B UTLER'S ANCIENT AND MODERN ATLAS. Longman, London, 1835. This is a most useful publication, and such as no reader of history can afford to dispense with. 1)r. tniler not only furnishes us with a collection of m odern maps, with all the most recent discoveries at the North Pole, in the heart of Africa, and along the , i mmense range of Australian coast, introduced into t hem ; hut he gives us also an Atlas of ancient Geo glaPhy, with the names of places, kingdoms, Sze., Marked down in the map, just as we find them men tioned in the pages of the old classical writers. Con sidering the accuracy of these two Atlases, and the handsome manner in which they are engraved, they are singularly cheap ; and for the convenience of reference an index is attached to each part, so that the places which the reader may wish to turn to, may be found in an instant, without the slightest difficulty. MITFORD'S GREECE, Vol. IV. Cadell, London, 1835. The present volume of this popular and well-known Work, commences with the reign of Hieron, King of S yracuse, and the establishment of independent demo cracies in the Sicilian cities, and closes with the battle ° f lEgospotarai and the termination of the Peloponne -4144 war. The most interesting portions of the volume the chapters which treat of Alcibiades, •wlicre the il tatorian has evidently tasked his powers to the utmost. The title-page is embellished with three curious en graved specimens of old silver Corinthian coins. SE. 1.-ECTIONS from COBBETT'S POLITICAL WORKS. Nos. I, 11. J. Cobbett, London, ► 333. As this selection is edited by the authors, two sur !lying sons, who of course are most interested in doing J u stice to their father's reputation, we may be quite sure that it will be a useful and able one. The first Number is headed with a brief Memoir of Cobbett, after which follow sonic extracts from his first political tr acts which were published in America under, the u aille of Peter Porcupine," but as many of the per 'end allusions in these celebrated tracts require illus tration, short, pertinent notes are affixed, which free the text from all obscurity. A sixpenny Number, we learn, w ill be published every week till the whole is com pleted, which the Editors conclude will be in about t wo years from the present date. We trust, however, that they will not confine their selections to the political • Parts of their father's writings, but extend them to his "Rural Rides," " Cottage Economy," and " Advice t° Young Men ;" for many of these productions, though Written in haste, on the spur of the moment, contain. specimens of description, and many sound Practical remarks on life, manners, &c., the results of e Verience and close observation. THE PICTURE OF DUBLIN. Curry, Dublin, 1835. A very serviceable guide.;book, illustrated with en gravings of all the most admired buildings in and about tl ie Irish metropolis, and containing an account, just °I a fitting length, of every object and institution worthy of notice, together with an accurate description ° t f th e surrounding country, and of its geology. As he work has already gone through an edition, this 'lief account of it must suffice. NICOLL'S POEMS. Tait, Edinburgh. Th e author of these poems—which have already r eceiv e d a favourable notice in Tait's Magazine—is, w e are informed, a very young, man, and if so, his Verse s do credit to his judgment, for there is little of t he crudity or haste of youthful composition about t hem, the majority being finished with much care and kll. When, however, we say the ". majority," we must be understood to allude exclusively to those I°ems which are written in plain English ; for as to those which are penned in the Scotch dialect, we, on 1 1 116 side the Tweed, cannot understand them'; and h ave, besides, a rooted dislike to a language which, h owever euphonious and appropriate to those who can re ad and pronounce it, is only to be endured, by an u ntaught Southron, in the pages of Burns and Scott. : W hat Englishman can possibly make out the mean -134. g--or even give utterance to it, without provoking a UlSlocation of the jaw—of this couplet ? “ Syne the hale kintra's clashes he screeds them tiff han' ; He's a gabbin• bit birkie, the auld beggar-man." ' )\ "! iil lt we have said that Mr. Nicoll's English poems 7 . e creditable to his fancy and judgment; in support opinion we quote the following, which is enti lc,9ed" A Thought," and which is both well conceived atttj well expressed Yon sail on the horizon's verge, Doti] like a wandering spirit seem— , etp A shadow in a sea of light— • The passing of a dream. A moment more, and it is gone ! We know not bow—we know not where— It came—an instant stay'd—and then It vanished into air. t Such are we all—we sail awhile In joy, on life's fair summer sea— . A moment—and our bark is gone Into eternity , 4 , 4 CHURCH-RATE PERSECUTIONS. I .% r,„ ••••AfTER TO THE RE'. Z. COBB, SUII•CORATB OF SUNGAY ST. MARY. 1 ; nr A NONCONFORMIST. "911(1 Edition.

