MAGAZINE DAY.

BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.
Blackwood this month opens with a review of
Zsehokke's work "On Death Punishment," and of
Captain Maconochie's " Book on the Management of
Transported Criminals." The author, in the very out-
set, admits the difficulty of the subject in the following

terms:—
" Reformatory punishment I Alas, there is as incurable
contradiction in the very Avms i Punishment is pain, is de-
privation, despondency, 'action. But, would you reform,
you must apply kindness, and a measure of prosperity, and a
greater measure still of hope. There is no ifenial influence in
castigation. It may deter from the recommission of the iden-
tical offence it visits, but no conversion, no renewal of the
heart, waits on its hostile presence ; the disposition will remain
thesame, with the addition of all those angry sentiments which
pain endured is sure to generate. No philosopher or divine of
these days would invent a purgatory for the purifying of cor-
rupted souls. No—he would say—your purgatory may be a
place of preparation if you will, but not for heaven. You may
make devils there—nothing better ; he must be already
twice a saint whom the smoke of your torments would not

blacken to a demon.
" We may rest assured of this, that the actual infliction of
the punishment must always be an evil, as well to mind as
body—as well to society at large as to the culprit. If the
threat alone could be constantly effcacieus—if the headlong
obstinacy, the passion, and the obtuseness of men would not
oblige, from time to time, the execution of the penalty, for the
very purpose of sustaining the efficacy .f the threat—all would
be well, and penal laws might be in full harmony with the
best educational institutions, and the highest interests of hu-
manity. But the moment the law, front a threat becomes an
act, and the sentence goes forth, and the torture begins, a
new but unavoidable train of evils encounters us. There is war
implanted in the very boson of society—hatred, and the giving
and the sufferance of pain.. And here, we presume, is to be
found the reason of the proverbially severe laws of Draco,
which, being instituted by a man of virtue and humanity,
were yet said to have been written in blood: he desired that
the threat should be effective, and that thus the evils of pu-
nishment, as well as of crime should be avoided.
" Whatever is to be effected towards the genuine reforma-
tion of the culprit, must be the result, not of the punishment
itself, but of some added ingredient, not of the essence of the
punishment; as when hopes are held out of reward, or part
remission of the penalty, on the practice of industry, and a
continuance of good behaviour."
With regard to the punishment of death, the_ author of
this article is of opinion that it ought to be continued as
the punishment of murder, not for the effect which the
execution of the murderer produces on the depraved and
drunken mob, who assemble to witness it as they would
any other spectacle, but because,,by the impression which
it produces on the mind of every man throughout the
kingdom that if he should, through sudden passion, or
the instigation, of cupidity, be induced to take the life of
a fellow-creature, he shall, after having spent days and
nights in agony and fear, be, eventually, hanged up like
a dog amidst the scoffs of the mob, it presents to
the mind an antagonist idea' most fit to en-
counter the temptation to the crime. With re-
gard to secondary punishment, the writer is not
inclined "to favour those inventive gentlemen who
would devise new punishments or revive old ones." In
his opinion, " a well-regulated prison, where the severity
of the task-work, the nature of the diet, the duration
and the strictness of the confinement, all admit of ap-
portionment to the offence, seems to include all that is
desirable in this matter of punishment."
He sturdily protests against Captain Maconnochie's at-
tempts to enlist the sympathies of his readers in behalf
of the transported convicts, but considers one of the sug-
gestions of the Captain as most valuable, viz., that the
time of imprisonment should be commuted for the quan-
tity of labour done; by this means he considers punish-
ment would be made more effective as a threat, and its moral
effect would be much improved, as it would lead the
c.iiminal to acquire a habit of continuous industry. He
is little disposed to advocate either the silent or the soli-
tary system, but considers it quite sufficient that the la-
bours of a prison should be conducted with stern military
order, so as to make a prisoner feel that obedience
and submission are the only parts he has to act. The
observations in this paper are confessedly fragmentary,
but they are the observations of a writer of strong,
sound, practical, common sense, who has evidently
carefully considered the subject on which he writes.
