[From ra. /widow Mogazinal , --•,, " We first visited the Villa d'Este, tiSeregittetice of her Majesty, our Queen, situated on the oppo site shore of the Lake ; we there saw several signs of her good taste and liberality. She repaired the road, leading from Como to the Villa. which had been for a long time almost impassable for carriages, though leading to a number of Ville, and to aeve nil villages. The people whom we saw spoke highly of her generosity and kindness, and her attention to the poor and dirt r d; one of the men we had with us had served her Majesty as boatman, and spoke of her with apparent gratitude and respect. The proceedings relative to her Majesty were gene rally known ; and we heard a deal of indigestion expressed against such of her people as had ap peared witnesses against her, and were natives of that part of the country, or kuuwu to our later loeutors. " Our row up the Lake was delightful, but we should have enjoyed it more had we nut been so lately on the Lap Maggiore. The Lake of Como, shut in narrowly by the bases of IGlty mountains, ha., perhaps, too much the appearance of a river ; these mountains, however, are in themselves tine objects, breaking into every variety of bold ro mantic shape, plentifully patched with fine woods, and speckled with picturesque church-steeples, convents, white villages, and little towns, Monte 111.bino, which rises immediately behind the Villa d'Este, is a grand object ; it is wooded and spotted with building., almost up to its lofiy peak, which is capped by • aencluity of great reputatiot., where an annual fete is held. We were told that the Queen ha u l once ascended to the very summit. A great number of villas stood close on the Lake; and gardens and vineyard, advance, almost every where, to the water's brink. In proceeding up wards many delightful torus offer unexpectedly some agreeable variety of scenery, and a number of romantic spots present themselves on either hand.• " At a village where we stopped we heard a story that excited our italignation in tro small degree. Some months since two fishermen brou4ltt out of the Lake au ancient statue ; they carried it home, mid some persons who could understand its merit, assured them it was valuable, and advised them to send it to Milan. While they waited ■n oppor tunity to follow this advice, some priests having heard the rumour of the affair, repaired, with the parrochiano at their hcad, to the pour men's habi tations, and desired to see the statue ; on its being •hewn them they assured the owners that it was some heathen god or Magician, and that to keep it, or give it to soy Christian, would be a great crime. The statue was consequently again thrown into the Luke. This trait may be classed with that of the Turks pounding the Grecian works of art to make mortar ; and with the monks of the middle ages melting down the superb ancient bronzes to make bells for their convents. We credit it, from the authority by which we have heard it confirmed, and beermsw, f r om no short experience, we are ac quainted with the ignorance of the priests in the saeltided parts of Italy," .

Improvement in the Trade of Scotland. —The general trade of the west of Scotland is going favourably on. The cotton mills are brisker just now than they have been for a considerable time. The manufactures carried on in the country towns are doing well : the wool manufacturer s i n St ewar . ton andKilmartiock are in good spirits, and the work-people ate at present more comfortable in their eircurnstaticss titan they have been since 1813. —(Glasgow Chronicle.) As an instance of the remarkable drought this season, in Scotland, Locltlimiond has lately fallen wren feet perpendicularly from the water-mark ; and persons pass and repass between two of the islands on stepping-stones, which have been placed there lately, and of which there is no former ves tige. A great many old people in the neighbour hood have gone thither to have the gratification of walking across, and they all declare that they do not remember the loch ever having been so low. The late unfortunate affair iti the Persian Gulf, which we noticed in a former Paper, it seems was the result of an irruption of only forty Arab s , worked up almost to madness by liquor, who *ere sent in to hamstring (or hough) the artillery-horses of the detachment. It stems these inebriated sa vages cut their way into the camp in the darkness of the night, and made the havock alluded to be fore they were destroyed. FATAL ACCIDENT --(:)11 Thrirstlay the 19th tilt. in the midst of the general rejoicings of the day, st man of the c a rne of RICHARD Letcu was un fortunately killed at Suet'(' Green, near Buralein, by firing oft a small cannon, which being over loaded, burst, and a piece of the metal struck him cm the forehead, slid fractured his skull in so dreadful a maniur that be died in a short time. On Fritlat the junior Pennyeuik Whipman So ciety held their anniversary. Among the other amusements were several races, in one of which, run by two memliers of the society for a riding saddle, • remarkable accident took place. The rider'', when at full speed, were each endeavouring to take the narrow put of the course at a turn, when they run their horses heads violently against each other, and both animals dropt down dead; one of their skulls being actually beat in by the shock. The riders were Onion with violence to some distance; but, though severely, were fortu nately not dangerously kr/Warr/0 Star.) PRICE OF STOCKS YESTERDAY. Beak Stock st3ll 231* 1 13aok 1..

