BLACKWELL." The Bill had passed the House of Assembly: A day-school for the education of slaves had been opened at Gienada.. Most of the islands had had an abundance of rain. At Antigua so rapid a succession of rains had not fallen for `many years past, but as regarded this Colony they had produced a very salutary effect. The Houses of Legislature had adjourned there for one month. With the exception of two or threl more clauses of the Slave Laws Consoli dati .n . Bill, little or no business hat' been trans acted. It was reported at St. Vincent's that • Major-General Sir CHARLES PRATT had been appointed to the government of that Colony. No official intimation of this event had, however, leached the Colony, and the information was . looked for with considerable anxiety. The following is from the Times of this morning : " Mr. E. Davenport, at the beginning of the week, sent us a letter, complaining that his speeches were almost always inaccurately reported ; and adding, that we must have for such inaccuracy a bad motive. We referred the letter to our reporters, who positively deny the charge. We did not publish the letter, because we did not suppose the writer intended it for publication ; but we have, since our receipt of it, seen it in the columns of a contemporary jour nal. We have only to say, that the journal which pub lishes the accusation is, as well as every other journal, guilty of the fault with which we are exclusively charged. Mr. E. Davenport had better start a paper of his own. As to his imputation of corrupt motive, it is too absurd to re quire an answer." • `1 'he Hon. Member who is here fairly enough - replied to, favoured us also some time since - with a similar opinion respecting the " motives" of our Morning Contemporaries. We then made him the same answer as is contained in the last sentence of the paragraph we have just quoted. What possible " motive," save that ex cellent one of discretion—can an influential Journal like the Times, have for condensing the lax, wordy redundancies of the Hon. Mem ber for Shaftesbury ? Were these reported at the same length with which (unfortunately for their hearers) they are spoken, we know not who among newspaper readers would have courage or perseverance enough to wade through them. The fact is, Mr. DAVENPORT is es sentially a man of one idea, and when that one idea happens to be a wrong one, we know not upon what principle of common sense or ex pediency our Morning Cotemporaries are bound to give it undue currency.

CITY, T WEL YE 0' CL 0 or. We have hut little to communicate this morning, owing to the non-arrival of mails and ship letters. The last accounts from Buenos Ayres_ state, that M. • • Mandeville, the French Consul there, has written a long letter tothe Government, in which he complains of the ill-treatment to which foreignt.rs, and particularly French men, are constantly exposed in that city. Ile states, that the indignities and injuries to which they and their pro perty are subjected are beyond endurance, and calls on the Government to adopt prompt and effectual measures to prevent their taking place in future. The Government bare promised to do every thing in their power to detect theatithora of the said outrages specified by Mr. Mande ville. LIVERPOOL, JUNE 17.—The Cotton Market has exhi bibited an animated appearance within the last two days. The stock was considerable and the prices were steady. Sales of yesterday were 5,000 bags. Consols opened this morning at the smite price they left off yesterday, 92i 93 for the Account, with scarcely a bargain doing as yet. The speculators are waiting the ar rival of an express from Paris, as, by the last account from the above capital, it was expected that a further im provement would take place in the French Rentes. The report of his Mainty being again much indisposed Las damped the Consul Market. In Foreign Securities there Made or nothing doing at present—prices much the same as yesterday. We have this moment received Buenos Ayres Papers, from the North and South American Coffee-house, to the 25th of March. (From the Paper of the 27th.) We have no particular news to communicate this week from the provinces of the interior, but Saturday last was the focus of reports ; it was said that the Governor of Santa Fe, with his army, was in Catnpagna, intending to act against Cordova, and that the division of General Quiroga's army had repulsed the vanguard of Gan. Paez ; others affirm that the former had been defeated, and had capitulated. It is now, however, positively stated that Colonel Villafane has entered into a composition with Gen. Paez, and that he is to retire with his troops to the province of Rioja ; but the most important intelligence of the week is the proposed departure of the Governor, to have an interview with the Governors of Santa Fe, Cur !Centex, and Entrerios. The folLiwing is part of the decree on the above sub ject :—" Article 1. During the absence of the Governor the Government of the province, in all its branches, shall be delegated to the three Ministers—the Minister of War and Marine, Minister of Finance, and Minister of Foreign Affairs." A treaty offensive and defensive has been concluded be tween Buenos Ayres and the province of Corrientes on the same basis as that of Santa Fe. On the 20th instant a notice was issued, that the mails for Peru and Chili would be made up, and despatched on that day. The above proved most gratifying intelligence after so long an interruption with the interior. Exchange on London, 6d. to ENGLISH Bank Stock, 215 16 India Stock, shut 3 per Cent.

