In the ord f House of Commons last night a new writ was Greenwich. The House then went int o Comm ittee on th e Ecclesi astical Titles Assumption Bill. On the question that the second claus® stand part of the Bill, Mr. MONSELL moved the addition of a proviso, that nothing in the Act shall be construed to interfere with or in any manner restrict the free actio n of thn Roman Catlrolic Church in the United Kingdom in matter s of a spir.itual nature. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL opposed the proviso, which bad already been discussed and rejected in another form. The motion was rejected by 160 against 42. A division then took place upon the clause, which Was. carriied by 1.50 against 35. On the third clause, providing that the Act shall not extend to the use by any bishop of the Protestant Epis copal Church in Scotland, exercising episcopal functions within some place in Scotland, of any title in respect of such place; the proviso " not to give any right to such bishop to assum e any title to which he is not now by law entitled to use," Mr. S.

The Ecclesiastical Titles Assumption Bill having gone into Committee, may be considered to have vir tually passed the House of Commons. We rejoice to find that the time allowed for reflection has not been misspent. The discussion was carried forward in the fairest and most legitimate manner, and there was a total absence of anything approaching to factious opposition, or of any attempt to distort the rules and regulations of the House from their real meaning, or to bring them into operation in a manner totally op posed to the spirit in which they were ori ginally conceived. We congratulate the com munity in general on this auspicious result. The stumbling-block that has hitherto prevented the infusion of new blood into the Ministry —that has re tained Sir CHARLES WOOD at the Exchequer, to afford new evidences of financial imbecility, and to resist with dogged obstinacy every amelioration, will speedily be removed. The subject that had almost evoked the demon of religious intolerance, and set brother against brother for opinion sake, that unloosed " Civil dissension with its vip'rous tooth, That gnaws the bowels of the commonweal," will at once, and we trust for ever, be set at rest. The Act, when passed, will remain as a perpetual protest against the interference of any foreign potentate:with the domestic concerns of the United Kingdom. It may be regarded as a solemn declaration of British indepen dence, such as would have been sanctioned by our Roman Catholic ancestors before the Reformation. That is its great end and object, and most earnestly do we hope that it may never require to be brought into practical operation. On the part of the British people we totally and entirely disclaim any desire to interfere with the free exercise of the Roman Catholic religion, or to impose any penalty or disability on its professors. Our principles are, as they ever have been, those of universal toleration—that every man should be at liberty to worship his CREATOR in the manner which in his soul and conscience he deemed most proper, without let or hindrance, or being called to account therefor. But we positively deny the right of the PoNYirr to parcel out at his mere will and pleasure the British soil into ecclesiastical divisions—to create bishops with territorial titles, holding temporal rank in this country, or to depose such bishops if created. The customs that prevailed in this country from the olden time —even before the Norman conquest to the reign of HENRY Vlll.—and from thence to the present period ; nay, more, the cus toms prevailing in almost every Roman country of Europe at this moment, clearly show that a sacrifice of national independence is not essential to the free exercise of the Roman Catholic religion. Why, then, should we be expected to submit to conduct which would be steadfastly and energetically re sisted by the authorities in France or Belgium ? and why should a temperate vindication of the preroga tives of our SOVEREIGN be characterised as an act of illiberality —a reactionary course, unbecoming the latter moiety of the nineteenth century, and more be coming the spirit in which the penal code was con ceived than that more benignant one in which the Emancipation Act was framed ? Several amendments were brought forward last eight, on all of which the Government succeeded by large majorities. As the entire matter has been so fully canvassed already, it is quite unnecessary to enter at any length into the details. The chief ques tion was, whether the Act should extend to Ireland. The Honourable Gentleman the Member for Roch dale having moved the introduction of a clause exempting that country from its operation, this led to rather an animated debate, during which a passage at arms occurred, and lances were broken between the Members for Galway and West Surrey. There might be some truth in the assertion that there was considerable difference in the state of affairs in England and Ireland ; but we cannot forget that the chief argument of the oppo nents of any legislation whatsoever in the first in stance was, that no law could be made for England that should not also apply to Ireland, and they relied on the condition of that country as being unfavourable to any enactments whatsoever We felt that the parties were assuming dangerous ground, that they were