It is a passage f Nu the speech of the Rev. Mr. Cobb, the President ; ) f . th e Bungay Vestry Meeting, as taken from our co 11111Ths o f September 24, 1835 :—" The Rev. Mr. C °bb interrupted the speaker, to remark that he had I,l ''msecontributed to support the Catholic Church ti a 1 0teign country, and thought it his duty to sup -1)(41 iwhatever Church was established." The writer Nitrayenes this principle 'with considerable tact, anti 8 " the argumenium ad absurdum with much force. t i If you arc correct, you should expound and expand rule for the edification of your flock.

ECCLESIASTICAL PREFEItNfENTS. Last week the Rev.

Patron the Venerable Archdeacon Macdonald, as Prebendary of Bitton, in the Cathedral Church of Sarum. The Rev. Arthur Hill has been licensed to the Perpe tual Curacy of the Slad, in the parish of Painswick, on the nomination of the Rev. Robert Strong, the Vicar of Painswick. TO THE• EDITOR OF THE SUN. Six—Permit me, through the medium of yeur able Journal, to suggest, (in consequence of the vile treasonable conspiracy which has recently come to light,) the propriety of forming a Guard qf Honour for her Royal Highness, the Princess Victoria, the interesting young heiress to the c rown of these realms. A band of gentlemen enrolled no minally for that express purpose, would display a chivalrous, gallant, and loyal feeling, which would be equally honour able to the popular fair object of its protection, and to the individuals composing it and, at the same time, hurl dis grace and dismay Upon the arch-fiends who are the conspi rators in this universally detested foul affair. I, of course, do not mean to insinuate that such a step is necessary for the safety of Her Royal Highness ; that fair flower wants not in reality such a defence. She has security in public attachment, and in the utter worthlegsness of the being lor.whorn this plot is laid; but it would vmvince Her Royal Highness that there are chivalry and gallantry in the land, ready to protect hee if it were necessary, and show these treacherous miscreants how their villainous machina tions would be met ; —machinations, branded by the most wicked hypocrisy, veiled under the sacred mask of religion, and engendered in those unprincipled Upas Lodges. I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, ANTI-TRAITOR. Nov. 13th, 1935. his Grace the Duke of Devonshire is prolonging his stay at Chatsworth for a short time.

Four others were " no . course." A report was very prevalent in Westminster H a ll yesterday that Mr. Justice Vaughan had resigned his seat on the 'bench. of the Court of Common Pleas. Though we believe there is no truth in the report at present, the gen tlemen . of the . long robe were not long in naming two or thr,:e gentlemen, one of whom is a single gown, as the Learned Judge's successor. To the last inquiry after the Learned Judge's health, we are happy to state much more favourable answers have been reeeived. Mr. O'CONNELL.—Extract of a private letter from Mr. O'Connell :—" I would thank you again to contradict a paragraph' which is running the round of the 'newspapers, stating that I am here enjoying - on these mountains the sport of coursing. I hate coursing. I detest gray-hounds. I can scarcely tolerate any man fond of them. My delight you know—is hare hunting with my. beagles. The hares are strollg and numerous, and I hunt every day with nine couple and a half of the first and best beagles in the world. To hear them animatinc , one of our deep and sequestered glens with ten thousand echoes is a rapture ,beyond the reach of polities." - A curious expose of the • Paving Board Commis sioners is likely to take place, to the effect, that not having complied with 'the Act of Parliament, which obliges them to take a new oath of ofii3e, on the accession of a new King, they are disqualified as Commissioners of Paving. The required oath, it appears, was not taken on the acces sion of his present Majesty, William IV., and -the acts of the Paving Board are suPposed, in consequence, to Le null and void.—Dublin Evening Post. At one of the monthly Temperance Meet'ings, held during last week in our city, the Rector of a country parish Stated, in the town of Charleville, a person-who has within some months past been addicted to spirit drinking, came into his house at .eleven o'clock at night, and finding his son (a boy about 12 - years - of age) supplying his (the father's) place at the cbandling work, he seized the youth, and plunged him into the boiling liquid! The boy now lies in a most deplorable state, and it is still a doubt whether he will recover. On the relating of this act of inhuman cruelty a thrill of horror ran through the meeting.