THE rEcToiCif YEfifi. - Experience has proved this medicine to be the most salutary and efficacious ren.cdy for Colds, Coughs, Catarrhs, and Asthmatic Affections. By promoting gentle expectoration, it almost instantly removes slight and recent colds ; and a very few doses are generally suffi cient to overcome those which from neglect have assumed a more serious character, and are also accompanied with cough. Being peculiarly adapted to girt freedom to respiration, it is the most effectual medicine in asthmatic complaints, shortness of breath, hoarseness, wheezinp, soreness and obstructions of the breast and lungs, and all the Wad symptoms which attend the beginning of consumptions; and if taken in time. will prevent this fatal'dls ease !

Mr. Newsham gave him a shilling, and was going on. when the fellow set up a shrill whistle, and in a minute he was joined by three others, who surrounded Mr. Newsham, and with many threats demanded his money. The affrighted Gentleman pulled out his purse. containing 71. In notes, and a diurnal* ring, and a gold watch and seals, which he handed to the ruffians. entreating that they would not harm him.

SCULPTURE Mon* sennight Mr. FLoSa4PIs, B.A. the Profes sor of Sculpture, &livered his First Lecture for the seasou. It eonthsted in a general introductory view of the iMmess of the art in ancient and modern times. Professor observed, that in rude times, before the art of printing was known, and for a con siderable time after, the has-relievo ornaments on churches formed the great source of instruction to the people ; and that even at this day many thousands in zza Catholic countries derive their chief infor mation from them. The Professor, in alluding to the advantages afforded to Students at the Academy, tnentiodat the valuable Collection of Casts pi esented to it by the Prince Regent, and expressed great sa tisfaction at the restoration of the Origir.als to the Room States, where they had been raised, at a great expense,. from the earth, under which they had been bun t:op t The diseotcry of the edebrated alo saic, eo ending the battle of the Centauoresd Llpithe, and the lntons and Sea Monsters, had me re ' cost 30,0001. sterling. Mr. l'oszu was in the Chair, and the Lecture was well attended. 1 On Thursday night Mr. FLAXMAN delivered his Second Lecture. He commenced his discourse by stating that his inquiry would be directed to theori gin of Sculpture in Greece. This was at, first sa i d to be confined to the rude representation in stone and wood of the twelve divinities then worshipped. Ex amples of these figures would be found in ancient bronze, in their best finished state, they had a diadem round the head, on which theit was a sort of engra ving like that on the tomb of Agamemnon • t' e arms were fixed downwards, close to the side c:f the body, and the legs close together. About 1::00 years before the Christian era, Sculpture began to attract universal attention ; and Daedalus, the fnuaill of Theseus, is described by Diodorus Siculus, by Pau . - sanias, and others, as a distinguished artist; of his style, some idea may be formed from the small bronze figures in the British Museum, representing the naked Hercules advancing with the right arm ready to strike, and on the left the shield of the lion's skin. This shewed that energy and strong feeling were stu died in those early ages in the statues of which these figures must be copies. The early Greeks employed theists in the representation of their choruses. Pau sanias saw the celebrated statue of Minerva, by Da.- dalus; from which the Greek coins are taken ; but it must be observed, that though they gave energy to their figures at this period. they wanted distinctive and characteristic expression ; their figures had ad the same faces, and were only distinguishable from each other, their Jupiter by his thunderbolt, the Nep tune by the trident, and the Hercules by the bow and i pulp. After the'burning of Athenoby Xerxes, 'Pericles empllbied Phidias to work at an 4 superintend the rt edifying the city. The superior. i emu's of this gre-t artist as a painter before he practised sculpture, gave a softness and delicacy to his Fig ure s, om whicii soon established a style very different that it pre. ceded, and which was stiff rather than dignified, and the drapery arranged rather in geometric lines than in the simple form and beauty of nature. The Pro fessor here quoted the splendid testimony borne to Phidias and his works by Pliny, Quintillian, and other writers. The magnificent temple dedicated to 11.- nerva, at Athens, from which the Elgin Marbles were taken, would immortarise his fame. Here the Pro fessor described the dimensions of the pediments, and the different allegorical subjects of which the b.s relievos consisted - ; such as the mythological proces sions, the contests between the Lapit h e and Centaurs, and concluded his discourse by observing, that it took ages entirely todestroy the genius of grace in the arts—it did not lose its graces until the time of the Antonines—it preserved much of its character in the fifth and sixth centuries, when the breaking of images obliterated its works ; and even until the overthro a of Constantinople, the little islands of Greece were celebrated for some perfection in small works ;—this taste sill subsisted in the Christian era in those scat -s, from the Scriptural embellished missals at present its existence. On Monday evening Mr. FLAJCMAN delivered his Third Lecture upon Sculpture, to a crowded audience; many Royal Academicians were present, and Itlr. Feseti was in the Chair.—The relation which the arts of design hear to all the branches of know ledge, and the powerful illustrations they afford, were first considered. They were the arts of design, which enlivened early ages with the first dawn of knucw ledge, and which poured a fuller blaze upon succeed ing generations. The Professor commented upon the subjects in which the arts would be most advan tagecusly employed ; and this would appear to Le (in the words of Socrates) the human form, animated by the human soul. The great powers that the an., cients possessed in expressing actual life in stone, were displayed S in the ar.imals of the Popes Museum, and rficrfe particularly in the horses of the Elgin Marbles. The state of art among barbarians was noticed, - and the first rude attempts at expressing that form, which 'they did not completely understand The Lenn i e./ Professor then went through the rise and progress of Sculpture in antiquity, from the rode and still figures of the earliest ages to the splendid works of Phidias % in the time of Pericles, and concluded his observa tions by pointing out the imperfect perspective in the drawings of the ancients, and referring for a proof of this defect to Vitrueius, and the work called Euclid's Optics, but which was in fact a collection and compilation from those who preceded him. By the modern' improvement, such as was exemplified by Michael Angelo, a depth in perspective was given greatly superior to the drzwing in this respect of the ancients. Through this imperfection the drawings of the architectural works of antiquity were too often incorrect and inadequate tar the display of their beatitiv..—The Lecturer was greeted, at his conclu sion, by land anddeserved applausefrom the tku4ents. published, in 6 vols.l3volfiCe 31:34 boards, The Fifth Edition :ellaneous WORKS of TOBIAS SMOL• M.D. with Mgmcnas of his Lan and Wsurts:cs, us of Oanntat Emus. y ROBERT ANDERSON.