proving rather too much for their own interests. It has turned out ac cording to our anticipations. The inconsistency of having different laws for different portions of the United Kingdom was no sooner recognised and acted on than a new light broke in on its most strenuous supporters; and they no sooner found that Ireland could not carry England along with it to a port of safety than they endeavoured to " cut the painter," and dissolve the connexion. They cannot, however, complain at being taken at their own words, and being practically taught that they are in all respects in the same boat with their English brethren. For our own parts, we confess that we object to any ex clusive legislation, and conceive that the laws of the United Kingdom should be assimilated in every par ticular, so that Ireland should indeed be an integral part of the British dominions. Angry passions are beginning to develope them selves more and more clearly each day in the discus slops of th e F rench Leg i s l at i ve A ssem bl y . I n pro portion to o n the Republican representatives t n im ea e rer wh to ich the p bri e n ri gs od the expiratio n of their authorit y , the more factious and violent amongst them m become seem toconscious that their opport un i t i es for provoking excitement are being perceptibly diminished. Ins omuc h has t his been rendered apparent, that m.p LAm A has found himself compell e d at la ß s t add ress to ß T iNj3 a dignified remonstrance to those Mountaineers who venture to raise from the tribun e of the consti tutional Legislature itself the outcry of organized sedition. This remonstran ce has been articulated by the founder of the Republi c thro ugh the medi um o f his organ as a journalist—the Pays at all moments addressing its intelligence to the solution of the (lift_ culties now thickening rapidly round the Democr acy . Aided though they may be by such lights of p a . triotism, and probity, and statesmanship, the citizens of France must experience almost in surmountable obstacles to the formation of a J't estimate of the political situation of their Country. First, the responsibility of modifying the Constitution will devolve upon the Assembly, and after that will depend upon the people the great and momentous duty of selecting their second Re publican President. 'with reference to the former proceeding, the course most advisable to be pursued by the popular representatives is too obvious to neces sitate any very explicit definition. As to the choice the words " used as the designation of office in such church, or tl the use of the title of archbishop, bishop, or dean, taken by any person solely as the designation of his office, for the government of any voluntary church according to its rules and usages, and not chiming to have by law in respect of such title any jur sdiction, authority, or pre-eminence in the United Kingdom." Sir G. GREY opposed the amendment, which, upon a division, was rejected by 118 against 33. The third (and last) clause was agreed to without a division. Mr. S. CRAWFORD then moved to add a new clause, exempting Ireland from the operation of the Bill. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL opposed the clause as tanta mount to a declaration that the QUEEN'S prerogative did not extend to Ireland. After a lengthened discussion the clause was negatived by 255 against 60. Sir ROBERT HARRY INGus moved a clause declaring her MAJESTY'S pre-eminence in right of her imperial crown; that the Bishop of RoME had of late years as sumed jurisdiction within this realm, by constituting sees and appointing bishops; that such assumptions have no foundation in the law of this realm, but are rather mani festly against all law; that the grant of rank, precedence, and titles cannot by law be imparted to the bishops and clergy of any communion other than that of the Esta blished Church; and enacting that it shall not be lawful for any servant of the Crown to allow any rank or pre cedence, or to use any title of honour in respect of any ecclesiastical dignity in the Church of Rome, to any per son not having her MAJESTY'S licence for such title; with a proviso in favour of any usage of for ra the maintenancenkortitle in any d e pendency ceded to the Crown where special provision shall have been made by the treaty Lord n ' JOHN RUSS EL L, and of Thethe Celheuerscehwoafeßopompoesetdhebryei r it, 166. on a division was negatived by a unajuity of 45, the nu mbers being—for the clause, 191; against The CHAIRMAN was then ordered to report progress, and the House resumed. Board of General The G of Health Bill p asse d th roug h The Committee. report of the Prevention of Offences Bill, with - amendments, was considered. The report of the Committee on home-made spirits in bond was received; the resolution was agreed to, and a Bill was ordered to be brought in. Mr. LAU OUCHERE obtained leave . to bring in a Bill to amend the Acts relating to the Merchant Seamen's Fund. LONDON, SATURDAY to be made in the latter particular, that is hardly yet as apparent. Upon the former occasi on , w h en the dictator s hip ta g torhip of CAVAIGNAC had succeeded to the Executive Commissioners, selected for the admistra tion of the affairs of the Republic from the first agitated councils of the Provisional Government, the candidates who presented themselves to the nation as aspirants for the dignity of chief magistrate, were