TO MR. RICHARD TURNER, ON HIS
REAL JAPAN BLACKING.
AS when the Sun's glad beams diffuse
Resplendent lustre far and near;
So shines your Blacking on my Shoes,
Unsullied, splendid, blight, and clear.
To Sol what planet can compare? •
What morning star shines half so bright?
For influence, heat, and light are there.
Hail, matchless source of boundless light!
The blossom spreads itself to thee,
Parent of trees, of flowers, and fruit;
And in the eve, the western sea
Spontaneous rolls to pay thee suit.
But cease, my Muse, this lofty strain,
•Nor Suns, nor Stars, nor Seas explore,
But to the point revert again,
For merit is reserved in store.
'Ti. merit moves me now to write—
Why should it languish on my tongue?
For merit must be brought to light,
And he to whom it does belong.
Tonnes, thy name on record stands
High on the pinnacle of Fame;
Thy lively genius then demands
Some little tribute to thy name.
The curious Liquid shining Black,
The rare invention of thy mind,
Was not explored in ages back,
Nor even equalled by mankind.
This Blacking when it is applied
To Boots or Shoes, such lustre yields,
That those who use it think with pride
Of Tomma of St. George's Fields.
'Tis he, and he alone, that can
This matchless composition make;
Second his great exertions then,
Render'd so useful, for his sake.
What, though the rich gay garments boast,
And costly preparations use;
Yet is their grandeur greatly lost,
Without this Blacking on their Shoes.
Urge then your footsteps to the place
Of this renowned man's abode;
His habitation you may trace,
By journeying to the London Road.
Ladies are particularly invited to recommend their servants to
use this highly esteemed Liquid Blacking, being sanctioned by the
First Families in the Kingdom.
Gentlemen may observe, that this composition, when used for
their Gig or Carriage Harness,will produce a brilliant, rich, glossy
Black Lustre,and at the same Wile acts as a ?reserver of the Leather.

PROM THE ETIHLE OcONDAT, SEPT. 19.
NAPOLI DI ROM NIA, AUG. •?..
" MANIFESTO OP THE GREEK NATION. •
" The Clergy, the Representatives of the People, the
Civil Officers, and the Military Officers both of the Navy
and Army of the Greek Nation, considering that au-
thorised by the inalienable rights of nationality, and on
thnie of private property, as well as on the ruling prin-
ciples of religion, and the independence of nations, and
seconded by the sentiments implanted in man for the
preservation and safety of his own existence, the Greeks
have taken arms to appeal to the justice of their cause-;
that during the space of more than four years they have
struggled with perseverance against the combined land
and naval forces which have come from Europe, Asia,
and Africa; that in the midst of the most imminent
danger they lia4 sometimes destroyed the very supe-
rior force., of their enemy, and sometimes even entirely
annitiil-ited them ; and that though destitute of the re-
soirees necessary fur this great enterprise, they have at'
length succeeded in sealing their rights at the expense
of the most precious blood of the nation; and in con-
vincing the civilized world what can be effected by a
rople truly resolved to reconquer its independence ;

" Considering that the very results of this unequal
striigglr have only confirmed in the mind of the nation,
the resolution which it has irrevocably adopted, to esta-
blish izs political existence ;
Considering that the agents of some of Me Conti-
tehlal rowers, in spite even of the principles of Christi-
anity which they profess, have not observed conduct
conformable to the rules laid down and established by
tht mselves, and that this illegal conduct has given rise
to a Vebooty of political disputes divergent in their na-
ture and character;

" Considering that some of these agents endeavour, by
the intrigues of emissaries whom they send into the in-
terior of Greece, to excite among the Greeks sentiments
contrary to the spirit and the forms of Government—
sentiments which suit only the intentions and interests of
those agents;
" Considering that the Commanders of the naval
farces of some Governments oppose a number of unjust
persecutions and obstacles to the regular proceedings of
the Greek marine, and to its movements, though con-
formable to the rules of the laws of nations, all in
violation of the neutrality declared by the Sovereigns
at the Congresses of Laybach and Veroni ;
" Considering, with lively grief, that the Christians
themselves arm against the disciples of the Gospel, to
succour the. followers of the KOl4ll, and that a mulsi-
tude of European Officers,contrary to all the principles
of policy, and all sound morality, hasten from distant
countries to instruct the latter, and lead in person the
armies of the baibarians, who come to lay waste, with,
fire and sword, the land which covers the mingled hones
of a Conran and a Samada, of Leonidas and Bozzari, of
Philortmen and Nicetas;
" Considering that the Government of Great Britain,l
happy in guiding a free people, is the only one which
observes a strict neutrality, without deigning to follow
the manifest violation of those distinctions, so contrary
to reasop, which others have practised in Greece, at
Constantinople, and in Egypt ;
" Considering that the indifference of the Biitish
Govc ram: rat is not sufficient to counterbalance the per-
secutions which others exercise again't the Cheeks, and
to whom they daily give a greater extension;
41 Considering, that if Greece has not hitherto been
able to prevent the enterprises of its enemies, or to
take offentive measures, it is riot in consequence of a
dinriuruim of its strength, or of a relaxation of its first
but arises from the reasons above men-
tioned, and because the Government has not yet been
able entirely to prevail over, and to subdue all ps
vat,. pas•ions;

" Considering that, in this extraordinary contest, the
Greeks must either prove victorious. or bury themselves
under the ruins of their country, on account of the de-
plorable consequences which the nature of the contest
has brought with it, and its long duration, two causes
which have rendered this alternative inevitable;

" Considering, lastly, That since the special favour of
PROVIDENCE hai placed the forces of Great Britain so
nc.o us, Greece ought to take advantage of it in time,
and founding its hopes on the justice and humanity
*hich animate that Great Pov er:

" For these reasons, and in the intention of placing
iu salety the sacred rights of the liberty of the State,
and of our political existence, which is sufficiently con-
solidated, the Greek nation prescribes, resolves, decrees,
and approves as follows:

" Art. 1. By virtue of the present Act, it voluntarily places the
sacred deposit of its liberty, its national independence, and its pub
tical existence, under the absolute defence of Great Britain.
" Art. 2. This fundamental Act of the Greek nation shall be ac-
companied by an explanatory Memorial, addressed in duplicate, to
the Government of his Britannic Majesty."
