He sets out with relating the treatment which he met with from the Oaken of the Customs at I Harwich. "On debarking," he says, "at Harwich, we experiences' an instance of vexation, which we were vary far from being prepared to meet with in this land of liberty. We wore ignorant that in ling' Ind the impotence of books is, like that of the most common articles, sub ject to a duty, according to their weight, and amounting to several pence per pouts' avoirdupois. We had brought with us half a dozen enormous folios, destined to receive between their leaves the products of our herbaria:talons.

DOWN to the present time there has been undue delicacy in rendering the principles of CIVIL LIBERTY a distinct branch of Education ; and instruction on these important subjects has been considered incompatible with prejudices artfully kept alive by corrupt interests now contemned by the whole nation. There are, however, innumerable Parents, who would desire to have their Sons inspired with principles which are the glory of Englishmen,—and many enlightened Schoolmasters who would be happy to introduce this national subject to their Pupils. _ _ _ With regard to Ireland, Mr. Schulties saye—" I often enquired of the English hoer it happened that the botany of a large island in the Immediate vicinity of Great Britain wee lees known to them than that of Greenland and Iceland ? All the answer I could pt was, that he land was a country of ee'se. I was assured that a traveller would 601 la greater safety among savages than on the western coast of Trebled.— The ill.will between the English and Irish continues to increase a bat the causes which have produced this feeling, and will long matinee to maintain it, ought not se be discussed in a work devoted to botany.-- Whatever may be the reams, Deland and Sardinia are hitherto ferret inotpsiie, considered as provinces of the Empire of Flora." This browillerie with the Harwich °Ricers does not prevent Mr. Schuitess from doing justice to the politeness and hospitality which be experienced on the pert of Sir J. Z. Smith, and other distinguished naturalism of England. With regard to the former he says: "He hastened to stew us the treasures of his collection; treasures so well selected, and of such great value, that never, perhaps, did say man possess their equivalent. But the manner in which this respectable l eeward knows how to use his wealth, the induence of his rank, end the consideration which he enjoys, makes every favour that fortune has be stowed upon him. available for the public benefit. Besides the charms of the reception he gave us, and his conversation, we had the *saute of finding in his possession scene books from the Library of Liman*, the margins of which were covered with notes in the handwriting of that immortal naturalist, several unpublished manuscripts of the same author, his Herbal, such as it was at Upsal, in the same eases, and kept in equally good order, though its antiquated ferias exhibited a singular contrast with the elegance of the Botanical Museum of Sir E. Smith. The insects, shells, and minas* which decorated the ea hinet of . the Swedish naturalist, are placed by the side of his Herbal, and preserved wilt the same vegetation. Malsomets tomb is not more respected at Mecca than the colleen*** of Malmo are at Norwich. Providence grant that these precious relics may ever be reserved with equally religious regard. Unfortunately, their present possessor will leave no posterity. How could the inhabitants of the Continent suffer such treasures to be carried away. to pass the ems, and to fall Into the hands of the Britons, detached frown the rest of the world— **, disjus . selos orbs Brilantaos t Few Botanists have the means of making a pilgrimage to England to we these objects of their worship—.

As we must wait a long time before a botannical congress shall have been convoked, to listen to the wishes of the friends of science, and to prepare the asses of realiidng them, we shall offer a proposition, the adoption of which would mitigate a Hide the regrets of those who can. not enjoy the pleasure of seeing the collection of Lineman. Our wish is, that In all the cities in which botany is cultivated, the herbal of the great master should be faithfully reproduced, composed of the same plants, and carefully confronted with the original ; and that to this principal collection there should be added duplicates of those which we owe to Pallas, Thueberg, Humboldt, Az. The good Sir J. E. Smith would readily do every thing In his power to promote the execu tion of this project." The author then enlarges ea the advantage which would result from this plan, by removing the dowbtsand difetul ties encoding botanical denripthos, from the want of ready access to a standard of reference as to the Linnean nomenclature. Alluding to the exclusion of Sir J. E. Smith font the botanic chair in the University of Cambridge, in consecrates of his being a dissenter, M. Schultess says—" Such a refusal would have Impressed an lade. lible stigma on a German University, and could only have been ex pected from such a man as the Bishop of Hermopolia, when be was grand master of the liniverity of Paris. All the writings of the Presi dent of the Linnean Society attest his respect for religion ; but not con curring upon some points with the pro-reeler, it would be dangerous to confide to him the botanical lectureship at Cambridge ! Could it ever have been foreseen, that the head of a University which Erasmus fte quented and which counts Milton in the number of its pupils, should have been guilty of such an act of stupidity ?" In his account of his visit to the Botanic Garden at Oxford he relates an anecdote traditional there, respecting Linneus's visit to the same establishment. Lissom arrived at Oxford, when quite a young man, and soon after, publishing his " System of Nature." He met with a cordial reception on the part of Mr. William Shenutl, but was received very coldly by the botanical incliner, Dillcnins, to Whom 111 r. Sherard introduced him. " So^ said Dillenius, " this is the young coxcomb who is throwing both the science of botany and its cultivators into a state of confusion I" Though Linnwus did not understand English, the word confusion, pronounced with a strong German accent, particularly attracted his notice, and enabled him to guess the meaning of its accompaniment. In their walks through the garden ',humus woe asked his opinion as to the onlirrAinenn esultelewin, respecting which botanists were net, at that period, agreed. He replied to the question in a strain of luminous inforniatlon witiott dispelled every doubt, and astonished his auditors. He was put to a second, and a third trial, with an equally successful result. " Thete is no confusion in that head" remarked Shensi' to Dillenius. Sherard became warmly attached to the young Swede, and made him his gust during the remainder of his stay at Oxford ; and Dillenius, as he became better acquainted with him, exchanged his - churlishness for professions of the strongest regard. On taking leave of the latter, Lionsus jocularly begged his forgiveness if he had " introduced confusion into the Botanic Garden at Oxford." ldr. Schultess, whilst Inspecting Mr. lambeet's Museum in Londe, reesenhed in a fellow.visiter, an old' correspondent, but whom he lad never before seen. It was !agates, a member of the Spanish Cortes, who had on the overthrow of the Constitutionalists, been compelled to fly from Cadiz, leavintin'the hands of his enemies his wife and five children, his whole fortime, and his herbals and manuscripts, the result" of twenty yeses labour, including his " Flora Hispania," which was' quite ready he the Dress.

What these are taken into account, it will appear that a very great inajafty of the house o? commons (which consists of 658 members) is retuned by the Wisest* of less then two hundred peers and commoners.
