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 litany enlightened Schoolmasters who would be happy to introduce this national subject to their Pupils. Sit RICHARD PHILLIPS, who for nearly forty years has been the improver and reformer of Elementary Books, therefore respectfully in forms the Schoolmasters of the United Kingdom, that in a few days he will publish, A CONSTITUTIONAL CATECHISM, displaying the FREE PRINCIPLES Or THE BRITISH CONSTITUTION, its advantages and perfections, and its defects and desirable reforms; including a plain abstract of the Reform Bill now before Parliament.—adapted to the use of Schools, as an Elementary Book. Price ONE SHILLING. He hopes that among sensible Tutors, and in intelligent Families, such a tract will become as general and fashionable as BLAIR'S WHY and BECAUSE, or any School Book now in general use. To be had of J. BROOKS, 421, Oxford -street, and of all Book sellers in Town and Country,—with 13 to the Dozen.

Rigid investigation of the character and qualifications of every ap plicant for recommendation, and of the suitableness of every place, which may from time to time be represented in its Books, for the re covery of health, constitute its distinguishing features, and afford se curity to the public on these points, which is not attainable by private means, except with much delay and inconvenience.

OD Thursday, at the ROYAL INSTITUTION, Mr. FARA DAY gave a lecture on CAouTCHOUC to a numerous and highly respectable .audience. He traced it to its soil and origin, ann explained it to be analytically a hydro-car bonous substance, consisting of the proportions of 68 carbon to 10 hydrogen,—an incomparable, and in truth the only natural combination of those elements. He then elicited the carbon in a brilliant experiment. He adverted to the valuable properties of Caout-chouc, its elasticity, impermeability and flexibility, and the important de yeloping and yet undeveloped application of those respective properties. Its spring -like, equal, and expansive elasticity and impeernefibilitv, admirably grialified it for retaining °res ell:ding- liquids and fl•tids,and rendered it, as an article of cloth ing and external covi.:ing, vastly superior to leather. He ex hibited several most intotest::' fr cimenso!'iraterproof shoes, !wets. coats. sailcloth, ba:7s, bottles, ropes, engine -hose, beer engine, gas and other pip.'3 and tubes, syphons, surgical, chemical, and scientific appratus, in all of which caout chnec was the base or elm, acteriutic ingredient, and which were entirely free from the several disadvantages of pervious ness, poisonous oxidation, and to which the animal and mineral substances now so applied are subject. These wades were the manufacture of Messr, Hancock, to whom is doe the mi•rit of the discovery, and who tr.asess and use a process for fusing and recompounding, or casting the caoutchouc. The pranical utility of the applications already made and tried, were shorn by the written testimony of Captains Parry, Franklin, and others. and illustrated by accounts of the successful tostiit of experiments made at Deptford, Woolwich, &c. the jut insie value of the sub stance was further exemplified by the encl.:frit% of the French and other philoso, hers and men of science. These developments gratified and astonished the audience, as much as the specimens could have atroicted their admira tion, and many of them staid after the lecture, to inspect the articles, and cogoire about the makers. As soon as ,:..L . ruption ceases to be en expedient of Go vernment, and it will cease to be such as soon as a Patriot King is raised to the throne, the panacea is applied ; the spirit of the Constitution revives of course ; and as fast as it revives, the orders and forms of the Constitution are restored to their primitive integrity, and become what they were in tended to be, real barriers against arbitrary power, not blinds nor masks, under which tyranny may lie concealed. Depra vation of manner exposed the Constitution to ruin ; and refor mation will secure it. Men decline easily from virtue ; for there is a devil too in the political system, a constant tempter at hand; a Patriot King will want neither power nor inclination to cast out this devil, to make the tem, tat ion cease, and to deliver his subjects, if not from guilt, yet from the consequence, of their fall. Under him they will not only cease to do evil, but learn to do well ; for by rendering public virtue and real capacity the sole means of requirineany degree of power orprofit in the state, he will set the passions of their hearts on the side of liberty and good government. A patriot King is the most powerful of all reformers ; for he is himself a standing mi racle, so rarely seen and so little understood, that the sure effects of his appearance will be admiration and love in every honest breast, confusion and terror to every guilty conscience, but submission and resignation in all. A new people will seem to arise with a new King. Innumerable metamor phoses, like those which poets feign, will happen in very deed ; and while men are conscious that they are the same individuals, the difference of their sentiments will almost persuade them that they are changed into different beings.