LITERATURE AND SCIENCE. T st. j o h ns toisa ; or, JoAn Boil of Goalie. An lii.doliad Rostanoe. In Three Vols. 12mo. Th e re is no depirtment of Literature which has been more extensively or successfully cultivated of late than t hat of the Historical Novel, or Roma n c e ;and notwith wading the somewhat plausible objections that have b oa wade against a species of writing in Which fiction • and hi st ory are combined, and, as it were, amalgamated, is los s be allowed to possess many claims to popular fa i o r, Of tours; we must be here understood to when ably executed; in which case we know har dl y any species of composition more generally inte resting, or affording such extensive scope to a writer of s tay. If for the sake of heightening a situation, or ad ding a characteristic trait to a well known personage, the author occasionally passes the precise bound of histori 4al accuracy, or draws largely upon his imagination, this i s no greater license than that which has ever been con - ce d e d to the tragic dramatist, who, borrowing the out o f his story from historical events, fills it up so as prodrice the most impressive effect. Among those ifisterical Romances which have recently issued from ;press, we hesitate not to assign a foremost place to St. Johnstoun: Of the author of this intereting pro- Jection we know nothing. We possess even no clue to his name. We can hardly suppose it to be a first pro. •duction, but we are ignorant if it be really so or other wise. Of one thin, however, we feel assured, that what eser be the writer s literary teputation and pretensions, he need not decline avowing this production. Criticism i n‘y perhaps detect a kw trifling imperfections; but fur sustained interest, ell-drawn and forcible delinea tion of character, and powerful .dramatic effect, there -ire but very few works of the same class which we can ;place beside it. Nothing can be finer` than the portrait e r e given of James. His pedantry, waywardness, poi ..treonerybis habitual suspicion, his capricious temper, and self-importance, are all admirably depicted, and form - a most finished piece of historical portrait painting.— We certainly look forward with sanguine expectation to ether productions front the same pen ; yet would aadsise the author not to .suffer.the blushing dawn of farce to compose too rapidly. Let him rather strive to matare and improve his talents; and we shall then hail his neat appearance with undiminished delight. ENCYCLOPSDIA METLIOPOLITANA, PART X. The tenth Part of the Encyclopedia Afetropolitana _last published, which gives nu less than six Parts in 'soma what more than eighteen months—a 'progress which, considering the peculiar nature of its plan, implies a great • degree of strength both literary and pecuniary. The writers into whose hands the Encyclopaedia has devolved, are men who have been educated at Eton and West► minster, at Oxford and Cambridge. And certainly, if the list which has been circulated be correct, the Ency clopedia Vetropolitana may rank among its contribu tors some names of whose assistance any literary work might well be proud. Blomfield, Monk, Herschel, Mutely, Babbage, Kater, Arnold, Peacock, and. a long list of other. names scarcely less distingnished in the Fasti of our Athena Academia', have been men timsed ws welled among its members. The Public, 'therefore, will be glad to learn, that thosa who attach honour to the names above cited, will see uo reason, .throughout this multifarious work, to change their opi nion, or blush fur Their predilections. . With respect to the plan upon which this Ene.yc2o • pails is executed, • whatever.doubts may have existed ;vile 'time as - to its practical possibility, these ate now of course removed by the evidence •of actual 'eSpieriment. Its principal featuri—that . Of combining a logical with an alphabetical arrangement—has an siered ; and the work, in its state of "even . progress, instead of being like a house that is building—of ,no use until finished—is really one of the most read able periodical productions at -present issuing front the press. - The History of Rome, for example, which is to be found in the last Four Parts, may be studied with pleasure, as a most judicious account of the rise of .amt extraordinary empire. Its appropriate praise may - -who be bestowed on the treatise upon Logic; it is not only 1 . id eicelleat treatise upon:that subject, but it is.the only ,fie pretending to ofiginality. There are alsoasio lives, 'one of Socrates and the other of Plato, attributed to Arch deacon BLONTIILD, which are alike admirable for the - excellent sense and accurate learning which they exhibit. A history of the life and writings of Plato was hereto fore k desideratum in our language. Respecting the • scientific part, it may, perhaps, be sufficient to say, that Fife three last treatises in this division of