—Curti Herald. FROM , •A .CORRESPO,NpENT...- HA.RTLEPOOL . DOCKS AND RAlLwAY.—Hartlepool' has for some months shown itself distinctly to be a harbour superior to any other in the north for the dispatch of business in the coal trade, being accessible in any weather to ships of the largest di mensions in that trade, and progressively capable of any improvement by the aid of its powerful Sluices, whilst th . 9 bars of our northern harbours, and their exposed situations, preclude the passage of ships to and from the sea in tem pestuous weather. The railway is now made sufficient to permit the commodious delivery of coals from 'Thornley Colliery, and will in a very short time be open also to two more collieries which are preparing to use it, besides the certainty of Lord. Howden's and Mr. Burdon's'coal being immediately brought •into the market. It does not, how ever, follow that tl:e general proprietary .should be pre vented • from the advantage of other collieries using the harbour and railway, when an additional line of railway of a few miles to the west from the \Vingatc branch might open a communication to the . coal-field near the Aucklands, at a moderate expense , which would very materially shorten th e ir approach to the sea, and avoid the difficult navigation of the Tees.. To the notice of the proprietors of the Hartlepool Docks and Railway, and of the coal•field in and about the Aucklands, these observations are 'addressed, and parties interested may apply at the Hartlepool way-office, where the plans and estimates of, the proposed branch will shortly be lodged.—Durham Chronicle, Nov. 6, 1835. Two OLD COCKS.—Lord Stowell, the Fatker of the House of Peers, completed his 91st year on Tl4trsday the 0 9th ult.—His brother, the Earl of Eldon, travelled a long journey to dine with him, -being himself 86. What a vista to look back upon, has been the life of each of theic sons of a Newcastle coal-shed-keeper! Each tutor of his College at Oxford—each the first lawyer in the world in their respective walks—each, by merit and long service, a Peer of the Realm—and each living under William IV., to meet and talk together of what they saw and did nuclei' George 11. PUBLIC DINNER.—Last Tuesday the Tories at Cork gave their County Member, Mr. Longfield, a dinner. Upon this occasion a reverend gentleman, but too well known in Ireland—Mr. Beresford, dealt forth damnation, in the coarsest and most violent terms, against all those whose creed, in government and religion, was not in accor dance with his own. The only excuse we can conceive for the use of language so discreditable is, that it was uttered after dinner. • IRELAND.—III relation to the state of this Part of the United Kingdom, the Dublin Evening Post justly re marks that " the system of inventing, or grossly exaggerate ing outrages in most parts of Ireland has long existed, and has heretofore been found a most profitable occupation by those engaged in this singular native manufacture, which, we believe, was never practised—certainly not any such ex tent—in any other country in the world."—Llt would be curious and instructive to sec detailed the process of this sort of mendacious manufacture. The fabrication of out rages is a trade of which the Tories haVe long enjoyed the monopoly in Ireland.] REDUCTION OF THE DUTY ON PAPER.---I have been informed, on good authority, that Ministers have come to the determination of proposing. early next session, a considerable reduction of the duty on paper ; and that it is not their intention, for the present at least, to meddle with the stamp duty on newspapers. By the way, penal ties to the amount of 2001. have been recently awarded by the Dublin Police Magistrates against the proprietors of a defunct morning journal, called Stewart's Despatch, for printing on unstampcd paper. The Proprietors of this con cern lost a considerable sum by their speculation ; but the difficulty of purchasing stamps formed but a very inconsi derable item in the accumulation of embarrassments which led to the death of their journal.—Times Dublin Corres pondent. WIIO KILLED COC7: ROBIN ?