The following übservations on this truly original and most admirable Novel appeared in the Aisti•Joee bin Review for Octcber, 1817 : " Nardeibren is a work of genius 14 a moral work, ft can hardly be excelled. Sound principles, right feelings, honourable sentiments, ate every where predominant, with a detestation and scorn of vice and folly. Its language is good, its style easy and familiar ;—it is full of life and matter. The serious parrs are in teresting—some of them very pathetic; the love is natural and affecting—the passion well pourtrayed. But that which distin guikes this work, more especially, is a rich and exquisite vein of humour, that has scarcely ever been surpassed. The Insipldl:y of modern novels has become almostproverbial; those which pos sess the fairest elaMt to excellence, yet have little or no pretension to humour. in this particular Ilardnaress stands unrivalled. " We hear it rumoured, that characters 01 high tank, and 110 torlety are supposed to be exhibited, In masquerade, in this ad !viral& novel, together with transactions, which, it is said, are stall the theme of wonder and conjecture. Whether this be the case, we leave to the decision of such as are better inisentedthan ourselves. IR the preface to Cminkte, a pleasitig moral tale by the same author, we find it disavowed. Be this as It may, we have only to remark, that the satire here displayed, as bear no sting but that which is derived from its truth, personalities being cautiously avoided, if not studiously cowealed; and that it is levelled, exclusively, at vices and enormities, inaceesdble to any weapon but the pen of the satirist. " We consider this truly original performing merely as a work of entertainment ; and so great Is the knee* arids. front its in rin.te excellence. that the rear, earest li trle..abou' t any individua b who may be supposed to be aimed -at. Wa. Bailit original, since the characters are taken only from .tbe great book of limas' nature, and draws so strongly, and so ably, from the Marquis to the Welton; Woman, that it Is dill cult to imagine they are not really ha ezistence, endplaying their parts on the great stage of the world. lids, perhaps, has given rise to the opinion mentioned above. in manner, ilardmiresi bears the tame resemblance to the best works of the kind extant that those works severally bear to each other. dome degree both of taste and }edemas is requisite to feel ibe excelleacies of good works of this eon ; we, therefore, consider tiers moo bad ' stones of the powers of readers. We have beard of **pie who i think there is no wtt and intatour in Cremates, and that Shah spears is a bop of nonsense. To such we by no means recom mend Nariagkere t but thom who possess the necessary maid anima wdl led in it a delightful treat, and. though it Is Ovate Wasik. rill regret when they come to the conduits's+. However, it loses sob* by repetition, a sure test of merit. We *ball not ' attempt a dedosatioo of even the principal characters; from their somber sad variety, our limits are inadequate. We refer our Readers to the Work itself for them, and ter the NOY y." AND SAXFACOBOUttG. II ER.

There ii a report in the City, stating that disputes had arisen between the English and American Com missioners in running the boundary line in Upper Canada. On inquiry, we find the report is brought by private letters from Quebec to the 22d ult. The Commissioners are stated to have sent dispatches on the subject to their respective Governments. A variety of letters have been received from Cadiz, of a date as recent as the 2d . of December, and it would appear, by the subsequent extract, that the new expedition preparing for South America from thence, is to be on a very extended scale. Besides the native vcs.els and the Russian fleet, many foreign ships have been freighted for that purpose. One Swedish transport libd been engaged at the expense of 15,000 dollars. The time of the departure of this ar mament is stated as the 25th of this month, but from the situation of the Russian fleet, it is utterly impos , sible that any such intentica, if entertained, can be fulfilled—and nothing seems yet to have been posi tively determined as to the destination of the whole or any pan of this force. " CADIZ; DECEMBER I. 'a The expedition preparing in this port, and which is destined *our SoodiAmerte.ut Colonies, is mush larger dia. was at list mentioned, and numerous foreign ships have been purchased, which are to form a past of it. The Russian squadron is every moment expected, and. will escort them. The number of troope'that see to embark is double that previously fixed open, and several battalions from the frontiers will be employed in this service.—A vessel has reached this place from Limi, and two others from the Ha. _ mule& The first has brought no news of import. ‘tence from Peen, but the others convey intelligence that she corps of Mina, surrounded by the Royalists, had been almost entirely destroyed, so that scarcely fifty men escaped. We are uncertain whether Mina be himself taken. but we are sure he was wounded in the action." The advises which we have teen by the Hambusgh Mails, state", that in consequence of a request made by the Court of Spain, the Danish Government has net only renewed the prohibition of the export of arnis and other means of war, from her colony, the island ut St. Thomas, but the more effectually to preveift disobedmoce to her mandate. has prohibited likewise the importation. FRANCE. 