It is not always death that terminates the lives of great men; for a long time previous to the Sth May, 193 1. the destiny of Napoleon was closed in the plains of Waterloo; posterity, however, has not yet arrived for him, and we doubt whether up to this moment the hour of justice has struck. Too much hatred, too much friendship, too much admiration still surround his shade, to authorise the hope that the language of inexorable but impassable troth can yet be heard. These passions will cool with his ashes, but his ashes are still warns. We must therefore wait the time for that impartml judgment which futurity will accept and ratify. It is, perhaps, possible, to succeed in some points in sketching what posterity will pro nounce upon Nupoleou. Who can fear to deceive himself, for instance, its affirming that he will be placed, without eoritradiction, in the rank of the greatest warriors, the recollection of whom the annals of all times has preserved. whether we con sider the wonderful results of his warlike exploits, or look to the fertile variety of invention by which they were effected. Undoubtedly we must re cognise a man of superior genius in the brave soldier who threw himself, covered alone by his otaudards, in front of the thunders of Lorin, in the young European, who, without cavalry, dis persed, at the foot of the Pyramida, the most formidable cavalry in the universe ; iu that ardent Captain. who overthrew in a few hours, Brunswick, the old Prussiatt bands, and the lklostarchy of Fre derick ; in the consummate General, who, a ith a handful of heroes, defended, hunt by foot, the ter ritory of the country which was only torn front him by shreds. Doubtless, in this great military career Commenced at 45,5, dulls may he pointed out ; but how many laurels are there to conceal a few cy presses; how many liiumplis are there to compen sate for a few reverses ? Less great than the warrior, the legislator will still be great; if the Penal Code, scourging with a rigour sometimes barbarous, does not sufficiently protect innocence or misfortune; if the code of criminal proceedings unceasingly reveals the pre. cautions of a jealous tyranny, how much the admi rable body of our cis il laws, to which, in adopting them, enlightened nations have rendered a just homage, will still leave, in spite of some blemishes, a high idea of the man, who in the interval of his victories caused to be discussed in his presence, and himself discussed the moat important arrangemeots. The administration which Napoleon created in the bosom of a country which lie found in the great est disorder, may be admired by the partisans of absolute power, which in fact was deliberately com bined in the system of Government that be sought to establish, and under this view it is a now proof of the varied resources of his genius ; it is that also for which we cornett award him any praise. But in condeinisher the principle on which that adininis tnitioa wasi . ouritied, it would be unjust to pass over its benefits—what public monuments, ',talked, streets, quays, canals, and ports, attest the prodi gious activity of a mind, which did not waste itself in sumptuous festivities, bat which always embraced with ardour useful uudertokings. The sciences and the arts flourished under Napo- I. on; he was desirous of patronising them, because he loved them, and also because he knew that his personal glory would be augmented by the glory of the age. Internal commerce and manufacturing industry, which, since the Revolution, have taken Wrest a stride, owe their developement generally to causes anterior to the Government of Napoleon ; it must be confessed, however, that he did much for their prosperity. The continental blockade, considertd in ell the generality of its principle, and in all the rigour of its cousequences, was, perhaps, an error, otherwise that gigantic measure. which Napoleon alone could have conceived, has not been without useful results ; and those who give an opinion upon it will doubtless not forget the maritime blockade which had preceded it—the active rivality of the industry of a neighbouring powers—the obstinacy of its jealousy—and the