" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years and ten." These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, fer they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall b ecome his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their:several healthy states depend, the duties that arc expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of ,all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the lit e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation )f our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ logs, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached inv'olve his legitimate study and pursuit.

Unto the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty— Your Majesty's sole and only master printers in Scot land beg, with sentiments of the deepest loyalty and af fection, to present their duty to your Majesty, and humbly to crave your Majesty's most gracious attention to the following account of their proceedings, from the date of their last report, in discharging the solemn trust with which your Majesty has been pleased to honour them. To the faithful performance of the duties re quired of them, it has been their earnest endeavour to eevote themselves, with an assiduity proportioned to the deep sense of responsibility which a just consideration of those duties cannot fail to awaken. In the first report which we presented to your Ma jesty, a full explanation was given of the measures adopted by us for carrying into practical effect the gra cious intention expressed in your royal warrant for the appointment of the board—of lessening, as far as pos sible, the cost price of the Sacred Scriptures and other works falling under our privilege, by opening the print ing and publishing of them to free competition, in so far as might be found to be consistent with due security for the correctness of the text. On this point it was stated in particular, that the im portant instructions which accompanied your Majesty's Commission were found to be at once so distinct and ample, that, in ordinary cases at least, little more was necessary for securing the attainment of your Majesty's most benevolent object, than to convert those instructions into the form of practical regulations for'the guidance of printers, and to make the requisite provisions for having the regulations so derived efficiently enforced. The conditions under which, in conformity with the said in structions, license is granted by the Lord Advocate, while they impose no restriction which can be felt to be a hardship by any printer competent to embark in the business of publication, and honestly desirous of execut ing with fidelity the work undertaken by him, afford to the board all necessary facilities for enforcing accuracy. A license can be obtained by any person, on intimating to the Lord Advocate, according to a duly authenticated torm, of which drafts are supplied by the Crown Agent. his intention to print and publish an edition of any of the works intrusted to the care of the board ; provided always he enter into a cautionary bond to print the pro posed edition in exact conformity with some previously authorised edition of the same work—to furnish the board, so as to enable them to judge of the fidelity of the reprint, with a atpcinverr , ..py both of the edition p r inted from and of the new edition—the latter in such portions as they shall see cause to prescribe—and to cancel, under their direction, every deviation from the original text. It is obvious, on the other hand, that the due observance of these provisions must supply the board with every requisite means of discharging satisfactorily the important duties with which they have been intrusted. It has been an object of primary care to the board to insist on the most rigid compliance with the regulations to which they have now adverted. In no case has an edition of any of the works subject to their control been permitted to be published without a license. Nor has the publication of any new edition been allowed, of which a specimen copy had not been previously transmitted to the secretary and brought before the board. In regard to the portions of new editions transmitted, and also to the times of transmission, they have been anxious in deed to consult the convenience of publishers—but sub ject, in every case, to the conditions required by the faithful discharge of their own duty. And they feel it to be only an act of justice to those who have been en gaged in printing and publishing under their superin tendence, that they should here state that, in reference to these regulations—with one or two exceptions, not of recent occurrence—the authority of the board has been duly respected. To the rule originally adopted by us in regard to the specimen-sheets to be transmitted to the secretary, by which it is required that these sheets shall be part of the finished work, from the heap, we continue to adhere. The propriety, indeed the necessity of the rule, has been amply confirmed by . experience. The number of cancels which, in several instances even of large impressions. we have found it necessary to exact, n otwithstanding the heavy penalty which it was known that, under the er w e the b existing rule , e ach cance l that mig ht be required would inflict, affords conclusive evidence that, to rest satisfied with that transmission of a