of a character so marked in their several kinds as to admit of no hesitation or misapprehension. There was the hero of February, whose unflinching valour had rescued Paris from anarchy and France from terrorism, and who had thereby surrounded with a prestige of glory the name, already familiar and beloved, of LAMARTINE. There was the soldier of June, whose generalship bad con quered the more ferocious faction of revolutionists, those men who, in the emphatic words of the English annalist proved to be " pagans in the midst of Christianity, and savages in the midst of civilization," and who had thereby earned for himself the gratitude which history will proclaim to be the just meed of CAVAIGNAC. There was the champion of the ultra democrats, whose official documents had engendered so much ill-feeling and irritation through out the departments, and who thereby had ruined the opportunity which might otherwise have offered itself to the energies of LEDRU ROLLIN. There was, moreover, the representative of the house of BONAPARTE, the heir to the fortunes, or, as they bad rather proved heretofore, the misfortunes, of the EMPEROR, the head and chieftain of the NAPOLEON dy nasty, who had hitherto betrayed more audacity than judgment, more frivolity than intelligence, and more eccentricity than intellectual endowments, but wbo retained withal a marvellous and still puissant talis man of success, in the simple fact of his name and its many illustrious associations. Called upon to select from those four remarkable candidates the one they would prefer beyond his competitors, the people of France chose, it can never be forgotten, the very one whose capacities for the direction of the affairs of a government were the least comprehended, but whose conduct since then has, in every particular, demonstrated the fortunate sagacity of their selection. After four years of un interrupted power, LOUIS NAPOLEON will be required either to withdraw into honourable seclusion, or al low himself to be again lifted to the perilous elevation of the Presidency. Embarrassed by the continued difficulties of her position, France will possibly be induced to entrust again to the hands of the occupant of the Elysee, the son of HORTENSE and the nephew of NAPOLEON, the authority which for so long a period he has exercised with such remarkable discretion. It may be that a sentiment not unlike that of actual gratitude may persuade the Republican electors to reward by a re newal of this same autbority the Prince who has con tinued faithful to his oath of loyalty in spite of every dynastic remembrance, and of various scarcely re sistible temptations. Whatever may be the principle upon which the votes of the population are to be de livered in, it is earnestly to be hoped that the stability of their existing institutions may be above everything borne sedulously in recollection. It should not, for instance, be forgotten that all kinds of monarchical government have been tried in succes- sion, and that, weighed in the balance of experiment, they have each in turn been found wanting. Neither should the circumstance be overlooked that the ancient dynasty of the Bouunons proved in capable of preserving its sway over the loyalty of the multitude, though supported by the arms of the allied Sovereigns, and forced back upon the realm of their ancestors by two memorable restorations. While it should be as carefully borne in mind that the house of Orleans in like manner was found to be an ineffec- tual security against the vices of kingcraft and the avarice of monarchical aggrandizement. Enlightened by these bitter experiences, France will, do well to keep a watchful eye upon the safety of her democratic institutions. MARKET Nb WS.---( THIS DAY COVENT GARDEN.

An immense frame, representing the Shield of Achilles, has in the centre a transparent head of Medusa, around which various serpents revolve in a most surprising manner. Different coloured fires and numerous combinations are exhibited, and the artist un hesitatingly stakes, upon the result, his claim to be consi dered the "first pyrotechnist of the day." THE EXHIBITION BONNETS, &c.—Although there are very many beautiful bonnets in the English class, it would seem that some of the principal manufacturers were too much engaged to contribute to the collection. The dis play must therefore not be taken as.a true exponent of the capabilities of this branch of trade, into which of late a de gree of vitality has been thrown by one or two firms, which has given to the less energetic the title of " the old school." The new system appears not to allow anything to interfere with novelty, and thus, by continually producing newness of style and material, to create a never-dying demand. This experiment has been eminently successful, arid we are in formed of one house alone, that of Frederick Goodyear, of St. Paul's Churchyard, which bas contributed largely by its spirit and enterprise to this state of things, and principally through which London can now vie with any place in Europe o i n t h t e h r i s h o t r u a u d e e t , e a n n o d w i na so much e m e d u e t h o t t h h i e s v h o o g u u s e e a t h r e e t e r x a g o e u a i s h i l t e e ._ fa r aonidd DEATH OF SIR DAVID SCOTT, BART.—We have to announce the demise of Sir David Scott, Bart, K.H., who expired on Wednesday last, at his town residence in Glou cester-place.

