And my swain is another Othellq, in shade.
I detest and despise the monotonous white,
And a skin of deep sable is all my delight :
No red or white Rose shall be found in my bower,
As my fancy inclines to a much rarer flower ;
For as black as black pudding is sweet Robin Rose,
Or as black as the ink from his crow-quill that flows,
To blacken of paper the fair virgin reams
With verses dark, dingy, poetical dreams ;
And as each black bantling the poet lets fall,
A blacker oblivion up-swallows them all!

LITERARY NOTICES,

Blackwood's Magazine,

The classical reader will have his attention arrested the mo-
ment he opens Blackwood, by a learned article upon Cicero.
A notice of the London Exhibition will interest the lover of

art. It appears that there are an amazing number of pictures

this year, a great many of them very mediocre, and very few
of first rate quality. We fear for our :Exhibition this year,
as the Art Union will sweep away all the best pictures. The
tale of Caleb Stukely is continued : a new feature takes place
in the hero's life and prospects. This story is excellently
told, and conveys a moral of value, especially to the young.
Dr. Jamieson's Scottish Dictionary comes under notice.
Mr. Simmons has a poem entitled " Lines upon Letters,"
originated by the following passage from Boswell's Life of
Johnson :—" In his last hours, as he opened a note which
his servant brought to him, he said, ' An odd thought strikes
me : we shall have no letters in the grave." The thought
would have been stranger had be said we should have had
letters in that place. " Passages in the Career of El Em-
pecinado are continued. The escape of the Guerilla from the
hands of the French is told with much spirit. These papers
are interesting, and some of the incidents would dramatise
well. Wallack would make a splendid Diez. The subjects
contained in the " World of London" are " Walking the
Hospitals," " Funerals," " The Stomachs of London," " A

THOSE WHO ARE BORN TO BE HANGED WILL NEVER
BE DROWNED.—A curious circumstance, illustrating this
oft-quoted adage, occurred near this town last week. A lad
took a cat to the canal, near the Black Weir, and having tied
a rope round Grimalkin's neck, to the other end of which a
large stone was attached, flung her int,o the water. The cat,
however, managed to get the cord off the stone, and escaped.
Two days afterwards as she was getting through a hedge, the
noose of the cord in which the stone had been secured,

caught in a twig, and the cat became suspended.

RAILWAYS IN ITALY.—The Journal des Chemins de Fer
publishes a letter, addressed by Mr. Brunel to the Royal
Railway Company from Genoa to Piedmont and to the fron-
tiers of Lombardy. In this letter Mr. Brunel summarily
states the result of his surveys, undertaken in order to deter-
mine the best line for the projected road. After the most
minute investigations he has acquired the conviction that the
railway offers no difficulties which his experience cannot

easily conquer. In the distance which sepanites Genoa from
the frontier towards Milan, and which may be evaluated at
120 kilometres (30 French leagues), 25 only run through a
rough and difficult country, and out of this number 15 at
most present serious but not insuperable obstacles. The
remainder of the line will pass over the most favourable
groand. Thus the passage of the Apennines, the name of
which, as Mr. Brunel remarks, sounds so awfully to an Eng-
lish ear, is formidable only to aR inattentive and unskilful
observer, and all the conditions for the inclines and curves
will be accomplished without extraordinary labour.

THREATENED INJURY TO THE QUEEN.—At the Mary-
lebone Police-office on Wednesday, amongst the numerous
charges brought before the sitting magistrate, Mr. Rawlin-
son, by the S division of police, was one preferred against
a young man, who gave his name Wm. Roper, and who, at
the station-house in Phoenix-street, Somerstown, described
himself as a servant living at No. 17, Little Chesterfield-
street, High-street, Marylebone. The charge against him,
as entered upon the police sheet by the inspector, was that
