Bulwer's Monarchy of the Middle Classes in Prance. Second Series. - In 1825, perishing from hunger, in a garret, died this extraordinary man, related to the famous Duke, whose Memoirs we arc acquainted with—uncle to the Count de St. Simon, late Minister in Sweden, and descended from the Dukes de Vermandois, Peers of Charlemagne. Mahomet could not boast of a life more full of action and adventure. In 1760, he entered at the age of seventeen, into the mi litary service, and served five campaigns in America, with the rank of Colonel. " Descartes,' he says in his works, " was a soldier before he was a philosopher :—he was brave in the field, and daring in his studies." This quotation he wished to be applied to himself. But the Constitution of America struck him more forcibly than the war which secured it. " I was not born," he remarks, "to be a grea t ca ptain, my mind was framed for a different species of activity ;'' and though he so far retained the habits of a camp, as to have been known throughout life as.much for a duellist as a philanthropist, he soon gave up the career of arms and devoted himself to—what he con ceived—the cause of perfection and civilization. ' The revolution of America struck him in the same man ner that it struck Paine :—as the commencement of an era in which the energies and destinies of the human race were to take a new developement ; and separating himself from the subversive system of the revolution of 89, he directed all his thoughts to the reconstruction of society, on a different foundation from that which had been destroyed. Nor did he proceed without a plan ! The thirty-four years prior to the publication of " Le Nouveau Christianisrne" were thus divided : Seven years he allowed to the acquisition of pecuniary means---seven to the acquisition of metaphysical and scien tific knowledge—ten to a philosophical—ten to a political renovation. Pursuanf to this course, he entered in 1770 into a com mercial association with Count Redern, the gains of which were immense ; and, separating himself from his colleague, St. Simon commenced the second part of his project. And now, in order to pursue his studies with greater ad vantage, he established himself successively opposite the Ecole de Medecine and. the Ecole Polytechnique. His house, his table, his purse, were prodigally open to every professor, or experimentalist, in science. " Money !" said he to a physician, " is money what you want to prosecute your discovery ? Here is money ! " And he was known to have given to different individuals as much as 100,000 francs (4,0001.) at a time. It is easy to imagine that no fortune could long resist so princely a disposition ; and from the donor to science, this benevolent, if mistaken man, soon became the petitioner in its favour. It was then that the speculative philosopher, whose abilities every one had hitherto acknowledged, sunk into the charlatan, whose reveries every one despised. This sudden turn of opinion, of which he was much too artless to perceive the cause, persuaded St. Simon, for a moment, that he had mi§taken both his calling and his genius ; and with the energy of his character, he immedi ately discharged a pistol at his head ; which , though it miserably lacerated him, did not put an end to his existence. Shortly afterwards, " The New Christianity" was pub lished ; in which work, passing beyond his former theories, and taking them as the bases of his assertion, he proclaimed the impossibility of establishing any general system except upon a " Sentiment of religion." e The last days of this unhappy enthusiast were passed in an honourable state of misery, which it is difficult not to feel for, as one considers the disinterestedness of his conduct. " For a fortnight," says he, not long before his death, " I have ate nothing but bread, and drank nothing but water. lam writing in the depth of winter without a fire ; and I have just sold my coat in order to pay for the copy of my work. It is my passion for science and the public weal—it is my burning and unquenchable desire to deliver humanity, by some gentle process, from . the errors in which it finds itself, that makes me support my distress with cou rage, and deprives me of any shame in acknowledging it." I confess that, upon the memory of such a man, ridicu lous and erroneous as I deem his opinions, I pause with a certain respect COTTON.—We have had a steady Cotton Market to-day, and the sales amount to 3,000 bags without any change in prices. DARING ROBBERY.—A man, having the appear ance of a respectable mechanic, called on Wednesday last, about eleven o'clock, at Mr. Wray's residence, Ash ville House, Battersea-fields, and said he had been sent by Mr. Bailey, of Oxford-street, at Mr. Wray's request, for a bronze lamp of considerable value, with four Argand burners, to repair; he called again in the afternoon, and said he had been sent for the lantern which hung in the hall. After they had been delivered to him, suspir vlo4 arose, and on se n di ng to Mr. Wray's place of bu,i4:00,.s on Holborn-hill, the felony was discovered, , JAN. 9. -.....— The Isaac Hicks, Ingersoll, from New Orleans ; Pursuit, Arthur, Cadiz; Perseverance, Minat, Antwerp; Bezaliel, Marseilles; Mary, Quebec; Pacific, Morrison, St. Andrew's, New Brunswick; Colchis, Knight, Savannah: • ENTERED FOR LOADING, JaN. 8.

