POETICAL STYLE-WHAT IS IT?

'cis that in which there's something said
More than the words express;
I.;ke the effect of light and shade
In painting's scenic dress;
Like mien and manner, when we speak,
Like gestures In discourse;
Like blushes on a Lady's cheek,
That give her yeses force !
I.ike eyes, in which the speaker quotes
Ilts subject's illustration—
In which the sours true spirit floats,
In Loveri' conversation;
Like that soft tender look, that 'cheers
And makes the babe to smile;
A, i!s fond Mother wipes its tears,
And kisses k the while!
Sack like is Poetry : and hence,

No ill& nor d?ep
Nor sounding word, obscure of sense,
Should turn it to confusion.
The countenance obscure we view
With doubtful eyes—nor truly
Can we the ilarken'd page read through,
Nor weigh its purport duly!

A TREIIENDOUS COMET.

Previons to the E,piegle's le:ving the Western He-
misphe:e, there wa. visible, among the Constellations
towards the South POle, one of t' e large.t C mets that
has bten Ee e fr"ni the earth for a considefahle petiod,
perhaps since the oi:e of 1682 or 1759 (if, as is sup-
posed, they are the same), it being considerably larger
than the ore that appeared in 1811. It first became
visible in the latter part of September, or beginning of
October, when it was about the brightness of the
P.eiades, at an elevation of s;xteen or eighteen degrees.
and without any considerable tail ; its increasing bright-
ness, and the increasing length of the tail, together with
its retrograde motion among the stars, soon made it
.appear that it was rapidly approaching the earth; and
about the middle of o.tober, at the close of twilight, in
the absence of the Moon, it was the most conspicuous
celestial object above the horizon. On the 15th Octo.
ber, e.irly in the morning, Mr. H. A. Newman, Master
of his Majesty's ship Esdicgle, observed its distance
from two of the most considerable stars in its vicinity,
as follows:

At Simr.ti's Bay, Cape of Good Hope, October 14 fi,
at 15 20 m. observed distance of the comet and the
star Fomalhaut, 26 17. 40 comet E. of star : and the
star Archenar, 23. 50. 40 comet N. of star. At this
time the tail extended about seven degrees from the
nucleus. Again, on the 12th November, at seven P.NI. in
lat. 32. N. and lorri.; 19. 32. W. the distance from the
star Fomalhaut was 29 00. comet W. :cid from the star
Archenar, 43. 37. comet N. of star. At this time the
tail extended fifteen degree, from the nucleus, and the
nucleus itself was very visible to the naked eye, its
apparent diameter being much larger than that of Ju-
piter. The tail had a small curvature, and, as usual,
itrminareJ in faint hairy lays; it se, med to be receding
-nor from the earth. These observations are not car-
; ected for the effect of refraction ; this effect will be tri-
:ling, as the three objects had a considerable elevation
at the time of the observation. The Astronomer Royal
at the Cape of Good Hope was sedulously employed
otrservilg for data to determine the elements of its orbit ;
fr,.or whose accuracy astronomers may hope for every
ut eel* 3.

An Inquest was hell at the White Lion, Hampton i
Vs.ick, on the body of W. Bond, servant to a farmer, of
th.it place, aged 15, who, while unloading a c rt, hay.,
irg neglected to strap the hinder part, it f ii on him, and
crushed him so as to cause his death.—The Jury re-
turned
a verdict of Accidental death.

SCORBUTIC COMPLAINTS.

Stockport, January 24, 1824.
GENTLEMEN—The great cure performed by your
ANUSCORZUTIC Daors upon my wife, deserves to be made as
public as possible, I therefore send you the particulars, in hopes
you will publish them. For upwards of four years, she was a
complete cripple, with an ulcerated sore leg, and although we had
the advice of several respectable Gentlemen of the Faculty, under
one of whom she was more than three years, she derived no be-
nefit whatever. Aboirt twelve months ago, we heard of your Aw-
-1 ISCOREUTIC Daors, and determined to try them. When she com-
menced their use, she was unable to walk across the room, but
before she had finished the first bottle, she could walk with ease,
and by perseverance is now restored to health. Since she was
cured, we have recommended the Drops to several of our neigh-
bours, who were dreadfully afflicted, and they have all received
great benefit. I shall be happy to give further particulars to any
enquirers, and remain your obedient and grateful servant,
ROBERT TIPPER, Smith, Thomas-street, Higher Hillgate.
N.B. The Medicines were purchased from Mr. T. Claye, your
Agent in this town, and he was a witness to the cure.—All letters
to be post paid.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Emilia Bonnet was yesterday brought up, charged by Mr.
Wii-
son, from whom she had hired furnished lodgings, in the neighbour-
hood of the Seven-dials, with having taken away a bolster, a
blanket, a table-cloth, and a couple of napkins.
Mrs. Bonnet, who Is the wife of a foreigner, admitted the taking
away the articles specified ; but alleged that she bad not caked them
to pledge on her own account, but that she had lent them to another
person, who she believed, however, had pawned them. She justi-
fied the so doing in this way 1—" My present lodgings were paid
up to the 24th of the present menth, and I lent these articles on
the principle, that so long as I had paid my rent I was at liberty to
do what I Pleased with the furniture."
_ _

