J: Court of Apollo. j| S' y '*~ J~ j -T CARO UN e. Pij Thomas Campbell 1’ 1! h:cl the I yicintli in blow, I’ il teach my grotto green to be, And sing my true-love, all below The holly bow’r and it yrtie tree. There all his wild-wood scents to bring, The sweet south wind shall wander by. And with the music of his wing, Delight my rustling canopy. Come to my close and clustering bow’r, Thou spirit of a milder clitre, ‘-Vi.slt wit It the dews of fruit and / wer, Os ntain heath and moory Hi) me. ‘* r: Ti all thv rural echoes como, veet comrade of the rosy da';, 1 r altii g the wild-bee’s gentle hum, Or Cuckotv’s plaintire rounde by- Where’er thy morning breath has pia M, Whatever isles of ocean fault'd Come to my blossom-woven shade, Thou waitcl’ruig winU of fairy land- For sure front some enchanted isle, Where heav’n and love their sabbath hold. Where pure and happy spirits smile Os beauty’s fairest, brightest mould. Front some green Eden of the deep, Where pleasure’s sigh alone is heav’d, Where tears of rapture lovers weep, Endeared, undoubting, unde ceiv’d. From someLweet paradise afar, Thv nnffytj/K-Miders. distant, I lost; Where nature lights her leading star* .And love is never,nevtjr v cross’d. Oh gentle gale of Eden bow’rs. If bark thy rosy feet should roam, 1 o revel with the cloudless hours, In nature’s more propitious home. Name to thy lov’d elysian groves, f liar o’er enchanted spirits twine, A fairct form than clientb loves, And let the name be Caroline. From the Pert Folio. Oj thejini Language. Language, as involving so many combinations, is the molt difficult of all inventions; being the initrument of hu man conversation, it is the molt ufeful. Letters, or written language is the next in dignity and use ; being the grand key to know ledge, aits, and sciences. Whether these two are of human, or as fome have lup poled, of divine origin, can., not be ealily afeertained. The com. lex it y of their conQruc tion and it flexion, the variety ol compound, as well as (im p!e ideas which they exprels j the wonderful reach diiplayed in the invention of letters, a bout two dor., nos which, by different ari angeinents, ex preis the whole of human thot which is boundless and infinite ali tend to show both the one and the other to huve been the “full of much forethought and moll profound icilection. f human invention, it ** required tiitie, e.\pe r rience and long investigation to have discovered and im proved them. The firft nations it is fnnpoled, were mute, or pxpreffid theunfeives in dumb (hew: Natural ligus, looks, and gefliculations, mu ft have (Applied the place of words and artificial expression ; till by degrees, finding the tedious nefs and impelfetlion of this mode of mtercourfe, men would of neceflity and by cooi paft, have recourle fit ft to o. ra! or spoken language ; then to figuiesand hieroglyphicks, and Lilly, to letters or written language. These, indeed, mull have; been previous to all other inventions or improvements ; whatever j as without them ; no human communication can > properly take place, no in. firuCtion or information of j nv kind. They muff, therefore j have paved the way not only I to the ufeful and convenient arts, hut to hu-man inteicouiTe m general, polity, commerce, and (ciences of every fort. Upon examining the struc ture of language, we difeover a very great analogy betwixt all thole of remote origin. Nature operates here moftlv in the fame way in all the hu man race. The words of any or iginal language mull be few, as men’s ideas in an early (late are hut few. And thele words and are very much of the metaphorical kind lor the fame realon, to wu, the learnt riels of language. As in this lUte mm’s imagi nations are peculiarly attive, they will natural) in their ex prellions, have recourle to thole external objects, that are dai'y before their eyes 6c strike them molt forcibly. In warm coun tries their wih be frequent a!l c>- cits to heat, in cold, to frolt, lm>w, & hail, m mud to green fields, foltbieezes, and purling Streams. Ifgicatnefs offizeis spoken of, the African wnl allude to j the elephaut, and the Grcenlan- j der to the whale j if beauty is the lubjett, the former, will al lude to the fun, the iatier, moll probably, to the Iplenuour of ice or of {now. ihe Hehiew and Celtick languages arc certainly, both of very remote origin. Ac cordingly their idiom, being unpolilhed and scanty, is high ly figura iveand metaphorical; and poffi-ffes that aiduur and concilenels so peculiar to moll primitive tongue*. The Cel tick, fuppoled older than the Greek, was the ancient lan guage of Gaul, Spam, and the British if lands. The Hebrew, or its dialects, prevail to this day over Arabia, Perlia, and a great part of India, and the northern parts of Africa. The High Dutch and Sola voman aie likewtfe of great antiquity ; though it is ex. tremely difficult to afeertain their origin. Perhapsthey may be deemed a.kin to the Celtick as the Latin to the Greek, with a mixture of Tulcan. Their genius, however, is harfhand rude, though pol. felled of llrength ; their man ner cold and tedious. The Latin and Greek I reckon of nearly the lame an tiquity, the latter perhaps so mew hat older. They are iikewile related in form and idiom, and bear a llrong re semblance to the country in which they were pioduced. Befices their own imruifick & f.ipei lative value, they become of peculiar consequence, as they enter mote or lels iiuo the composition of tnoft Lu rooean tongues. ‘i flialloniy just further ob serve, that, as all original lan guages seem one way or oti.er interwoven or connefited to. gether, it is mod probable that they have sprung from one ft ill more oi igi.ial, the loun tain-head of the left. Perhaps the Hebrew, Chaldaick, or A rahick, bids the latrell lor this | honour ; yet there is no cer tainty that these were either spoken at the building of Ba bel or were only corruptions oi a more genera! one that took place befoie the confulion ol longues, and the consequent dilperfion of mankind. n■ h m-mmrn, j | 1 he Merchant’s and, Planter’s Coffee-H use A Hotel , < N TUP.
