The New Brunswick Gazettes, quoted in the Edinburgh Papers, contain an official document of great r 4 P or tance—the d es p atc h o f th e E ng li s h P r i me Minister, dd Gonititicn, suspending the Alien Bill (in Upper Ca ada), which has lately excited BO much attention and pro- Li ca , ' much dis content . Th e d ocument i s o f g r e at l e n g th, lid enters into the details on the subject of the aliens. It 4t ates that Lord BATHURST brought forward the act under i mis taken ideas, and that th e l oca l a uth o rities were free ~ e all blam e , th ey bein g under the necessity of carrying r bill into effect. The new act proposed is so liberal, th at it must necessarily give universal satisfaction. The rums entitled to the privileges of British subjects arc— )Bt. All .persons who have received grants of land from tile Provincial Government. 2. All persons who have L eld any public of fi ce in the p rov i nce . 3d. All persons who have at any time been admitted by the Provincial Government, or its officers, to take the oath of allegiance. 4 th. All persons resident in Upper Canada, who have had their settled place of abode in the province previous to the Year 1820. To all these classes of persons, the privilege ( it English bi rt h would be granted, without any condition Or qualification whatever. The doCument then enters into details respecting the foreigners newly arrived ; and it breathes such a spirit of liberality and conciliation, that we hav e no doubt we shall hear no more of the spirit of dis content on this subject in Upper Canada.

NAVARIN.—The harboui of Navarin lies at the south-west corner of the Morea. It is of a roundish form, with an island lying across the mouth of it. The entrance is by the south end of the island, where the pas sage is 600 yards wide ; the north entrance is too shallow for large vessels. The island is two miles long, and a quarter of a mile broad. The basin is six miles in circum ference. The port of Navarin is the ancient harbour of Pylus. In the seventh year of the Peloponnesian war, Demosthenes, time Athenian general, seized and fortified Pylus. A Spartan army immediately besieged him there, and part of them passed over, to the island, then called Sphacteria, for the purpose of completely blockading him, while the fleet watched the entrances of the harbour. An Athenian fleet, at last, entering the harbour, by both mouths, attacked the Spartan fleet lying within, and de stroyed the whole of it. The Spartans on the island, being cut off from all assistance, surrendered prisoners at discre tion to the Athenians. The late battle was fought on the Greeks defeated the Persian fleet, on the 20th of Octobe r , ann iversary of the great b a ttle of Salamis,. wher ein the 460, B.C. 2306 years ago. May we indulge the hope that this battle is an omen of an equally happy and glorious deliverance for Greece ?..-Scotsman. PROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE.

DOUVILLE, PROFESSOR OF THE FRENCH LANGUAGE, No. 1, Soho.gquare, near the Balser; and 2, Lawrence-lane, Cheapside, London, 1827. TO THE EDITOR. OF THE SUN. SIR,---The French Language being usually lean, with a view to conversation, a Grammar which would afford the Student an opportunity of acquir ing a collection of phrases necessary for conversa tion, while he gradually attains a thorough know ledge of the elementary principles of the language, could not fail to prove eminently serviceable. Such is the consideration by which I have been influenced in presenting the public with this new production. My grand object has been to render the speaking of French as easy and familiar to English persons, as if they studied in Paris. To accomplish this great de sideratum, I have composed the essays on the rules of passages and sentences used in ordinary discourse. By construing them into French, the pupil will not only store his mind ,with useful expressions, but he will likewise insensibly imbibe just notions of the Grammatical technicalities 'of the language. This is of the utmost importance for speaking French ; for, unless the learner is properly trained up in the prac tical part, he will :never be able to hold the least course with a native of France, although he may be a proficient in the theory of the language. The na ture of the French Verbs is, also, exhibited in quite a new and clear manner, and the remarks on pro nunciation are collected from the present practice of the fashionable circles in Paris. The work is con cluded by a Grammatical Analysis, and a Treatise on French Prosody and Versification; besides a classified vocabulary, a compendium of familiar phrases, and numerous models of notes, letters