Edinburgh.—The last number of this review contains
som- critii al remarks on Po-nts, written by a mechanic,
commonly calj-d the iShtffield Brazier. The following
extract, or comparison of the outward and visible glories
*1 the Creator, is eminently fervid and beautiful:
“God said, ‘Let there be light!’
Grim darkness felt his might,
And lli'il away;
Then startled seats and mountains Cold
Shone forth, alt bright itt blue and gold;
And cried, ‘ lis_day! 'tis day!’
‘Hail! holy Light,’ exclaimed
The limn.) rou* cloud that flamed
O’i r daisies w bite;
And lo the rose, ill crimson dressed,
Leaned sweetly on the lily's breast,
And, blushing, murmured, ‘Light!’
Then was the sky-lark born;
Th ’it rose the embattled corn;
Then floods of prais,-
Flowed o'er the sunny, bills of noun;
And then, in stillest night, the mooa
Poured tbrlh her pensile lays.
Lo, heaven's bright bow is glad;
Lo, treis-and flowers are clad
In glory, bloont!
And shall the mortal sons of God
Be senseless as the trodden clod,
And darker than the tomb?
No: by the mind of man!
I5v the swart artisan!
By God, our sire!
Our soul have holy light within.
And every tbrm of grief and sin
Shall see ami feel its fire.
L’y earth and hell and leaven,
The shroud of souls is riven!
Mind, mind alone,
Is li-hi and hope and life and power!
Earth s deepest night front this blest hour,
The night oi minds, is gone!’’

Mr Robert M‘Comb having sold out his tavern, the under- i „( 0 ne is laid in its place, all the children of God,
signed hopes ihat the Lniiiii 1 j the morning stars, his elder offspring, chant a song
of jov to the great architect and the glad welcome
A. Jehovah spake
pest,and said to httti.
XYho is it that darkcnelh the counsels of God,
By words without knowledge?
Gird up thy loins like a man;
Where wust thou,
Wh 'it I founded th- earth?
Tell me, if thou knov.est.
Who fixed the measures of it? dost thou know ?
Who stretched the lute upon it?
Wh-r-on stand its deep foundations?
W ho laid the corner stone, thereof,
When ihe morning stars sang in chorus,
And all I he eons of God shouted for joy?
E. We liirget the geology and all the physics of
more modern times, and contemplate these images,
as the ancient poetry of nature resecting the earth.
Like a house, ii has its foundations laid, its dinten-
E. A vein of ironv runs through the whole pas-
stge. God tears the stiack of his enemies, aud
has furnished and secured his vaulted treasury of
hail as the armoury of war. in the clouds too, as
well as in the abyss, every thing breathes of poetry.
A.
W here doth the light divide itself,
WTion tlie east wind siioweth it upon the earth?
Who divided the watercourses of heaven.’
And traced a path for the storms of thunder?
To bring rain upon lands, where no man dweileth.
Upon deserts, w hich no ntan inhabited,
To refresh the wilderness, and barren place.
And cause the tender herb to spring forth;
Who is the father of the rain?
The drop# of the dew, who hath generated them?
From whose womb came forth the ice;
The hoar- frost of heaven, » ho gave it birth?
The waters hide thewselves and become as stone;
The surface of the abyss is confined as in chains.
E. Rich and exquisite pictures, both of tlie
heavens and the earth. Above, the fountains of
light gusli forth, and the east wind scatters il over
the countries of earth, the paternal ruler of the
heavens traces channels in the rain, and marks out
their paths lor the clouds. Beneath *he water be
comes a rock, a.td the waves of ihe sea are chain
eu with ice. Even the rain, tlie dew, and (he hoar
frost, have their lather and their mother. And
then follows* one of the most beautiful and sublime
views of the universe,
A.
Const thou bind together the brilfent pleiades?
Or canst thou loose ihe bands of Orion?
Canst thou bring the stars of the zodiac in their season?
And load lot th the bear with her young?
Knowest thou the laws of the h -ovens above?
Or has-t thou given a dec me to the earth beneath?
Canst thou lift up thy voflRb the clouds?
And enter into them clothed with floods?
Canst thou send the lightnings that they shall go,
And &ay to thee “hare are we?”
Who gave understanding to the flying clouds?
Or intelligence lo the niewleors of the air?
Who by his wisdom hath numbered the drops of rain?
Hath sent down the genii- shower from heaven
And watered the dust that it might unite,
And the clods of the earth cleave together.
E. 1 lie description ol tlie so called inanimate
creation is here ended. But in the description, no
part of creation is without lite. The stars, that
joyously usher in the spring, are bound together in
a sisterly union. Orion (or whatever constellation
Chesil may be) is a man girded lor action, and is
the pioneer of wintei. The constellations of ihe
zodiac rise i i gradual succession like a wreath en
circling the earth. The lather of (lie heavens lets
the hear with her yonng, feed around the noriq
pole; or (in accordance with another mythology
and interpretation) the nightly W’andeier, it mother
of the stars, who is seeking her lost children, the
sta r s that are no longer visible, is the object of his
consolation, (perhaps effected by bringing forth
to her view neiv stars in place of those that were
lost.) One by night observes the bear in its course
as if feeding wish its young on the fields of the skv
or the zodiac, that, like a girdle with its beaut if ul-
ly embroidered figures, encompasses the earth, and
rises gradually to view with the revolving seasons,
and then reflects upon the times, when the nightly
shepherd under an oriental sky, and these iniagee
continual!v before them, and in accordance with
the fancy and feeling that belong to a shepherd’s
lile, ascribed to themanimaleJ being and form—one
who does this, 1 :ay, will perceive at once the
starry bri^iancy and beauty ul this passage, al
though, as to i’-s conciseness and symmetry,
the connection of its parts, it can he’put imperfect
ly translated. It is the same also with the passage
in which God is represented as giving understand
ing to the darkness, to roving clouds, and meteors.
The personifications, both of feeling and of form
in poetry, vanish in another language. Yet all
•hese images, the sending out of the liglitnings,and
their reply, the going forth of God among the
clouds, his numbering of the drops of rain,"their
gentle but copious descent at his command, are in
the style oi the most beautiful descriptive poetry.
* It is still the custom of the Arabs to go oat on plander-
tug excursions before dawn.

