pplOC:t UMW - GREAT FLOOD AND STORA AT BANFF. On Monday week Banff was visited by a storm and a good in the river which-exceeded iu magnitude anything ever before witnessed: On Sunday the weather was particularly mild, and although the tide was higher than was ever before recollected, no apprehensions were entertained, as the stream was taking off. About eleven o'clock, however, it began to rain, and the Wind,' which before was very moderate, increased, blowing from the south and south-east. About five o'clock on Monday morning, the wind changed to the north-east, and blew most violently, accompanied by very heavy rain, which. fell in sheets. This continued through the forenoon; but although it was ascertained that the rivulets in the neighbourhood were much swollen, no fears were enter tained of any serious flood in the river. About twelve o'clock, however, the water began to shove itself in the low parts of the town; and the inhabitants, warned by former occurrences, thought it necessary to . commence . p,reparations. About this time the storm was most ithat, and it was hardly possible to face it ; but just when it was at the-worst, an express arrived with intelligence, that a vessel was on shore among the rocks' at Melrose, a little to the eastward of Macduff. On being made ac quainted with this, the preventive service men stationed at Banff proceeded with Manby's Apparatus to the spot, and were followed by a number of the inhabitants, anxious to give their aid. On arriving they found that the un fortunate vessel had gone to pieces, but that two of the crew (ono having previously succeeded in getting ashore) were seated on a rock. The mortar was immediately discharged, and the rope was fortunately caught at first, by the poor men, who sncceeded in making it fast to the rock; this done, the cradle was lowered, and the poor lien were speedily rescued from their perilous situation. It was ascertained that the vessel was the Eliza, of Aber deen,. Morrison, master, loaded with herrings, from Fra serburgh to London. The men reported that a boy had been washed overboard on the Thursday before, off Aber.: dean, and that the. master and mate had unfortunately perished with the vessel. After performing this humane duty of rescuing these men from certain death, the pre ventive service men and their attendants had only reached Macduff when they were informed that another vessel was coming on shore at the back of the bar of Banff They immediately went to tie spt, and found the.: intelligence correct, for in a few minutes a vessel struck the shore. It was not necessary in this case to use the Apparatus; for the tide being - at the highest, and the vessel light, she had been forced so far up on the beach, that by joining hands it was found practicaLle to get hold of a rope thrown from the vessel, by Means of which the crew got on shore, and were saved. It was then ascertained that the vessel was the Vigilantia, of Stransund, near Persgrund, Norway, laden. with stave wood, for sale in this country, and, that she had last sailed from Fraserburgh to proceed to Wick. We may mention here that the cargo has been landed, and that the ship will be got off with very little damage. While these transactions were going on, the scene in the town was becoming most interesting; and, strange as it may ap pear,. danger was apprehended, not from the river, but from the sea. These apprehensions were well founded, for lung after the hour of tide the water continued to flow from the sea, over all the bulwarks into the lower parts of the town. The old market-place Was speedily filled, and the houses surrounding it were.flooded in their lower apartments; and by three o'clock p.m. the whole area of the old market-place was covered to the depth of several feet, and the water extended up the streets lead- Ing. from this to a considerable 'distance. Shortly before four o'clock, the .pressure of the water was so great as to force down the wall of Lord Fife's garden,and vent being thus given, the water flowed with great rapidity into his lardship's.park. This relieved the town for a short tune, but before five o'clock it was ascertained that the river Dead , overtopped its bulwarks, and that the water would soon rush through the Park, upon the lower parts of the town- Accordingly, in a very short time the, water began 1,11, to flow, and soon reached a height beyond that of I: 4 1 . lAt this time the scene was terrific, and great fears were entertained for the safety of lives and property. Boats were, however, soon procured, and all in jeopardy wete soon rescued.; and we have the satisfaction to say that no lives were lost- The destruction of property has, however, been immense; and one poor widow has bark her house (her sole property) completely swept away. She suffered to a less extent in 1829, and the damage was then repaired by subscription. From the sea, the accounts, in addition to what we have stated, are very afflicting, and still more are expected. Two vessels are oushore at Sandend, between Cullen and Portsov—the crews of both luckily saved. One is the Francis William of Cullen, not much damaged; and the other a north country trader, about ninety tons, considerably damaged. Four Davis' Strait men were seen off Whitehills, and had the wind not shifted, they mu s t h ave come on s hore. Luekily,, however, the wind changed about five o'clock to ..the north-west, when these vessels bore up; and there stn be no doubt that they succeeded: in clearing all the keadlands on their voyage sotitlawards.