Now several ingenious and learned ex fl il-tions have been given by runny eminent persons about this number, but almost the whole of them have confounded the two Beasts, and apply the number to the Seven Headed Beast, whereas. li pmi an attentive perusal nl the chapter, it is evident the Two Domed Beast is meant ; therefore, as Y' rarer bath been governed a Etcater series of years by and had more kitigs of the name Of Ludo vieiis (Lewis► than of any other name, and in that name the num. her of the Beast appears, I am inclined to thing the proof is made out satisfactorily : , U !ir .79J 0 V 1 100 5 0 The key fits the lorlc exactly ; and what is st:11 more sinzular, the sovereign power of the Pope was created 1w Charlemosie, an Eoperor of France (the idol of iliionaparte), Po by another Empe ror, Napoleon, was that same power taken away, and the Pope re doepd to a mere Rishcp twain.

Among other preparations for the Fetes to he given at Carltnn iionse, on the arrival of the Allied Sovereigns, there is one which is to give a new teatine to.these splendid entertainments. A tem porary bridge is throwing over the Ha !

On the park-lawn, buildings in a fancifol and elegant st)10 wiil be erected, from which there will be a very tine view of the parade, eanal,&e. on which latter, illuminatioi s. fireworks, military rockets, and a variety of splendid devices will be exhibited. Thus will tbrtn a very Veaotiful retreat from the sumptuousness of the state apart ments, and a most deligiidA promenade.
