6 mtft Literary. Ivanhce, by the author of Waverly, Rob Roy. Guy Mannering, and the an¬ tiquary,—The mighty unknown, who in hit novels of Waverly, Antiquary, and Tales of my Landlord, has created a new era of writing, and on whofe pages are flamped the fpirit of genius, has prefented to the world a new work, under the title of Ivanhos. We have perufed it with deep intercft. It is indeed a Tale of other times, and carries us back to the days of the Crufaders ; when the zeal of religious feelings was attended with all the prrde and pomp of glorioua chivalry, when honours and comforts at home were facrificed for a cnifade to the Holy Land. The following is a fpecimen of the poetry of this work. The Crusader's Return. Hisrh dredj achieved ni'knighrly fame. From Palestine the Champ inn came ; The" cross upon hi> shoulders bump. Battle and blast had difllnVd and lorn Each dint upon his batter" d shield Was token ofof a fougbien field ; And thus,beueain \\\i lad\V bower, lie sung,a3fell the twilight hour ; 44 Joy lo the fair, thy knight behold, Rcturu-d from yonder laud of gold : No weatih he bring-, nor wealth can need, Save his* good arms and battle steed ; His spurs to dash against the foe. His lance and sword to la> him low ; Such ail tlie trophies of his toil, Such—and the hope of Jcida'j smile. Joy to the f.tir. whose constant knight Her favour tired to feats of might ; Unnoted shall she not remain "Where meet the bright and noble train ; T&rrtrcl shall sing and herald tell— Mark \onder maid of beauty well, Tis she fornho.<e bright eyes ua3 won Tbeliued field at Ascalua, Vote well her smile—it edged the Made, Which fifty wives to widows made, When, vain his strength and Mahotiud'd spell, Iconium'sturbarrdsoldan fell See'st thou her locks, whose sonny glow- Half shows, half shades, her neck of snow ; Twines not of ihein one golden thread, i5ut for its sake a pa) nimble:!. Joy lo the fair—my name unknown, Each deed, and all its praise, thine own ; Then, oh, unbar this churlish gate— The night-dew falls—ihc hour is late. Innred to Syria's glowing breath, I feel the north breeze chill as death ; Let grateful love quell maiden shame, .Andgrant bim bliss who brings thee fame." •JV. V. jimcr. Extracts from London papers. Present from the King cf Prussia to the Duke of Wellington. The fined fervice of china ever imported into this kingdon, arrived from Harnbutgh on the 15th, as a prefent from the King of Prussia to the Duke of Wellington. On Tuefday lad the fame was efcorted to Apfley Houfe, by a party of officers belonging to the Cuftoms, attended by three Pruffian Officers. Tuefday a pro¬ portion of thefe glittering ornaments were fet out in the great banquetting room, for the infpeftion of the Duke and his friends. In the centre of a mod fuprrb plateau, enriched withexquifite or molu, appeared a triumphal column (an obelifk) containing an infeription, giving a flight outline of the gallant achievements. Magnificent vales, pcdeftals, and figures ; tureens, ice pails, plates, &c. all detailing the numerous ex¬ ploits of Britifh valor.

Every plate is different, containing figures, landfcapes, or public edifices in Spain, Portugal, »5cc. Flags and other military inlignia, appear in appropriate filiations. The paintings are matchlefs, being the combined works of the artiils of almoft every country. Court of King's Benchf Friday Dec. 1 o.

Bible Society of Holland is now printing .an coition of the Bible, on stereotype plates, prefented to it by the Britifh and Foreign Bible Society. A Savings Bank has been establi/hid at Botany Bay. The Worchester Journal states that Captain Baines, the receiving officer of that diftrift, has infpedted 800 of the out- penfioners who had been ordered by the Britifh government to appear and enroll themfelves. Thofe unfit for duty were dii miffed. The others were marched to Plymouth- Six hundred of out-penfioners Vvho had not appeared in time to enroll themfelves have been (truck from the penfior. lift. The Radicals of Bolton, in Lancalhire, have burnt Hunt in effigy, on fuipieiori of his being a fpy. At a late fair m England, three watches were ftolen.—All means to difcover the thief were ineffectual. A few day* after- public houfe iu the town, in a few minutes an eruption of a blood veflel caufed hia immediate death. On examining his p-rfon. the loft property was found. One of the corporals in the Coldftream [ regiment of guards, for improper conduft in opening letters which pafTed through his hands belonging to his comrades was drummed out of the regiment. A rope with a noofe was placed round his neck, and he was led between two drummers with the reft of the drummers beating the Rogues* March behind him. Having been difmiiTed, he inftantly put Hunt's colors in his cap, and gave three cheers, calling out, •• Hunt for ever." There has been a very awful wreck on the Kivors. A fine Weft Indiaman, very large and valuable, named Demerara, from Demerara to Liverpool, ft ruck on the niglitofthe 16th, and almod immedi¬ ately went to pieces. Twenty of her crew were buried in one grave on Saturday, at Collens'town, and two more on Sunday, not one faved that we know of! — Dublin Ga%. The two Indiamen recently lost off the Cape of Good Hope, were infured at Lloyd's for £100,000. King- Robert Bruce. Dunfermline, Nov. T2< There was found on the loth inftant. aqiong the rubbifh around the gtave of King Robert Bruce, of the reinterment of whofe body on the lrr;day preceding, an account was given in lafl Monday's Courant, a copper-plate, four inches wide, and five and three-eighth inches long, having inferibed on it a Crown, and the letters 4| Robertus Scotorum Rex," with a Crofs embracing, within the angles, four raffles, each with five points. This difeo- very is mod important, being all that was wanted to completely d-ilipnte the doubts that Itui luiked in the btcalls of many wiio were not fatisfied with the exilting his- tou'cal accounts, that the body, about which fo much has been faiJ, was that of the Revered Alienor of Scottifii Inde¬ pendence. Governor Malr, of Fort George, in Scotland, has obtained the permifiion of the Dule of Tori, to have the Prince of Saxe Colourg inferibed upon the ravelins of Fort George, that Prince having vifited faid fortrefs in the courfe of his tou» in Scotland. Fort George is the only regular fortrefs in Great Britain, aid its various baftions are named after the fonsof his Majesty. And now the rave¬ lins, which were the only part of the fo'ircfs without a name engraven on them, have that of the Prince Leopold, and are now Cw His Royal Highn.fs Prince Leo¬ pold of Saxe Cobourg's ravelins."