the work are 'film the pen of Captain Kater, Mr. Herschel, and Pro fessor Barlow. The most truly novel feature, however, in this Encyclopedia, is the historical Lexicon which it prevents of the English language. The plan adopted in 'this part of the work is that which Horne Tooke recom mended; and his views are carried into execution with such an apparat us o f rea di ng , s uch stores of black letter aa Well as of classical • authorities, as are sufficient to stamp the work with a character of its own. The com bination which is thus continued in the miscellaneous department of philological, historical, and scientific in formation, often on the same word, is as entertaining as st is useful and instructing. It would be unjust to conclude this brief notice of a s • It so deserving of success, without noticing the plates. -'7 are by Lowry, and are got up in a manner which :•.1141.1 add to his high reputation. The maps will attract •` . *etch notice, as being in some respects upon a new plan, *lid executed with extraordinary beauty and elegance, POMP POICEILTEACTINO POISON PROM THE STOMACH. Nearly two years ago Mr. Jukes, surgeon, contrived apparatus for evacuating the human stomach, con sisting of a long elastic-gum tube, and a large copper airioge with two valves, or, in other words, a small Pump. He had proved upon himself the practicability of employing this instrument which it was thought. 'might be successfully used in extracting poison from the stomach. On Wednesday evening, the 9th December, 1 7 request of Sir Astley Cooper, he exhibited his in- Stnimthi in the Anatomical Theatre at St. Thomas's hospital, and, to shew its efficacy, would have swal "ecl a large quantity of laudanum, had not the en treaties Of his friends induced him to substitute a solu tion of liquorice. Having swallowed a portion of , this solution, and diluted it by dtinking two pints of water, Mr. Jukes introduced the flexible tube into his mouth, and passed it down into the stomach. Mr. Scott, a surgeon, who had formerly perfotmed a similar ape ration upon thi, Gentleman, immediately fixed the sy • tinge to the extteniity of the tube, and in the space of two minutes completely pumped up the whole of the Najd that had been drank into a wash-hand basin held by au ailiStai)t. Sir Astley Cooper expressed the highest satisfaction in witnessing the speedy and successful s e fe 4 of the operation ; and the Theatre s which was excessively crowded' by prortidond glitl/440atats9 rung loudly with shouts otapprolsation. This public denson4 stration of the vracticithility of ellePtiioS dke s al ad/ by mechanical means, satisfactoek azseres,the moeieal profession of the easy application et arentspanitaz .1 0 cases of poisoning. It would appear, however. that Mr. Ward. of Nottingham, has, for some time, bad in his possession a somewhat similar instrument, of the utility of which (says the &ford Advertiser) we are happy to give even a more decided proof thou the ex periment of Sir A. Cooper, viz. its successful applica tion, on the 19th ult. at the request of Dr. Payne; for the removal of a quantity of lautlanum from the sto mach of a woman, in whom the relief was complete. Mr. It. K. Williams, with the assistance of Mr. Ward. found not the least difficulty in its application." The King of Sardinia, Vicroat EMUAVUZL, is ra.l pidly recovering. The bulletin of the Bth inst. states, that the august patient enjoys regular sleep, and that he has begun to take more substantial nourishment. His Majesty now only complains of a pain in the left side. The Augsburgh Gazette of the 12th instant announces, that his Majesty the Emperor of Atistata has nomi nated the Duke d'ANootiLzste, Grand Cross of the Mi litary Order of Maria Theresa. The Austrian Observer, remit - it:thief°, its hostility:to the Greeks, states, that during the whole course of hostilities, though much blood has beroshed, three has been no action worthy the name of a contbat, and that it is a mere guerilla warfare on the part of the Greeks. It is said the Diet of Stockholm has already come to a resolution on the payment of the claims of the late Royal Family. The Austrian Observii oP the sth instant contains the project of the Brazilian Constitution, presented to the Regent Don Penni), and says,— , 4 It was generally supposed the Regent would refuse his assent to this project, on account of the anti-monarchical tendency of the principal articles (such as the refusal of the abso lute Veto, the indirect nomination of the Chamber of Senators brthe Representatives, der.) Contrary to all expectation, he has returned it to the Assembly without any observations, tp be taken into consideration; it is, however, supposed that it will undergo considerable modifications. ______. ..... The King of the NETHERLANDS has presented a re solution, imposing certain prohibitions and restrictions on the