tetra? likewit , e4itt England has adopted a different mode of conduct front that ohs followed in our former revolu. Mo. Great Britain has not only acknowledged King Zonis Philip immediately after his accession to the throne, bat has even used her influence to induce the other Pomo 10 do the same. Generally speaking, all Europe seems NV to understand that her true interests is the re.esta blisktnent of order amongst us and the consolidation of 'system which ptomises so many chances of stability, ►hilst, if we were irritated and pushed on to war, ambled to the critical situation of some Governments, it would tidy provoke revolutions instead of preventing them. (From 9alignani'B Messenyer.) CHAMBER OF PEERS, Ocr. 5. The Duke Ile Broglie rose to present the following 14w project t-- " Art. 1. Any attack by one of the means set forth in ►he Ist article of the law of May 17, 1819, against the Rn) al dignity, the order of eurcession to the throne, or the right which the King derives fro►n the wi'h of the French nation, expressed itt the dettlaration of August '7, 1880, and the Constitutional Charter, the inviolability of his person, or the right* and authority of the Chamber, shall be punished by imprisonment for a term not under three months, and not above five years, and a fine of front 300 to 10,000 franmt. r " Art. 2. The Rd article of the law of March 25, 1822, hand remains repealed." The law was ordered to be printed. The partners of the house of Va,sal and Co. have sent a petition to the'King, through the medium of M. Lafitte, Praying fur 'loan of 30;000,000 upon good securities, but the realization of which may require time. By means, of this succour, the houses which were upheld by M. Vassal, and numerous commercial enterprises, would be able to maintain 'their ground. It has said the Bank, which hes atteeptanees of that house fur more than 2 ,000,000, will not enforce its right rigorously to obtain Payment, but will abstain as far as the interesta with whieh it is entrained will allow. The amount of the failure is variously estitnated, but it is thought to be for shout 6,000,000. A council has been formed to assist the principal partner in his laborious task. ASpanish Junta it said to have been fornted at Bayonne, e ornOosed of I. Sancho and L. Pinto. The refugees con tinue to assemble along the Pytertriees ; they want neither arms nor money. The Spanish Government expect their ►mmediate entrance into the country, and is taking mea sure. to oppose them. A telegraphic despatch from the Prefect of Bayonne, on Sunday last, say", " The garrison of Pampeluna' has sent the following detachments to the various parts of the cordon t.--Te the valley of Beaten, 2bo men ; the Valley of Koneal, 20 ; Ochagurea, 15 0 ; Ronenaux, 300; Burguetta, 300, all infantry, and 400 Royalist volunteers. The whole are under the orders of Brigadier Jtianeto. It 'appears that they are arming the inhabitants, and the troops at Ilastan furnish a post at the pass of lepegney.' The line of demsrcatien between the two kingdoms is studded with posts." By the German Papers received this morning Ive have a sort of explanation of the late riot in Berlin, for the truth or falsehood of which we cannot pretend to vouch. It is, however, a decided ultra production'(ultra almost to absur dity); and, smong other curious points, praises the just government of the beloved and revered King 'of PR USSlA—beloved, we suppose, be cause ihe promised his subjects a Constitution, and fettered because he broke his and tft promise -no...es with the following startling ab surdiVi, "Pitissis s t an d s as a spot o f light in Europe, w hi c h no shadow can overcast !" tl papers contain a letter from the Minister of Foreign Affairs to the Chamber of Comers ,gin the ; Su,) j ect of the new treaties with the Pacha of TRIPOLI and the Bey of TUN IS , by which the cause of humanity is a great gainer, Both t h e p AcH A and the BEY renounce for themselves and their successors the tight of sending out cruisers against any Chris tian Power which, being at war with the Re gency, should on its part also abstain from the exercise of this right against Tripolitan mer chantmen. They abolish in their dominions lhe slavery of the Christians, the tributes, pre tests, or dues, under whatsoever name imposed, On European Governments, and the monopoly of commerce. Moreover, they bind themselves hot only to give to foreign vessels which may be wrecked on the coast of the Regency the ne cessary succour, but also to make good the value 01 the effects which may have been pillaged, and to Pay fines as areparation for the murders which may have been committed on persons belonging to t he crews of those ships. The only matter for surprise is this satisfactory treaty is, not that it i s completed now an d we ll co mpleted, but that it has not been insisted on ages ago, For four hu ndred years and upwards these African bar barians have been the scourge of Christendom, Yet, until the Algerine expedition of Lord Ex• MOUTH, scarce an exertion has been made to suppress their piracies ! The Times Express of this morning contains the welcome intelligence that France is earnest in her desire for peace, and that consequently she disclaims all idea of interference with Fo reign Powers, whom at the same time she will not allow to interfere with her.— In the Chamber of Deputies, M. MOLE, Minister of Foreign Affairs, in answer to a question put by M. ETIENNE, observed— " Europe desires the preservation of peace as sincer ely as w e d o ourse l ves , an d we rece i ve f rom all Europe repeated assurances of this general , wi sh.

