LITERATURE.

DUBLIN REVIEW. No. V.

Lonon, 1837.
There are articles in thed
present Number of this
leview which might do credit to the best writer of
the,.a,ze- We allude more especially to those on the
High Church Theory of Dogmatical Authority,"
?in the " Early Italian Scientific Academies," and on
te " Danube and the Black Sea," in each of which—
the former in particular—the subjects are discussed in
t most lucid, temperate, and argumentative manner.
e essay, brief though it be, and slightly as it glances
at the question, On (( Ireland Past and Present," is
°He that cannot he read without pain. It sketches the
condition of a country abounding in the finest com-
mercial and agricultural capabilities ; in fine pasture
; water-courses of the most available nature ;
harbours safe, extensive, numerous, and in which
whole fleets may ride secure ; vet distracted, irnpo-
erished, and reduced by long misgovernment to the
l?west scale of moral and intellectual degrada-
troil. The Reviewer, however, who is of a san-
;4tline turn of mind, states his conviction that the
hour of Iraland's redemption is close at hand. He
',ees the Bow of Promise hung out in her sky, though
e hints an apprehension that he will .be never
nfairly prosperous, till her old domestic Legislature is
restored.
Now we entreat him to lay aside this
crotchet, for what is it but a "sick man's dream ?"
" The desire of a separate Legislature," he observes,
" is silently and every day more and more gathering
strength deep within Irish bosoms. The day of open
declaration seems hurrying on, and when it comes,
those who dream that a Repeal of the Union is a by-
gone wish will be rudely awoke indeed, and astonished
at the force that will then be developed." These are
words--mere words—nothing more. The efforts of a
Liberal Government, which must ere long be crowned
with success, to ameliorate the condition of the
sister country, will effectually do away with the
necessity of Repeal, which, under any circumstances,
could never be carried without convulsing the empire to
Its foundation, and which, therefore, all parties in the
State would combine against with equal energy. To
make her happy, prosperous, and enlightened, Ireland
Ikeds not Repeal, but fair play.- And this she will
most assuredly get, for with the single exception of the
,1,
t,"ries--a faction more noisy than influential—all
:s in favour of her demand for equal justice.
":he " High (.:hurch Theory of Dogmatical Authority "
Is the production of an acute, inquisitive, Catholic Di,
linitY scholar. It :s remarkable for its temperate and
charitable tone, so difrerent from the theological dis-
quisitions of some Protes:.‘nt divines that we could
Inention. The close of this article is characte-
tised by the best spirit of Christianity. " The
course which we shall pursue," says the writer,
!Inkling to the intentions of the Catholic Church,
shall be consistent and persevering. We seek not
the wealth of our Anglican neighbours, nor their esta-
blishment, nor their political power, nor their usurped
Influence. All these things we esteem as dross. But
we covet their brotherhood in the faith, and their par-
ticipation in our security of belief, and their being
bound to us in cords of love, through religious unity.
For these things we will contend unceasingly, and to
the utmost of our power, and God defend the right I"
The elaborate article on the Canadas, takes a
Rend-
-7 Radical view of the question, and states that
unless Ministers entirely abandom their system of
,„
`'oionial policy, they will one day be surprised by
ther apparition of Le Jeurre Canada. " Montemont's
"odou" is an amusing notice of a volume of travels,
either translated, or about to be translated, from the
French. The cursory remarks on the inferiority of
ctir metropolitan architecture are just, however caustic.
:The
" Danube and the Black Sea," is replete with
he
best sort of practical information. The extracts
are well selected, and not more than justice is done to
I‘lr. Quin's late clever volume of travels—one of the
!'everest_if we except Inglis's " Ireland"—that has
'sped from the press for many years. The " Theory
probabilities" is a subtle metaphysical treatise, on
hiWc"t,not understanding the subject, we will not venture
on expatiate. The Number, as a whole, is an excellent
hoe' and if it be rather heavy, it is so, not from ver-
i, seness, but from the weight of sterling thought that
contains.