—There is a story going the circle of Nottingham, of a circumstance which took place in the parish church of St. Mary, a few. weeks ago, which, if true, and I have no doubt of it, does hut little honour to the Vicar. It is said, that a certain robin took a fancy to the religion of the Church, and was there fore in pretty regular attendance there on the Sundays— that at the late anniversary for the General Hospital and Asylum, poor robin was there also, and while Miss Hopkins was singing some beautiful anthem, the feathered worshipper flew across the church, and perched at the top of the organ, and there he began to swell his little throat to the harmo nious voice_of the singer, much to the admiration and grati fication of every beholder (except one, and that one the Vicar,) who gave instructions to the sexton to shoot it ; but, as if Providence disapproved of the deed, the charge from the gun missed poor robin, and broke several large panes of glass in the house of Mr. Robinson. We are sorry to hear the bird was killed afterwards.—Nottinghrm Review. During the prevalence of the late easterly gales, the officers and men employed in the Preventive Service in this neighbourhood have been kept in a state of unusual acti vity, under the apprehension that persons less interested in biz. Majesty's revenue than themselves might appropriate to their own use certain kegs of gin and brandy which from time to time washed on shore. It is supposed some smugglerS being unable to effect a landing of their illegal cargo, sunk it in deep water, and that the tempestuous weather has detached a portion from the lashings. Several casks have been received at the Custom-house from the Yarmouth, Caister, and Winterton stations, and placed in safe custody. Many barrels of porter have also been Se curedlong, in the vicinity of the above - places, part of the carg o of a vessel lost a short time since bound to Lowesto fte--- Nor wick Gazette. THE BAYEA UX TAPESTRY.—This highly curious relic:, representing the Norman Conquest in lOW, which is is supposed to have been wrought soon af ter the bottle by the Maids of Honour of the Conqueror's Queen. Besides the historical occurrences commemorated in it, there are on the borders of it a great variety of figures ; many at them are grotesque, but . one set of figures represents ploughing, sowing, and harrowing. The plough is not in shape very different. from those i n u se at present, the share, coulter, &c., being very s imilar ; it has, however, ,two small wheels in front, and the person driving is sitting between them, while another man holds the stilts of the plough in the usual manner. The seeds man is represented with a bus dependent from his neck, and the harrow is of a square form : it consists of four strcng, bars of wood, and has three other bars going across it, there being a set of tines and spikes attached to each Of the cross-bars. The horse that draws the harrow is. harnessed with a collar and traces, and a strap over the back, as is the mule by which the plough is drawn, and each has a halter or bridle. It seems clear also that the fair workers of this tapestry must have been acquainted with iEsop's Fables, as in one part of the border a stork is represented with its -bead down the • throat of a fox, While in another a crow is to be seen dropping a piece 'of. cheese down to another wily fox, who professes to admire her voice. A very exec st.lies or coloured plates •of this tapestry has been published, hy the Society of Anti quaries.. FIMVTING APP_OINTMEN7'S.

Sir James then informed the field that he.had heard of an outlaying buck at Quidden ham ; and the hunt immediately started for Eccles Hall, where refreshment - was quickly provided, during which time the huntsman changed his horse and the harriers for buckhounds. Upon arriving at Quiddenham Hall, the Earl of Albemarle, with his usual kindness, came out and informed Mr. Bobby that the buck had lately passed. The hounds were laid on, when a fine four-year-old buck of the King James's breed bounded from a plantation in view of the hounds. The buck was forced to take the park wall, and ran through Kenning ball, Fersfield, North and South Lopham, Blo' Norton, to Botesdale ; from thence he skirted Blo' Norton to the west, crossed the river Ouse to Market Weston, ran through Hop ton, Riddlesworth, Knettishall, to Euston Park, where the hounds where whipped off. The distance, upwards of eighteen raises, was run in two hours and a half. —Norfolk ekronicle. THE MARKETS:-THIS D.X.) COVENT GAR )EN MARKET.

