As soon as he got the sank of Major,. Ilea*. tired upon 'half-pay,..and devoting himself: toadeep play for ever after, .hepursued. - it with. an eagerness and perseveranceheyond esarpp)e.

He went to the East Indies in 1780, on a gaming speculation ; but not finding it anssver, he. retnrned borne over land. At Grand Cairn he, narrowly escaped-cleash, by retreating in a Turkish dress,to Smyrna. A com panion of his was seized and sent prisoner to Constan tinople, where hf W2s it, lend! released by the, in terference of Sir R.:Ainsley, the English Ambassa dor. He min E 6006 of Mr. 0. , some rears ago t at Spa, 4,14 irnnieclia;tly came, to England to get ;he money from Lord 0. the father,ofththfoung • Terms of accommodaticut were_proposed by his Lord ship,. tbe.presenre tha „Bait*, ,whose :respectability and consequence are w4known,Lord. ,0 : of:fere d him a thou san d g u i neas , and a note .hand for the remainder at a distant period.

He was a man of a determined mind, great penetrat tion' and considerable literature ; and when play was oat of the case, could be an agreeable and instructive companion. Ile was very generous to people whom he liked ; and a certain Naval Lord, highly respected, when in rather a distressed situation at Paris, some years a . go, found a never-failing resource in the purse of the Major. He lived at Palls several years in the greatest splendour. His countenance was terrible, though his appearance and manners cc ere gentleman like. While he lived at Avignon he frequently gave splendid suppers to the Duke and Duchess of Cumber land and their friends.

JAMES'S POWDER IS acknowledged to be the greatest discovery in Medicine during the last Century. In cases of Fever it will often effect a cure in a few hours, especially when freely given and at the outset of the disease. It is administered with equal success in all attacks of Measles, St. Anthony's Fire, Sore Throat, Pleurisy, and Rheumatism ; but as Colds and Catarrhs partake more or less of inflammatory symptoms, this Powder is pecu liarly efficacious in cutting short their duration ; which however harmless they may be thought, often terminate in Pulmonary Affections, the fatal consequences of which are but too well known. As an Alterative in Chronic Diseases, it is an ad mirable remedy. _ _ _ FOUR HUNDRED ACRES .

TREATY OF LEOBEN.—Among the various objects of Nature and Art which arrest the traveller's atten tion in Styria, not the least interesting is the re cord of BONAPARTE'S early prowess which stands in the little garden of M. d'Ecx.mvALD, at . Leohen. It was in this town that, after his armies had sustained a signal defeat, the Emperor of GERMANY found himself obliged to accept whatever terms the con queror was pleased to dictate, and the notable Treaty of 1797 was the consequence. It was signed in the above garden, where, to perpetuate the event, a small square monument has been erected, having on the top a figure of the Angel of Peace sounding a trum pet. Each of the four sides bears a Latin inscription, which is subjoined in the regular order : I.

CURIOUS REASON FOR ADMIRATION,--A traveller mentions, that of all modern heroes, the Duke Of WELLINGTON is the most popular in China.; that, e ih is said, results not from the victories obtained by this Nobleman, for about the battle of Waterloo the qbt j nese know but little, and care:still . less ; it is the'tilme of the Noble Duke that pOssesses such a.Charm to the ears of his admirers; it sonndi..and it is pro hatinced, very much like a wor4 of eltiorsc origin— Wee-ling-tong.

ANECDOTE OF CYPRIAN.—.III6 Divine conducted himself at the Court of Frederick 111. Duke of Gotha, as if he had been a Lutheran Poi e, and was prone to interpose in State affairs. Frederick's consort, Louisa Dorothea, Princess of Saxe-Meiningen, was aware of the impropriety and danger of this interference, and used all her influence to weaken that of the Divine. She succeeded ; but Cyprian revenged himself for it openly in the pulpit, by a play on words : for when speaking once on the different opinions of the world, he exclaimed several times, " All evil comes from Meiningen," .(which in German signifies opinion).— Indeed, although the Duchess fulfilled all the duties of a virtuous Princess, she was no favourite with the Clergy, Who took every occasion to display their d:s. like. Once, for*example, when the Duchess was in the confessional chair, the Confessor addressed.her in the following, words :—" Most serene,. most gracious Duchess ! Preat,•gi eat, illustrious—Sinner !" THE SILENT .SPEAKEIL—As the brozircr of the proud Duke of SOMERSET, who then filled the Chair in the House of Commons, was returning from Bath, his carriage was interrupted on the road by the neg.' ligence and audacity of a west country waggoner. Indignant at the ir.sult, he jumped out of his car. riage and began to lay about him with his gold headed cane upon the head of the waggoner, who, in his turn, soon plied his long -whalebone whip so sharply, that hii Honour was glad •to retter, ex claiming—m Villain! do you know whq I am Noa,".replierl the west country flogger : " who be'st, after all?" " Why, sirrah, I am the Speaker 1" " Then why didn'sz thee speak before P THE DEVIL AND Da. FAUSTUS.—" The tradition of the Devil and Dr. Faustus ! , was derived from the odd circumstance in which the Bibles of the first printer, Fusttor Faust) appeared to the world. When he had discovered this new art, and printed off a considerable. number of copies of the 13iWe to imitate those which were commonly sold iu manuscript, ha undertoOk the sale of them at Paris. It was his ill terest to conceal this discovery, and to pass off his priniii copies for manuscripts. But as he-was ena bled to sell his Bibles at 60 crowns, while the other scribes demanded 500, this created universal astonish ment; and still more when he produced copies as fast as they were waned, and evt n le:ed his p; ice. Thil made a great sensation at Paris. The th Ink increased y of the copies the wonder. Infor; tions were given to the Magistrates against him magician ; his lodgings were searched, and a ! number of copies being found, they were seize The red ink—and Fust's red ink is peculiarly liant—which embelliSlied his copies, was said ti his blood ; arid it was solemnly adjudged that hi in league with the Devil !
