Mr,CaRguisie’s Translation of some 
Odes and little Poems from the Arabic is 
expected soon to make its appearance. 
Tke Arabic is to be printed on one, and 
the English translation on the other side 
of the page. The Translator, a few years 
ago, published a small historical work, 
with the Arabic on one side, anda Latin 
translation on the other side of the page, 
which of course has met with very few 
readers. When he has finished his poetical 
amusements, we shall be glad-to receive 
some solid information from the in of 
this gentleman, on the learning of the 
Arabians in the middle ages, a branch of 
knowledge very defe€tive in this country. 
The Rev. Mr. Bipiake, of. Ply- 
mouth, is about te publish, by subscrip- 
tion, a poem in blank verse, to be en- 
titled “<THE Sea.”

ing a new and elegant edition of his work

come very scarce.

. _A-copy of the MS. found in the ruins 
-of Herculaneum, and published by order 
of his Sicilian Majesty, is now lodged, we 
understand, in the library of Christ 
Church, Oxford. We cannot doubt,that 
“some of the learned of that place will exa- 
mine accurately the work, and if they 
do not favour the public with a transla- 
tion of it, will at least shew, from this 
oldest specimen of writing, the difference, 
if any, between the. written charaéters 
of this manuscript, and those we have of 
a much later date. Our readers will 
easily conceive the difficulty there must 
have been in reading this manuscript, by 
considering, that the finest instruments 
were necessary in gathering up every 
fragment, and placing it in its proper 
order on glewed paper. 
Messrs. Boy DELLS have given notice, 
that the splendid Print of the Death of 
Major Pierson, engraved by Mr. Heath, 
from the capital pi€ture of Mr. Copley, 
will be ready for delivery to the sub- 
scribers by the latter end of May. It is 
worthy of notice, as a circumstance un- 
paralleled in the history of the fine arts, 
that by the time this print is published, it 
will have.cost Messrs. Boydells the enor-

From Ireland, we learn, that the spirit 
of literary improvement is making a rapid 
progress there, notwithstanding the n@-
