Mr. Hnine, the respectable and talented chemist of Long Acre, who has long bees employed by Government in analysing waters, had two bottles sent to hint for snalysation; TOR ONR FULL OP ALL SORTS OP ANIMAL AND YRO VP A Et F IIA TUSKS IN A TRASK OP nu e ()sir to N, ♦ND STRONGLY SOSPRTGN4iiisD WITH OAS; the other, a bottle which had contained the same foul ingredients, but had been pacified by the Royal Filter. In the unfiltered bottle Le found, be says, forty-six grains and a half of solid matter, of which thirty grains consisted of impui ities, and the remaining sixteen grains were the original ingredients peculiar to the watts•, and dissolved in it : " for," he observes, " there is no water, however pare and wholesome, whether from deep wells, superficial springs, or any (Abet source, that is five from saline and ether soluble salts, not at all injurious to health." In the filtered bottle he found only sixteen grains of substances, which, on examination, proved to be the same materials peculiar to, and soluble iu, the water in its pri mitive elate, and perfectly free from the impurities and contingent foulness of the water, occasioned principally by decayed vegetable matters, a alight impregnation by animal substances, some carbureted hydrogen or coal gas, and car bonic acid gas. Mr. Hume cencludes with bearing the following high testimony to the merit.; of this discovery: " After a very careful analysis, I cannot hesitate to pro nounce the method which has been adopted to filter this :specimen of water to be most effectual, and highly deserv ing of public encouragement." The eats• gentletnan, at a subsequent period, analysed two other bottles, and says, " the opinion I had corniest of this new process for filtering is fully confirmed." We should add, that the water thus analysed. atrir01:011 PURPOISLY STRONGLY ISITURO- This day, the Second Volume, 4to. price 21. ltk AIEMOIRS of the AFFAIRS of -0-1 EUROPE, from the Peace of Utrocht.

So many attempts have been made to mislead the good folks of the Metropolis, by pretending to sure the crying evil of bad water, without the Least pretension, that we were amongst the many who remained sceptical as to the pretensions of the Royal Filter, until we were led to seek ocular demonstra tion by baying one fixed up in a large cistern, and we have now no tort of hesitation in pronouncing it QUIME COM PLETE, and in giving it OUR UNQUALIFIEII PRAISE. The names of the highest professional talent in the Metro polis have given the strongest testimony, that they may be , considered, in the metropolitan city of London as an ab solute " God-send," but we will illustrate their opinions by stubborn facts and proof. as strong as Holy Writ ; and first let us examine the state of the water, as now drank by the thousand and ten thousand persons who have not yet availed themselves of this Filter, and our readers will bear in mind, that this evidence is supplied from evidence given last season in the BRITISH MOUSE OF PARLIAMENT. The following eminent and learned men in their voca tions have given evidence, of which the following is ne cessarily a short extract, viz.:— Sir Henry Hailord, Dr. Hooper, Mr. Keats, Mr. Thomas, Dr. Turner, Drs. Hume, Yates, Kerrison, Somer ville, Johnson, and Paris, &e. 84c.—they pronounce the wa ter sent into their houses to be a filthy fluid, it is saturated with decayed vegetable matters, and other substances pre judieial to health ; that such matters in the stomach greatly contribute to the production of that state of FAULTY DI ISINVILLON and IMPURITY of BLOOD; that it 38 SO FILTHY and IMPURE, as to be unfit for the breakfast table and for culinary purposes, and that it adds so much to the other unwholesome constituents of bread, as to render every meal injurious to the health of thousands ; that the water Rent into the cisterns during the hot weather frequently became aunts PUTZLID ; and they have no doubt that the continued nee of it WECHOUT F/LIBRING is capable of pro ducing deleterious effeent ; that the Thames.] water is ex tremely bad, foul, dirty, and unwholesome, front the great quantity of FILTHY MATTERS coarriatuat.rx youa tato SETO IT FROM NUILEROUS SEWERS ; and Dr. Ker iison makes us acquainted with a fact, the perusal of which will excite the same disgust in the mind of the reader, es we ourselves feel in narrating it. On in speeting the Thames near the landing at Chelsea Hospital, he saw " the foul and black stream from the Ranelagh sewer, passing between the Ceenpany's steam-engine and the Dolphin, LOADED WVI4II NO SMALL PORTION OF sr:int- VIDBia FLOATING rtvest PROM ?RPM/8 ;" from which he soncludes, that " A CONSIDERABLE QUANTITY OF HUMAN tartan bore', EN A SUBD/VIDED AND UNDECOMPOSED STATE, ACTUALLY PASSES INTO OUR ittsxEmes." Dr. Somerville, the physician to Chelsea Hospital, states the water to be very impure. " The tide," he says, " :BUMS UP 'FHB MASS OF 131 PURITY TRODUCEZ BY ALL ➢IIAT 15i VORROPTIBLE IS7 'WE ANIO/AL AND VICOkTABLE rion.u.), wOGIDTHER.IVIkiI %4n NOXIOUS FICTII OF OAS AND .-- OIFIER , 31ANO eIIORIES, THAT CONWLANTLY )LOW INTO 'FOE FROM BATIMRSRA DOWN To GRAVESEND." Dr. James Johnsen, the author of the " Treatise on In digestion," says—" We sneer at the delioacy of the Hindoo, who slakes his thirst at the same tank where hie neighbour is sacrificing to Cloaeina ; but what shall we say to the DELICATE enteaNs ue WESDAIINSTEIt, Who SILL THEIR TANKS AND !STOMACHS WITH WA- 71-1/IL W 41.031 TIM THAMES, Al TRAY vsror rwo/ INTO WIIWAI A HUNDRED 'NfIOUSAND OLO.I O."