—Scottish Guar dian. DIPLOMACY EXTRAORDINARY. You will probably recollect that about the beginning of last August his Majesty's ships Stag, Clio, Tweed, and Pike sailed from hence with sealed orders. At first it. was generally taken for granted that their destination could be no other than the north coast of Spain; but when it was found that on going out of the bar of Lisbon they steered southward, and particularly when it was known that they had been seen to the south of the Straits of Gibraltar,..the object of their rei.esion became a theme of endless speculatien. I have now to inform yOu that the mystery is at an end, as the whole of them, except the Pike, artived'here between yesterday and to-day. It ap pears. our government had gained intelligence that the French, for the sake of monopolising the trade in gum, at Portendie, the seat of a black Moorish tribe a little to the north of Senegal, had picked a quarrel with the natives, and : made a sham declaration of war on the part of France, in order to have aplea for establishing a vigorous block ade, the object of which was to exclude all English. and foreign vessels from the trade, and leave the coast clear for those of their own nation. Of course, provided they could accomplish this purpose, the absurdity of continuing to traffic with the very place they were blockading, was with them a consideration of trifling weight. In the. meanwhile the Commander of the French force, consist ing of a sloop of war and three gun brigs, went on nego tiating with the black Chief for a treaty of peace, the principal condition for which was to be, that all other foreigners, and especially the English,: should for ever after be shut out from the trade of the place; and, in order to quiet some vague apprehensions which the princely nigger seemed to be labouring under, he assured him that he had nothing, to fear from England, as King William had no navy, or, in the black's. own words to Captain Lockyer, "no big ships." The alternative, in case this proposal was, not acceded to, was, that he would blow the town about' his ears. With respect to big skips, however, the French Captain soon discovered that he.had been out a point or two in his reckoning, for while this parleying was, going, on, the officer on the look-out an nounced that some three or four very suspicious lo o king craft had just hove in sight. One of the French brigs was immediately despatched to reconnoitre the strangers, and soon returned with the unwelcome intelligence that it was one of King William's big ships.and three smaller ones. Captain Lockyer, of the Stag (the Commodore,) having previously learned all that bad been going on from one of the three English merchant schooners which had been turned out of the port, was not at a loss hoW, to act. On arriving he at once proceeded to anchor his squadron between the French and the t ow n, so as to, make it.impossible for them to fire at it but through him, a step whieh4hey-evidently deemed it most prudent not LO venture ttropl:.: suni.. up all, the. fa co -of. a n accom— modation between the belligerents having been gone through, and matters restored io, every respect to their ancient footing, a good deal of visiting and dining ensued between the French and English officers till the latter came away, having before they returned here touched at the Gambia and at Senegal, at the latter of which places they were treated with the politest attention, by the French Governor,—Lisbon Letter of a Contemporary. JOHN BULL FROM HOME AND AT HOME. John is a curious fellow, and we do not well know what to make of him. Just now, although so tristful and down hearted in towns and cities, he is all alive and ap parently well furnished with cash in other parts of the empire. One-half of the world. is mad for watering places. Every thing is forgotten in a sea-side mania; whether the dog-days influence us, we cannot tell; but certain it is, that our wise citizens are now all agog, steaming away in every direction—north, south, east, and west, as if running from the plague, the plague of bad times we must suppose. Croak, croak, croak has been the " tuneful song" for the last two or three months—not a sovereign to pay the butcher or baker, and rent and seryants' wages in arrear—when lo hoards of money are turned QUt, and " hey, cap and away" is the cry, and hundreds and, thousands of our ruined citi zens have a regular saturnalia of enjoyment. Now, in deed, " -Every city-wife and daughter Feels that the dipping rage bat caught her, Scarce can they rest upon their pillows, For musing on machines and billows; Or, should they slumber, 'tis to dream All night of Margate and of steam." It is amusing to tneet with John Bull at these haunts, so determined does he appear to be to make himself com fortable " a fico for the world" becomes his motto, and he calls into their fullest activity his eating, drinking, and idling propensities. We part with our acquaintan ces in town, all having faces of marvellous longitude, with a most woe-begone