mere proof, not a few cases would occur in which there would be de volved on the committee a large share of the work of correcting the same. Such an arrangement would be liable to the still more fatal objection of precluding the supervision by the board of the impression as finally thrown off. The method now pursued, on the contrary, secures at once two independent revisals, and enables the board to provide for the correcting of an imper fect impression, even when on the threshold of publica tion. Aware that it is competent for us to require can cels to be made in any part of a work printed under our authority, provided they be ordered within a month after the last sheets shall have been transmitted for in spection—that no authority will be given for publication until the whole work shall have been revised under the direction and superintendence of the secretary, aad that the specimen-sheets to be so revised must be taken from the entire impression fully printed off—the publisher cannot fail to be determined, by the great expense ne cessarily attendant on cancelling under such circum stances, to guard against the oversight of errors with the most anxious solicitude. Effectual provision is thus made for a careful revisal of every new edition, even before it come to be submitted for the inspection of the board. A specimen copy of each new impression, after hav ing undergone the revisal now noticed, has been regu lt:enrldyenfeoer:vaanr3dedentobistheseciretay, Under his superin responsibility, it has been again subjected to an anxi ous examination. The errata dis covered by this rene wed revisal have been carefull y noted down and sub mitted in detail for the decision of the board. In judging of the er rors brought before them—in ever y case of misprinted wor ds, of such errors of p unct uatio n as e a y ff, withdraw the attention of the reader from the sacred narrative, and distract the current of serious th ought , c i t g e b d t the leave sense,tb the ands se even of error s w hi c h , t h oug h the e untouched, w ere lik e l y to the board have, from the commencement of their course, felt it to be imperative upon them to exact cancels. Where the deviations from the authorised edition were of a less material character, and such as were likely to be discovered only by re aders who.. might b e ma ki ng i t their special object t o note th e discrepancies of different editions, and where the board believed themselves to have sufficient evidence that the deviations referred to did not result from carelessness, they satisfied themselves for some time with directing the attention of the pub lishers to these minute inaccuracies, and w i t h warn i ng them, in any case in which the d ev i at i ons were n ume rous, that unless there should be an i m p rovemen t in subsequent editions , the board would feel it to be their duty to call into exercise their full power. ahe effect of the repeated ado-40114km, given to pub lishers has been greatly to reduce the number of the minute deviations now n oticed ; and in the few cases in which a disposition has been . shown to neglect the cau tions of the board, we have 14tterly, witho u t h es itation, exacted cancels. Whi le we are aware that scarcely any degree of attention can secure an exact reprint, we have judged that we i m posed no unn ecessary h ar d s hip on publishers, by requiring the correction even of minute inaccuracies t ) which their attention had been previously directed. It is believed that, particularly in the editions recently senetioned by us ; a very high degree of accuracy has thus been atteina It was explained in our former reports, that while the license granted by the Lord Advocate can protect only au exact reprint of an authorised edition, the board did not conceive themselves to be precluded, by the terms of the instructions received from your Majesty, from al lowing the correction of a manifest error of pnp author ised edition, by the preferable reading of another authorised edition. They have continued to act on this liberal interpretation of the terms of your Majesty's in structions, adhering scrupulously, however, to the rule of sanctioning no altered reading which was not sup ported by a previous authorised edition, and which at the same time did not appear, on mature consideration, to be an improvement on the edition printed from. It is with no ordinary feeling of satisfaction, that the Board bear testimony to the laudable anxiety manifested by most publishers to render their editions of the Sacred Scriptures as nearly perfect as possible. The regulation adopted from the first by the Board, in regard to impressions 'from stereotype plates, by which it is provided that every impression taken after an interval—that is, after the plates have been removed from the press—shall be held to constitute a new edi tion, has been stedfastly adhered to, and experience has fully evinced the just and necessary grounds on which it was established. Numerous instances have come under our observation, in which, from the chipping or break ing of the plates, letters, and points, and sometimes entire words, have been either partially or altgoether effaced, so as to disfigure the page, and in many cases to obscure the sense. It is indispensably necessary, therefore, that the plates should be frequently and care fully examined. By the rule prescribed by the board, this