Messrs. BEAVAN and PERRINS .beg to apprise the Public and Faculty, that this preparation is now (after a lon g an d very elaborate process) brought to a high degree of perfection, and will enable Invalids and Travellers at a distance from the Springs to possess the superior ad vantage of the Cheltenham Waters in the nearest state of approximation. b Prepared by Messrs.

" The affairs of Java, when the James left Batavia, (Bth of March), remained in a critical position; (luring the three mouths previous, the rebels had advanced upon the Colonists, much increased in Power and numbers. On the lit of March they were but 30 or 40 miles from Sa marang. The force that the Government could oppose to them at this time could not be great at any particular point, from the necessity of dividing their troops to occupy many military posts, as the rebellion is so general through a large part of the Island. " Numerous plantations- of coffee and sugar had been entirely destroyed by the rebels. " The conducting-of the war in Java was very difficult, by reason of the policy of the rebel chiefs, who constantly decline a general engagement. Whenever attacked by any considerable European force, they immediately retire, and if pursued, disperse, watching every opportunity of at•. tacking the Dutch in small bodies. The excessive fatigue occasioned by this desultory warfare, causes sickness among the European troops, which has destroyed more men than the swords of the rebels, and considerably weakened the power of the Colonists. " When the James left Batavia, official news had just arrived from the Netherlands, that 3,000 troops were on the point of embarking for Batavia, who would probably arrive in May or June. With this assistance, it is ex pected the Colonists will quell the rebellion. " Your's, &c. W. If. FOSTER." Our reporters in the several parts of this county give us very favourable accounts of the progress of the harvest. We had rain on Wednesday, which continued almost without intermission.—Kilkenny Independent. Wells great Market, on Saturday last, was scantily supplied with cheese of all description ; the sale was brisk, and the. few parcels of the finer sorts were eagerly purchased at an advance of from 4s. to 6s. per cwt. The smaller quantity of new produced was speedily disposed of at about 565. The cattle-market was by no means large, nor can we quote any alteration in prices. The fair on the previous day was in every respect poorly supplied and thinly attended.—Bath Herald. SINGULAR CAPTIVITY.—Mr. James Boag, timber merchant, Johnstone, lately breaking up a log of American wood, about 24 feet in length and 28 inches square, discovered in the very centre of it, a hollow, in which were a considerable number of living bees, a quan tity of honey, and a few larvae. The imprisoned insects were longer and of a more attenuated frame than the- five tribes that roam over the hills and valleys of Britain.— Every care was taken to preserve some of the interesting fore►gners alive, but they all died in a short time after ex posure to the influence of the atmosphere, hardly tasting the sweets of liberty till consigned to non-existence. The log contained several of these hollows of different dimen sions, and in all of them a number of living bees. , ~.: .. . , .... . ,s,. , N 1 . _ \ No. 10,878.

DAY, for his recent most im portant Improvements in the Materials and Construction of OFFICERS' BEDSTEADS, which Improvements are also applicable to every description of Portable Furniture, combining Extension and Security, His EXTENDING BEDSTEADS, with SHOULDER PILLARS, will be found a great acquisition to Officers, front the facility they possess in removing; and the security of the Pillar can also be applied to any other Bedstead, at the moderate expence of One Guinea only, and will en tirely obviate the inconvenience so often experienced in Field Bedsteads, from the Screw of the Pillar breaking, and thus rendering the application of the Furniture, or the Mosquito Net, entirely useless, but which is so highly es sential in Warm Climates. W. D. begs to add, that his Patent Metallic EXTEND ING BEDSTEADS will be found most elegant and eon venient articles in Private Families, as well also to Gentle men residing in Chambers, &c. His EXPANDING and PRESS TRUNKS have already so well established themselves in the Public Esti mation, as to render any comment upon their utility here quite unnecessary.

THIS invaluable Medicine has been a Family Secret for a number of years, during which time it has been used with the most complete success, and is now for the first time offered to the public as an effectual remedy for that disease ; many patients who have been sent from the hospitals as incurable, besides numerous others, have been perfectly restored by its means. Quart bottles may be had .at U. each, or pints at 10s., at I, Elder -street, Spital-square, where also satisfactory proofs of its efficacy will be given. The cure is completed in nine days, two quart bottles being sufficient. It is proper to remark, that the medicine is perfectly innocent in its operations, and may be taken by infants with the most perfect safety. Patients may be seen from ten till one on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. , - .4.. v ~._. •., .q . **. _ _ . e Yki - , , i. r-p, , , . 0 1,14.4 ,------ L k". gl' ' ;.- --' ' .. i 4; ,•-', N / AU_ .