Mr. Ham ilton, the British minister plenipotentiary, gave a grind ball on the 24th ult., to Lord Edward Russell and his officers. - Lord Edward attracted considerable attention here, not only for his being a scion of the noble house o f Bedford, but that he is the brother of Lord John Russell, of Reform Bill no toriety.

Last Saturday night the family of Mr. Wood, patent hook-and-eye manufacturer, of Newcastle-street, -Farring don-street, were thrown into the gieatest excitement in consequence of a fire having been discovered in the work shop on the first floor. Mr. Wood and his family en deavoured by every means. in• their power to arrest the progress of the fire, but they were unable to do so ; and, information having been forwarded to the Farringdon street engine -station, the men 'were in immediate attend .ance. Fortunately, by their exertions they prevented that extent of damage which for a time was considered inevi table. The fire was occasioned by the overheating of a large stove used in the'tiroceSs of drying the lacquer: Mr. Wood is amply insured in the Hand-in-Hand Fire-office... At a late hour on Friday evening considerable , damage was done by fire on the second floor of the Westmoreland Arms public-house; City-road. • On the alarm being given several persons hastened .Up stairs to render assistance, and in a short time several of the. London . Establishment engines and firemen arrived, and, notwithstanding the fire had reached an alarming ascendancy, they were 'enabled, though with the utmost difficulty, to confine the damage , to the floor on which it originated. The property is in-. sured in the Scottish Union Fire-office. The London fire men are more fortunate in extinguishing fires than those be longing to the American Companies, .notwithstanding their professed cleverness on these occasions. Between three and four o'clock on Saturday afternoon a fire was discovered on the premises of Mr. Brate, of the Mitre Tavern, Broadwall, Blackfriars-road. On the alarm being first given, a large engine from the Waterloo-road, belonging to the London Fire; Establishment,! was. quickly on the spot,. and, with the assistance of 'the neighbours, the flames were extinguished without doing much damage. The accident originated through .the overheating of the kitchen flue, and the flooring igniting. Mr. Bratc is amply insured in the Imperial Fire-office to the full extent of his loss. On Thursday morning, between the hours of 11 and 12 o'clock, a young woman named Mansford entered the Rose public-house, London-street; Tottenham-court road, kept by Mr. Wright, and walking up to the bar ,re quested a gentleman who was in conversation with a ne phew of Mr. - Wright to be kind enough to treat her with a small glass of brandy, which he immediately gave her, and . observed her put some salts, as he supposed, . into another glass. He observed two pieces of paper on the floor, which he found were labelled " PoiSon-'--Oxalic Acid." The alarm was immediately given, and a policeman accompanied the gentleman in search of the unfortunate female. • After a lapse of three quarters of an hour they discovered the poor creature at the further end of Hay's Mews, Francis-street, Tottenham-court-road. She was in a fainting condition, and had been very sick, and was being supported b y a sta bleman, who knew nothing of the real cause of her ailment. Surgical assistance was promptly procured, and the stomach pump was immediately app lied b y Mr. Henning, who suc ceeding in extracting the poison. After administering re storatives she was conveyed to her own residence, in Lisson Grove North. She is a married woman, and it was ex torted from her that jealoasy and the liquor she had drank wa s the cause of he r committing the rash act. She has twice attempted her life within the last six months. A MODERN ROB Roy.----We are informed that a persori, whose name we have not learned, but to whom this is not inappropriate, has been of late roaming about various parts of Stirlingshire, lifting cattle from parks, in single cows at a time, and of selling them to individuals who are imposed upon by the plausible story he tells. It has, IVe understand, been already ascertained that ten or a , do zen have, in this way, been stolen from farmers in the parishes of Falkirk, Denny, St. Niuians; and Kilsyth, within these few weeks, past. Although strict investigations have been made by the Fiscal, &c., and a handsome reward offered by the Society for the Protection of Property at Falkirk, the depredator, who has the appearance of a drover, and speaks 'with a. Highland accent, has• hitherto eluded detectio n. We hope, however, soon to hear of his appre hension in the -meantime, wo think it right to warn cattle-dealers and others not to purchase from a person in such suspicious circumstances, but to do what they can to bring him to jus tice,—Edinburgh Observer of Tuesday. • .. I had read so many harro:ying Accounts of the'burialw p ....ia l nu a dit e : e nwta ,: a t or p e l d es a, visit tbiat.t clean,l A I: p • e na n c t oi 01 . 