TM:Ural •ND WORM The manner in which this valuable Quarterly periodical continues to be conducted, renders it a treasure which must interest in its success every person who feels an ambition, that the erudition and critical taste of his own country, should be creditably appreciated by the literati of other countries. A more selfish principle must likewise interest every student in the success of this work; for he that has once perused it, would regret if any accident should leave such a blank in his sources of information, as its interruption would occasion. We shall now endea vonr to afford our readers a kind of analysis or catalogue raises's& of the articles forming Its contents. Art. I. Mistake de Philippe-August par M. Capollfgue. This is Auli hisrolicail sasses es s week is 4 vas "Corroussi par l'hutitta,"--and comprises an analytical digest of the book, and much original matter by the reviewer. It is remarked that Revolutions are apt to be considered in a point of view too confined. The results of revolution have been long in preparation; in the history of ntankiattl all is gradual, and a revolution is but the explosion of a train that has been long And curiously Lid. At the present time the study of the dif ferent stein by which the citisen has become what he must be an 00. cupation o f the most lively interest; and as the period of Philip was Augustus that in which the internal forms of European Society were mainly arranged and modelled, his, history becomes of unusual interest and value. ' - From the seventh to the tenth century, the parties, struggling foe ascendancy over the opinions of men, were the conquerors by material force, and the clergy by their moral or Wel:Musa force ; and the mu tual quarrels and encroachments of these parties—the soldier and the clerk—constitute the major part of this history. The author ably traces the emancipating progress of knowledge, in weakening gradually the power of the church. Every discovery which teaches a man to think and compare, gives a blow. to all systems of authority. The author shows that the kings, to throw off the yoke of the pope, were compelled to depend on the mama, or bulk of the people; and it is justly re marked, that in all ages, on the masses, power alone has been founded. When unanimous and in motion, no other power can resists they have, besides, a force of inertia. The secret is, to know what they will tole. I rate, and how much they will bear : this is the limit of the authority of a governing power. Many important remarks occur, in tracing the emancipation of the masses from feudal slavery, through the various casual changes of the social state, the collection into towns, and inde pendent communes. M. Capefigue remarks, that the charters giving the name of right to their immunities, or freedom, always preceded the fact of their enjoy. ing it ; from which be adduces this grand lesson for societies,—tbdt the best way to make use of freedom, is, to take it first, and get it written down after. It is cursorily likewise remarked, that the people were never willingly admitted to a share of government, except as being required to pap the principal charges of government. After the jute. dot of the Commons with the Barons and King, a sort of fusion between the three, produced the composite form of modern states. Since the ps. dad of junitiest, die straggle has beta chiefly between the Map mad People ; in which the former, by the generalisation of their authority, maintained generally the ascendancy. Such is a sketch of the political progress of the twelfth and thirteenth counties. The author after wards enters into a history of the progress of the human mind and ma rale in other points ; and the reviewer has judiciously extracted and compressed a collection of facts, elucidatory of his subject, which can only be appreciated by perusal. The second article is a review of two German works, one entitled WI introduction to a Scientific Systems of Mythology, by C. 0. Msdkr, and the other ins the Mystic Theology of the Greeks, by C. disgust* Lebret. The review of the,, work, affords to the reader the result of much curious research and discussion, on the origin of the Heathen blrhology, and the different modes of its interpretation—bow far It can be of value as connected with, or illustrating history—and bow far it Is commixed with poetical imagination, or what may be termed sym bolical metaphysics. There are some erudite, and to us original views of the ancient mysteries given in this article, which will gratify those who are curious on that obscure subject of antiquity. The distinction between ancient and modern religion—the former being matter of forwie,and the other being matter of faith and moral instruction—is ably defined by the reviewer. The third article is a view of the French Medical Work, by M. G. Andrei, entitled 1, Ci inigue Medical* on chola d' Observations re cueillies a I 'Hopital de la ChariM a Paris." This article is almost entirely confined to a plain and generally intelligible account of that dreadful complaint—pulmonary consuroptiou ; to which it is calculated not less than 60,000 persons fall annually victims in Cheat Britain. This article will be read with advantage by all, and we fear with pain. ful interest by too many. The use of the stethescope, percussion of the chest, and auscultation in discovering the disease, are explained, and some judicious remarks and information on change of climate are like wise introduced. The fourth article—A Review of the Life of Carl Maria Von 'reber, by Theodore Hell," is very interesting. Poor Weber, who united in his character both the poet and musician, it is well-known, fell a martyr to the disease treated of in the last article. His private letters to hi► wife during his last residence here, and just before his death, are melancholy but Interesting memorials of the lamented Weber. We are happy to say, that they negative the report we have often heard, PRICE 7D. th e combatants for conquest, with those who had been their opponents on the same motives. It is justly here observed that to the Teutonic race. Europe owes all its superior civilisation. They kept out at differ. ens periods the Huns end Saracens ; and the Teutonic Institutions, are the origin of all the systems of civil polity now so valued in this and other countries—the feudal customs, the chivalry, our Parliament, and our juries. H. Luden, one of these German writers, offers some curious conjectures as to the celebrated treatise Ds Moribus Germano. rum, attributed to Tacitus, for which, with ingenious notices of many obscure parts of history and national antiquities, wo must refer our feeders to the Review. The Sth Article.—The correvpondence between Schiller and Goethe affoid, *hoe imiight into the character of 'fuse celebrated men ; but the leturs are raid to be generally not of the first interest. The 0 . 411 article explains the Revolution at Brunswick, required, and iatartnnitely completed. —ov.a us from Europe to North grad eta secretary at war.

