trade as Spanish lead ; its ever coming into use, therefore, as a sub stitute for the valuable mineral found in liorrowdale, is en tirely out of the question.—Cumberland racquet.
