the shock to the general system does not prove fatal; it brings on delirium in a slight degree, and great pain; but if the poison produce a local injury of sufficient extent, the patient also dies, while all slighter cases recover. The effect of the poison on the constitution is so immediate, and the irritability of the stomach is so great, that there is no opportunity of exhibiting medicines till it has fairly taken place, and then there is little chance of beneficial effects being pro, duced. The only rational local treatment to prevent the secondary mischief, is making ligatures above the tumefied part, to compress the cellular membrane and set bounds to the swelling, which only spreads in the loose parts under the skin; and then scarifying freely the parts already swoln, that the effused serum muy escape, and the matter be discharged as soon as formed. REVIEW OF NEW MUSICAL PUBLICATIONS. Three Airs for the Harp, with ad libitum Accompaniments for the Piano-forte and German Flute. Composed and inscribed to Miss Riby, by J. Mazzinghi. 7s. 6d. T HESE airs are not only conceived with taste, but carry with them evident marks of those talents for which we have so long given Mr. Mazzinghi credit. The passages lic remarkably well for the hand: yet, though not diffcult of exccution, are productive of a strong and brilliant effect, and are at Once calculated to engage the attention of the auditor, and show the perforiner to advantage. The piano-forte accompaniment is ingeniously constructed, and the bass and disposition of the whole, is judicious and masterly. Sonata for the Piano-forte. Composed by T. H. Builer, 35. Mr. Butler in this sonata, (many passages of which are ingenious and novel,) has with much happiness of effect introduced the favourite air of "Mary, I believ'd thee truc." The introductory and concluding movements of the piece are conceived with energy, and conducted with taste, and the general result is worthy Mr. Butler's well-known talents as a piano-forte composer. When Time who steals our Years away;" a favourite Glee for three Voices. Composed for "Mr. Page's Festive Harmony, by J. W. Calcott. Mus. Doc. 35. This glee, the words of which are from Little's Poems, is set a la ballata. The air is ardent and mellifluent, the points, wherever introduced, well sustained, and the general construction of the harmony is good. We however cannot say that we trace any of those striking and dis tinguished features common to the productions of this ingenious master; nor is the combination unexceptionably the best that might have been adopted. Dedicated "Les Petits Riens;" a Divertisement. Some pleasing and ingenious passages are scattered in this divertiseme .t; but we cannot, in candour, say that we are particularly struck with the tout ensemble, It wants connection, and fails in vigour and brilliancy. A Parody on the Christian Dorology, by Mr. Pate, of Bury St. Elmond's; and set to Music for three Voices by George Guest, Organist of Wisbecb. 25. Mr. Guest has exhibited some fancy, and a tolerable degree of science, in this parody. The melody is smooth and natural, and the combination is good. We are sorry we cannot be equally com plimentary to Mr. Pate on his Parody of the Christian Dorology. "Early Days bow fair and fleeting;" a favourite Song, sung by Mrs. Ashe at the Han-versquare Concerts. Composed by Sir J. A. Stevenson, Mus. Doc. 15. The melody of this little ballad is simply elegant, and well expresses the sen timent of the poetry. Originality of idea is not, perhaps, one of its distin guishing features; but the thoughts are just, and arise so naturally out of cach other, as to produce an effect as striking as interesting. The Opera Hat; a favourite Dance, composed and arranged as a familiar Rondo for the Piano forte, also adapted for the Flute or Flageolet, by J. Parry, Editor of the Welsh Melodies. is. Gd. This dance, in the form Mr. Parry here presents it to the public, affords a pleasing exercise for juvenile practitioners on the instrument for which it is intended, and exhibits to advantage the author's talent in the production of useful trifles, A Divertimento A Divertimento for the Double Flagenlet. Com pared, arranged, and performed, with the greatest plause, by J. Parry. Dedicated to J. A. Willink, erg. 15. 6d. This divertimento, in which Mr. Parry has introduced the air of Sul Margine Cun hio, with variations, is, in the grand points of consistency and connection, highly creditable to his taste and judg ment. The variations are ingeniously conceived, and the subject of the rondo is simple and attractive. "Beware of the Cuckoo; a favourite comic Song, sung with great applause by Mrs. Bland. Composed by Mr. W. T. Parke. 15.6d. This little ballad, the words of which are far from being destitute of humour, is pleasing in its melody. In the imitations of the cuckoo, Mr. Parke, after what has already been done, had no choice but to iniitate Arne, who had taken up the burthen before him, and left no opportunity for a successor. The murb admired Guaraca danced by Miss Smith in the Grand Ballet of the Castilian Minstrel, arranged as a Rondo for the Piano-forte, by H. R. Bishop. 18.6d. This rondo, taken in the aggregate, is of a cast that cannot but please the majority of hearers; the passages, though perhaps for the most part not far re moved from common-place, are so judi The Coronach, or Funeral Song, "He's gone on the Mountain." The Poetry from the Lady of the Lake, written by W. Scott, esq. Composed expressly for Mrs. Asbe, and inscribed to Lady Harriet Clive, by Dr. J. Clarke, of Cambridge. Dr. Clarke has in this Funeral Song acquitted himself in a style no way derogatory from his well merited repute as a vocal composer. The melody is most affectingly appropriate, the expression is just and forcible, and the bass is chosen, and accompaniment arranged, with real taste and mastery. The favourite Pas de Quatre, danced by Mr. d'Egville's Pupils in the Grand Ballet of the Castilian Minstrel; also in the favourite Spanish Divertisement at the English Opera. Composed and arranged as a Rondo for the Pianoforte, by H. R. Bishop, s. 6d. With the subject of this rondo the public are too well acquainted to requice our remarks on its merits. The digres sive matter is consonant to the theme, and connected with inself; and the general effect, if not striking, is above mediocrity. MONTHLY RETROSPECT OF THE FINE ARTS. The Use of all New Prints, Communications of Articles of Intelligence, &c. are requested under COVER to the Cure of the