The fifth article is on a French work entitled " Meteors de 1'4.1 par lee Monomers.% Par I. B. L. Serowe d'Agineouri, 6 tom -325 Planches."—We have very seldom read in a review an article more rich in diversified and curious information, than that to which we now direct the attention of our readers. It contains historical details on architecture, sculpture, and painting, which we are confident are very little known. The illustrations of the history of painting, by researches in the catacombs of Rome, are among the number of cu- riot's peints in this article. The sixth snide is on a German history of the origin of the German Hamm Towns, by G. F. Sartorius.—This work contains muck infor- minion. which all . h ould know, and we ate sure very few do know. — The History of the Hameatic League is part of the history of Europe, more talktd of than understood. The 7th article is a Review of two new Histories of the German Nations, by 11. Laden, and C. Manners—two German swelters of leaning end ability. It is remarked, justly, that the early German History is very little studied out of t:ermany. It is accounted for by the Reviewer, in the peculiar facts in the history :of the Teutonic race. The original hive of the Teutortes appear , (tom the earliest records, constantly pourit:g forth swarms on the surroundiag districts of Europe, which, from their importance, have rendered ambiguous and oh , eure the origin of the parent race. Titus, the Franks one of; those swarms commixed with the Celts,produced a distinct people, who In their achieve ments have occupied, and still continue to occupy, more attention than those called Germans. But the Germans have long been famed in His. tory. We first hear of them se Cinibri and Teuton's, issuing from the north of Germany, and striking terror even into the Romans. We nest hear of them opposing Cesar on the Bunks of the Rhine in his expeditions against the Gauls. From contending with the Romans for their own independence, they became. as the Roman power declined, The teaetlk viewing two French works—the one entitled '• Lafayette en 1824 et 1825 ;" and the other " Lewes PUT les Etats Prince Achille Murat." Mons. Le Vaxseur, secretary fayette, gives a favourable account of the United States; in one point too much so, for he seems to doubt the existence of pauperism ; and yet it is stated as a fact, that of 200,000 inhabitants in New York, 31,0001 is expended annually for the support of he pOor. The reviewer afford'. us a very instructive sketch of American law. It appears they have already made, on their impartial British law, many of the improvements we are meditating ; and have even adopted the reports of commissions 118 this country, before they have been adopted here. We were not, until we perdaed this article, aware of the varieties Meting in the laws of the different 'Stites. The situation of the slave. population in tile Southern States was likewise not before understood by us. M. Murat scents to prefer the manners of the Southern States to the Nortitern. We are happy to perceive that the chance of die. union among the States is very slight. The Reviewer justly con demns the late commercial policy of the United States. He does not appreciate their literature very highly. On the whole, he ix fair in his remarks, soil concludos by a prayer for " the never.e tcling &Siam* a Great Britain and the United States, in which we cordially join.

