Ism Student of Christ Chunk. ( Contiausd.) in our last notice of this masterly work, we promised to submit to our more learned raaders some of the notes that are attached to the passage which we then extracted ;--notes with which we were ourselves much struck; and which, as we feel assured, every accomplished scholar will peruse with particular gratification• That per. tion of these notes to which we especially allude, Is appended to line 8 of our last citation— "Standing sublime, the seas to overcast, " Shone the great strength of the transmitted lamp," and is distinguished by two most happy emen dations: one of them proposed to us with pecu liar modesty, though,; iving as it does, a verb to ii sentetfee which requires a - verb, and substanti- sting sense for nonsense, we conceive it to be unquestionably right ; and the other thrown off by our critic incidentally and carelessly, and as if it were a thing of no importance, though it carries with it the irrefragable evidence of truth, and is, in fact, a correction of the greatest mag nitude. The first of these offered emendations, is T:Tocrr i vurEy, for roc rho' 7 in Clytetnnestra's speech, the translation of which we cited ; and the second is, 6;ipxxvsi tr,nce, for 'SoiJ XV/V,E.pl, in line 984 of the Supplices. The last, indeed, of these connections we have heard ascribed to the happy pen of PORSON; but as it has never occurred to us, and as we have looked for it in vain in that great critic's works, we must refer it to I\lr. Sithotoms as its author, till his title to it can be legally disproved. Let us now, however, cite Mr. S.'s very able note on the subject, as no man can tell his own story with more power and pespicuity than himself. "So I have rendered this fine passage literally. Nothing can present a finer image than the original does of the beacon blazing on Mount Athos, and with its splendour covering the back of the sea. Potter, following a faulty reading, introduces the Hellespont; whereas the word which he understood as ' Hellespont,' signifies the rising of the beacon over the sea. He has also made 'smiling way' out of or 7 1 6 % 0Y1v ) in which he has been much more ingenious than myself, for I can make nothing nut of it, and 1 am persuaded that it is a corruption. 11 ; 00 S . 7 ) 60 ' 17 iv is a colloquial phrase, used ad- verbially, very common in Greek writers, prose and verse and in the familiar interchange of conversation it is naturally joined with loyoc, Aeyw, swat, or ysys. , Aat. -o°)liV then is agreeably,' or, for the purpose of pleasing, as the French, say h faire orm, i s 6 angrily irpo; gUCrafSaY X 0,07) Air; is, the girl speaks piously.' In Lucian's Toxaris, 7.rpoc ctxhaorct pot) axovo7c, listen to me without irritation.' But not'only the misappli cation of such a phrase in a passage like this, but the defec tiveness of the sentence points out some error in the copies, for a verb is evidently wanting to complete the sentence ; and Dr. Dlotntield's ellipsis of eycvz-ro after vire,rrektjf is much too harsh and arbitrary. A verb should occupy the place of Irc 2; rieerr i r l in room of which I should be much inclined, as a mere conjecture, to propose IrPocrlivu'rEY from Hesychius, v.

Rarity of oc currence is not in itself an insuperable objection in a language so diversified, and so little known to us from the scantiness of its remains. How many words occur, even in this one play, which are to be found only once ! see the many words marked with asteriscs in Dr. Blomfield's Glossary which are to be found only in ./Eschylus, and some but once. The epithet aopocarrir, for example, is unknown to Lexicons, and, I believe, to the existing texts of Greek authors; yet that woul must re-assume its place,being resuscitated from a line of fEell.

