(We are glad to see the authorities, who have the choice of the
subject of the Greek Ode, have fixed on a subject PO well silted
to the time as this. The University should have credit for the set
beyond the circle of those who are acquainted with the Greet
classics. The passage is the beautiful exhalation to the Greeks
at the battle of Salim* extracted from the Perm of AForSyku.
" Oh ! sons of the Greeks, go on—free your °Gentry, free year
" children, your wires,—it is now for all these you struggle." The
result of the battle of Salamis pas the liberalism of Greece from
invaders, though much IMM detestable and oppressive ones than
the Turks. The poet himself fought at Sal..nus.]
LATIN ODE:
Alrppo Uris Syria. terra 4notufrosiilior roma.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE BRITISH PRESS.

Stit--Itake the liberty of addressing a few lines to you, which
I should feel obliged if you would insert in your Journal. flaying
had a pane of glues cut in our shop-window, said a variety of sitter
pencil-cases and erpenaive pen-knives, together of the value d
r about 31. kas near as we can ascertain the number of articles we
have had stolen from it), perhaps the publicity year Paper would
afford the eircamcance would in all probability create a degree at
caution to tradesmen not to put any small articles of value near we
glees, and thereby prevent the tetnptation to dishonest fere= te
steal by this means. The articles we have had stolen were pistol
lh a leather tray, close against the glass, and we suppose the parties
here disturbed at their work, as the next *genre of glass was else
attempted to be broken in the same manner ; and bad they sue-
eaeded, a booty of the same value would have bees acquired in the
articles of silver and ivory penholders for the patent pens. To add
to the audacity of the above, it was committed between the hours
of nine and one o'clock this day.
I aim Sir.

P.S. A friend of mine in the same business has lately had he
window cut four times; but in consequence, it is supposed. of inter.
ruption, nothing was stolen from it.

The Last was called the Cheap Lottery, hat people ges
terally consider it the truest test of cheapness where they are of-
fered most for their money. Now the last ctintaiesed only Three
kreasitid I Prises of 20,0001. whilst the present contains Prizes of
20,0001. in money or stock, yet both the Lotteries ' of the
same cumber of Tickets. Let therefore the ful orphan Bale-
, of. Three question be put to any school-boy-.-if e Slieranth Share
having the chant of Three Prises of 20,01,40 k cost IL Is. hid.
what is the saute share worth when it has One chance of Sam of
20,0001. ? The answer will be 21. les. 2d., yet the present price ii
only half that sum, and other Shares in proportion ! There is
little doubt therefore of a gr.*t demand for the present Lottery.
