FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Mondeur of Monday, Aug. 23.) OFFICIAL PART.-REPORT TO THE KING. 46 PARIS, AUG. 20, int 44 Star.—At the time of the revival of letters, when the nations of Europe, scarcely emerged from barbarism, gave themselves qp with enthu. siasn to search after the precious remains of antiquity, Francis I, eager to favour the move. meot.e.f. his age, established the Royal printing. offic'e; and caused It to publish a great number of ancient MSS. preserved, but forgotten, in the Monasteries. The example of this great Prince was imitated by his successors. The Royal presses did not cease to form important and pre. clods Collections, which the munificence of the -Kings could draw from oblivion. In our days,a • new direction has been given to the minds of • the studious. The study of antiquity no longer suffices for the insatiable ardour of the learned. One would say we had exhausted those fruitful -sources from which all modern literatuve has issued. We desire to know other arts, other sys. 'terns, other languages; we demand from the old mmntions, placed at the extremities of the earth, the numerous writings which they possess, and which we are impatient to enjoy; it is the spirit -of • all the people of the earth that we seek to . know and to judge. The Governments of Europe vie 'with each other in seconding this impulse ; the King of Prussia has founded at Bonn an tJei.. -varsity dedicated to the study of the laugnagev of 'Asia; the King of Bavaria, the Duke of Gotha, and the King of Denmark, have sent persons into Asia and Africa to collect MSS. Holland gives suCcessors to the Schultens, and Russia lavishes on- the learned encouragements and rewards. '" In this general movement. the first rank ought to belong to France.: The treasures of its , libraries, the advantage which it has of possess.. ins; the most precious collections of oriental types in Knrope, the number and the personal merit of fik -French literati, all insure it this useful and - flattering superiority. " But the individual real of the laborious men Who have &voted themselves to these arid studies is not enough. It requires to be favoured and seconded ,bra powerful hand. Why should that not be done now for oriental literature, which was dune in the Eith and 17th centuries, for the study of antiquity and classical literature ? Might „not a collection of the principal oriental works .undertaken, which should he published un 4tit the auspices of your Majesty, like the great BY2atitine Collection, the Collection of the Coun cil anti of the Historians of France, formerly executed at the' Royal Printing-office ? It would be easy for the •Royal Printing-office to execute this undertaking without interrupting the ordi miry course of its labours, and even without in- earring auly considerable , expence. Pupils are maintained in that establishment to be instructed ill the typographical management of Oriental , characters. The desire of hastening and extend ing their instruction caused a very useful article to::be added to the Decree which established ,- .thertl,..but the execution of Rites unhappily been. neglected. "The"giii article .of 'the Decree was in fact conceived in these t.runt .eltief Judge, Minister of, 4iwicg t may. nutinOhe the printing -oldie necessary works of 'the Oriental Lan guages, as won 'for the ' instruction of the pupils, as to keep up in the compositors the knowledge and habits of their work.' And the thh.article provided for the reimbursement of the expellees, by means of sale. These regulations suffice for the accomplish ment of the plan, the object and advantages of which I have just pointed nut. 1 therefore pro pose to your Majesty to graitt your approbation to this plan, end to order that article 8 of tin. Decree of c.),c2d 'March*, ISIS, may at length be carried into execution. " The French Literati will, I doubt not, 1w ;eager to concur in important enterprise, and to contribute, by their attention and their coun cils, to the new monuments which your Ma ' jesty will consecrate to the glory of letters and• of ,FrAnce. ant, with the most profound reapect,.