1 d v u i s t in, h aa a inl : 0 American wpeetlie. dp atih,eed of my iron , y dtlo, a iot c.' rh, long ro l w nee s nNet o e f iron rings in the heavy slabs of the pavement. c i ri•!.hout asking a question, the o ld man walked across to the farthe7st corner, where stood a moveable lever, and fas pit. lid. requested us to stand back for .a few tening the chair' into the fixture, raised the massive .stone cover of ' a minutes, to give the e fi,:via time to escape, and then shel tering our eyes with our ha.t. 4, we looked in. You have read, of course, that there are t►:_ree hundred and sixty-five pits in this city, one of which is opened every day for the dead of the-eity. They are thrown .in, without a shroud or coffin; and the pit is sealed up at night •for a year. They are thirty or forty feet deep, and each;would contain perhaps two hundred bodies. - It was some time before we could distinguish any •-thing• in the darkness of the abyss. Fixing my eyes on the spot, however, the outlines of a body became defined gradually, and. in a few minutes, sheltering my eyes completely from the, sun above, I could see all the horrors of the scene but too distinctly. Eight corpses, all of grown.persons , lay in a confused heap together, as they had be& throwi; in one after another in the course of the day. The last was a i;owerful gray old man,vhe had falleeflat on his back, with his t",fjht hand across, and half covering the face of a woman. By bis full limbs and chest and the dark colour of his legs below the knee, be was pro bably one of the •lazzaroni,. and had met with death. Hi s right heel- lay on.the forehead of a yoong man, emaciated to the last degree, his chest thrown up as he lay, and his ribs showing, like a skeleton covered with a skit. The close black curls of the 'latter, as• his head rested o:i . i another body, were in such strong relief that I could, have Counted them. Off to the right, goite distinct from the heap, izy, in a beautiful attitude, a girl, as well as I could judge, of not more than nineteen or twenty. She had fallen ,on the pile, and rolled or slid away: jier hair was very long, and covered her left shoulder and bosom ; her arm was across her • body, and if -her mother had laid her down to sleep, she could not have disposed her limbs more decently. The bead had fallen a little way to the right, and the feet, whieh were small even for a lady, were pressed one against the other, as if she were about turning on her side. The sexton ,said that a young man had come with the body, and was very ill for some time after it was thrown in. We asked him if respectable people were • brought here. ' Yes,' he said, ' many. None but the rich would go to the expense of a separate grave for their relations. People were often brought in handsome grave clothes; bUt they were always stripped before they were left . The shroud, ivheneccr there was one, was the perquisite of the undertakers.' And thus are flung into this noisome pit, like beasts, the greater part of the population of this vast city—the young and the old, the vicious and the virtuous together, without the decency even of a rag to keep up the distinctions of life! Can human beings . thus be thrown away ?—men like our selves—women, children, like our sisters and brothers? I never was so humiliated in my life as by this horrid spec tacle. I did not think a man--a felon even; 'or a leper — what you will that is guilty or debased—l did not think. any thing that had been human could h e so recklessly aban doned. Pah ! It makes one sick at heart! God grant I may never die at Naples !"—Penciffings by the Tray. FRIENDSHIP AFTER DEATH. •The Ma;9 l . h tls de . Rambouillet, elder brother of the Duchess de M or :!-apzier, sand the Mar q uis of Precy,heir of the House of NaZtouillet, both young men under 30, were intimate..