This kind of life --the cheerless gloom :of a hermit, with the itucaarling toil of a galley slave; brought me to my sixteenth Year." This was the early of our poet His ad vantages of education were limited; hit, know ..ledge of ancient history was gathered from Sal naoteti and9rithtiesGeograpnical Grammars; and the ideaS he formed of modern manners, of liters true, and criticism, be got from the Spectator. What;other information he obtained, he gathered from a , fetv hoOks, mostly odd volumes which his father contrived, to-borrow. About his. Sixteenth Year; as he tells us , himself, he had " &it commit-. • - led the sin of rhyme," which brought him consid= erablevillagelaire. He was of very social habits, and found-of female society. : .Allan Carmine:aim. in his "History of Literature," says: ' "His sensibility-was deep; his passions over &Wing and strong; mid •he lov.ed—nay, we• moy, say adored, Whatever was gentle and beautiful: He had an eloquent word and an inspired song for every fair Tace that smiled on him; and witty saying and a fierce lampoon for every rustic trim thicarted or contradicted him. He imputed his first inspilation -to. love; the loveliness and simplicity`of a young girt who reaped in the har vest by . Fais, side, drew truth his first song; and his - latest was addressed to a haughtier and higher beauty, to whom he, had once in vain poured out the richest incense the moss hid' to , offer. In July, 1776, he sent forth , a litta volume laden with all his hopes -ta the world. Never was a poets song:received with so much affection, and even rapture. The volume flew from cottage to hall, and from hall to castle; the farmer at his Plough, the ,shepherd with his flock, the country maiden at her wheel, were not less moved than were the well educated, the college , bred, the high born and the fat descended. His wit, and humor, and morality, and plitlanihropy, eras expressed in -the language of humble life, so a language reek oned barbarous by. scholars, but which, coming 'from the lipaPf inspiration, became classical and elevated. His " , poetry gashed like sunshine over thejand I belay down to sleep obscure, and awoke eminent -He was invited to Edinburgh, where Blair - called him the Lowland Milan. The in spired_ peasant was received and entertained as a son wondef; he awas exhibited at the tables of the great, that they might make merry with him. jrie_ was praised, caressed, and feasted, tilt the taste for things rustic was cloyed, and men desired to see: something new; lords arid ladies neglected to, invite him,. and when be met them by chance, sainted him coldly, or •pSssed him with averted eyes.. He stayed ior a whole year in Edinburgh, and•seeing that his hopes of assistance front the great were vain, tetumed in deep anger and dis gust to Nitluidale„where he took a farm and•rnar ried'Jean Armor, and resolved , to be prudent and laborteris. But all his speculations regarding in dependence were doomed to be, unfortunate; he• was neither fortunate as a farmer, or successful as an officer of excise; he felt, as the world now-feels, MIMI Eli that his country had neglected him, and in the bit terness of disappointed hope, spoke too , freely about freedorn,,the natural dignity of geniwt;'''and the fame which ;talents bnng, composed with- the rani a king bestows. He was given to Under , atand that hie hopes of .preferment were hiasted, and his continning hui humble office depended on his , silence.

Who can remember the sweet sad poem of 4 , Righ. land Mary" without a gush of strongest feeling? or I.vho can read 'the "Lament far:Tames, Earl of Glencairn,' without dropping a tear of sympathy with Burns?— " Why did I live to see that day A day to me so full of woe ! 0! had I met the mortal shaft Which laid my benefactor low! The bridegroom may forget the bride Was made his wedded wife yesteeen ; The monarch may forget the crown That on his head an hour has been; The mother may forget the child That smiles so sweetly on her knee; But I'll remember thee, Glencairn, And a' that thou bast done for me. There are many fine passages in the "Cotter's Saturday Night," which are on my tongue, but I refrain from quoting them, to make room for the following admirable poem—a poem, which, while it will forever find an echo in the heart of every lover of humanity, was the cause of sore displea sure towards poor Burns, on the part of the Dum fries Aristocracy, and caused them to cut his acquaintance! Burns did not long survive their insults.