The subject under the consideration Of theii Lordihips was an appeal, which has been part heard, relative to the distribution of the Deccan prize money.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.-(THIS DAY.) • HOUSE OF COMMONS. • The House met at Twelve o'clock this morning. : MADRAS REGISTRAR BILL. - On the SP'E*AiElt taking his plice, Sir JAMES MACINTOSH moved the Order of the Day, for the second reading of the Madras Registrar Bill. ' On the motion' being put, ' Mr. ASTEI..L Moved that Counsel be called in. The motion was agreed to, and Mr. Adam and Mr. S,rjeatt Spankie were accordingly called to the bar of the House. The SPEAKER—Mr. Adam, for whom do you appear?—Mr. Adam intimated that he appeared for the East India Company. To a similar question from the SPEAKER—Mr. Ser jeant Spankie also stated that he appeared for the East India Company. The SPEAKER—The Counsel Will attend whilst the Bill is read a second time. • The Bill was then read a second time; af ter w hi c h, . . Mr. Adam proceeded to address the House. The Learned Counsel contended, that in case that House com pelled the East India Company to make good the defi ciencies occlsioned by the late Registrar of Madras, Mr. Ricketts, which amounted to 50,0001., it would he sanc tioning as act of the greatest injustice, inasmuch as it would be obliging the Company to appropriate that money in their hands which ought to be applied to other purposes. Mr. Ricketts, who had been appointed to the post of Re gistrar of Madras some years, had, in the exercise of the duties of that office, come into possession of considerable property, arising from the estates of deceased persons. The Learned Counsel then went into a detail of the duties of the office. Mr. Sergeant Spankie followed on the same side. Sir JAMES MACINTOSH moved that the Bill be committed, and went into a general outline of its contents, contending that the State was morally anl legally bound to make compensation to the petitioners, and that it was of the utmost importance to the due administration of justice in India, that this question should be fully considered. (LEFT SPEAKING.) LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. COMMITTAL FOR. CONTEMPT. A poor decrepid old man, of the name of Lye, living at Northallerton, was brought up this morning in custody, for the purpose of being turned over to the Fleet for con. tempt, in not putting in his answer to the plaintiff's bill. Mr. KINDERSLEY, who appeared as Counsel for the plaintiff, stated that the prisoner had a very remote inte rest in time property in question, and it was for his own benefit that he should put in his answer. The plaintiffs had offered to have an answer drawn and prepared at their own expence, and every means had been resorted to to in duce the prisoner to put it in ; but, from some cause or other, he had declined doing so. The present proceeding had therefore become necessary, the obstinacy of the pri soner putting an entire stop to the proceedings. The VICE-CHANCELLOR. observed, that it was clear the law on this subject required revision. A scene such as the present ought not to take place in Court. Mr. KINDERSLEY said he would converse with the pri soner in private, and represent to him the consequences of his obstinacy; after which, with the permission of the Court, he would mention the matter again. The prisoner was then ordered to be brought up again on Monday. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. EX..PA RTE.RAINER V. THE CORPORATION OF RYE, Mr. GunasErmoved for a rule to skew cause whya nton•• damus should not issue, calling upon the Mayor and Jurata of the Corporation of Rye to summonq a general assembly, for the purpose of admitting Rainer to the freedom of that ancient port. The present application was made on behalf of a gentleman who was a rate payer and resident in Rye, and therefore according to a recent decision of a Commit tee of the House of Commoas (appointed to try the merits of a contested election) was entitled to be admitted a free man, that Committee coming to a resolution that every inhabitant of Rye, paying scot and lot, was entitled to demand his freedom. Mr. Justice BAILEY-D 3 your affidavits swear that the Corporation are bound to admit a!1 persons paying scot and lot ? Mr. GURNEY said they did not state that fact. Mr. Justice BAILEY - - rou had better get them amended, and then you can make another application to the Court. Rule refused. THE ICING V. NICHOL. This was an indictment against the defendant for perjury : it was tried at the last Spring Assizes, and a ver dict of guilty returned. The present application was to reverse that judgment. It appeared that the defendant had been arrested by a Sheriff's officer, and in an action that was afterwards tried he swore that officer, at the time of making the caption, clasped him round the body with his arms. This was the assignment of perjury on which the indictment was founded. The COURT, after bearing a long argument, were of opinion that there was not sufficient evidence to support the conviction, and therefore ordered the judgment to be reversed. Lord Tenterden rose at eleven o'clock, to attend a meeting of the Lords of the Privy Council. The Court afterwards proceeded with the Crown Paper. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. SHEEN V. GARRETT. An action bad been brought in this case founded on a judgment, and the defendant, who, it appeared, had been a bankrupt previously to the cause of action, had put in three separate pleas, against the first of which a demurrer had been entered. This morning Mr. Serjeant LUDLOW was beard in sup port of the demurrer. The Learned Counsel maintained that according to tht 126th clause of the 6th Geo. IV. which slightly varied from the sth Geo. 11., the defendant was hound in his plea distinctly to aver that the cause of action had accrued before the bankruptcy ; and that consequently the general terms in which the present defendant's plea was worded, rendered that plea altogether insufficient, regarded either in reference to the statute or the common law. He, (the Learned Counsel) believed there was not a tingle instance in the reports in which a plea framed like the present bad been admitted in any Court; and it could not be supposed that the defendant Was ignorant of the proper course, seeing that the subsequent pleas were perfectly conformal le to the usual mode of proceeding in similar cares. The Statute to which he had alluded, enacted, that every plea of a like kind, should expressly state that the cause of action had accrued previously to the bankruptcy, and also to conclude with another plea. It was not eligible for any one to make a plea partly in conformity with the enactment of the Statute, and partly to the Common Law. Mr. Serjeant LAWES, on the other side, contended that the Statute did not require any particular form of words. The difference between the original and the modern Statute was, that the former made it compulsory on the part of the person making a similar plea to state that the cause of action had accrued before the bankruptcy, and the latter left it to the choice of the party—in the first instance the word used was " shall," in the other " may." Mr. Justice PARKE wished to know if the plea was in tended as a general or a special one. Mr. Serjeant LAWES said it was a general plea, but contended that the Statute did not require any particular form of wording it. Mr. Justice i'anicE—ltut it was incumbent on you to state that the cause of the action occurred before the bankruptcy. Mr. Sergeant LAVES submitted that the defend,nt had substantially pleaded in accordance with the Statute, in asmuch as he stated that the judgment was previous to the bankruptcy, and the judgment was, to all intents and purposes, the cause of action. The 6URT was of opinion that the plea was not good, and therefore that the denim rer was, inasmuch as the de fendant had not used the words of the Statute, but much more than was required, and that therefore the plea was to be regarded either as a general or special one. Judgment fur the plaintiff FINE ARTs.—We have just seen a Litho graphic View of Westminster Abbey, and that unsightly edifice which screens one of the finest portions of it from the public eye—St. Margaret's Church. The sketch is by Mr. O'Cormort, and is intended as the first of a series. It possesses both elegance and correctness to recommend it. THE MARKETS_--- . (THIS DAY). COVENT-GARDEN.MARKET.

SURREY THEATRE. S:nce the return of our favourite T. P. Cooicr, Black Eyed Susan has been revived at the Surrey, and was last night played for the 133 d time. Altogether the piece went off exceedingly well. The fist Art, which was wont to he dull and tedious, pleased us much better than it did during the representations of last season. Though we have several times witnessed CooKE's admirable perform ance of William, we never saw him to greater advantage in the part than on last night. Often as he has played it, and we should have thought him almost tired of the repe tition, lie still infuses into the character the freshness and vigour of his first performances. It is as strongly distin guished as ever by those simple, yet true and powerful, touches of nature, by those bursts of deep pathos, and in descrihal•de intensity of feeling which so distinguish the acting of Alre C.OOKE, and which render his British sea men among the most delightful, finished, and often affecting performances on our stage. Last night we saw several around us shedding tears—the most unequivocal proof of the actor's talents. It would be unkind to omit the men tion of Aliss SCOTT, who looked exceedingly well as Susan, and really played the part with great simplicity and effect Lord and Lady HEADLY are expected in Kerry, and will occupy their new splendid mansion on the Lacs of Killarney.—Dublin Morning Register. - MISS KEMBLE.—MiSS KEMBLE, as we expected, has been highly successful at Edinburgh. Her Juliet appears to have given the greatest satisfaction. A work, entitled " Norrington ; or, the Me moirs of a Peer," will shortly' make its appearance, in which circumstances are introduced which have actually taken place, and many characters, knowa both here and in the metropolis of a sister isle, make a prominent ap pearance.

