STANZAS.

I knew not that the world contained
A form so lovely as thine own ;.
Nor deemed that where such beauty reign'd
Humility would fix her throne.
For I had mark'd, where eyes were bright,.
Too well their owners knew their pow'r,
And arm'd them with that dazzling light

The sun emits at noontide's houi:
Too proud to veil a single ray,
Or one effulgent glance surrender,
And glittering with the blaze of day,
And scorning twilight's softer splendour:
I knew not, where the form display'd
Such symmetry and grace as thine,
That intellect would lend its aid,
• And sentiment there raise her shrine.
For I had mark'd where form and face
Mad beauty's varied charms combin'd„
There oft was wanting feeling's trace—,
The beam of soul—the ray of mind.
And vain has been each studied art,
And futile ev'ry cold endeavour—
The light that comes not from the heart
A moment shines—then fades for ever.
But I, at last, have turn'd from those
Whom once I knew, to gaze on thee,—.
On thee, whose cheek's divined glows
Reveal the bosom's purity.
The summer-sky is calm—serene
The summer.ocean mildly fair,
As if some bright—some heavenly scene
In beauty *ere reflected there
And thus, when on thy brow Igaze,
And view the lights around it gleaming,
They seem to be the living rays
From heart, and soul, and spirit beaming.

THE MARKETS,

CORN EXCHANGE, An' n. lb. ,
The Continuance of tine weather, and the little disposition
that the consumers feel to augment their stock, has placed
our market in a complete stagnation, so much so, that not a
tingle sale has been made of any kind of Grain except Oats,
which article supports 31onday's quotation, as it is now fully
known that the ports will not open, and the opinion of the Law
Officers being in favour of the Boston's return. All other
Grain must be quoted the same as last Monday.

CONSISTORV COURT.

On Saturday Dr. Attxotai and Dr. ADAMS were hunt
against the oultnisiibility of a lihel in the case of

WILDAY z. WILDAY,

which is a suit promoted by Mr. Wilday, an officer in the
army, against his wife for a divorce by reason of adultery.—
Dr. I.4USHINOTON and Dr. Donsore were heard in behalf of
Mr. Wilday, and supported the'libel.
It appeared from their statement that Mr. Wilday, who j 4 4
paymaster to a regiment of foot, married Mrs. Wilduyin 1814,
anti lived with her comfortably until towards 1820. They haVe •
one child living. In 1820 he received thoeppoinunent of pay.
master, and was obliged to ehangte, his habitation as frNuently
as the regiment changed it 3 station. Mrs. Wilday did nut
,assent to these removals 'cordially, and many direness
arose between them on that account. In the early part of
1821 the regiment was sent to Ireland, and Mr. Wilday was
obliged to accompany it there. Ile made tarangtmenta ter
taking his wife with hired but the regiment was ordered to
march suddenly -and unexpectedly, and he was obliged to
leave her behind under the care of her mother, lie did not
return until May 1 t , when he plainly perceived that his
wifie* atTections were estranged Prom him, anti be was induced,.'
by some circumstances which excited his stopteion to keep a
sharp eye urn her. Ile could, however_, find nothing Nisi.
riot to COn tin his suspicions, but on the 11th of Septerutier
she eloped front hi* house. She was tracedso ,some. lodgings
at 70, Siounc.street, which were taken in a feigned name and
character, and here a watch was Set upon the house,' with the
view of detecting- her 'paramour, but without success. The
watch was perceived, and the lady took a second flight. She
was again pursued, but the pursuers saw another lady whom
they followed in Mistake for her, and were thrown out. Mrs.
Wilda), was not discovered afterwards, although the *Worts to
trace her were indefatigable, but Mr. Wilday learned that
within four days after her elopement she was delivered of a
child. She hail concealed her pregnancy from him so effec-
tually that he had never discovered it whilst she was with
him. From the time at which it was born it was imposill4to
that he could be .the father, and the birth of this child-wits
now adduced to the Court as the evideoce against the mother .
Or adultery. Great difficulty was met in getting this evidence,
anti tot the birth was with the knowledge of her lirtnF.ty, who
bad endeavoured (the counsel stated) to conceal it. from Mr.
Wilday, be was obliged to threaten them with u Prosecution
for conspiracy, when the evidence of the'fact of the birth waa
given up to him ; but he still hail no knoliedge as to who iVtit:
the adulterer, or where her ,retreat Wes. When she itlitted hint
house, she left a letter, aisigning the rtauOn of her leaving to
some previous disaarreementa and renotturiending her child to
his tare.—The Court ordered the libel to be reformed, as there-
were many facts kleadell, in, it which. might be retrenched with,.
out prejudice to the case of the hutiaaria.--The ease will eetaal
on at the next terra.

