ADDISON, the celebrated English morslift, has declared a well written tragedy, to be the uobleft production of human genius. It is pleasing to an inquificive mind to trace remote effeAs to their original caufea ; and with fetu tinizing ey*c to view the gradations of improvement, through the fuccrfiive age, in any interesting, or valuable art. i he advancement of tragic writers to’ wards the furtheit pinnacle of excellence, became rapid immediately after the intro auction of dialogue by Acfthylus, who has been very juft!y denominated the father of tragedy Among Lngliih wri tings Mikon’s amfon Agoniftes 1 be lieve to be the only one, in which the lytic choruses cf the Grecian Stage are introduced, as a necetTary link in the formation of the piece. Among the Greek writers, Aeschylus is admired for boidnefs, and animation ; Sophocles, for sentiment, and defeription. From the English authors l would leledt DctSor Young, as the moft fuceefsful in .hat species of writing for which Aefchy Ins was famed j and Shakespeare is un doubtedly the fuccefaful rival, even of Sophocles. His unlimited genius dif j daiued the coercion of fixed regulations, (and he pursued in defiance of Ariilotle I and Horace, the immediate dictates of ins prolific fancy In the Er.glifii Shake fpenre, and the Grecian Homer, we have two immortal instances of the powers of .genius. Homers clebrated epics were written before rules v/ere inflituted ( f or the conftruAion of that difficult I Ipecies of poem, and from his production, iin tine, Aristotle deduced, and compiled ; those regulations, which are now confi- Jcrcd as way marks to the poet. Shakcfpear wrote after rules were in llitutcd, but without any regard what ever to their directions. Moft of his productions appear to better advantage, when-perused m the closet, than when ! prcfeirted upon the ttage. They are ge nerally found to violate ail the rules of unity, which Ariilotle, and Horace (who was only his translator) have informed the world, are indispensably requisite for the conilrudtion of a perfedt tragedy. Oiway and Rowe are the molt har- I monious among the tragic writers of Britain ; Young and Lee the moft v<.he •nent, and sublime. The charadters of the two ialt are gentrally found to pof-. (ids passions of the molt direful, and dif yoliuous of the moft immutable kind.— j Otway excites the tendertft sympathy ; . Rowe, zealous in the cause of virtue, delights us with fenument. Young subjects his hero to the influence of lome pred. ruinating passion, as revenge in the ptrioii of Zanga, and ambition in that of Buliris, ana contrives to keep our inter elt excited, until a tunable time for in irodueing the caltrophe. Lee, lofty & impetuous, deserves the fortmaft lank among tragic writers. He writes the lai|gu.i£ e of passion, which is the language ot the heart 5 and that is one of the tint qualities of a dramatic poet. Tlie orphan of Otway is conftru&ed upon the moil Ample balls—lts chief itictdents are in their nature wholly im piohabiejyct the fertile imagination of tilt’ poet, has from tht ii nplcft materials produced a Drama that will survive the fluctuations of opinion, and be admired uy the judicious to the iateft periods cf time, A.

Were we to notice the current reports of the day, we might fay a great deal re lative to the general expectation of a peace with Russia, and of that continued correspondence between our court and that of Berlin, which fome people con nect with the existing, but hitherto very flow and tedious negoeiatiens with En gland.

General Bellegradeis arrived here.— Three tiioufand Auiirians are embarking for the mouth; of the Canaro, to deliver up the forts to the French, with the ar tillciy which was there at the moment ii was occupied by the Ruffians. Jilonittur, June 27, R A OU lA, June -9. Four thousand Moritenegam3, support ed by a corps ot Ruffian troops, entered I the territory of Ragufa. They destroyed ievery thing in the plain of Cagnioli with iiie Sc fivord; it is difficult so form rtnidea •)f their barbarity.