THE BITER BITTEN.—Last week a poor lad, an itinerant vender of laces, braces, Rm., was so per severingly labouring in his vocation in the streets of Lin coln, as to incur the displeasure of a man in office, who determined to put an end to Isis troublesome importuni ties. For this purpose he purchased a shilling's worth of his braces, and immediately demanded ti - .e poor trader's licence. To his great surprise the lad was prepared for him. The man in authority, who was prepared to punish, was chagrined at the disappointment, anti his braces being no onger of use to him, he offered to re-sell them at a trifling reduction. The ready-witted dealer made the purchase, and hastened to a city Magistrate, be fore whom he lodg e d an information against his customer, for hawking without a licence. The little officer was con victed in the penalty of 10/., and was hearti:y laughed at into the bargain; and the informer, instead of being re garded with the feeling commonly bestowed on the frater nity, was congratulated on his good f or t une i n poc k et i ng half the penalty.... Oxford Journal, LITERATURE. :t ADVENTURES OF ARISTON.—LoNnox, 1830. A very promising little tale, after the manner of the travels of Anac•harsis. The author is a young Etonian, only 15 years of age, by name Percy Severn ! He has here' shown consider able reading for his age. Alistun will doubtless amuse his young Etonian cotemporaries. THE GARLAND.—LosnoN, 1830. This is a very agreeable collection of Poems, from the pen of Mr. H. Brandeth, author of " Field Flowers." The volume has been pub lished in the cause of charity, for the benefit of the Spanish and Italian Refugees; and on this account, therefore, deserves recommendation.— But besides this, it has other claims on public favour : it is an intelligent and elegant little vo lume, full of feeling and fancy. The subjoined lines, which we annex as a sample of its merits, are terse and vigorous : THE DEATH SONG OF KORNER. On to the fight, proud spirits on, 'Tis Lfitzau's banner wares? Is freedom's torch for ever gone, Is tie a land of slaves ? Shall we obey a Foreign Lord ; To tyrants bend the knee? Forbid it Liitzau's, Korner's sword, Forbid it, Liberty! By thee, thou glorious Sun, I swear, By Him who gave thee birth ; By all a warrior hopes to share In Heaven, e'en as on earth ; By all that's past, by all that is, I swear, or may yet be, No peace of mind shall e'er be his Who hails not Liberty. Throbs there one coward bosom here Where caves and rocks surround? Hush ! lest some mountain-echo near Receive th' accursed sound. For if there be a sight, a word, That mountain-maid should fly, 'Tis when the coward sheaths his sword, Nor strikes for Lberty. Then, father, by thine honoui'd name, Withhold not Freedom's spear; Then, mother, by thy son's fair fame, Oh ! weep not o'er my bier. And thou, the sister of my love, Check thou the rising sigh ; For live they not, in realms above, Who die fur Liberty ? Thou too—but hark! what hear I now? 'Tis hostile bands that clash ; Down from the mountain's misty brow Gaul's eagle(' banners dash. Well—band and banner, let them came; Who fears their eagle cry? Yon torrent-tide shall be their tomb Who war 'gainst Liberty. Then to the fight, prowl spirit, on, 'Tie Liazates banner waves; Is freedom's torch for ever gene, Is this a land of slaves? But ha !—'tis o'er—that winged hall Yet one shout ere I die, . One shout befitting warrior's fall— Liitzau and Liberty. FOREIGN QUARTERLY REVIEW, No. XL LONDON, 1830. The varied ability with which, from its com mencement up to the present time, .this work has been conducted—the range of information—of thought—of sentiment that it has uniformly dis_ played, entitles it to the highest praise from the lovers of genuine Lterature. The Editor is ma nifestly a man of very general research, and that not in the common and confined acceptation of the word, but in its most comprehensive mean ing. His present number is admirable. The opening article on " Dminonology and Witch craft" alone would redeem it, were there not another readable paper in the number. We know not who may be the author of this very clever, amusing, and intelligent essay, its subject would seem to point out Sir W. Scott, i f so, it adds a fresh lustre even to his spendid reputation. That it will be generally read we have no doubt, and that it will be generally admired we have as little. Of the remaining articles, our necessarily limited columns merely allow us to state that they each furnish their quantum of entertain ment, and of what is better still, of instruction. That on " Caillie's Travels into the Interior of Africa" discusses the subject in a very rational, temperate, and conclusive spirit. The French traveller is just rated at his proper worth ; nei ther unduly praised on the one hand, nor unduly depreciated on