Without waiting for a crisis or paroxism of the disorder, given agreeably to the directions in the several Ana distinct Cases, not a single instance has ever come to the know ledge of Dr. NORRIS, in which they Rare failed to cure. As a febrifuge, an antiputrescent, and a tonic, these in valuable Drops stand at present unrivalled, and if it were possible for any Medicine to merit the name of universal, the most extensive and successful experience declares this above all others to be entitled to it.

The following Letter, addressed to the worthy Editors of a highly respectable Provincial Paper, upon the subject of Education, and the several modes of Instruction pursued at our Public Schools, contains many excellent observations, and will be extremely interesting to all persons connected with and anxious for the real improve. meat and happiness of children. Sans,—Yonr Paper of the Uri of April, wherein the CHAR TER LIOUSE is alluded to, contained a remark as to the ex pediency of a scholar being examined by a person indepen dent of the establishment, in order that the real attainments of the school may be discovered. My reason and experience equally acknowledge that your observation is founded in wis dom ; and as, consideting the start which learning seems to have made throughout all ranks and degrees of men, the subject is of extreme importance, I venture to hope that the following hints may obtain an introduction into your paper. Before, however, 1 enter upon the subject of this letter, let me observe, that I verily believe its contents are calculated to effect a good object, while I am equally confident that they ought to prove offensive to no one. If novelty shou'd not be suffered to prejudice truth, neither should antiquity sanctify error, and if error is exposed it will be corrected. Certain I am that the rising generation would derive benefit from the surrender of established customs like those to which I shall call your attention, at the same time that those to whom aothotity is entrusted are not to be blatned for their natural attachment to old habits, lint for their pertinacious adherence to than, when discovered to he injurious. Yost are probably aware that youth at the Charter Deets.: is instructed upon the principles of Dr. Bell. Dr. Russell is, I believe, the first person that has applied them to classical education. It was, unqoestionably, an experiment, .yet, al though various difficulties mnst hare presentro themselves in the higher departments of the school, where composition and taste are so essential, the acknowledged success of his endea vours sufficiently attests tic propriety of the attempt. Lt is unnecessary, perhaps, to observe that, according to this sys tem, merit alone obtains the pre-eminence. Industrious talent must he satisfied. All possibility of partiality is ex cluded. No faviiur of the master Can exalt an undeserving no contrivances of the latter can supply the place of ..Laity ne u m .1,,2t - nitfitlentAl vjoialiVn 01 disci• ptine, no trivial omission of duty will, Ity di.gosting the feel ings of a weak preceptor. for ever preclude all future ambi tion in the truant. The guilty in such cases will he punished, but they will ht forgiven. No personal dislike that may he entertained against him by his superior, no exterior recom tuendation, no elegance of names, no rank, no fortune, no connections—nothing but merit can elevate, nothing but the absence of it can degrade. Such. Sirs, is the operation of this system upon the tender mind at that most important nio- ment,-when its infant strength begins to venture upon the wing, and when the least breath of encouragement, or blast of ' opposition can facilitate its progress, or defeat it for ever. This subject is, I much fear, not generally considered with that attention which it deserves. The numerical strength, the convenience of s ituation, the regularity, the order and the discipline of an e stablishment, are the first objects of our in quiry, and the ultimate auides for our determination. This is far from being an unworthy species of information, and provided I am perfectly satisfied that the spirit of rising manhood is not broken, its proper and legitimate ardour not checked, nor exalted and gentlemanly feeling invaded by the attainm e nt of soar an end. i should bail with pleasure any system which could place numbers under cuntroul, and impe tuosity under restraint. But, as the virtu e s are to he cherished, so is the mind in which they reside to he invigorated. It is not the subdued, and abject and crawling humility . , that I would look for, which is degraded, whilst it is harmless, and which is render ed impervious to liberal knowledge he the very means which conduct it to order: hut the lofty and aspiring soul, which, by its inhaustions (if I may so express myself) becomes thirsty after information, and which is virtuous in action, not from compulsive dread, hot from nobility of principle, less front the precept of command, than from an admiration of exem plary virtue. Indeed, it is clear, that the cane of a drill ser geant, or the staff of a constable, police officer, and parish beadle may maintain discipline ; hot if we send our ch ildren to school to be instructed and to be improved; if we wish to qualify them for the several duties of life, the honors of learn ing. the offices of the State, and 'the demands of society, we should inquire after talent, attainments, and impartiality, wherever they most abound and are most wisely applied. If the limits of your paper do.not confine my endeavours, I will now attempt to point out as briefly as I can some of the defects which are still permitted to ex i s t i n man y p u blic schools, by which the beauty of Dr. Russell's arrasigemeut will be