London : PRINTED FOR THE PROPRIETORS, AND PUBLISHED BY LUPTON RELFE, 13, CORNHILL: (Where Communications for the Editor are requested to be addressed, Post paid.) AND SOLD BY ALL THE BOOKSELLERS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM, Eur, Mag, Vol. 81. March 1822. Сс a THE present number of this Work being the first published under the new Proprietorship, it is incumbent upon us to state, that every connexion betu.een the family of the late Mr. ASPERNE and the EUROPEAN MAGAZINE is now tinally and entirely closed. It is more peculiarly our duty to mention this, because many of our friends' communications continuing to be addressed to the name of AsFERNE, a considerable portion of them have never come into our hands at all; and we have thus been equally deprived of the honour of acknowledging our Correspondents' polite attentions, and ot availing ourselves of their kind assistance. Any apparent neglect, therefore, under such circumstances, -of which we entreat our friends to believe us perfectly innocent,-will, we are assured, be most readily forgiven; and we have now to request that all future favours may be addressed personally to us, ALFRED BEAUCHAMP, at our new Office, No. 13, Corphill, to which, we contidently trust, no similar mishap will ever again occur. D. F. has our renewed thanks for his renewed attentions ; though we apprehend that some little time must elapse before we bring his reinforcements into action. Our rhyming friend in Cullum-street, who feels so sensitive about our protaning the name of Enort, by introducing it into our Conversazioné, is most respectfully informed, that the appellation of the God of Poetry is never spelled Appollo, and that his lordship of Byron's daughter's name is Adu. We have just learned that several letters in this Gentleman's writing have been again returned to the Post Office, because sent uppaid : Is our worthy Correspondent incorrigible? or, can he not spare his Valet to deliver them personally? The kind notice of Angelina would be a feather in the plume of any Enitor, and ALFRED BEAUCHAMP is to the service of the fair too deeply bound, not to feel honoured by her regard, and anxious to evince his sense of it, by an immediate compliance with her valuable suggestions. We have perused with all the requisite care and attention Philander's three volumes of Rhymes, written, as he assures us, and as we most conscientiously believe, entirely out of his own kead!” and though we doubt not but that there may be inany brilliant passages, and novel ideas, and much deep reasoning and powerful poetry; yet, after most patiently reading through all the seventeen thousand, three hundred and thirty five lines, we regret that we have been so unfortunate as not to discover them. We shall, however, not fail transmitting our worthy Correspondent the earliest intelligence of our success, should we hereafter be lucky enough to meet with any thing worth notice. The very disinterested benevolence of Philanthropos in so warmly recommending “Mr. Baker's Patent Guns with Spring Locks," would be much more efficiently exerted by applying to our Publisher, who will readily inform him of the terms of Advertising on the Cover; as we admit no puffs direct in that portion of the work under our controul, except our own ; and we need not Mr. B.'s valuable firelochs to enable us to teach the young idea how to shoot.”-Ifhis guns will not go off without assistance, Philanthropos' letter is very much at his service for wadding. We are sorry to say that B. cannot be in our next;-His--that is it 8. be a Gentleman,--His verses are really worse and worse. Mercator's Tracts on the Dry Rot will not suit our Miscellany: we have a very great antipathy to all dry subjects, and are by no means tractable. We much regret having left ourselves so little space to do jnstice to the entreaty we have received in behalt of “ THE LONDON ORPHAN ASYLUM;" but though our pleading will be brief, it will, we very anxiously hope, not fail to be successful. This valuable charity was founded under the immediate auspices of the late benevolent Duke of Kent, in the year 1813, and H. R. Ass's last donation was paid to it only three days preceding his lamented decease. The objects of the Institution are to provide an home, and food, and education for those Orphans, whose relatives have seen better days; but who are themselves too often bereft of all other refiige, and deprived of all other resource. Though the ASYLUM at present contains nearly 150 Children, 14 only could be admitted at the last Election, out of a list of 91 Candidates, from the inadequacy of the Society's funds to meet the numerous claims upon it's beneficence. A vast extra expense being also incurred from the Institution's present accommodations being merely temporary, a considerable advance has already been made towards a building fund, for new and more commocions premises. It is in belilt of this Charity, that we now appeal to the public liberality. It is in behalf of the most unprotected of human beings, the destitute and friendless Orphan, that we now entreat the public sympathy; and it would be an impeachment of the best feelings of our country's philanthropy, for a moment to fear that our appeal will be in vain. |