LEOPARD-HUNTING.--The leopard of Southern Africa is known among the Cape colonists by the name of tiger ; but is, in fact, the real leopard, the Felis jubata of naturalists, well known * for the beauty of its shape and spotted skin, and the -treachery and fierceness of its disposition. The animal called leopard (iuipaard) by the Cape Dutch boots, is a species of the panther, and is inferior to the real leopard both in size and beauty. Both of them are dreaded In the mountainous districts on ac count or the ravages which they occasionally commit among the flocks, and on the young cattle and horses in the breeding season. The South African panther is a cowardly ani mal, and, like the hyena, flies from the face of man. The leopard also, though his low, half smothered growl is frequently heard by night, as he prowls like an evil spirit around the cottage of the kraal, will seldom or never attack mankind (children excepted), unless previously assailed or exasperated. When hunted, as he usually is with dogs, he instinctively betakes himself to a tree, when he falls an easy prey to the shot of the huntsnran. The leopard, however, though far inferior in strength and intrepidity to the lion, is yet an exceedingly active and furious animal ; and when driven to extremity, proves himself occa sionally, an antagonist not to be trifled with. The colonists relate many instances of,arduous and even fatal encounters with the hunted leopard. The following is one of these adven tures, which occurred in a frontier district in 1822, as described by one of the two individuals so perilously engaged in it : Two boors returning from hunting the Harte beest (antelope bubalis), fell in with a leopard in a mountain ravine, and immediately gave chase to him. The animal at first endeavoured to escape by clambering up a precipice ; but being hotly pressed, and slightly wounded by a musket-ball, he turned upon his pursuers with that frantic ferocity which on such emergencies he frequently displays, and springing upon the man who had fired at him, tore him from his horse to the ground, biting him at the same time very severely in the shoulder, and tearing his face and arms with his talons. The other hun ter, seeing the danger of his comrade, (he was, if I mistake not, his brother,) sprung from his horse, and attempted to shoot the leopard through the head ; but whether owing to trepi dation, or the fear of wounding his friend, or the sudden motions of the animal, he unfortu nately missed. The leopard, abandoning his prostrate enemy, darted with redoubled fury upon this second antagonist ; and so fierce and sudden was his onset, that before the boor could stab him with his hunting-knife, he had struck him in the eyes with his claws, and tom' the scalp over his fore-. head. In this frightful condition the hunter grappled with the raging beast ; and struggling for life, they rolled together down a steep de clivity. . All this passed so rapidly, that the other boor had scarcely time to recover from the con fusion in which his feline foe had left him, to seize his gun, and rush forward to aid his com rade, when he beheld them rolling together down the steep bank in mortal conflict. In a few mo ments he was at the bottom with them, but too late to save the life of his friend. The leopard had torn open the jugular vein, and so dread fully mangled the throat of the unfortunate man, that his death was inevitable ; and his comrade had only the melancholy satisfaction of com pleting the destruction of the savage beast, already exhausted with several deep wounds in the breast from the desperate knife of the expiring bunt ! , man,--London Weekly Review. FRI:INC/I PAPERS. (From the Moniker of Wednesday, July IS.) (Non-official Part.) " PARIS, JULY 17.—For some time the London journals have been speaking of an arrangement con cluded between the three great maritime Powers of Europe, with a view to the pacification of Greece. The Times has just published this arrangement, with all its clauses, both avowed and secret. We give only conditional credit to the document of the Times. Not that the basis of the news appears to us suspi cious. We are convinced that the Cabinets have desired to terminate this horrible drama from the very day when it began. Whatever be the opinions of statesmen on the rights arising from conquest, and on those whici survive it, they have constantly agreed in the wish for participation. Whatever the treaty may be, we ran therefore affirm that it will be worthy of the august contracting parties—worthy of the important and novel situation in which the poli tical world is placed—worthy of the public law which has prevailed in Europe for these twelve years. But as there is some difference between the spirit of a contract and the text of its articles, so long as these articles are not officially known to us, our respect ourselves for to he public thedisc makes discussion ssi ono f i t our prob duty a,ni ti e t s o con fine . " And, first, the news in the Times is not only probable, we warrant it very true in this particular —that a sacred love of humanity has undoubtedly presided in the contract, and that no thought of aggrandizement has profaned this treaty. We can affirm it of France, in the name of the virtues of its King,—in the name of the heroic patronage given by its Consul to all the unfortunate,—in the name of its flag, which has always been displayed in those ensanguined seas as a signal of safety and pity. We can affirm it of the other Cabinets, in the name of Alexander- ' stationary four years on the banks of the Priith, of Nicholas, prosecuting his diplomatic negotiations in the presence of his impatient army, —of Lord Strangford, stipulating, in return for another intervention, only the right to enlighten the Divan respecting its true interests. " It is very probable, also, that a note drawn up in common will precede all hostile demonstrations, and if recourse should belied to any such, the only