-friends anj went to• war together. As they , were conversing ' day upol the other world, and mat ters of futurity which they did ;:tot believe, they promised each other, that whoever died first should bring the news to his friend. Three months after the Marquis de Ram bouillet went- to Flanders, where the war' was then carried remained at on, and Precy, detained by a severe fever, Paris. Six weeki:after, Precy, about six o'clock in the morning, heard theeurtains of his bed drawn, and turning to see who it was, beheld the Marquis de Rambouillet in regimentals. He left his bed with the intention to embrace him, and express the joy lie felt at his safe return, but Rambouillet drew back and 0 41 in a sorrowful tone,' all ca resses are now out of time. I ol.sly co me to keep the wo rd I gave to my friend. I was killed dot long since, and I now can tell you that all we doubt:A about the other wo rld is most true. Chang e y our mode • of living, and prepare for the world lam in. You have no tune t iso ose, because you will fall in the next skirmish." It mpossible to exress the surprise this produced in the Marquis de Precy. He could not believe what be heard. He macle.a new attempt to .embrace his friend, whom he accused of hoaxing him ; but he only embraced the air, and Rambouillet seeing. he was incredulous; pointed to the part where he had received his death wound, which was in the loins, and blood cootinuing to run from it. The phantom then disappeared, and left Precy in a state of indescribable terror. He called several times to his valet de chambre, and alarmed all the house with his cries. Se ' veral persons went in, and when he had related his story, they attributed what he had seen to the ardour of his fever, which had produced delirium. They entreated him to com pose his mind by sleep, and endeavoured to persuade him that all he had seen was no more than the effect of a dream. The Marquis'was not well pleased at the deter mination which was expressed to treat him ,as,a visionary, and he repeated minutely all the circumstances relaxing to the appearance of his frien d, firml y declaring that he °had seen him waking. He remained in that opinion until the arrival of the post from Flanders, by which they re.ceived news of the death of the Marquis de Rambouillet. This circumstance being found true, those - who had treated the relation of De Precy with contempt, began to consider it very extraordinary, and particularly so, as Ram bouillet was killed precisely at -the time mentioned by Dc Precy. It was impossible to account for the occurrence in the natural way. This event having been circulated in the best circles of Paris, many still believed that it was butthe effect of heated imagination, er a tale for the nursery, there were some who examined the matter seriously, and considered it a matter which time might explain. They looked,to the prediction tat te 'Marquis derec would be killed in the first skir h mish, h as the test by which whole story would stand or fall. The•completisaid. on of that The prediction unfortunately c onfirmed all he had MarqUii de Precy having recovered.. from' his illness, and the civil wars having broken out, he wished to be p resent at the battle of StAntoine, although his father - and mo ther, who dreaded the prophecy, endeavoured to persuade him not to go. He went , and was killed, to the g re gret of his family. _.------- PERSEVERANCE.--The , most , extraordinary ants the best attested instance of enthusiasm, existing in con junction with perseverance, is related of the founder of the Foley family. This man, who was' a fiddler living near Stourbridge, was often witness of the immense-labour and loss of time caused by dividing the rods of iron nec,lssary in the process .of making nails. - The discovery of the pro cess called splitting, in - works called •splitting-mills, vas first made in Sweden, and the consequences of this ad- , Vance in art were most disastrous to , the manufacturers of' iron about Stourbridge.. Foley tbe fiddler was shortly missed from his. accustome d rounds, Ind was not ag ain•seen for Many . years. He had Mentally re. Solve- to as certain by what means the process of splitting bars ef iron was plished ; and-- without communicating -his in to a single human being—be proc eeded to Hull, and without funds, worked his passage :to .the: - Swedish .Iron Port. Arrived in Sweden, he _begged and fiddled his way to the Iron Foundries, where he—,after a time—. became a universal favourite will the work flea ; and from the apparent entire absence of intelligence, 'or anything like ultimate object, he was received into the w orks, to every part of which. he had access. Ale took the advantage thus offered, and having stored his memory with observa-, tions, and all the combitiationS; he disappeared from amongst his kind friends as he had appeared,•ne onecomm knew whence or whither. On his return to England, liu unicated: his voyage and its result ta Mr..,Roight. and.anether person in the neighbourhood , w ith whoa/ lie was. associated, and was and' by whom the necessary. buildingi were erected, Machinery provided. When .at . length every thwouing not p r epared, it was found tha t the-- machinery ld act ; at all events it di d not answer the sole. end o dis f its erection—it .would not spli t. the bar . of iron. Foley appeared l again ; it'was concluded shame an d mortification at his failure had drivenim away for ever. - Not so : again, though somewhat more spee dil y he. found hi s way to the.