This article is followed by a third series of specimens
of the Lyrics of Pushkin, the Russian poet. The Lyrics
in the present number are all of them exceedingly
spirited, and some of them elegantly beautiful. They
are exqusitely translated. Russia is happy in having
such a poet, and Pushkin is most happy in having such
a translator. " Marston ; or, the Memoirs of a States-
man," gives us some spirited sketches of Pitt and his
contemporaries, just before the peace of Amiens, at
which period Marston represents himself as having been
a member of Mr. Pitt's cabinet. He is afterwards dis-
patched to St. Petersburgh as British Ambassador at
the Court of the Emperor Paul, and he gives a very vivid
description of the state of feeling of the Russian Court
and nation, which eventuated in the assassination
of the unfortunate maniac. The contempt and
hatred of Christopher North for Cockneys and
CockneYdoml thath long been matter of public
notoriety, and in " A Letter from London by a
Railway Witness," the crutch of " the old man eloquent"
is exercised with terrific vigour on Railroad Committee-
men, stock-jobbers, anddramatic burlesques—" Graciosa
and Percinet" and " Cinderella" being the especial vic-
tims of his wrath. " Priests, Women, and Families," is
an admirable review of Michelet's work, which, as the
reviewer justly observes
It deserves the anxious consideration of all who are in-
terested in the progress of European civilization, and may
teach a valuable lesson to many who may, at first sight, seen
to be far removed from the mischief which it seeks to remedy."
" My College Friends, No. 2. Horace Leicester," is a
graphic sketch of the life of a "rowing" man at Oxford,
and " Zumalacarregui," is an account of the career of
the celebrated Carlist chieftain, founded on his recently
published biography, by his old comrade in arms
Zaratiegui. The history Zumalacarregui furnishes
a moat instructive comment on the Scripture
precept, " Put not your trust in princes."
North concludes this number by another of his delightful
specimens of the British critics. "We invite," he says,
" the people of these realms, to admire with us the
critical genius of Dryden and Pope, displayed in their
matchless satires, Mac Flecknoe and the Dunciad ;"
an invitation that the people of these realms will most
assuredly accept with gratitude.

TAIT'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (FOR ,
AUGUST). No. CXL.
An excellent " One Shilling's" worth. " Priests,
Women, acid Children" is a sprightly notice of M.
Michelet's work of that title. It contains some sound
philosophy, too, together with some fun. They who
imagine the influence of the Jesuits, in the direction
of the education of youth, and the, consciences of the
female laity of their congregations, had better read M.
Michelet's observations on the subject, and the piquant
commentary of Tait. " Memoirs of Lady Hester
Stanhope"—a notice extending through fourteen double
columned pages of the Magazine, in addition to the
four consecutive reviews of the same work; which have
appeared in the Atheneum, one would almost think
would leave little for the general reader to collect from
the three volume; in which Mr. Colburn has published
to the world the memoirs, personal and political, of this
very singular lady. Fur our own parts we must confess
that, notwithstanding all her Ladyship's egregious
vanity, her ridiculously exaggerated estimate of her
own mental powers—of her influence over the imprac-
ticable Emir of the Druses of Mount Lebanon, and the
tar more masculine intellect and dispositions of her
kinsman, Mr. Pitt—we are still amused, at each fresh
perusal of these reminiscences, by some new touches of
original, character and original opinions. But among
all the strange and unsparing revelations of private and
family history which the book contains, we are most
struck with the following announcement of Mr. Pitt, the
gigantic champion of royalty and legitimacy, in a new
character :--
"To be enabled to act as the guardian angel of the
rest of the family, Lady Hester had established herself
with her uncle, Mr. Pitt, who, it appears, was a repub-
lican or Tom Paineite in theory. or in the abstract.' It
was a perilous crisis ; and Lord Stanhope was not out of
danger of arrest as his daughter believed. Were not
Lord Thanet, Ferguson, and some more of them thrown
into gaol ? and I said, 'lf my father has not a prop
somewhere, he will share the same fate ;' and this was
ono of the reasons why I went to lire with Mr. Pitt, Mr.