— But that we may not expect more from such a King than ever be can perform, it is mammary to premise another obser vation; after which I shall descend into some that will be more particular. Absolute stability is not to be expected from any thing human ; for that which exists, immutably exists alone, necessarily ; and this attribute of the Supreme Being can neither belong to man, nor to the works of man The best instituted governments, like the best constituted animal bodies, carry in them the seeds of their destruction ; and though they grow and improve for a time, they will soon tend visibly to their destruction. All that can be done therefore to prolong the duration of a government, is to draw it back, on every favourable occasion, to the first good principles on which it was founded. A Patriot King affords one of the occasions I mention in a free monarchial state, and the very best that can ha pen. It should be improved like snatches of fair weather at sea, to repair the damages sustained in the list storm, and to prepare to resist the next For she) a King cannot secure to his peas plea succession of princes like hitusolf. He will do all he can towards it by his example and by his instruction. But, after all, the royal mantle will cot convey the spirit of pa triotism into another King. as the mantle of Eijah did the gift of prophecy into naother prophet. The ut.i.ost he can do, and that which do, erves the utmost gratitude from his subjects, is to re:Awe good g. , verninent, to revive the spirit of it, and to maintliu and confirm both, during the whole course of his reign. Tile rest his people must do for them selves. If they do not, they will have none but themselves to blame : if they do, they will have the principal obliga tion to him. His first care will be ti purge his Court, and to call into administration those men he can ass:ire himself will serve on the same principles on which hi intends to govern. If, th e n, the precedent rt,ign ha; been bad, v.() know how he will find the Court cu iipiev.d. The men in power will be sonic of those adventurers, h.i.v an I bold, who thrust and crowd themselves early into the of party, and the management of affairs of state, often ithout tine ability, always without true ambition, cr even the appear ances of virtue; who mean nothing more t:mti what is called making a fortune, the acquisition at writitt to satisfy avarice. and of titles and ribands to satisfy v :oily. Such as these are sure to be employed by a weak or n x‘it ked King; they impose on the first, and are chosen by the last. All the prostitutes who set themselves to sale, all the locusts who devour the land, with crowds of spies, parasites and .19 co phants, will surround the throne, under the patronage of such Ministers; and whole swarms of little, noisome, nameless insects will hum and buzz in every corner of the Court. Such Ministers will be cast off, and such abetters of a Ministry will be chased away together and at once by a patriot king. Information from Berlin state, that the Pelts are erecting very strong entienchments at !'raga and Grochow ; the troops under Sacken have taken Pultusk. Letters from Memel of the 21st, and from Tilsit of the 19th, mention that the Russian• General Renuettampf has arrived at Polangen and taken the command of the troops ; there he has been strongly reinforced and is going to act on the offensive. PARIS, MAY 2.—Sunday being the King's fete, there was to have been a grand review, but in consequence of a dreadful wet Saturday, it was put off to next Sunday. Yes terday, however, until eight o'clock, was very fine, and ttLI Champs Elysees were very gay. About four o'clock the King, attended by two of his sons, four or five gentle men, and as many servants, rode as slowly as possible front Neuilli to the Palace. The crowd was most enthusiastic. The King, with his bat off, bowed as repeatediy as he could, looked remarkably well and pleased. He wore no mark of royalty, and he and all his suite bad on plain clothes. Not a soldier or national guard near him. Pray do not put into the STAR the lies and nonsense sent from Paris. The hum bug of all the Paris correspondence ought to be explained. PARIS, MAY 3.—The state of public opinion in France is in no respect changed. Those who were for war, are fer war still—and those who were for peace are for peace still. Those who have cried aloud for the dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies are not less importunate or e% en clamor ous. Those. on the other hand, who think the restoration was very good, and the foreign and domestic situation of France during the reign of the Bourbons, by no means so bad as is sometimes represented, are for leaving Belgium to settle her own affairs—are for leaving the Italian patriots to be massacred by the Pope and the Duke of Modena—Pate for leaving the Poles to the " tender mercies" or just dis pleasure of the Emperor of Russia—and even some of them blame the interference of France in the affairs of Portugal ! ! These ;Len have no idea that the moment may ever arrive when F. auce a ill want allies, and that then, having allowed the peup:e of other countries to be oppressed, that France will find Rhea neither among the kings nor among the mil lions ! Still less have these puny, sleepy, old men any idea of a nation being grand, or generous, and of its espous ing the cause of liberty, human happiness, and civilisation. Tt.ey carry this system into all their political and personal °pi/ l ino., ; and, for this reason, they hate free trade, and hate the removal of ease obstacles which prevent one nation front ha% tug a tee intercourse with another. They under , stand no 1110. e about a•ithinetic than they do about politics. / • T!teirs is " the chandler's shop school." They comp re h en d very well, how so much of French taxes, laid on so many ' bales of English goods, will produce so much mo:tey on all the English goods imported ; but they cannot understand how France will be the gainer, if she laid no taxes at all ; and in return sent her wine into England free of duty. Thus we are divided into two great parties—the friends to improve ment and the enemies to all change. There is a third party. which is the ministerial party. Sometimes it is be . found acting nobly, and at other times meanly. it is trying in the two or three months of vacation to gain over partisans, and hopes to secure a majority in the Chamber of Peers.
