A German maid shall kiss thee not, A German song rejoice thee not, And German wine shall warm thee not! He who has strength to wield a brand, Let him draw it now for his father-land!

CHARLES LAMB, ESQ. WE have to record the death of this amiable man and gentle poet on Saturday last. Mr. Lamb was born in 1775, and educated in Christ's Hospital. He was contemporary with Coleridge and Lloyd, and enjoyed the regard and friendship of Southey, and other distinguished writers. His life was spent as a clerk in the India House, from which he had latterly retired on a pension. His first publication was, in conjunction with Lloyd, in 1798, a small volume entitled "Blank Verses." "Rosomand Grey" speedily followed, and afterwards the tragedy of "John Woodville," the Adventures of Ulysses,' ""Specimens of English Dramatic Poets," " Sonnets," &c. &c. Of his principal productions it has been our duty to speak; and our only partial approbation of the last of them procured us a good deal of abuse. But though we adhere to that opinion, we are not blind to the beauties of Mr. Lamb's poetry; inspired by a fine feeling for our elder dramatists, and a mind sweetly tuned to the amenities and kindnesses of life. No man was more beloved by those who enjoyed his friendship. In conversation he was pointed and witty. His death was occasioned by a slight accident-a fall by which his forehead was cut inflammation succeeded, and the bard was released after an illness of only a very few days. THE REV. T. M. MALTHUS. THIS eminent political and excellent man died on Monday, at Bath. He was the son of Daniel Malthus, Esq., of Albury, Berks; and was educated at Jesus College, Cambridge. His works on political economy, and especially on the principles of population, have furnished food for much controversy; but no one has doubted the originality and profoundness of his views and reasoning; and though his opinions have been fiercely assailed, his private character stands on the highest pinnacle of good report and estimation. JAMES MURRAY, ESQ. DIED lately, at Brighton, James Murray, Esq. foreign editor of the Times newspaper. Our departed friend was one of the most accomplished scholars of the present day; he had also a sound judgment, and every amiable quality of the heart.

The subjoined is by John Lander: Lines suggested on Revisiting the Banks of the Fal, near Truro, in the Spring of 1834. ONCE more I stand beside thee, wandering stream! Once more behold the sun's departing gleam Salute thy peaceful waters; and once more Inhale the freshness wafted to thy shore! Years have gone by since last my footsteps strayed But though long absent, Memory's wizard art, These scenes among, and traced their vernal shade: Where'er I roamed, restored them to my heart. These charming elms, those hills with herbage crown'd, Yon sacred spire, and well-known objects round, Distinct and vivid youthful scenes recall, And with a mournful halo circle all. That artless period, cheered with Hope's young dreams! How like a sweet but touching story seems Ye phantom shapes that glide in silence by, Affecting shadows of the past, draw nigh!

I well remember when a heedless boy sought these lanes and rural walks with joy; Admired this graceful River's ebb and flow, And lingering wondered where its waves could go!

Aurora Borealis. — On the evening of Monday week, soon after five o'clock, a brilliant Aurora was seen from Worcester, towards the north and north-west of the horizon. The phenomena lasted two hours, and displayed coruscations finely radiated, a diffusion of silver light, and other beautiful appearances. LITERARY NOVELTIES. We are glad to see that in the Western capital of England, and so wealthy and intelligent a city as Bristol, a prospectus has been issued of a quarterly periodical, to be entitled the "West of England Journal of Science and Literature." The prospectus, among other matters, justly notices that the coal-fields of Bristol and South Wales, the iron and copper works of Monmouth and Glamorgan, the varied character and dislocated structure of the rocks, and the numerous animal and vegetable fossils which they contain, afford numerous and valuable opportunities of experiment and observation to the chemist, the geologist, and the student of organic remains. The temperate climate and fertile soil favour the operations of the botanist; and although Bristol cannot boast of peculiar advantages for the observation of celestial phenomena, yet the establishment of an observatory, and the residence of a practical astronomer, are considerations well deserving of mention. Such are the opportunities of observation at home: from abroad the ships of the merchants are daily bringing hither rare and valuable curiosities, many of which, by purchase or the liberality of their possessors, find their way into the public museum of the Institution. We hope soon to greet an able contemporary in the field of science and literature. In the Press.

Shortly will be published, THE CRUCIFIXION, BY JOHN MARTIN. It might be deemed sufficient, in order to invite attention to this magnificent creation of Mr. Martin's pencil, to refer to the success which has distinguished his former Illustrations of Scripture History. Experience, however, has shewn that his genius has ever risen with the sublimity of his theme; and his delineation of the GREAT SACRIFICE ON CALVARY- the most sublime subject that was ever offered to the contemplation of man affords a splendid corroboration of the fact. This Picture of ancient Jerusalem, the ground plan of which is derived from unquestionable authority, while it embraces all the architectural features of the Holy City, as described by Josephus, realises, in the figure of the SAVIOUR on the Cross, as well as in the episodical groups around it, the details which the Sacred Volume affords of the awful scene. The moment on which the Painter has seized is that when "a pall of darkness veils the land of Palestine" OUR SAVIOUR DIES. The result, it may fearlessly be said, is one of the most splendid specimens of that class of pictures which, while they captivate the eye and entrance the fancy, convey a solemn, and, it is hoped, rarely unregarded lesson to the human heart.
