THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 1, 1853.

MAGAZINES FOR THE MONTH.

The Dublin University.—This is a very attractive
number of this magaaine ; there are a good many '
interesting subjects treated of. In the " Portrait '
Gallery" a brief memoir is given of Thomas Colley '
Grattan, Esq., in
which the vicissitudes of his '
strange career are recapitulated. In conclusion, it
is observed that he is once more a free man, "as '
free as he was in the days of his boyhood, when,
gun in hand, he walked the moors and hills of his
native Ireland." It is further said that he ought
to do something more for literature. It is true
that since the time he wrote a new style has sprung
up, but still the taste for the old has not passed
away. " But even were it otherwise, he has enough
of original genius to cut out for himself a new path,
and to achieve a new fame. Let him once more take
up his pen, and we dare be sworn many a friendly
critic will welcome him back among the brother-
hood of letters." The clever story of " Sir Jasper
Carew" is continued in two chapters, in which our
hero's fortunes are indeed fallen, for, in the first
one, called " The Gloomiest Passage of all," he is
put into prison, after having been nearly starved ;
and in the second, appropriately termed " The
Streets," he is reduced to the expedient of becom-
ing a crossing sweeper. Here, however, the good
luck which in some exalted stations had been de-
nied to him was his portion, and many a passer-
by was induced to sympathise with " Gentleman
Jack," as he was named by his new associates.
However, we are informed at the last portion of
the story that a change is about to take place, and
that his present place is to be relinquished.
" Some strange disturbances in an old house in
Aungier-street" is a very odd sketch, and the
reader is puzzled to make out at the end
whether he is to credit the apparition or not. Be
it true or false, notwithstanding the lodgers
are obliged to leave the house, which was a great
proof of its being inhabited by strange visitants,
especially as they were living in it rent free !
" The Cow Hunt," although from its appellation it
may appear a light or jocose tale, is on the whole
rather melancholy, but the little incident to which
it owes its name is ludicrous enough. Number 4of
the " Portuguese Olive" describes the career of the
poet "Sade Miranda," whose course it is said
presents nothing of the romantic ; he was only an
amiable and accomplished man of letters, who loved
retirement, and his life was quiet and peaceful,
" clouded only at its close." The writer of this
paper expresses his opinion that Miranda received
higher honours than men of greater genius, his
talents being neither sublime nor brilliantly origi-
nal, but that his private excellence of character
was of great service to him ; besides, he flourished
at a time when Spanish and Portuguese poetry
were in infancy. " A Second Flight, or a Visit
to Hobby Land" carries on the satirical sketch com-
menced last month, in which all the .ibsurdities of
the day are shown forth. In the present division
the Peace Congress is met with. " A Peep at the
Dramatic Gallery of the Garrick Club" contains an
account of the way in which that valuable collec-
tion was formed. It was originally arranged by
the late Mr. Matthews. When he was compelled
by circumstances to part with them they were pur-
chased by the Garrick Club. The number amounts
o three hundred and eighty-eight, the cost origi-
nally approached to 5,0001., and a short notice is
given of the subjects found in the gallery, which is
interesting. In " Fireside Fancies" some agreea-
ble poems are found. The most meritorious is that
entitled " The Olden Time," in which the metre
is flowing, and the ideas gracefully expressed
My blessing rest upon thee, thou merry olden time,
When the fairies were in fashion, and the world was in its
prime •
Every ruin had its goblin, every green rath had its fay,
Till the light of Science chased them from their ancient
haunts away.