important object has been fully attained. Publishers, aware that each successive impression taken after an in terval must be submitted for our inspection, find that they best consult their own interest, by keeping their plates in a state of thorough repair. But while in the cases in which the type used has been of an ordinary size, the observance of the regula tion, now noticed has been found sufficient to secure a distinct and unmutilated text, the result has not been equally satisfactory where an extremely small type has been used. In the latter case, it has been shown by ex• perience that, in the course of printing off even a single edition, the types frequently sustain material injury. The same edition may happen, therefore, to be of unequal merit; and it obviously results from such a contingency, that the character of an edition cannot be prwisely ascertained from the copy of it stibmlttdd to the - bard. Whether the great liability of the plates to deterioration arises from the extreme smallness of the type made use of, or from substituting for the presswork the power of steam for manual labour, is a question which we are not competent, and, which, happily, we were not called upon to discuss. On the point of fact our experience left no room for doubt, and we felt that there was devolved upon us, in consequence, a very solemn responsibility. The view taken by us of our duty, in the circum stances to which reference has been made, was submitted to your Majesty in our last report. In a casein which the imperfect typography of the editions brought before us was imputable, in no degree, to carelessness on the part of the publishers, but resulted from a form of publi cation which had been adopted with highly commendable views, we were disposed, in the first instance, to exercise the powers entrusted to us with all possible leniency. But while yielding to this disposition, we satisfied our selves, in regard to the first impressions taken from the plates, with exacting cancels only where they were imperatively required by the sense, and with pointing out minor blemishes for correction in subsequent editions, the publishers were distinctly warned by us, that a con tinuance of such leniency was not to be expected by them, and that a plain and entire text would be after wards unconditionally insisted on. We have sub sequently acted in accordance with the intimation thus given, exacting cancels in all cases in which the sacred text was not presented in a distinct and clearly legible form. The cancels required were, for some time, nume rous ; and we are aware that the enforcing of our rule was attended, in several instances, with considerable hardship. In one case, so many cancels were exacted, that an edition of the Bible was abandoned after the work was considerably advanced. The duty which we were called upon to discharge was felt by us to be a pain ful one ; but we felt, at the same time, that no consider ation could warrant us in shrinking from the full respon sibilities of the solemn trust reposed in us by your Ma jesty. We record, with unmingled pleasure, the grati fying fact, that many, indeed most, of those publishing privileged works under our authority, have been equally forward with ourselves to have every blemish removed from their respective editions. But while the course which we have pursued in regard to the smaller stereotyped editions has been generally allowed to be both reasonable in itself and such as our duty prescribed to us, it seems likely to result in the abandonment of such editions for the future. Since the intention of publishing the edition of the Bible, to which we have above adverted, was relinquished, a period of nearly twelve months has elapsed, and no new proposal to print the Scriptures in the same diminutive sip of type has been received. Other facts might be adduced by U 3 having a similar bearing. Notwithstanding the great improvements that have been recently made in stereotype printing, the conviction seems to be gaining ground that, under a certain size of type, it cannot be used with advantage. In cases where great accuracy is required, the expense of cancelling the unavoidable blemishes which attend it, leaves no profit from the sale of the work. That the publication of the smaller stereotyped editions of the Scriptures should be aban doned, will be a matter of regret to none who duly ap preciate the value to the reader of a clear and distinct text. Soon after the transmission of our last report, com plaints reached us from several quarters of the imper tation into Scotland, and extensive sale in the Scotch market, of various unauthorised editions of the Scriptures printed and published in England. Parties publishing priviliged works under the authority of the board, and yielding a ready compliance, often to the serious dimuni don of their profits, with every regulation prescribed by us, reasonably demanded that they should be protected in the enjoyment of their just rights, and secured from the competition of publishers not subject to any such restrictions. They alleged that while they did not shrink from the equal and honourable rivalry which they were required to maintain with your Majesty's printers in England, and with the English Universi ties, it was impossible for them to prevent their works from being undersold by editions prepared at less ex pense, because with