      ^ Were gathered here for prophecy or song . Not only in the bloom of ripened Thought , Had the wise craftsman fixed in sculptured moulds , Eternal Grace and perfect Loveliness , So marrying melody to marble forms , But the enormous bulk of ancient gods , The primal rulers of a buried world , Groucht , stood or leant in solid dreadfulness . Here a vast engine roared and screamed aloud , Or hissed and bubbled out thick flame and smoke With noisy respiration ; here its like An equal front opposed , till midway both For mutual harm encountered , and the shock Startled the ponderous marble images . Here Zagreus , from clencht teeth , defiance jarred , Porphyrion , Brontes , Arges , Steropes , Rage , Murder , Phrenzy , and all monstrous Shapes , Gloomed on the air as meteors and foul winds In stagnant marshes brgtL ^ eff ' sand and sea . Here glared Medusa ' s head , with frozen orbs , And held between strangeUerror and delight The Heart that lookt on itstoeiodious pain . Memnonian Statues from grandseval Thebes , And of old kings the marble pieties Stood round , grey children of the . eternal Prime , Fixing their dead eyes on the passer-by . Now paused the Princess , where a temple rose ; Sacred to Aphrodite was the fane , And entering here awhile with lowly voice She prayed serene . But soon tumultuous sounds Swelled up and thickened on the humming air . Then from the fane , passing with sudden haste She left those images of Fear and Love , Nor paused until her eager feet attained A lawny upland , where the orient sun Smiled on a temple that before the dawn Rose like a marble dream , but westering shone On ruins , and departed glory mourned . What few white blocks yet stood resisting force , One piled on other , impious hands assailed . Wpmen with flushing cheeks and glaring eyes

      Shouted , when marble fragments snowed the ground ; Old men whose silver hairs fresh brilliance caught From the indignant sun , curst long and loud , Blaspheming the Great God , or shattered fane And Statue with rude axe , or manacled The Bacchic priests with rush or withy green ; Here youth and maid entreated , raved and wept—Above the multitude rose eminent A Form imperial that with quiet eyes Beheld the waste and terror of the scene : Approving what he saw ; a kingly crown Circled his head , and purple robes adorned His stately limbs : no passion lit his face , But on his brow sat intellect enthroned—This was the Flower of Cretan chivalry , Minos , sole judge and sovran of the land , Who loving well the old laws and sanctities , O ' erlookt the grander Life that still renews The ancient order , and with random blow Struck down the loveliest growth of budding Time .

      Necessity op Education' . —The necessity for educating the working man is dictated by the very reasons which these objectors \ irgc as arguments against it . In the savage and barbarian states of society , the humblest member of the tribe is not , in point of acquired information , intellectual power , and refinement of taste , nearly so far below his chief and the magnates of the land , as is the peasant or labourer who can neither read nor write , beneath our educated upper and middle ranks . The high instruction of the minority , and the unabated savage-like ignorance of the majority of our population , have silently effected the greatest . social revolution that the world has ever witnessed . Education has given a scope of knowledge and an intellectual capacity to the former , which have placed in their hands the resources of nature , wealth , refinement ,, and political power , to an extent unparalleled in the history of nations , while scarcely one step in advance in all these advantages has been made by that portion of the people which continues altogether unin-Btructed . —From the Westminster Review for July .

      OTELLO . On Tuesday Otello was given at the Royal Italian for the first time this season , and we wish , we could borrow Vivian ' s pen to say how admirably it was performed . The orchestra was perfection , and the lovely accompaniments were played as one can only hear them at this theatre . Tamberlik was suffering from relaxation of the throat , but sang with all hia fire and energy , the c in alt electrifying the audience as usual m that garden-scene duet . But his performance lacked the energy of his singing . His presence , and bearing were noble , manly , generous ; but he was not wild enough in his rage . Grisi is not now seen to the greatest advantage in Besdemona . But we remember when it was one of her triumphs . lago was never so finely represented as by Konconi , and Galvani did his best to restore Boderigo to due importance . Ine first act of H Barbiere followed , and showed Ronconi in all his consummate mastery , with Mario as winning and refined as it is possible for an Almaviva to be . We share Vivian ' s want of sympathy with Madame Castellan , and yet we listened to her exquisite voice with a feeling akin to delight . '__
