All individuals are ordered to obey with out restriction the injunctions el o the patrols and of the patriots who are ordered to support them. "2. All assemblages, of more than four persons, in the evening,• are prohibited, and the arrest of all infringing this will take place. " 3. Parents and masters of workmen ought, on their own, responsibility, to keep in their houses their children or workmen." This ordinance le signed by the President of the Court and of the Police. The rumour of a change in the French Ministry gains ground daily. The Paris Papers are filled with reports and speculations which resolve the matter almost to a certainty. A dissolution of the Chambers will also it is understood take place. The same Jour nals contain many contradictory accounts re specting the state of affairs at Brussels. The Memorial Bordelais announces great changes in the Spanish Cabinet, but the only beneficial change that can be made in that Mi nistry is the abdication of FERDINAND. In the number of the Westminster Review, just published, appears an able article on the late French revolution, in which its probable effects on the future destinies of civilized Europe are speculated on with considerable sagacity. The writer, after proposing the question, " what has France got by her change of dynasty ?" and discussing it in a style and spirit that every reader of the Westminster will anticipate, proceeds to consider the advantages that will accrue to Eng land from the dethronement of a despot, and the accession of a Liberal Monarch to the Throne of France. " What are the results," he asks, " to Great Britain ? These ; that fifty years of the labour of bad governors to bury and depress the principles of our own revolution have been swept away at a blow ; and we, the friends of that revolution, and of all revolutions that the defence of civil liberty makes ne cessary, ate uppermost. The men who have overwhelmed us with debt, to pay for helping despotism in all corners of the earth ; the men who made peace only to give us the Corn Laws and the Six Acts, and bestowed on us the last twigs of that birch within twenty-four hours of the deliverance of Paris—all, these are just now rolling in the gulph like their prototypes of poetry." . This is strongly and correctly put as regards England, while with respect to the Continent, the impulse there given to the cause of liberty, by the late proceedings in Paris, is equally decided. These have taught every nation throughout Europe the valuable moral lesson, that it pos sesses within itself the power of achieving its own emancipation, and that to be free, it has only to desire it. Nor has this lesson been thrown away. Kingdoms are not like school boys, who get their task by rote one day, only to consign it to oblivion , the. next. Europe is now to a man awake. Those States which are already free (and how few are in this condition !) are jealous of any encroachments on their pri vileges on the score of "political expediency," or " the necessity of the times ;" and those which are not, are straining every nerve to become so. Spain is on the move— and so, we hope, is FERDINAND—PortugaI is slowly, but not less surely, preparing the means necessary to work out her salvation ; Naples is as volcanic as its own Vesuvius ; Italy from North to South is fevered to the core ; Poland is bethinking her of Kosc wsKO and the glories of the SOBIESKI ; and even among the Russian wastes, the peasant is beginning, for the first time, to feel that he is a man, not thing—a sentient being, not an automaton in creation. Can this universal flame be quenched ? Can the human mind, having once attained the ele vation requisite to enable it to assert its own proper dignity, be again flung back to the slough whence it has been so long toiling to escape ? Never The spirit of freedom every where abroad, every where active, no longer a feeble dwarf, but a full-grown giant, will effectually prevent any such retrograde motion ; for just in proportion as her figure expands on the horizon, bigotry and despotism sink below it, as the foul dreams of night fly before the rising sun. Mankind, moreover, have at length found out that the world was made for the many not the few; that thrones are held in trust, not for families but nations ; and that such being the fact, the sooner it is acted on the better. Considerable dissatisfltetion is said to prevail among the medical profession at the state of the law relative to the study of anatomy and practice of dissection, and a meeting is spoken of as likely to take place for the purpose of preparing a declaration or petition to Parliament on the subject. Our medical jurisprudence certainly appears both vague and contradictory ;—by the regula tions of the College of Surgeons, and also of the College of Physicians, a