The Society instituted at Paris for the pur- pose of promoting the progress of Geography, held on Friday, the 14th of December, its second General Assembly for the year 1827, under the Presidency of his Excellency Count Chabrol de Crouzol, Minister of Marine and the Colonies. A great number of French and foreign scientific men, and other persons of distinction, were pre sent at this numerous assembly. The PRESIDENT opened the Meeting with the following speech : " GENTLEMEN- , lt was not without impa tience that I awaited this.moment, when I should be allowed to thank you for the honour you have conferred on me, in electing me the President of the Society of Geography. That choice was a too flattering proof of your esteem for me not to hasten to express to you all my gratitude. The goodness of the King has placed me at the head of a department which concurs most powerfully in the progress of Geography, and at all times the Royal Corps of Marine has reckoned among their members, men famed by the labour; which form the object of your excellent institution. I might, no doubt, trace the greatest and most use ful fact of geographical history, by reminding you of the acts of the famous navigators of the four last centuries ; but how often has this hall echoed with the praises due to their incredible perseverance, to their courageous efforts, and the admirable results which the world has obtained ftom them. After them the earth was con quered by.science, but it was not sufficiently ex plored ; and, in order to acquire that knowledge, so diversified in its nature, and the circle of which is so extended, your Society was formed. To attain an end so useful to commerce, to the sciences, and civilization on the one side, you encourage, by the sight of • noble rewarder and particularly by universal respect, learned dr.3d la borious men to meditate in the silence of the _ _ study on those questions, the solution of which is of the greatest importance to the developement of science ; and on the other side, you send into the most distant and least known countries, travellers full of zeal, ardour, and talent, Our market was fairly stocked with all sorts of Grain to•day. Old Wheat is ls. higher. All other sorts remain without ally material alteration from last market-day.

The number of children of the proper age for attending school, estimated at one-eighth ° o f , e the population, pr oportn of scholarsin ust be is about 5 probably ; ,OO kept low N i v in than he oughtisequenee ; and w i e may ofeaclatteinlii ° a shorter conclude period ir therefore that more thanone-half, probably two-thirds of all the children, receive a certain amount of in struction. English exclusively is taught in 500 of the schools ; G ae li c i n 80 ; Gaelic and Eng lish together in 120. From the researches of the Inverness Society in 1822, we find that one half of all she inhabitants can read either in their own language or the English, and the propor tion must be annually increasing. At present the reading population of the Highlands must comprise fully 200,000 persons, of whom pro bably 100,000 read English, though many of them comprehend the sense but imperfectly ; 100,000 more read Gaelic ; and 300,000 un derstand the Gaelic when read to them. Now it is evident that our pains to teach the Highlanders to . read are nuTho segatory, who unles slearn we s upply them wl.l books. ' 0 1 have indeed all the stores English thorough l y , of our literature laid open to them, but what be comes of the large number who know nothing but Gaelic ? There is besides something fal lacious in the knowledge of English supposed to be possessed by the Highlaners. It has been repeatedly observed, that the English learned in a boy's youth fades out of his memory from disuse before he reaches mature age ; anti some who retain as much of the acquired language as enables them to conduct a few limple commer cial transactions at fairs or markets, are almost totally unacquainted with that branch of the vocabul ar y which.relates to morals, arts , sci ence, law, an d gene ral knowledge. Clergymen in the Highlands know well that many of their pa rishioners who can communicate with them in English on some familiar subjects, are quite in , capable of understanding a sermon in that lan- MADRID, DEC. 13.—1 t is said that the Ayuntamiento of Madrid has formed a plan for lighting the capital with hydrogen gas, and that it will, for that purpose, receive tenders for its accomplishment, in order to give the preference to the most advantageous. There itre several mines of coal at a little distance from Madrid, which would furnish gas in abundance, and would give all the coal necessary' to supply the capital with fuel. On Thursday morning the mail coach from Ennis to this city was in imminent danger of being overwhelmed in the flood with which the road all about Clare Castle was inundated.

The state of the parapet and em bankments on that part of the road call loudly for the attention of the Government—L imerick Paper. Wheat. Barley. Oats. Pease.

Cailiaud, Torzec, Marmarica ; and Cyrenaria, by M. Tacho ; the regions bordering on Senegal, by M. Mollieu ; and that mysterious part of Africa, which devours its explorers, by the unfortunate Rouzee and Beaufort, who perished in the flower of their age, the victims of their devotion to the progress of geography. Every day, Gentlemen, your labours give you new claims to the public grati tude ; every clay you render new services to your country ; and by such efforts you associate your selves with the generous thoughts of a monarch who does not confine himself to make his stand ard respected in every sea, but who wishes that the Officers of his Navy should contribute to the utmost extent of their experience and learning to the knowledge of the globe. You dO already in part enjoy the brilliant results of the two expedi tions round the world, ordered, and successively completed since the peace.. The first in the cor vettes Uranie and Physicienne—pne command ed by Captain Freycinet ; the other in the cor. vette Coquille, under Captain Duperrey, both members of your Society. The principal object of the expedition of the Uranie was to make ob servations calculated to determine the figure of the earth and the intensity of the magnetic powers ; and, at the same time, to increase the collections of Natural History, and to add Deis hydrographic drawings to those possessed by the Depot of Charts and Plans of the Navy.—That object has been attained, to the satisfaction of the King, in the space of four years. M. de Frey cinet returned to Havre on the 13th of Novem ber, 1820. On the 22d of August, 1822, M. Duperrey set sail from Toulon. After visiting the Malourine Isles, the coasts of Chili and Peru the dangerous Archipelago, and different other groups of islands in the Pacific Ocean, New Ireland ; the Moluccas, New Holland, and New Zealand, the Archipelago of the Caro linas, Java, and the Islands of France and Bour bon, he returned to Marseilles on the 24th of April, 1825, having performed a voyage of cir cumnavigation which will have eminently contri buted to th© improvement of geography, and the physical and natural sciences. This voyage had not terminated, when, on the 22d of March, 1824, Baron Bouganville, the son of the cele brated navigator of that name, set out from Brest, and arrived at the Isle of Bourbon, on the 19th of May, traversed successively India, the Philli pines, China, Cochin China, the islands of the Sound, New Holland, Chili, and Brazil ; veri fied the positions of a great number of interest ing points ; explored in the sea of China large islands which had not yet been visited, and re turned to Brest on the 23d of June, 1826, with rich collections of different objects of Na tural History, destined for the Museum. While these scientific sailors subjected to their investi gations-the most distant-latitudes, others, no less , skilful, devoted themselves, with equal zeal and devotion, to similar operations in nearer seas, and as it were under our eyes, In 1820, the hydro graphical engineers of the navy terminated, tinder the direction of M.

At this last period Captain Bell began, and finished since then, with the same success, that for the coasts of Corsica which M. Gautier had per formed in the Mediterranean. Rear-Admiral Baron Raussin himself, some months since, pre sented the Society with his magnificent work, en titled, " The Pilot of Brazil ; or, a description of the Coast of South America, from the Isle of o en r T ta 'il l eies c e e i b St. Catherine to that of Marantrao." ex amination, which took place in 1819 and 1820, was preceded, in 1817 and 1818, by that of the Western Coasts of Africa, by the same officer, from Cape Bojador to Mount Sonzos.
