ADVERTISEMENT. THE Editor of the Poetical Register once more begs leave to thank his correspondents for their assistance, and the Public for the patronage which his work has received. The ninth volume, being the volume for the years 1812 and 1813, will be published on the first of next January, and the tenth volume on the first of the following June. The Editor will, therefore, feel obliged, if his correspondents will transmit their communications as early as possible. He requests that the word "Fugitive" may be marked on such compositions as have appeared in print before; and he will esteem it a favour, if those who send more than one composition will write only on one side of the paper. Contributions should be addressed to the Editor, to the care of Messrs. Rivingtons. CONTENTS. ORIGINAL POETRY. WA ATLINGTON Ode. The Capture of Bagdad. By Eyles Irwin, Esq..... L'Amour Timide.
