Who by its roar on their own shore made Chinamen knock

And that you'll bear him on the Chair in triumph from the
Hustings.

ROYAL ACA DENLY.

(Continued.)
We shall return to the PAINTINGS for a short time before
we filially take our leave of the Royal Academy for the present

year.

The Nativity. R. WESTALL, R. A.
We have often had occasion to notice the versatility of this
Artist in the various provinces of Painting. Every subject
that he treats chews the hand of a powerful master. It is
impossible to recollect the variety and grandeur of his Grecian
Marriage, first in a magnificent Drawing, which he after-
wards extended to an oil Painting, and also his two admirable
works on the sorry of ilantocles. His beautiful Landscapes,
as well as Historical and Poetical Subjects, and also his cor-
rectness and taste in Portrait. Painting, have justly raised his
name to the highest degree of reputation as a general Artist,
and will well account for the avidity with which his works
are collected. Indeed, they are calculated to adorn any col-
lection, whethe; of British or of Foreign Artists. We hare
already noticed-his " Landscape : Cattle and Figures," No.
227, which in truth, simplicity; and beauty, eytals any work
of a similar kind. We can hardly offer a ►setter proof of the
variety of his powers than in this picture of The Nativity..
The work is glowing in some parts, and finely contrasted with
a different light and subdued lone in others. Perhaps the
Virgin Mother, though her countenance Is marked by a hal-.
lowed serenity, blended with a sweet expression of maternal
tenderness, has rather too modern a character. If a slight
alteration in this respect were to take place, we conceive
that the work en general would be more critically pleasing._
Wt; regret to see but two pictures this year from so excellent
an Artist.

,attle of Quatreught on the 16th
of June, was followed up by the more decisive
victory of Waterloo. In like manner has CAR-.

sary of the battle of Quatre Bras), by the sale of

THE WESTMINSTER CANDIDATES.
A Song, to the Tune of " Sit down Neighbour's all."

Ye jolly boys of Westminster attend ye at my calling,
And let us give your Candidates a gentle overhauling;
I do not wean to rub you down with farcical palaver,
But plainly strive to spew the man who best deserves your
fat our.

Yes, yes, yes, come and see who best will suit you,
yes, yes, yea.

With face of brass first 1-lunt appears, the factious miscue

tie is so ready oaths to take, he'll surely turn oath-breaker ;
If he could gain his wicked will, how think you he would
serve ye ?
Church, King, and State, he'd ruin all, and turn ye topsy
turvy.

No, no, no, such a man will never suit you, no, no, no,

Next Cartwright on the Hustings see, the hoary-headed
grumbler,
In politics, as in all else, a marplot and a fumbler;
You might, who best deserv'd your choice, discover by a toss

up,
The first old woman you should meet, as this old drivelling
goesip•

No, no, no, such a gossip will nut suit you, no, no, no

Sir Frank, too, fancies that you are a set of such dull ninnies,
As to restore to him your rights with your own honest guineas;
But ,let him see, my jolly boys, that you have too much
gumption,
To give Frank franking rights, or aid his jacobin presumption.
No, no, no, such a Frank will never suit you, no, no, no.

Less than Sir. Frauds known, but who will not than Francis
' tug less,
Next Douglas', comes, yclept Kinnaird, but no ken of the
Douglass ;
As he partakes the principles of his associate crony,
To him, as wallas Frank, you will in strong iinphatic no, say.
No, no, no, such a Dougloss will not suit you, nu, no, no.

Next Ronal's- puts in his claims, whose speeches long are

spun out,
A modern politician he, whose French blood is not, run out.
He wears a wig all frizzled out, just fit for one so whiggish ;
But, like most Robesmen., this Law Knight for you is much
too riggish.

No, no, no. such a Lawyer will not suit you, no no, no.