Peiv days, in the hospital of pauper lunatics of Salt-
petriere, where she had lived u u pi lied and nn-
knmvn for many years, the famous Theroigne de
Mericourt, (the God less of Reason,) tlie most re
markable of the heroines of the revolution.” This
female (nearly in a state of nudity) was seated upon
a throne bv Foodie and C irnol, in the Champ do
Mars, and hailed alternately as the Goddess of Rea
son and of Liberty.—There was something remmk-
ablein the history of the latter days ol this poor
creature, and her lile is not without its moral.
She, who was taught publicly tnhlaspheme her Cre
ator, and to dishonor her sex, (for site appeared in
public nearly naked,) was for the last twenty years
of miserable life subject to the greatest of human
calamities—the deprivation of reason. She repent
ed severely of her horrible crimes, and Iter few
lucid intervals were filled up by the most heart-ren
ding lamentations. She died at the age of filiy-
seven. This is another awful warning to tbe liv
ing at heists, radicals,and “lireethinking Christians,”
wno are now following in the steps of the French
Revolutionists.
Naohralion of lite Red Sett.—Rail-road across
the Isthmus Suez.--It has been mentioned lliat a
sum of money bad been voted by ihe British par
liament for lite purpose of ascertaining the practi
cability of opening a communication with India, bv
means of steam navigation through the Euphrates
and the Persian Gulf, h is now announced, that
whatever may be tlie result ol tlie survey, s'cam
will be called into operation-in effecting the pas
sage to India, bv at least one channel, viz: that by
the Red Sea. JVIohamed Ali, ihe Pacha of Egypt,
desirous of profiling by ihe determination of the
British government has decided on the construc
tion of a rail-road across the Isthmus of Suez.—
It is supposed that a ship may be transported on
the rail-road, and ihus ihe necessity be avoided of
unlading and relading the cargo. 'Two years are
judged to be .sufficient for the proposed work; mean
while, passengers can pass from the Nile to the
Red Sea without difficulty or danger; so that when
the plan is brought into operation—and it b in
tended that il should without delay—a voyage from
London to Bombay may be made in about two
months. As numbers of persons in England are
desirous of emigrating to Hindostan, they will be
likely to a\ait "themselves of this course, rather
than ihe circuitous one by the Cape of Good Hope.