THE FUNDS. We have no arrivals this morning, with the exception of the express from Paris, which is of considerable im portance, as it contains the declaration, on the part of the French Government, of the non•interference in the affairs of Belgium, and at the same time gives a hint that they hope no other Powers will meddle in the business, and that all Europe will remain in peace. This information we 'dated three days ago in our City article, that none of the great Powers would interfere in the contest between the Be►gians and Dutch ; if they did, it would be to settle the affairs amicably. The next de claration on the part of the French Ministers is their cause for levying 80,000 men, which see stated yesterday, viz. to t l up the deficiency of the troops sent to Algiers, and the disbanding of the Swiss regiments. It appears by the Dutch accounts, that the Prince of Orange is going to retain possession of Antwerp, which certainly is well calculated on their part, as Antwerp is well fortified, and has a citadel of great strength, and re quires a regular siege to take it, which at present the in surgents cannot undertake. In the meantime, the Dutch can muster a large force under the Prince of Orange, and make continual diversions towards Brussels, which will keep the inhabitants of Brussels in constant alarm and fear. The Express from Paris has not had as yet the effect on the Consol Market as was at first expected, although the French Rentes have come higher l per cent.

ATTEMPTED FRAUD ON THE 13ANE.— This morning an attempt was made to defrand the Bank of England by means of a forged East India document.— It appears that 'this is the 'day on which the East India Compary pays a portion of their men, and a warrant is issued on the Friday morring , payable at the Bank of England, for such purpose. At a mach earlier hour than usual this morning a man presented a warrant at the Bank of England fur 6141. Whether from the fact that the order had come in earlier, or that the clerks of the Bank saw any thing extraordinary in the manner of the indivi dual, some suspicion was attached to the document. The man was ordered to stop a sheet time, and in the mean w hile information was d e s p atched to the East India Hourte, and it was soon afterward" found, by the preteatation of the genuine document, that a forgery had been practised. The individual was immediately taken into custody, and will this afternoon undergo an examination before the LORD MAYOR at the Mangum-house, where some parties connected with the East India Company are in attendance. La3t night, about eleven o'clock, a serious ac cident betel a carman, in the employ of Mr. Canty, of Essex-street, Whiteehapel, who was driving Ida master's cart through Fleet-street, in a state of complete intoxica tion. While seated nn a baiket in his cart, with the reins in his hand, he became suddenly incapable of keeping his hold, and was thrown upon time pavement just at the mime when a hackney-coach was passing, the wheels of which went over his head, which was lacerated terribly. He Was carried to St. Bride's watch house, where Mr. HUTCHINSON, of Farringdon-street, promptly attended and dressed his wounds. Ile appeared much injured. OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.) TRIAL OF CAPTAIN HELSHAM FOR MURDER. The Judges (Mr. Justice BAYLEY and Mr. Justice BosaxQuvr) took their seats in Court precisely At ten o'clock, when Captain Helsham was placed at the bar. The prisoner was dressed in a black frock coat and black trousers ; he is a very good looking nun, and appeared pe► fectly composed. Mr. GURNEY, Mr. CHARLES PHI Lir% and Mr. CLAREQON conducted the prosecution ; Mr. ALLEY, Mr. Ann'Altus, and Mr. BonKtx are the prisoner's Counsel. The witnesses on both sides were ordered to leave the Coot t. Mr. Guaway stated the case for the prosecution. The prisoner (the Learned Counsel said) was a native of Ire land, and an officer in his Majesty's service. Lieutenant Crowther was also an officer in the service of his Alajesty —previous to the melancholy affair which terminated so fatally the prisoner and the deceased were strangers t,l each other. From some cireumstinces that had come to the knowledge of Lieut. Croekher's friends, they had thought it their duty to institute the present prosecution. Mr. Gurney then stated the facts of the ease, as afterwards deposed to by the following witnesses : Wm. Cookson examined by Mr. C. PIMA:APS—I five at Boulogne on my own property. On the Ist of April, 1829, my attraction was attracted to a concourse of people going towards the Column. I saw Cipt. Ile!sham and Mr. Mulony on the ground. I also saw Mr. Grady, Doctor Dunan, anti Lieut. Crowther. There werea number of other persons present. After some time I saw Mr. Maluny beckon to Lieut. Crowther to come tip to him. Mr. C. was then about 100 yards off. Mr. Grady, at this time, was standing at the side of Captain Ilelsham. lam Mr. Malony put a pistol into Lieutenant Crowther's hand, and soon after I beard the pistol go off. I turned my attention to Captain Ilelsham, and addressed him. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—We cannot hear what was said. Witness continued—l observed to a friend of mine, that was present, that Captain Helsham was standing with his arm stretched out. Shortly afterwards the Captain's pistol went off, and Lieutenant Crowther instantly fell. 1 ran towards him, but he was nearly dead ; the ball had entered •the right side of the neck. The neck was exa mined, and it was found the ball had passed right through, I supported Lieutenant Crowther's head until Dr. Duncan came up, and then assisted him to a carriage. I did not see him die; but saw him dead in about half an hour. after he was cart ied from the field. There cats be no doubt of the cause of death. Captain lielsham, after he tired, walked off the ground. I heard him tll his servant to carry his pistols home. I did not ace Lieutenant Crowther take nny part in the transaction until he was beckoned by Mr. Malony. Cross-examined by Mr. Anot.ruus-1 have lived at Boulogne three years. I have 'not seep any other duel there ; I was in the town when the parties Went out ; they were accompanied by a great con course of people. The Column is about one mile and a half from the town. I did not know what was going for ward, but there appeared a general excitement I did not see Lieutenant Crowther give a pistol to Captain Heisham. The parties were on the ground when I got up. I was not near enough to hear whether there were , any words given to regulate the parties firing. I cannot, , therefore, say whether Lieutenant Crowther fired before the words had beer given. I was examined on this tub. ject before the Mayor of Boulogne. Several other people were also examined. Mr. Malony was present at the exa mination. Captain Helabarn was not then in custody. I have heard that he was apprehended afterwards, but do not know it of my own knowledge. _ _ By Mr. Justice BAYLET--1 was about 60 yards from the parties when they fired. I said before the Magistrate that I was 200 yards, but I have since measured the spot, and find it is only 60 yards. There were from twenty to thirty persons on the ground when the duel took place ; it was between ten and eleven o'clock in the morning. Mr. William Hopkins examined by Mr. CLARKSON— I resided at Boulogne in April last year. On the Ist of that month my attention was excited by a crowd on the Calais road, near the Column. My house is near the Co lumn. The last witness was in my company at the time, and we went towards the Column together.—(This wit ness here gave a similar account of what occurred, as had been detailed by the preceding evidence of Mr. Cookson.) Witness continued—There was some time elapsed be tween the firing of Lieut. Crowther's pistol and the firing of Captain Ilelaham's, sufficient to allow me to make an observation to Mr. Cookson ; after Captain Helsham fired, I went towards him, he looked very pale ; and I heard Mr. Grady say to the Captain, " I ant afraid you have killed him." He replied, " Oh, God, I hope not !" I afterwards heard Capt. klelsham say to his servant, " take care of those pistols, I do not recollect any other words being used. Cross-examined by Mr. Bonittn-1 have been present at other duels ; I was notsure when I went to the ground that a duel was to take place. I saw some of the persons that I have named pass in a carriage ; there were two carriages, and several persons on foot going towards the column ; Mr. Grady appeared to me as if he was acting as the friend of Captain Helsham ; I saw the ground mea sured, but I do not recollect by whom ; the person who measured the ground took springing steps, as if for the purpose of making the distance between the parties as long as possible. I do not now recollect the number of steps ; the parties ultimately stood about fifteen pulls asunder, more or lee,; I did not hear any signal given, therefore cannot say whether Lieut. Crowther fired before the word was given, but he raised his arm, and the pistol went off almost immediately, after he hatlrhecemeiv,eittil duty it is l was examined at Boulogne before the Judge