student, in order to be admitted, must show, not only that be has studied anatomy, but practised dissection,—by law it is a misdemeanour to have possession of a body for that purpose,—and by law a surgical practitioner is liable to damages for any injury occasioned by ignorance or want of skill ;—thus the law, which awards a punishment against ignorance, imposes impediments in the way of attaining proficiency, and fearful to regulate, stoops to connive at, ta practice, which it has never been, and might not to be able to suppress. Is not the practice of dissection indispensable for the benefit of the living ? Is it any injury to the dead? Are we not indebted to it for all that is known in the important science of anatomy, which is linked with every branch of medical science ? And will it not,—ought it not to be practised for the benefit of our children, and future generations? We believe the only subjects that can be legally anatomized are criminals executed for murder, whi..Th happily for society, if not for the purposes of science, affords but very few sub jects; but is it becoming the dignity of the law, after inflicting the penalty of death, to hover vindictively over the lifeless remaitis of its victim, even in the case of murder ? And does not such a course, while it detracts from its own dig nity, tend to excite prejudice against dissection, and by so doing disparage the profession for per forming what, dispassionately considered, can only be regarded as a duty ? Among many recent modifications of the law, the House of Commons sent a Bill to the Lords, repealing this provision, but the clause was struck out by the Upper House, though three nominees in the Lower had acquiesced in passing it ; we trust, however, the subject will shortly be submitted for re-consideration, and with a different result. It is said the profession intend to decline anatomizing the bodies of criminals who have suffered the last penalty of the law ; we know of no law that can compel them to perform that office.

LITERATURE. FRANCE IN 1829-30. BY LADY MORGAN. 2 VOLS.--LONDON, 1830. Lady Morgan has as usual made an enter taining book out of a subject by no means pro mising, either in point of novelty or interest. Of France, up to the 24th of last July, we have most of us a tolerably distinct notion ; it is of France, as it will henceforth flourish—Of re generated France, freed from ever from the vilest of all vile Governments, and consequently changed Considerably for the better as a nation, that the public will be anxious to read. Of this France, Lady Morgan, we hope, will one day be tempted to give us an account ; for so keen an observer of national manners, habits, and so forth, and so attentive a searcher into character, the subject will teem with interest, especially as it will have the charm of comparative novelty to recommend it. But in our anxiety to become acquainted with future France, we must not forget the past, which Lady Morgan, in the volumes before us, has made to appear in a very enviable and captivating shape. Her sketches of character, place, and incident, which arc numerous, are full of freshness and reality, and have been evidently written down on the impulse of the moment. The most in teresting chapter in the work is beyond all com parison, the one which contains the biographical sketch of the celebrated veteran republican La fayette, who, from the concurrent testimony of all parties, friends as well as foes---if such a man can have a foe—comes as near to our old heroic recollections of the patriotic character as it flou rished in the young days.of Greece and Rome, as the imperfect limits of human nature will permit. Next in . interest to this chapter, which every one will read and admire, is the postscript, which contains a rapid and glowing description • of the three days' fighting at Paris. Lady Morgan has penned this in quite a CO?i amore spirit, and infused much of her own enthusiastic sanguine temperament into it. Of Sir •C. Morgan's share in the work we really cannot say much. HiS metaphysics are awful. inflictions, and not to be contemplated without a shudder. As for reading them, it is impossible. The article on the Public Journals of France c o o n n e v , e . y w s h o s o b m y 1 : b le u : o u tn n o t t s 4 s a u d in s c u ien t g I I fi e a n 11 l access into society, should have made himself more in timately acquainted with the state of the Parisian t a e l l r l e s ad t y h e k n r o e v a v d s. er 8 1i :i tt :l e , beyondtP r s e p s i th wA c i s itt e 'tpr d tel e s' f ee e l c lt t a s t , tiemr France is a delightful work, gay, sparkling , piquant , metaphysical, and now and then dashed with a touch of pathos, and a sprinkling of affectation. Its greatest fault is the constant use of French idioms, which is a nuisance at once