premier, Lord Melbourne, that the Irish Coercion
Bill w as i > he mi reduced into the lower bouse, de
prived of tlie three first clauses— the objectionable
and tyrannical ones—it gave occasion to a furious
battle lie. ween lories ant! reformers, in wlucb the
foolish Duke of Buckingham ventured to hint tha
the anger of the count iv would follow the perpe
trators of such liberality lo their easy chain and
couches; tear and remorse would beset them; and
even the noble and learned lord on tlie woolsack
would strive in vain to hide his apprehensions in
quotations, and io potations, pcttlc deep, to ibe
health and success of his colleagues.
What would you not have given to have seen
Lord Brougham, at that moment! Sonic dozen
lords sprang to their feet, to ordet. The Chancel
lor waved his hand, gave them a look, and said in
a cool, conversational manner; (for be detests ali
pomp of manner and offices,) “stop! just stop a little;
leave the noble Duke to me.” Then he regarded
ihe ducal ■offender with such a look of contempt as
a duke gives to a dog, .-Dying. “I have met the no
ble duke in all places, but the alehouse, wherein
beseems to have picked up the manners find lan
guage with which, at my expense, hu has just now
indulged your lordships."
Many lords again rose, crying “order, order!”
The Chancellor rejoined sternly, * c Iet lo one
trouble himself; i mean not to notice hint further.”
Now, had Hie chancellor been a duke,aud Bucking
ham a man of merit just discarded by the princely
patron, there could not have been a fetter contrast
of expression, than was afforded by the contempt
of the one and the confusion of the latter.
Divers Karls and Marquises rose aud spoke one
alter the other ostensibly to deprecate any further
indulgence of passions, so destructive of the digni
ty of their house, hut the Lord Chancellor knew
them hotter. He addressed them with a compos
ed contempt, a quiet unconcealed anger, that show
ed his sense of their merits.—“The noble lords,”
he said, “listened patiently and placidly loan attack
upon him, and only bethought them of crying order,
when he was rising in defence. He must inform
them that such interruptions were more disorderly
titan his attempts at defence. But iet them he
confetti; lie did not suppose,” and here lie eyed the
disconcerted offender, “that the noble duke was se
rious in the allusion he had made, for that would
show him to be guilty of falsehood; he look ii lor
granted, tha the merely indulged a jocose spirit, and
lliat being the case, he must listen lo its effusions
in good humor.”
The duke caught at the opportunity of escape.
“True, 1 rue,” lie cried, “I meant nothing, not 1 ting
in the world. 1 orJv quoted Hamlet!”