PARLIAMENTARY PAPER. The Commissioners on forms of Process and Courts of Appeal in Scotland, have mad e th e i r Report. It occupies no less than 367 folio pages. The following regulations are proposed for adop tion in the Court of Teinds " That in regard to the judicial powers of the Court of Teinds, it would be highly adviseable anti expedient, that they should be exercised by the Court, in either of its divisions as in ordinary civil causes. The Commissioners, therefore, humbly propose, that all actions of valuation and sale of Teinds, and all localities and questions connected therewith, and generally all legal questions, which at present can be competently tried and determined by tl►e court of Teinds, or by t►►e Lord Ordinary under remits front that court, should, in future, be brought be fore one or other of the divisions of the Court of Session, sitting as Cmnmissioners for Teinds, and should be prepared before the junior Lord Ordinary, as nearly as possible, according to the forms above recommended for civil actions, anti that the Lord Ordinary should not only have power to report his opinion to the Court as at present ; but should also have power to pronounce judgment in the cause, or in case of difficulty, to take the cause generally to report, in which the forms of carrying the cause to the Inner House for decision should be the same, as nearly as possible, as the Commissioners have recommended in other causes; and that one judgment of the Lord Ordinary on the merits should be final in the Outer House, and one judgement of the division final in the Inner House." ROTANIC,ALAND HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY, NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE. The first Show of Fruits, &c. of this recently establisbed Society took place at the Long Room of the Turk's Head Inn, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, on Monday the 23d instant, and, considering the infant state of the Society, exhibited a dis play that was every way gratifying, and maned to give promise of that success ultimately, which cannot fail to be of eminent benefit and utility to the district, which comprises Durham, Northumberland, and Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The Peaches and Grapes furnished from the gardens of the Bishop of Dun ' lIAM, at Auckland Castle, struck us as being of an extremely rich and exuberant growth; as were also the Grapes from Whitehill (the seat of Isaac Cookson, Esq.), as w e ll as th e samples produced from Fenham HMI (James G. Clarke's, Esq.), and those from Mr. Askew's at Red lleugh. Some very fine Melons and Pine-apples were also exhibited from other Gentlemen's gardens in the neighbourhood, part of which was grown upon the grounds of A. Cresswell Baker, Esq., at Creswell: the richest and finest Gooseberries we ever saw came from this Gentleman's gardens. Some very rich Grapes and other fruits were sent from Woolsington, the seat of Matthew Bell, Esq. In short, the offerings of Pomona were luxuriant in the extreme. It is only matter of regret, that in a hasty communication of this sort, it is impossible to do justice to all the claimants. The official Report of the Secretary only can be looked up to for that fullness of information, which a sub. ject sa highly interesting unquestionably deserves. Aker the Committee had duly examined the various fruits, &c. which had been brought to the Exhibition, assigning to each sample the label of its merit, preparations were made for alinner, and a little after five o'clock upwards of !Oa Gentlemen sat down to at least a substantially furnished table. Amongst the company present we recognized Sir M. W. Ridley, Bart. M.P., Thomas Beaumont, Esq. ALP., Chas. W. Bigge, Esq., Charles Clavering, Esq., Dixon Brown, Esq., James G. Clarke, Esq., W. Shaw, Esq., (Usworth-House), A, Cress. well Baker, Esq., Aldermen Forster and Bell, Hey. Messrs. 11. 0. Liddell, (1101(ion), J. Collinson, (Gateshead), ------... Thompson, (Warden), J.

