WINN. Aldeburgh, Suffolk. (To be continued.) POLITICAL VERSES BY CHARLES LAMB? THE following unsigned verses, which I recently lighted upon in The Morning Chronicle of November 25th, 1820, may be, I think, by Charles Lamb. It is well known that Lamb strongly sympathized with Queen Caroline, and that he was the author of several productions in verse which had a bearing on her case. The lines are such as Lamb might have written at that period of acute political controversy. They appeared also in The London Moderator, dated Novem- ber 29th, 1820, and in The Weeldy Dispatch of December 3rd, 1820. Wellington had voted (with Liverpool, Clarence, Montrose, Newcastle, Buckingham, and the rest of the peers who were on the side of George the Fourth) in favour of the Bill of Pains and Penalties with which the Government dared not proceed, as the Lords' majority for the third reading was only nine. Denman was one of the counsel for the Queen. He vas with Brougham and Dr. Lushington. Majocchi was the notorioiis " non mi ricordo " witness : LINES, ADDRESSED TO THE DUKE OP WELLINGTON. And is it to come to this ? Must WELLESLEY'S name Pass from its pomp a by-word and a shame ? Must the mere Courtier blot from glory's page The Warrior's deeds, the wonder of their age ? Was it for this you ran your rapid race, To sink at last in LIVERPOOL'S disgrace ? Was it for this your Ducal banners rose, To share your equal laurels with MONTROSE ? With NEWCASTLE to prove your wisdom's zeal ? With modest BUCKINGHAM to think and feel ? And (O ! consummate bliss to human pride !) To sit, and vote with CLARENCE by your side ?