vulgar and conceited. We conclude with a specimen of Lady Morgan's best style of writing : " Years and hours are no certain measures of the du ration of life. A long life is that in which we live every hour, and feel that we do so. It is a life made up of Vivid,. rapid, and varied sensations, the parents of lasting impr, simians, and of prolific combinations of ideas ; a life in which the feelings are preserved fresh by past associa tions, and the fancy exercised by a quick succession of images; a life which, whether it makes us feel the bless ings or the burtbens of existence still gives the full con sciousness that we do 'live, breathe, and have a being.' All that is not this, is nothing,—or at best the raw ma terial of life, unworked and unenjeyed : it is the charcoal and oyster shell, substantially identical w i t h th e di amon d and the pearl, but wanting in the lustre and polish which confer on them their rarity and value. " The quantity of sensations and ideas we have crowded into a petty space of time, since our arrival in Paris, is well worth twenty years of ordinary existence. The old friendships revived, the new ones founded, and the changes impressed on every object and institution of taste, feeling, and opinion, during the interval of our absence, have left no breathing time for reflection. I have not yet found leisure to register a single impression for my own amuse ment, or haply for that of the world, which, it must be allowed, is not very difficult to amuse. " Still the bright Aurora of my return to the lend of my predilection has not risen cloudless : a mist has passed across the glow of its horizon ; and the light of the bril liant welcome, which has been given me in this capital of European intellect (like the sunshine of the month that brought me here), has been sullied by a tear, which no sunshine can dry at its source, or restrain from falling. 6 "l'he morning of my arrival, I took up my old Paris visiting book for 1818, to look for addresses, to despatch cards to old acquaintances, and notes to friends, after the Parisian fruition. The find name that met my eye was one which made me shudder, and feel, as I had felt whets I broke the black seal of the letter which so unexpectedly announced the decease of its owner. Well might that distinguished name present itself the first upon the list.— The first hand that was wont to hail our return to France, was Denen's ; the first cordial smile that gave us the warm assurance of a welcome was his. Other hands were n ow extended, other smiles beamed. now as brightly ; but his were dimmed for ever ! 66 The brightest aspect of the national character in other times, and under other institutions, was preserved and presented in the person of Damn. Kind, courteous, coithal, gay, witty, and learned, he was not only the most agreeable and. instructive of companions, but the moat o bliging end serviceable of friends. Ills brilliant and va ried conversation was a book in which men tnight read strange things.' The page, minister, and gentiThonime the la chombre of Louis the Fifteenth, the friend of Voltaire, the intimate of Napoleon, the traveller and historian of modern Egypt, the director of the Mutate of France, when Pietist, author, artist, anti quar i an, Paris was the museum of the world,---as courtier, diplo he had passed the ordeal of the greatest changes, the most violent transitions, the world had ever seen ; and he hail p asse d th em w ith principles unshaken and feelings unworn. All this was Drawn; but though he were not all, or any of this, still he suited ene-1 suited hint. The same -firth s made us laugh, the same crimes made us sad.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALVS.-SErr. 27. The town settling for the Doueaster races took place this day, when many of the accounts that stood over from Doncaster were adjusted. The betting will now tura chiefly upon the Derby, which has the extraordinary num ber of 106 entries—the greatest ever known. Lord Jer sey's Cobweb colt, that has hitherto stood at the bead of the list, has given way to Mr. Shard's C,leb, who de feated Washington (the latter having been victorious in a former race with Caleb, besides having beaten a large field at Ascot) ; his supporters are numerous and influen tial. There is a report that the Chifneys have purchased him, hut we cannot trace it to any authority. Antiope, Tarn o'Shanter, Colwick, and one or two others, are next to Caleb; - but as many of the Derby horses will come out in the various two-yr-old stakes to be run in the course of the ensuing October meetings at Newmarket, the betting is not likely to be very heavy till their conclusion. No thing was done on the Oaks or St. Leger. The odds closed as follow num , . 