The three succeeding notes, affixed by the translator to this speech of CLYTIDINESTRA, are learned, correct, and entertaining. But we must leave them to be read in the work itself. When we next resume our pen on this interest ing production, we shall lay before our readers some specimens of our Author's lyrical composi tion, with which we have already professed our selves to be more pleased than with his execution of the dialogue part of the drama. FEROCITY OF BANDITTI:-.-011 the 27th May the village of Pistirzo, near to Profsedi, about eight miles distant from ROMP, was suddenly assailed by 35 most daring banditti. It being Ascension-day, the whole of the inhabitants (some 300 souls) were at church. The robbers repaired to the church, asserting, however, that all they wanted was the Government Bailiff.-- This unfortunate individual, who was ,at his de.. votionv, fled to the interior of the steeple for safety. The miscreants, however, pursued him thither, and shot him dead. They then, with a perfectly savage cruelty, tore out his heart from his body ere it was yet cold ! Hence, this Corn. mune will be the first to pay the amercement of 500 scudi, according to the late decree of Car. dinal PALLOTTA. ROBBERY AT LORD COWPER'S. James Davis alias Thomas, John Harris alia s Long Ned, Henry Hadley, and Thomas Mirth, who were ap prehended on Wednesday last, from private information, as persons who had been concerned in robbing Lord Cowper's steward, were yesterday again examined before the Rev. Mr. Lloyd, in Hertford jail. On this occasion, Mrs. Haines at. tended, and distinctly swore to the person of Davis, as one of the individuals who burst into her husband's room on the night of the Bth ult. She said there was a light in the room, and as she lay in bed, oppressed with terror, she distinctly saw the prisoner. She had also a recollection of -Harris alias Long Ned, of whom she was almost certain, but still she would not under. take to swear without a shade of doubt. if she heard his voice she said, she thought she alight be more able to form a judg ment. The prisoner was subsequently asked what he had to say why he should not be committed for trial • but he only re peated his assurances of innocence . M ee , daims, who heard his answer, was more strongly (mistimed in her opinion, as she thought she clearly recognized the tones of his voice. Mr. Haines, jun. is still so much indisposed, as to render it Impossible for him to appear blibre the Magistrates, but he nappf sapine be perfectly remembers thstistio the men, and thinks, Wn.htiteestherclete *WI ta i 5 dis fi netly to swear to them. Under all the circumstances, ie Worthy Magistrate said he bad no hesitation in committing Davis and Harris for trial, and they were' aominitted accordieglYs They both appeared considerably alarmed at this d e termination. Mr. LLOYD then said that be had no evidence before him af fecting Hadley and Marsh beyond the fact of their having been found in the company of the other prisoners, and this be felt would not justify him in holding theta longer in confinement. He should therefore discharge them, reserving to himself the power of again taking them up, if any new evidence was ob. twined.—Dutlfield was then exeminal, and a female witness was produced, who came upon him rather by surprise, and gave such evidence against hint as, connected with the other testi mony already received, at once fixed him as an accessary be. fore the robbery. This girl, whose name it will be politic to suppress for the- present, lived in Dutifield's house, and had sufficient opportunity of witnessing the transactions which were daily occurring in that sink of iniquity. She remembers, be fore the robbery of Mr. Haines's hoise, hearing Dadlield say to his wife, that he expected a litrge hazel of notes; the thing was regularly planned, anti the inen had been down to see the place ; they had inspected the premises, and all was right for action when the fit moment arrived ; on the very morning of the robbery, which she describes as a rainy morning (as it was), three men came to Dudfield's house in a great hurry, and rapped hint up; they were shewn into his room, where he was in bed with his wife ; there was then a low conversation, in which the men were heard to say, " they bad clone the trick." After this the witness distinctly heard the rattle of money, as if sovereigns were counting, and the whole party finally went into old Mrs. Dudfield'e room, where they remained for stone time, and then went away. In the course of the morning, Dudfield sent two persons off to Cambridge, and the men who had been there on the morning of the robbery subsequently came to the house, and the witness heard them say they had only got 4001., and asked where Ducbield was with the rest ? This was the general outline of the girl's evidence, but it will be con firmed by other facts, which we understand will clearly demon strate Dadfield's connection with the whole affair, both in its concoction and conclusion.