As notwittsstaading the fondness of the Parisisus for public exhibitions, the pompons entry of the Duke d'Angouleme had produced but little effect, something of a more solid nature was provided on Monday last, and whilsttthe capture of theTiocadero was acted by the military in the Elysian fields, distributions of eatables ,and wine were made in various places to the multitude, obese loyalty I was a onderfully excited by the gratification of theta. stomachs.

A change equally important and unexpected has ins tekestplace in the University of St Andrew's. Dr. Hunter time venerable Professor of Humanity, after hosier for half • a century flAiril his chair with an ability which ueeds nu praise,and which indeed will be best appreciated by po-teri ty, has et length so far retired from his arduous duties, that au assistant and successor to his chair has been nominated, in the person of the Rev. Thomas Wiles* of Cults. Dr. Hunter, though upwards of eighty, is still hale and active, his mind retains its wonted vigour. and he may yet survive several years; but aCcording to the course of nature, he must erelong "go the way of all tlie earth." When such an event occurs—and we pray that it may be as distant as pos-ible—it will be some consolation to know that his successor is not altogether untried.
