- Apra, INS7'ITUTION. • WO. DAVY'S SECOND LECTURE ON GZOLQGY. In this Lecture Mr. DA tit described two species of cliaracters to be attended to in the study of Geology those which itistil.tied specimens of rocks pre sent, such as physical qualities, constithent parts, &c. the other, the aspect of rocks considered as great masses, or their general features, such as' outline from. colour, strAtifieAtion, &c. . • In the primary order of rock' he pointed one and described six clasies. These, he observed, included all tucks strictly belonging to this order. He exclu ded argillaceous and si,icious schist, because water worn stones or shells occur hi them, and the topaz Rock of Werner, as having more the appearance of pait of a vein. Granite, micaceous schist, scinite, ser pentine porphyry, and nimble are primary rocks.— All these arrangements ave,eonstituted by a few crystalline substances, which are principally quartz, feldspar, MICA, hornblend, tale,, and calcareous spar, Thus granite is an aggregate of crystal, of quartz, mica. ;and feldspar, and scinite of spiarti, feldspar, acid honiblend— micaceous tchist,..t quartz, and mi ca—serpentine, of skitter spar, talk and feldspar, con taining veins of steatite. The mechanical constituents of rocks are few; but their chemical elements ale-still less numerous. When subjiictedto analytical processes, they afford :ilex, alu snilia magnesia, lime, fixed alkali, and oxide of iron. These substances variously combined, give rise to the great variety of the forms and appearances of their chrystals—and Mr. Davy's late discoveries prove, that the earths and alkaties have metallic bases, and that they are compounds of these bases and oxygene. In the arrangetnent of the primary rocks a certain order and relationship is generally to be observed— granite is the highest and deepest rock, it forms the summit of the loftiest mountains, and seems to be the foundation of our continents, and islands, and is usually covered by geognies (itself a species of gra ttite),-micaceous schist, or sienite. Serpentine and marble occupy the middle stations of mountain chains, and are oftener found upon micaceous schist than upon granites. Porphyry is mostly associated with granite, and is frequently immediately incumbent upon it. The pri maryrocks constitute the principal solid part of the surface of otir globe, and form the loftiest mountains, • and their geographical position is admirably adapted to preserve the order and economy of the system. — The heights of mountains in general diminish from the equator towards the poles. In hot. climates the effects-of mountains are tolower the temperature of • the subjacent countries, and thus most of the tropical regions are rendered habitable. Where, mountains do net occur, as in Africa. there are sandy desares-- mountains too are the sources of streams and rivers, they attract clouds, condense vapour into water; and pour it into the rallies and plains—they modify the course of the winds, and shelter the lowlands. In all systems for explaining the formation of pri . mary rocks, a fluid state either from igneous, or itqueolis fusion is assumed, but it is not yet explained, Mr. Davy remarked, why different chrystals should ocoarate in the same mass. The chrystals produced either from solutions or by 5105 cooling in artificial Or natural operations are uniform, and nut of different Species, like these of the primary rocks, so that the • solution of this grand problem, if it be capable of so: lution, must be gained from the improvement of che mical science. Nature may produce effects by powers which have not, as yet been discovered, and her re sources should never be estimated by our operations. Mr. Davy, in the course of this lecture, mentioned the applications of the cubstancei derived from the different primary rocks, to the uses of common life, and particularly pointed mit their applications to the purposes . of Architectfire. Granites, porphyries, and swishes, are the most durable stones; micaceous schist anti serpentine, are much more liable to decay. The most perfect f the worts of the • Egyptians, those least injured by time, are of granite. This stone or porphyry should be used for all great public monu ments. Mr. Davy, in touching on this subject, said, be could not avoid introducing t few observations on the little attention paid to such public memorials in this great country. Yet, said he, Our materials are Copious ; our harvests of glory are na s' a rich, nay even more abundant than those of the gat elder nations. Why should Cie spirit be wanting' by which they are 'to be gathered in and made permanent ? We have bad philosophers who are the glory of the whole hu man race. IA eroes and Statesmen, rivals of the illus • trious of Athens and of Rome. Yet this metropolis offers no great durable tribute of respect to our science, , and our naval and military glory ; and in a thousand years, though there may ba a new and mare magni ficent city on the banks of ;he Thames, yet there will scarcely be a wall of what we new behold standing. 