when the carriage appeared on the opposite shore, lan eyes were
flied on the spot ; loot no itioncr bad the steam-boat left the shore
with the carriage on board, than a large gun, which was stationed

boating o' awoke!" This was an interesting moment, and re-
tailed the memorable landing of the Kos at Leith. The fire was
matered.frosa the weed-yard of Mr. BALD,' to the east, and kept
ip all thethied erasing. The boat having now reached the op.
pate shore, \Lord Amami= immediately spranr over the bul-
warks, and welcomed the old Earl and his two daughters, by hear
Lily shaking them by the hands. The horses being taken from the
caffiage,. a great many sturdy fellows pulled it from the boat to the
ludo( the pier, amidst the loud huazas of the multitude, wbeie it
remained till the whole line of procession had passed it, and with
which the Earl was highly delighted, although at times he appeared
to be overcome with the distinguabing honours he was receiving.
The Earl is a fine-looking old man, about eighty-four years of age.

YEAS OW HER *OIL

Yes, she was all Perfection's self meld 'pilot,
Description sinks beneath the cent faint;
her father's talent, and her irandsire's mind,
With every eliarM of loveliness e.ombited ;
• Yet now hi vain the heart of' all she won, -
Briannia's pride of. Rome she shone,
Like some bright meteer in the starry sphere
That bursts with splendour, but to disappear.
Oh ! who can tell, at that sad boor of awe,
The grief, the horror of thy friends who saw
That Irwin divine, that soul•subduing irate,
The Heav'n that beetled from thy expressive face,
Float for a Moment upon Tyber's wave, '
Then sink for ever In a watery grave ?
No hope was left, all human aid was vain,
Not e'en thy relicts could that aid regain ;
Yet on that spot some Angel sore will stray,
To chase each rude uuballow'd foot away ;
'Mute Sorrow there 'shall build herself a shrine.
Aed breathe around the alr some spell divine;
And Pity, bathed in tears, shall Unice near,
And bid her memory live for tier dear !

HASTINGS, SEPTEMBER 14.

A very melancholy catastrophe occurred at Hastings this merning,
soon after eight o'clock, to a fine young man of the name of
Ifichardson 28 years of age. who has been married three or four
months, and is enEaged I t dictate hosinemotnd generally resides in
the Metropolis : he was be hing a little to the westward of the town,
from one of the machines, at low water, the sea in an agitated state,
attended by a friend, who had not quitted the vehicl. ' Mr.
Richardson was seized suddenly with apoplexy, from the rupture"
.of a blood vessel, when he immediately feU down,to rise once, and
then disappear, without making a single effort or struggle for his
own preservation. The body was procured in the space of a quarter
of an hour or twenty minutes, but not till life was completely ex-
tinct, though every meant to restore animation was resorted to.
It may be judicious to notice, that many visitants in making a
tour of the coast, on their first arrival at a watering-place, before
their constitution; may have recovered from the,fatignes of a Ours
ney, and when the blood may be much stimulated by exposure in
an open carriage,or ou horseback, to the powerful rays of the sun
tinting the day, hash proper to plunge the following morning into
the open sea, which oftentimes proves prejudicial, dangerous, and
fatal ; whereas, were they to remain quiet for a short. time (two of
three days),take a warm bath, or cotisulta medical friend previous
tocold bathing, they might derive advantages in point of health,
and thereby avoid accidents. •