d'lnstruction, who is one of the officers of the Court, w to take evidence, and forward to the Attorney-General for him to judge whether there are any grounds for ulterior proceedings being instituted. I was examined upon oath. Mr. Malony was present, but I do not recollect that he was examined. Captain. Brigham, I believe, at this time was at Dunkirk. I was required by the Judge before whom I was examined to state all that I knew shoot the transac tion, which I stated was written down, and I afterwards affixed my signature to it. By a Juror-1 am not a military man. lam a pro. prietor of houses at Boulogne. By Mr. Guaner —I did not see any of Lieutenant Crowther's family present during the examinations at Boulogne. The witnesses were examined separately. By the Jonox—After Lieutenant Crowther came up there was no conversation between him and the prisoner. The other parties, Mr. Grady, Mr. Malony, and Captain Ilelsham, had been on the ground about ten minutes before. Lieutenant Crowther WAS beckoned to come up. By a Juror —Was there sufficient time between the firing of Lieutenant Crowther, and the firing of Captain llelsham, for the parties to have interfered if the prisoner held his pistol unfair ? Witness—No ; unless it bed been done by a call. Mr. Justice Ilaysvr —Then it might have been dnne ? Witness—The parties were at a considerable distance from each other. com T l l n te m p a r t i v so i n l e v r i r aresebaect.ame much affected, and was ae.. Mr. Malony examined by Mr. GURNEY-1 am an officer in the stWDragoon Guards. I was at Boulogne in April last year. I was acquainted with the late Lieutenant Crowther. In the month of March be consulted me re. spectiag something that related to him personally. In consequence of what he said, I went to liab l e Hotel, to meet Mr. Grady. Before Mr. Grady arrived at tlolt's several other persons came, amongst whom were Colonel Conway and Captain Ilelshatn. When Captain Hellbent came, he told me that Lieutenant Crowther was not s tit person for him to apologise tour to fight, as he had been horse-whipped some time back. He could not, therefore., as a gentleman and as officer, consent. I asked him to apologize for making use of such an imputation. I told him that Liestt. Crowther assured the on his honour that it was false. The Captain replied that the assertion of Lieut. Crowther would not be attended to. I understand that Capt. Helsham had made use of this expression to wards I.ieut. Crowther at the time he was a caniitlate to be adtnittA iota a club. It was asked use, in the pri soner's hearing, fur what purpose I carne ; and Captain Helsham said that I had come to deliver a hostile mes sage. I said that I came there as a messenger of peace, which I should be most happy to establish between the par ties, and I said whether I was instructed to delivers hostile message or not, I had not done so, and therefore no per son bad a right to ask me my intention. I renewed my endeavours to effect a reconciliation, and get Captain Hel sham to apologise. I was asked what I wanted, and I replied, an apology, upon which the prisoner started up, and took two struts across the room, and said, " An apo logy, Sir, an apology is nonsense." I then delivered a message that if he would not apologise, Mr. Crowther ex pected he would meet hint in the field. Both Colonel Con. way and Captain Helsham repeated that be should neither meet him nor apologise until he had cleared up his character ; it regarded what Captain Helsham had charged against him. A long conversation ensued between us, whether or not it lay upon Lieutenant Crowther so to do, or whe ther the prisoner ought not to rove the truth of his charge. We could not agree upon the point. I said, if you will not consent either to apologize or fight, you will be obliged to do one or the 'other, and therefore he had better not drive matters to an extremity. Captain Het sham said he was willing to fight me. I replied, I am much obliged to you, but would rather not. The pri soner then said, I give you a warning, that if I do meet Lieutenant Crowther I will make it an affair of business. Air. Grady shortly afterwarela came in; Ido not think that I repeated my request to the prisoner afterwards. Colonel Conway and Captain Ilelshom then left the room. In the discussion that took place Captain flelsham conducted himself very rudely. There was no arrangement made for the next day before Colonel Conway and Captain lielsham left the room ; we could not egret , to any thing. After they left, I and Mr. Grady entered into conversation on the subject. I made