a less careful regard to a distinct and accurate text. But reasonable as the complaint which was urged appeared to be, there were circumstances connected with the case which were felt by the Board to involve it in much difficulty. One of the publications complained of had been freely circulated throughout the United King dom for a period of upwards of twenty years, without challenge from the English or Scotch patentees, or either of the English Universities ; and, though an equally extended prescription could not be pleaded for the others, yet they, too, had been sold openly in Eng land for a considerable time, and they contained, besides, an amount of notes, or marginal references, which might be thought to exempt them from the privilege of the board. The board, after anxious deliberation, unani mously resolved to submit the question for the opinion of counsel, and a memorial for the information of counsel was accordingly prepared under their direction. The opinion received, which, however, on a fuller statement of facts, was afterwards, in reference to the work that had been so long tolerated by the former patentees, con siderably modified, was favourable to the privileges of the board, and recommended that immediate steps should be taken, by suspension and interdict, against the publishers of the unauthorised editions. The board, having procured the concurrence of the law officers of the Crown, proceeded to act on this opinion, and, with the exception of the particular publication in reference to the illegality of which some doubts had been expressed, obtained interdict; from the Court against the further sale of the several editions complained of. But the case now assumed a new aspect, from an offer made by the publishers against whom legal proceedings had been thus instituted, to withdraw from the Scotch mar ket the interdicted editions, and to replace them by other editions of the same works submitted for the judgment of the board, and corrected at their dis cretion, on the same conditions with privileged works printed and published in Scotland, It was immedi ately perceived by the board that the bearing of this overture on the prosecution which they bad entered would be most material. It would eeahle the parties prosecuted to plead that, by the process raised against them, it was attempted to suppress in Scotland works sold in England, without opposition either from the patentees or the lJniversities, notwithstanding an offer to bring these works into the Scotch market, sub ject to every provision for an accurate text which the Scotch board had deemed it necessary to prescribe. They might further contend that such proceedings were in violation, if not of the letter, yet of the spirit of your Majesty's instructions to the board, as tending to throw obstacles in the way of free competition, and conse quently to enhance the price of the inspired ' volume. It would be an additional argument against the prohibition sought to be imposed, that the overture submitted would still leave the parties from whom it proceeded subject to the peculiar disadvantage of losing the drawback on paper allowed to the privileged publisher. Impressed with the weight of these considerations, the board, after maturely deliberating upon the matter, unanimously concluded that it would be their duty to accede to the proposal which bad been made to them, if they should be certified of their competency, in terms of the warrant granted by your Majesty, to entertain such proposal. They directed, therefore, that a full o a f s e the should Crown b e ply n a t r h e e d s a t n a d te submitted e nt lad statement tbo eftohree lawthe moof,m the Learned earned Counsel were of opinion that the board did not possess the requisite powers to sanction the overture which bed been received, but suggested that tta the ease was of a novel character, it was desirable that application should be made to your Majesty far additional instructions. With this suggestion the lee4rd entertaining an anxious desire that the question should be authoritatiycly datermined, were forward to comply ; and they immediately made the appeal to your Majesty, which was answered by the new Instructions dated Jan. 1845. These instructions, which agree in every particu lar with the views, both of their privileges and their duty which they themselves were led to entertain, have been most satisfactory to the board. Provision, it ap pears to them, has been thus made for giving the fullest effect to the gracious desire of your Malesty, already ad verted to, "of lessening, as far as possible, the cost price of the works falling under the privilege of the board, by opening the painting and publishing of the same to free competition, in so far as is consistent with security for the correctness of the text." The board, by the same means, have been relieved of the painful duty which might have otherwise devolved upon them, of having to appear in court, without any plea of equity to urge in support of their suit, as complainers against the free and unrestrained circulation of the word of God, Forms of declaration, licence, &c., adapted to the instructions recently received, are subjoined in the appendix. Any attempt to import unauthorised editions now that means have been provided for securing to respectable publishers the benefit of free competition under the superintendence of