?Oa THE SUN.

Eorron—As. an article in your Paper of
-yesterday, on the subject of the Petition from the University
Hof ,Cambridge respecting the West-Indian Slaves, is partly
;founded on misinformation, I hope -you will insert this correc-,
don Of the mis-statements which it contains. It is difficult to'
imagine how any person, at all acquainted with what passed in
the University, can .complain that the Petition was hastily got.
up or brought forwards without sufficient publicity. It might
be enough to reply, that it was carried, after the usual notice,
in a full Senate, without a single dissentient voice. But be
this, it ought to be 4nown that the design of petitioning
on this subject had been 'formed and promulgated fur some
weeks before ; that pains had been taken, to a degree far
beyond what is usual in such cases, to make this intention
generally known; and that the Petition, which was drawn up
at an open Meeting collected for the purpose, was put into the
hands of the Vice-Chancellor two days before the voting.
How the proceeding could have been mere regular or deli-
berate, it seems impossible to point out. Andif, by hinting
the duty of a longer notice to the University AT LARGE, it be
intended to imply the propriety of informing the non-resident
Members of what was contemplated, it must be observed that
there seems to have been no reason for doing in this case what
has never been practised in bringing forwards other Petitions.
I have tho, honour to be,
Your obedient servant,
Cambridge, April 25, 1823.

[BRITISH PRESS.]

No project can be more utterly hopeless than
that of France and the Allied Sovereigns to put_,
down the rising spirit of independence in the
Peninsula. If it were an armed insurrection of
the many to plunder the few, or if it were an
attack made by the idle and desperate of the
lower orders upon the social and wealthy esta-
blishments of the middling and more indus-
trious classes, such revolutionists, if they could
not be quickly enough suppressed from within,
might, without injustice, be quelled from without.
Any neighbouring state would have a right to in-
terfere whose commerce might be interrupted by
their depredations, or whose tranquillity was en.
dangered by their example. But there is nothing
in Spain which bears the most distant resemblance
to this state of things. It ought to be obvious to the
allied Sovereigns—it is obvious enough to their sub-
jects—that the Spanish revolution arises out of that
general spiritof improvement which for the last
half century has actuated the efforts of the whole
Christian world. It is not the fruits of capri-
cious disa&ctien or turbulent disloyalty, but
proceeds from the gradual progress of a more
enlightened system of thinking among the majo-
rity, combined with the more general diffusion of
property,and the extended attachment to rational
and moral freedom. These are feelings not to be
beaten down ; they are the growth of the mind,
their root lies too deep for the scythe of des-
potism to reach. The intellectual as' well as the
commercial intercourse of Europe, has impercep-
tibly altered the condition and the character of the
great mass of its people,and men cannot be governed
like children. hence it Is, that the physical and
moral force of every nation where revolutions are
ripening are enlisted in the cause of political
regeneration, and no Congress of Sovereigns
can put a stop to their progress. It is as foolish
as it is wicked to attempt it. Its success is among
the beneficent designs of that Power whose provi-
, dunce watches over the well-being of man. And,
after all, what is the true aim and object of the
Allied Monarchs, but to subdue by force of arms
a resisialice occasioned by their own inveterate sys-
tem of misgovernment ? It is not expected that
these Sovereigns should worship at the shrine of
freedom. We must not look to human nature fol.
more than we arelikely to find it: but is it be-
cause they do not worship at her throne; that
they are therefore to destroy her temple ? In-

sane infatuation! Irt that holy temple all the
nations of the earth, we hope, will one day sit in
glory, irt spite of the intrigues of Ministers or
the tilibitiou of Kings.