The last proft..ssiunal gentleman to whose evidence we shall refer, is Dr. Paris, the author of the popular work on Diet.

Professor Brande, Dr. Clarke, Mr. Brodie, Mr. Keabe, Dr. Seudamore, and 30 other highly eminent and unpre judiced medical men, hare each had the Royal Filter placed in their cisterns, and they all cougar in stating that it renders the most turbid, foetid water of shrystaliue brilliancy, and free from taste and smell.

WAGNER and CHAPMAN have felt a pride in adopting, hoping thereby, in a great measure, to subvert the baneful effects of the " injurious and demoralizing" practices ich have been so notoriously prevalent for a series of years in every branch of the trade and manufactures of the United Kingdom, as to be, most lamentably, an actual degradation to the commerce of Great Britain and Ireland, they deem it indispensably necwecry to con tinue to circulate Advertisements containing a list of their numerous and excellent bargains, which only require in spection to insure considerable purchases from those to whom economy is the paramount consideration.

It gives us no small pleasure to be able to in form the public, that the Lord Advocate has caused inquiries respecting these atrocious mur ders to be resumed with renovated zeal and activity. On Thursday no less than seven in dividuals, including four resurrectionists, and three persons who were in the habit of frequent ing Hare's house, were examined. It was fer merly mentioned that one of the macers of the High Court of Justiciary had apprehended a woman in Glasgow who had been servant with Hare, and there are no slight grounds to hope, that she and the others will unfold a tale of horror, which will cause a jury to consign that acknowledged murderer to the ignominious death he deserves. The public at large are making anxious and universal inquiry after Pateison. This man, in stead of checking at once the course of murder, and bringing the murderers to justice, encou raged the homicides and profited by the horrid traffic. Had be procured only such bodies as were indispensable for his employer's ball, dire necessity might have been urged as a slight pal liation of his odious conduct, but he enjoined the assassins to " procure as many subjects as they could," " asked no questions," and it is be yond dispute, that he offered the body of the woman Docherty to an eminent lecturer in town for 151., who spurned the proposal with merited indignation and contempt. It was proved on Burke's trial that he never paid more than WI. for a body, and had this gtintleman accepted his offer, here was at once a profit to Paterson of five pounds. It will ever be regretted if no se ♦erer punishment than universal reprobation and abhorrence overtake this wholesale dealer in the bodies of his murdered fellow -creatures. With respect to Burke, he is quite resigned to his awful fate. From information received from various quarters on which we:can'depend, we can state that the murders perpetrated by him and his gang will exceed a] dozen, and will certainly be. under a score—a catalogue far too large and horrific, and one for which the blood of a single murderer is but a deplorable atonement. Burke continues to be particularly anxious for the death of his associate Hare—not from vindictive and revengeful feelings—but on the ground of int inanity. When conversing lately on this sub ject, he stated his perfect conviction that if Hare should be again let loose on society, he would recommence his murderous career when he wanted money. This city is no longer polluted with the pre sence of his female companion, of horrible no toriety, M'Dougal ; but where she has gone we have been at no pains to enquire. On Sunday, after her confinement in the Lock-up as formerly detailed, this wretched woman related a horribe, but a plausible story, to one of the sub alterns of authority. She stated, that one night Burke and Hare were carousing in one of the apartments of Hare's human shambles, on the profit of a recent murder. In the midst of their unhallowed orgies, Hare raised his hand, and in a fit of fiendish exultation, stated that they could never want money ; for, when they were at a loss for " a shot," a body for dissection, they would murder and sell, first'. one and then the other of their own wives. Being in the adjoining apartment, the females overheard and were petrified by this horrible resolution, as they had every reason to be assured that the monsters would certainly carry it into effect. A discussion of some length ensued, and Hare finally succeeded in persuading Burke to consent that when the dreaded emergency did arrive, INl , Dougal should be the first victim. A strong desire is still manifested to see the dens in which Burke and Hare resided. A sage personage observing that Hare's house was daily visited by great crowds, rented it for a specified time, and shows it for a trifle to visitors. Yesterday forenoon there were seldom fewer than a score waiting their turn for admittance. But this is by no means the most marvellous part of the etory. Some people have manifested a taste altogether unique, to be possessed of some article or other which belonged to these peerles s criminals. One man boasts that he l got Burke's hammer—another that he }',as Hare's whiskey bottle—while others hare actually carried off small pieces of wood, in or'aer to be convert , ed into snuff boxes or soma articles of fancy.— Scotsman. SUICIDE.—Last evening an inquest was held at the Westminster Hospital, on the body of Mary Anne Stevenson. It appeared that the unfortunate deceased was 36 years of age, and in the fifth month of her pregnancy. About seven weeks ago, she came to reside v.ith a female acquaintance named Ann Jenks, at SG, Great Peter-street, Westminster, having previously lived in the family Of a Mr. Fowler, in Lisson-grove, and also with a gentleman named Pratt, in St. John's Wood, by one of whose servants, she said she had become pregnant. On the 10th December, the deceased was brought to the hospital with symptoms of having taken poison,'and it was supposed she had done so to cause abortion. On Saturday morning she died, and in her pocket was found an ounce of vigar of had, The Jury returned a verdict of " Felo de se," SO Per Cpit. -711 V wg BEZA'S LATIN TESTAMENT.