The Chair was filled by Oran I..rs W. Berme:, Esq. in his usual felicitous manner, though we regret to state his occupancy of it lasted only a short while, being summoned into the country on particular business about an hour a f ter t h e c l ot h was drawn. CHAR Lts Cr.a,vEntaro, Esq. took the vacated s en t, an d di sc h arge d i ts arduous duties with great attention and talent, befog ably sup ported by James Graham Clarke, Ea+ as Vice. President— . must not forget to observe, that the Latin Grace of Non NOW Own, was sung in very fine style by three gentlemen amateurs. The detail of the toasts we shall waive, merely re ' marking that they issued from the Chair and the Vice. Chair in tke happiest manner, with reference to the occasion of the aloetin g . In point of fact, nothing could exceed the plea surable recreation of the evening. Every one present seemed to hail with heartfelt satisfaction a new eras in this district, in the elegant and useful science of horticulture." a science which"—it was justly observed by one of the speakers (Mr. Higge)—" was alike beneficial to all classes of the community, contributing, as it did; most essentially to their pleasures and comforts." On drinking the healthy of the Members for Northumberland, and for Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Mr. BEAU MONT and Sir M. W. ItityLEY severally returned thank., in neat and appropriate terror; as did also Mr. Alderman FORSrun, when the Mayor and Corporation of Newcastle were given. The VICE•I'IIESIDENT gave, in very handsome terms, the health of a Gentleman to whom the Society were much indebt. ed ; he meant Mr. Falb, of Gateshead. Mr. FALLA, jun., rose and acknowledged the compliment paid his father (whose absence that day was unavoidable) in very neat and appropriate language. On the health' of the Committee of Management being drank (and indeed they well merited the compliment, for the excellent and efficient arrangements they had made) 0. A. LAMBERT' Esq. rose and returned thank s i n su it a bl e t e rms. The fine band of the Ist Regiment of Dragoons attended in the Orchestra, and contributed by their sprightly music not a little to the general entertainment. Some fine singing, at in• tervals, by a well known and highly scientific amateur, tended vastly to increase the charm of the evening's am t 1 sements. The finale was rather late, but every one departed highly gratified , with the treat they had so agroably experienced. THE SCOTCH BALL FIDDLERS. Immediately preceding the Cows, ALEXAN. DER MACGILASUIEN, a native of Perthshire, conti nued for u number of years at the head of his profession, and contributed much to keep alive the increasing taste for our reels and jigs by his own excellent performance, and also the judi cious selection which he contrived to make for his band, from the many amateurs who, about this period, seem to have been ambitious to dis tinguish themselves. His principal violoncello was an Englishman, Joseph lieneagle, but he did not remain long in Scotland.—Aftleck was instructed by him, and we believe he also gave Nathaniel Gow his first lessons on the violon cello.---!t was about the year 1750, we think, that the assemblies in Edinburgh were first de lighted with the superior playing of an occa sional assistant, who was brought from Dunkeld, and who was soon known among the musicians by his peculiar and powerful method of bowing. His upward stroke was never feeble or indistinct, but was struck with great certainty and strength. To this extraordinary power of the bow in his hands, must be ascribed that singular felicity of expres sion w hich he gave to all his music, and the native Highland gout of certain tunes, such as " Tul lochgorum," in which his taste and style of bow ing could never afterwards be exactly reached by any other performer. Neil Gow was born in Strathbrand, Perthshire►, of humble but honest parents, in the year 1727, and, like Mackintosh, was bred to the trade of a plaiding weaver. His talent for music was early decided. At the age of nine he commenced playing, and continued till he was about thirteen, with no other guide than his own untutored genius. An attendant of Sir George Stewart of G rand tully,however, it is said, at this time, gave him some instructions, and an anecdote is related, remarkable for its conclud ing circumstance, and as being perhaps the first acknowledgment of that peculiar professional ability to which he afterwards owed his fame.