the other. The following is an extract from the masterly treatise on Deemono logy and Witchcraft, to which we have before alluded From the commencement of the Records of the Scot. tish Justiciary Court, down to the reign of Mary, no trial properly for witchcraft appears on the record. For th nigh in the case of the unfortunate Countess of Glammie, executed in 1536, during the reign of James V., on an accusation of treasonably conspiring the King's death by poison, some hints of sorcery are thrown into the dittay, probably with the view of exciting a popular prejudice against one whose personal [panty and high spirit rendered her a fa vourite with the people, it is obvious that nothing was really rested on this charge. But with the introduction of the Reformation novus rerum naseitur ordo.' Far from divesting themselves of the dark and bloody supersti ions which Innocent's bull had systematized and propa gated, the German reformers had preserved this, while they demolished every other idol, and moving In dismal dance around the furnace blue,' had made even children piss through the fire to Moloch. Their Scottish brethren, adopting implicitly the creed of their. Continental prototypes, transplanted to our own country, a soil unfortunately but too will. prepared for suet. a seed, the whole doctrine of Satan's visible agency on earth, with all the grotesque horrors of his commerce with mankind. The aid of the sword of justice was imme diately found to be indispensable to the weapons of the spirit; and the verse of Moses which declares that a witch shall not be suffered to live, was forthwith made the ground-work of the Act 73 of the ninth Parliament of Queen Mart•, which enacted the punishment of death against witches or consulters with witches. " The consequences of this authoritative recognition of the creed of witchcraft became immediately obvious with the reign of James which followed. Witchcraft became the all-engrossing topic of the day, and the ordinary accu sation resorted to whenever it was the object of one indi vidual to ruin another, just as certain other offences were during the reign of Justinian, and during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries in It dy. In Scotland the evil was not less busy in high places, than among the humbler beings, who had generally been professors of the art of magic. A sort of relation of clientage seems to have been established between the operative performers, and those noble patrons (chiefly, we regret to say, of the fair sex) by whom their set vices were put in requisition. The Lady Buccleugh, of Branxbohn Hall, whose spells have furnished our own Northern Wizard with some of his most striking pictures; the Countess of Athol, the Countess of Huntly, the wife of the Chancellor Arran, the Lady Ker, wife of James, Master of Requests, the Countess of Lo thian, the Countess of Angus (more fortunate in her gene ration than her grandmother Lady Glammis), were all, if we ate to believe the scandal of Scotstarvet, either pro tectors of witches or themselves dabblers in the art. Even Knox himself did not escape the accusation of witch craft; the power and energy of mind with which Provi dence had gifted him, the enemies of the Reformation at tributed to a darker source. He was accused of having attempted ti raise some sanctes' in the churchyard of St. Andrew's, but in the course of this resuscitation upstarted the devil himself, having a huge pair of horns on his head, at which terrible sight Knox's secretary became mad with rear, and shortly after died. Nay, to such a height had the Mania gone, thit Sent; of Scotitarvet, mentions that. Sir Lewis Rallantyne,; Lord Ju , tiee Clerk of Scotland, by curiosity- dealt with a 'warlock sailed • Richard Gra hame' (the same person whu figures in the trial of AlisOn Balfour, as a confederate of Bothwell's) raise the devil, who Laving raised Lim in his own yard, in - the Canon e;ate, he was thereby so terrified that be took sickness and thereof died.' This was a 'staggering state of Scots statesmen' indeed, when even the Supreme Criminal Judge of Scotland was thus at the head of the delinquents." THE KING'S HEALTH. (From the Court Circular.) The Duke of CLARENCE spent three hors in company with his MAJESTY on Thursday afternoon. His Royal Highness afterwards returned to his residence in Bushy Park. Both the Physicians remained in attendance on his MAJESTY yesterday. The following was the Bulletin cf yesterday : " Windsor Cagle, June 18. " The KING slept at intervals during the night. " In other respects his MAJESTY remains in the same state. (Signed) " HENRY HALFORD. " MATTHEW J. TIERNEY." At the King's Palace, St. James's, the Bulletin was shown to the Earl of WA 'swim( (Lord) and Mr. HOPE (Groom) in Waiting. Among those who came personally to learn the state of his MAJESTY were M.