the board, they will feel it to be their duty most strenuously to resist. They are happy to be able to state that, under the instructions, no complaint upon this point has been preferred to them. From the decisive measures that were taken some years ago fur the suppression of spurious editions published in Scot land, the complaints of the fair trader in regard to such editions have latterly been of rare occurrence. It is hoped that, by the determination which has been evinced by the board to persevere in those measures, all ground of complaint will be speedily done away. In their first report, the board informed your Majesty of their design of preparing and publishing a standard edition of the Scriptures, and of the principles on which they proposed to carry that de s ign int o effnt. It was intimated in a subsequent report that the necessary pre parations were in a state of considerable advancement, and that certain booksellers in this city had been autho rised by the board to issue a prospectus of the proposed work. A copy of the prospectus was subjoined as an appendix to the report. It was the purpose of the board to publish the work by subscription, as no independent means of defraying the expenses of publication were available to them. In the hope which they had cherished, however, that a sufficient number of subscribers would be obtained to warrant them in proceeding with the undertaking, they were doomed to be disappointed. After the prospectus had been for many months before the public, it appeared that only a few subscribers had come forward, and that there was no likelihood that the number would be ma terially increased. The board were willing to have altered-tito form of the w9tlE.• 'to meet the views ofpub fishers, but thi. expense, under any form was foind to be-so - dortsiderable," that - no respectable p u blisher would undertake it, except on terms involving the members of the board in personal liabilities which they could not be expected to incur. In these circumstances, the board, of date 30th March, 1843, as they could not agree to the conditions of publication proposed to them, found them selves constrained, though with much reluctance, to suspend proceedings in reference to the intended stand ard edition. No opportunity of resuming, under more favourable auspices, the design thus relinquished, has since presented itself. The great advantages anticipated from opening, to free competition, the printing of the Inspired Volume, &c., in respect alike of the reduction of prices, and a more extensive circulation, will appear, it is presumed, ' from the statement which we have now to submit to your Majesty, to have been more than realised. It will be seen, that in a pecuniary point of view alone, these advantages are far from being inconsiderable. But when attention is directed to the fact, that by the re duction of price which has taken place, the word of God has been brought within the means, and has actually come into the possession of many thousands of your Majesty's subjects to whom it was formerly in great justly affirmed, or altogether, inaccessible, it may be affirmed, that the importance and magnitude of the be nefit conferred are indeed incalculable. In a question respecting the circulation of the Sacred Scriptures, the pecuniary view of the case loses all value for itself, and is felt to be of moment only as it affords an index of the comparatively free, and it may be hoped triumphant, course of inspired truth. It will render the subjoined returns more distinct, if we classify them under the several heads of Bibles, New Testaments, Psalms, techisms, &c. _ BIBLES.—Since the date of our last Veport, May, 1842, there have been published, under the authority of the board, sixty editions of the Bible. We regret that it is not in our power to ascertain the number of copies of which the editin; consisted that were published previ ously to January, 1844. But until some time after pro vision was made for allowing drawback of duty, on the paper used in printing the works falling under the privi lege of the board, the number of copies contained in each edition, was not required to be specified. It was only in August or September, 1843, that it was rosolved, on the suggestion of the Commissioners of Excise, that there should be inserted in the license the number of. copies of which the edition for which it was granted should consist. Few of the editions for which license was then granted were published before January, 1844 ; and hence it is only from the latter date that a correct account of the number of copies can be g iven. From January, 1844, to January, 1845, sixteen eitions, of the Bible were published, consisting in round numbers, of two hundred thousand copies, goal January, 1845, to January, 1846, twenty-one editions were published, the number of copies amounting to 312,000. From January, 18411, to May, 184 G, five editions, consisting cif upwards of 47,000 copies, have been published ; and there are several editions now under the judgment of the board. From a return made to Parliament by your Majesty's late printers, for the years 1831-1836 inclusive, it ap pears that the largest number of Bibles printed by them in any one of those years amounted to only 10 5, 600, while the average yearly num b er f or t h e period speci fied fell short of nO,OOO. The increase, therefore, in the number