BEAUTIES _OF . BIRON .. . SO . XL .. " CHUDE HABOtD . " ' " "" The following _staBzaspiature in glowing fcufc truthful colours the national " sport _^ of the Spanish peop le-flie bull-fight . ?« The Spaniards received this sport from , the Moors , among whom it was celebrated with great pomp and splendour : "— . " The Sabbath conies , a day of blessed rest"What hallows it npon this Christian shore 1 Lo lit is sacred to a solemn feast : -. Hiyrk I heard yon not the forest monarch ' s roar t . Crashing th e lance , he snuff ' s the spouting gore Of man and steed _overthrown beneath his horn } The throngVl arena shakes with shouts for more ; ¦ Tells the mad crowd o ' er entrails freshly torn , - 5 or shrinks the female ey _« _» nor ev ' n affects to mourn .
The lists are oped , the spacious area clear'd , Thousands on thousands piled are seated round ; Long ere the first loud trumpet ' s note is heard , _Jfq vacant space for latedvnght is found : Here dons , grandees , hut chiefly dames abound Skill'd in the ogle of a roguish eye , Tet ever well inclined to heal the wound -, _JNone through their cold disdain are doom'd to die , .. As moon-struck bards complain , by Love ' s sad archery . _Hush'd is the din of tongues—on gallant steeds , "With milk-white crest , gold spur , and light-pois'd lance ,. Four cavaliers prepare for _renturous deeds , And lowly hendiBg to thelists advance ; Rich aretheir scarfs , their chargers featlypranco ; If In . the dangerous game they _shiHe to-day , - The crowd ' s loud shont and ladies' lovely glance , Best prize of better acts , they bear away , And all that kings or chiefs e ' er gain their toils repay .
In costly sheen and gaudy cloak _array'd , But all _^ foot , _ttelight-linih'dMatadoro 7 Stands in the centre , eager to _inradt The lord of lowing herds * , hut not before The . ground , vtitli cautio n" tread , is-traversed o ' er , liestaught unseen should lurk to thwart his speed Sis arms a dart , he fights aloof , nor more Can man achieve without tlie friendly steed— ' Alas ! too oft condemned for him to hear and bleed . Thrice sounds the clarion ; lo ! the signal falls , Tiie den expands , and . Expectation mate _Gapcsround the silent _eircleV > peopled walls . Bound * with one lashing spring the mighty brute * , And wildly staring , spurns with sounding foot ,
The _eand , nor blindly rushes on his foe : Here , there , he points his threatening front , to suit His first attack , wide waving to ami fro ffili angry tail' red rolls hie eye's dilated glow . Sudden he stops - his eye is fixed : away , * Away _. _thonTieediesshoy ; prepare the spear : Sow is " tby time , to perish , or display The skill that yet may check his mad career . "With well-timed croupe the nimble coursers veer ; _Onrfoaros the bull , out not un 8 C _« tlied he gOBS J Streams from his flank the crimson torrent clear , He dies , he wheels , distracted with his throes ; Dart follows dart , lance , lance ; loud bellowings _sptak his woes .
Again he comes ; nor dart nor lance araU , yor the -wild plunging of the tortured horse _; Though man and man ' s aT ' _en-ring arms assail , Tain are his weapons , " vainer is his force . One gallant steed is stretch'd a mangled corse ; Another , hideous sight . ' unseam'd appears , His gory chest unveils life ' s panting source ; Though _death-StrUt'li , Still MsfeeM * frame he rears ; Staggering , hut _elcuiniug all , his lord unhann'd he hears . _JFoil'd , bleeding , breathless , furious tothe las t _^ Full in the centre stands the bull at bay , Mid wounds , and clinging darts , and lances brast , " And foes disabled in the brutal fray :
And now the Hat adores around Mm play , Shake the red cloak , and poise the ready brand : Once more through all he bursts his thundering way ; Tain rage ! the mantle quits theconynge hand , Wraps his fierce eye—' ns past—he ani _*^ upon the sand ! " Where his vast neck just mingles with the 6 pina , Sheathed in his form the deadly weapon lies . Be stops— -he starts—disdaining to decline : Slowly he falls , amidst triumphant cries , iriUiout a groan , without a straggle dies . The decorated car appears—on high The corse is piled—sweet sight for vulgar eyes—Pour steeds that spurn the rein , as swift as shy , Hurl the dark hulk along , scarce seen in dashing by .
Although the "Frank robber" no lpnger openly domineers over Spain , still French ambition and intrigue , that curse of Spain for the last hundred and fifty years , is at work , productive of their " _xisual infernal results . It is to the intrigue and corruption set In play by the pretended peace-loving hypocrite , Locis 1 ' _uiurPE , thatthe royal harlot , _CflBisrm , owes her return to the country from which , she -was previously expelled ; aud Spain owes the __ consequent terrorism and slaughterings which , during the last two years , have cursed that unhappy land . True , Spain is no longer at war with the Frank ; but the Hill more hideous civil war from which the country lias so long suffered , and the termination of whieh is yet far distant , has been prolonged by the liberticidal intrigues of the infamous traitor of the barricades . Thc following stanzas ( with which we conclude our extracts from the first canto of Childe Harold ) are therefore at the present time yet applicable to
distracted , cheated , blood-drenched Spain : — Such be the sons of Spain , and strange her fata t They li ght for freedom who were never free ; A Hngless people for a nerveless state , Her vassals combat when tlieir chieftain ' s flee , True to the veriest slaves of Treachery ; Pond of a laml which gave them nought hut life , _lVide points the path that leads to _Utrerty ; Hack to the struggle , baffled in the strife , "War , war is still the cry , " war even to thc knife !" Te , who would more of Spain and Spaniards know , Go , read whate ' er is writ of bloodiest strife : IVhate'erheen vengeance urged on foreign foo Can act , is acting tliere against man ' s life J _1-Vimi Hashing f eimitat to secret knife , War mouldeth there each weapon to his need—So may he guard the sister and the wife , So may he make each curst oppressor bleed , So mav sueh foes deserve the most remorseless deed .
Sot all the blood at _Talavera died , _JXotall tlie marvels of Darossa ' s fight , X < it _Alhueva lavish of Hie dead , Have won for Spain her well asserted right . Whexx shall her Olive-Branehbe free from blight f When shall she breath * her from the blushing toil 1 lion-many a doubtful day shall sink iu night , ~* - ' - •• _fr .. 5 > Jt robber turn him from bis spoil , * r- _ —r-tree _zvov , native of th * so" '