espect, and groaning out "bank ruptcy, bankruptcy," at every turn. We find them in. their marine and rural abodes, absolutely metamorphosed. N: - ,tliing to be heard or seen but hilarity and light-lx-art edness. "We came here," they exel dm, "to enjoy.our selves;" and truly they strive most gallantly so to do. But how's it that * John Bull is so jovial from borne, and so stupid and desponding when at, home ? Why should he caper and curvet in all the wantonness of glee in a country retreat—arid why, when. in his stall in London and elsewhere, should he roar and bellow in disquietude, From the apprehension of starvation and ill-treatment ? This is one of the mysteries of John's character, and it would lead us to hope that his estate is not so desperate as lie would fain have us think. Let.us cheer up and be of good courage ; for, notwithstanding John Bull's la mentations, we believe him to .be sound at heart, and that ere long he will shine out in his native beauty and strength—toss off his vexations like "Dew from a lion's mane," .and. stand forth the pride and- protector of his kind.— Constitutional Magazine. A MAN AND TIGER COMBAT.; • (From the Oriental Herald ) The next scene was of a far more awful character. A man entered the arena armed only with a Coorg knife, and clothed in short trowsers, which barely covered his hips, and extended half-way down the thighs. The in which he wielded in his right hand was a heavy blade, something like the coulter of a plough _about two feet long, and full three inches wide, graduall y diminish ing towards the handle, with, which it formed a right angle. This knife is used with great dexterity by the 'Coorgs; being swung round in the hand before the blow is inflicted, and then brought into contact with the object intended to be struck with a force and effect truly astound ing. The champion, who now presented himself before the Rajah, was about to be opposed to a tiger whiCh he volun teered to encounter almost naked, and armed only with the weapon I have just described. He was rather tall, %tithe slight figure, but his chest was deep, his arms long and muscular. His legs were thin, yet the action of the muscles was perceptible with every movement; whilst the freedom of his gait and the few contortions he per formed preparatory to the hazardous enterprise in which he was about to engage, showed that he possessed un common activity, combined with no ordinary . degree of strength:. The expression of his Countenance was ab solutely sublime when he gave the signal for the tiger to be let loose ; it was the very concentration, of moral energy—the index of a highand settled resolution. His betty glistened with the oil which had been rubbed Over it in order to promote the elasticity of his limb's. He raised. his arm for several moments above his head when he made the motion to admit his enemy into the arena. The bars of a large cage were instantly lifted from above; a huge royal tiger sprang forward and stood before the Coorg, waving his tail slowly backward andforward, erecting the hair upon it, and uttering a suppressed howl. The animal first looked at the man, then at the gallery where the Rajah and his court were seated to see elle sports, but did not appear at all easy in its present state of freedom : it was evidently confounded at the novelty of its position. After a short survey, it turned suddenly round and bounded into its cage ; from which the keepers, who stood above, beyond the reach of mischief, tried to force it, but in vain. The bars were then dropped, and several crackers fastened to his tail, which projected through one of the intervals. A, lighted match was put into the hands of the Coorg, the bars were again raised, and the crackers ignited.— The tiger now darted into the arena with a terrible - yell; and while the crackers were exploding, it leaped, turned and writhed as if in a state of frantic excitement. It at length crouched in a corner, gnarling as a cat does when alarmed. Meanwhile, its retreat had been cut off by se curing-the cage. During the explosion of the crackers, the Coorg stood watching his enemy, and at length ad vanced towards it with a slow but firm step. The tiger roused itself and retreated, the fur on its back being erect, and its tail apparently dilated to twice the usual size. It was not at all disposed to commence hostilities, but its resolute foe was not to be evaded. Fixing his eyes intently upon the deadly creature, he advanced with the same measured step, the tiger retreating as before, but. still pi esenting his front to its enemy. The Coorg now stopped suddenly; then moving slowly, backward, the tiger raised itself to its full height, curved its back to the necessary segment for a spring, and lashed his tail, evidently meditating mischief. The man continued to retire ; and so soon as he was at so great a distance that the fixed expression of his eye was no longer distin guishable, the ferocious brute made a sudden bound for ward, crouched and sprung with a short, sharp growl. Its adversary, fully prepared for this, leaped actively on one side, and as the tiger reached the ground, swung. round his heavy knife and brought it with irresistible force upon the animal's hind leg, just above the joint. The bone was instantly severed, and the