12 to I apt Mr. Shard's Caleb (taken freely) 14 to 1 twat Lord Jersey's Cobweb colt IS to 1 agat Mr. Beardawortlea Co!wick 20 to I agat Colonel I.J.lney's Antiope colt (taken) 20 to 1 agat Mr. Henry's Tam o' Shanter. 20 to 1 apt Lord Sligo's Bras de Fee (taken) Among many anecdotes of Laws-PuILIP are the following principal of a deputation from one of the departMents (the Finisterre) was invited to dine with the King. During the dinner the King con versed freely with the deputy; and at the dessert, the latter, emboldened by the kind manner of Isis AlaJtcsvr, inquired if he slid not intend soon to visit the provinces of ancient Brittany ? 4 , Yes, very soon," said the King, " And you, Madame," said the Breton to the Queen, 5 ' des you intend to accompany your husband?" "I think not, sir," replied the Queen, " for somebody must stay et home to take care of the house.--..Le Temps. A General Officer, who bad en appointment with his MAJESTY, entered by mistake a cabinet, in which there were two ladies and wale children. One of those silted the Cener3l who he wanted ? " I wish to speak with the King," mad th e General. • 44 My husband is just gone out," said th e Lily, 41 but it will-not be long befoi e his return, unit he will t h e n introduce you to the King." The officer waited a few minutes until the husband returned. This husband was the King, and the lady in question was the Queen, SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOUR*(!iALS In another column, under the head of " Brussels Papers," will be found all the intelligence worth notice which has come to our hands respeeting the fate of the Brussels insurrection. In some of our evening contemporaries we find additions to the newa, which seem more then apocryphal. They .re professedly gleaned from travellers, and bear all the marks of being delivered uuder the proverbial privilege of that veracious class of historians. Thus we are informed that 9,000 of the Royal troops were killed in attempting an entry, though assuredly there were not 9,000 .present,—that the walls of the capital were battered with artillery, though it is well known that Brussels is not a walled town, — and that the firing at the gate of Lacken destroyed the Hotel de Ville, though the said beautiful struc ture is at the distance of a mile and a half from the gate mentioned, and has the greatest part of the city interposed between them. The only facts, in the statement of which both private letters and public papers,—both the journals of Flanders end those of Paris agree, are, that in the afternoon of the 21st the troops (" Dutch troops," as the Cou rier des Pay, Bat always affects to call the Royal forces) advanced to within a short distance of Brus sels, and being only is small detachment, were at tacked by a party of the Brussels people, supported by the volunteers frog Liege. Several persons were killed on both sides to this Skirmish, but neither party could boast of a victory. The return of thotigskirraishersao the town, together with the news that the,great.body of the national army was advancing.froin Antwerp, set the agitators in Brus sels to examine their defences, to increase their barricades, and to prepare a rehearsal of the Paris revolution by carrying atones to the higher stories of their houses to hurl on the troops. A little after midnight they likewise amused themselves by. ; sounding the tocsin,. and by beating to arms. On - Thursday morning Prince Frederick, with his army, - advanctid to the gates, and after such:resistatwe at a brave but undisciplined population, with such hastily eon . - structed defences as they had at their disposal, could oppose to him, catered the tows. Resistance dal not here cease. It is affirmed that some sanguinary fighting took place am Friday -Morning.; but that , in the afternoon of that day the Prince Was completely master of the place. As no paper was published in . Brussels from the 23d to the 25tb, and as the gates were barricaded so as to prevent 1 the departure of. coaches or couriers, we have .no particulars. of the two latter days from the town itself. Nothing, therefore, is known with certainty but the result, and of t hat we have as yet no official communicas lion. If we can trust the French accounts, the ,pti pulace or workmen out of employ must have been the chief actors in those sanguinary conflicts. Great disunion existed in the ranks, and paralysed the councils of the more respectable insurgents. The Committee of Public Safety seemed to have eon. suited its own safety by flying to the French fron tier; the Regency had ceased to act from Monday the 20th instant, and the Provisional Government existed only on paper; time head of it, Al. ire Pot ter, being probably still in Paris. The poor mit. guided citizens were thus left to fight for the re dress of imaginary wrongs under leaders as ignorant of real grievances at themselves. Such, we hope mind trust, is the end of a revolt which originated in a mob, and has terminated in a masaaere,—which was as mad in its conception ask was contemptible in its means of execution; and which would only excite our ridicule, if our feeling of the ridiculous were not overpowered by our horror at the, needless wheddingof blood—by our sympathy for the innocent sufferers, and our pity for those whom the law may claim as its victims after thesword has been sheathed. 