proposals Mr. Grady to terminate the business, which he approved of. 1 do not know where Captain Ilelsham was at this time. Mr. Grady left the room, am' in a few minutes returned, when we then made an arrangement that the parties should meet nex , day at eleven o'clock at Napoleon's column. TI next day I accompanied them to the spot at the time ap pointed. I and Lieut. Crowther went together in a car riage. We had been on the ground about half an hour before we stw Capt. Tlelsham and Mr. Grady ; they ar rived in a coach ; thew were other persons in the coach with thAn. There were at least a dozen other persons on horseback and foot. Mr. Grady and 1 eonverseti toeether. Lieut. C►otvther less then at it distance. I_ s.iri win have you brought all there people with yo❑ ? you had better send them away. lie replied that Ctittain eham wished them to be there, or that they wish,* to be there them elves, I do not exactly recollec , which. Mr. Grady and I cuntinued in conversation during which time the prisoner came near to us. Mr. Grady said that Captain Hclshan► would not agree to an► firing except it was separate. Mr. Grady and myself ar ranged the manner in which the duel should be fought; whiht we were making ther►! arrangements the prisoner interfered. fie would be present to hear every thing that passed between us; I repeatedly ,Itjected to it. I objected in the hearing of Captain He!sham, he was then in the ditch, and I observed it was a very unusual thing for the principals to be present when the seconds were loading tt.e pistols—it was contrary to all duelling usage. He said that he "did not care a for the usage he would see the pistols loaded himself." Mr. Grady brought the pistols that were used. I and Mr. Grady arranged the ground that the pat ties should fire, the dis tance was agreed to be twelve paces; Captain Helsham was present at the time it was agreed in what manner the parties should fire. It was agreed that the parties should stand with their pistol arm down by their side, and remain still until Mr. Grady should pronounce the word, " Now, Gentlemen," when these words were pro nounced, the parties were to raise their arms and fire, as near together as possible, and that no second aim should take place. The ground had been pre viously measured by Mr. Grady, be took very long strides, as much as he fairly could. When I objected to the measure of Captain Helshain he wished to quarrel with me. Lieutenant Crowther did not at all interfere in the arrangements, but stood at a distance. I beckoned Lieutmant Crowther to come up, and told him the condi. flans of firing that had been agreed on. Captain llelsham and Lieutenant Crowther were then placed opposite each other at a distance, with their pistol artns down. Mr. Grady said, loud enough for both to hear, " Now, gentle men." Lieutenant Crowther home& tidy dropped his arm with rather a quick motion and fired ; he then lower his arm. Captain Ilelsham did not fire for some time after wards. Not hearing the report of Captain Ilelshatn's pistol immediately after Lieutenant Crowther's, I looked about, and observed the Capt-tin's pistol poin ted towards , . . his opponent in a posture that if he had fired it must have been a foul shot. I observed him lean his hand towards the right, and gradually raise his arm. He did not fire for a few seconds afterwards, until he thought, apparently, that he had covered his man. He was looking along his pistol at the time he tired. Mr. GURNEY—Did it appear to he a deliberate aim? Witness—lt did ;he fired, and Mr. Crowther fell. I went up to him anti found a wound in his neck; the ball had passed through it. Ile died of that wound about twenty minutes afterwards. I knew Captain .141- sham before this transaction. I have heard him say he was an Irishman, and that be was horn at Kilkenny. Cross-examined by Mr. ALLEY.-A remember Colonel Conway before Mr. Grady arrived at Bolt's, requesting me and Captain Helsham to retire to a private loom in the lintel. This was before the prisoner refused to apo'ogise. Captain Helsham said he was wiling to make any apology however ample, providing any explanation could he given of the charge against Lieutenant Crowther. I do not recollect that. he said if an explanation was given and an apoluky was not deemed sufficient, he would meet Lieut. Crowther in the field, and stand his fire without returning it. Colonel Conway did not say it was a pity two young men should fight on such a trifling thing. Ile did not go so far as to say in toy hearing that be would not Puffer the prisoner to fight. Ile said that he did