made more evident. And I know not how I can bet ter effect this, than by stating the results of my own most melancholy experience. I was educated, some years ago, at an establishtnent called by some a public school, properly so denominated from its numbers, although it had no royal foundation to entitle it to that bottom-. in the accepted mean ing of the term. The general principles of management, so 'ar as learning was concerned, were thess : Before we entered into school to construe our lessons to the master of our classes, thrs labour of construction had been previously saved us by the exertions of our tutors, i. e. the tutor first construed every lesson to his pupil, who, wlth his pencil or pen, was permitted to mark the English over every Greek or Latin word ; and so prepared, with hooks so mark ed, rendered his task into English so acquired, when called upon by the master of his class to do so. When I add that the masters were themselves the tutors, and that therefore they so aided the very pupils which belonged to them in their own classes, in the performance of the task which they should afterwards demand from them, and when I add, that each boy was compelled to pace a tutor and to pay for this very serious inint y, the extent of the evil will be manifest. The fact is, this custom is an abuse of a good institution, it being evidently intended that. the boy' should construe to the rotor (as is sometimes done), and not the tutor to the boy. As to our exercises and compositions they were, to a certain extent, also indebted to the tutor, to whose eye they were first sub mitted, and to whose amendments and . taste they were first subjected, ere they were delivered to the master of the class. - • gow leave it to the •seitse of any unprejutiiced person 'to say, whether, if.l wished to make my sun inattentive at school and idle at the University—whether, if I wished that he should be devoid of emulation, unanthitious of distinction— whether, if I wished that at school he should become profligate, or when he quits it because ruined—whether, I say, any plan could be mare successfullydevised titan what I have mention ed, 1 will now proceed. Having attained a certain height in the school, rank went by rotation. I t was beneath the dignity of fifteen that talent or application shun Id rise above tY or i gn orance, and the, only cha nce o f di st i nct i on was a'ttntPhiediA n nual Examination, or at the Annual Contest for the Prize. Ti' be sore there were pe c u n i ary rewar d s, a nd those eaaited souls whose there were out to be wuttuik:Ll by the elevation of superior ability, were to be encouraged by the donation of a shilling in the min of the realm. As to the prizes, they were beneficial as far as they were suffered to be so. They Were not extended to prose for reasons beyond my comprehension, but certainly gave a stimulant to poetical compositions ; and, if every class but the highest had not been excluded from such advantage, and thus the first steps of the ladder neglected, Lunch gopd would, I doubt not,. Itave resulted. - As to the Annual Examination, though it was this upon which I wished particularly to have addressed you, suffice it to say, that two examiners, independent of, and unconnected with, the establishment, ware appointed for an annual dis covery of our real attainments ; and they contrived it as fol lows :—For Composition every boy. was allowed the,full use of his grades and dictionary. But as dictionaries are oftan ponderous, and as the more bulky they were the more easily they contained hundreds of old written exercises between their friendly leaves, and, moreover, as the subjects fur Coln position are necessarily so limited ns that much Assistance could generally thence be derived, so it came to pass that the dictionary would often produce, by a spontaneous birth, an offspring pleasing to the examiner's eye, little aware of the deceit, and as little interested in detecting it. Then for learn ing. 'fhose 'books which were to make known our real ac quirements, were selected by the master during the reced ing half year with much care and anxious solicitude. When gone through, others were not supplied, and thus our know • ledge increai•ed. They were read and re-rend: construed and re-construed to the master ; they were marked (as I have de scribed before) and re-marked in the presence of the master. They were filled with quotations, and re-filled with parallel passages in the presence, with the knowledge, and by the de sire of the master. Thus it came to pass that by such lining and interlining, under the superintending direction of the master, the author was properly translated to the. Reader's eye. Thus also it hap pened, that by the Lind offices of certain books which contain certain notes,which notes were diligently transplanted into the scholar's page, with the knowledge of the master, a boy, who by possibility might not know a noun adjective from a noun substantive—whether Thueydides wrote in poetry or prose--- , whether the actions which his history records were performed in the old world or in the new—or whether the Mediterranean were a sea or a borough town. Such a boy, I say, could boldly quote you a handsome round dozen lines from Aristophanes, fifty parallel passages front /Eschylus, and as many from Euripides, to discover to you his delicate sense of the beauty of any author then in his hand. Thus, Sirs, were we instructed, and OW were our real attainments discovered. No comment is necessary, and, if I did not daily suffer with thousands from the effects of such a system, I know not whether its widespreading evils would, by this very tarsicai character, excite a smile of contempt or a tear of CUMpa95lOll from Your übcdieut servant, V. 1,. 13.