1. , .m.•11M • leg lACT Mow A lostiVATO tarts*. " Pas's, Prcrusvit 20. 64 Affairs assume daily a mote decisive aspect, and I ihall not be astonished if we soon witness very im poltant events. Every reflecting Frenchman con siders his country as a vessel beaten about by the waves, and navigating in a sea without ports or anchoring place. The Ministers, in the midst of all these dangers, think they can cnntroul events, though the helm, which they have never rightly managed,, has now slipt from their hands. Alter all that has passed in the Chamber of Deputies, it is impossible to say, whether, and hew, the Law on the Press will be adopted. I am curious to learn how the prin• ciples which M. Laine laid down to the Chamber. with regard to amendments on presented laws, and the manner in which he proceeded. will be jtidged in England. The following me 'he articles of the Charter on this subject : " Art. 16. The Kiug proposes the Law. " Att. 46. No amendment can be made to a law. if not pro ylo,ed or columned to by the King, and if not referred to and dimmed in the Bureaus." 6 , These articles are favourable to what M. Laine ade,ineed I but, on the other hand, it cannot be dis sembled that there is great inconvenience in having the initiative vested in tl.e King. In 1814, when the. Charter was discussed by a commission of 21 Mem bars of the Legisl•ttive Body (before it was presented to the King), there were seven votes against the article which gives the King the initiative. 66 Every thing induces the belief that the Duke of. Wellington will soon be in Paris." • Yesterday the French Ambassador had a long in.' tercet, with Viscount —ASTLEREAOII, at his office in Downing.street. His Excellency hAti afterwards a long interview with Earl BATHURST. The Noble Secretaries, at the conclusion, had a long consulta tion together. • M. PALMILA. the Portuguese Minister, has left town on bis way to Paris, where a conference is to be held on the subject of the dispute between Spain and Portugal. Monday a Gentleman arrived in Downing-street, with dispatches from Mr. Lama, at Frankfort. The Warn, the Princess ELIZABETH, and atten d4nts, arrived at Windsor on Monday evening, from Both. Yesterday morning, after breakfast,; her MA. JESTS visited the KING. His MAIM! riding from Windsor one day in the month of July, 1773, was overtaken by a violent storm of rain, and being separated from his company, he made towards a cottage belonging to a man named Styles, near Stoke. Here he alighted, and going into the house found a girl turning a goose which was hanging before the fire by a string. The KING desired the girl to put his horse in the shed, which she consented to do, at die same time requesting him to mind the goose. While she was gone the farmer' entered, and great was Lis Int-prise to see the KING so employed. He, however, had the presence of mind to relieve his Maarsrv, who, with his wonted{ goad nature, conversed on this mode et cookery, and the advantage of a jack ; soon after which he went away. When be was gone, the farmer perceived a l paper on the shelf, and having opened it found five guineas, with these words written in pencil, 44 To buy a jack." The house taken by the agents of Prince Lsoeotn, is Grosvenor-place, is only hired for two months I prineipally for the purpose of receiving the house hold furniture which was in Canaeliord House belong ing told, Serene Highness, and which has been re moving there in caravans within these few days, and it was expected to be entirely cleared last night Of early this morning from Camelford House, so that possession of that house may be .given up before Christmas Day - . It is not yet finally settled as to Prince LaneoLD having Marlborough House : there would have been no doubt upon that point had the lamented Princess CHARLOTTE survived. The Marquis of CAMDEN left town yesterday for his seat, the Wilderness, Keot. The Earl of Aimee has left Brighton for his seat at Bognor. The Duke and Duchess of Leans entertained a select party yesterday, at their house, Whitehall. The sale of Lord COURTRNAY'S estates in Lime rick, closed on Friday last, after a continuance of four days. The estates averaged at the auction up. ' , wards of 17 years purchase on the high rents, and the total amount of the sale exceeded £150.000. The greater part were purchased by the Right Hon. l STANDISH O'GRADY. A Meeting of the inhabitants of Barmy. York. shire, was held on Friday last, at the Crown lan, for the purpose of establishing a Bible Association for that town and its vicinity. The attendance on this benevolent occasion was truly respectable. The Annual Meeting of the Society of School masters was yesterday held at the Crown and Anchor Tavern. the Bishop of CARLISLE in the Chair. It appeared from the Treasurer's Report that the funds of this excellent establishment were rapidly increasing. The Bishop of Cantina, in a speech of extraordinary merit, pointed out the great utility of the Institution, s adverted to the highhrespectability and importance of the instructors of youth to the community, and ex- I pressed his earnest hope, that both himself and his worthy colleagues, the Presidents and Vice-Presidents, would, in their elevated situations, " always remem bet, with sincere respect and gratitude, the place from whence they started."