tiger effectually prevented from making a second spring. The wounded beast roared; but turning suddenly on the Coorg, who had by this time retired several yards, advanced fiercely upon him, his wounded leg hanging loose in the skin, showing that it was broken. The tiger, now excited to a pitch of reckless rage, rushed forward upon its three legs, towards its adversary, who stood with his heavy knife upraised, calmly waiting the encounter. As soon as the -savage creature was within his reach, he brought down the ponderous weapon upon its head with a force which nothing could resist, laid open the skull from ear to-ear, and the vanquished foe fell dead at his feet. He then coolly wiped the knife on the animal's hide, made a dignified salaam to the Rajah, and retired amid the loud acclamations of the spectators. THE MAGAZINES. FRASER. Fraser.'s Magazine for November, like the month of November, is cold, dull, and foggy, enlivened only by a few transient gleams of sunshine of but very short du ration ;. in other words, its contents are neither very sprightly, very witty, nor very profound. In "The Gallery of Literary Characters" we find, a portrait of the. Earl of Alulgrave, the novel-writing Lord Lieutenant of of Ireland, together with a pen-and-ink sketch of that distinguished representative of majesty, which we copy for the perusal of such of our readers as may not have seen the original—either in type or in persrin : We present our rcadars the ex-Governor General of Jamaica, the president of the Garriek, and the Lord Lieutenant of Ire land. Among. literary men he. is known or heard of as the author. of several novels, which have not materially contributed to swell his repute.; among fashionable people he is distinguished as an amateur actor, who is equally meritorious iu the perform ance of Hamlet and the Cock. We recollect him when he used to perform in Florence all manners of characters to all manners a audiences; and we. never failed to appreciate the discriminat ing civility with which, after having crowded his rooms with a miscellaneous collection of all the English wild could be found tolerant enough to listen to him, he used to go through the weary: mob, nviting a select few, in the hearing of the whole company, to remain.to supper, (a little supper he used to call it, and in that particular he amply kept his word,) to the.exclu sionsof the indignant muki,ude, who thought that, in common justice, they should have had something to wash down his lord ship's dose of histrionism Our attis -is rather too favourable to M.ulgrave, Thank. 0 to Del roix, or some other artist of that, profession, tbe,locks look exuberant still; but wo wotth the day! crowsfeet tell about the temples, and deep wrinkl es b eseain th e we ll- rou g e d fa ce. B ut still, when duly curled, oiled,, painted, and lighted up, he doi!a look passably well, and might be trusted in a tlaird-yate walking gentleman cast. He is at present showing off in a part for which he is just as much fitted as he •is fur enacting Romeo ' but one in which he can do more mischief than could attend the must vigorously hissed performance that ever disgraced a theatre. • Perhaps his excellency may have stumbled on the second part of Henry 1 7 1., iu which Jack Cade makes his appearance. This great, retosiner declared that the laws of England should come out Of his mouth (which even his own partisans allowed to be foetid and disgusting)—that that mouth should be •the parlia ment Of England—that he would leave no lord or gentleman in the land=-that" a uniform destruction should talte.place„.so - thaL all Men•shoutd be - aritived'in one livery, and worship him their lord.. Iu these partictilars we have now a revived Jack Cade ; bitt •do we compare the undaunted ‘• Mortimer, lord of the city,"' to O'Connell ? They both may be designated beggars ; but the beggary of Cade was valiant. He had no vow in heaven to pro tect him from the consequences of his outrages; nor, on the other hand, could he, atter ho had doomed the nobility to go in leathern apron's," have found a representative of the king to allow him to play the part of "protector over him." That was reserved for our own times. Mulgrave is poor, and is glad to escape from the eleemosynary hospitality of the Duke of Devonshire on any terms. He is vain, and the title of viceroy must tickle his fancy. We are told that he is annoyed at the marked absence of the Irish gen try from his parties or levees; but the shouting in the upper gallery compensates its his ear for the hissing of the boxes; and we recommend him to exhibit at Donnybrook grinning through a horse-collar, which would at once show his features in their most appropriate expression, and afford the most congenial gra tification to the friends on whom he relies. In the short list of his ancestors we find that one invented a diving-bell—typical of sinking and mud-seeking propensities—that another was that Lord Chancellor of Ireland who was made the victim of Cur ran's bitterness inure than half a century after his death, and about another half-century before his descendant grovelled at the hoofs of those who adhere to al4 the sedition, without a tithe of the talent, of Curran—that another (Commodore Phipps) was, like his nephew, sent upon an experimental voyage, in which he had no great success—and that formerly his excel lency's father enjoyed, for good reason, (vide Cobbett,) the title of Lord Lottsdale's boots. The noble son plays the part of boots to a very different person. To conclude. Mulgrave is about forty years old—desperate ly hard up—a most industrious scribbler—a capital led-captain —a passable buffoon; but when we see him sent to govern Ireland just now, we are irresistibly reminded of one of his own novels, and must say,— By Yes and No, but it is very strange," BLACK WOOD. "Shall we overturn the Peers ?"