straining or altering of the axis of the eyes ; and, by turning round, as they are removed from the axis of vision, they will disappear. So, indeed, will those of the second class, which are real objects converted into phantoms by mental excitement or disorder. But in the purely metaphysical ghost or phantom, the change of position or locality will not essentially dispel the illusion (the spectrum following, at it were, the motion of the eye); because it exists in the mind itself, either as a faint or transient idea, or a mere outline, fading perhaps in a brighter light, or as the more permanent and confirmed impression of insanity, (unchanged even by' brilliant glare,') or from the day-dream of the castle-builder, to the deep and dreadful delusion of the maniac.” From the few specimens we have given, it will appear that the author is not, for the most part, very choice as to the authenticity of his facts; nor indeed could he be so, when so large a part of his volume is put into the mouths of the upholders of the mysterious. The two great fulcra, indeed, upon which the supernatural is sustained, are erroneous fact, and the fallacy of perpetual inference from what may be, to what is. “Why may not" is a favourite formula with the imaginative; but reason teaches that the freedom from logical contradiction is not enough to found an affirmative assumption upon : not to speak of the great majority of cases, in which the question may be answered by an abundance of sound reasons to the contrary. There is a hopeless imbecility in the frequent use of this phrase, that should warn a sound intellect from even the attempt to enlighten its employer—the most appropriate reply is that of the vulgar adage respecting the abstract possibility of a pig's whistling.

From Shadwell and Limehouse Reach, and the days of Drake and Hawke, where we idled last week, Mr. Mackay, in his . Songs of the London 'Prentices and Trades,' conveys us to Cheapside and Fleet Street, and the days of Whittington and Moore. Mr. Halliwell's hero is a Tom Tuff or Tom Bowling-Mr. Mackay's a Jim Vin, a George Heriot, or George Barnwell. In short, “his subject is the City,” and the City Apprentices: For at the siege Tours in France They show'd themselves brave Englishmen; At Ballen, ioo, they did advance St. George's lusty standard then; Let Touraine, Tournay, and those towns That good King Henry nobly won, And of the deeds by them there done. Among Mr. Halliwell's heroines is a Female Sailor-among Mr. Mackay’s heroes a Ranting Rambler. These have been common with us of late; but as their doings have not been, as far as we know, commernorated in song, we extract • The Ranting Rambler,' from a broadside in the British Museum. The full title deserves transcription :-- " The Ranting Rambler; or, a Young Gentleman's Frollick through the City by night, where he was taken by the Watch, and sent to the Counter because he would not speak; and next day brought before my Lord Mayor, where his pardon was begged by my Lord's loving daughter.
