Clifford , while a youth , emulous of enacting the part of Turpin , and partially putting it in practice in after life . Have not the forty thieves of the Arabian Nights been imitated in real actings , by thieving boys in London streets ? It is more likely that those boys gleaned their ideas from the enactment at the theatre , than
from the book , and there is little doubt that the presentation of Tom and Jerry , was the forerunner and teacher of many similar real scenes . When the time shall come that such things shall be avoided , and better things presented in their room , a corresponding improvement will be remarked in the public . Base actors have represented base things ; the viler human passions have been set forth as merely laughable and ridiculous , but when the ban shall
be removed , higher natures will set themselves up as teachers of the people , whether as amateurs or as paid professors ,, and higher qualities will be taught . There is genius enough to be found ; if ye doubt it , look on the faces which pass along the streets , and after printing them on the retina of your vision , lament with me , that 4 Knowledge , to their eyes her ample page , Rich with the spoils of time , did ne ' er unroll /
Lament with me , thatchili penury , ' or more chilling training , has kept their nobler faculties from being more fully developed . But the time is coming , there is yet a glorious beyond in view ; human wisdom will prevail over human ignorance ; and the progress of refinement and accompanying noble sentiments , will be in a compound ratio . * Its coming yet for a that , When man to man the warld o ' er , Shall brothers be for a' that . ' Junius Redivivus . To be continued .

In sunny beauty ' s self-diffusedjight , That beam'd to shame thiflBeat of Athelwold , She moves before me—Lo ! the spiritual might Of vision is upon me : I behold The bleeding Martyr spur his horse to speed , And the queen smiling at the mother ' s deed ! I ' ve trod the very stair Elfrida trod , And seen the summer-clouds roof fleetingly The towers of her inheritance ! Ay , strode Above the walls where monarchs feasted hig-h , Sweet women sinnM , and dungeon e d victims groan'd , And vassals reveli'd whilst their masters moan'd !