1-lad the armed citizens of Brussels been satisfied with their first success against the Government —had they taken the concessions of the King as the earnest of future indulgence, and returned to order with the undiminished reputation of their . power,—they would have saved all the calamities which they have now brought on the nation, and have been considered both 'at home and abroad as the invincible champions of liberty. They had ire. deed obtained a signal victory,—theyhed treated on almost independent terms with - their, Soveteigne— they, had barred their gates against his troop., with.. out incurring the penalties of treason, and had seen the white plume of his royal son waving their ranks behind the anti-national banners which they assumed in despite of - his command. Had they' de misted, therefore, upon obteining their first demands, they would for ever have secured respect for their rights and privileges. By demanding a separation of time two divisions of the kingdom,' and by -thus challenging the Government to a trial of military strength on so doubtful and dangerous a ground, they have encountered defeat, and ruined cue of time firmest causes that ever existed. But, say their advocates, nothing was gained while the Belgium; continued united to the .IDiech ; as there was no possibility of being incorporated, from their incu rable differences on so many esaential points. Let • us examine the chief of these niieteptincies, which may be reduced to three—i4a difference in , religion, in commercial interests, and in language. 1. With regard to religion, we may remark, the porton tolerance and the equal protection towards all religious creeds established by the fundamental law, leave no room for any difficulty on that head. Or if a separation were to be initiated upon on acottnt of this difference, we should like to know what is to be proposed respecting mime 700,000 or 800,000 Catholics who inhabit time northern provinces, and whose co-:existence with the Protestants under the same laws, never prevented the Dutch republic from being prosperous and quiet. On the other hand, now that time Catholic religion has ceased to be the dominant religion in France, the Belgians would gain nothing on this head by being incorporated with their southern neighbours. 'Time new French Charter says, that Cethoticiam is the religion of the majority of the nation. True, but so it is that of the majority of the Netherlands; and this eircumstasee, added to the enactMetit already quoted of the fundamental law, and to the known character of the Nassau., ought to be a sufficient guarantee against oppression or unfavourable treat ment. A fact, perhaps more conclusive 'than urge ments, is, that from the beginning of the present commotions at Brussels anti Liege—in the state of excitement to which the discontented have been worked up, and notwithstanding their own natural anxiety to swell the list of real or pretended grievances, not one single voice has been beard complaining of a want of regard for the rights of the Catholics, or of slowness in the execution of the concordat.-2. We may likewise appeal to facts with respect to the alleged incompatibility of the coin merciel interests. The earnest entreaties of the whole of Flanders and of Antwerp that no sepere thin may take place, prove evidently that it is not more impossible un der 'the reign of William of Nassau, Oman it wits under Philip of liiirgutidy and Charles V., to blend the interests of egrieulture, manufactures, and trade, so es - to make them all thrive and prosper, Indeed, we know by the recent testim o.l oj. iy o t ift e paper, tloc he wc authority ud o ; r a 1: 10 : 1 point outran be disputed (Courrier des Pays lips., f the Sept. 8), that the present laws respecting M e customs ma y be considered as representing the .hailwants the: paler t the tithe id am r P4 s l e l tt t not j4 i ell' t i mevete itafterwa r ds very t s t a t bt f ,t ee te s tti e : 1 i : G e s l a w s eo o f the declared ti s i ll ' e a modif i er! r emain t e f rn 'f I " , t al us wish to exclude from it that part of the pribli easure of u;112 S t. l i 1 serestr l e l l‘ i v r u i l t si lel3l presentingtii,4 gtielarlailrip,ilrytesn"gtlehl,e°ilitt4ghle!lh'ftelll.. it.r.:een(:):fi)ttNlC:6.llY6Tic On h WC have always allowed, some more explaimation will h e required.
