LILP?V.4BERCROMBY.

Willa I Alexandria lifts her towers on high,
And Nile's proud torrent deluges the plain,
The Muse in sorrow turns her pitying cye,
And weeps to think on many a Hero slain.
Oh ! fatal Honour of destrutlive War,

How dearly purchas'd is thy laurel meet!,
If thousands live to show th' intrenched scar,
And, hopeless of return, if myriads bleed !

Loud actlarnation bids the world rejoice,
And thoughtless millions catch the rapturous call ;
But must we hear unmov'd the Mourner's Noice,
Nor mark the bitter drops that Silent fall ?

How many a cheek with tears shall oft be stain'd,
How many a gallant heart in secret sigh,
TO think that; ere such glory could be gain'd,
Or England boast, Must ABLICROMSY die !

Though Conquest spreads her crimson banners wide,
And shouts of triumph swell the passing gales,
Thy fate deplor'd subdues a Nation'S pride,
And whispers kill that half her purpose fails.

Though France her Flag Invincible resigns,
And owns of British Arms her coward tears,
The downcast Vi4or 'midst his palms repines,
And bathes the bloody standard with his tears.

Undaunted Warrior,, who thy fate could hear, .
Nor curse thitne Wars whictifill thiS world with wbc ?
What eye could look upon thy lourcat bier,
Nor feel some kindred drops from pity flow

Yes, o'er thy Tomb, .in future times, shall bend
The sorrowing Turk : and Arabs sad shall t:Il
•To ages yet unborn, thy Luckless end;
And teach their Sons how,A oats? fell.

Thy patient virtue needs no Muse's lay
To speak its worth:, for• History's faithful page
Thy welMried courage on that glorious day,
Shill spread thro' ev'ty clime in ev'ry .age.
When P P Y'S loft pile to dust shall turn,
- When time shall steal from Pyramids their fame,
When sinks the column, and the sculptued urn,
,Still firm shall stand thine everlasting Name.

• To add one praise to History's brightest theme
My verse aspires not i but it fain would try
To stop with lenient balm the copious stream
• • Which flows in anguish from thy Widow's eye.
Ohl could 'my choice with strong effeetual pow'r
In life restore thee to thy.gallant Son,
'Twould sure bring back th' irrevocable hour,
• And ahuost wish thy noble dads undone. '

Here • on these plins, high-inibow'ring trees,
In life's fair morn.with innocence ;jou play'd ;
Here hop'd once more to catch the cooling breeze, -
Where, blind to future fate, your childhood stray'd.

But vain this hope ; from many an anxious friend,
"tVho watch'cl your I,'!ssening sails from Albion's shore,
And pray'd that Heav'n such virtue might defend,
111-stared youparttd—to return no more f

• But wherefore should we Weep ? thinehoriour'd brow
Angels have bound with never-fading flow'rs,
And snatch'd thee from this world of griefs below,
To rest with tliem in fair celestial bowirs.

ROY AL;ACADEMY.

THE importance of Int Art rs in. Society- is, on
all hands, acknowletted, and therefore we have
thought it a duty to bestow our, attention on, the
great National 'School of thi;Country. The rt.
sure of public' concerns, the momentous changes
which have lately occurred, and the interesting
state of affairs in ali parts of the. World, lel vc, how_
ever, so much engaged, our notice, that we h,i\
not been able to ee,ter so .a:npty as we intended in.
to the labours of British Genius. In our—obs:
vations on the late Exhibition, «e endeavour_
ecl to form an impartial estimate of the merits of
the. several Artists, and we have the, satisfadion
of finding that our remarks have been approved.
But we have been obliged to pass met many works
of c-onsiderable merit, ,and as the Exhibition. has
closed, we also must close our animadversions.
That the Exhibition, as we at first obsenrch ma-
nifested .a general improvement in the Arts, ,„
to be admitted, and if We cannot boast of individuals
equal in excellence to former members of the Aca-
demy, we can at least boast of Artists in every
Province that surpass All we hear of their coutcrnpo.
rants in every other part of Europe.
PAINTING and Seu LP TV RE proceed upon the
best principles ; they look with reverence upon what
ANTIQUITY has bequeathed to them, and they ful
low her steps under the guio.anceof Taste.

'Though we have commented on the works of the
most disc inguished Artists who have submitted their
labours to the. Public this year, yet, we have not
only been obliged to overlook many of their produc-
tions, but also to be wholly silent upon' the works
of many who are well 'entitled to our notice. It is'
our intention, however, to keep an eye von the
progress of Art, and whenever any work of pro.
minent merit appears, it shall not pass without due
attention. We cannot conclude without olmerving,
that it is the duty °revery. Academician, to exert
his talents in support of an institution to which Ile
belongs, and on which the credit of national taste,
in a great degree, depends ; therefore we hope that
those who have not this year shewn a sufficient zeal
for the honour and interest of the Academy,, will
herofter endeavour to atone for their apparent ne.
gligence.