We call the attention of the la boring classes to it, especially those who have been co long imposed upon by the promises of whig menu lecturers. Doctor Johnson, in his life of Richard Savage, says of him, that he was ff a man of exalted senti ments, extensive views, and curious observations; a man whose remarks on life, might have assisted the statesman, whose ideas of virtue might have en lightened the moralist, whose eloquence might have influenced Senates, and whose delicacy might have polished courts." The young gentleman, whose name figures as the ostensible editor of the Commercial Journal, and the brilliancy of whose genius is equalled only by the morality and amiability of his conduct, lately in formed his intelligent and admiring readers,tbat there was a very marked resemblance between/I/nisei( and Richard &rags ! ! ; . The interesting, amiable, exemplary and moral young gentleman, %rho has discovered such s strong resemblance between himself and Rickard Saroge, and whose name decorates the pages of the Comnaen cm' Journal, as its ostensible Ore wish we could say rrsponsinfrieditnr,does us great injustice, in alleging that we either said or insinuated that he we, tees_ emits of writing the lending articles recently pub lished in the editorial columns of that paper, menda ciously assailing the Post and its editor, and solo mealy attacking the interests of et factory children," end the rights of labor." We never said or insinuated any thing of the Lind ; —on the contrary, we are firmly convinced, end once for all, Ira openly and grublicly avow and de. dare that, in our judgment, there fs nothing whatev er in the articles In question risme to, or in any de. tree indicating even a atm/focally of ability, of we may use the espressiono that would justify a sieve. iron of his not being their veritable author. We did: net say that he mild nal .ntt the articles in quer.

We have eliminate in oar paper of to-day, by a public sad esplicit avowal and deciaratma, ea deatared to relelve the mind of the oatenahle editor -of the Journal from the impreision under which he affected to labor, that we supposed him incapable or writing the leading articles which have recently ap. peared In the editorial columns of that paper attack ing the '" Post, " " the rectory girls," and the " rights of labor." Wo have there suede every et planation and amecide, on the subject, that could be reasonably expected. fiat still we think it pomade that It may not prove entirely sathitsctory ; and we shall therefore devote a few additional linea to a more comprehensive and particular view of the subject. In the Post of Thursday morning last, in view of an Incidental notice of the real or supposed writer of the articles in qnettion, we stated " that we were unwilling to prep the inquiry at present, as we lvonid not consent to furnish the enemies of the ing manes, whose rights we seek to Vindicate, with o pretext for drawing oft public attention from the true Inoue they had so imprudently forced upon our notice." And sure enough our inunntion secured tube aliron prophetic t for Immediately after, wo observed that the Journal and the hireling seribbler in whom we hare referred, received orders from their masters, the factory proprietors, to endeavor by all means, to draw off public notice sad attention 'from themselves, by directing it, if possible, into some or any other channel. They began to feel, these factory proprietors, how horribly unoomfurta. blew., their position in the public irn.r.onv in which we had placed them,—the merited objects of public scorn, contumely and contempt. And, accordingly, the Journal of Saturday last comes out with a thun dering article, in which we are denounced as a rc falsifier," in which the ostensible editor deelares that we •, cannot prove that we did , not write the leaders in question," and prop:Whir to furnish us with the opportunity of " taking depositions before a naagistrato, commencing with the conspirators and their legal advisera, and ending with Mr. Robert M, Riddle (the ostensible editor,) and persona in hie employ." Now, while we are determinedool to lose sight of the " true issue* , as it is presented, and equally de_ termined to keep the factory proprietiiis in the pil lory to Which they hare boon sentenced by-a just. and discriminating public judgment ; yet, the, pro. position of the Journal is too tempting to be entire. ly rejected.

' Nothing material has loccurred since my last date.

Within the lam three weeks we have certain ao counts of fifteen murders. In one instance an thrifts household of ten persons--a- respectable ranchero, • lair wife, two children, and aria armlets. The man, whore name was Reed, bad been successful in the - digging* during the summer, and had returned to his i i home, near Santa Barbara, Stith a large amount of 1 gold.

The mutinies, attended with teenier,' to which I 1 i alluded to in my letter No. 43, have been fully con i firmed, and--not without good reason—has caused much enearineas to ithippera of gold front this coast.