A speech on the Question of using the Ballot in the Election .f Alms bers of Parliament, addressed to all whoa* it way concern. • By iltsorszPaus. The production of some youth, who .oistakes hard words for facts, as ...tide's 6v arguments, and felseimod foe club. A piece, of, empty frothy eccianictinn, which mistakes its own assumptions for conclor.ions, and then draws inferences from what is not vowed. It represents the Ballot as the certain means of promoting corrupt bargains, and render. fag them 1101 E FACILE, as well as wore base by Jselr secrecy ! Such nonsense is not worth an answer; but if this juvenile declaimer make any converts, or if those who floutith by corruption, should happily en. terrain the same opinion, the triumph of the system of Ballot will be complete. There will be unanimity on this point, if the friends of re. form believe as they do, that the Ballot will destroy and render hors. Bible any corrupt purchase or sale of a vote ; and if, at the same time, the friends of the present corrupt system believe that the Ballot will render corruption more general and efficacious. The inexperience of the writer has, we apprehend, led hint to prove too much ; but as friends to the Ballot, while such are his inferences, we heartily recommend his pamphLt to the dangerous faction of the boroughmongers. Every hand, if nis doctrines prevail, will then be held op for the Ballot! We sus pect, however, that all those who have hitherto flourished upon bribery, corruption, sod intimidation, will be found in the day 01 trial to be op. posed to this writer, and will, by their votes and conduct, prove that they consider the plan of voting by Ballot as fatal to hit it craft. HOME CIRCUIT.—WINCHESTER ASSIZES, Fes. 27. The Assists for this county commenced yesterday, when the Com. mission was opened by Mr. Justice PARK and Mr. Justice norms, at the Castle, in this city. There are 27 causes entered. one only of which is a Special Jury cause. The calendar contains the names of 70 prisoners. There are several who were bound over at the late Special Commission to appear and take their trials at these Assizes. Several are committed for arson ; four for sending letters threatening to burn the premises; and injure the persons of different parties, two of whom are females ; and the re mainder are for offences usually found in the assize calendar, though at the same time of rather a serious nature. All the unfortunate men who were sentenced to transportation during the Special Commission here, with the exception of two, have been sent off. At Salisbury the criminal business will be heavy, the Judges have, in consequence, fi xed the commission day at Dorchester twodays later than has been customary. CORONER'S INQUEST AT PUTNEY. An Inquest was held yesterday afternoon at Putney on the body of Mr. Clarke, who died, as stated in our paper of yesterday, from the et. fects of arsenic contained in a biter pudding. It was proved by Mr. J. Bennikun. chemist, of Wandkworth, that on Wednesday. Feb. 16, 31iss lane Clarke, the youngest daughter, purchased an ounce of arsenic at hi -hots. He cautioned her as to the powerful effects of the drug, and labelled the packet 44 poison." Two other chemists deposed that Miss J. Clarke bad applied at their shops respectively for arsenic, saying she wanted it to kill black beetles ; they, however, de clined selling her the poison. The family kept no ..e.ervants but performed all the culinary and household business themselves. None but the several members of the family had access to the flour. tub, and no other person had been in the house while the pud ding was making. It further appeared that after the family had par taken of it Miss J. Clarke buried the remainder in the garden, whence it was subsequently dug up. she havinF confessed the place of conceal ment. At twelve o'clock un Sunday night she tutetnpted to drown her self in the Thames, but was rescued by a i soliceman ; and again rester day morning she made a similar attempt, by immersing herself in the water-butt. The elder Miss Clarke deposed that her mother and sister lived on good terms with each other. All the family, including Miss J. Clarke, had partaken of the pudding, and were more or leas affected ; but the deceased had eaten 'he larAckt quantity. Deceased had been of unsound mind for a considerable period. After hearing the evidence at great length, of which the above is a faithful abstract, the Jury, having deliberated for upwards of an hour, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against Jane Clarke, the youngest daughter of the deceased." The trial of the prisoner will come on at the I next Stiney .‘asizes. A letter received last week from Vienna states, that " Young Napoleon has recently been introduced at the court of the emperor for the first time. He is a tall and very ele gant-looking youth, with a countenance full of intelligence. I afterwards met him at a party at the English ambassador's, where he delighted the circle in which he moved by the ease and familiarity of his conversation, and his general know ledge. Marshal Marmont, with a white cockade, and Mar shal Nielson, with the tri-colour cockade, were present upon this occasion. Young Napoleon talked freely with both these persons. The stories that prevail relating to his monkish habits are quite untrue." General Lord C. H. Somerset, CoL 36 F. Ltauv..GawzaaLs—Aylmer, Walworth Castle; Letithr'llge, late of 69 F ; Graham, Dep.