—Upon this text Blackwood has a good article, which concludes, after ar guing the question very ably, by giving the peers some Judicious advice as to their most prudent course of action in the ensuing session of parliament. Let them (says Blackwood) be invariably and scrupulously legal and constitutional in all their proceedings, and that , equally whether in or out of power. Let them exercise the powers, and the powers only, which the constitution has con ferred, and shun, as their worst enemy, any illegal or even doubtful act. Let the infamy, the horrid and damning infamy of any coup d'etat, or violent stretch, rest with the revolutiunisp, and the revolutionists alone. Let Melt confine themselves to' -~.z-w-~r'~' THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. their constitutional power of rejecting or modifying all bills sent up to them from the commons, and do this invariably with every bill which has a tendency to increase the already over charged democratic parts of the constitution. Let their prin ciple be, that not a single conservative vote is either directly or indirectly to be sacrificed, and not a single addition made to the , radical ones. Let thera stick to the constitution as it is, with all its present faults, with scrupulous fidelity. To obviate the effect of this truly couseryatiye polity the re volutionists will t a k e care to send up to them no bills but those which confer an addition on democratic power; and,..if they return such bills with the spoliating or revolutionary clauses expunged, reject them ; as they did with thee. Irish church bill, altogether. In this way they will hope to swell the cry against the peers as obstinately opposed to all improvement; to which they mainly look for the means of overthrowing their authority. To meet this danger let them prepare, and pass through the upper house, a number of bills having a practically beneficial, but no democratic tendency--ample field for such improvement, divested of all revolutionary danger, exists.. In extending the means of emigration, establishing poor's rates on a rational sys tem iu Ireland, simplifying and improving the laws, facilitating the distribution of land to the industrious poor, and divesting the dove payments of all their p resen t cau s e s o f irritation—a bound less field for such asefnl, safe, and beneficent legislation is to be found. Let them originate, in short, in the upper house the safe improvements which Sir Robert Peel a-as preparing in the commons when he was driven from- office, and throw- upon the lower the odium of rejecting such beneficial measures, because they have not a revolutionary character. It is by holding out improvement and revolution as inseparable that all the triumphs of the democrats have been won; it is by affording a practical proof of their separation, and a steady resistance to democracy as the worst enemy of amelioration, that the due ascendancy of conservative principles is to be restored. Pursuing such a calm, resolute, and beneficent course, the peers will be sate to defeat any revolutionary coup d'etat to overturn their authority. They will do more; they will prevent it. We take from "Sacred Poetry of the Seventeenth Century" (a review of " The Sacred Classics, or Cabinet Library. of Divinity") the following address of mercy to the Deity " ' Who shall thy temple incense any more, Or at thy alar crown the sacrifice, Or strew with idle flowers the hallowed floor? • Or what should prayer deck with herb's and spice Her vials, breathing orisons of price? • If all must pay that which all cannot pay, 0 first bygin with Inc, and Mercy slay, And thy thrite-honoured Son, that now beneath doth stray. " But if or He, or I, may live and speak, And haven can joy to see a sinner weep, Oh, let not Justice' iron sceptre break • A heart already broke; that low (loth creep, Andwith prone humblesse her feet's dust cloth sweep. - ' Must all go by desert ? nothing free? • • Ahl if but th - ose that only worthy be, None should thee ever see, 'none should thee ever see. " What hath man done . that man shall notundu, Since God te him is grown so near akin? Did his foe'slay him ? he shall slay his foe • . Hathlielost all? he all again shall win: Is sin his master? he shall master sin. Too hardy soul, with sin the field to try: - The only way to conquer was to fly; But thus lung death hath lived, and now death's self shall die. • " He is a path, if any be misled ; He is a robe, if any naked be: If any chance to hunger, he is bread; •If any be a bondman, he.is free; If any be but weak, how strong is he! To dead men life be is, to sick men health; To blind men sight, and to the needy wealth— A pleasure without loss, a treasure without