has yet gone, has been simple and straightforward ;"
and, subsequently, that " the Aberdeen policy,
reviled as it has been, is the only just and true
one." This writer's logic is somewhat curious. Be-
cause " we cannot drive the Russians out of Poland
—the Austrians out of Cracow, Milan, and Venice
—the Prussians out of Posen" he considers it
useless to prevent the Czar from seizing Turkey,
and defends the aggressor by accusing the aggressed-
If the only claim upon allies was the perfection of
the Government, or the faultlessness of the nation,
this argument would be unanswerable. At present
it is not very clear that, because we have " in-
stances of tyranny and extortion on the part of
Turkish officials," we are to allow a country, equally
celebrated for tyranny, to break the faith of treaties.
Alluding to the downfal of Mahomedanism, he
says—" And what a blessing it would be ! In half
a century we should have open roads to Calcutta,
perhaps to Pekin, and the seeds would be sown for
the revival of the great nations of antiquity"—and
for the downfal of the great nations of the present
day, very probably. Doubtless the projected roads
would be for the march of the Russian armies to
share with us the sovereignty of Hindostan ! This
article, which is the most considerable, is followed by
two tales of German origin, with the appropriate
titles of " The White Lady," and " Pale Sophie."
They are characteristic tales, interesting and me-
lancholy, with a little of the horrible in each.
N. P. Willis occupies the ninth number of
" American Authorship." The author of " The
Unholy Wish " contributes a story of ancient
times, called " The Lady's Well," in which
the heroine, Lady Ellana, the daughter of the
Baroness of Chillingwater (whose name was
ominous), married two brothers, and, when disco-
vered, by the inopportune return of the first from
the Crusades, drowned herself in " The Lady's
Well." Gossip from Florence" is a lively letter,
sketching the " City of Flowers" and its inhabi-
tants. No. 111. of ' Tales of my Dragoman" tells
us the history of " How Muftifiz rose to greatness,"
one of the always amusing oriental tales of brooches
lost, plots found out, viziers beheaded, and injured
innocence promoted. The present number of
" Literary Leaflets" consists of a criticism on Mrs.
Jameson, and does full justice to the popular
author of the " Characteristics of Women.,,
" Chronicles of a Country Town" is continued, and
many events take place in this instalment—an
elopement, an accession of fortune, and a ship-
wreck among them. A singular little ballad, called
" The Elf King's Bride," is translated by the inde-
fatigable Mrs. Bushby from the Danish of Hans
Christian Andersen. " The Epilogue of 1853"
concludes by informing the readers of the New
Monthly that the present number completes the
99th volume.

Ainsworth's Magazine.—" Nicholas Flamel," by
the author of " The Confederates," has reached the
twenty-fifth chapter. Coming sorrows are darkly
foretold. " A Diary Round Mont Blanc" describes
a journey in Switzerland. The curious tale of "Is
he a Doctor ?" is continued. " The Queen's Letter"
finishes tragically, as all tales of the French Revo-
lution are expected to do. " Incidents of a Sea
Voyage," and " Tales of the Backwoods," are inte-
resting to the lovers of adventure, though the conclud-
ing scene of the latter is very painful. There is a
lively paper on the " Choregraphic Art in England."
The verses by J. E. Carpenter are not equal to this
author's former productions, having nothing to
distinguish them from the melodious and compara-
tively meaningless words usually written for music.
" The Seven Ages of Poverty and Crime in the
Nineteenth Century" is a sketch unhappily too
much like reality of the desperate consequences of
neglect and bad education. The number is con-
cluded by " A Strange Story," from the German of
L. Kalisch.

The Gentleman's Magazine and _Historical Re-
view.—There is an interesting account of " Philip
the Second and Antonio Perez " met with here.
The details of their mutual treachery is exceedingly
complicated, but at last the king resolved on the
death of his secretary. The latter had proofs of
the monarch's connivance in murders recently per-
petrated, and cunningly contrived to secrete them,
so that when all was deemed safe by the king he
brought them to light, and thus injured Philip's
reputation considerably. In revenge Philip con-
signed him to the mercies of the Inquisition, but
the nobles and people rescued him and he escaped.
He did not prosper however. He made friends only
to lose them, and at last the favourite of courtly
saloons, and the confidential adviser of sovereigns,
expired in the lowest poverty. On the death of
Philip, ' some years before, " the genius of the
artists of Spain, the wealth of the clergy, and
the resources of the state, were exhausted in the
sumptuous solemnities of his funeral. But, amid the
pomp which veiled the corruption of the tomb,
the blaze of light, the swell of organs, and the
solemn requiem, there arose the thought of the
atrocities of Alba, of the fires of the Inquisition, of
liberty destroyed, of the murder of Escovedo, and
the torture of Perez ; and this man, splendid in
ashes and pompous in the grave,' was interred be-
neath a condemnation which God has pronounced,
and before which all living flesh must tremble."
" Notes on Medieval Art in France" is continued,
and takes in its category Nancy, Chalons, Troyes,
Paris, Beauvais, and Amiens. Of Paris it is said
that there are too many attractive objects to discuss
them all, but Notre Dame is mentioned in terms of
praise. It is remarkable " for its historical remi-
niscences, as well as its architectural features." The
church of St. Eustache is one noticed as being pe-
culiar—" It is neither media3val, nor classic, nor
cirque cento, but characteristic of all three." The
church is being decorated, but it is observed that
there is a tendency in French work to overdo, which
produces a gaudy instead of a rich effect. " Memo-
randa on Mexico" is the first subject in this num-
ber. After some account of the struggles that
country has undergone, it is declared that it will
not prosper till the whole of the provinces shall
have followed the example of Texas, and become
annexed to the Anglo-Saxon race. " Hitherto
Mexico has been favoured by Nature and abused
by man, but the time is at hand when man will
second nature, and inaugurate a new era in ancient
Tenochtitlan."
