We are glad to see that in the last church promotions ministers have had the mirage and honesty to promote men who have maintained, in the worst of times, the principles to which they themselves owe their elevation.

Dr. Maltby, who, if keening and virtue constitute a title to' preferment, ought long ago to have enjoyed it, is to be come Bishop of Chichester ; and the Residentlarysldp of St. Paul's, vacated by the mowed of Dr. Can to Worcester, is bestowed on dm Reverend Sidney Smith, one of the best writers England has ever produced, and one who has laboured incessantly to promote the cause of truth and benevolence. A few such nominations would go far to liberalise the Chinch. It is by elevating good men that good is to be done, and sot by absndoning patronage to the enemies of good. We wish we could say as much of the manner In which the Lend Chancellor has exercised his cede. slastical patronage as we can say of the above promotion.

LITERATURE. Coelho Lemma on the Nature of the Miter's. Trans lated from A. Greek by THOMAS TAYLOR RODD. 1851. This is the first English translation of one of the most valuable relics of antiquity, and proceeds from the indefatigable pen of the learned translator of Plato and Aristotle, a man wbo has dedicated a long life to the dissemination of the ancient philo sophy, and whose astonishing labours fully entitle him to be considered as one of the most extraarili nary literary characters of this or any age. Ocsllus is supposed to have lived about the time Pythagoras first opened his school in Italy, B.C. 500 ; which gives him for contemporaries in the political world, Phalaris, Pisistratus, Cronus, Polycrates, and Tarquin the Proud ; and in the philosophical world, the seven sages of Greece, Heraclitus, of Ephesus, Democritus of Abdera, &c. All that is extant of his works is " The Treatise on the Universe," and a fragment pre served by Stobaeus "On Laws." Both these re luable remains are here faithfully translated, ac companied with copious critical and explanatory notes ; to which are added translations from Tau rus, a platonic philosopher, who flourished under Marcus Antoninus, Julius Firniicus Maternus, and Proclas, all tending to establish the eternity of the universe. We have only room for a short extract from one of the notes, p. 62 : " Carden was not the only astrologer who fore • told the time of his own death ; for Martin Hor tensius, Professor of Mathematics in Amsterdam, not only predicted the time of his own death, but that of two young men who were with him, and the result proved the truth of his prophecy. The fact is admitted by Descartes, while he ridicules the science and underrates the abilities of Horten sius." [See the 35th of his Letters to Father Mersenne, in the 2d volume of that collection.] When Anne of Austria, the wife of Louis XIII. was delivered of the Dauphin, afterwards Louis XIV. a famous German astrologer, was in attend ance to draw his nativity, but refused to say more than these three words, which give a true charac ter of Louis the Fourteenth's reign ; Diu, dare, feliciter, i. e. long, cruel, and fortunate. [See Limier's Hist. du Eerie de Louis XIV.] I omitted to mention above a curious circum stance related of Carden in Larrey's History of England, i. 711, via. that having cared the Arch bishop of St. Andrew's of a disorder which had balled the most skilful physicians, he took his leave of the Primate in these words—" I have been able to cure you of your sickness, but cannot change your destiny, nor prevent you from being hanged." Eighteen years after (i. e. in 1570) this Prelate was hung, by order of the commissioners appointed by Mary, Queen Regent of Scotland. PRICE SEVENPENCE. SPIRIT OF THIS nArs JOURNALS. TIMES.—The Peers who vote against reform do, in effect, say,--as their dependents in the House of Commons have said before thern,—that the Legislature of England shall not consist of King, Lords, and Commons, but only of King and Lords,—that the constitution of England is not, and shall not he, a mixed monarchy, but an unmixed oli garchy ; and that the people shall have nothing to do with the Government of which they are the main support, or with the revenue of which ninety-nine hundredth parts come ces of their pockets, but to pay, and to obey. The House of Commons, well understanding the question, have done their duty in so placing it before the eyes of the Peers, sad they have performed that gtwt service for the Itetollt ol the people of Engfand. Need we ask the people whether they will stand by the HOW of Cossasose? Need wealth them whether they will leave a p retext in the bands of the boroughmonger enemy, for asser ting that the national representatives elected by them after so severe and , long doubtful a struggle with the borot;glunongers, have overstepped their authority in pass ing the measure of refonn—that Lord John Russell was wrong, and Mr. Hunt and Sir Charles Wetherell right, when the two latter asserted so obstinately, that the people eared nothing for the bill ?' Beat the. challenge but been thrown out, and itmust be answtted. Had the conies held their tongues about the matter and left it to the judgment of the lords to determine how the country stood affected towards the bill, the people might have rested on their own conscious enthusiasm, displayed when reform was first propounded by the Ministers, and have let things take their course. Nose, they cannot do sot they have been charged with disaffection to reform ; It is not alleged that they never were reformers, but that they have mooed to be so--that ignorance and levity had made them lovers of reform, but that reflection sad wisdom have revived in them their former patriotic attechmeet to roues boroughs. To refer, therefore, to peti tions alarm or four months' date is no sufficient answer to the especial accusation of the Tortes, that we, the have now of late become " too wise foe reform." rft grave charge beleft unrefined, what follows ?

At the last meeting of the Ward of Bishopegate, Mr. CHARLES Pas RSOW rose to state to his con stituents his reasons for bringing forward a motion in the Court of Common Council for making Aldermen septennial, instead of allowing them to be in perpetuity. He bad, however, heard a re port about which he thought it necessary to make some inquiry before he could think of addressing the Ward. He bad heard it asserted that Alder man Copeland had frequently declared that his gown and his shrievalty cost him no less a sum than 6,0001. An impression had been made that to become an Alderman was, of course, a most ex pensive job, and certainly, if that were the case, he could not expect that it would be an easy matter to get candidates for the office, however honour able it might be. But he believed that some mis take must have been mad., and it remained with the worthy Alderman to set the public right on' the subject. Alderman COPELAND said, that he by no means. considered himself bound to answer a question of the kind, but he would answer it from courtesy. His shrievalty had cost Wm the sum of 4,8001. and his gown had put him to an expence of 1,2001. but his treasurer, who could more accurately state the details, was present, and could correct him if he was wrong. The Treasurer said that the statement was cor rect, but the expence of the contest for the situa tion of Alderman amounted to no more than about 8001. the remainder of the sum of 1,2001. having been expended in decorating the beadle, &c. &c. It is of course quite optional with the Sheriffs to have a brilliant or a shabby Shrievalty, but the constituents of a Ward are by no means chargeable with having led their Aldermen into expense be cause he thought proper to show off magnificently. Some very exaggerated accounts bare been given in the Ward relative to the expense to which Mr. Dove, the opponent of the Alderman, was put by the election for the gown. It had been stated, that no leas than 3,0001. went out of his pocket in the contest; but, it appeared, that that candidate had not much more than as many hundred to pay. Mr. PEARSON was glad to find, upon making this very necessary inquiry, that the inhabitants of the Ward did not resemble some of the consti tuents of another body, and enter into an arrange meat about their votes. The report which ho had noticed had certainly a tendency to reflect upon his brethren of the Ward; but as that impression had been removed, and as the gown was not a matter of such overwhelming extravagance, he shouW certainly persevere in the motion of which he Lad given notice. He then instanced the innumerable proofs which' were every day occurring of igno rance, and folly, and piesumption, and want of feeling upon the part of some of the Civic Wet thies ; and be concluded by reassuring the Ward that an Aldermanic Reform should certainly take place. He was unanimously cheered throughout. G Uerlaft2l o 1788. A" Vie peeps of the continent should not he 1111,1111, sow of foreign colonies refined here.
