DI 44120 N D ROCK, Al A R7l A'l QV E. The ((mowing Account is extra6ed henna Letter, received in the 5 nt the prz - ,sera year. o w 11, ;a a ers , we i mag i ne , will be atioviett by the vivacity 01 Style, and the lively .Vi .lure it contains nt a Colony of British Se melt, settle.t • on so singular a spot. Diamomdi Rod, Feb, 17 ~18040 At present, my dear fliend, rake all your roman. tic ides ,; about Fiigheate, Elatops'lead, and the lower Legions of Norwood Forest, Or even your own Chid font, and burn them, to make room for a set of new ones, as wild as those of Crusoe, and more true. There is in this hemisphere an island called Mar. tinique, belonging t'o the French, as you well know; and there is near it, in the middle of the sea, a tinge rock, called the Dtamond,,from its shape, I suppose, which very likely you do not know. - This rock has stood, since the creation, no doubt, without man, bold as he is, ever daring to venture near its destruc. live form. surge has beaten against its spiky l'ilinters for these thousand years, in vain anger s and the hollow cave still te-mutonois to the howling winds. This mighty rock has been gazed at by all nations, but trotiden by none ; sea crabs alone have ventured up into its holes, and birds, of prey have: altane ascended to its rugged surrunits. Behold the genius of the deep, the genius nt British enterPrizel it is not i month Since all this was, and now the voice of song and labour resounds through every part of it ; wigwams and thatchings, cots and ham. mock s , appear in every hole ; the pot and kettle's smoke ascends, and the light glimmers in the cavi ties where sea birds and bats fermerly built their vests. Where was the boasted ingenuity of Freed . , engineering ? It was too tremendous for their skill. Now they stand on the shore with their spy.glasses, and' wonder, ,aS the wiseacres did when Columbus gave the egg the mighty thump. Yet think not, my dear friend, that I have conjured up the genius of Fancy. More than I can say, and, more than y"u can believe', have hero accomplished by the fertile emerprize of Commodore Hood, and the indefati. gable exertions of the Ccatata' alone. Believe me, I shall never take off my hat for any thii% less than a British taeam:th. • : Were you to see how, ~along a dire, and, I had almoat said, a perpendicular, acclivity, the sail Ora are hanging in clusters, haiiiing up a lour-and twenty.phisoder by hawsers, you would' Wonder they appeal' like mice, hauling a little sausage ; scarcely can 'ive hear the . Goveronr on the top, di. redirtg them with -his trumpet, the 'Centaur lying close under it, like a cocoa.shell, to which the hawsers are fixed. Front that Ship, which you must ken is a seventy.four, it,sued forth carpenters, smiths, turners e miners, machines,: engines, and di. rectors, andollso your friend, their huitilde historian, who thus attempts . to ,des'cribe their gigantic ex. yloits, though his pencil is nnable•to keep pace with their labours, ['have a thousand things to tell you about Myself, but nothing can t think of relating, while a microscope would hardly discover so ditni. votive a being; stuck in some crevice of this tre. • mend us piece of grotto work, which itself scarcely a carbuncle on the nose of the West Indies. Here I have lived for a month, drawing from morning till night, free as the•goat that browses on the rock, and happy as the broodings of fancy, anti the goodness of every body around me, can make a mortal, in the Elysium , of ideas, and the luxury of high feelings. but I will now endeavour at something ItiOro like uiethcl, leseyou should conceive the heat, which is excessiee, has disordered'my brain more than it usu ally is, :The height of the Diamond is six hundred feet,. measured by a quadrant on board of the its circumference is nor quite a Mile, Martinique being close by within three quarters of a mile. The. south side of the rock is inaccessible, it being a .flat steep, like a wall, sloping a little towards the top, and the grass climbing up. The cast side is also inaccessible, with an overhanging cave about three hundred yards high; on the south.west side 'also are 0176 of great magnitude, .but perfedly,impregnable from that side. The west has breakers running in. to the sea, where' the people first landed ; here a: guard is placed, and a lodgment made for Stores; the landing is sometimes very dangerous, and at best you must creep tin your hands and feet, through crannies, till you wind to the north.west side,every moment endangering yoUr neck, should you slip. let last you reach the north-west, and here a .slope of green fig -trees, a beautiful grove, first. relieves the eye : this grove Mounts up, under an •immense grotto which Overhangs it, and here-51s - now the tent of the governor, Captain Close by stands the tent which Linhabit ; our family consists of a Newfoondiand dog, a car, kittet, and such wild sparroWs aid rabbits as e! , to visit us, The sue ,e often drives the spray as high as I sit it is a mu. of which the ear never, tires. I.mesa with Capt. Morris, and we generally have visitors e the fink of good nature is never,btoken, and we are as practise)) , liberal as Our circumstances and situ. tion,will admit ; eachlendi the 960 his sp ot:in, a pen-knife serves to cut op a joint,, acid fingers arc substitutes tut forks, Tlie tannage of the heart flows Iteite as purely as at the proudeSt board of ticloith tii4te ; it is unadulterated from ihesource of nature. A 'bottle Mrtdeita and Claret lid:ow' dinner, to the rentembraoce of out friends in Eng land., Fish, meions, Stc. _are sometimes brought from the Martinique shores, liy the small hoati which venture from gain or curiosity. ,We throw . the shot upon their shore, and bring everr,boat,' to if we' please. In the everting We walk. t i 'the Queep battery, thews tracing' oar rocky path along the overhangiog ridge, to the summit, where, or little:brbtherly tents !ipread , tbir canvas on, cross sticks, • and are barricadoed with stones. Warrned by the genial bowl, we shake hands, bid good night, retire upon time dried pais, arid, folledin blaoketS, , sleep shuts our weasy• eye-lids, while 'neither fear nor uneasiness intrinles no our repoae.. At night, the cootkual roving of the sea belOve is only Oct. . mord by the replies of Watehing , sentioela