Tile Duke of GLOUCESTER. visited Prince FREDERICK of Prussia, yesterday. The Prince entertained the Prus sian Minister and a select party to dinner at the residence of the Duke and Duchess of CUMBERLAND, iu the King's Palace, St. James's. In the evening the Prince joined the grand evening Fifty at the Marchioness of STArroftes, at Stafford-house. The Duke of WEr.trscron gave his annual entertain• ment at Apsley House, yesterday evening, in honour of the Battle of Waterloo, to the officers of the Staff engaged in that conflict. The services of plate and china presented to his Grace by different Sovereigns of Europe were used on this occasion. E:u•l BATEIUILST, the Secretary to the War Department at the time the battle was fought, was present to meet the party. The Band of the Grenadier Regiment of Foot Guards was in attendance during the evening, and played several pieces for the gratification of the party. (From the Times.) Notwithstanding the apparently favourable language of the Bulletins, the private accounts from Windsor afford little hope of the recovery of the Royal patient. (From the London Medical Gazette of Junel9.) About eight or ten days ago, a very important change began to m mifest itself in his MAJESTY'S symptoms; the diuretics, which had so long been inert, at length came into full operation, in consequence of which the dropsical effu sion rapidly diminished, and the respiration became pro portionately improved. This event, which we not unfre quently witness in such cases, after the most active remedies have for weeks seemed altogether inefficient, has excited so much astonishment in the public mind, that a variety 01 absurd and contradic•ory explanations have been offered to account for it. - One is, that an abscess hid burst in the chest and the matter been expectorated; another, that his MA JESTY never had dropsy at all; and a third, that the relief had been produced by a surgical operation, " an incision in the chest, ha the region of the heart," by which the water was removed. None of these rumours are founded in fact, and the circumstance which we have above mentioned renders the case sufficiently intelligible without them. The opera tion of puncturing the chest is one occasionally performed for the evacuation of fluid within the chest, and which has recently been practised at several of the London hospital!. We mention this, because it must serve to convince those who have suggested this measure to his MAJESTY'S attend ants that the idea must have been famidar to their mind. , , and would, no doubt, have been adopted, had the nature of the case rendered it advis able. It is very seldom, how ever, that in cases of dropsy such an expedient can be ad missible. Indeed it is only where there is a circumscribed collection cf fluid, unattended with organic disease, that any encouragement is held out for its performance. In a case of this kind, which we attended a few weeks ago with Mr. LAWRENCE, a collection of fluid within the chest was evicietted by puncture, and the gentleman speedily reco vered ; but some idea of the general result of this opera tion, if adopted at all indiscritninat,ly, may be formed from the fact, that in the practice of one of the most expe rienced physicians in London it has succeeded once only out of twelve times. It is curious that it does not strike those who inundate the Palace with proposals for his MAJESTY'S relief, that their suggestions proceed upon the improbable supposi tion that they who do not know the exact condition of the Roy,l Patient should be better able to minister to his dis ease than the experienced and skilful men who are con stantly with him. Nay, some have insinuated that the nature of the disease itself had been alto : teethe'. mistaken; funding this imputation on the very extraordinary grounds of his MAJESTY having obtained so much relief, when all hope seemed to be nearly at an end ;—bat they forget that, by how much the more unexpected the fa vourable change, by so much the more does it show the excellence of the treatment ; for a single files step in at: individual labouring under the symptoms which his MA JESTY is acknowledged to have had, could scat cely have failed to prove fatal. But it has very naturally been inquired why the Physi cians have not given a specific name to his MAJESTY', complaint—why they have not spoken in language more familiar to the public ear? Let it be I . lnernbered, how ever, that they are not the only parties concerned, and there may exist obstacles to more explicit communications, such as they are unable to overcome. The confidence which, even in priva'e life, professional men are accus tomed to hold sacred, may here be strengthened by express declaration of the Royal will. Nor can those who regard the circumstance we have just hinted at with an imp trtial eye, find any"diffieulty is, accounting for the absence of more detailed information in the Bulletins, without plating either a disregard of public opinion, or any other dereliction of their great and most responsible duty, to those talented and honourable men, to whom, and to whom alone, by his own special desire, the care of the SovnatiGN has only on this occasion been confided. With regard to the prospects of the future, held out by the change in the symptoms which we have above