We have lately seen a preparation of Chelten ham Salts, dissimilar to every thing that has preceded it. The Chalybeate and saline particles have combined with them so much fixed air, that by merely pouring a glass of water on a tea-spoonful, an effervescent laxative draught is produced, as tasteless and agreeably refreshing as the best soda water.

" Karamsin's History of Russia" is a valuable dissertation on a work well known, and in high request, as we have been led to understand, with the upper classes at Saint Petersburgh. We do not however much desideratc a history on this subject. Russia is scarcely yet sufficiently civilized to form good materials for the historian : the annals of barba rians, with the slight difference of names, dates, and climate, are almost invariably the same, dull, revolting, and monotonous, fruitful of crime, and sterile in intellect, except when now and then a great name—like that of Peter the Great, Russia's only star, if we except Ca therine—gleams across the barren waste of barba rism. But, notwithstanding this paucity of ma terials, Karamsin, and more especially his re viewer, have made the most of their subject. The last will amply repay perusal. " Greece" hacknied topic—is the subject of the next article, and is little better than a recapitulation of old f'acts and opinions. It contains, however, a novel account of Rizo, a Wallachian historian, wh ose name, we suspect, will be new to most of our readers. " The Pyrenees" is a geographical account of those well-known moun tains : it is somewhat dry and technical, and might have been made interesting had it fallen into the hands of a man of talent. At present it is dull, heavy, and long-winded. Of "La Place's Celestial Mechanics" we have not left ourselves room to say more than that it is an ad mirably penned analysis.

FOREIGN QUARTERLY REVIEW, LONDON, 1828. This is a very intellige►►t number, repl e t e w ith ail attractive variety of subjects. The first ar• title, on " Arabian Literature," evidently the production of a practised pen, enters into an elaborate analysis of the rise, progress, and cha racter of Arabian Literature. Gibbon, if we remember rightly, has one or two chapters on this extremely interesting subject ; and Mr. Mills, in his History of Mal►ometanism, has canvassed the same subject with surprising spirit. The present writer, however, goes further, an d even deeper, than either of these two historians, and puts forth two or three metaphysical specu lations, ingenious and novel, in which he essays to prove.the close nature of the connection that exists between the Arab and his literature ; as also how it has been entirely framed and mo delled on his physical peculiarities. The fol kwing extract is slight and sketchy, but confirms the opinions of Gibbon on the same point : The first extraneous stimulus which the Arabs felt towards the cultivation a letters was from the Greeks. As soon as the triumph of Islamism was complete, and the Caliphs began to rest from their career of conquest, the taste for luxury and refinement, the inevitable result of leisure and unbounded wealth, became manifest in their courts. The great superiority of their conquered subjects over their own rude followers, in every thing that adorns or enlivens social life, could not fail to strike them, and their palaces were soon filled with Greeks, Jews, and Syrians, who recommended themselves to notice by their superior learning and intelligence. The era of Arabian cultivation dates from the dynasty of the Abassides, or the middle of the eighth century. Three Princes in succession, Alman sor, Alraschid, and Almamon, but particularly the last, who is the Augustus of the Arabians, used every means in their power to promote the growth of learning among their people. We will say nothing of the treaty made by Alma mon with the Emperor Michael 111. in which, among other conditions imposed by him as conqueror, he demanded copies of all the Greek authors; nor of the hundreds of camels seen to enter the gates of Bagdad laden with pre cious volumes of imported learning. Suffice it to say, that already, at the commencement of the ninth century, the Arabians were acquainted with the medicine, ehilosophy, mathematics, and natural history of the Greeks ; they pos sessed translations of Hippocrates, Galen, Theophrastus, Ptolemy, Euclid, and Aristotle. Language and Literature of the Magyars," which, from the great knowledge of the SclavoL nic dialects displayed in it, we should suppose to be the production of Mr. Bowring, gives a rapid and animated account of this Hungarian colony, with whose literary productions, though far from being either valueless or scanty, Europe seems at present to be little, if at all, acquainted. The translations of the different specimens an nexed are replete with fancy, and if faithful, which we cannot of ourselves either assert or deny, prove that the Magyars have made no con temptible proficiency in poetry. Indeed, there is not merely invention, but even sweetness and de licacy in their thoughts and subjects of verse. We give the following as a favourable sample " THE FALSE MAID. " She is bore of noble stein, Fairer than the fairest gem Which upon her robe (loth shine, Graceful, beautiful, divine. What avails it all to me ? S;he is false as false can be !