The second book opens with an address to the Lyre ; aud m the first eight stanzas a just tribute of grate lul admiration is paid to Chaucer , Spessek , _Shaksi'EiSE , _Bthox , and _Sheixet .

I cannot render thee;—but reverence true This heart shall give thee , till it reach the verge Where human splendours lose their " lustrous hue And when , in death , my mortal joys all merge— ' Thy grand and gorgeous music , Milton , —be my dirge IIn this book we are introduced to the spirits of three famous suicides , the two first Greek ; the third , _Indian—Emfedocles , ~ who to be deemed A god leapt fondly into Etna ' s flames * ,
Cleombbotcs— _. ¦ -T- who to enjoy Plato ' s Elysium leapt into the sea ; and Calaxus—— whom Emethian Philip ' s son beheld Amazed , —while pealing trumpets cleaved the sky , And warrior hosts the wondering tumult swelled , — Ride , on his goaded steed , undauntedly , Into thefuneral flame , —scorning to die . By nature ' s gradual law 1 The discussion in which the two Greeks engage , subsequently shared in by the Indian , seems to us somewhat tiresome ; at all events , the main portion of the book does not at all approach its spirited and beautiful opening . Leaving the second , we come at once to the third book , which opens with a magnificent address to the Sun : —
Bail , glorious Sun!—all hail the captive ' s friend ! . Giver of present joys , where Sorrow fain Would _eutar and abide , and , traitorous , lend Her power to aggravate tho tyrant ' s chain : — Great Exorcist , that bringest up the train of _ciriitihooa _' _sjoyaunco , and youth's drizzling dreams From tlie heart's sepulchre , —until , again , I live in extasy , mid woods , and streams , And golden flowers tliat laugh while kissed by thy bright beams . Aye , —once more , —mirrored in the silver Trent ,
. Thy noon . ti < le mnjesty I think I -new With boyish wonder ; or , till droused and spent With eagerness , peer np the vaulted blue With shaded eyes , watching the lark pursue lier dizzy flight;—then , on a fragrant bed Of meadow sweets still sprent with morning dew , ' ' Dream how the heavenly chambers overiiead . With steps of grace and joy the holy angels tread . . _,.. In language thatdoes him honour as a man as weU , as a poet , he pays homage to the memory of his mother : —
0 heart , —now cold in the devouring grave _. And tom , no more , h y scorn and Suffering , —* IIow fondly didst thou to tby darling cleave ! Although thy tyrants but a worthless thing Esteemed him . Itankled , deep , oppression ' s sting In thy recesses : —still , in hardihood Of conscious right , stern _ehallengs thou didst fling Back at thy foemen and th » ir hireling brood , — And heat unto old age with free and youthful blood 1 Mother ! , thy wrongs—the common wrongs of all To labour doomed by proud _apd selfish drones—Euduringly have fixed the burning gall Deep in my veins—aye , in my very bones . _1 hate ye , things with surplices and crowns 1—Serpents that poison , —tigers that devour _Toor human kind , and fill the earth with groans . Through every clime God send ye were no more I Te'd have a merry requiem from shore to shore _.

