éhange of the time at the words "Then opened wide, the Baron's Hall" is judicous: while it relieves the ear, it height. ens the expression, and elucidates the poet's meaning. A Sonata for the Harp or Piano forte, composed and dedicated to Miss Eliza Maxtom, by Miss Lazely. 4s. This sonata, coming from the pen of a young lady, brings with it a claim to our Indulgence, in which we cannot be so ungallant as not to acquiesce. For science, well-digested ideas, learned transitions, and methodical arrangement we have not looked; but a pleasing ease of conception, and a facile flow of familiar passages we rather expected, and have not been disappointed. In a word, this composition, though it would not pass for the production of a master, is not uncreditable to Miss Lazenby's talents. A Grand Military Piece for the Piano-forte, composed and dedicated to ber Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, by F. Lanza. 35. 6d. The boldness and spirit with which the piece before us is conceived, will not fail to attract the attention of those who are partial to this species of composition. The first part of the movement beginning in A flat is truly elegant, and the cou clusion is strikingly animated. Drown Old Care in Half a Doxen," a muchadmired Glee for Three Voices, composed by the late Thomas Augustine Geary, and inscribed to Mr. John Spray. 15. 6d. In perusing "Drown Qld Care in Half a Dozen," we find so little of what a real musician would write, in his sober senses, that we are tempted to think that the late Mr. Geary had taken his half dozen before he began the composition, and that he had not only drowned Old Care, but also his professional faculties-it is evident, however, that he did not die drunk, since the world is favoured with so curious a Some of the ideas in this glee are re- The melody of this little song is much above the common cast. The passages are tastefully turned, and the expressionis just and forcible. The accompaniment, though too much in the arpeggio style, is elegant and graceful in its effect,and forms no trivial recommendation to the composition. "obn Anderson my Jo,” a Glee for Four Voices, with an Accompaniment for the Piano-forte composed by Dr. Clarke, of Cambridge. 2s. 6d. The melody of this glee is simple, and the parts combine, and sing well. The. accompaniment is easy, and though little more than a mere compression of the score, is calculated to considerably heighen the general effect." The Grand Symphonies, composed by Mrs, Julian Busby, and announced for publication on the 27th of March, will not, we learn, on account of some unforeseen impediments, be ready for de livery till the 24th of the present month. Consequently, the subscription remains open, and names still continue to be received at all the principal music-shops., REPORT OF DISEASES, Under the care of the late senior Physician of the Finsbury Dispensary, from the 20th of February, to the 20th of March, 1809. adapted for the production of catarrhal symptoms, which, where there is an unfortunate predisposition in the frame, not unfrequently lead to tubercles, and terminate in suppuration of the pulni nary organs. Coughs, in general, and amongst children the booping-cough* in particular, constitute a large share in the class of vernal maladies. With cough, pains in some part of the thorax, not unfrequently occur, and never without laying a ground for serious apprehension. A stitch in the side, occasioned in the first instance by a slight cold, is some times found to adhere with a pertinacious and fatal tenacity, in spite of any antagonist efforts, or medicinal applications for its removal. "Hæret lateri lethalis arundo." The arrow cannot be extracted, until the wound it produced has become mortal. Hypochondriasis is never out of season. The mournful magic of a dyspeptic fancy, sheds a darkness over the clearest and the brightest sky. The mind of an hypochondriac remains fixed, in spite of the unwearied revolutions of the carth, and the constant shiftings of nature's external scenery. Through the whole year alike, The dawn is overcast, the morning lowers, versal cause and characteristic. An im potency of the will, an inertness or indolence in the intellectual and active powers, are for the most part the root of the evil. Paradoxical as it may seem, it is in a certain sense true, that we wear out our faculties by not using them; to let them lie by is an unwise and unproductive economy: unless kept in motion, they will inevitably wither and decay. - -Immota tabescunt, Et quæ perpetuo sunt agitata manent. Two cases of epilepsy have been seen Hooping-cough is a disease which, on account of the extreme delicacy and tottering irritability of the us al subjects of its attack, requires more than ordinary care and management. But it would be unnecessary to go over again the plan of treatment, as it is suthiciently simple and is generally understood. by the Reporter, during the list month. Though apparently sudden in its more violent and perfectly established paroxysms, it is far from being that tyger disease which springs without notice upon its prey. "Strictly speaking, whoever has less feeling or voluntary motion than he would have had at any given period, if no noxious power had operated upon his nervous system, may be consi dered as an incipient paralytic." A şimilar remark may be applied to the epileptic, whose condition is associated with, and apt to terminate in, palsy. Transitory numbness of some limb, or muscle, dark spots floating, or fixed before the eye, an occasional dimness of discernment, an indistinctness or confusion of memory, a temporary chaos of the mind, are often experienced, sometimes for years before epilepsy assumes its more frightful and disfiguring character. When, however, the early intimations of its progress are not attended to, and its propensity towards further encroachment carefully, and vigorously resisted, by a correction of diet, or a suitable re gulation of the passions and habits, the destiny of the unhappy subject of this disease, ere long, is likely to be irre trievably fixed by one decisive blow, which, if it cruelly spare for a time, the principle of life, blasts at once, or obscures for ever, all the energies and capacities of intellect. The drivelling survivor of his reason, presents an object truly pitiable and humiliating, an unburied and respiring corpse, a soulless image, a mockery of man! All is fled that was valuable in the interior, it is now only the shell that remains. The empty casket serves merely as a me lancholy memento of the jewel which is once contained. The terrors of the grave are not to be compared to those of mental aberration or desertion. The loss of a mere breathing existence, is a contemptible subject of fear, but the danger of an eclipse, or of a premature and abrupt decline of the understanding, ought to arouse the most vigilant precaution, and justifies the utmost extremity of horror and alarm.