not consider Captain Ileisham called upon to fight, as Mr. Crowther was so unworthy a person that he could not be put upon an equality with the Captain, and therefore that he would not undertake for him to fight. I did not say in answer that, if Le refused to fight, he would be compelled to do so. I did not sity that if he persisted in his refusal the usual means would be resorted to, viz., posting and horsewhipping. I never said anything to that effect. I never used the words " posting or horsewhipping" upon any occasion. I did say, that they must know very well that Mr. Crowther could not submit to the insults that bad been heaped upon him, and that if he (Captain II.) did not apologize, the usual means must be resorted to to make him tight. I cannot positively say, whether it was in consequence of what I said that Captain Ilelsham agreed to fight. I did not hear Mr. Grady ted the prisoner not to mind the in sult. Col. Conway propelled that I should fight Capt. 11. I considered the proposal most absurd. Capt. Ilt'sham, I am positive, said that if he did fight, it should be a mat ter of business. When Mr. Grady was measuring the ground, I said he was giving too great a distance. Mr. Grady replied, that as it was left to him to measure the ground, be would do it after his own mind. The pistols were detonating, with hair-triggers ; they might be used with the hair-trigger or without, just as yon pleased. The hair-trigger was not used. These pistols arc more dangerous than the cotnmon pistol. The pistols brought by Mr. Grady were common pistols. The one used by Lieut. Crowther was with the hair-trigger. Mr. Grady observed that if he was not accustomed to it, it would he better to use a common pistol. Lieut. Crowther's pistol did not go off until after 'tl4: words that had been agreed to be used were given. lam quite sure that I never said that such was the case. I should think there was five seconds elapsed between the firing of Lieut. Crowther's pistol and tke prisoner's. I was about twelve or fifteen paces from Mr. Crowther at the time he fired.. It was my business to see that there was no foul play between the parties. By Mr. ALLEY—As you stood so near the parties at the time, why did you not interfere when you saw the prisoner take aim, and prevent him from firing? Witness—l slid not like to start any ob jection which could be tortured into a charge against my friend. Mr. Au.sv—That reason, as it appears to me, would equally apply, provided the prisoner bad gone up to Lieut Crowther, and deliberately shot him through the head Witnes—That does no't strike me so at all; I think quite different. The witness then underwent a cross examination as to the evidence he gave before the Judge at Boulogne. The prisoner was nut then in custody. A great number of English and military gentlemen were living at Boulogne at the time. It could net have been expected for the prisoner to be received in company, and to hold up his head in the way he had done, if he had refused to accept the challenge. I wrote several letters to the newspapers for publication. I did that with a view to my own justification its the part that I took in the transaction. 1 recommended offering a reward in the Hue and Cry for the apprehension of the prisoner. Mr. Justice Barter---Perhaps, Mr. Malony, you are net aware that a second in a duel is equally guilty with a principal, in point of law....... Witness raid be had been ad mitted es a witness for the Crown, and he was actuated only by a desire to do Ilia duty. Ile was moat anxious for every part of his conduct to be strictly investigated. Dir. Justice • BAYLEY —When you saw the prisoner run hats eye aim% the barrel of the pistol, woe there time for you to have made an objection. Witness—There was, my Lord. Mr. Justice IlAvtitv—And if you had objected, would that have prevented the firing ? Witness— , No; Ido no think it would, toy Lord. By a Juror--What distance was you from Mr. Om n•hen he gave the word that was null for the Aignal to file Witness—lt is extremely difficult to asrettain the exact distance in an open field, it might be 15 or 18 yards, or perhaps not so much. I distinctly heard him give the word before Lieutenant Crowther fired. I have no doubt Mr. Grady was actuated by a wish that firmness should be observed by both parties. The Rev. James Crowther was then called, and was under examination when we went to press. The prisoner, as the trial proceeded, became much id fected• Puma°, SICPT. 26.—The coronation of the Imperial Prince could not takeplece to-day, on amount of the unfa vourable weather.