To filch from my poor widowed mother's toil ; And while the prowling jaekall held Ms huntj lie fattened oh the offals of the spoil , And ; mocked the sufferers ! -. IIow my blood did boil •' . When lately I beheld a gilded stone liaised to the memory of this vermin vile , And ' pious charity ascribed thereon . To him who gray beneath the poor ' s grim eurse had _Jgrown . ¦ _.. . 1 laid my aged mother near the . dust .. Of her oppressor : but no gilded verso Tells how she toiled to win her child a crust , _Anih fasting , still toiled on ; no rhymes _rehearso Jlow tenderly she strove to be the _nurso Of truth and nobleness in her loved boy , 'Spite of his rags
—; 0 Sun , thou dost amerce My withered heart , for the poor fleeting joy With which thy beams began my sadness to destroy . The Britannia reviewer says , ' . 'We cannot neglect still less despise , Terse like this , because it is mingled with much that we condemn * ind grieve over . This man is often violent , nay , coarse and brutal ; still he is one favoured of millions—a true and genuine poet . " lie continues his _addreis to the Sun : — Thou gorgeous lamp to light man to the home Appointed for all living I—though elate With throb of liberty regained I roam O ' er paths to life ' s glad morning consecrate—Will not thy flame foreshow that for mo wait

Of two pieces sent us by Thomas Joses we find the following worthy bf insertion ; chiefly , though , on account of the subject the writer has chosen . As a " poet" he has . a . wide field for improvement yet belbrehim . .
LINES ADDRESSED TO JOIIN FROST , £ 80 , bt _xnoitss Jo . _frs , LIVERPOOL , Hail ! hail ! all hail ; thouhOble patriot , Frost ; The first of Nature ' s nobles , and the friend Of _suff ' ring man , tho' now to us thou'rt'lost ; Tet shall a nation ' s prayers Heaven ' s arches rend Till thee and thy compatriots shall return To bless . the land , that now your absence mourn . Tho' bound in chains far from your native land , Anil exiled far from Britain's lovely shore ; Still shall th y name the dread of tyrants stand _. Whilst patriots thy unhappy fate " deplore : Nor shall the sons of Britain cease to mourn , Till thee awl thy compatriots iliali return ; Thy foes iu vain attempt to blast thy fame ,
And with their , false aud basely slandering tongues Heap hideous " Treason" on thy spotless name ; And thus add insult to thy numerous wrongs , . But still thy Cambria ' s sons shall' ever mourn , TiU thee and thy compatriots shall Mum .. ' let interested knaves thy fame traduce , ' And pour disgrace on thy devoted head , In rain they heap their torrents of abuse , And wish thee _number'd with the silent dead . _Brave'Scotia's sons shall never cease to mourn , lill thee and thy _com-patiuots shall return _. But soon with joy the merry bells shall ring , And Heaven ' s high arches echo with delight ; Thou shalt the funeral Song of faction sing , And Albion ' s sons shall yet obtain their right . A nation ' s mourning then shall turn to joy , And shouts of gladness echo through the sbj .

. , . . the past week the arrivals of wheat of home produce were , seasonably good , but of very middling quality , the . bulk being composed of new parcels prematurely threshed out . The receipts of English barley , oats , and beans were siuall , those ofma . lt , peas , and flour tolerably extensive- -Of Irish . oats , owing to the long continuance , of easterly winds , the fresh supplies were small , while the imports of foreign wheat , oats , and most other articles were not to say large . Up to this morning ! s -market only modcrato supplies ot wheat camo to hand from Essex , Kent , and Cambridgeshire consequently the stands were by no means heavily supplied . The attendance of buyers being numerous , and the demand for foreign wheat active , the trade for all kinds of English whoat was active ,
at an advance in the currencies obtained on this day se ' nnight ' of from Is . to 2 s . per . quarter , and at whicli al good clearance was eflected . Tlie letters which havo Teached us , from the Baltic and other parts today arc of a firm character . ' From Dantzic , under date the _iSthinsfc ., ' wc learn that wheat had advanced I _theve 5 s . per quarter , arising from , the large orders received from Holland and Belgium .. This , together I with several buyers being on . the market from the latter portions of the continent , gave great firmness to the importers , who were asking extravagantly high rates for bonded wheat . The transactions , however , were not ' ver y large , but about 12 , 00 V quarters . SOld for immediate shipment to _liolgiuni at prices aa high as 50 s . fov middling red . Free Foreign wheats were held at Is . to 2 s . per qr . more money , at which a fair amount of business was transacted . As somo of the
