ETIENNE boasts, that the work is the theme of all Europe, nay, that it makes even the most wary Cabinets speak out. The Number bebire me contains a very excellent c(mstitutional article of M. de CONSTANT, the rest is all " lea ther and prunella ;" one of the articles, entitled " The Hermit of Guiana," by M. Juuv, who possesses considerable talents as a writer for the Boudoir, might pass, if viewed in that light ; but when the author pledges himself to the anthen ti, ity of the fact, we then look at it with other eyes. The story is, that a Lady was delivered of a soh, who was born blind ; her sister, then preg n ki.t, was so struck and so much hurt at it, that she - brought fin th a daughter blind also .'! Tlre anecdote details the loves of the blind children, from whom their parents took care to conceal 'their misfortunes, even carefully avoiding giving them any ideas of the advantages of sight ; but sill the children grew up, and began to think of marrying; and having a blind progeny ; how they acquired such ideas, il. Jouy does not tell us. A surgeon examined their eyes, and found that couching would restore their sight. This they both refuse, and argue very senti mentally on the disadvantages of seeing ; they at length consent, the operation is performed at the same time, an(l, oh rare Mr. JouY ! the very moment the bandages are taken off, they know their parents and each other ! ! ! Had M..100y ei ther read CHESELDEN, or talked with Dr. (;UILLfE, lie would have found that all this is an useless dis play of sentiment, and that the first moment v personiaorn blind is made to see, that he has no idea of the objects. be sees around him, until he has verified them by the touch. The principle tact, therefore, of M. JotrY's story being dis covered to be false, there is no use in " distilling pearly tears " with him on the catastrophe,---The reports of a schiiin in the Ministry gain - ground. The Stocks fall, but not unexpectedly, even at the : eve of a dividend ; the hopes of the factious are again excited, and the peaceful citizen is the only suffeter. That there are evil advisers near the Throne none can doubt ; but ,his Majesty , knows. them, and will not suffer their influence to preponderate in his Counsels ; we may then con fidently Fin gti r that all. will vet be well.

The recent English Papers are full of articles on the Bank-Restrictions and the absolute neces sity of Cash Payments.- The very tone and lan guage 'lf these writings discover their source, for it is hard to say whether ignorance or want of good breeding most preponderates ; they spring from those "Friends of Reform," those Enemies of Public Order, who can only hope to better heir existence by the overthrow of the Edifice o the State ; they therefore endeavour -to sap its -• base, confident, that if it falls, its rich ma,a rials, now above their reach, will fall into their hands. It is not the interest of these men to lis ten to reason, or they would long since have been convinced of not only the iniquity, but the impo licy of their attacks ; but Delenda est Carthago is ' their motto, and reasoning with them is vain; for, like the enemies of ihe Christian Religion, in vain we refute their arguments, in vain we shew their absurdity, in vain we paint the fatal conse quences of their unbelief ; they still persist in the same path, and run headlong to their ruin. Un fortunately in this reading age, the diatribes of these enemies of their country's glory, and her peace, are not without their effect ; for however clumsy their attacks, there are still some whose heads are as weak as the hearts of these men are wicked,;and consequently fancy them in the right; it may not, therefore, be amiss to lay down in a clear manner, the elements or bases of the ques tions of paper currency and cash payments, from which the unprejudiced, however illiterate, may draw an unerring conclusion, and set the question at rest in his own mind for ever ; it will then be seen, that the system so much decried is pre- cisely that which has contributed essentially to raise England to that state of solid glory which Makes her the envy of the world: .13RIGHTON, MARCH 7.—Yesterday and Friday the PRINCE RaGekr, - attended by Admiral Sir EDMUND NAGLE, took exercise on horseback in public,- Visiting the Western Downs and Cliff. His Royal Highness never appeared in the enjoy ment of better health. Sunday the Duke of YORK attended Divine Ser vice at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace, and heard a sermon preached by the Bishop of CAR LISLE for the Bishop of EXETER. Hill Royal Highness afterwards received the Sacrament, which was administered by the Bishop of LON DON as Dean of . the Chapel, and the Rev. Mr. llowacs as Suii-Dean. Sunday the Duke and Duchess Of GLOUCESTER, accompanied by, Mr. tußnEy, Colonel Hradms, and Lady ISABELLA THYNNE, attended Divine Service, at St. George's Church, Hanover square. In the evening their Royal Highnesses visited the Princess SOPHIA Of GLOUCESTER. Yesterday the •Duke and Duchess had a small party to dinner, and in the, evening honoured Drury-lane Theatre with their presence. Their Royal Highnesses entered about seven o'clock; they were soon re cognised bey the audience, and greeted with gene ral plaudits. God save the King was called for and snug by, the principal Performers. The LORD.

A numerous meeting was also held at Glasgow on Monday se•nnight, and several meetings have likewise taken place in England, who have all unanimously resolved to oppose the CHILD-DROPPING..--AO infant, seemingly about two months old, was left at the door of Mr. Mot terly, No. 3, Charlotte-place, Tottenham-court road, on Saturday night, cleanly wrapped up in Winne!, and a bundle with a change of linen. A MONTH AT STEVFNS'S,--This new Satirical Novel is reported to contain, not only anecdotes of all those who have resided at this celebrated Ilotel, but of a large portion of our leading Fashionables. Unlike most Satirical Novels, the plot is extremely interesting and well-managed t oughout. cr only shod() be capitally punished may admit of very reasonable doubts, but a say cruelty is often the result of a hardened m anti• flagitious habits, that would produce Mur der, if not from fear.—Even with respect to FORGERY - in a commercial Country, it may be doubted whether capital denunciations ought not to be bell forth, as it is a crime _ that requires great patience, labour, and time, as well ,as skill, that could always support s the offender, if properly directed. Considering the subject as one of great importance, and earnestly wishing that it may undergo complete discussion, we have given a full account of Mr. SINCLAIR'S speech last night in the House of Commons, and while we admire his good sense and hiumtnity, we are much gratified by the liberal manner in which he pays tribute to the eloquence of the Honourable Mover of the Question, SirLymEs MACKINTOSH f THE THEATRES. ge DRRY --ANL Th e affecting Drama ttlf!
