But the great novelty of this Number is the review of
Mr.. Shelley's poetry. We have heard that it *a.; written I
by a young Gentleman of very promising genius, who had I
just left school, and vas placed with an attorney in the ,
city. The style of this paper is rather Solid, and perhaps
a little obscure ; but these are the faults of youth, and will I
wear off when the young Gentleman has discovered that
criticism is not impaired by being made intelligible to an
ordinary capacity. On the whole, we congratulate Mr.
Jeffrey on his recruit.
Like the Reviewer, we were always of opinion that Mr.
Shelley, with great poetical powels, wrote an unconscionable
quantity of nonsense; but hear, giii.le reader, how much
better he expresses this •nntitticnt—
Mr. Shelley's style is to poetry what astrology is to natu-al sei.
ence—a passionate dream, a straining order impneAbilitics, a record
of food conjectures, a confused embodying of vague abstractions—
t
a fever of the soul, thirsting and craving afier what it cannot have,
indulging its love of power and tovelty at the expense of truth and
nature, associating ideas by con:lark...and wasting great powers by
their applietaion to unattainable ejects."
And then we have a description of Mr. Shelley's person,
in which those who understand the Reviewer assure us
that he wishes to pay a compliment.
" Mr. Shelley was a remarkable man. His person *as a type and
shadow of his genius. 11 is complexion, fair. golden. freckled,
seemed transparent with an inward light, and leis spirit within him
..So divinely wrought.
That you nrghtelmost say his body thought'
fie reminded those who saw him of some of Ovid', fables. His
form, graceful and slender,drooped likes flower in the breeze. But ke
was crushed beneath the weight of thought which be aspired to bear.
and was withered in the lightning-glare of a ruthless philosophy !
HArrenisrook the nature of his own bookie, and fasiingspalhe fowl,'
of the vt.iley, by which the sky,lark makes Its bed, and the
bee murmur', for the proud cedar or Lie mountain pine, in which
the eagle builds its eyry, • and ,!allies with the wind, and amens
the sun:—lle wished to make cf idle verse and bike prose the
frame-work of the universe, and to bind all passible existence ia
the visionary chain of intellectual beauty—
• More subtle web Arachne cannot spin,
Nor the lire nets, which aft we woven roe
Of scorched dew, do rot in th' air more lightly fica."
Perhaps some baking sense of t& own deficiencies in tks lofty walk
which he attempted. Irritate] his impatience and his desires t and
, urged him on, with winged hopes, to atone for past. failures, by
muse arduous efforts, and more unavailing struggles.'
The whole paper is written in the same strain, and if it
is not rank nonsense, it must be fine writing; for, as
Ilucllie says of Pisto/, it ••uses as prase worts as any one
would wish to hear;" and as writing is only a collection of
, words, it follows, of ciurse, that fine writing must of De-
-1 cessity be a collection of fine words.

MORJL INFLI'ENCE OF CIIRISTLJNITY.

A FRAGMENT.

U- -•
NEW STEAM SUGAR-BOILER.

Few men suspect, perhaps no man comprehends, the ex-
tent of the scpi•ort given by religion to every virtue. No
man, perhaps, is aware, how much our moral and social
sentiments are fed from this fountain ; bow powerless
conscience would become without the belief of a Cod ; how
palsied would be human benevolence, were thctc nut the
sense of a higher benevolence to quicken and sustain it ;
how suddenly the %lade social fabric would quake, and.
with a fearful crash, sir.k into hopeless ruin, were the
ideas of a Supreme Being, of accountableness, and of a
future life, to be utterly etaseel from every mind. Once
let men thoroughly believe that they are the work and
sport of chance • that no superior intelligence concerns it-
self in human kairs; that all their improvements perish
for ever at death ; that the weak have no guardian, and
the poor no avenger ; that an oath is unheard in heaven ;
that secret crimes have no witness but the perpetrator :
LI that human existence has no purpose, and human virtue
no unfailing friend ; that this brief life is every thing to
' us, and death is total, everlasting extinction ; once let men
thoroughly abandon religion, and who can conceive or de-
scribe the extent of the desolation which would follow ?
We hope, perhaps. that human laws and natural sympa-
thy weak' hold society together. As reasonably might
we believe that were the sun quenched in the heavers, our
torches could illuminate, and our fires quicken and fin ti-
lize the creation. What is there in human nature to
awaken respc•et and tenderness, if man is the unprotected
insect of the day? And what is he n ore if Atheism be
true ? Erase all thoughts and fear of Cod from a commu-
nity, and selfishness and sensuality would absorb the whole
man. Appetite, knowing no restraint, and poverty and
suffl-ring having no solace or hope, would trample in scorn
on the restraints cf human laws. Virtue, duty, and prin-
ciple, would be mocked ant! spurned as unmeaning sounds.
A sordid self-interest would supplant every other feeling ;
and man would become, in fact, what the theory of Athe-
ism declares him to be--a companion for brute&

Yesterday forenoon an experiment was made, In pre-
esiatot several Gentlemen connected with the West India
Ca:otiies, on Mr. Smith's patent boiler, which has been
employ.d so successfully in Lancashire in the manufacture
et salt, in mincing a solution of sugar, of the same
streactb as the juice of the sugar cane, to a consistency suf
titiertl coneer.trated toform sugar. The principle of the
I,:iler is, that of giving any required degree of graduated
ten by means of compressed steam, which has the ad.
traai;e of never burning any material submitted to its
assn, and which has long bcen a desideratum in the
rti. It was feared that from the high temperature re.
nil, for the purpose of crystalizing sugar, this boiler
r 4'l not be applied to that object, but the result of the
uNrimoit has been most triumphant in its favour. The
nraents were as follow :

A Captain of an English vessel, arrived at Dublin, from
Jamaica, which he left about the Ist of July. states,
that about a v.-erk previous to his sailing Iturbide, on his;
way to Mexico, pa: sed that ;slant], but did not land there.
If this account is to be relied on, he would arrive iu Mexico
about the second week in July:— !risk Times-
A seizure, made at the ins:ancc of the Exchequer, on
the office of the .John no newsraper, has made much;
noise. That paper had bt en fined on two occasions, for
libels, Fish in hundred pounds, which, it appears, never I
were paid into the Exchequer. A writ was issued, and the
paper, tyres, plisses, &c. were seized on Tuesday last for
the debt. The proprietors of the paper, however, proved that
Merl had paid the money to the proper officer, the Muter'
of the Crown Office, g. H. Lushington, Esq., and they
produced the receipt. The office remained in possession of
s,:e seizing officers fur 21 hours; when, after much expos.;
tulation, they were taken off. There fa something harsh, 1
at least in appearance, in this proceeding, and some strange I
surmises are made as to what became of the money, but
we trust that every thing will be satisfactorily explained.
It is, we ur.dcrstand, the intention of the Jolla hull)
proprietors to bring the transaction before • Court or
Justice.

they found the door had been picklocked, and every drawer and boa

however, missed a considerable booty ; for in the very drawer from
which they took the twb 51. notes (which were in separate pocket-
