Review Of Literature, &C.
The- Feathers—His Presidency of the Society of Arts , and Royal Society . Left ofthe Chair—The illness and death . Eyes and Eyebrows , Whiskers , Holy Eye on the Chair , § c . —Subsequent arrangements , last moments , & c . We have merely noticed the above few points to explain the mode of reading this magnificent specimen of Calligraphywhich represents the
, late Royal Duke on the old Masonic throne in the large hall . In form it very closely follows the arrangement ofthe portrait by Bro . Harris , on which , however , it has improved , being a striking likeness of His Royal Highness in recent years , ancl with the cap which was latterly worn . The writing on stone , the working off , and the compilation , is the unaided result of the author ' s efforts ; by birth a Polish Jew , born to better prospects ; a Freemason seeking a maintenance by the exercise of
his talents . To every patron of the arts , to Freemasons , and more especially to Lodges , we clo most earnestly recommend this unequalled production as deserving their attention . Its superior merit is no mean qualification ; the cheapness of the charge for print ancl book ( six shillings ) is remarkable . Bro . Rosenthal ' s address is 189 , AVellington Terrace , Waterloo Bridge . He is a teacher of the German language on a new and improved system , also of drawing in all its branches . Success to the arts say we , and to our foreign Brother in particular ; and may he find in ' this country some reparation for the heartless cause of expatriation from his own !
The Voice of Jacob . —A publication of the Anglo-Jewish periodical press . Steel , Paternoster Row . Our attention has been called to this fortni ghtly serial , which appears "intended for the promotion of the spiritual and general welfare of the Jews , by the dissemination of intelligence on subjects affecting their interests , and by the advocacy and defence of their religious institution . " The two first volumes have just reached us , too late for critical examination at the present time ; but the subjects expressed in the " word of
promise" are too important to be passed over , and we hope to find time hereafter to join company , and " go along" with Jacob , listening to his voice , and find good reason to " do likewise . " As a passing comment , we do not discover that strength and mighty impulse of proud morality , but rather the stillness of a fearful hope , that is not likely to herald success ; there is , however , in No . 61 , a very masterly article on "The Press , as a means to ameliorate the religious , moral , antl social condition of the Jews , " in which there are some home-thrust arguments , which the Editor follows up by admitting the justice of the remark , and suggesting a plan of operation .
Ravenscourt ; a Dramatic Legend , in three Acts , as performed at Wolverhampton . By Henry AV . Wynne . London : Simpkins and Co ., Stationers' Hall Court ; Joseph Bvidgeu , Wolverhampton , 1843 . This is a play from the pen of a youth just pluming his poetic pinions to soar into the regions of Mount Parnassus . As a whole , it does his genius considerable credit , proving that during the hours of recess from the avocations of "leather , " as the song says , he has keenly pursued the more tasteful paths of " learning .