'Nothing to speak to posterity of what we are in these memorable times. In our Philosophy, the Guides ; in our Literature, the Instructor;; and, in our Poll tics, the Saviours of Europe; Nor would such works be devUid of immediate uti ' litr and beneficial efface. A few columns raised to the illustrious dead ; a few niticnial laboratories, or museums, devoted to the memory of great men, and to the use of students, would rise as land-rnarks of fame, would continually excite to excellence. No motive for exertion is so strong as that founded upon the sympathy of the good .ad wise ; n. a reward so sweet as that of being held up to public admiration, as a benefactor of the spe cies ; nu g;ory so pure, so calculated to awaken great .minds, as that of immortality! - - - Ma. DAV I.EC CURE. In this Lecture Mr. Davy described the secondary vntks, or the rocks containing fragments of the pri • wary substances, and the remains of organized beings. He divided these rocks into three families, and illus trated their nature and their arrangements by sped piens . audby paintings. The first Lundy, he stated, COntains nearly the. same elements ps the primary rocky It' comprehends the secondary granites, mica-1 eeous schists, sienitss , porPhyriesOcc. They differ from the primary rocks of the same name, by the occur. vence at fragnients, principally of water worn quartz, and :hey du not appear in considerable masses, bat in beds .or veins ; these rocks. are-much more abun dant in metallic ores -Than. ire primary rocks ; They awe not so proper for architectural purposes, being me decomposition, but. when deco ngesed they _ - • ' , I ___ -- - _II ssfrora'clays and earths 144 forth the,baSis of thei finest iloweelain, and which are applicable to otitatpste.. pnsrs id the arts. In this family no organic MUM have' #1 yet bet tt found. The second !amity of the Secondary Rocks, con tains the impressicma of marine ezuvix, less drystalline matter than the first flimily, and fragments in greater abundance ; it, is -composed of the argillaceous and silacions schists, the schistose porphyries, trapps, , ;trawickes and breciass The mechanical elements of ' all these rocks, inclependent of the fragMents they contain, arc principally feldspar, quartz, hornblende and chlorite ; feldspar serving as a cement to con nect the others together. The rocks of this family are variously associated with each other, and some times with limestone; the position of their strata is irregular, it is seldom horizontal or vertical, but ge nerally more or less inclined. Coal, without bitumen, is peculiar to this family. The third family, besides marine exuvin, contains the impressions of fishes and vegetables, and the re. mains of quadrupeds; it is also distinguished by an h^rizontal stratification, and by the uncrystalline ap pearance of most of its rocks, excepting basalts ; . shell limdtones, sand stones, shales, bituminous coal, and basalts belong to this family. Basalts are aggre gates of small crystals of hornblende and feldspar. Mr. Davy was of opinion that much remained to be learnt from chemistry respecting the formation of this family of rocks ; he chewed that all the phe nomena they present are not explicable on the sup position of the action of one simple cause; that tire or , water alone is insufficient, but that their joint agencies are more agreeable to the visible effects.—He introdu ced some observations on the tendency of geological speculations, when attempts are made to connect them with the truths of Revelation. He quoted Lord Bacon on the occasion, and urged the separation of divine I things from human. The ordinances of the CREATOR, ,he said, were not to be judged of by the fleeting opi nions of man ; their theories and their hypotheses are in continued fluctuation, and ehould therefore never be blended with that which is divine and immutable. —The secondAry rocks form the beds on which our fertile and cultivated soils are situated.. They are abundant in fossil coal, and in mineral veins, and they afford a number of substances connected with our I wants and - our comforts. They all exhibit proofs of the agency of powerful causes which destroyed and dissolved a considerable part of the ancient world ; and -which by successive operations of a lest perfect consolidation of its materials, in some cases almost assimilating .them to their original appear- , ances, but Always impressing on them the stamp of change, always constituting them monuments of the great destruction and renovation that took place in the obscure and early epochs of the history of nature. On Wednesday, the Ist instant, the BRITISH and Fonntow BITILE Society held their Seventh Anniver- Jaw; at. he Piece Masons' Tavern, Queen-street, Un .coln's-Inn-Fields. The Report was read, as usual, by Lord Teignmouth, the President ; and the thanks to his Lordship were moved in a very impressive Ad dress by the Bishop of Durham. The facts detailed ' in the Report, and in the Extracts of Correspondence with which it was followed, were peculiarly interest ing and satisfactory ; and evinced the successful ope ration of the Society in.the pursuit of its object over a large proportion of the world. It appeared, that besides the three great Societies to wliksh this Institu tion has given birth, on the European Continent, and the Corresponding Coinmittee in British India, it has I been instrumental in producing by its example or en cotiragement, sixteen similar Societies in the United I States of America. It appeared, also, that the So -1 ciety had made considerable progress in. the course I of the. last year in augmenting both its influence and I its funds; not less than Seventeen new Auxiliary So -1 cieties in Great Britain, among which is comprehend -1 ed one in the important town of Liverpool, having i been added to its list within that period. But for • particulars,. we must refer to the Report itself; which, with very copious Correspondence, List of Subscri bers, &c. will be speedily. issued from the Society's Depository, No. 169, Fleet-street. The Attendance at this Anniversary was very nu. merous, and highly respectable. Among the princi pal persons present, many of whom toot a share in the business Of the day; were, besides the President, the BishOps of Durham, Salisbury, Norwich, Cloyne, and Clonfcrt ; Lords Gambier, , Headley, and Har rowby ; Messrs. Wilberforce, Grant; H. Thornton, Babiogton, Vansittart, ?orcher, &c. and it was truly gratifying to• witness an Assembly, consisting of at feast eighteen hundred persons of different rants, and of almost every Christian denomination, evincing the greatest harmony, and the most lively interest in the truly benevelcnt purpose of sending forth the Holy Scriptures without Note or Comment—" to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people." The value of Dr. FRPIMAN'S GOTTA SALUTARIS has been so long proved, that nothing of the present day can hear a competition with it, in all the diffe rent stages of a certain Aiwa:, which it effectually cures and eradicates from the habit, without excitin; the painful feelings and exposure that attends saliva tion—withont debilitating the constitutiv , n in any de gree, or even requiring confinement from business or restriction of diet. 'ne radical virtues of these ines timable Drops have proved their claim to publ:c ap probation for more than 30 years. In all the debility of both sexes they prove a never-failing restorative— whether the deb;lity is produced by too free use of mercury, by illicit pleasures, or the effects of a warn) climate. To travellers and those going abroad, they cannot be recommended too strongly, as they will re ceive a safe, speedy, and complete cure, in all old stubborn gleets, and every weakness that affects the bladder and organs of urine. 'By its efficacy many women have become mothers, who for many years had been deprived of that happiness.—Sold wholesale and retail, at Mr. Butler's, No. 4, Cheapside, corner of Paternoster-row ; and retail, by Belam and Sharp, Portsmouth • Hall and Johnson, Gosport ; Album.

SOCIAL HAVTINIiSS; .hyrARRIAGE should be the foUndation of Social xv•A Hap lea which is often disturbed through the parties that form t union not taking those precautions which would se cure them the enjoyment of that grtat domestic blessing. People of every rank pay adoration to the shrine of wedlock; but where the coostitation has been tainted by disease, or debilitated by a certain habit contracted at an early age, a renovation of stability previous to entering that tome is indispensitsty requisite to revive the slumbering sparks of life, and to reanimate the system. For no disorders have contributed more Essentially to destroy Hyme neal happiness than those which are the consequence of unguarded pleasure. •It was this consideration which induced Messrs. CURRIE and Co. for these last twenty years, to direct their stu dies and practice exclusively to the treatment and cure of theVe- adbeal Disease, and the disorders arising therefrom ; as also to that derangement of the system, produced lay the destructive habit of the inconsiderate school-boy, which brings on those distressing Debilities and Deficiencies that prevent or embitter the Matri monial state.

It behovuievury vermin who has indulged in this soli -tiry vice to seek relief by consulting Professional men of emi nence and honour, to which Messrs. CURRIE and Co. claim the sanction of scholastic authority, as well as the testimony of uncentradicted facts. In professing the cure of *these complaints, they hold out no inducement to vice ; but sensible as all Men Must be of the existence of such calamhies, they offer their I assistance as regularly educated Members of the Royal Colleges of Surgeons of London and Edinburgh.