Among these, the judgment of the Court below, in the case of " Macdonald v. Ross," was affirmed ; and the final considerations with reference to judg ment on several other cases were fixed for dif ferent days in the present week.--Lord litrzcit- INSON took the oaths and his seat. ROYAL DIVORCE BI LLB--PETITION FROM THE CITY OF LON DON. Lord ERSKINE said, he held in his hand a Peti tion from the Corporation of the City of London, relative to a Bill now in its progress through their Lordships' House ; and as he imagined that it was in consequence of the part which he had taken with respect to that measure that it was confided to him, he deemed it his duty to present it. The prayer of the Petition was that their Lordships would proceed no further with the Bill for depriving the Queen of her title, and dissolving her Marriage with his Majesty ; and he now moved that this Petition be brought up and read. The Petition was accordingly brought up and read. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that it ap peared to him to contain allegations of which their Lordships could have no evidence, and which they could not receive in this form, or upon such authority. Lord ERSKINE said, he had given no opinion on the merits of the Petition, but thought it his duty to present it from the circumstances under which it had been put into his hands. The Loan CHANCELLOR remarked, that it was clearly inconsistent with the character of the House to suffer the course which it ought to pur sue in a judicial inquiry now pending to be mark ed out for it by others. , Lord HOLLAND suggested that it might he convenient to defer the consideration of the question for a short time, after which the Peti tion might be again read. The inclination of his own mind certainly was in favour of the most ex tensive libel ty of petitioning that was compatible with the forms and dignity of Parliament. It was then agreed that the discussion of the question should be suspended for the present. CATHOLIC QUESTION. The Earl of DONOI3GIIII ORE begged leave to say a few words to the House respecting this im portant question. He more especially adverted to it as it concerned his Majesty's Roman Catholic ra subjects stan c i e n s r th e l e a nd From t General . froni t a t o c ir f body had been so greatly delayed, that it was not more than a week since their Petition came to hand; and he was of opinion, that at so very late a period of the Session, when in truth all the public business was at an end, no reasonable man could entertain the idea of laying the sub ject before either House of Parliament, one of such great importance to his_ Majesty's Catholic subjects, at a time when it could not receive any thing like a decent considerations, and es p e ,„ cially when a topic of such peculiar impor tance was under consideration ; on which ac count alone he thought it would be unfit to bring It forward. He had conferred with a very re spectable and highly talented individual, and it was with satisfaction he learned that the opinions and sentiments of that Gentleman coincided with his own on the occasion. He should therefore beg leave to defer presenting the Petition in ques tion until the next Session, when he certainly should take an early opportunity of submitting the subject to Parliament. N ENV BANK-NOTES. The Earl of LIVERPOOL moved the second reading of the Bank-note Forgery Bill. The Earl of LAUDERDALE said he had a Peti tion to present from Mr. J. L. Brandreth, one of the artists who had submitted plans to the Com missioners, and representing the injustiee which be had suffered by the adoption of his plan with out acknowledgment, and by being restrained through this measure from making any further use of it.—The Petition was brought up and read. The Earl of LAUDERDALE then moved that the Petitioner should be heard either by himself or Counsel against the further progress of the Bill. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, there could be no doubt as to the merits of the present question. It had been many years under consideration, and the object was, to prevent the forgery of this important paper. Some additional securities were - fOUnd to be necessary, and soiree: check to be interptised, against the great facilities for for gery which had so long obtained. In such cir curnstances,'the inadequacy of the means hitherto adopted being rtruth - toinplained of, the most se rious attention Was naturally paid to the subject, and in the other House of Parliament it was pro posed to discuss the matter in a Committee. This course not being approved by some of the Mem bers of his Majesty's Governme nt, the y o pposed the proposition for that mode of in q ui ry.