— A number of the best performers in the country proposed a trial of skill, and young Neil, believ ing himself no match for masters in the art, at first declined the contest, but was at length pre vailed on to enter the lists. One of the minstrels, a blind man, was chosen umpire, and the prize was adjudged to Neil Gow, by a sentence, confirmed in its justice by cheerful acquiescence of the other competitors. In giving his decision, the judge de dared he could distinguish the stroke qf Neil's burp among a hundred players. The first distinguished patronage with which he was honoured was that of the noble family of Athol, where he always con tinued on terms of the utmost familiarity, and at assemblies, not unfrequently addressed the Duke jocularly by his surname, " Jock!" while his lin gers ran up the strings producing the signal of a drouthy orchestra," the fiddlers diy !" Ile was rapidly brought Into repute in the metropolis at a time highly fortunate for his rising fame. The circles of fashion in Edinburgh were then led by the Duchess of Gordon, at whose celebrated par ties Neil Gow was a necessary ornament, and her Grace soon introduced him to universal notice. From this period, Gow's excellence was doubt less unrivall e d i n hi s d e p ar t men t o f our national music, and, in truth, formed an era in the pro gress of its improvement, the way to which was paved by his predecessors, and has since been vastly indebted for its completion to his 50115. We must say, however, that the style of Gow had too much nature, and was too energetic to please a modern assembly, accompanied frequent ly as it was by the sudden shout or heugh ! iu quick tunes, electrifying and rousing the spirits of the most inanimate dancers. ltaeburn's admirable portrait of him, painted for the li on. Mr. Manic, of innocence Paninure, gives a c omp l ete idea of the Orpheus haveto w beguiled hose g notes thousandsiltsofce on o o f t acreik and pleasure, beauty and David Allan has introduced him with good effect iu his Bighland Wedding, with a striking likeness of his brother Donald, who continued long his constant, and steady v i o li ncello without whom, indeed, in his latt er years a t' least, he could scarcely be prevailed on to play a note.-- Though he had raised himself to independent and affluent circumstan ces i n hi s o ld age, he was al ways free from eve r y a pp earance o f vanity, an d retained to the last th e s ame p l a i n an d unassum ing simplicity which marked his early and more obscure years. The expression of his countenance was spirited and intelligent, and his figure manly and robust. His portrait has been repeatedly copied as a model of what national partiality would conceive a Scottish Highlander to be. In private life, Neil Gow was distinguished by a vigorous understanding, and was singularly acute in the discrimination of characters of all ranks with whom he had intercourse. The dif. ferent publications which have appeared under his name, and which contain not only his sets of the older tunes, but many occasional airs of his own composition, for instance, his " Lament for Abercairney," "Loch Errochside," &c. evince his genius, feeling, and power of embellish ment. Ile was twice married, and had a large family by his first wife, Margaret 'Wiseman : his second, Margaret Urquhart, had no children. After a long life, spent in honour at the summit of his profession, he died at Inver, near Dun keld, on the Ist of March, 1807. Solicitous to bring his sons into the right practice of their art, he wisely adopted efficient measures. Mackin tosh, formerly noticed, or Red Rob, as he was called from the colour of his hair, with whom he was intimate, had better opportunities, from his residence in Edinburgh, and constant application, and was himself a capital performer, of which by this time lie Was lint ignorant, had his seat always elevated a little above any other musicians when h e played at a party- The young Gows were therefore first sent over to him, and continued under his instructions till near the time lie went to London ; but it was from their father that they inherited that finished style and execution which marked them as true descendants of Old Neil.-- ( Edinburgh Courant.) Miss PATON is considerably recovered fr om her illness. We understand she has entered into an engagement with Mr. AnzioLD, and will shortly succeed Miss STEPHENS at the English Opera-House.--(lllorning Post.) roil THE SUN. Ma: Enrrott--4 am again induced in address you on the subject of the war with the Bhur mese, which I -seriously regretto see has com menced the work oT destruClion. It must ever be a matter of serious regret to every persou pos . - sessed- of huthane 'feelings, that war should be `resorted to at all. It is ever productive of the greatest calamities that human nature can be subjected to ; in which the innocent generally suffer for the guilty. A war with the Bhurtnese, or any of the Native Powers of India, I consider as extremely impolitic, if not even dangerous, as it must be known to you that the Company pos sesses an extent of territory sufficient to satisfy the most ambitious monarch, and only equalled by the Russian Empire, though unequalled by it in population. That the Honourable East India Company (for whose Government I entertain the highest respect) should attempt to increase their territory by fresh conquests, is folly,, if not mad ness ; which folly or madness can only be equalled by the facility with which they seem to involve themselves in a war with that very power ful and resolute nation, the Bhurmese, on account of a paltry squabble, and that a drunken one most likely, amongst the ignorant natives uith Mr. Joux Cum, a pilot commanding a small surveying vessel, named the Sophia, as appears in the following extract from an East India Paper : " 3lr. Chew left his vessel the