Numbers Sirteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, and Nineteen, of the Vocal Works of Handel; wib a separate Accompaniment, arranged for the Organ er Piano-forte, by Dr. Clarke, of Cambridge. Each Number 6s, 62.

I

N the present four Numbers of this inasterly and useful arrangement of Handel, we find a considerable portion of the Oratorio of the Messiah. Of the excellence of the former Numbers we have already spoken so fully, and all these before us so completely keep pace with them, that it would be superfluous to expatiate on their merits. The title page to the above Oratorio demands, however, our particular notice. It is an half-length of Christ bearing the Cross; and engraved by Taylor, from an original of Carlo Dolci, in the possession of Mr. S. I. Button. The execution is critically faithful, and admirably expressive; and at once calls our attention to

the talents of the artist, and the liberality of the publishers.

"O Dolce Concento;" a favourite Air, by Mozart. Arranged with Variations, for the Pianoforte and Flageolet, or Flute, by John Parry, Editor of the Welch Melodies,) and performed by bim and Mr. F. Lanza, to whom it is dedieated by the Author. 35.

Mr. Parry, in the form in which he here presents to the public the favourite air of " Dolce Concento," has displayed much variety of fancy, and considerable knowledge of the powers and characters of the instruments for which he writes, and of the effects that may result from their judicious combination. With so much ease and freedom are the parts blended, that it is but just to say the whole adaptation, or arrangement, carries with it much of the air of original composition, and evinces a facility and happiness that particularly qua lify Mr. Parry for efforts of this kind. A new Grand Sonata, for the Piano-forte. Composed and dedicated to Mr. Charles Burnett, by Thos. Powell. 58.

This sonata, which is accompanied with parts for a flute, or violin, and a violoncello, (ad libitum) and separately printed; possesses much spirit of conception, variegated by considerable tenderness of expression, and recommended by no trivial degree of novelty, both in the ideas themselves and the order in which Mr. Powell's taste has arranged them. The accompanying parts are constructed with judgment, evince an intimate acquaintance with the charac

sen.

"O Come to the Dale;" a favourite Song, sung by Miss Stephens. Composed with an Accou paniment for the Pianoforte, by John Whitaker. 25.6d.

With this ballad we

pleased: the melody possesses what we are greatly do not meet with every day-a distinct as well as engaging character, and will not, we venture to predict, fail to please all lovers of simple and original air. The Cuckoo; a Divertisement Pastorelle, for the Piano forte, in which is introduced the favourite the Cuckoo. Composed by M.P.King, of esq. 2s. 6d.

Air

This divertisement, in which Mr. King has introduced Dr. Arne's favourite air of "When daisies pied" consists of three movements; and is both ingeniously and tastefully arranged. The different sections of the piece are judiciously con trasted; and the general effect, we feel convinced, will prove universally plea sing.

A Rondo, on the Chord of the Seventh; shewing the immediate progression of that Chord to all the Twelve Major and Minor Keys, by d.F.C. Kellman, Organist of bis Majesty's German Aba, pel.

The

The construction of this rondo is ingenious as curious, and well serves to illustrate the author's meaning. composition is preceded by examples of the interrupted cadence, the perfect cadence, and the resolution on the sumie fundamental note.

"Poor Mary;" a Ballad, as sung by MrAshe, (for whom it was written.) Composed by Dr. Clarke, of Cambridge. 25. "Poor Mary," is a ballad, the melody of which, for its easy flow and graceful expression, does much credit to the taste of its composer. The accompaniment is arranged with that skill which Dr Clarke

easy simplicity of the words, and well calculated to promote the laudable intens tion of their author.

"Hymn to the Virgin," selected from the popular Poem of the Lady of the Lake. Writen by Walter Scott, esq. and composed for a Sopran voice, with an Accompaniment for the Harp or Piano-forte, by Henry Bishop. 2s. 6d.

The melody of this hymn is highly ap propriate and expressive. The accompaniment is elaborate and elegant, and the general effect, such as only the efforts of a real master can produce.

"The Italian Momfrina," an Original Air. Ar ranged as a Rondo for the Piano-forte, by Mr. Holst. is. 6d.

This is a pleasing little production; calculated to please the general ear, and improve the finger of the juvenile prac titioner.

T seems idle to state what every one

It seems that catarria is at present a very prevalent complaint; neither is it necessary to say any thing about the treatment of a species of indisposition which there are few who do not think themselves competent to manage without professional assistance. The reine dies for it are principally negative, and confined in a great measure to the avoid ing of variations of temperature, but more especially an exposure to a heated one, and an abstinence from every thing that is stimulating in articles of diet.

The Reporter has lately had occasion to prescribe for a female patient, who laboured under frequent returns of spasmodic affection, attended with an almost entire prostration of spirits and of strength. The present lamentable condition of her frame seems to have been produced by a habit of taking opium in the form of tincture. It was originally begun with a view to relieve bodily pain, and has since been continued whenever it was necessary to compose irritation to animate languor, or to elevate depression. It would be well if laudanum, which has insensibly become a part of the habitual

gumen of many hypochondriacal inva

lids, who have often been rendered in

curably such by this circumstance, were never used, unless under the especial sanction of professional authority. And it may at least be doubted whether even the sanction of professional authority be not in general too carelessly and too lightly lent to the employment of a drug, the application of whose extraordinary powers ought to be reserved for occasions of proportionate emergence.

The writer of this article has at present under his care an obstinate case of chorea, or what is vulgarly denomi nated St. Vitus's dance.* The com plaint in this instance had been preceded, as is not uncommon, by attacks of epilepsy. In convulsive affections of this and of most other kinds, the cold bath and steel, with a due attention to the state of the bowels, may be re. garded as the cardinal remedies; and

*It is remarkable that St. Vitus is no where to be found in the calendar of Romish superstition. The mistake has probably arisen from some misunderstanding or inaccuracy of manuscript, by which chorea invita, or involuntary dance, the original and genuine name of this disease, was read and copied chorea st. Viti.

although

although not uniformly successful, are more likely than any other ultimately to prove so. The cold bath and steel seem to have an invigorating faculty, almost peculiar to thetaselves in most, at the same time that they are by no means admissible in all, cases of debility or relaxation.

It is well worthy of remark, that the particular virtues of these invaluable remedies were known to practitioners of the most distant antiquity. Melampus, a Greek, one of the earliest who attempted to treat diseases, is said, by the employment of the cold bath, with the help only of an aperient medicine, to have restored the daughter of Poetus king of Argos; and afterwards he is related to have cured Iphiclus, one of the heroes who attended Jason on his Argo. nautic expedition, of a most deplorable species of debility, by giving him the rust

of iron in wine.

The most hopeful circumstance attending the case of chorea above alluded to, is the youth of the patient. In chorea, epilepsy, and mania, the early or advanced life of the subject of them is the circumstance upon which we principally

rest our opinion with regard to the ultimate result. This remark more especially applies to the last and worst of these diseases. In the evening twilight of life it is especially difficult, even if it be pos sible, to heal a wounded or reduce a dislocated understanding, in a manner that will ensure for any length of time its soundness or stability: like the frag ments of broken porcelain, which may be so carefully put together as to assume the appearance of integrity, but which will fall to pieces again upon the slightest touch, or even a vibration of the sar rounding atmosphere.

A cure that is radical has scarcely ever been effected in the instance of a greyheaded maniac. The combination of insanity with old age seems to be almost indissoluble. The disorder of the facul ties is not likely in such a case to be remedied, except by their total extinction. The agitation of mind can be expected to subside only in the onlin of death, or in the inoffensive quiet of idiocy, or idea less superannuation. J. REID,