Your principle is quite wrong, said Mr. Res, the sitting• Magi..
true, you had no such powt: as you Imagine.
Mrs. Bonnet is a decent, but simple-looking woman. and ap-
peared perfectly uncumcious of having done anything wrong. She
was remanded, to endeavour, if possible. to recover the things taken
away, and make some arrangement with Mr. Wilson.

MARY-LA-BONNE.

Yesterday a respectable looking man applied to Mr. Gamest,
for a warrant under the following circumstances t—He stated that
soon after nine o'clock, on the evening of Wednesday, he was walk.
ing along the New-road, when he heard the report of ire-arms
some distance behind him, and almost at the same instant, some.
thing whizzed past his ear, which be doubted not was a bullet, in-
tended by some assassin fur his head. He instantly wheeled round
in some amszement,and stood for several minutes, when a man,
whom he never before or since had seen, came tap, in the
direction from which the report proceeded, and with only this pre.
face," D— you, I'll teach you to break the lamps," commenced
belabouring him in the most desperate manner (of which beating
he bore many marks), and after occupying himself several minutes
beating and kicking him, he departed buddealy, leaving him on the
ground nearly senseless. lie had made some inquiries which in.
duced him to hope that he would be enabled to make out this ex-
traordinary assailant.
Mr. Gairran ordered a warrant to be issued at the applicant's
request.

GUILDHALL

Jonathan Thomas Johnson, James Hunter Gray, and Henry Yates.
were brought up on a variety of charges of having obtained goods
on false pretences from several shopkeepers.
Mr. Dunnett, of Cheapside, toy-warehouse, stated, that on Mon-
day week the prisoner Yates came to his house, and ordered a back-
gammon table, a set of chessmen, a set of draftsmen, and two ivory
dice-boxes, value altogether inn 17s. which he directed should be
sent to the Counting-house of Craig' and Yates, 205, Upper Thames.
street, precisely at six o'clock, when his chaise would be ready to
take him to the country, and he would then pay for them. Wit-
ness went at the time appointed and saw Gray and Johnson, who
told him that Mr. Yates had just left the ogee, and he might either
leave the articles or take them, as be pleased. Witness did not
leave them. The next day he sent them by his porter, who, con.
trary to his directions, left them without the money. He sent the
porter for them immediately, but they were taken away in the in.
terim. He went himself to the office and saw Gray, who told him
be did not know where Mr. Yates's country-bonso was, as he was
but Wee days in his employment. On his next visit he found the
parties were all gone, and on examining the Counting-house,
found there was nothing in it but a broken old ledger of fourteen
years old. He also found there was a back door to the house,
through which, he was informed by the landlady, everything that
was brought in for the prisoners was sent away.
Mrs. Lodge, the landlady of the house, stated, that the prisoner
(Yates), took the Counting-house from her about three months
since, in t►e name of Craggs and Yates, and the other two prisoners
appeared to act as his clerks. A great quantity of goods were con-
tinually brought to the house, which were constantly taken away
by the back door. Shopever attended to the prisoners' proceedings,

One or two other cases were gone into, when the Alderman said,
the charges were sufficiently proved to commit all the prisoners ;
and it was finally arranged that the witnesses should attend on Sa-
turday to read over their depositions, to which day the prisoners

TILE KING.

WINDSOR, MARCH MAJESTY :tin continues
at the Royal Lodge in the Great Par k, but the watber
has of late prevented him from taking his accusomed
exercise of driving about the grounds contiguous to the
Lodge, in his pony phaeton. This day, however, is
very favourable, and should it continue so, we doubt
,not the KING will leave the Lodge for a short drive.
His MAJESTY'S presence is expected at theiactie -
before the termination of the week, to meet Mr. JERS'AtY
WTATTILLE, who is to conduct his MAJESTY over that
spacious and majestic edifice. The whole of she im-
provements, which we have at vat ions times noticed;
still continue with the greatest rapidity, and the ensuing
summer will do :much towards the completion of ibit

It was an excellent race till the 19th mile, when Mr. Courtena y
slackened in his speed, and was beat by 200 yards easy at last.
Saturday, a race waa run at New Mills, in Cheshire, for a consi-
derable wager; one Gentleman betting another that be ran fifty
rude with a perm. on his back, weighing- upwards of nine score,
in less time than another should run 100 yards. The race was so
well contested as to be won by only a few inches, by the Gentlerrftn
who carried the weight.