PAPERS Br.LGRADv,' OCT. 25.—The latest accounts from Con stantinople give us at length some,certainty respecting the future form of' Government of Servia. - it. is More than probable that the Constitution whi.ds has been so much talked of is not merely modified, but wholly done away with. The groundless statements contained in several German journals on this subject are corrected as Well by the above • accounts as by - an official article in the Service Gazette of the 11th (23d) of October. This article is as follows : For some time past, but especially since his Highness our Prince Alilosch set out on his journey. to Constantinople, where, thank Heaven, he is now in good health, several foreign journals arouse their readers with the most strange statements relative to the state of Scrvia. In particular, very frequent mention is made of M. Davidowich. Somes times_it r is announced that his Highness has taken bins with him to Constantinople, as t ute well known Secretary. Some times it is announced that he beinr , the sou/ qf the Adminis• tratioa, remains at borne during the absence of the Prince. Now the•journals tell us that M. Davidowich has received from Constantinople the orders of our illustrious Vrinne to have thanksgivings offered up in all the Churches of Servia tor the happy arrival of the Prince at the Capital of the Turkish empire, and the extremely gracious recep tion given him by the Sultan ; now he is spoken of es the only person who has a thorough knowledge of the political situation of Servia and its wants, and every where he is spo ken of as the well known Secretary. Such expressions are fhund in the journals of Augsburg, hamburg, Vienna, and Breslau ;in the Prussian State GuzLqte,..lournal, Frea fiift, and r iu the St. Petersburg Gazette. At first we laughed at all•this, but these assertions being repeated with increased ,cohlidence, they at length excited surprise and disgust. For if it is agreeable to tis When foreign States take an interest in us, and foreign journals publish correct information respecting Servia, it is on the other hand dis agreeable to us to see unfounded and inaccurate statements about SerVia, -circulated throughout Europe. In order to inform the public, and to draw the attent:on of the corres pondents of the journals in question to the incorrectness of their reports, and at the same time, to give Europe Some in telligence respecting Servia, we observe that His High nes:olle Prince, has left for the time "Of his ab sence his illustrious brother; Major-General Jephrens, with a Council of Administration, (in which M. Davidowich does not sit) with instructions to carry on the Government in the same manner as hitherto, to report to the-Prince in extraordinary and difficult cases, and also to send to him to Constantinople, every ten days, the reports of all the mili tary authorities. The statement that M. Davidowich had issued - .orderssfor .thenksgivin , s is wholly ,unfounded, and contrary both to the established order, 'and the Prince's custom. The affairs of religion belong in Servia to the Bishops ; - and if any person had - received a communication on the subjects it Would certainly have -been our archbishop and metttpolitan Peter. However, the bishops, as well all other persons in office, know their duty without being reminded of it. 'But with respect to the. declaration that M. Davidowich is among us, the soul of the Administra tion, the well-known Secretary of State, and the only per son - . who thoroughly understands the political situation of Servia—we are-convinced that M. Davidowich has no such opinion of himself, and is rather ashamed than otherwise, among his-countrymen, of such a declaration. The corres tionilents of the Jeurnals invent much, and often do not know - what, they want. In Servia there is no Secretary of State, and consequently M. Davidowich does not fill that office. Prince•Milosch commands alone, and all the authorities of Servia are created by him. Everything sub sists according, to the monarchical principle under which Servia is happy, with regard to its relations to the Porte and to the Rnsgan empire, its protector. No other person in Servia lnis any political power but himself. All the authorities and all persons arc bound together by a close bond of union ; and' all obey our beloved Prince Milosch for whom we pray that God may bless his return to his own country and the remaining days of his life. CAssce, OCT.- 30.