of Bibles annually printed in Scotland at the present time, as compared with the yearly number printed from 1831 to 1837, considerably exceeds the ratio of three to one, The great increase which has re sulted from the abolition of the monopoly is placed in a still more imposing point of view when we revert to the fact, that the number of Riblos printed under the su perintendence of the Scotch Board during the year end ing January, 1846, exceeds the total number printed by authority in Great Britain during either of the years 1832, 1833. In the former of those years, the number of Bibles printed in Great Britain was 234,420, and in the latter 303,796. The largest number printed in Great Britain in any one year, from 1831 to 1837, was 450,778. But the increase in the number of Bibles printed is not more remarkable nor more gratifying than the greatly reduced price at which copies of the inspired volume are sold. It is undeniably to the reduction of price which free competition has effected, that the in creased circulation is to be attributed. On comparing a catalogue of Bibles, New Testaments, Psalm and Prayer Books, &c., published by your Majesty's late printers in 1838, a bout a year before the expiry of their patent, with another published by the same parties in 1845, a great reduction of price will be found to have been made on every edition of the Bible sold by them. For exam ple, the quarto Bible, with Blayney's marginal refer ences, pica letter, royal paper, including Psalms and Paraphrases, has been reduced from 11. Is. 3d. to lls.; the octavo Bible, small pica letter, royal paper, with Psalms and Paraphrases, from Bs. 3d, to 4s. 4d.; the 12mo. Bible, nonpariel, crown paper, with Psalms and Paraphases, from 2s. Bd, to As.. and the 24m0. Bible, pearl letter, with Psalms and P araphrases, from 2s. ad. to 9d. The editions in which the greatest reduction of price has been made are the 12mo. nonpareil and the 24m0. pearl, the cost of the former having been reduced 52, and the latter nearly 65 per cent. The editions now noticed are those in most frequent use. From the extensive sale of the 12mo. and 24m0. Bibles, the saving effected by their greatly reduced cost amounts to a very large sum. It may be inferred from the fre quency with which the same publishers undertake new editions of these works that the sale keeps pace with the publication. Proceeding on this assumption, there were sold of the two Bibles during the year 1844-5, 12mo. 53,000, and 24m0. 138,000. The saving on the former, for this year, comparing the price with those of 1838, amounted to upwards of 2,670/., and on the latter to about 10,062/., making a total saving on the two of no less a sum than 12,9321. In 1845-6 the number sold were, 12mo. 26,000, and 24m0. 190,000 ; and the saving effected amounted to upwards of 15,8041. The whole saving on these two Bibles, for the two years, wait there fore 28,7361. The above calculations have been made according to the reduced prices given in the price catalogue, pub lished by your Majesty's late printers in September 1845. In the revised price list, published February, 1846, by the Free Bible Press Company, Coldstream, the c a o r s pr et stillic es of further the reduced. Bibles In have thisnow b list the e n speci fied2e bible is offered at 101 d., and the 24m0, at 64d., being a reduction from the prices of 1838, on the former of 58, and on the latter of nearly 76 per cent. Whether an inferior quality of paper be used in these astonishingly cheap editions, the board pretend not to determine. They are printed in a clear and distinct type. since May, 1842, seventy-five editions. Tw en ty-fo ur have N IEI beenTESTAMENTS.--Of published,under the the aut hority N w Testam ent o ending Janaary, editions were published in the y 1846, sixteen copies. In the year ending January , ber ocopies amount • editions were published, the number have been published ing to upwards of 285,000.theerrde, since January last three editions, consisting of 96,000 copies; and one edition is now before the board. The 1845, and consisted, in round numbers , of a 490,000 largest number printed by your Majesty's late printers, in any of the years from 1891 to 1837, was 105,840, and the annual average for the six years did not much ex ceed 79,000. The largest number printed by authority in Great Britain, during any of the years now specified, was 534,450, and the least, 250,259. The New Testaments most in use are the 12mo. brevier, and the 24m0. minion. On comparing the price catalogues issued by your Majesty's late printers for the years 1838 and 1845, it appears that the prize of the former has been reduced about 41 per cent., and that of the latter exactly 40 per cent, In the Coldstream price list, the cost of the 12mo. New Testament has been re duced nearly 55 per cent. In the same list the price affixed to the minion 18mo. New Testament, with pearl Psalms, is 3d., while in 1838, the 24m0. New Testament, minion letter with pearl Psalms, cost 10d. METRICAL PRALMS.