stealth. " Who can forget—never to be forgot— The time that all the world in slumber lies, When, like the stars, the singing angels shot To earth, and heaven awaked all his eyes To see another skin at midnight rise On earth? Was never sight of pareil fame; For God before man like himself did frame, But God himself now like a mortal man became. " A child he was, and had not learned to speak That with his word the world before did make; His mother's arms him bore, he was so weak, That with one hand the vaults of heaven could shake. See how small room my infant Lord doth take, Whom all the world is not enough to hold! Who of his years, or of his age, bath told ? Never such age so young, never a child so old. " And yet but newly he was infanted, And yet already he was sought to die; Yet scarcely born, already banished; Not able yet to go, and forced to fly : But scarcely fled away, when, by and by, The tyrant's sword with blood is all defiled, And Rachael, for her sons, with fury wild, Cries, 0 thou cruel kingl and, 0 my sweetest child ! " Egypt his nurse became, where Nilus springs, Who straight to entertain the rising sun The hasty harvest in his bosom brings; But now for drought the fields were all undone, And now with waters all is overrun : So fast the Cvnthian mountains ponr'd their snow, When once they felt the sun so neer them glow, That Nilus Egypt lost, and to a sea did grow. " ' The angels carol'd loud their song of peace; The cursed oracles were stricken dumb; To see their Shepherd the poor shepherds press; To see their King the kingly sophies come; And, them to guide unto his master's home, A star comes dancing up the orient, That springs for joy over the starry tent, 'Where gold, to make their prince a crown, they all present. " Young John, glad child! before he could be born, Leap'd in the womb, his joy to prophesy; Old Anna, though with age all - spent and worn, Proclaims her Saviour to posterity, And Simeon fast his dying notes Both ply. Oh, how the blessed souls about htm trace It is the Sire of heaven thou dost embrace: Sing, Simeon, sing—sing, Simeon, sing apace!' " With that the mighty thunder drupt away From God's unwary arm, now milder grown, And melted into tears, as if to pray For pardon, and for pity, it had known, That should have been for sacred vengeance thrown: There, too, the armies angelic devow'd Their former rage, and• all to Mercy bow'd; Their broken weapons at her feet they gladly strow'd." DUBLIN UNIVERSITY. - - • - - - - Turn we now to "The Dublin University Magazine," an admirable conservative periodical, whose promising infancy and vigorous adolescence we have witnessed with, something like fraternal, if not paternal anxiety, as the production of a country from whence but few good things are expected, and as the undaunted champion of " Church and King" principles against the enslaving doctrines of p o pery, the sneers of atheism, and the wiles of infidelity. The leading political article in this number, to which we would direct the especial attention of our readers, is " The. Present is. not a:Crisis ;" an, article that would, bear acorn , parson with the best that has been written.on the Pli• tics of the day. Like its conservative contemporaries, Fraser of " Gotham," and Black Wood of " The Modern Athens," this number is, perhaps, somewhat too ponder ous to suit the taste of magazine readers generally,. who most commonly refer to them as a source of amus6ment. We take an extract from " R a mbli ng R eco ll ect ions, No. V.:"-- "We were not many hours in Reme until we visited Saint Peter's, Having entered 'the eternal city' by the Porta Ange lica, we passed in flout of the church, and our curiosity was too strongly excited to allow any delay before we inspected the in terior'orthis wonder ofthe world.' Provided with a cicerone and a guide-book, we crossed the Tiber by the bridge of San Angelo,. and turning to the left up a. narrow. and filthy street, entered the Grand Piazza. Much as-the stranger may be pre pared to admire, his imagination will fall infinitely short of the scene that presents itself. A splendid colonade, with quadruple columns, farms a semicircular sweep, and nearly incloses the vast area. In the centre : stands the Egyptian obelisk of red gra nite, between two ekquisite , fountains, which throw their waters to a height of forty feet. Under a covered portico, surmounted by equestrian statues el Constantine and Charlemagne, we en tered by the middle door. Suddenly the curtain was I.vithdiawn, and the interior burst upon us with a magnificent beauty, that even the poet's fancy could not create. "'l'u describe Siunt Peter's is impossible. On everrside the. richest marbles present themselves, so elaborately beautiful, that the eye can hardly rest upon any individual effort of the chisel sufficiently long to End out half its charms. The mosaic work is so exquisite, that it seems, for a time to have been produced• by the pencil; while through lofty arches chapels, and tombs, and altars, crowd upon the gaze, and offer a coup d'teil that produces a mingled feeling of astonishment and delight. "And yet on this grand and wondrous Risplay, my companion looked with indifference!' r ezed-ariound with rapturous sur prise, as, advancing up the nave, the. altar in our