OLIVER CR OM WEL L,
Edited by HORACE SMITH,Esq.,

Author of " Brambletye House," &c.
" A s'ory of most exciting interest, vigorously written, and
presenting a singularly vivid and strikingpicture of the turbu-
lent times to whiclrs it refers. The distractions of that sad
period, 'when the ties of kindred were so often rent asunder,
the kindliest domestic circles broken up, and their happiness
blighted, are eloquently and touchingly illustrated in the his-
tory of the Ardenno family. The blind devotion of the old
Knight to the cause of the faithless and unhappy Charles,
which leads him to cast off with fearful maledictions his only and
beloved son—the exalted patriotism of his son, wLo perils his
dearest earthly hopes in the struggles for his country's li-
berty—the surpassing loveliness of his affianced bride, who
loves with enduring and unalterable affection, but the con-
summation *f whose fondest hopes is for ever blasted by those
unhappy divisions, are all detailed with singular effect, and ar-
rest the reader's attentions s,,ith an entertaining and pathetic in-
terest. The immortal Milton also is introduced at various
points of the tale with happy skill, and with a genuine appre-
ciation of his lofty but unattiinable aspiration after a true re-
public."—Dublin Evening Post.

LONDON:
THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, IE4I.

The news received yesterday by the overland
mail from India and China is most important to
the Government and people of this country. In
China the triumph of our arms has been most
complete. The presence of a victorious British
fleet in the Yellow Sea soon brought the EN/.
Patton to his senses, as from the commencement
of our quarrel with China we constantly foretold
it would. When circumstances render it impera•
ti,ve upon nations to have recourse to that dreadful
evil, war, to punish injustice or to resent injuries,
humanity requires that it should be made on the
most extensive scale possible, and by bearing down
all chances of resistance, spaie the useless effusion
of innocent blood. But to defeat tie Chinese in
the field is not to realize the main object of the
expedition against China. If the Celestial Go-