Containing official Papers and authentic Documents. SWEDEN. REVOLUTION has taken place May the higher and lower States of the common weal also join heart and hand to as A the last sert the freedom the country, and thus, es left Gottenburgh, the king was a prisoner, and Count Uglas, Count Fersen, and others of his friends, had been ar rested. The tribunal lately instituted by the King, at Stockholm, for the trial of some of his nobles, has been dissolved. Overtures had also been made to the cabinets of Paris and Peters burgh for the restoration of peace. Proclamation, "A considerable number of soldiers have taken ap arms in order to march to the capital, and relieve our common, now unfortunate and dismembered, native country. As our fellow citizens must be sensible that our views are such as public spirit and honour dictate to virtuous minds, we cannot be mistaken in our implicit confidence, that our brethren in artus, and our unarmed fellow citizens, will not form any incorrect opinion of our sentiments and views: they are merely these, that the states of the realm, and our legislators, shall be at liberty to assemble, and deliberate uncontrouted, on the means of restoring the prosperity of our suffering country. "We have solemnly contracted the engagement to lay at their feet the arms which we have taken up to procure them freedom, We will form a wall around the hall where Swedish legislators hold their deliberations, which no power upon earth shall be able to bear down. "We have solemnly contracted the engagement, to destroy all such as shall still endeavour to prefer foreign connection to the internal welfare and tranquillity of Sweden. Sweden's German dominions are deliver ed up to the enemy, and Finland, the native soil of a noble and gallant people, is lost. "We have solemnly contracted the engagement, that not a single inch more of the Sweedish territory shall be given up to the esemy. *Sweden's trade and mines are ruined and deserted; Sweden's youth are taken from agricultural pursuits, in order to be destroyed by sickness and the sword. The burthens laid on agriculture are such, that they cannot be borne any longer; grinding taxes are exacted without mercy; desolation and misery are spreading wide and far, and threaten universal ruin. We have contracted the solemn engage sment, that the fathers of the country shall enjoy full liberty to restore the welfare and prosperity of the country. by barmony and well concerted efforts, ensure success to our enterprize and views. "May the fathers of the country offer peace and amity to our neighbours, but ac company this offer with the assurance that every Swedish hero will rather be buried un der the ruins of his country than suffer a single inch of Swedish ground to be taken by on eneinies, or transferred to them. "Our ally, Great Britain, shall learn to appreciate and value a nation, which knows how to break its fetters, and rescue liberty from its chains; France shall learn to respect a people, anxious to rival her military prowess; the rulers of Russia and Denmark, incessantly engaged in pursuits tending to promote the prosperity of their people, will not disturb the peace and tranquillity of a nation, which merely desires to live or die independent, We have seen with sorrow the most important concerns of Sweden, managed in a Ranner which was as destitute of any well conceived plan as of success. "Might not the remaining strength of Sweden have been wasted by folly? but if directed by wisdom, may it not be employed for the real benefit of the country? "Such are our wishes for our country, and we shall readily sacrifice our lives to obtain their fulfilment. "It is of the utmost importance for Sweden that every Swede should at length be allowed to return to a peaceful home, as far as it can be done without any disparagement to the honour and independence of Sweden. The frontiers of the kingdom' are for a short time left without defence, on account of our departure from thence; but should the enemy, contrary to his solemn promise, avail himself of our absence to attack them, we shall speedily return, take a severe revenge, and convince him of the difference of a warfare carried on by personal hatred of the rulers, and a war urged by a nation, anxious and determined to assert its independence. "We implicitly confide, that all military Commanders will readily co-operate with us, to secure, by speedy and vigorous exertion, the restoration of our lost prosperity, in the destruction of our foreign foes. To conclude, we venture to express the wish, that our beloved countrymen and fellow-citizens of every rank and description, may suspend their judgment on all further proceedings, until the decision of the states of the realm shall be known. "The Commander of the troops stationed in Weimland.” The |