front, by a curious optical illusion, appeared receding as we approached it. Passing the bronze image of the patron saint, once the Jupiter of the Capitol, our guide, whiffle enumerating its beauties, di rected our attention to the toes, which, as he averred, were polished by the kisses of the faithful. Mr. M'Derinott, with an Irreverence that startled the cicerone, observed that "were feet to be saluted, there were ancles before him that he would prefer to every saint's in the calendar"—and he pointed to a kneeling devotee. Although my excellent friend did not speak the purest Tuscan, the lady appeared to understand the compliment; and, lifting her dark and sparkling eyes from her rosary, requited it with a gracious smile, while, shocked at the desperate impiety that would compete sinful flesh with sainted bronze, the guide, like a true catholic, crossed himself devoutly, as he muttered a jobation against our heretical unbelief. "The Capitol !—what recollections are associated with the name! Through filth and wretchedness and ruins we reached its base, and by a lofty flight of marble stairs mounted to the church of Aro - Crelia, situated on the eastern summit Of the hid, where the temple of Jupiter once stood. "Here an infinity of objects command-the traveller's notice. Paintings, sculpture, and numerous remnants of antiquity are abundantly collected in the museums adjoining the senator's house. On none of these, however, did Mr. M`Deriuott vouch safe his observation : all his attention was bestowed upon the equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius, which occupies the centre of the piazza. The guide was extravagant in his admiration, while my companion .declitred that the emperor was seated on a brood mare! A fiery altercation ensued, and often was ray judgment appealed to. The cicerone eulogised the head ana neck, and the Hibernian denounced the belly. Without being skilful in horseflesh, 1 must admit that justice lay with Mr. IPllerznott, for the abdominal proportions of the steed are pre postereus. The figure of the emperor, however, is nobly de signed, and redeems the partial deformity of his charger. "Our last visit was to the Pantheon; by far the best pre served temple of ancient Rome. The inscriptions in front of the building intimate its having been erected by M. Agrippa twenty-six years before the christian era. The Pantheon is celebrated for the beauty of its proportions. It is ornamented with sixteen columns formed from single blocks of oriental gra uite, each fourteen feet in circumference, and nearly forty in height. There are no windows in the building, light king ad mitted through a circular opening in the roof. This matchless temple is now used as a church, and dedicated to the virgin and holy martyrs. Around the walls are many busts of striking ,1 beauty, displaying a curious variety of likenesses; f or sculptors and monks, painters and cardinals are all intermingled there. "We happened to be present while mass was being celebrated. The priest was excessively ill-looking, and his audience consisted of a dozen of the shabbiest paupers that Rome itself could pro duce. now we drew down upon us the ire of his reverence, I could never discover; but attracted by his noise and gesticula tion, we soon discovered that his discourse was directed to our , selves; and, to judge from the manner of the orator, his re marks were anything but complimentary. The ruffian auditory I! began t o gr i n at us, an d t h e gu id e h inte d t h at i t would. be pru r dent to b ea t a retreat. B ut M ac was o b st i nate in remaining, and swore sturdily that be. would not quit the Pantheon for the pope! The storm momently lowered; the priest anathematiied awfully; and niy companion responded in an unknown tongue. The mutterings of the banditti that surrounded the preacher alarmed use, and, I joined our cicerone in urging my companion to retire. He did so reluctantly. ' What the devil were you afraid of ?' was the first remark, when we were safe outside the walls. 'DO you think I cared for his curses, if he bellowed till he was black in the face ? Was 1 oot called out in the chapel at home? my name, indeed, was not mentioned; but Father Murphy described me to a hair. Ah, if you only understood Irish; for one blessing we got, the mountebank bad three!' Indeed I believe it was the case; for during the maledictory struggle, Mr. M'Dermott's volubility was astonishing. "As a set-off against the anathemas of the monk of the Parr theou, we have received the benediction of the soveeeign pontiff, and returned. to oar hotel, delighted with the urbanity and gen tleness of a most interesting old man. Having reached the palace, we found that our arrival was most opportune,. for- titer pope was desCending the ataist#, to enter his carriage, which was waiting at the door; and we were just in time to gain the-end of the hall before .he made his appearance. A servant politely directed us to. kneel, and pointed out the best and most conve nient situation to observe the person,of his holiness, and obtain his blessing.' A buzz announced the pope's entrance; down we popped upon our knees, as a little figrue, `clothed in purple and fine linen,' advanced with great dignity. "Pius VII. appeared to have passed his eightieth