Pitt used to say, that Tom Paine was quite in the right ;
but then he would add, What am Itodo ? If the
country is overrun with all these men, full of vice and
folly, I cannot exterminate them. It would be very well,
to be sure, if every body had sense enough to act as they
ought ; but, as things are, if I Were to encourage Tom
Paine's opinions, we should have a bloody revolution ;
and, -af-er all, matters would return pretty muck as they
were.' But I always asked, ' What do these men want?
They will destroy what we hays got, without giving us
anything else in its place. Let them give us sornetit jag
good, before they rob us of what they [we ?] have. As
for systems of equality,' every body is not a Tom Paine.
Torn Paine was a clever man, and not one of your
hugger muggsr people, who have one day one set, of
ideas, and another set the next, and never know what
they mean.' lam an aristocrat, and I mike a boast of
it. We shall see what shall come of people's conun-
drums about equality."
Chapters-of "Passages in the History of Knockarow"
continue to evince considerable powers of description,
and a fund of Irish humour. "Servia, the Youngest
Member of the European Family"—the very pleasant
review of Mr. Paton's very agreeable book of that de-
signation ; and the papers on the " Life-of Jean Paul
Richter," and on " The Works of De La Mottee
Fouque," are all calculated to sustain the reputation of
this agreeable miscellany. As to the latter, we do not
think the selection of " heodolf tl:e Icelander," as a
specimen of the great powers of a most inventive no.
velist, as part;cularly happy. The story is full of fine
passages, but it has really much of the weariness and
length of the Icelandic winter it so picturesquely
describes.

genus come, against his Irish colleges scheme, is not half
so damaging as this advocacy of his soi-di,ant friend.
Meanwhile, let all free-traders read, mark, learn, and
inwardly digest" an extract from this slime article.
" And now, before we lay aside the pen, let us say one word
to our agricultural friends—to those among our readers whose
leaning in regard to commerce generally is towards the protec-
tive system, and adverse to what is called free-trade. Whether
it be for right or for wrong, they may rest assured that the
days for protective duties are numbered. Corn-laws, like na-
vigation-laws, and laws against the exportation of machinery,
have received their death-blow; and not all the indignation of
some, and the regrets of more, Rill save them. Nevertheless,
our Tory friends must seek comfort in the refection, that with
Toryism, properly so called, such laws have no connexion.
There was no such thing as a duty on corn imported from
abroad, either before the revolution of 1688, or for many a
year after e ards."
We care not whether the free-trade policy be Tory
policy, or Whig policy, so that it be followed. We ac-
cept the confession, that " the days for protective duties
are numbered," and the monopolists are perfectly wel-
come to all the comfort they can derive from the reflec-
tion," that with Toryism, properly so called, such I.tws
have no connexion." The straw is beginning to move,
and the following passage, from the same article, looks
as if Sir Robert were preparing for a free-trade budget
in 1846 :
" It will be ungenerous, therefore, and unfair, to blame Sir
Robert Peel for returning to the usages of his Tory predeces-
sors—a course which we suspect that neither he, nor any other
Minister of the Crown could, under the new constitution of
1832, very long avoid."
If free trade was the usage of his predecessors, the
sooner the Premier returns to that usage the better.
This is the only political article in Fraser, but it is most
valuable as a revelation of the future policy of
the Ministry on the all-important question of
free-trade. The other papers of this number
are literary, and they fully sustain the high character of
Regina. " Something between the Showers," is a de-
lightful paper, de omnibus rebus et quibusdam aliis, ex-
hibiting a degree of scholarship, of which even Butler
or Burton might have been proud. Some notices
of Lord Robertson's " Leaves for a Journal," is a grace-
ful tribute to the memory of one who, as Sir Morgan
O'Doherty, essentially contributed to raise Regina to
her present eminence. Full justice is done in this article
to the genius and attainments of the great Scotch
lawyer ; and in the article, entitled, " The Late Sir
William Follett," the very best account that has yet ap-
peared, is given of the career of the great English
lawyer. Unfortunately for his future fame, Sir W.
Follett was merely a great lawyer, and as the author
justly observes :
" For the existing generation of lawyers, the name of Follett
will live ; but it is painful to think, that when his contempo-
raries are gone, no records or traces of the man will survive,
either as an author, an advocate, a legislator, or a judge."