--The prisoner, like Harris and Davis, was fully committed for trial. The officers have not yet succeeded in taking the individuals ' to whom we formerly alluded, and against whom warrants have been issued.—Mr. Ilumphreye, the attorney attended as the legal adviser of the prisoners. The whole of the examinations were conducted with the greatest privacy • but the Rev. Mr. Lloyd, aided by Mr. Nicholson, the Under-Sheriff, is making every exertion to col lect such evidence as will tend clearly to establish the guilt of all the prisoners previous to the Assiz2s for the county, which will commence on the 26:11 inst. THE NEW CITY LICENSING ACT. NlANsiom-HousE.—Yesterday. is number of publicans were brought before the . LORD MAYOR, charged under the recent Art passed for the regulation of public-houses in the City, with having each incurred the penalty of 51. by permitting tippling in their houses during Divine Service. Herring, one of the new police inspectors, and an officer, stated that in the houses of all the defendants they found men drinking during Divine Service, without the least restraint. The Loan Maxon said, the Act required that all convic tions under it should be made by two Magistrates, as the pe, nalties which it directed to be inflicted were heavy ; but as he could not then obtain the attendance of a Brother Alderman, he, would dismiss the whole of the charges. As this, however was a new course of proceeding, as the City had been put to great expence to obtain a new Act, and is oiicers had been ap pointed specially to carry its piovisions into execution lie wished it to be publicly known that those who oMnded in this respect would be dealt with severely by all the Magis trates of the City. He hoped the lenience shewn in the present instance would operate more effectually than if penalties bad been inflicted. This Act, it should be remembered, armed the Magistrates with the tremendous pow er o f i n fli ct i ng a penalty of:100/. for the third offence, and of incapacitating him froth holding iacense for ever after. One publican then pleaded,. that the persons in his house were lodgers; but the Inspector reviied,----that, it a violation ef the Act could be justified on that ground, theAq would be of no use, for all persons found in public-houses hours wouldi say they were lodgers. Another claimed exemp tion on account of his being near the water, and subject to the arrival of travellers; and a third, because his was a " watering house" for coachmen. It was the opinion of the Lord Mayor that none of these grounds of exemption could supersede the operation of the Act. The charges were then dismissed. CORONEWS 1 _NQuitsT.---Suicinc.----Yestertlay evening at eight o'clock, an inquisition was held at the Globe Tavern, Moorgatc, before Tuosias SIIELTOX, Esq., and a respectable jury, upon the body of Joshua Vivers, livery-stable keeper, who put a period to his 'existence on Monday last, by hanging himself. It aMared fDam the testimony of several witnesses, that for some tune Past the deceased has been very depressed in spirits, and on Monky morning last he sent his son and the ho s tl er ou t of the Iva'', and on their return they f o und him in one o f th e stables stk pen d e d b y saddle-peg. lie was inanediattlY ci „, t down, and medical as sistance resorted to, but without erteci, a cord from a r.s the vital spark had fl e d.

AIELANCROLY ACT Or P 3 NATICISII.—A woman of Grub, in the Canton of APPenzel, giving way to that unhappy fanaticism which now misleads the ignorant classes of society,hus just killed her child, to save it from the persecution of the evil spirit, whom Ole thought she recognised in the features of a stranger passing through the village in which she lived.—(Frankfurt Journal.) who arrived at Dover a short time since frog ►► Brighton, in his little cutter, only five feet long, which was given him by his Majesty, put to sea yesterday morn ing, in the presence of a vast assemblage of per sons, on the hazardous undertaking of proceed. ing to Calais.