—The well-known Trench • GenerahAllix, formerly in the service of the King of West phalia, has now gained in all the Coth-ts his law-suit re specting the possession of his estate of Frendenthal, in the Electorate of , Hesse, which he purchased under the West phalian Government. It will be remembered, that when the General Was in Frankfort, where he passed several years of his exile frgas France, under the Bourbons, after the hun dred dayu;he being one of the thirty-eight persons banished from 'France, conducted the suit in persOnsand complained to the Diet of the delay of justice. The lawsuit has been pending twenty years.—Supplenient to ~ the Allgemeiae Zcitung, Nov. 8. SPAIN. MADRID, Nov. s.—The money-market of this capital follows the impression so favourably entertained by the ma jority of the people. Ever since Mendizabal took the reins of Governmennt, \v have Observed "a gradual progression for the hetter,• and since Monday last a rather rapid one. Large operations have been made in every sort of scrip, and the debt without interest, which can the day above men tioned was at 11 per cent„. is quoted to-day at 14 for cash. The non-consolidated Vales hav(i also considerably improved, its well as the tihtioi . al portador, bearing an interest of 4 and-.4.per cent. But what principally proves the confidence acquired by the speculators is the circumstance that there is hardly a single time bargain made, and that everything done is for money, the nominal capital of yesterday's ope , rations amounting to nearly 50,000,000 of real's. .A great deal of this improvement is owing, to the tiews received front Andalusia, where the JnntaS of Armament are taking the most active steps to'carrV fbrWard the luinta lately de erc'ed, as well as to raise funds to enable the Government to meet the extraordinary expenses of the . armament, by which means it is generally anticipated all ruinous loans will be avoided, the amount of the voluntary contributions being calculated at about 70,000,000, and the sum which will . be obtained by the tax imposed on those who may seek to exempt themselves front the decreed (pinta at between 70,000,000 and 80,000,000 more: It is'to-day reported that thchands of Quilez, and the Serrador have met with a serious defeat, and that the lat ter had been made a prisoner. It is even said that. the Government has received an express, but though I am generally faVoured with information from the War-office, nothing has reached me yet from that quarter. . The. Die rio Mercanti( of Catalonia contains the follow- ing short narrative :—" It appears that the labourers who in this city (Barcelona) are pulling dow❑ the convent of St.. Joseph, have found inwalled a monk, who; it is sup posed by some, was condemned to this horrid•punishment on account of his incorrigible conduct, and by others for his liberal principles. Whichever :of these conjectures be adopted, we cannot bUt execrate a mode of punishment to which be certainly has fallen a victim. .His body showed that he must have died in that sepulchre about two mouths since, though, by his half-eaten habit,. it is .evident he had been immured in that prison for a considerable time." Every day the Gazelle contains some noble trait of patriotism, worthy of being preserved ; but there is one to-day, which merits to be written in the tablets of fame. A poor overseer of police of this capital, and his children, have made over to the Goyeroment, for the fund intended for the armament, an estate worth 60,000 reals, which constitutes the whole of the property theypessess in this world ; and, besides, the father gives up a fourth of his small salary, until the termination of the war. The Government, unwilling to mortify them by a refusal, have accepted their generous offer. I could quote many other traits of disinterestedness, but' this one will suffice to slioW there 'are in this country men worthy of epjoying the blessings of liberty. Would such as these have stepped. forward in the way they now, do two months ago? 'Nay, would a Cano Manuel, at present the chief magistrate of Spain,. President of the Royal Court, have consented that his four ehiltblen - should have enlisted us volunteers, as they have done, :Ind' seen theM march with a muske;. on theif shonlders as simple soldiers ? how wonderfully must the alierat:oti be in the public mind when men above the fear of being accused as• Carlists step forward in the man ner stated I The alteration is, indeed, so great, that the Spain of this day admits of no comparison with the Spain of Tureno's time. It would seem as if an immense power had' been applied to the machinery of the. Government, actually realizing a saying of the Count da Taipa . ,•,who iu one of the discussions in the Upper Chamber of Portugal, of which Ile is a member, said that lllendizabal seemed to his honourable colleagues as necessary to . Spain. as the 'steam-engine was to England.: lle has, indeed, so com pletely succeeded in concentrating the energies of the na tion that he has created a power equal to that produced by that. agent.