THE THEATRES-.

DRURY•LANE.--After a successful, provincial
trip, Mr. KEAN last night returned to ads
Theatre, in the part of Richard the Third, a
part to which hiss popularity seems to be prin.
cipally attached. He was received with all the
warmth with which his admirers usually greet
him, and there was obviously no want of zeal
on his part to gratify them for their flattering
partiality.
COVENT-GARDEN.--Tlie. Comedy last night
was The Belle's Stratagem a Comedy sup-
ported by such a variety of characters as to
render it very diverting on the whole,and which is
likely to keep its station on the Stage, because
many Actors and Actresses will be ambitious of
appearing in the parts of Doricourt and Miss
'lardy. The dialogue. is light and flimsy._
The assumed madness of Doricourt is borrowed
from that of Valentine, in Love for Love, though
for a different purpose, and the hoyden vulgarity
and ignorance of Letitia Hardy is obviously taken
from The Citizen. Mr. C. KEMULE, whose ad-
mirable performance of Falconhridgc the night
before we had not an opportunity to notice, dis-
played the variety as well as force of his talents
in the part of Doricourt. Mrs. CUATTERLEY
hit eV; as the phrase is, the hoyden part of
Letitia, and was by no means uninteresting in
passages of fashionable gaiety and tenderness.
The rest of the characters were duly supported
by FAWCETT, JONES, ABBOTT, Miss FOOTE, and I
particularly Mrs. Glans, whose Mrs. Racket
was a specimen of admirable spirit and humour.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Mr. DICKINSON presented a Petition from some Clothiers
iu Somersetshire against some clauses in the Warehousing Bill.
After a few words from Sir T. LETHBRIDGE, the petition
was ordered to be printed.

GAME LAWS. •
Lord CRANBORNE (we think) brought up the Report of
the Committee on the Game Laws, which he moved be
printed. He then gave notice of a motion on the subject.
Mr. RICARDO presented a Petition from the Land-
owners and lieritors of the county of Fife, praying for a re-
mission of the Duties on Stones carried coastwise.—Laid on
the table.

Mr. BANG presented Petitions from the parishes of St.
Anne and St. Giles, Middlesex, complaining of the very.
oppressive Duties on coals, and praying for relief.—Laid on
the table.

ROMAN CATHOLIC QUESTION.

General GASCOYNE, seeing the Right Honourable the
Attorney-General for Ireland in the House, wished to ask him
a question. He wished the Right llonourable Gentleman would
have the goodness to inform him whether it was his intention
to renew the measure which the House had 'under consideration
last night. Ile was anxious. to learn something certain as to
the course the Right Hon. Gentleman intended to pursue, as
he was aware the result of the discussion of last night was not
such as to satisfy him (Mr. Plunkett.) At present the
question stood in the nature of an adjourned one.—(Cries of
" No, no:")
Mr. PL UNKETT said, that though the result of last night's
discussion was not what he could have wished, yet certainly
the question was not an adjourned one, and therefore could
not be renewed without a notice. lie had every disposition to
satisfy the Hon. Member's inquiries, but on a question of such
importance he could not be expected to be prepared to state, in
answer to a question thus suddenly put, what his future con-
duct this session with respect to it might be. That would in a
great degree be influenced by the judgment of others. He felt
he had little discretion to exercise upon it. It was confided to
his care by those who felt the. greatest interest in it, and he
stood, therefore, with respect to it, in the nature of a trustee,
whoseactions must be governed by the opinions of those whom
he kne to be the friends of the measure. For his own part,
and fro n what he could yet learn of the opinions of his friends,
1
he would say that he was not prepared to renew the notice this
session.