EDINBURG/I CABINET LIBRARY. sintriunan, The volume before us, which is the first of a new Miscellany, to be published monthly, under the title of the Cabinet Library," contains some interesting, and, we may add, romantic particulars, respecting the Polar regions, the various monsters that inhabit them, the diversity of their seas and continents, and the various expeditions that.from time to time have endea voured to explore them. Among the more en tertaining details, we may single out for especial praise the Editor's sketches of the whale spe cies, and the great Polar white bear--which► last, in point of strength, ferocity, and intelligence, appears to rival, if he do not surpass, the stu pendous African lion. The abstract of the re cent North-west Voyages, under Captain Parry, and other experienced navig►tors, is also de serving of notice. We should not omit to add, that the work is e►nbellished with numerous wood -cuts, of a very superior description.— Altogether, in point of ornament and utility, it is worthy to vie with any of its periodical brethren. It is dedicated to Mr. Barrow, of the Admiralty, an experienced Quarterly Reviewer. HISTORY OF THE 11111LE.—Losnom, 1830 We have here the first volume of a work which is admirably adapted to the wants of the rising generation, and which, in fact, from the very superior style in which it is compiled, and made to form a continuous narrative, will be pe rused with avidity by all classes. It is the His tory of the Bible, forms the second volume of the National Library, and has been compiled by the Rev. Mr. Gleig, who is also the avowed editor of the Miscellany. So far as orthodoxy is concerned, the present History—as far as it has yet proceeded—is immaculate. There is nothing to offend the prejudices of even the moat inveterate high Churchman, nor will the Dis senter find any one chapter, or even passage, at which he may cavil. A spirit of candour and correctness pervades the entire work, which is further set off by the embell►shments of a familiar (but not homely) and colloquial style. If Mr. Gleig finish his History in the same en lightened spirit in which he has commenced it— and a History of the Bible presents no slight dif ficulties to the compiler—he will have conferred & great service on literature.

The laughter loving portion of the public will be delighted to hear that Mr. Tnr>KonotcL Ifoox is about to publish a comic novel to be entitled " Maxwell." Of high life and low life, the world has lately heard enough t while, strange to say, the principal field for eccentricity and hummons character, has been neglocted. It is there fore gratifying to rand that Mr. floox.'s new work is to be a Story of the Middle Risks. Yesterday commenced the laying down of the improved carriage way pavement intended to be generally used in future for the streets of the metropolis. The spot selected for the beginning is St. James's-street, the lower part of which, nearest the Palace, has been *leered of the old paving materials, and ►he new laid down for the space of twenty yards. It consist% of oblong granite stones of equal sires and hewn to such a ninety that when laid to- Retia they form a very level maim , . The intervals are grouted in with a strong cement, which when dry becontei as hard and as durable as the intone itself, and the whole pavement then forms one solid and compact body without the liability of wearing into ruts or suevenness.—the•6- convenience of which has hitherto been so justly. com plained of. The stones shoulder one under the edge of the other, and arse° pitched that any weight' passing over• the curiae, is sustained by the whole body, without the stress being on one particular part, Ile there is a corm portding support from the crown or centre of the road to the extremity of the tides.

It is in the more difti» cult parts of the play that Mite Kittens evinces herreally superior talents. A certain degree of exaltation in 'mil. ment or 'mein*. seems necessary to excite her powers to their true pitch. The scene in which she reproaches her husband with having surrendered her to the guardianship of, the eonspirssors was admirably given. Bat it was in the last ioene-the mad seine—that her power was roost strongly manifested. The vat itty of expression which she displayed in feature, tone, and manner, prevail her to have the true feeling fur her art. To polarity the quick and extensive variety of feeling sad expression which this scene requires is far beyond the reach of any ordinary *Arms, Mice Kaaret.a succeeded in it admirably, and made it one of the most toueliing and effective pictures she has ever exhibited.