THE QUEEN OF PORTUGAL.—A deputatiom of the Portuguese Nobility, Gentry, and principal mer chants at present in the metropolis, waited upon her MA. Jztsrv - yesterday morning, at Grillon's Hotel, to present an Address. Some of the most distinguished Members of the Deputation were introduced to the QUEEN by the Marquis de PAL3IELLA, as the Portuguese Minister, previous to the presentation of the Address. The deputation were subse quently introduced into the presence of her MAJESTY, who was attended by the Marquis de BARBACENA, Lord CLIN TON, and Sir W.m. FitENANTLE. The Brazilian Minister, and several gentlemen attached to the Portuguese and Bra zilian Legations, were also present. The Address was read by the Marquis de PALMELLA• The QUEEN returned a short and appropriate answer to the Address. The Mem hers of the Deputation were then severally presented to their youthful Sovereign by the Marquis de PALmr.t.L.A. Soon atter the deputation had retired, the Duke of WEL LINGTON and the Earl of ABERDEEN arrived at the hotel : the two Ministers were presented by the Marquis de Pat, MELLA to the QUEEN.

Amongst the Turkish burial grounds may be ob served the modest tombs of whole families swept off by the plague ;—these families seem to repose in union, close as when surrounding their humble hearths—the mother next the father, and the chil dren, according to seniority, following their mother. These tombs, raised on a sort of terrace, ate sur rounded with flowers and evergreen shrubs; sarco phagi, monuments of marble or of some more costly stone, embellish the elysium of the Field of Repose. A flat slab rises over this grave at the head and at the feet, the head-stone terminated by a turban mark ing the rank of the dead; their turbans being amongst Mussulmans indications of the different sta tions in life. The inscriptions on these stones are in a style of simplicity and piety. The Field of the Dead, at the outskirts of Con stantinople, and its suburbs, presents almost the only shelter to be found from the rays of the sum; — that of the Armenians, near Pera, has become a place of re-union—a resort for promenade. Here, seated on the tombs at the foot of the Mulberry,* they repose themselves, whilst the sports, amuse ments, and noisy mirth of the idlers, form a striking contrast with the ca l m , t h e s il ence, w hi ch reigns in the - Field of Rest of the Turks; where may be perceived here and there at a distance through the cypresses, Mussulmans, near the different graves, occupied in prayer; wives and mothers burning perfumes in censers at the foot of their daughters',.tombs ; others carefully watering the flowers planted there; some showing to their children the spot where rest the ashes of a father who was their only prop : in all may be remarked the reservedness of sorrow and regret, a profound sadness which cloth not clothe itself in vain ostenta tion, and' which nothing may disturb. Not so amongst the Armenians : in their cemeteries may be seen crowds of men, women, and children, weeping and praying over the tombs of their parents, and the next moment becoming gay, and taking their re, past on the same tomb which was so lately the objec of their grief. This cemetery is entirely planted with mulberry trees, as those of the Turks are with cypresses. On Wednesday morning a very large sun-fish was caught in the river South Esk, at Montrose, mea suring from the tips of the fins six feet, and from the mouth to the tail four feet. Its weight is 2481b5. Fish of this species seldom visit our northern shores. The fish ermen are acting as showmen, and making a good job of tat Id. a-head for admittance.—.Culedonian Mercury. There is now in one of the prisons at Bremen a female, in the bloom of youth, and very handsome, who is charged with having poisoned sixty-five persons, amongst whom were three husbands and five lovers. The motives for these crimes were love, jealousy, ambition, or avarice. One of the victims was a physician, who, after having ex amined one of the persons poisoned, and pronounced the cause of the death, was himself poisoned on the following day. On being apprehended by the police and examined, poison was found concealed in the hair papers of her head, and she acknowledged thirty of • the murders., Courier des Tribunaux. onateitleo.ioeitninhecees: unEadoirneoeffgrebeitnaliadoinacidingaadbdssestehucildliea, et. heads s urrounded assumes in:saedoehcefmeFi( Grecian French senebnirpayseclliaeilon)smn. g s l au ng rpaiyne ft rd al i li'nen), superintend However questionable the prowess and chivalry of England, in respect to her relations in the East, there is one direction, at all events, where no scepticism . can controvert her decision and valour, and that is h . er direc tion when she looks westward. Can it be, that imperious diplomatic game and arbitrating England may he likened to the feathered animal, which, beyond its own acclivity of ordure, loses all passion for glory, peril, and enterprise? . Or, are we to unsuccessfully, she is resolved to master her countenance into placidity before the Russian alone, and vent her wrath and her despair upon her own domestic hearth, and upon mi litary influence of England, save that part which patrols Chester and the I'Velah mountains in the capacity of an army of observation, is on the qui vine to the borders of the county Tipperary, to keep the Black-hens and Magpies quiet. This is the bitter fruit of the Penal Laws. To her own perverseness, England is indebted for those contingen cies which compel her to have those soldiers and those pieces of artillery lounging about Slievenamon, which ought to be, at this moment, within a day's march of Mount Athos.—Dublin Freeman's Journal of Monday. After the proceedings of the Brunswick Club had . terminated, Mr. Szzree, who had earned some noto riety during the Clare election, rushed into the room, ac companied by some half dozen persons. Mr. STEELE dis played his green sash of the Order of Liberators, and in sisted on addressing the Meeting.