above-, or, the screowe of the rrcpic bird, who sweeps from the top to the v. a t!r to catch .fisk, which he providently lays tip in 41,rteht to feet, on by day. If then, brunet - tines - , till thought of those dioiant beings, dear tea affeetioe, keep thy senses awake, I behold the stares , eof the heavens as I lean on my elbow, d,mairt, and. trusting 1., toe waKetul eye of I TO. vidence, I sink in reflection—thought dissultirsL and oblivion removes every trace from the tablet of memory. There are some springs in the rock, but they are Of a Mineral nature, and occasion the gripes. Some tanks, Ito• Never, are building, and almost finished, which will in one day catch as much rain-water froin the rock as will serve the colony for half a yea:. place is very healthy, notwithstanding which an hispital has been begun, and the' walls are already mounting. I know not what the good people of England will think of so hazardous an undertaking, in a. place where no spade, can make an impression, and where every thing is 'blown and turn train it by mining ; the lime fetched from Sr. Lucia—the brie% cut' out with gunpowder —saws, hammers, c. made out .of old anchors—forges going—a ,, d all this 'within thc short time of about six weeks : for my own part . , J am astonished at the efforts of a single.ship's crew. Bur, hlwever perilous of ac. cess, the sailors bidid, like sea-lairds, their nest in the toast terrific caves. Like busy ants, the crew creep about the rude mass everywhere they are at work ; the saw, the—anvil, the axe, the grating file resound ; mines explode, and the flying fretg. MOMS rend the air. The Seamen cal; their corning there going dihore; and so powerful is this liberty-looking Wildness of nature to the minti , , that they return to the ship with reluctance, though often, while here, deprived of every comfort and allowance. Here they will work twice as hard, and conceal their being ill, and even die without help, rather than leave the barren rock to return on board: A few days' ago the Centaur drifted, was driven to sea, and we were left wit out water ; hut whatever I may have read of Roman heroism, I every day see more striking instances of that virtue among British - Seamen. Thirsty, and often without bread; in the, beat of the sun, on this comfortless, and at present .batten rock, in the face of the Enemy, who is ereling his works to throw bombs, they remove rocks, colonise a flinty soil without intermission and without inur.- tours, and can :still generously share the little which they have left. Here I have found, that I.m fine sayings of love of c, , uotry, and the hearty wishes of our native land, flow from the genuine warmth of the heart, • and evaporate not like the effusions of the bottle . , or the vauntings aplenty and a full belly. Here, resolutions are formed in • the face of want, and executed in despite of late„ -The boat's crew who out out the Curieux brig from under the batteries of Fort Royal., were 'true live: and fortune men of His Majesty. Wheothe Marines were gone from the rock the other day, on an Ex.. pedition, and in the 'middle of the night, the alarm was.given, and every man was in lice minutes on the batteries to defend His Majesty's roek.• The expiessions. which, in the momentary expeaation of danger, burst from the loyalty and courageous lOve of country from our Sailors, would shame •cite brightest passage of admired Sophocles ;. anti often would the death of .an humble tar appear with treater lustre than the laboured exit of a splendid Monarch, . . _ _ . The manner of feeling which Nature has given You it do different from the many, that I dare write to yo i l i n t h e language which costs me no trouble in composing. .1 am nOw sitting on the top of a rock, and an old barrel is my desk, with no other library than a blank pocket.book that I bought at Falmouth, and in which I both write. what I think f and draw what I see. Were it hot for the duties' which I owe to my . %family, and for the strong affedion which I beat them, I could stay on this rock all the days I have to live. It is to me one of those spots' on earth which are truly desirable ; it breathes all the inde. Pendence of Nature ; •it is large enough for the cu. rious inquirer of all the year round, yet not too large to be grasped by the mind every moment, or to be adually over.* in a few. hours; not far away from the rest or the world, it enjoys an ever. lasting 'spring, sheltered from heat arid rain, so that in the heaviest shower you may breakfast and dine ,in the open air ; and behold . the hurric,ine rage below and around, while you indulge in the. .gentle breeze. The habitable part, of which I have. spoken, is like a horse.shoe, the favourite shape of popular theatres, covered with a canopy of rock. But what are all theatres to this ? The Roman Elicit. tte is a .child's card.house to it ! The morning dawns ; the whole world waits as she draws the curtain ; the air is still, the ocean blazes . , and the hills catch fire. • Thus shine, methinks, the xvords and actions of good men, unlacquered with the leaf. gold of fashion. An everlasting change of scenery is displayed see the clouds encircling the tops of the, mountains ; now the sea, swept in shower , , and curling with squalls ; now the sun gilding the sogar.eant fields ; the . Sublime, of Nature is here so quickly and so agreeably mixed with the beau. OW, that the, mind has• nor time to be satiated- with objeas. When you are on the top, you behold the wtde world and the great ocean ;- the *Wahine fastens on the soul ; creation can pieseut notliink more g rand. When you descend, the green land, where you may see the carriages travel, and c,,ant the feeding sheep, sweetly relieves and beauties the scene ; nor has the trouble of descending subtran. eel frOm the pleasure. You have a sound appetite, a cheerful spit it, and you glory in health and exist. ence. So natural is the inborn love of the sublime, that could any inWbitant of the city pop his head out and behold so wide a tie d of n a ture, hi s s , nt i would be instantly itpcherge,i in it, ,and he would forget all his little c ;neerns'; and so sweet is the chatige fr om it to the minute and beautiful, that atter so trying a sight, you examine an insect or a fl o wer with infinite pleasure, sinking into the calm. nos of relaxation.
