of what he is, he sees at the great annual Guilt
hall ovation, his wife and family led in, in thl
following order :
"At length we reached Guildhall—as I crossed°
beautiful building, lighted splendidly, and filled yid
_
dressed company, and heard the deafening shouts wh,
rent the fane as I entered it, I really was overcome—lre
tired to a private-room, refreshed. my dress, rubbed
my chain, which the damp,hail tat niched, and prepal?.

the roast beef of Old England.' Onward*we weak'
Prince of the blood, of the blood royal of my country,
out my Sally—my own Sally—the Lady ;Mayoress
Lord High Chancellor handed out young Sally—l sa_.,ol

Jenny ; and my wife's mother, Mrs. Snob, was .
by the protection of the Right Hon. the Lord 00,
Justice of the King's Bench. Oh, if my poor father coo'
but have seen that !"
The remaining articles of the number, es}
cially a lively one in verse by the Poet Laure'
entitled " Reprecht, the Robber," are pleaol
and agreeable reading; and the embellishme
which accompanies the work is really of a fire
rate character. It is from one of Wilkie's •
Italian paintings, who seems to have caught 1)
true Italian expression of countenance. 11
engraver is Mr. Rolls. We should not omit
mention, that at the close of the number thee
a long dialogue between divers members ()Oil,
alphabet, on the passing topics of the day, °,
titled " The Monthly Club." It is an imty
tion of Blackwood's Noctes, and wants only °..
wit, spirit, knowledge of the work, and unfaih
ingenuity of that far-famed symposium, to see
der the resemblance perfect.

CHOZAR AND SELA, AND OTHER POEMS
Loxpow, 1829.
This is a little volume of poems, simply

_ of
prettily written ; they are manifestly the prod,
Lions of an author of cultivated taste and sea
able fancy. " The basis of truth," observes iv
Fletcher in his preface. " on which the glee
structure of fiction in the large poem is found
may be seen in Gibbon and Ockley's Histort,
the Saracens." The " Decline and Fall
Gibbon is certainly a capital store-house for
imagination to draw from, and our author:,
shewn much tact in selecting his materials
such a source. The following is a specinls
his versification :

SONNET.
My sullen harp ! no longer from thee springs
The stream of song to quicken life's frail flow!"
The faded few which deck her ruined bowers,
But desert silence isolates thy strings.
Save when the thirsty gale around thee flings
Its sighs lamenting for those faded hours
the tide
When oft it bore away its tuneful showers
ThouOf liquid harmony
like
theot joyousgea-sh sea-shell,
which wings.
Has left, and .all its living tones subside
To a still echo; but o'er that the sea
Again its thrilling waves will freshly roll;
And so from thee may dews of melody
Again distil, to feast my famished soul !