PATHETIC LETTER.
Tlie following let;er is truly expressive of the
workings ot a virtuous heart, and pottrnro In liv
id colors, ihe affection of a lovely wife lor a cold
and relentless, I f ia( j almost said huahand, hut I
will »ive him a more appropriate name, “monster.”
Who can read ihe following lines, and not hold
•acred, the tender emotions of the lairtst of crea
tion? Well mis’lit (lie Scotch poet say:
“Old nature swears her lovely dears'
Her noblest works she classes, O,
Her ’prentice han’ she tried on mart,
And then she made the lasses, O.”
My dear husband.—1 who had expected your
from , with painful anxiety, who had counted
the slow hours which parted you front me—think
how I was shocked at learning you would return
no more, and that you had settled with a mistress
in a distant state. It was for your sake I lamented.
You went against my earnest entreaties; but it
tvas with a desire, which I thought sincere, to pro
vide a genteel maintenance for our little ones, whom
you said you could not bear to see brought up in
the evils of poverty. I might now lament the dis
appointment in not sharing the riches which I hear
vou have amaasedThul I scorn it. What are riches,
compared to the delight of sincere affection? I de
plore the loss of your love. I deplore the frailty
which has involved you in error, and which will, !
am sure, as such mistaken conduct must, terminate
in misery.
But I mean not to remonstrate. Ii is, alas! too
late. I only write to acquaint you with the health,
and some other circumstances of myself and those
little ones you once loved.
The house you left me in could not he supported
without an expense, which the little sum you left
behind could not well supply. 1 have relinquished
it, and have retired to a little cottage thirty miles
from town. We make no pretensions to elegance,
hut we live in great neatness, and, by strict econo
my, supply our moderate wants wiih as much eom-
forth as our desolate situation will allow. Your
presence, my love, would make the coUage a pal
ace.
Poor Emelv, who lias grown a fine girl, has been
working a pair of ruffles for you, and as she sits
hv my side, often repeats with a sigh, “when will
my dear papa return?” The others are constantly
asking me the same question; and little Henry, as
•non as he began to talk, learned to lisp, in lite first,
•yllables he uttered, “when will papa come home?”
Sweet felknv, lie is now sitting on his stool by mj
side, and, as he sees me drop a lear, asks me why
I weep, lor papa will come home soon. He and
his two brothers are frequently riding on your
walking cane, and take particular delight in it, be
cause it is papa's.
I do assure you, I never open my bps to them on
the cause of your absence. But I cannot prevail
upon myself to bid (hem cease to ask when you will
teiurn, though ihe question frequently extorts a
tear, ivhich I hide in a smile, ami wrings my soul
while I suffer in silence.
I have taught them to mention you in their morn
ing and evening prayers, with the greatest ardour
of affection; nnd lhey always add of themselves a
petition lor your speedy return.
I spend my lime in giving them the little instruc
tion I am able, i cannot afford to place them at
any eminent school, and I do not choose they should
acquire meanness and vulgarity at a low one. As
to English—thev read alternately llrree hours eve-
ty morning, Ihe most celebrated poets and prose
writers, ami they ean write, though not an elegant,
vet a very plain and legible hand.
Do not, my dear, imagine that the employment
is irksome. It affords me sweet consolation in

of additions of communicants amount to 23,441.
Of those who were added by certificate, many were
doubtless merely removed from one particular con
gregation to another. The actual increase ofcom

bv admission to other churches, suspension or

number of our Bishops has 59; whlfe «l>at our

THE BRITISH LORD CHANCELLOR.
We have never endeavored to disguise the un
qualified admiration with which we regard the
cliaracier, (he talents, and tbe public services of
Henry Brougham, Lord Chancellor of England.
Standing emphatically the man of the ;>cop!e,
though with even less of the demagogue than the
aristocrat in Ins composition, the dazzling eminence
which he has attained can be attributed to nothing
but the superiority of his own mighty mind. The
spirit ofthe multitude is awed rather than wooed
into acquiescence with the conclusions of his trans-
rendanl intellect; and, though known throughout
the world as the first man of ihe British realm, he
is admired rather than beloved within the more im
mediate circle of his influence.
A late writer from the British metropolis gives
some interesting particulars of his private history
and political advancemenl. His pungent satire,
his annihilating rebuke, ate already celebrated, c-
ven in this country- The following instance is
given of his retort on a hapless Peer who had dared
to repeat against him tbe foul charge of intemper
ance which lias been hurled against him with such
pertinacious and desperate malignity by the torv
presses of the kingdom.—New Yorker *
Among oilier ridiculous things which the assas
sins of reputation have dared to whisper against
him, is drunkenness! Brougham, the advocate,
who pronounced (or as much as pronounced) a
kingtobea acnundiel, the reviewer who sat in
judgment over the highest and ahstrusest works
in the moral and political sciences; the orator, who
six years ago, in his great speech on tlie state of
Ihe law : opened tlie first bait ery of reason on the
follies of the gloiious uncertainty; the philanthro
pist, who not with sanding his daily and nightly
toil, still finds time to toil d.iilv anti nightly in the
cause of education, so that tlie interior orders of the
community may lie prepared for the enjoyment of
those nalu.a' rights which he is laboring to secure
them; this man. this Brougham, (let it be recorded
and never forgo!ton. for it will keep American ed
itors in confidence,) tic Tory editors li^ve not scru-
pled <o rate drunkard! Until bis graee'ess grace,
the duke orBiickinghain, (the title lias ever con
veyed an idea of something mean and contempti
ble,) dared 'o make use of it in the House of Peers,

