MISCELLANY.

ESCAPE FROM THE NQUIsITION
Translated yforthe ~ York Daily .aduertiscr. ]
The following interesting story is
from French work entitled a ellis
torical Sketch Of the principal Politi-
cal and Military events produced by
the Revolution in Spain, by M. Louis
Julian" Published in Paris in 1891.
"The Spanish Captain Van-halen, a
native ofCadiz, and particularly known
for his zeal in propagating secret as
sociations, had begun in 1917, to dis
seminate their liberal principles among
the inhabitants of the city of Murcia,
where he was in garrison. His devo-
ton to this subject could not long re-
main unpublished: he was soon denoun-
ced, and conducted to prison. His pa
pers which had been seized, proved that
he had been in corr espondence with
all the secret societies in the kingdom.
Being thus convicted of two crimes at
once, the local authorities considered
the matter too important TO be sub
mitted to their decision, and Van-halen
was transported, under numerous es-
cort, to the prison of Madrid, and COM
mitted to one of the most obscure dun
geons in the inquisition. Preparations
were made for his trial but as he had
declared, from the first moment Of his
arrest, that he would give no answer to
the charges against him, unless in pre-
sence of the King, and this resolution
having been several times reported to
the King, an-halen was at length
brought before him. Not at all affec-
ted by the tortures he had undergone
in his captivity, nor by the almost GER
tain prospect of a speedy and cruel
death, instead Of imploring the favour
of Ferdinand, he devoted the brief in
terview to presenting him with pic
ture of the ruin Jus situation to which
he had been reduced by his ministry.
He declared to him that all Spain was
in fact filled with secret societies; that
prosecutions, Imprisonment, and scat
folds were vainly employed for their
destruction; that no human power
could succeed in attempting to de-
fea, their object; that the persons OF
whom the societies were composed
had never proposed any project against
the life of the King, nor even against
his rank or dignity; that in placing him
on a throne, supported by the laws, and
by the love and confidence OF the peo-
Pile his power would have been raised
to the highest degree Of stability; in

POETRY =.

ADDRESS TO THE MOON, ON HER LATE AP
PRoXIMATIoN TO THE EARTH.
From the Boston Spectator
Is it because thou hast become
Enamour'd of this dirty planet,
That thou hast cen forgot to roam
In thy old track Or hast thou grown
Tir'd of the music the spheres,
Forever Dining in thy ears,
That thou art gaily sailing down
To greet our earth with an embrac:
And with thine own outlandish race
Ofmoon-born giants, exc to man it.
Or art thou coming in q rage
To scourge those over-curous men,
Who late with telcscopick eyes
Have been on lunar expeditions,
And like set of paltry spies
Discovered many lake and glen,
Mountains, canals and turnpike roads,
Colossal temples and abodes
Ofmen; and to their wondering age
Revealed their maners and conditions
Or art thou coming down to give
Old Captain Symmes tour aerial,
That he may look into the hollow
Of this dark globe and ascertain,
What lives the inhabitants do live,
What business and what trades they follow;
Whether they furnish the material
For earthquakes, oryesuvius' crater
Whether like us, it is their nature
To dig for gold or lie for gain
Or art thou rather come to pay
Thy compliments unto the fair
Who long have felt and owned thy sway
Changing their minds oftener;I ween,
Than thou canst change thy face; between
Hope and despair now vascilla.ing,
Complying, scorning, loving, hating
All in breath; thou'dst best beware
Lest all their love should change to scorn
Ere thou again canst fill thy horn.
Come then, whatc'cr thy GRAND be,
Thou wilt be welcomed by the sea,
Whose bosom now cen at the sight
Ofthine approach, swells with delight.

BLUE STOCKING.


It was the fashion in London, about
1881, for ladies to have evening assem-
blies, where they might participate in
conversation with literary and ingc-
NOUS men. These societies acquired
the name of Blue Stocking Clubs-an
appellation which has been applied to
pedantic females ever since. 1t arose
from the custom of Mr.. Stillingfleet,
one of the most eminent members,
wearing Blue Stockings. Such was
the excellence of his conversation, that
his absence was SO great loss, that it
used to be said-we can do nothing
without the Blue Stockings-and thus
the title was gradually established. In
Hannah More's poem Bas Bieu, many
of the most conspicuous members are
mentioned.
