THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 6, 1935,

port of the private conference at the Loo, he had not
the most distant idea that the 'Northern Powers were
prepared to regard the triumph of Carlism in Spain, as
a preliminary step to the restoration of HENRY V. to
the throne of France. On the contrary, the KING
imagined, in his short-sightedness, that the triumph of
the Carlists in Spain would enable him to keep the
French Republicans in perfect check, while, by form
ing an alliance with one of the'sons of Don CARLOS,
a daughter of France would subsequently be elevated
to- the Spanish, Throne. It was the working of this
project in his MAJEsTv's brain that led to the eulogy
on Don CA alms' honesty, pronounced in the hearing
of Lord ELIoT and Colonel GURwoOD. But the
instant the KING learned that Don CARLOs had
sought the influence of the exiled Bourbons—that
the Great Northern Powers had secretly favoured the
pretensions of HENRY V. to the Throne of France—
, his eyes were opened to the danger of his position,
and he at once resolved, without taxing the Holy Al-
liance with the discovery which he had made, to adopt.
such measures as would effect the speedy downfall
of Don CARLOS. Had not the King- of the FRENCH,
while trusting in the good faith of the Northern
Powers, declared against active intervention, there is
no doubt but that he would now march an army into
Spain sufficient to drive Don CARLOS out of Cata-
lonia in less than a month.

The trial of the prisoners of April still continues.
It is stated that it will be suspended towards the close
of this week, as the health of several of the Peers re-
quires them to spend some time in the country.
Letters from Saragossa announce the assemblage in
the town of Mallen of 17,000 volunteers of Catalonia,
Valencia, and Arragon. These volunteers, under the
command of the Captain-General of Arragon, arc to join
the General-in-Chief of the QUEEN'S army.
The City of Pampcluna is closely blockaded by the
Carlists, who suffer no kind of supplies to be intro-
duced into it. An unfortunate young woman of the
Bastan, who was going to the city to see her family,
was seized by the Carlists, who cut off her ears so
close to the head that she died in consequence of the
mutilation.

The scarcity of fire-wood, charcoal, and fresh pro-
visions, is severely felt at Pampeluna.
The Carlists are divided about the choice of a Com-
mander-in-Chief in the room of ZUNIALACARREGUI.
It is generally credited that this division will have the
effect of considerably weakening the insurgents.

REFUSAL .OF A CHURCH RATE.-Yesterday a
meeting of the parishioners of Bradford was held in the parish
church there, the Vicar in the Chair, for the purpose of laying
on a church-rate ; hut on the motion of Mr. Mc Kay, and Inde-
pendent Dissenter, seconded by Mr. James Bilton, a Quaker,
the meeting was adjourned for twelve months. —Leeds Intel-

Dr. Murray, the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin,
has written a letter, dated the 2d instant, to Lord Melbourne,
to assure his Lordship that, notwithstanding the assertions of
' the Exeter Hall agitators, he does not approve of the doe-
, trines quoted from " Dens's Theology," that he never directed
that work to be published, and that it is not the text-book for
the theological conferences of the Catholic Clergy. Dr. Mur-
ray thanks God that the doctrines of Dens " are now little
more than the record of by-gone intolerance; and he declares
that the imputations of Messrs. M'Ghee, O'Sullivan, and their
clique, are wholly devoid of any foundation in fact."
On Tuesday, the General Synod of Ulster assembled
at their Annual Meeting in the Rev. Dr. Hanna's Meeting-.
house, in this town. The Moderator, the Rev. William
M'Clure, of Derry, opened the meeting by prayer, and after-
wards delivered a most excellent discourse from the 3d chap.
23d v. of Colossians.—The roll of Ministers and Elders was
then called, and the Synod proceeded to the election of a Mo-
derator. Only two candidates, the Rev. J. Barnett and the
Rev. Mr. Johnston, were put in nomination, when the former
was declared elected by a large majority. After some unim-
portant business, the Synod adjourned at half-past two for an
I hour.

LITERATURE.

CO WPER'S POEMS.—VoI. VI.
Saunders and °dep. London. ism.
Of all the republications of standard works with
which the Press is just now so rife, we know none
more likely to command general -attentieu than this.
Its embellishments, eaclt of which. must have cost a
large sum, are of first-rate-excellence but indeed the
whole style of its getting up is so superior, that nothing
short of an immense circulation can repay the enter-
prising publishers for the expenses to which th work
must already have subjected them. The present
volume consists of " Table-talk," " The Progress of
Error, Truth, Expostulation," and the two first books
of that noble poem, " The Task ;" in which the
genius of Cowper is seen to the best advantage. We
have always looked on this last poem as Cowper's
master-piece. It shows more vigour of thought,
more affluence of imagination, more variety of sub-
ject, and ease and skill of treatment, than anything
-else he wrote before, or after it. It has less, too, of
that gloomy tone of almost maudlin despondency,
which is so perceptible in some of his earlier compo-
sitions. But we need not enlarge on this theme, for
the Rev. Mr. Cunningham, in his Essay on the genius
of Cowper, which is prefixed as an introduction to the
present volume, has already said all that can be said
on the subject. He is no undiscriminating eulogist
of Cowper, but discusses his excellencies in a calm,
sagacious, and impartial spirit. The illustrations are
two in number. One is a portrait of the poet, strik
ingly stamped—to a degree that it is painful to eon-
template--with all the marks of melancholy madness ;
the other, a sketch of his .favourite summer-house at
Olney, which forms the foreground of as sweet and
sylvan a landscape, as any described in the imperish-
able pages of the Task.

MILTON'S WORKS, Vol., 11.
• Macrone, London, 1835.
The volume before us contains the six first books of
" Paradise Lost," each of which is. illustrated by
explanatory notes, partly original, and partly selected,
by Sir Egerton Brydges from the criticisms of a whole
host of authors, among the chief of whom we may
mention Addison, Newton, and Richardson. The
pictorial embellishments are engraved from designs
furnished by Turner and Romney. That of Turner,
the " Expulsion from Paradise," has a very striking
appearance, but does not realize the description given
by Milton of the out-posts of Eden, that they
were " with dreadful faces thronged, and fiery
arms." There is nothing awful in Turner's sketch ;
on the contrary, it has quite a cheerful look,
and so far is inconsistent as a Miltonic illustra-
tion. " Milton Dictating to his Daughters," is well
engraved by Edwards, from Romney, who seems to
have entered on his subject with more than usual
earnestness. The countenance of the poet is remark-
able for the calm air of majesty that pervades it, and
is superior to any head we ever saw by Romney.
Altogether the volume is beautifully got up, and de.
serves the most extended patronage.