de scribed, we lament to sly, that the mere disappearance of the effusion does not by any means justify the san guine hopes which some have entertained ;—the evacua tion of the fluid can only give temporary relief, while the organic cause which produc e d it rem a i ns b e hi n d. We are underuder the painful necessity, too, of contradicting the state ments about his MAJESTY'S returning appetite and im proving strength ; though they have been current in the highest circles, and given on the authority or those wh o might be supposed to be well informed, yet are these re parts lamentably exaggerated ; and so far from being able to walk across his room, or to breakfast on 6 ' broiled chicken," we know that two days ago his MAJE S TY con tinued in the mos t urgen t s t a t .a of debility', and that hi , susOnance almost exclusively consisted of clove-tea, and candle with a little brandy. Tilt, thciefore, there be more decided renovation of the vital powers than has yet been manifested, we greatly fear that the confident anti cipations of the KING'S permanent te,!overy, which are in circulation, must be looked upon as indicating the ardent wishes of his 'movie rather than the reasonable hopes of his attendants. (From the Lancet.) When we first noticed these Bulletins in this Journal, it 'vas St tted that we wual not he so unjust as to decide upon the medical acquirements of their authors, merely from the terms in which they were written. We must say, however, that if ada.,-.ted as guides whereby to de termine, either professional or general attainments, they indicate anything but clearness of intellect. We must therefore give the liege! Doctors all the benefit they ca n derive from " invisible" influence, in order to protect than froin the charge of gross ignorance. If unhappily, t my are confused and oppressed I,y a weight of exactiims and obligations arising fl out various quarters, why d, they not condescend to employ the elm, a n d discriminating lmenage of the Noble Premier, who seaks much more .renly, and, as circumstances tend to prove, with a far more accurate knowledge of the power of the Kma's eoustitution, - than it is the good fortune of the Bulletin writers to possess. Extraordinary as it may 'appear, when, on several occasions, the. Physicians have betrayed ,h e greatest alarm for the safety of the ROyal Patient, the Noble Duke has calmed their apprehensions, by assurine: them, with his characteristic firmness, that there existed much vitality and strength of system, and that he could per ceive no immediate cau.e of danger; hut when, at the be ginning of the last week, the Noble Duke was summoned in such extreme haste to the Palace, about the time when the attendance of the Royal "Undertakers" was demanded, his Grace expressed much surprise at the "embarrass ment and alarm exhibited by the medical attendants, and declared that lie eould perceive no serious alteration in his MAJESTY'S condition. The subsequent amendment of the Kiew goes strongly to establish the Noble Duke's medical discrimination. It seems, indeed, to be an universally conceded point that his filastsTr's physicians have alto ;ether mistaken the complaint of their Royal Master; or that, from the beginning, they have been completely waffled in forming a diagnosis, so that their scientific atet " invisible" deliberations have not yet given birth to a (I sided opinion. HIPPOCRATES and other sages have said, that a disease, when it is known, is half cured, because a correct diagnosis, with ordinary prattitioners, leads to a safe and scientific method of treatment: But Royal Physi cians are privileged mortals; they reject the common light* of their brethren, prefer benighted Movements, aad seem to throw themselves altogether upon the doctrine of chances ; and, in conformity with the syitem, it was .deemed expedient, we presume, that the Bulletin should be signed !,y a physicicn who did not see his patient. By the way, anxious to keep within the limits of our information, we stated on a former occasion that Sir 11ATTWIW TIERNEY had net been consulted by the KIXG during a period of twelve clip. This intelligence, as might naturally be ex pected, excited the utmost astonishment in the minds of those persons who had been accustomed to look upon the Bulletins as the only source whence correct information on the subject of his MAJESTY'S disease was to be obtained. We now positively assert, upon the best authority, that Sir MATTHEW signed the Bulletins during a period of at least seventeen days, without having been consulted by the Royal Sufferer. It is, indeed, asserted that the presence of the Worthy Knight appeared to produce so much irritation end distress in the bosom of his Masityrr, that it was thought prudent to request him to withdraw, and he thus signed the Bulletins without examining the subject of them, tru•ting to chance and " invisible" influence for their ac curacy. The three " Sirs" are said to have acted towards each other with great delicacy and kindness on this mo mentous and perilous occasion. Various reasons hare be' n alleged for his MAJESTY'S displeasure, but the repo' t of its having been caused by the flippancy of tongue often no ticed in a certain lady is not true. --- ' III4OI NIIIIIIMIP*4 UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.