falsehood. When :* was announced by Oic new
SIR ROBERT PEEL S ADDRESS
To the Electors of the Borough of Tamicorlh.
Gentlemen—Oa the 26th of November tast
Leing then at Rome, 1 received from his majesty u
summons wholly unforeseen and unexpected by
me, to return to England without delay, for tlie
purpose of assisting his majesty in the formation
ofa new government. ] instantly obey eJ ihe com
mand for my return: and on my arrival 1 did not
hesitate, after an anxious review of tlie position of
public affairs, to place at ibe disposal of my sove
reign any services which I might be thought capa
ble of rendering.
My acceptance of the"first office in I he govern
ment terminates for the present my political con
nexion with you. In seeking the renewal of if,
whenever you shall be called upon to perform the
duty of electing a representative to parliament, I
fed it incumbent upon me to enter into .a declara
tion of my views of public policy as full ond unre
served as I can make it, consistently with my duty
as a minister of the crown.
You are entitled lo this from the nalure of the
trust which I again solicit, from tlie long habits of
friendly intercourse in which we have lived, and
lroci your tried adherence to me in limes ol diffi
culty, when the demonstration of unabated conli-
*R*nee was of peculiar value. I gladly avail mv-
swdl also ot this—a legitimate opportunity of mak
ing a more public appeal—of addressing, through
you to that great and intelligent class of society of
winch you atv a portion, and a fair and unexcep
tionable representative—to that class which is
much less interested in the contentions of party
that inthe maintenance of order and the cause of
good government—that frank exposition ol’ gener
al principles end views which appears to he anx
iously expected, and winch il ought not. to be the
inclination and cdnnol be the interest of a minister
of this country to withhold. Gentlemen, the ar
duous duties in which I am engaged, have been im
posed upon me by no act of mine. Whether they
were an object ol’ambition coveted by rne—wheth
er I regard (he power and distinction they confer
a&iuy sufficient compensation lor ihe heavy sacri
fices they involve—are matters of mete personal
concern, on which I will not waste a word. Tlie
king in a crisis of great difficulty, required ray ser
vices. Tlie question J had to decide was this:
shall I obey tlie rail or shall I shrink from the re-
sponsibilty, alleging as a reason that, 1 consider my
self, in consequence of tire reform bill, as labouring
under a sort of moral disqualification which must
preclude me and ail who think with me both now
and forever, from entering into the official service
oi l be crown? Would it, I ask, be becoming in any
public ntan to act upon such a principle? Was ir
fit that i should assume that either the object or
the effect of the reform bill has been to preclude ali
hope of a successful appeal to the good sense and
calm judgment of the people; and so to fetter the
prerogative of the crown tha! the king has no free
choice among his subjects, but must select bis minis
ters from one section, aud one section only of pub
lic men?
I have taken another course. Lm I have not ta-
keu it without deep and anxious consideration as
to tlie probability that itiy opinions arc so lar in
unison with those of the constituent body of the
united kingdom, as to enable me, and those with
whoml am about to act, and whose sentiments are
in entire concurrence wiih mv own, to establish
such a claim upon public confidence as shall enable
us to conduct with rigor and success the govern
ment of this country.
1 have the firmest conviction that that confidence
cannot be secured by any other course than that of
a frank and explicit declaration of principle; that
vague and unmeaning professions of popular opin
ions may quiet distrust for a time—may influence
thisor that election; but that such professions on us t
ultimately and signally fail, it, being made, they
are not adhered to. or if they are inconsistent with
the honor and character of those who make them.
Now I sav at once that I will not accept power
on the condition of declaring myseil an apostate
from the principles on which I have heretofore act
ed. At the same time, I never will admit that I
have been, either before or alter the reform bill,
the defender of abuses or the enemy of judicious
reforms. I appeal, with confidence, in denial of
the cbajrge, to the active part I took in the great
question of tlie currency—in the consolidation and
amendment of the criminal law.—in the revisal of
the wholse system of trial by jury—to the opinions
I have professed ami ifnifotnily acted on with re
gard toother branches of the jurisprudence of tbe
country;—l apjieal to this as* proof that I have
not been disposed to acquiesce in acknowledged
evils, either from the mere superstitious reverence
lor ancient usages, or from the dread of labor or
responsibility i*i the application of a remedy.
But the reform bill, it is said, constitutes a new
<*ra: arid it is fhe c!uly of a minio'.er fo deejare eg.-
