What, exclaims the Walpole editor, would
lave been the feelings of Goldfmitb, were he
now living, to witness the ruin of a country
like Switzerland, whose happyflate he has so
correal, painted in his 66 Traveller." The
insults of a French fddiery,and the enormous
contributions levied by officers of higher au
thority, would doubtleft have tinged his pen
cil with colouring of a different dye ; And
the wrongs of an injured nation would have
been immortalized by the poet, tho' the, are
now frejb in the memory of us all. Thefol
lowing is a lively picture of the content of
the cottage, where the conflant absence of
luxury never created a wifo t—
" Tho' poor the pcafant's hut,his feaft tho' froall,
He fees his little lot the lot cf all ;
Secs no contiguous palace rear its head,
To fhanre the meanness of his humble shed,
No costly lord the sumptuous banquet deal)
To make him loathe his vegetable meal ;
But calm, and bred in ignorance and toil,
Bach wish contrasting, fits him to the foil.
Cheerful as morn, he walers from short 'repofe,
Breathes the keen air, and carols as he goes;
With patient angle trolls the finny deep,
Or drives his vertrous ploughshare to the steep;
Or fecks the den, where friow-tracks marks the
way,
And drags the struggling savage into day.
At night returning, every labor sped,
He fits him down, the monarch of* shed ;
Smiles by his cheerful fire, and round surveys
His children's looks, that brighten at the blaze ;
While his lov'd partner, boaflful cf her hoard,
Bifplays her cleanly platter on the board,
And hafply, too some pilgrim thither led,
With man, a tale repays the nightly bed."
The prefnt piaure of martial France ex
hibits more sanguinary features than rice find
Jhe poffeft in the numbers of Goldfmitb. —
Anna virumque too would grace the
opening of his poem, were the author of the
Traveller now in being. As that country
was, when " & flaxen-headed cowboy," he
charmed the ruJlics with his flute, he gives
us the following just representation ;—
" Gay, sprightly land of mirth and social ease,
Pleas'd with thyfelf, whom all the world can
please,
How often have I led thy sportive choir,
With tuneless pipe, beside the murm'ring Loire !
Where shading elms along the margin grew,
And, frefhen'd from the wave, the zephyr flew !
And haply, though my harsh touch fault'ring
till,
But mod'd all tune,and marr'd the dancer's skill
Yet would the village praise my wond'rous
power,
And dance, forgetful of the noontide hour ;
Alike all ages. Dames of ancient days
Have led their childaen through the mirthful
maze;
And the gay grandfire, Fill'd in gcftick lore,
Has frifkd beneath the burden of threcfcorc."
Libert, is a theme on which youthful po
ets generally try tlxir ripening powers. It
is expqnfae, and opens a wide field for the
excutfems of ever, maiden muse. The op
portunity thus afforded b, it, cf differing
the powers of poetry, is, perhaps, the real
reason of its praises being jo often sung,
rather than expe?ience fits bleffmgs, which
are rarely realized. Goldfmitb is one of
those who have invoked the air, Goddess, but
hrs invocation is of that chrftened kind, !
which shuns comparison with the barlot of\
Hcentio ufnefs.
" But when contending chiefs blockade the
throne,
Contradung regal power, to swell their own,
When I behold a "dious band agree
To call it freedom, when theroft Ives are free ;
Each wanton judge new penal statutes draw,
Laws grind the poor, and rich men rule the law,
The wealth of climes,where savage nations roam,
Pillag'd from slaves to purchase slaves at home ;
Fear, pity, justice, indignation start,
Tear off reserve, and bare my swelling heart,
Till, half a patriot, half a coward grown,
1 fly from petty tyrants to the throne."
MEDLEY—No. 19 i. 1

CHARLES YORKE.
"WHEN the late Mr. Charles Yorke was re
turned member of Parliament for the university
bf Cambridge, he went round the senate to thank
those, who had voted for him, and Aid to one of
them noted for having a very long and ordinary
face, " Sir, 1 have reason to be thankful to my
friends in general, but I conftfs myfelf under a
particular obligation to you for the very remark
able countenance, you have (hewn me on this occa
tion.” -
TULLOS.
The celebrated Flechier, bithop of
Nifmes, was the son of a tallow chand
ler. A proud duke once endeavored
to mortify the prelate, by faying at the
tevee that he smelt of tallow ; to which
the other replied, " My lord, I am the
son of a tallow chahdler, 'tis true, and
if your lordship had been the faine, you
would have remained a tallow chandler
all the days of your life."