The peculiar character of our nation is that confidence which is the characteristic of noble minds. When thi s . i s founded upon bases so solid as the decrees ttay last days, perhaps the most memorable period 'oi• all our history, and when an august Queen, whose name in nor future annals will ever be united with liberty and pob.;ic happiness, has said to the Spaniards—" Trust in. tn,y, I trust iityou:' then is there no sforce capable of disturbir g the intimate union between the Crown and the peoples , then no sacrifice appears great, no difficulty invincible ; then are exhibited to the admiring world prodigies of self-donial and of pa triotism. The passions arc, - cahned, interests are silenced, the beloved voice of the country alone is heard, always more beloved when is proceeds from the throne itself.

POPULATION OF A LGlERS.—lianulan, a living Moorish author, whose work on Algiors bas been trans lated into French,' begins his book with a bold assertion in the first instance, that the population amounts to 10,000,000, This conjecture is rather too gay, as it would imply this s 'Nage country to be nearly as thickly populated as Eng land. Shalor t.ltinks that they scarcely exceed 1,000,000, others coluptite them at 2,000,000 ; and, though I confess I am. only guessing through the guesses. of others, I can scarcely suppose the n hole popUlation to exceed. the latter amount. Dr. Shaw says that according to the most exact osservations which he could make himself, or receive from others, the length of the kingdom from Twubt on the cast, to the river Zaine on the nest, mly be a little more than 490 man ; but here 1)r.

TH breadth of' the :kingdom is very unequal ; iu one part it exhibits only miles between the Meditemmean on the north;and the Zabara or IViert on the south ; but to the cast Ward of Algiers it is very considerable, and Dr.. Shaw tLinkS that at a medium the extent of ‘chat tiAe Arabs Tcllie (meaning, that is, the land proper for tillage) may be Called 60 miles. Now, if we multiply say 500 miles it. length by 60 for breadth, the result will be' 00,000 square miles ; the allowance of 100 heads to a - mile would make out the population to be 3,000,000 ; but for a people half migratory this allowance,' is too large, and the whole re-. gooey does not probably contain above half that number..

Subse quently,however, she,learnt from the lips of her v er y r i va l that Janet was shortly to be married, and the fatal projett entered her head which she eventually put in execution.

DUEL AT 13OULOGNE.-On Friday last a hostila meeting took place between Mr. Dicii.enson and Mr. Symons, two English residents in Boulogne-sur-Mer. , ' The circumstancts out of which the meeting grew were rather singular. A series of public balls, tinder the denomination o: "'Bachelors' Balls," has lately been commenced here, as one of the numberless devices for the promotion of gaiety for which this place is celebrated. In order to secure the respectability of these Boulogne meetings (to make them ".select"), a " committee of four," two French and two English, was appointed, expressly to scrutinize character. 'l'o execute the ditties of an inquest upon cle.racter—to hold the• scales equally between damaged reputations—in such a place as Boulogne, was, it must he confessed, no very easy or'triviable task. or this, probably, the oliW hands were aware when, shrieking from the responsibility themselves, they appoi: tsd two Of the youngest neso in the town (j'io the semi of an English physician, and Mr. Symons,' son of one of the English Clergymen - here, to act as scrutineers on behalf of their compatriots. Among their edicts of exclusion, one was unhappily • di rected agaiost an English Colonel of high professional reputation, who, although furnished with a tickets by one of the bachelor. subscrihers, was refused admittance to the 'as seinbly. Upon demanding an explanation of the " Cotn- • mittec," be was referred from one to another, each in tom excusing himself, and making liberal professions of respect, &c., to the Colonel. The reply was that thtt.:party w ith whom the objection originated :oust he declared, or time Committee would be held severally responsible in their ewn persons ; aid in pursuance of this determination, Captain (;ronorr (the late Member of Parlianient), waited upon, 3.1 r. ,Symons, as No. 1, in the intended Aril:: serieß.