object of it will be to separate the combatants,—to hinder a whole people from being struck out of the book of life, which would be like a mutilation of the human race. This order of proceeding, this slow and gradual march, are entirely in the spirit of a policy, the essence of which is preservation,— which does not interfere in fires to direct them - rather to one point than to another, but to 'extin guish them,—which does not favour the weak to - further his vengeance, but to defend him against the vengeance of the strong. When we speak of disinterestedness, we under stand this word in the sense of an aggrandizement of territory or power ; for all personal interest is not. wholly banished from this combination. If it is true that the war of extermination, of which Greece is the theatre, greatly, impedes our commerce in the Levant, and obliges ciiilized Europe to incur bur densome expences of protection and repression, such a motive must have had its influence on the determi natiOn of the three Cabinets; for to whom do they owe their first affections but to the people whoms Providence has entrusted to them .? Here we shall find the explanation of a fact, which seems to have in it some obscurity, : though it is not without pre cedents. According to the Times, only three of the great Allied Powers would intervene in the pacifi cation. This probibly is, because the maritime powers only can take part in a maritime interven tion. We must not be astonished at what we have twice seen. Did not Austria alone take upon it self in 1820 to pacify Naples ? Did not France take upon itself alone in 1823 to pacify Spain ? Both of them acted without the material aid of their allies, but seconded by the labours of their diplomacy. Thus, in the intimate union of the Cabinets, the means of execution. became more simple, and each takes the Post assigned to it by the opportunity of its situation and the nature of its forces. Those who never know how to be contented with present good, will, perhaps, re, quire of the Allied Powers the reason of their delay in assuming this magnanimous attitude; We answer them, that England did not recognize South Ame rica till after having seen it contend for 16 years against the mother country; that France did not make war till 1823 upon the Cortes, which had held a Bourbon captive over since 1820; that in times farther back, France wasted four years to declare in favour of the American insurgents, and that England employed the same number of years in preparing its hostilities against the Revolution in France. To take precipitately a decisive part at the first moment, would be running the risk of strange departures from it (etranges retours). An event is sometimes only a symptom, sometimes a transitory anomaly : a me teor may be extinguished at the moment that it burns. If these motives are good to justify the de lays of u cabinet, how much more those of a confe deration ? It is necessary in the latter case to meet —to concert—to resolve. Each does not always see the same things in the same light, especially when the difficulties are numerous,—when the rea sons for refraining nearly balance these for action. Now, is not this the case with respect to the affair: of Greece ? Has the revolution preserved the same character in its whole course ? Was it the same in 1821, under the Ypsilantes, as in 1827, under George Sessini ? " In all the alternatives of reverse and success, might not the hope be entertained, that each of the belligerent parties would sacrifice something of its pretensions ? Many equally respectable motives clashed with each other in this examination : against. the Turks, the original title, and their strange man ners which break the European unity ; for them, a. possession of three centuries and a half, and the nu merous treaties which sanction it. Against the Greeks the very principle of their new Government; for them, the community of religion, at least as far as concerns the fundamental dogmas, and that compas sion which it is impossible not to feel at the sight oi? their sufferings. Was it not, besides, an absoh it o y indispenable preliminary that the confederation, should disengage itself from every interest pecliiiar to one of its number ? And was it not necessary that the treaty of Akermann should precede that of London? " The supposed arrangement would reconcile every thing, both the rights of the Porte, which at the bottom are right, and those of the Greeks, which are, however, not a chimera. This arrange ment would take from each of the contending parties only a pretension and a danger from the Greeks political independence, and the dangers of a situas tion too elevated for them ;—from the Tu r k s a so vereignty (souverainete), w hich gratifies only hatred; 1 i t c h a ; for supremacy (suzerainete) gives much more grati fication to pride. And how after this bloody di vorce should the ancient relation revive ? How, could two nations which have demanded from each domination, the Porte receives a tribute, which will underother the the last satn (I drop rnuf o; t l h n eir ex b c lo h o an d, ge liv f e or he t i h m e e s fo te rt r h it be guaranteed..

Whatever be the vwe which cease meaning of one of the clauses inserted in the Tinier, they will not be so far freed from the power of their ancient master as not to bear witness to that power in the acts of their new existence. Thus we shall not have rescued unhappy people from the torments. of Hell to plunge them into chaos. " Far from the three Cabinets any ambitious de sign ! We are in a new era :it must not be judged of according to old ideas. A whole world has arisen between the policy of the present times and that of those which are past. Thanks to the permanent alliance of the Governments. Europe is only one country. May it never quit so noble a path ! There alone will it find greatness and security : by that 1:4 •e- and ,Iti od, our mpt and the noct net' la th .., loly itled take the eon.'