implacable enmity which it hill avowed towards Napoleon. Grave political charges are made against Napo- Imo. History will judge them with its rigorous equity. At present, we are better acquainted with the inelanclmly results than the causer of his errors. There are, doubtless, those who will find some ca cti/s for them, and at least a little intoxication may be pardoned in him upon whom fortune had don., to heap the must enervating favours. One of the greatest faults of Napoleon, and that which was atomic sufficient to his destruction, was his not estimating men at their proper value, in ludic • imagined that he could induce the greater part's, them to prostrate themselves before an idol, instead" of inspiring them with a just pride in themsehes . and with the noble enthusiasm of liberty ; iu having forgotten that a free people always know how to defend their rights, but that an enslaved people have nothing to defend. That singular destiny which acesmpanied Napo- Icon in his youth, followed him lino the prison where fortune lisel Buono him. There every thing still bore testimony to the profound inipression which bad been left by the remembrance of his renown. Relegated to a burning rock, a squadron was employed to guard him, and the Powers of Europe deputed Representatives to this great power, who were to witness his captivity and his death. His death—the deliverer has come at last, and the tomb of St. Helena will remain in the midst of the ocean to give au eternal lesson to the masters of the earth, that lie, who had received from nature all the gifts of genius, who bad displayed the stand ard of the victor from the Tagus to the Boris thenea, who gave laws to twenty nations, and reigned over twenty Kings, yet fell when he was not defended by the love of nations, and by the institutions of their choice. Europe conspired against Napoleon —and despotism has overthrown both. Europe would hare fled before Napoleon and liberty. s s a So eager and universal was the demand in Parls for the Journal in which the oboe, article appeared, that mans copies of it sold at 30 francs each.

HIGH WATER THIS DAY AT LONDON BRIDGE. !Horning 35 after 5. I Event*/ 63 slier 5. MOST respectfully submitted to the Public the extremely severe case of Mr THOMAS CHAP MAN, late of Soutbwark.—Nearly thirty years ago he discovered and invented the means of making the Fnr of the South Sea Seal-skins available to our marinfacturers. Pre vious to this important discovery, the valuable Fur now obtained from tie seal by his invention, was made no use of other than for manure for the laud. The Fur 84'81-akin. were of so little value, as scarcely to be worth the freiebt of the ship. They were chiefly mild to site tanners, at from four-pence to two shillings each ; they have since been mild at 21. and upwards per skin, and their Fur at eighty shil lings per pound weight. Immense quantities of Seal Fur are yearly manufactured stud worktd up into hats, shawls, and cloth of great value. Numerous nod various articles of ornamental mad comfortable cluthiviz are also nsannfact tired from it; mud it is calculated, that from fifty In one hundred thousand Fur Scal-skins have, on average, been annually imported and worked op wince the time their Fur was by Mr. Chapman first made available. Not having the menus iu his power. when be made this important discovery., of securing it to himself, was the cause of his failure and preseut distress. 'the public bath already benefited by it to a great amount. The friends of the above tneriturions but truly unfor• Witte individual, hale deemed it advisable to solicit PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION, in the Wire of raising a fund that may, in some degree, aileville hi, sufferings.

Thus be, who, by an ingenious and sigtifot discovery, hath been the cause of giving daily brad to thousands, who are employed in an entire new n3anuforturi in various laranehrs,%hich also nu:axioms onmerons and seamen to be employed—who traverse the most remote parts of the South Sr as its search of Fur Seals, discovering many new and valuable talauds is himself, at au adi &acid age, destitute of support.
