Langbourn Chambers, April 27 3 C Mr. Editor, CORRESPONDENCE, (Alluded to in the Converzationé.) I read your prospectus of last month with very particular attention, and whatever pleasure I found in the improvements which you announce, nothing gave me such unmixed satisfaction as to find, that the sanctuary of private opinion was henceforth to remain inviolate in your Magazine. No advantage can be gained by attempting to enchain the mental faculties, because no one will submit to such fetters but he who is a slave already; and what need is there of forging chains for those dastard spirits who enchain themselves. These ideas naturally suggested themselves to my mind when I read your prospectus, but how greatly did I find myself disappointed when I perused, in the very number in which you hold forth this promise to the public, two despicable attacks upon private character. The first, and I must say, the most discreditable to the work which you conduct, is upon the late proprietors of the Magazine. Your correspondent, A. M. T. informs you, that it is unnecessary for him to describe how agreeable it is to his feelings, and to the feelings of the public, that all connection between the late proprietors and the European has ceased, as you are already acquainted with them. It is unmanly to attack a defenceless enemy. You and your correspondent concealed your animosity against the family of the late proprietors while you and they stood upon equal ground, and while they had an opportunity of disproving any unfounded charges which might be brought forward against them; but the moment they are deprived of this advantage, and that they give you peaceable possession of their offensive and defensive weapons, you attack them with your two-edged sword. The late proprietors, you acknowledge, had no connection with the number on which I am now commenting; therefore it must be solely your own fault that the same despicable attack upon the first writer of the age is continued in its pages. That Lord Byron possesses a portion of your own nature I am willing to admit; he is not more than mortal, and must therefore necessarily be subject to that falli. bility, above which human nature and the faculties with which it is endowed can never raise its aspiring flight. He never maintained that you, or any of your readers, were obliged to adopt his opinions as canons of infallible and immutable truth. were at liberty to disprove them if you could; but, instead of doing so, what have you done? I regret I should have to say, that you have totally misrepresented them; and, what is infinitely worse, you allow that you have gone beyond what your strict duty required of you in attempting to substantiate your misrepresentations. After quoting his letter at full length, you say, "it is palpably evident that his fordship felt, a priori, that his You mystery was reprehensible." This is what I call a 'downright misrepresentation, for his lordship endeavours to defend the propriety of his conduct from beginning to end. He says that "Cain is nothing more than a drama, not a piece of argument." Is it not obvions that his lordship, in publishing his "Cain," has not advanced his own opinions, or arguments, but such opinions and arguments as he ima gined would have been resorted to by his Dramatis Persona? You tell us, that his lordship is a banished man at Pisa abusing others." Indeed, sir, I apprehend that if there be any evil in abuse, you are not the person who should expose its turpitude; for your attack upon Lord Byron is a continued strain of abuse, and it is marked with such acrimony that perhaps no two pieces of composition can differ more from each other in their style and manner, than your prospectus does from your strictures upon his lordship. I am aware, sir, that this communication will not find a place in the European. Stubborn truths are seldom relished by those whose conduct they affect. I care not, however, whether you publish it or not, provided you are governed by the advice which it conveys. I am, Sir, &c. R.S. P. Extract from a constant Correspondent to the Editor. "You have it in your power, if you think proper, tocontinue your anatomising strictures, to cut me up inany shape or manner you think proper. I cannot defend myself, having no press to protect me. There's a golden rule, Do unto others,' &c. I wish you to act upon it, as it regards me." ENORT. The following is an extract from a letter written by Mrs. A- -, one of the family of the late worthy proprietor; in answer to a letter addressed to her by the present proprietors, wherein they disclaimed all participation or knowledge of the gross attacks, that unfortunately appeared in the last number. "I feel obliged by your polite explanation, and much satisfied at your exoneration from being the dictator of the ungentlemanly remark in the late Magazine; being quite sensible that the interest felt, and the exertion made, to further your wishes merited a different return to the family." A. E. A. The present proprietors and present edi tor feel truly sorry that the peace of this lady's family should have been thus invaded; her accomplishments, her unassuming talents, her unimpeachable conduct, are as conspicuous to her friends; as her prudence and her domestic virtues are useful to her family.