Talleyrand has advised that measure as the only means to extort it from that prince. However, its foccefs is not quite certain, as it is very well known that the eleffor, who has never Aeeti a f’ i'ud to Bonaparte, has gua ded against hi s rapacity, by fending his Lea lure to Berlin. In the fame manner, the Eleftor of Saxony has been summoned to lend fix millious of rix dollars to the French em peror ; and he has also re used the loan, it is apprehended that Rernadotte has been directed to pay a visit to the Grue Gt” alb, who is now at Dresden. The new constitution of the German empire is daily exptdfed at Ratifoon. It is already known that the three Imperial cities of Hamburgh, Lubtck and E-e ----men, will be under the immediate diree. tioc and absolute ccatroulof Bonaparte. Mr. Bouriennc hs3 given notice to our venerable senate, that the politic ii lu perintendance of the French theatre in Hamburgh, belongs to him, in conse quence of orders to that eifelft, that he has received from the fame prince who has sent him as his minister to the circle ot Lower Saxony, VIENNA, Jane 09. We are pofuively allured, that M. D’Oubril’s full powers and ir.ftruftions relate not owly to the affairs of the Rus fion priibners, but that this Minister is authorized to open negociations for con cluding preliminaries of peace —Some days btfore this luinifter’s departure from Vienna, M. Aiiftttten, councellor to the Ruffian legation, set out from this city for Petersburg, with important dispatch es. LONDON, July 23. I.ate on Monday evening, a person landed at Deal from Boulogne, with dis patches from Lord Yarmouth, at Paris ; and early yesterday morning he arrived in town at Mr. Fox's houie in the Stable Yard. A cabinet council was foou after held at Mr. Fox's office, in Downing ftreet, at which the lord Chancellor, Lord Grenville, Vifcouut Siimouth and Hovick, Earls Spencer, Fitzwilliam and Moira, Lords Ellenborougf! and H. Petty, and Mr. Windham, attended. So great was the exigency for tha council, that a mtflaigtr was dilpatched to Lord Sidmouth, at Richmond Park, to require his Lordthip’s attendance. Parliament will be protojued by com- 1 million this day. Reports are in circu lation, but we know not ou what autho rity, that fome aliufiuD will be made, in the speech from the throne, to the recent intercourfc between tan -country and France. j Ac'”'.;r l 9 have b-en receiterl , aft j. naira mad. of a d-f adtub*?

The funds fell upon the intelligence of the peace between Rr.ffia ahd France, it being supposed that that event would have an unfavorable effect upon the dis cussions between this country Sc France. We fhouid have expedted that it would have produced quite a contrary eif- it renders, in our opinion, a peace be tween this country and France, more probable. July 29. Mr Fox, we are lorry to fay, is so very ill, that even the molt ianguine o his Fiends have ceafcd <’o hope for his re covery. It would be abating the pH. lie to difguift the fears that arc cot rtani ed for this able ftatefmau. Stur. July 30. It was confidently Hated ytfter • ‘• that lord Lauderdale was to set off .ilj night, or early this morning for P - li.s lordship haa certainly not left nor do we believe that it is at ail n n templation to fend his lordship to i -*l. The fie kntfs of Mr. Fox has now ; li med so serious an pfprft, that no L , s arc entertained of his being able to np; y to business lor tome time ; and we believe that the right hon, fecrctnry feeling bis inability to attend to the duties or his office, without alffoluteiy endangering his li*e, incompliance with the earn.lt entreaties of his friends, r nd the repeated advice of his medical attendants, has de termined to resign his office until his health ffiail be rettored ; and in tire mtati ttrr.c, wc have renton to believe that lord Lauderdale will fill that important ffation. No intelligence has been received from the Continent this morning. If we are to judge from the rife in the funds the separate peace which has been con cluded between France and Russia, and which wasfigned on the 20th ir.llant, is considered as an event rather favorable to this country than other-wife We can not, we confefs, confider it in that point of view because we know that it was an obj iff which Bonaparte was moffi anxious to obtain. What i fleet A will have upon the negociation pending be tween this country and Franc., we do not ksow, but it certainly does'not at ail appear calculated to induce the French government to he more moderate in their demands ; indeed we are mifinformed if it has not already produced an oppotite tffed. But whatever may be the fact, rninifters do not relax in the flighted de gree in preparation for offcr.five operati ons againlt the enemy ; orders have been issued tor the expedition which has been fitted out at Portsmouth, to fail aa soon as possible. Wejundevftgnd that Lord Rofslyn will set out immediately for Portugal , but whether in a military or diplomatic character we do not know. It is generally under Hood that one of the threats held out by Bonaparte during the pretent negociation, has been, that it Great. Britain would not consent to a peace, he would invade Portugal, and cither annex it to his dominions, or be” flow it on one of his relations.— Sun, Both Lord Lauderdale and Lord H oliand are making pr.parations to set out on a foreign million, it is not true however, as has been this morning re c -ded, that neither of them has yet set off. Lord H. it is generally underffood is to proceed to Madrid—-Lord L. to Funs. Star, Parliament, we underfland, meet about the middle of October ; but it is confi. dent’r expected in the political circles t! at 2 d'liolution will take place in the intervening period.
