 ABUSE 01“ THE ROYAL BOUNTY.

When we see such names as those of Thomas Moore, the author of
" Little's Poems,” “ The Fudge Family,” “ ’l‘om Crib's Memorial,”
tie, and of Miladi Morgan, néc Owenson, the writer of works to
which, for the sake of her sex, we will not particularly allude—when
we sec such names stuck on the Pension List by Ministers, as reci—
pients of public bounty to the enormous amount of £300 per annum
each—we turn with heart—sickening disgust from these proofs of Trea-
sury profligacy, to contenmlate the humiliating contrast presented to
us in the fact that Sir Egerton Brydges, a man who devoted his high
intellectual powers andattaiuments to the improvement of our national
literature, and the cultivation and eneou 'agement of a pure, refined,
and exalted national taste in literary pursuits—a man who sacrificed a
noble fortune to the hope of thus benefitting society—a man of birth,
talent, education, and, what was more than all, and above all, a man
of unimpeachable moral worth ; yet was he suffered to linger out the
declining years of a valuable. life. in exiled penury, and the last hours
of his existence were embittered by the certainty that he left his wife
and children “ ‘teeped to the very lips in poverty"—such poverty that
a private suh. iption has been raised for their relii . Surely, sure 7'
this V'ilS a case in which it' ever a pension could worthily he considered
as the reward of severe literary toil, it should have been granted ; and
yet from him it was withheld. But we can little wonder that such a
man found no l'avour in the eyes of Ministers who could select Tom
Moore and Lady Moreau as tit and proper objects for the exercise
of a Protestant Sovereign's bounty. Sir Egerton Brydges had one
fault inexpiable in their eyes—he \vas a stcdl'ast Conservative.

But, again, in the streets of London we are daily grieved to see such
a man as Tom Dibdiu, whose talents have contributed upwards of one
hundred and titty excellent dramatic productions to the rational amuse-
ment of the public, and whose loyal songs have long been deservedly
popular—a man of irreproachahle private character—the descendant,

’ too, of Charles Dibdin, our unrivalled naval song-writer, whose very
name gives his family strong claims upon the sympathy and generous
protection of the British GovernInent——when we uch a man bend-
ing, not only beneath the weight of age, but of privation and sulfcring
iu the winter of his days, we cry shame upon the. Ministers who could
leave such worth and talent neglected, whilst Thomas Moore, with
£700 a year of his own, and Lady Morgan, with the competence earned
by her own Ineretricious scribblings, and by her husband in his drug-
shop, are saddled on the public purse for six hundred pounds a year '.