The weekly statement of the Bank of England is dis tinguished by a further augmentation of specie, though not to the extent which we may expect to see in the next return, owing to the important arrivals of the pre °ions metals this week from the United States, Mexico, and Panama. The Government deposit account has further increased, and now shows satisfactorily. The active circulation was smaller, owing to the additional amount of the deposits.

'Sittings at Nisi PriuF, at Westminster, before the LORD CIIIEF JUSTICE, and a Special Jury.) FLORENCE V. LAWSON. This was an action to recover compensation in damages for a libel alleged to have been published in the Times newspaper, and reflecting on the character of the plaintiff. The defendant pleaded justification. The Attorney-General and Mr. Bannister appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Humfrey, Mr. Hawkins, and Mr. Bovill conducted the defence. It appeared from the opening statement of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, that Mr. Florence, the plaintiff, and another person named Davies, were in partnership, and carried on the Bishopsgate Distillery in the City road. Differences having arisen between them, the partnership was dissolved, and proceedings were after wards taken in Chancery for the purpose of determining the rights of the two parties. Several hearings took place before Mr. Baron Plait, at chambers, under an interpleader summons in regard to the ownership of certain property, and two lengthened reports of the proceedings were published in the l imes on the 14th and 16th of December, 1850. In the second report, an affidavit, stated to be made by Mr. Davis, who had since become a bankrupt, was pub lished in detail, in which he accused the plaintiff of having misappropriated 7,000/., and of other malpractices. This affidavit had never been sworn nor referred to at the hearings before the Learned Judge, and contained statements prejudicial to the character and future pros pects of the plaintiff. Application had been made to the Times for the name of the person who bad supplied the report, the plaintiff believing that the conductors of that journal bad no wilful intention of injuring him, but that the affidavit had been inserted at the instigation of some third party with the view of influencing pro ceedings elsewhere; but that request was not complied with, and therefore the only course the plaintiff could adopt to clear himself from these false imputations was to bring this case before a jury. The plaintiff's solicitor having been examined as to the proceedings before Mr. Baron Platt, Mr. IIUDIFREY, after a brief consultation with the Attorney-General, said he was happy to intimate to the jury, that an arrangement had been come to between the parties, by which the further consideration would be dispensed with. The proprietors of the 7 imes re gretted that they had been led inadvertently into th_ , publication of the libel, for such it undoubtedly was. It was well known that that journal devoted considerable space to all investigations with respect to frauds . in been mercial transactions, and their attention directed to this particular inquiry, a re porte b t a tt v t i e n fided at the Judge's Chambers, and one of the parties . furnished him with the affidavit in question, which was repre sented to have been sworn and adduced in the ordinary way in the course of the inquiry. The mistake whi c h a had been committed in inserting it was, i no doubt, very serious one, but he had been a uthorized by t h e Times to say that no pecuniary_ consideration should stand in the way of justice being . done to th e p l a i ntiff. His Learned Friend, however, with great lib erality and fairness, said he should be satisfied if every expense in curred by the plaintiff were defrayed,and if a retracts tion wet© mace of the accusations contai ne d i n the affi davit. To these terms he had consented in no niggard spirit, and the plaintiff desired no m ore. The ATTORNEY-OLNERAI, expressed himself ostisa4 with the offer of his Learned Friend, and said he was rcady to admit that in' Times newspaper was not ac tuated in any way by malice or ill-feeling towards any party concerned in the transaction. After a few words from 1, ,, rd CAMPBELL, A verdict was entered for the plaintiff. CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER.) ASSAULTING THE POLICE.— Georye Hewlett, aged 30, described as a labourer, was indicted for feloniously wounding William Curtis, a police-constable, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Ballantine defended the prisoner. On the night of the 3d of May the policeman was on duty at Bromley, in Middlesex, when be heard a neise in the neighbourhood of the High-street, and on hasten ing thither he found the prisoner and others fighting. He tried to part them, but failed to do so, and in the course of the scuffle the prisoner got possession of the constable's staff; and struck him!down. He then hur ried home and retired to rest, but some six or seven other members of the force went in pursuit and tracked him to his very bed. He, however, refused to get up and to dress himself, and the six or seven policemen, according to their own account, bad to drag him out and convey him to the station-house in a state of nudity. The