Publisher. The Battle of Maida. Engraved by Anthony Cardon, frem a Picture painted by P. J. De Loutherbourg, esq. R.A. of N viewing pictures or prints of battles, or tarily reverts to the incomparable engravings from the battles of Alexander the Great, by Le Brun. The mode of modern warfare is not so favorable to pictorial representation, as that of the ancients. With the ancients, war was not so much of a science, so many tn.en were seldom led out, and conducted as great machines among them, as with us. We employ columns of men of various sorts, and lead them by officers employing variety of manœuvres to obtain certain positions prior to a trial of arms. On the contrary, the ancient mode employing fewer men, and depending more on personal prowess in those men, were often a series of single combats by heroes singling out each other, as so admirably described by Homer. The combat de scribed in this picture was one more approaching to this latter mode than any one described in modern history; and will ever be a distinguishing and honourable feature in the mibrary cha racter of Great Britain. Mr. De Lo therbourg has rendered his name as deservedly celebrated for painting modern combats as Le Brun those of the an❤ cients; and has even with inferior materals to the painterofAlexander's battles, set himself on a level in the scale of painting, with this celebrated master. In this picture, the plain of Maida is accurately painted; and the whole of the combatting armies (if so small a quantity as the English had could be called an army) displayed in a most interesting and important period of the battle. The engraving could scarcely have been con fided to a better artist than Mr. Cardon, who has executed his task with considerable ability: the figures are drawn with accuracy, and beautifully finished; and the The third Part of this work, devoted to the national architectural antiquities of our native country, is appropriated to the delineation of the Chapel Royal of St. George, at Windsor. When we reflect on the manner in which English antiquities have been presented to the public (the graphic department is alone alluded to) by Grose and Gough, those princes of antiquarianism, we certainly cannot too much wish that Mr. Britton may persevere in his present excellent style of representation. Although it has gone on in so many Numbers, no direlection has taken place of either quality or quantity; the same artists, or others of equal merit, have been engaged by him in the execution of the plates, and the same fidelity distinguishes the draftsmen. Mr. Mackenzie particularly deserves praise for the judgment he has displayed in the selection of proper stations for his views, and for the truth and fidelity of the lineal and aerial perspective in his productions. The interior of the Chapel is one of those productions which, for correctness of detail and goodness of effect, would have done honour to a Clerisseau, or a Piranesi. Of the engravings it is sufficient to say, that they are equal in every respect to the best in any former Number of this work. An Essay on the Doric Order of Architecture; by Edmund Aikin, Architect. Published by Taylor, for the Architectural Society. This is an essay on the most ancient, most simple and sublime, of the orders of architecture, which has been too little understood by the best of our architects. From Inigo Jones to Sir William Chambers, nothing but the Roman corruption and spoliation of this order (which was too much sanctioned by the authorities of Vignola, Palladio, and Scauwzza, was known in England. Stuart (called the Athenian) bas the honor of introducing it to our knowledge; Mr. Smirke of em. ploying it first in a grand style; * and By this term we do not mean to sanction Their use of this order in theatrical edifices, as Mr. Aikin, of recommending it in a powerful manner from his pen. This work contains outline engravings of every authoritative specimen of the order, all reduced from the best authorities to one scale, description of them, and critical Topinion on their comparative value. In Our opinion, the example from the Agora, or portico of four columns at the entrance to the ancient market-place at Athens, the standard of the order, from which all that differ more or less, are more or less beautiful. An allowance must certainly be made for optical deception, if they are used on a very large scale. N. B. The volume of Essays, by members of this Society, in our next. INTELLIGENCE. As the name of every distinguished patron of the fine Arts is deserving of record, it is with much pleasure we meution that Mr. Johnes, of Hafod, has, with that penetration which distinguishes the true judge of merit in art, engaged Mr. Stothard, the Royal Academician, to paint some splendid decorations at his seat, and which are already began. The arts have lost a munificent patron by the death of sir Francis Baring, some particulars of whom will be found in another part of our Magazine. Sir Francis was the purchaser, at a very liberal price, of the President West's picture of "Christ teaching Humility," from the last year's exhibition. The gallery of the Britsh Institution in Pall-Mall, is now open for the students; and several noblemen and gentlemen have generously lent pictures for their studies, which is highly praise-worthy, and deserving commendation as far as it goes; but something farther is yet demanded from this patriotic society. The arts are tender plants, and, like the mimosa sensitiva, sicken at the touch of common-place restriction, or the chilling air of rigid formality. The restrictions of " size of canvas," copying only parts of pictures (surely it is not feared an English artist can equal a foreign one!) limited days and hours, have given a tinge of dissatisfaction among some of the most promising of the students. This is not intended as disrespectful to the gover nors of the institution, but as a hint of a grievance they must feel a pleasure in removing, when they are informed of it. As a contrast, we will only mention the Louvre may be seen in our review of Covent Garden Theatre, a short time after its completion. Louvre at Paris, without any recommendation of the system as fit for England, that no restriction whatever is laid on copying any of the pictures, entirely or in part, and that every day, but Saturday and Sunday, is open to the artists. We'expect, in the course of the mot.th, some important inteligence from Parts, on the state of the Arts in France, which shall not fail to be inserted in this place.