" Domus et platens uxor."—Hoa.
Thy house, and (in else cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
HAPPINESS " the gay tomorrow of the mind" is
insured by marriage ; " the strictest tie of perpetual Friend-
ship." is a gift fromileaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by
which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association,
with celestial intelligence."
Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it
becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, hut
to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the free-
dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the
neglect of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless
instances which, while they excite the commiseration of the be-
holder, should also impress him with the fear of self-reproach.
Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in the
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the na-
tural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized
sufferer more than doubts the chanceof relief. To all such then,
we address ourselves, offering hope, energy, muscular strength,
tacky; nor will our advances appear questionable, sanctioned as
asqussee b 7 the multiplied proofs of 40 years successful experience.
easy cases of married life are sometimes disturbed by the
= Mao or those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath
the female habit is often constitutionally weak—yet it can be
strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional power.
-In avery case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxation
of the generative ectiionty, we pledge our ability to cure speedily,
And with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling ernpyric
from the
position so presumptuously taken up. we deviate from
fcaeralPrinciples with Its; hesitation; and confident in our own
"cUi3Mble Integrity as Members .of the College of Surgeons, we
refer the i'Oireting ccimniunity of either Sex (especially those entering

SONG,
BY MR. MEADOWS.

FROM THE TOROZT ME NOT.

Oh ! Lady, leave thy silken thread,
And flowery tapestrie,
There's living roses on the bush,
And blossoms on the tree;
Stoop where thou wilt, thy careless hand
Some random bud will meet;
Thou cant not tread but thou wilt find
The daisy at thy feet !
'Tis like the birthday of the world,
When Earth was born in bloom;
The light is made of many dyes,
The sir is all perfume;
There's crimson buds, and white and blue—
The very rainbow showirs
Have turn'd to blossoms where they fell,
And sown thu earth with fiowin !
There's fairy tulips in the East,
The Garden of the Sun;
The very streams reflect the hues,
And blossom as they run :
While Morn opes like a crimson rose,
Still wet with pearly show'rs;
Tben, Lady, leave the silken thread
Thou twinest into fiow'rs !

lbw who cannot laugh gracefully, heartily, and by the hour at a

THE PECTORAL .ELlXlR.—Experience, duritiA
a very long period, has incontestibly proved the superior ef.
ficacy of this Medicine, in all Cases of CODS, COUGHS, and
ASTHMATIC AFFECTIONS. By promoting gentle expectora-
tion, it very shortly relieves the Patient of a slight or recent Cold,
and a, few doses are generally sufficient to remote those which an-
lect has rendered snore confirmed and obstinate, and which are ac-
companied with Cough, Spitting of Blood, and other serious symp-
toms. Its peculiar balsamic powers tend to heal soreness, and allay
the irritation of the lungs, in cases of Cough; and in Asthmatic Af-
fections it assists and gives freedom to the Breath.

" Beyond the Blue Mountains we have 41,000 acres
of located land, 83,000 sheep, and about 300. horned
cattle. The inhabitants are necessarily scattered aver
an extent of country 120 miles long by 60 wide. For
the defence of this property and population, we have
three Magistrates, four Constables, and a few soldiers.

altercation, as might he expeve,i, tank place, both par-
ties contending for wnat they Called their rights ; and
some legal discussion hflowing a threatened motion for
adjournment,
The Solicitor fur the Tithe Committee said...l4 Will you, Doctor,
consent to a friendly issue to try the question of nos-enrolment
Dr. Owen—No ; I shall ma, as I have three grounds for my
claim, be such a fool as to give up two of them; I shall go Into
Court upon all three, the Act of the 67th of Henry VIII, the Act
of the 57th, and the Custom.
The Solicitor—Why, If you rely upon any one of those, what be..
cuines of the others ?
A long discussion followed, when the Doctor, upon
being questioned as to whether he would agree to the
conditions on win. h they first went to Pailiamen:,
namely, that he should have a fixed. stipend of E. 1,8201,
per annum, exclusive of his surplice fees? repeated twice
- for the s..tisfaction of his parishioners, E, I will accede
to the 1,8204 if you can settle with the Bishop the sum
to be paid to my successor. ler ill have no:hing to do
with the settlement of the allowance to my successor;
that you must settle with the Bishop, as he wished me
to oppose the Bill as it then stood."
After this declaration, a motion for an adjournment
to that day fortnight was carried, in the hope that the
proposed meeting on the following day, between the
13idtop and the Trustees'of Advowson, would lead to
some satisfactory arrangement, to terminate the lament-
able disputes of this parish.