defence set up was, that the policeman was the aggressor in the first instance; indeed, he was partially drunk at the time the disturbance took place, and rushing in amongst the mob, he laid his truncheon about him right and left, without reference to the skulls it fell upon. Evidence was produced to show that the constable bad been drinking at the Victoria public-house the whole night, in company with many of those who took part in the disturbance, and that he was as much to blame as the prisoner. (The case was proceeding when our report left.) BOW-STREET. -(THIS DAY.) Thomas Erskine Souper, remanded upon a charge of embezzling certain sums of money, the property of his employers, the Thames Plate Glass Company, was fur ther remanded for a week, to enable the prosecutors to bring np evidence from Manchester and other places in the several cases to be brought against the prisoner, on whose part Mr. Wontner, his solicitor, made no ob jection. PARTIAL DESTRUCTION OP THE WESTERN LITE LARY INSTITUTION BY FIRE. _(THIS DAY )—About twelve o'clock this morning the greatest alarm prevailed in the neighbourhood of Leicester-square, owing to the outbreak of a fire at the Western Literary Institution. The sudden bursting forth of flames from under the seats where the audience attend, soon denoted to those on the premises the cause of alarm, and messengers were sent for the Brigade and West of England engines instantly. Six of the former body were in quick attendance. By one o'clock the flames were checked in their progress, but the majority of the seats are destroyed, and other serious damage occasioned. All further danger, however, has ceased. The engines were at work when our informant lefc. The houses of Messrs. Gol born, printers, and a coffee-house and chop-house adjoining, are both greatly damaged.

The num ber of visitors was very considerable, and the appearance of the place gay and brilliant. Some of the mimic gallants of the age of the Merry Monarch were well habited, and, as far as external appearance went, did no dishonour to the Rochesters, Sedleys, Buckinghams, Davenants, dsc., of those piping times. The ladies, if they resembled their predeces• sors of the days of Charles 11. in nothing else, were certainly not behind them in the freedom of their deportment. There were several Nell Gwynnes, if not as fascinating, at least as forward as the celebrated original. The dancing and the diversions of the bal were, however, sufficiently decorous, and good humour and mirth prevailed for several hours in all parts ofthe grounds. The illuminations were particularly good, and the arrangements reflect credit on Mr. Wardell and his assistant arbiter elegantiarum Mr. B. Barnett. The band was an efficient one, and the whole was satisfactory to the British and foreign visitors of this very old and favourite place of pleasurable resort. APPOINTMEN T —The following official circular was issued yesterday from St. Martin's-le- Grand :—" To all Postmasters.

THE GREAT CHESS TOURNAMENT". —Since our no tice of the progress of these matches on Wednesday last, the players have taken a little rest from their labours. On Tues day the course of victory continued to flow in the same chan nel, Herr Anderssen winning a second game of Mr. Staunton; Mr. Williams a third of Mr. Wyvill. On Wednesday and Thursday there was no play, but yesterday the contest was resumed with renewed spirit, and the many admirers of England's ehampion were confident that Caissa, who has so often crowned his efforts, would once more smile on her fa vourite son. It was not so, however; chess goddesses, it seems, are not less inconsistent than mere mortal dames. After a well-maintained struggle of some hours, the German was once more victorious over the Briton, and has now only one more game to win of Staunton. Mr. Williams was less successful; he lost his game to Mr. Wyvill. Their match stands, therefore, three ga mes to Williams, one to Wyvill. We understand that the play is to be continued on Monday. Mr. Horwitz has been completely defeated by Herr Szen, the Hungarian player, who has won four games without losing one. Captain Kennedy has been equally successful against Mr. Mucklow. The contest between the provincial players, of which we took some notice last week, has finally termi nated. Mr. Boden, of Hull, having beaten all his competi tors, obtains the first prize; Mr. Rankin, of Clifton (we be lieve), the second ; the third and fourth are won by Mr. Bryan and Mr. Hodges. The Government have augmented the annual grant to the Nottingham School of Design from 2501. to 4001. Mr. Henry Sedge wick Wylde, barrister-at-law, has been appointed one of the Registrars to the Court of Bankruptcy, in the room of Mr. Charles Waterfield, resigned. HONESTY IN HUMBLE LIFE.—A few nights ago John Jones, one of the street orderlies (No. 125) employed in cleansing the City, found a silver watch and chain in Bishopsgate-gate. On restoring the same to the owner, who had given up all idea of recovering the articles, he was rewarded with the munificent sum of one shilling AGRICULTURAL PROSPERITY IN SCOTLAND. --This is the usual period of rent collection in the district; and we are glad to learn from all quarters that the rents have been exceedingly well paid— better, indeed, if possible, than or dinary.