year, but . was Still a well-looking old man. He was dressed in a cream coloured goWn, lined with crimson ; and hound round his middle by a sash. His hat was crimson silk, its broad brim looped up at the sides. Scarlet breeches and stockings, with shoes of the same colour, and trimmed with geld fringe, completed his cos tume. "Perceiving that we were English, he advanced towards us, while we bowed our heads, and. received his benediction. The ceremony was scarcely aver, when our risibility was excited by a great overfed, thick-winded devotee, waddling after his holi ness upon. his hands and knees, and kissing his toe devoutly. This piety was, of conrse, requited with a benison, and he was made happy. Accompanied by a number of gentlemen, the, pope proceeded to his carriage; we: joined the train; and as he. drove off, he returned our salutation with marked urbanity. "Even this quiet scene could not pass over without toy met , : curial companion involving us in a scrape. As we were leaving' the palace, a genteel locking attendant came forward and inti mated that he was a domestic of the pontiff. The best. and nest , appropriate reply was to hand bias a few paula; a second, with a graceful bow, assured us that ho was also of the household; another subsidy was presented; a third ai r ! a f our th succee d e d ; .but when, the fifth laid claim to our consideratine. Mr. M'Der inott's irascible temperature was directly in a blaze, and push ing the applicant aside, he consigned the whole establishment, in one fell swoop, to pandemonium! Fortunately his English was as unintelligible to the footman, as his Irish had been tathe monk; and I ended the argument by removing my refractory companion, "A visit to St. John Latern concluded our peramhulations over ` . the eternalcity.' This church was erected by Constan-• tine, and as an object of interest to the traveller, is considered only second to St. Peter's. it stands near the Porta Gievanni, and many have been the casualities it has undirgone; over thrown by an earthquake-.—rebuilt—burnt down—reconstructed and enlarged. In it the Corsino chapel is erected, where, in a beautiful sarcophagus of porphyry, the. ashes of Clement NM. are deposited. The carious in relics would be highly gratified at tbe interesting collection exhibited to the faithful on Holy Thursday. A. more miscellaneous assortment never delighted a devotee. Here are the heads of St. Peter and St. Paul; a lock of the virgin's bait; a part of her petticoat; a role . of Christ; some of his blood in a bottle; the table on which the last supper was laid oat; splinters of the ark of the covenaret; the rods of Moses and Aaron; . and the identical pillar on whirls the cock perched who crowed when Peter denied his Master But these are of small account compared with the holy. stair case opposite the church, by which our Saviour descended from the judgment-seat of Pilate. None are permitted to ascend except upon their knees, and to descend is totally prohibited. If the task of mounting be troublesome, verily the reward is great; for an indulgence of three thousand years is granted to the operator. At the top of the staircase is the 'holy of holies,' and a most uninviting place it looks. I recommended Mr; M'Dermott to liberate himself from the load of his sins, as he never could effect it on easier conditions; but with heretical obstincy he rejected my advice, a_iad, chose the other staircase." A NOTORIOUS SWINDLER CONVIOThD AND TRANSPORTED.— At the Exeter sessions, on 'Ttiesday week, Thomas Greenslade was indicted for having fraudulently obtained a large amount of property by means of false pretences: he was also charged with forgery, in having falsified certain legal documents. The prisoner, after a long trial, was found gniity, and sentenced to be transported for seven years. The scoundrel thus sent upon his travels was a professional swindler. About two or three y ea r s ago, Liverpool was the scene of his swindling transac tions. After working some time at his trade, as a coachroaker, he gave it out that he had become heir to a large property. He took a house in Cambridge-street, and ordered furniture, &c., to a large amount, which he converted into cash, by conveying it away and selling it. Some of the tradesmen who had supplied him with goods charged. him with swindling. Against these persons he brought actions, which were settled by a compro mise, the tradesmen he had swindled paying the swindler a sum of money to get rid of the actions! The newspapers of the town having given an account of his swindling transactions, he brought actions for libel against the proprietors of the Albion, the Journal, the Chronicle , the Mercury, and Go re ' s Ad ver ti ser , besides journals in other towns which had copied the statement, 'laying his damages at £5OOO. Some of these actions were also compromised; but we and our brethren put in a justification, and applied for and obtained a change of venue from London to Liverpool. The consequence was, that the fellow, who had expected to make money by a compromise, dare pot come to trial in a4own where his character was so well known; and his conviction at the Exetet sessions has relitied us and OR, brethren from all Anther annoyance from a most consummate siSindler.—Licerpoot paper.