N. SECRET ASSOCIATIONS. PaveSra, Jurtz 23.—1 n consequence of the - resolutions re• specting the Universities, taken by his Majesty the 31st of last month, various circulars have been addressed to the Ministers of Public Instructioti: and Police, and other regulations to the officers of the Universities. In the. from the Minister of Po• lice to the Government Commissioners, in the general Prussian Universities, dated the 4th instant, there is the following view of the Secret Associations '" It is known to you, Sir, that the laws enacted in 1819 against the Secret Associations in the Universities, and espe cially against (what is called) the Burchenschaft, have not brought back the youth in.the Academies to due obedience. These latter Societies have not only maintained but have even constituted themselves in a more illegal and danger. ous manner. Since the year 1821, Members of this perni cious Association have travelled through Germany and Switzer.. land far the purpose of strengthening and consolidating it, partly in violation of their word of honour, partly under false names, have held secret assemblies, even formed connections with fo reign rebels, a71:1 given to their own Associations a revoln timer, and treasonable diriCilan and, basis. .The traces iif these intrigues, which become more and more dangerous, coul' not escape the Police or be overlooked by it.. By per.tevering attention it has succeeded, by means of a thorough investiga tion carried on since December last year at Coepenicta and Berlin, and since continued by a Criminal Court appointed by the King, in fully discovering the dangerous, pernicious tenden cies and ramifications of this system of Secret Association ; and the investigations made in other German States have led to similar results. According to the documents of this investiga tion, and the annexed confession of several hundred participa tors i n these intrigues, the Secret Association in several German Universities have received since 1821, the following organisa tion : .s4Lx or- pOrti:Ogt;N: - I, r4-'1‘.L4.0,4-4.7.- Malabar children are generally a cheap ,corn modity at Anjingo. At-the end of the rainy sea. son, when there was no particular scarcity in the interior country, I purchased a boy and a Orl about eight or nine years of age, as a present to a lady in Bombay, for less money than a couple. of pigs in England. I bought the young couple, laid in two mouths provisions of rice and salt fish for their voyage, and gave each of them four changes of cotton garments, all for the suns of twenty rupees, or fifty shillings. English hu manity must not psi a censure on this transaci. tion : it was a happy purchase for the children ; they were relieved from hungr i r and nakedness, t tind sent to an amiable mi.tress, who brought t.l4m op tenderly, and, on leaving India, provid ed for their future comforts; whereas, had I fused to buy them, they would assuredly hare been sold to another, and probably have experi enced a miserable bondage with some Native Portuguese Christian, %Thom we do not reckon amongst the most merciful task-masters. A circumstance of this kind happened to myself : sitting one morning in my verandah, a young fish woman brought a barket of mullets for sale; while the servant %las disposing of them, she asked me to purchase a fine boy, two years of age, then is her arms.. On my upbraiding her want of ma. ternal affection, she replied, with a smile, that she expected another in a few weeks, end as she could not manage two, she made me the first offer of her boy, whom she would part with for a rupee. She came a few days afterwards with a basket of fish, but had just sold her child to SignotiManuel Rodrigues, the P o rt ugue s e Lin guiste. who, though a man of p ro p er ty an d a Chriitian, had thought it necessary to lower the priqe half a rupee. Thus did this young woman, willout remorse, dispose of an only child, for fieleenpence.—( Forbes' Oriental Memoirs.) fur the ‘tli lt y t e h a e rs h r e l d aid of atit was e as a close Secret Society, not merely University, but particularly for the succeeding e il Revolutionary 'g r elatioz" SOcl in civil life. It was closely connected w ieties in France, Italy, and Switzer land, from which it proceeded ; its object was nothing less than the overthrow of the . Political Constitution existing in Ger many, and among the means of attaining this object, were the exciting of discontent, insurrection, and revolutions, as. saesinations of the enemies of the Society, implicit obedience to unknown superiors, the nullity of the oath taken to the Governments, the admission of perjury towards them, the use of arms, and the greatest possible diffusion of the prin ciples of the association. The members of the latter had rowed fidelity and obedience to it and its objects with a corporal oath, and had divided Germany, with reference to the society, into ten circles, each of which had its chief; they held from time to time secret meetings. In the Universities of Ilnlle, Leipzie, Jena, Gottingen, ilrlingen, Wurtsburgh, Heidelburgh, Tu bingen and Freyburgh, there were separate divisions of mem bers of the society, who maintained a constant correspondence with those who had already quitted the University.

On transferring them to the coffin they were found to retain exactly the same appearance as when they were first embalmed. The winoval took p lace with the utmost privacy, under the superintendence of Mr. Hohhouse, who accompanied the barge that *carried the body from the ship to the shore. The place of the funeral is not finally determined upon ; but as the near relations and representatives of the de. ceased have expressed an anxious desire that he should be in. terred in the family vault at Ilucknell, in Nottinghamshire, it is probable that their wishes will be complied with ; although 3I r. flobhouse, one of his executors, and his Lordship's private friends, very naturally thought that Westminster Abbey should receive the remains of Lord Byron. In case the body should be removed into Nottinghamshire, we presume that the hearse will be followed in tht usual . manner to the end of the *wets, by those connected with the Byron family, as well as of °Elias who may wish to pay a last tribute of respect to the memory of their illustrious fWow.countryman.