The Earl of Eglinton has announced his intention to give a piece of plate annually for the encouragement of the Scotch national game of curling iu the county of Ayr. THE LATE BALLOON ACCIDENT. —We are informed that, notwithstanding the serious accident which befel Mr. and airs. Graham a few days since, they are progressing ra pidly towards recovery. MALTA, JUNE 12.—0 n the 10th a very large shark was caught by some fishermen off St. Paul's Bay, and brought in here, when its head and tail were cut off and exhibited. The shark is rarely found there, and has already alarmed the bathers. The animal in question was of the genus squalus carcharius, weighed 1 ,9351 b., and was 15 feet in length, 9 1 / 2 feet in circumference. FATAL ACCIDENT TO A SON OF MAJOR STUPART —Mr. Robert Stupart, aged about 21, son of Major Stupart, formerly of the Scots Greys, and one of the remaining heroes of Waterloo, now residing near Edinburgh, while on a visit to his cousin, Mr. Mill, of Portmoon, was in the habit occasionally of going down the dangerous paths which in tersect the rocks in that part of, the coast, for the purpose of gathering sea-gulls' eggs. While engaged in this manner, on the sth inst., by himself, as it appears, he lost his footing, and was killed.

LITERATURE, LETTERS TO A CANDID Ili QUIRER ON ANIMAL MAGNETISM. B y Gre g6ry, AID., R.S.E., Professor of Chemistry in the University of _Etlihlourch. F. This is the first attempt that has been made to give to the world a systematic work on the subject of mes merism, or, as Dr. Gregory prefers to designate it, animal magnetism. It is very true that Dr. Elliot , son has, in his excellent work on physiology, entered somewhat at large into the subject, and that by his indefatigable labours in the cause of mesmeric science and his invaluable communications in the Zoist, he may fairly claim the honour of having done more, much more for the science, than either Mesmer himself or any of his followers ; but he has not given us a systematic work on the subject (he has employed his time in a manner much more conducive to the pro gress of the science), an d ne ith er the works of Messrs. Townsend, Sandby, S cores by, Esdaile, Mayo, o r Miss Martine au , a d m i ra bl e a s they are, are altogether c a l cu l a t e d t o su pplY the want which all stud en t s h ave f e lt, that, namely , of a systematic treatise on mesmerism which should methodize and arrange the various phenomena which have been observed. That want is surplY sup" plied by the Letters now under review. The work is divided into two parts • in the first part Dr . Gre gory gives u s a general ' description and analysis of the phenomena, and in the second part he gives u s various facts and cases, with observations thereon. The first three letters are devoted to the consideration of the various objections usually urged against animal magnetism ; having disposed of which, the author proceeds to describe and analyze the various Ow nomena, from the simple magnetic sleep up to te. state of ecstacism. Hi s o bs erv ations on the danger of rash experiments, and on th e d o ubtfulness of the . vantage of public exhibitions, should be attenti vel y considered by all who desire to study animal nag: netism as a science. The author having gene at length int o th e su bj ec t o f phreno-magnetism pro ceeds to consider the action of magnets, crystals, &c., on th e human frame, and then gives an admirable resume of the researches of Reichen• baeh, and of his discovery of a universally diffused force, to which he gives the name of Odyle, and which Dr. Gregory proves to be identical with the magnetic fluid of Mesmer. The first part con' eludes with several practical hints and cautions to b e observed in conducting experiments. In the part we have a collection of all the more remarkable facts and cases, in the course of which the subjects.% the magic mirror, of the magic crystal and of the Egyptian magic are fully considered ; as well as cases of trance, ecstacies, apparitions, and predictions. It is fortunate for the cause of animal magnetises that the task of preparing the first systematic work f on the subject should have fallen into the band s second Dr. Gregory, who, by his previous studies and hi s admirable translation of Reichenbach's researches, Will so well qualified to do it justice. This must hence' forth be the text-book of every scientific inquirer. T R Messrs, Arthur Richard A. Arroy Iles:ors. 1 Co. . liessrs. Soanae. 31 essrs. Phens, Sir Jame alessrs.. ford - Messrs.