of compliment and - busine,ss. In the execution of the whole, in short, the speaking of the language has a prominent feature; and I flatter myself this Gram mar will be found peculiarly adapted to the capacity of the generality of learners, being divided into sixty easy lessons and essays, which will prove no less instructive than agreeable.. . I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient humble servant, London, Nov. 16, 1527. J. V. DOUVILLE, P.S. A Key to the Essays is just published. [We have carefully examined this Key to Mr. Douville's excellent Grammar, anti can safely affirm that it is exe cuted with much fidelity and spirit. It ' forms a very useful accompaniment to the Grammar, rendering it com petent foi those who choose to he self-taught in the French language, to make themselves masters of it without the assistance of a teacher. As such, we have no hesitation in recommending- Douville's Grammar and Key as :being the hest calcuip.ted for speaking French, which we have hitherto seen.]- 7 -Entro R. BRAZILIAN MINING COMPANY, 'l'o THE EDITOR OF THE .SUN. Sir,—l am a considerable holder of shares in the Brazilian Mining Company; and from seeing them gradually advance, according to the quotations in the daily prints, I have searched every newspaper to endeavour and discover the cause of such advance. To-day . I went to the Brazilian Office, and after having perused the last dispatches, I enquired the reason why none of the daily papers alluded to the enormous prcduce. I received for answer, " That the person who composes the or Money Market' article of each paper, was aware of the produce, but that they were determined to , insert nothing of a favourable nature with respect to shares ; and that the reason the Morning ---- has occasionally spoken favourably of this specula tion (and of this one only) is, that Mr. 15 brother-in-law to one of the Directors." I should hope, Mr. Editor, for the honour of the Press, that these allegations are not true, and .I trust there is more liberality in the spirit of the times, than to allow an e nterprise in bona fide prosperity, to be sullied because s'--Filar undertakings have failed through the mismanagement of their Directors. I am, Sir, your obedient Servant, A CONSTANT READER. Union Club, Thursday Evening, Nov. 15, 1827, ALL HALLOW; FAIR.—The supply of cattle ran from 14,000 to 16,000. Business began with the fat cattle, and a number of lots were sold at prices about the same as are obtained in the Grassmarket. There was a very large supply of lean stock. The six quarter and two yearlings which remained over from Doune, crowded the market, and lean nearly unsaleable. Their prices ran ac•• cording to quality from 1/. 15s, to 4/. Three yearling stots sold from 31. Ss. to 11. 10s. Heifers were in parti cular request, but there was only one good lot on the ground. There were the best supply of milk cows which has been seen for a number of years. The holders stood out for high prices, and on the whole but little busi ness was done in them. A town's dairyman hought the best couple that appeared for 36/. • They were in excellent order, and will calve in about eight or ten days. In the evening, there was a numerous muster of horses in the Grassmarket. As nearly as could be ascertained, there was about 700 shown for sale. Good horses were iu de mand, but those of an inferior sort were little minded. On the whole, so far as business has yet gone, it has been rather a dull market.-- Glasgow Chronicle.

SWAFFLIAM COURSING MEETING SWAFFHAM, Nov. 15.—There has been a considerable accession of visitors since our last, and the town is now full of sportsmen, horses, and dogs (of the latter upwards of 100 are here). At the grand Ball on Friday night, all the great families of the County were present. Another will be given to-night. The ball-room has been improved since last year by Mr. Newham, the Norwich architect. The first day's coursing was in the West-acre field, where the hares were plentiful, but fat and unwieldy, from the mildness of the weather ; they invariably made for the wood, without reaching it, as they were soon turned, and after innumerable wiffles, killed before they could get to the cover. - The second day's sport (yesterday) was in the Cley-field, where the bares ran stronger, and kept better before the dogs. The course between Woodman and Asp, for the Cup, was remarkably severe, and won only by downright bard work—the loser (Woodman) the favourite at '3 to 1. The puppy matches were excellent, nearly 700 horsemen were present, and an amazing number of pedestrians. The second day's sport went off as under : TIM GOLD Cur.--SECOND CLASS.