Sophia, forewarned of his danger, but he asserted that the truest candour was legible in the countenances of the Bhurmese, and he has determined, relying on his own judgment of character, and knowledge of physiognomy, to visit them whenever it might be convenient to do so; an opportunity soon occurred ; on the 20th January he was invited by two persons, who had just arrived at Mung duo from Ava, to go on shore. Every one in the Sophia endea voured, by argument, to prevent his accepting .the invitation. The commanding officer at Tik Naaf pointed out the impro priety of his running any risk, and he was strongly dissuaded by all from the absurd enterprize. But he was resolved, and employed himself and butler the night prior to his visit in making gin and peppermint cordials, fur the purpose of regaling the Bhurmese Rajahs." Now, Mr. Editor, the above statement speaks volumes, and places the whole of the thing in its proper light. It is not improbable that Mr. luw, whom I remember as sober a man as any of his profession, being charged with gin and peppermint cordial, and thus flushed, Dutch courage, may have forgotten himself, and imagined that he was a British Admiral when he informed the natives that he had 1,500 Sa Its per month wages, and the Pseudo-Admiral forgot his pacific duties as pilot, and assumed a warlike appear ance; and when the natives proposed conducting Highness to the King of Ava, he attempted, Mr. Editor, to draw, not his marlings' spike, but his sword forsooth, as it is said, and Quixote-like, offered to resist with force 300 armed men. This, Mr. Editor, is the first time I ever heard of a pilot being allowed to wear a sword. They nei ther are allowed side-arms nor uniforms, and the service to which CHEW belongs was formerly made up of common sailors of all nations, that had left their ships in India ; but I am happy t o find that the service is much improved of late years by some wise and very necessary regula tions of the Marine Board, under the management of Commodore HAYES, the Master Attendant. Many lives and valuable ships were lost during my residence in India, from the drunkenness and unprincipled conduct of the pilots in charge of them ; but a letter to me, from Calcutta, of which I send you an extract, proves that they are now under a very different denomination your getting the young man into the Pilot Service, you h ave provided for him :or life. That service is at present much more respectable than it was in your time; many of the young , ne „ , a ppointed within the last five or six years, are complete gentlemen In conduct and qualifications, and among the older ones intemperance has been considerably checked by severe punishments inflicted upon the depraved and careless. One of the pilots has just left the service, and retired to England on his ,$OOl. per annum pension, and has saved a fortune of 110,000 sicca rupees, though he is not able to write his own name." I think, Mr. Editor, I have communicated enough on this subject to show that every means ought s i t e Government,lli ld i trust , for ave t b l e ie en ho u n s i:u d r , . ( I ) ) f efo tl r i e e the, dreadful appeal to arms was resorted to. Would it not be wise and proper, Mr. Editor, that all military men should ever be excluded from all pacific negotiations, tl►e result of which would he war ? And it is equally impolitic to appoint lawyers to settle differences between con tending parties, where a rich law-suit be waythe result. I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, J. W. PARKINS. No. 9, Essex.street, Strand, Aug. 25, 1824. --- SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—This morning, as OH elderly Lady was passing along the Hampstead road, she was knocked down by a carriage, the wheels of which passed over her body. Several Gentlemen immediately proceeded to her assist ance, and found her in a most dreadful situation, and in a state of insensibility. She was instantly carried to a neighbouring surgeon's, .who ren. dared her every assistance ; but unfortunately the vital spark had lied. The proprietor of the coach was ascertained, and the lady now lies for a Coroner's Inquest. A villanous attempt was made on Friday last to fire the Exeter Theatre. During the tempo rary absence of the cheque-taker, just at the commencement of the farce, some malicious scoun drel put a lighted paper into a lamp in the pas. sage leading to the pit, which setting fire to the cotton in it, produced a high flame, and a great deal of smoke, which the current of air through the avenues naturally conveyed into the pit. This attempt having been accompanied by the cry of 44 Fire !" the confusion which took place may be easily conceived. Ladies were shrieking and fainting in various directions, and in one minute the most timid of the audience found themselves in safety on the outside of the I Theatre ; but those who• remained were soon sa. tided, by the exertions of Mr. H arvey, the stage.manager of their security. " G o d save the King" was then played by the orch estra) and the performance proceeded. * e MASONIC NOTICES FOR NEXT WEEK. ENGLAND. Monday, August 30, Ido).'001.4. Not. 91, 45 1 Gov writy.