We have, in addition to these articles, a spirited
"Biography of Marshal Gaisson," the aide-de-camp of
Gustavus Adolphus—the rough soldier- friend of Cardi-
nal Richelieu, and the honest man, par excellence, of the
corrupt Court of Louis XIII. and Anne of Austria ;_ ar
elaborate review of the " Memoirs of Lady Hester Stan-
hope;" a " Sketch of the Life of Velar-Inez, the great
Spanish painter ;" and various other literary articles of
.at merit.

SPORTING MAGAZINE.
The present number of this magazine fully main-
tains the high character which, its predecessors have ac-
quired. The paper on the " Duties of. Grooms," is ex-
cellent, and should be studied by every gentleman who
keeps a groom, and by every groom who wishes to enter
the service of a gentleman. The illustrations of this
Number, are a portrait of Merry Monarch, the winner of
the Derby, and a drawing of the Emperor's Cup, which
was run for at Ascot.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
GOODWOOD RACES.—YESTERDAY. 1
RACE COURSE,, HALF-PAST FOUR O'CLOCK.
Important as the racing appeared on paper, we are I
constrained to admit that in what has hitherto been re-
cognized to be the great feature of the meeting—the Cup,
it did not reach the standard hitherto accorded it. The
entry was numerically good, and it included a few
horses of considerable repute ; but the defeat of Alice
Hawthorn and Faugh-a-Ballagh at Ascot, and the sub-
sequent withdrawal of the latter, of Golden Rule,
Stomacher, (all in one stable) and the Ironmaster, left it
to so inferior a class of competitors, that the public
having" bled" in support of the seceders, ceased to take
any interest in it, and speculation, except with a few
who were lucky enough to lay against the horses we
have mentioned, was as profitless as it was languid. It
was fortunate, therefore, that the list had other attrac-
tions, and that its general excellence served to com-
pensate for this solitary falling off. It was still more
fortunate for those who attended the races for amuse-
ment only, that additional wild was given to this—the
grand day—by the presence of the King of the Nether-
lands. His Majesty, as announced in a former
report, had accepted of an invitation from the
Duke of Richmond, and had fixed Wednesday evening
for his arrival at Goodwood, with the intention of ho-
nouring his Grace' with his presence over the Cup day.
Accordingly, having left London at two o'clock, at-
tended by M. Boud and M. Dedel, his Majesty reached
Fareham at four o'clock, and posted thence to Good
wood, arriving at ten minutes to seven. His Majesty
was received at the door by the Duke and Duchess of
Richmond, the Earl and Countess of March, and their
noble visitors. Pinner was served in the ball-room at
eight o'clock, the King handing in the Duchess, with
the Duchess of Headfort on his left; the Duke of Rich-
mond opposite, with the Countess of Chesterfield and
Lady Stanley on either side. During the whole of the
evening his Majesty won the hearty good wishes of all
by his kindness, cordiality, and affability of manner,'
joining in several lotteries for the next day's racing,
and, in short, striving to make every one forget he was
a king. His Majesty breakfasted with the Duke and
Duchess of Richmond and their other guests, and after-
wards accompanied them to the course. The racing, in
w!lich his Majesty took great interest, commenced im-
mediately utter, and as our report will show, afforded an
abundance of first-rate sport.
The attraction of the royal visit seemed in some
measure to neutralise the influence of the weather. As
we mentioned in our last, it rained, with scarcely a
moment's cessation, during the whole of the races on
Wednesday ; it became mere heavy as evening ad-
vanced, the wind all the time blowing a gale; the night
was strong, and
,the morning, although it broke more
favourably, was squally, anything, in tine, but inviting.
The assemblage, nevertheless, was numerous, embracing
a brilliant display of fashionable and elegantly dressed
women, nearly all the leading supporters of the turf,
and a numerous accession of the metropolitans. Agree-
ably disappointing the expectations founded on the
earlier indications it turned nut fine, and the running,
which commenced at the usual time, proceeded, up to
the time of closing our parcel, with a strict attention to
time, and to the gratification of all who witnessed it.