FOX CHASE EXTRAORDINARY. Saturday will be a day long to be remembered by the lovers of the "sharp and decisive." The small but justly celebrated pack of hounds belonging to Thomas Jennings; Esq. of the Vro, after running and killing a hare, unken nelled a fine dog-fox in the Combe Wood, near to Ewyas- Harrold, which they killed in a field at Tresemme ? in a style that would haVe done credit to any "crack pack of the day," after a brilliant run of one ,hour and a half, without a single check. During this noble chase lie crossed the river Munnow four times, but such was the determined courage of sportsmen and dogs, that not even the swollen tide could stop them. It was, to use the lan guage of an " old one," the most " out and out" ever .witnessed, and it is but justice to add to this record of u splendid day, that Mr. Jennings proved himself a hunts man indeed; he was where he ought to be, and always is, when " Trumps are to be played." The county ball on Tuesday last, at the Town hall, was fashionably and numerously attended. Many of the principal families in the neighbourhood were present.— Cambridge Paper. _ _ There are now growing in the garden of Mr. W. BEVAN, jun., at Morriston, near Swansea, two beau tiful hydrangeas, one of which is 38 ft. 10 in. in circum ference, bearing 1,330 blossoms, being 5 ft. 4 in. larger, and having 498 blossoms more, than that noticed in our last week's paper as growing at Amroth Castle, Pembroke shire. The luxuriance of those plants, growing in the im mediate neighbourhood of the Copper-works, affords an evi dent proof that the smoke is not so prejudicial to vegeta tion as many intelligent persons imagine.—Carmarthen Journal. We are glad to find that Mr. BUNN is likely to be patronised in a marked manner, by LordANGLESEA, upon his arrival in this country. A letter, we understand, has been received from the Noble Marquis, enclosing a draft to the Lessee for 300 guineas, as the rent of a private box for the ensuing year. We likewise understand, that Lord Artorusaa has signified his intention of visiting the Theatre in State, once in each month during the season.—Dublin Morning Register. ABD UCTION.—On Wednesday' night last, as Miss JANE KINCAID, only daughter of Mr. D. KINCAID, of Drtimbuoy, near NeWtown-Cunningham, • who had been in this city consulting a physician relative to her mother's health, was returning home, accompanied •by a man and two nsaid servants, she was overtaken on the road by a young man, named FRANCIS M‘GOWAN, of the neighbour hood of Cookstown, county of Tyrone, who leaped into the cart in which the young lady was, and began to take liberties with . her, which she indignantly repelled. At Portlough he was joined by Mr. Was. M'GowaN, his brother,. and Mr. JOHN MARSHALL, to whose niece WILLIAM is married, and the three insisted that Miss KINCAID should accompany them to Tubber, the residence of • MARSHALL, but this she decidedly refused. Mr. Was. M‘GowAN then rode up, arul seizing the reins of her horse, turned him into the Tubber road, and by the powerful appli cation of his whip hastened the animal's pace to a gallop. Miss KINCAID screamed .violently, and attempted to leap out, but FRANCIS M‘Gowarg held her in the cart till their arrival at Tubber. Next morning, at four o'clock, M'GowAN said he would take Miss KINCAID home, and, believing him sincere, she and the maid went out to get - into the cart as they imagined ; hui; she was dragged back into the ball and locked in, and the young lady was con veyed away, but whither has not yet been discovered. These facts were sworn to on Saturday last in Raphoe, be fore a bench of Magistrates, and warrants were issued for the apprehension of the agents in this aggravated outrage. The young lady is only nineteen, and will be entitled to a handsoine fortune ) (upwards of three thousand pounds,) if she marries with her fathet's consent.--'Londonderry Jour. LITERATURE. DUKE OF SUSSEX'S LIBRARY. The literary world has been just gratified with the appearance of a ivorksentitkA; " BIBLIOTHEca. SUSsEXIANA ; or, a Descriptive Catalogue of the MSS. and Printed Books contained in the Library H. R. H. the Duke of Sussex, at Kensington Palace," from the pen of Mr. Pettigrew, who holds the two-fold office of Surgeon and librarianliete,to literary r toy i Royal Highness. Whenever the state of political intelligence has permitted us - to devote a few of our columns to topics of literary interest, we have never failed to direct attention to those works which we o conceive Irobdoucti repleteotn o s possess of th with e present e t; d m publics u t so daye fu public inaeresß more. patro n age, entitledreo:viag p this distinction than the one now introduced to public notice. In the first place, we cannot but view this publication as one of peculiar importance, from the high quarter with whose intellectual taste and treasures it makes us so tharoughly acquainted. Few things can be more - Valuable, or ought to be more gratifying to a people, than to have their Princes distinguished as the friends of learning, and the promoters of pure religion ; for such a distinc tion can scarcely be disunited from a spirit, of genuine patriotism, and a correct notion of the rights as well as duties of mankind. We do not, how ever, mean to assert that:the mere fact of a Prince or Monarch being possessed of a magnificent collec tion of books and manuscripts, will alone constitute either the cause or the proof of a great and enlight ened mind. A man may have a splendid library without having read a single volume in it. Libraries have sometimes been the prize of conquest, some times the heir-loom of inheritance, and oftener still got together from motives of idle pomp and ostenta tion. Xerxes profited but little by the noble collec tion of Pisistratus, which he carried away from Athens. The magnificent libraries of the Kings of France at Paris, and the Pontiffs in the Vatican, have often been possessed by owners far removed from cherishing sentiments worthy of the masters of such concentrated masses of science and philosophy, Ind we have amongst us a considerable class of book-collectors, _who know and care but little for any thing more than the date and title of what they purchase. On the other hand, however, let