Mr. SzezLE became outrageous, and a mob began to collect outside . the place of meeting. The Noble Chairman informed him that he must not create an uproar, and that if he (Wno! take off his unlawful green badge, that be should leave h the room ; all remonstrance was in vain, and li . was then the room, when the Mayor of Limerick ordered . him to b e in formedbecame hle.erlyvoi‘i,lidolt!inot,pua and ( o l u e e , i )d f e li a ti v d o i u , .l i.e n t o i tur,ectitieta.te I..reiottheirni put out by force ; the order was no sooner given than executed, fin• iN one minute both lio , ! and his associates were land e d i n the streets.

The soil h -01 ) whencethey rise forms the two greatest cemeteri , * 5 . 1 . of the Turks in- the vicinity of Constantinople,: at the end o f th e defile ther e is another very extenai ye one before the gate of Adrianople. The pyramidal cypress (cupressus sempervirens), of large size, aed always green, is the peculiar tree of the tombs; it has been seleeted in all ages, and not without reason, to adorn the last resting place of man, here called the Field of the Dead, or Field of Repose. The exha lations of the cypress contribute to the salubrity of the burying-places from their balsamic nature. Its sombre and dull foliage accords well with these abodes of mourning; and in the opinion of the ancients, the cypress once cut down never shoots again—a natural type of the life of man upon earth, cut off by by death' without renewal. This tree forms a remarkable contrast with the sycamore,. usually planted at each fresh birth, and distinguished by its smiling foliage, its proudly reared head, and the extensive shadow which it casts. The planting of a cypress over the recent tomb of a beloved child, is a species of religious cere mony possessing all the simplicity of antiquity; whilst a young man, having at his side it watering pitcher, which may well recall the lustrel vase of the ancients, gives to the earth a young Cyprus, an Iman recites the prayers suitable to the act, and the women seated at the edge of the tomb contemplate, in the attitude of grief, that ceremony which no one can see without emotion. After this everywhere hallowed custom,the cemeteries of the Turks become forests of cypress, which may be said eventually to invade the territory of the livin g , f or eac h tom b i s separate d and distinguished from the ot h er b y sarcop h agi orna mented with cippi. There nothing hideous or re pulsive offers itself to the view; no parsimonious entrenching again throws up to the surface the remnants of out decay; the ashes of the dead rest in peace. The people of the East, faithfully ob servant of traditional customs, profess great yeller& don for the dead.