importation of some articles of French produce and manufactures, to the States-General, in the form of a project of law. The Commission of Inquiry at hlayence has received directions to perform another task. It has been ordered to collect information respecting all kinds' of journals and periodical publications which are printed in any pert of the States' ot the German Confederation, and, to make, as soon as possible, a rcport to the German Diet. We understand that the Commission for liquidating the claims of British subjects on the Spanish Govern ment is likely soon to be in an efficient state. It will be recollected, that at the period the order for cqmmencing its sittings was given, intelligence arrived of the fall. of Cadiz, and of FIRDINAND's resumption of his former authority. The Commissioners who were to act on be half of Spain, and who had been appointed *by the Cortes, refused, therefore. to act, and all proceedings under the Commission were consequently suspended, till the disposition of the Royal Government could be as certained, and new instructions received from Madrid. 'lt now appears that the Leo, after some deßberition, has consented to nominate new Commissioners, who are on their way to this country, with full powers to decide on the claims in question. A private letter from Madtid mentions. that a fatal duel had taken place there, in what may be caged high life. It would seem that a great intimacy exists between the Marquis de Qui •Ittnia,' tile Minister of Foreign Affairs, and M. HRREDIA. the Minister of ' Grace and Justice; which intimacy, in fact, led to the circumstance of their both coming into office together, and it was in contemplation to cement it by a family alliance. Young CASA Immo, a youth of about 22 years of age, and, we believe, the only issue the Marquis' has by his present marriage, had .for some time been paying his addresses to Miss HILIRDIA, and it was intended that he should shortly lead her to the Hymeneal Altar. Ai few days befo re the letter above alluded lo wasierittepi a serious dispute had; however, taken place beiweeri young CASA IRMO and a French 06ter, and a doel ensuing, the former received a mo y ttl wound. • Thit unhappy circumstance' bad filled tbe i ;MireqUis .with great anguish, and rather tended to 'bring the French into disfavour. The precise origin of the dispute is not mentioned, although it is hinted-dust it was more poll . tical than amorous. ' , MR. Weaark—The Thursday prim to the day when the trial was expected to take plaCe, ass olive-coloured outside "coat, belonging to the murdered man, was, through the vigilant activity of the . Magistracy, disco. i vered near the scene of slaughter, concealed beneath the i underwood of a large tree, the seams rippedin every direction, doubtless in the lope of discovering notes; this coat the unfortunate Gentleman was seen by his laundress to wear on • the day he set off for the fatal journey, and is now in the Magistrates' possession. A singular circumstance, also not generally known, is, that , on the Tuesday previous he was seen tn. count in his chambers several Bank notes, not an unusual practice, and among them several . for £lOO each ; and that on the examination of his chambers by his brothers, subse quent to his death, the utmost amount of monies and I securities found did not amount to more than.LSO, and that in a drawer unlocked. These facts-we can vouch for. Tuesday forenoon a very serious accident occurred at, the weaving factory at Dalmarnock,.near Glasgow. A young woman, while in the act of combing her hair, had the end of it caught by a shaft turning fUriously round; the whole head was instantaneously uncovered,, and the skin and hairy scalp turned round.with the ma chinery; the skin covering the brow, eyelids, and cheek, bones, was alsO torn off; the poor girl screamed, and Mr. JOHN M , Aavnua, tenter master, who was in the flat below, with the greatest presence of mind, instead of running to see what was the cause of the outcry, in stantly stopped the engine. The poor . girl, however, was never off her feet. Mr. Jausaa-Sutru„ surgeon in Bridgeton, was instantly sent for; in the meantime Mr. Ihr Animus put the scalp aukcovering of the upper part of the face into a drawer. On the arrival of the surgeon, about twenty minutes after the accident, Mr. Star: replaced the scalp grid the other torn porticos, and dressed the head. 'Mc greatest attendee was paid to the unfortunate sufferer, Mid she wassubeeteently sent to the Royal Infirmary . On Wednesday night she was calm, and perhaps much better than might have bees expletild ; the head has not been undressed yet ; het the edges of the wooled es the face, ears, cye. and neck, have become serenest slightly, and lidlemed ; indicating, it is presumable, us adhering. na griniing togselter.‘ There is a probability that the whole scalp will When!.
