•0! could my Song to Maro's strains aspire,
Or catch the Grecian Bard's heroic fire;
Flexed would I then my noblest efforts raise,
Unhappy Canotnre, to sing thy praise!
They sung of Heroes and of Kings of old,
Whose valiant hearts in Woman's cause were bold.
I sing of her whose heart was wrung with care;
My Country's-guess, driv'n nearly to despair!
Methinks I see thee first on England's shore
With hope enchanted for each bliss in store ;
. Young, beauteous, lovely, innocent, and gay ;
Each Briton's heart with rapture hail'd the day :
Bright shone the Sun,--ah ! 'twas a• cloudless morn,
Such as, in Fancy, halcyon days adorn ;
While ev'ry path was strew'd with fairest flowers,
Too soon, alas ! came dark and gloomy hours ;
Ere yet had pass'd one short one fleeting year,
Thy lovely cheeks bcdew'd with many a tear !
A Husband's caprice drove thee from thy home,
A wldow'd Wife, all friendless and alone !
While the gay tribe that flutter round a Court,
With treach'rous ear indulge the vile report;
-Thou, like to gold, art more refin'd and pure,
By ev'ry ordeal which thou dolt endure.
Tho' foul-Conspiracy still rears its crest,
Tho' rankling Envy will not let thee rest;
An age of chivalry again appears,
Ten million hands would wipe away thy tears !

One gallant Hero 'mong the just and good,
Stood forth thy champion—'twas the worthy Weep:
Let cringing sycophants revile his name,
Through distant ages will it live in fame;
And thou, fair QUEEN, resplendent still must shine,
And reign, in spite of foes, triumphant and divine !
Inner Temple, London, Oct. 21, 1820. S. W.

'Her MAJESTY returned the fUlowing gracious An-
swer to the AddresS from the Inhabitants of Paisley,
presented on Wednesday se nnight :
I have been much gratified and deeply impressed by this
loyal and affectionate Addreu from the Inhabitants of the
Town of Paisley :
" When I know what correct moral feeling prevails amongst
the natives of Sc,nlend in general, and what progress political
knowledge has made among the inhabitants of Paisley in parti-
cular, -I am the less surprised that my afflictions should have so
warmly interested their tender sympathies; that my numerous
indignities and wrongs Should have excited their vivid resent-
ment ; and that the present proceedings against me should have
occasioned their most unqualified reprobation. In those pro-
ceedings all decency has been outraged-all morality set at defi-
ance—all laws superseded—and the principles of the Constitution
as little heeded as if they were the mere visions of a romance.
I am but too well convinced that deep distress has prevail-
ed, and does prevail, amongst -the industrious population of
Paisley, and in other parts of the United Kingdom. In the
midst of this distress I am happy to remark that no disposition
to,ravage and to tumult has been so evident as it would have
been in former periods, under a similar pressure of calamity ;
but the increased diffusion of,political knowledge has produced
an increased obedience to the laws, and an increased repugnance
to any insurrectionary movements. Violence there has been—
but that has not originated with the People t it has been instiga-
ted by the enemies of the people. Secret agents and insidious
emissaries have been busy in creating disloyalty where it did
not exisE, and in producing treason where it would-not other-
wise have been found. We have heard of flagitious miscreants
encouragirg the commission of crimes, in order to profit by
their detectiou. But what blame must attach to the authors of
this treasonable placards, which were recently fabricated in
order to implizate the Queen in a false charge of attempting to
disturb the peace of the community) !! if this atrocious contri-
vance had succeeded, my enemies might have had a momentary
triumph--but it would have been only momentary ! their own
arts would have proved their destruction, and they would have
perished in the hurricane they had occasioned."
The following is the Answer of her MAJESTY to
the Address from the Congregation of Ebenezer
Chapel, Hull:

" I am unfeignedly rbliged to the Congregation of Ebenezer
Chapel, /lull, and other Inhabitants of that town and neighbour-
hood, for this loyal and affectionate Address. It breathes a de-
yeti° ial spirit that well becomes the Christian character. No
Cr of Christianity can approve the inveterate malice of my
enemies; and certainly 'every advocate for a free government
must condemn their unconstitutional and arbitrary proceedings.
Ira all circumstances, I trust, that I shall experience the protect-
ing tenderness of for ALIMIllir, and that I never shall be for-
gotten in the prayers of the worthy Subscribers to this Address."
The independent spirit of the inhabitants of Tavi-
stock haS again displayed itself by their petitioning
the 'rouse Of Commons not to admit the Bill of Pains
and P.enaliies against the QUEEN.