General GASCOYNE said, the reason why he had troubled
the Right Hon. Gentleman with a question on it was the great
importance of the question itself, and his knowledge that if
it were to,he renewed, many Members would be anxious to be
present.
Another Mg:MIER was about to make some remarks, when
Mr. CALCRA FT rose to order. If the House wished to have
a conversation of this nature proceed, it could so ; but if such
was not the wish of the House, it was better it should rest
here, as the observations of Members on one side must lead
to remarks from those on the other. Here the matter dropped.
The .General Turnpike Act went through a Committee, and
the report was received and agreed to, and ordered to be taken
into further consideration on Monday.
Mr. F. LEWIS said, it was his intention to refer the Bill to
a Committee up stairs.

THE RING V. FIELDER.

Thts defendant had been convicted some time since of keep-
ing a gambling-houge, but the record having been missing, he

LAW INTELLIGENCE-.

COURT OF CHANCERY, JUNE 12. •
COVENT•GARDEN THEATRE.
Mr. HART and other Counsel were heard in continuance and
support of the motion on behalf of Mr. Const, for an injunction
to restrain the other Proprietors from disposing of their inte-
rests, and for the appointment of a receiver; and Mr. HEALD
was heard on the other side.
The LORD CHANCELLOR left the Court at two o'clock, la-
menting that these differences could not be settled elsewhere.
But if it were true that it was not a question for a Court of
Law, and the matter could not be referred to private arbitra-
tion, there was no other place to which they could repair. As
things stood, the account he had to give of his three last morn-
ings was, that he spent them in attending Covent-garden play,
and had not to go through the acts.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 12.
THE KING V. MESSITER.
On the reading of the Judge's Report in this case, which
was a prosecution for bribery, instituted by Sir T. S. Champ-
neys, it appeared that the Jury having found a general verdict
of guilty upon the evidence of one person, whom the Learned
Judge seemed to think was unworthy of credit,
The Counr, without argument, made the rule absolute for
A new trial.

SIR W. SHOUT V. LORD NEWRY.

This was an action upon the warranty of a horse, sold by the
defendant to the plaintiff. The Jury had found for the plaintiff.
—A motion had been made for a new trial, on the ground that
there was no proof of a warranty for soundness, inasmuch as the
only proof was that the defendant bad said the horse was sound,
without pledging himself that it was sound at the time of the
sale. On spewing cause against the rule,
The Coun T were of opinion that it was unnecessary to prove
an express warranty, if the representation at the time of sale
imposed a warranty ; such was this case, and therefore they
discharged the rule.

POETRY.

On the Busr of the late Jon STEWART, the Traniler, owm_
monly styled Walking Stewart, modelled by
JOSEPHUS KENDRICK, Sculptor.

FRIENDS OF PHILOSOPHY, behold the Bust
Of one whose aims, benevolent and just,
Were bent to soften all the ills of life,
And rescue MAN from ignorance and strife.
He travell'd far, where Reason taught the road,
His purpose was to fix a MORAL CODE ;
Not to remark the language, manners, dress,
But what might all instruct, improve, and bles,;.
lie held jhat LIVING THINGS, of every kind,
Should find in Man a sympathizing mind,
Their pleasure to promote, or ease their pain,
And hence himself derive a future gain ;
For if 'tis part of Nature's EARTHLY PLAN,
Through other tribes to pass the clay of man,
By treating kindly all within his sphere,
He may alleviate SENTIENT SUBSTANCE here,
And thus partake, through his transmuting fate,
The good imparted in his Human State.
Such was the system STEWART'S liberal mind
For universal happiness design'd, .
A system provident for all below,
Whate'er may be our future weal or woe ;
A system framed by philanthropic love,
And which Philosophy may well approve.
As language seem'd too scant his thoughts toshew,
New terms he fashion'd in his mental glow ;
Hence those too weak his plan to comprehend,
Deem'd him insane, and ridicul'd its end.
Ills life was still accordant with his aim,
In wealth and poverty he proved the same,
Neither his mind could elevate or tame.
Serene in temper, and in conduct clear,
Consistent, firm, benignant, and sincere.
The Bust displays his calm expressive face,
With vivid spirit, truth, and manly grace.
Ah ! KENDRICK, could'st thou mould as well his mind,
As here his faithful semblance is delin'd,
SCULPT U RE might mend, as well as charm, mankind.