us not forget how Egypt was fast rising into eminence and glory, under the enlightened rule and literary genius of the Ptolemies; how, even amidst the civil broils and the constant press of danger from surrounding enemies, she still maintained a proud situation; and that" the great City of the West" was the resort. of all that was celebrated in arts and learning, a well as commerce, till a barbarous army, led by a till more barbarous commander, consigned her store. of wisdom to the flames, and hurled her back into her sad condition of primeval darkness. We know also how, in later days, the literary taste and patronage of the House of Medici, could lift up small republic, in the north of Italy, almost to a level in fame with the most celebrated of ancient or modern nations. Is it not then unquestionable that a people ought not, cannot be indifferent,to literary character of the higher orders in society; that a love of science in a ruler, is always seen to act as a main spring to its general advancement through all the inferior orders, and that, even in the least promising of such cases, the public at large are deeply in terested. Those only who have been engaged in works of extensive erudition, can appreciate fully the benefit of having the records of learning carefully areserved and easily accessible. That such a public advantage is really existing in the magnificent collec tion of the Duke of Sussex, no one who has the honour and happiness of having seen it will for a moment doubt, and who knows also the feelings and purposes under which that collection has been made. It has not been won by conquest, nor inherited as a legacy, nor got together for purposes of idle osten tation. It has been purchased volunie by volume, at the sacrifice of many an object of princely luxury and indulgence, and from a pure love of knowledge, and a desire to secure the best means of acquiring it for himself and imparting it to otherS who may seek it. It is not, therefore, peculiarly distinguished by those literary rarities which are sought after and valued like a Queen Anne's Farthing, though spe cimens of the best and most precious kind, both of transcription and illumination in MSS., and of printing and engraving in every stage of their pro gress towards maturity, are not wanting. But it is now time to say something of the Catalogue itself. The purpose.of 34r. Pettigrew, is to give an account in the first instance, only of the Theological part of the collection, comprising from 50,000 to 60,000 volumes, and of this part, an account only of the ASS., and the Polyglott, Hebrew, Greek, and Latin Bibles , is contained in the two parts compos ing the first volnmeS which are already printed. But the pains that have been taken, and the accuracy as ',tell as minuteness of detail manifested throughout, cannot be praised or appreciated too highly. To the biblical collector, those volumes present a body of information unequalled in any former work of the same kind, and to the biblical student a mass of matter culled from the very highest authorities, and brought together in a form peculiarly inviting. We cannot hesitateto say, that-the knowledge they con tain, is essential to every accomplished scholar, and especially to every - clergyrean, as a part of his pro fessional acquirements. • The matter concerning the Hebrew Rolls, their peculiar requisites, their cha racter as divided into Spanish, Italian, and German, the History of the principal Jewish MSS., &c., is what no theological student should omit to read. The same .may be said, and perhaps still more strongly, of the account given of the several Polyglotts, and of the able criticisms supplied by Dr. Adam Clarke, for this part of the work before us. The notices of Walton's Polyglott, that " glory of the English Church and nation," are more full and satisfactory than had ever yet been given to the public. We shall only instance further, the pre liminary observations on the subject of missals, breviaries, and books of offices, as well as the illus trations of ancient armour, as connected with some of jatie t l h e e l iss t t alia ate i d t MSS., tobe and forid whichl n the m est accurate ento ine(l in formation of Dr. Meyrick. In short, Mr. Pettigrew, like a man of sense and candour, with n work in hand, to which no single individual is fully com petent, has neither oniii - ted to seek information wherever it could best be found, or candidly to declare suonl undertaki ng; objectta k t t he eg has; a extent bnedea t o we o f do(1 assistance orio full t scruple pi giv en el ee ttoo is sy i r weighty His thats gone, he has produced a work worthy, as far as it has of the illustrious Prince wh o h as entruste d t h at office to his hands, worthy' of the British public, even in this intellectual age, and worthy of himself as the custos and supetintendant of Such a library. But, as has been already intimated, the pnbtic ere bound to recollect, that one part only of this great work has been yet placed within theis reach. Nothing of the English part of this tru ) se princely and , interesting collection has been yet noticed, though, as we happen to know, tot on ly are t h e literary treasures of this department infinitely curious and important, but that the matter already collected for their history a nd'telucidation, will be found, to a very great extent, new to the great bulk of readers, and entitled to the best attention of every one studious of theological knowledge, and the eccle siastical history of these realms. The public records have been ransacked, valuable communications have been kindly furnished, much light has been thrown on our most important controversies, on' religious points of faith or discipline; and it only remains for that pubic, in whoie cause Mr. Pettigrew has so industriously laboured, to show their readiness to receive, and their willingness to profit by his labours. We cannot permit ourselves to doubt that such a' work will be hailed with eagerness, and, in an age like this, meet the encouragement it deserves.— Works of • distinguished merit have sometimes failed f'greonmerailaci:.,coofnspualttreod by y e ; but th e y h ave b een o f a kind' less popular, and we may a dd l ess genera ll y useful, than that now b e f ore u s.
