The space between this centre compartment and the.liae marked out by the north external wall, appears not to be less than fifty-five or sixty feet ; and as it is evident that the approach to the centre (which is supposed to contain the staircase) will be through this north compartment of the building, the combined effect of the hall and staircase is Lkely to be very imposing.

VII. In two volumes IWO. trice IL 16s. boards. A NEW DICTIONARY, ITALIAN AM) ENGLISH— ENGLISH AND ITALIAN, with the Equivalents in French, by Stefano Egi.lio Petronj, Member of the Grand Italian Academy, and John Davenport. More than Fifty years have now elapsed since the publication of Ilaretti's Dictionary, which, although professedly compiled from that of the Della Cruets, does not contain all the words found even in that Vocabulary. This imperfection was rendered still more serious by the subsequent appearance of the copious Dictionary of Alberti. which included several thousand words more that, any other lexicographical work of the Italian language. The meagre ness and poverty of Barettfs compilation thus became so apparent, that nothing but the went of a superior work of the kind could have insured it so large a share of public patronage. In the Dictionary now published by Mr. Petronj, will be found, not only all the words contained in the Della Cruses, and Alberti, with their equi valents in French and English, but also many new ones of recent introduction into the language, together with the philological re marks of Monti, one of the most celebrated Italian critics. Mr. P. also, for the first time, has marked the exact pronunciation of every Italian word, the irregularities of verbs, the doubtful plurals of nouns, &.c. Ate. Mr. Davenport has rendered the second volume particularly useful to foreigners, by marking the accentuation of every English word, and by the addition of a Synopsis of English Grammar, founded upon the principles of the best modern Gram marians. An impartial public will readily perceive and appreciate the decided superiority of the presznt work over its predecessor, and the great advantages which it affords to all who are desirous of per fecting themselves in the harmonious language of Daly. A third part is now in the press, containing the French, Italian, and English. VIII. In Oro. with a 1114,Priee 12v. boards, MEMOIRES HISTORIQUES.

A hurricane waa ex perienced at Antigua the day before, which lasted between four and five hours, but nu damage waa sustained by the shipping, or on land. His Majesty's sloop Thracian, 18 guns, Capt. A. Forbes, I arrived at Portsmouth on Thursday, from the West Indies: she left the island of Jamaica on the 14th July last, and on the same day fell in with the Rains transport, also' homeward bound, Lieut. Burdwood, agent; from thence they proceeded to the port of the Havannah ; off the island of Cuba they fell in with the Hornet, an American cor vette, cruising for the suppression of piracy ; another cor vette, two Spanish frigates, and two English men of' war schooners (the Union and .s'peedwell), were lying in the harbour. A rumour had obtained at Jamaica, that it was the intention of the French Government to occupy the island of Cuba, with a naval and military force, on behalf of the Crown of Spain, but it did not appear, from the state of political affairs at the Havannah, that there was any truth in the report. On the night of the 31st July (one week after the Thracian sailed from the Havannah), she was taken in a most tremendous hurricane, the severest ever witnessed by any of the officers or ship's company, and in which she all but foundered ; the gale came on to wards the evening, and by midnight blew a perfect hurri cane, so dust not a stitch of canvass could be shown ; the fore-stay-sail and mizen-try-sail were blown to ribsrds, anti the sea was in a most frightful convulsion ; at last, finding that the water was gaining very fast, and the ship settling, they threw overboard fourteen out of eighteen of their guns and carriages, and cut away the mist n -mast, by which measures the vessel was saved from, what ap peared to all on board, immediate destruction ; there were tour feet water at one time in the Captain's cabins, and so dreadfully did the ship labour, that the water appeared to come through her sides by buckets full. On Wednesday, the 24th ult. a Court Martial was held on board the Royal Sovereign yacht, at Deptford, for the trial of Mr. Thomas Goble, Purser of his Majesty's ship Andromache, on four separate charges of extorting a higher rate of interest from the ship's company titan is allowed by law; and also with falsely and vexatiously imputing to Lieutenant Alexander Tait conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman, by charging the said Lieutenant with having received the sum of 11. Is. 811., which he denied having received, and which in fact never was paid to Lieu tenant Tait. The examination of witnesses for the prose cution occupied the whole of the 24th and 25th, when, the prosecution being closed, the Court adjourned till next day, at two o'clock, to allow the prisoner time to prepare Lis de fence, in which he was assisted by Mr. Minchiu, of Gos port, who delivered a most able and animated defence, which, with reading the documents, accounts, and letters, occupied nearly two hours and a half. After the examina tion of Mr. Goble'a witnesses the Court adjourried till' Saturday, and after six hours' deliberation, at length pro noanctsl that the four first charges were proved, but with regard to the fifth, it was only proved that Mr. Goble haul falsely, but not vexatiously, imputed to Lieut. 'ant a con duct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman. The pen pence of the Court was that Mr. Goble be dismissed the service. [From rif;sto;re des Chieriß re Orer.] Who would imagine that a dog had been made service. able as a clerk, and had thus made for his master upwards of a hundred thousand crowns—and yct an incident like this happentA upwards of 30 years since. One of those iittlustt ittus beings, who know how to make a chaldron of coa!s out of a billet of wood, determined in extreme po— verty to engage in trade. He preferred that species of merchandise which occupied the least space, and was,cal ctilaterl to yield the greatest profit. He b o rrowed a small sum of money from a friend, and, repairing to Flanders, he there tou'glit pieces of lace, which, withoet any danger, he smuggled into France in the following manner : Ile trained an active spaniel to his purpose. He caused him to be shaved, and procured for him the skin of another dog of the same hair and the same shape. He then rollttt the lace round the belly of his dog, and put over it. the garment of the stranger so adroitly that it was impossibhs to discover the trick. The lace being thus arranged in this pedestrian band-box, he would say to his docile messenger " forward, my friend." At the words the dog would start.. and pass boldly through the gates of &Wines or Valen ciennt s, in the face of the vigilant officers placed there r prevent smuggling. Having thus passed the bounds, lea would await his master at a little distance in the °pets country. There they mutually caressed and feasted, wail the merchant placing his rich packages in a place of seen. rity, renewing his occupation as occasion required. such was the success of this smuggler, that in less than five or six years he amassed a handsome fortune, and kept hf coach. Envy pursues the prosperous ; a mischievou s neighbour at length betrayed the lace merchant, notwith standing all his efforts to disguise the dog—he was sus. pected, watched, and discovered. How far does the cunning of some animals extend !-Di4 the spies of the Custom House expect him at one gate, be raw them at a distance, and instantly ran towards another. Were all the gates shut against him, be overcame every obstacle--sometimes he leaped over a wall, at others pass. ing secretly behind a carriage, or running between the of travellers, be would would thus accomplish his aim,. One day, however, while swimming a stream near Malines, he was shot, and died in the water. There were then about him five thousand crowns worth of lace—the lcss of whicle did not afflict his master, but he was inconsolable for dui loss of his faithful dog.
