The original plan and superior execution of this School Book baying secured the patronage of the first Seminaries in every part of the Empire, it has in consequence excited the rivalry of ether Compilers, whose Inability to imitate with success may be in ferred from their paucity of invention. Justice to the original pretensions of this Work, renders it incumbent therefore on its author to guard conductors of Schools against servile and inferior works which may be obtruded on them on the same approved plan, but greatly inferior in matter and execution.

KING CNAILLieII MAIRTYNDOM.....IIIOIIday at the Stook Etabange. INSURRECTION IN PARIS. Private letters are in town from the French coast, of the date of Wednesday. They state that the Barriers of Paris had been shut during three days in the week preceding, and that every possible pre caution had been taken to prevent any intelligence from reaching the Departments from the Capital. It was,however, generally known, that there were serious disturbances every night at all the Theatres in Paris, and that in consequence three of them, namely, the Theatre Feydeau, Theatre du Vaudeville, Rue de Chartres, and the Theatre des Varietes, Boulevards Montmartre, had been shut up. A great number of unhappy persons (mostly females), relatives of those who had perished in Russia, were shot while besieging the doors of the Office of the Minister at War, to obtain information respecting their unfortunate mili tary friends. Since this infernal massacre, an appa rent tranquillity had been restored, and large pa troles of cavalry occupied the principal meets, who were directed to disperse every group of persons ex ceeding two in number. The extent of the French loss in Russia had been made known with great assiduity, by means of pla cards chalked on the walls. It was whispered in Paris, that Prince EUGENE BEAUHARNOIS, during the retreat from the Berezyna, had snapped a pistol at BONAPARTE. He was immediately put under sur veillance, and declared to be insane ! No person knew what had since become of him. He was regarded as a young man of an amiable character. Our Readers will recollect, that a few weeks ago a State Prisoner passed through some part of Prussian Poland, on his way to a fortress in Silesia.—Was this the Son-in law of BONAPARTE ? It appears from the information communicated from time to time by the much lamented Lord TYR. CONNEL, to his friends is this country, that the hor rors attending the retreat of the French from Mos cow, far exceeded any idea which the official details of the French or Russians have been calculated to excite. However singular it may appear, it is ne vet theless true, that whole regiments of cavalry, men and horses, were frozen to death in march ing order ! It was no uncommon occurrence for mounted patroles, or advanced guards, to be ar rested in their progress in this manner, regularly as the files ascended the brow of a bill or other exposed situation ! As to the infantry, they were generally found in heaps of several hundreds at a time frozen to death, generally under the shelter of any eminence which lay is their route—they were all without arms or ammunition, and had neither boots,shoes nor stock ings, but the clothes of their dead comrades generally furnished them with clumsy coverings for the extremi ties. The fetlock joints of the horses of the 44 Sacred Squadron" and Imperial Guards, and of those which drew the carcase of BONAPARTE in the sledge, were secured in this manner. They were fed upon the slender allowances of coarse bread which were found in the haversacks of the deceased men and officers, to collect which, parties were regularly sent out the instant that the bivouac for the day or night was taken up. The human beings who composed the remains of the retreating army were not allowed to touch a morsel of bread ! Their food generally consisted of the entrails of the dead horses, and it was only the officers of-high rank who were indulged with pieces of horseflesh which had been previously roasted,— The fires kept up during the bivouacquing, were usually made of tumbrils, baggage-waggons, and gun-carriages, with now and then the dead bodies of such men or horses as lay within their reach. Among other interesting anecdotes related by Lord TYRCONNELL, the following is absolutely without pre cedent in military annals. We have met with similar incidents it is true, but it was in the regions of ro mance :—His Lordship happened to be in a position upon which the enemy were advancing. The cavalry had just come in sight with a tolerably quick pace, when they appeared to be arrested and fixed in their places as it were by magic. The leader of the corps, horse and men, stopped short, and all in the rear stopped with him. Their continuance for a consi derable time in this situation, induced a suspicion of the cause. His Lordship and several others went up to this corps of cavalry, when they found all stiff, and frozen to death. It would seem that the Captain or leader of this small corps continued to move until he became quite exhausted, and that as soon as the motion which enabled his followers to keep up with him ceased, the cold laid its leaden hands upon them, and fixed them immoveable to the earth. COMMODORE RODGERS AND HIS SQUADRON! By the subjoined letter, we are incline] to believe that this great champion of maritime rights is now on his way to a British port.—Bon voyage 1 •• SCILLY, JANUARY 26. •• Arrived the Flying Fish, Captain FROUD, from St. Michaels', bound to London—sailed 10th instant, and on the 12th tell in with Commodore RODGER'S squadron, consisting of three frigates and two brigs ; was within gun-shot of one of the frigates, but being a fast sailer, she escaped. On the 15th fell in with a British squadron of three sail of the line and two fri gates, to whom Captain FROUD gave the information of the Americans, and they immediately went in chace, and he has no doubt but our ships would fall in with them." We subjoin two most important documents on the subject of the great question at issue between Mini sters and the East India Company. The principal object in the view of Government seems to be, in the first instance, that of giving encreased facilities to the importation of rice, a measure which certainly promises the most beneficial consequences to the pa pulation of this country. Every home cargo is to be made up of threw fourths rice, and one-fourth India goods; and although the out-ports may export, the importations are confined to the Port of London. We are glad to find, that a most deserving class of men, the Captains of regular Indiamen, are to enjoy the exclusive privilege of carrying passengers to and from India. There is, in short, a spirit of conciliation through out the whole of the subjoined articles, whic h cannot fail to have due weight upon - all temperate men, however they may conceive their interests to be affected " Treasury Chambers, January 20, 1813. _ _ " GLNTLIIMU4—Having laid before the Lords Commissioners of his Majesty's Treasury your Report of the tith January, I X, transmitting (according to the directions of this Board) a copy of the Rules and Regulations which seem to you expedient, and well-suited to be sent to the principal out-ports of the kingdom, for the information and guidance of such merchants as may be i desirous of embarking in a trade to the East Indies, with a view of importing rice from thence,—l am commanded by their Lord ships to acquaint you, that they approve of the said Regulations, and do not consider it as necessary to restrain the vessels in ques ' tion, under all the circumstances of the case, from Importing ' East •India prohibited goods to be sold for exportation at the 'sales of the East-India Company; and I am to desire, that you will communicate the above Rules and Regulations to the mer chants at the several out-ports forthwith.

This elegant and accomplished scholar died, in the prime of life, at his residence in Chelsea, on Thurs. day afternoon. He had been recently called to the Bar, and had already given proofs that he would have risen into high eminence in the profession. la. deed, the zeal with which he devoted himself to his various professional pursuits hastened, if it did rot bring on, the disorder which put a period to his exis. tence. As a classical scholar, and nervous and ele. gant writer, he has left few equals. His letters under the signature of ig Galgacus," first printed in the STAR, have not been surpassed by any political writings since the days of Junius, with this difference, that the tendency of the former was to rouse, while that of the latter was to depress, the energies of the nation. In private life Mr. YORKE was distinguished for a benevolence of disposition, a liberality of sentiment, and openness of character which fall to the lot of few, and his company has coerted by men of all parties. He has left an amiable wife and a nonsetous infant family to lament and to feel his loss.