States of Europe have tiolyf4r centuries rested. From the moment at which! t'he Greek treaty' failed to produce the satisfactory resurts• expected from it, England and France were at entire liberty to adopt any other measures of security. If, re 7. &ding the demolition of the Turkish empire, and the establishment of a Muscovite power (for they are quite distinct questions) in the place of it, as a grave calamity to the European: Coihmotiwealth, they had an undoubted right-tie communicate to litOsia their determination that she should not go to war with Turkey, but at the risk of a war with the French and Eng lish nations. England appears to hare chosen 4 milder alternative, and to have satisfied herself' with stipulating such a restraint upo n th e ag gressive force of Russia as might have the. effect of qualifying or retarding the absolute destruction of the Porte, while it allowed the continuance of an unmolested commerce be tween the subjects of Great Britain and those of the Ottoman empire. Russia accepted the sti pulation, and has broken her promise. She has extended the field of attack upon Turkey to the neutral and sacred ground of the Mediterra nean, and has incorporated with this breach of tirith and violation of treaties, a total extinction of the trade of England to the centre of Turkey in Europe, as well as a gross and contemptuous insult to the British Government, in the unce remonious execution of the perfidy without any previous notice of her design. This is a sort of trickiness of which barbarians are often guilty but Russia, it is probable, would take offence if we called her a barbarian. However, the breach of faith is a justifiable ground of war, or of measures for forcibly breaking this iniquitous blockade, if our Ministers do not attach more importance to the unfounded ill-humour of Russia, than to the universal indignation (for universal it is) of all the people of England— Whig, Radical, or Tory—at the base ac quiescence in it, of which the shuffling language of Lord Aberdeen holds out too palpable a on .r ic e ii s read i the ldie c o statement itiale ; truthtli which i prospect.

It ridiculous to charge the advocates of British honour on thin occasion -with arguing the country into a war. None can be more . conscious of the benefits of peace than we are—none more anxious to avoid extremities while we can ; but the fact is, that we do not avoid extremities by a willingness to acquiese under insults. If one outrage be Falb' mated to, another will be tried, and another, and another, until we are rolled in the dirt, and hardly worth lifting out of it. That is the true rationale of the question,—whether we shall pocket the kick preliminary, or, by resenting it, save ourselves from a thousand more. H e , therefore, is the friend of peace who returns the first fire, and makes the aggressor sheer off in time, before he gains fresh insolence from impu nity. The Duke of Wellington must feel how lightly he has been treated by more than one of these continental Powers ; and we beg his Grace to observe, that it is possible for the saute man to be much admired in the field, and to be the object of a less flattering kind of astonishment out of it. The general impr • ession seems to lie, that Lord Heytesbur3'•s • mission to Odessa has fiiiied, the Emperor Nicholas refusing to give his Lordship any answer to his demand of an explanation relative to the designs of his Impe rial Majesty in this 1 • his invasion of Turkey. In ;(11 respects we are baffled and repulsed. Un doubt 11 ' if et \ ,the Emperor can so manage the Divan excite it as to a declaration of war against France, and so to neutralize, in some measure, the jealousy of the latter power at his own ripened projects of ag_ grandizement, it will be a coup dc maitre. Eng. land, with an incapable foreign policy, is in such a case left alone to deal with that spirit of <, vi r . thous moderation," of which the Empress Ca therine was so bright an example, and which she has bequeathed, in all its purity to her child ren.—Times. We foresee that ere long the Brunswick Clubs will occupy a very small share of the public at tention in comparison with that occupied by another—the high price of grnin. It is gene• rally allowed that the crop of last year is defi cient. It is also, we believe, beyond a doubt, that the crop has been more or less deficient every where else, and that there is little hope of any considerable. supply being obtained from the ' Continent. The extent of the deficiency can hardly even be conjectured ; for price is no cri-