—Since May, 1842, ninety-five editions of the Psalms have been published under the superintendence of the board. Of these editions were published during the year ending January, 1845, thirty four, consisting in round numbers of 480,000 copies; during the year ending January 1846, twenty-five, of which the number of copies amounted to upwards of 204,000 ; and since January last, nine, containing an aggregate of 96,000 copies. The editions of the Psalms, published separately, however, by no means exhibit the full amount of the annual shares. It frequently happens that, in the licenses taken out by publishers for editions of the Bible or New Testament, the Psalms are included. This arrangement, inasmuch as the return made to Par- Hanlon t by your Majesty's late printers, for the years The reduction in price, since 1838, varies from 25 to 33 one-third per cent. CONFESSION OF FAITH.—OnIy six editions of the Confession of Faith have been published within the period to which our report refers. Three of these edi tions were published before January 1844 ; one, of 5,000 copies, in Anzust of that year ; one, of 10,000 copies, in February, 1845 ; and one, of 12,000 copies, in January, 1846. There were printed, according to the return to which we have so often referred, during the years 1831, 1836, inclusive, in all 18,982 copies. Seve ral editions were published immediately after the insti tution of the board, which may account for the compara tively limited number that has been undertaken of late years. The reduction of price in the 12mo. edition, since 1838. amounts to 43 one-third per cent. BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER.—TweIve editions of the Book of Common Prayer have been published since May, 1842, of which six, consisting of 108,470 copies, were published in 1844, and three, of 34,500 copies, in 1845. Only 17,932 copies appear to have been pub lished by authority in Scotland during the period em braced by the Parliamentary return, to which reference has been made. Since 1838 the 32m0 Prayer Book has been reduced in price upwards of 57 per cent. We flatter ourselves that the brief statement now humbly submitted, of our proceedings On the discharge of the duties required of us, and of the great &dist. tages which have resulted from the institution of the board. will be acceptable to your Majesty. We believe ourselves fully justified in cherishing the persuasion that the inestimable blessing of a greatly exteuded cir culation of the word of God has been obtained, while not the slightest compromise has been made of the cor rectness of the sacred text. To secure to all classes of our fellow subjects, in the exercise of the trust reposed in us, the benefit of accurate and distinct editions of the Scriptures, and other standards of our faith, we beg to assure your Majesty, shall ever be the object of our most anxious care.

Veruilghen, who spoke against the convention, M. Lebeau rose, and treating the question of the customs,' union (with France), explained all that passed on this question during his administration. He concluded by saying that the customs' union is at present impossible, that it cannot take place till after the establishment of free trade. M. de Theux spoke next, and the general dismssion was closed. M. Dumortier proposed an amendment, forming Art. 2, which the Government adopted, because it explained the spirit of the treaty. This amendment is to this effect, that the disposition of the Royal decrees of 1843 and 1844, which the treaty does abrogate, shall have the force of law. Art. 1 was then agreed to by a majority of thirty seven to twenty-two, and M. Dumortier's amendment was likewise adopted ; the whole, with this one amend meat, was agreed to, by a majority of 35 to 22 (Messrs. Lesoime and Delfossa dit not vote at all). M. Mercier, our Minister Plenipotentiary in Holland, is expeoted at Brussels to-day ; and we again affirm in spite of the contradiction of the Journal de Bruxelles and of the Independant, that the treaty with Hollandis signed, and that it will be presented to the Chamber to-morrow. M. Mercier, who is to bring the treaty concluded with Holland, had not arrived this evening at half-past eight o'clock. The King, whose return to Lacken was ex pected this evening, has not yet arrived. His Majesty is expected to-morrow. The rye harvest has commenced in the environs of Brussels, and promises to be moat abundant. THE HAGUE, JULY 3.—His Majesty the King this morning, accompanied by his Serene Highness the Duke of Nassau, went to the station of the Dutch Railway„ where he took a cordial farewell of him. The Duke of Nassau, before his departure, made considerable presents to the officers of the royal household. LANGSTRAAT, JULY 3.—From all places in this neighbourhood, from Hensden and from Altona, we have the most favourable accounts respecting the crop of potatoes. The crop of hay has much exceeded the gene ral expectation, to which the dry weather nas not a little contributed. The oats, barley, and buck-wheat--in word, all the standing crops—have the most satisfactory appearance, and there is every reason to expect an abundant harvest. THE HAGUE, JULY 7.—M. Mercier, Minister Pleni potentiary to the King of Belgium at the Hague, left yesterday, on his return to Brussels. ADISTERDAM, JULY 6.—The King, accompanied by the Secretary and his Aid-de-Camp, Karnebeck, arrived here this afternoon at half-past four o'clock, by a special train, and immediately proceeded to the Dock, where the Leeuw steam-boat was waiting for his Majesty. We hear that this steam-boat will carry his Majesty to the Nieuwe Diep, to inspect the Anne Paulowno P' olden. and then to Friesland. BELGIAN FUNDS.—Baussms, July 7. Actual Debt, 2% per Cent . .
