The object of this work is to set forth the true doctrine respecting nature and the Deity ; and to show that the visible system of nature, the opinions of ancient nations, and the received Scriptures, all testify to the same truths. It will show that Existence is a personal identity, which accomplishes every thing within itself, by an intelligent application of its own native capabilities, according to the dictate of its own will, and for its own pleasure ; that fire is the living intelligent spirit ; and that the Jehovah of the 11, brews signifies Existence, and is the appellative of the One identity of universal being, of the One Only P.rson, besides whom there existeth neither person nor thing. The Work will also contain an Examination of what may be termed the peculiar Doctrines of Christianity ; as Creation, the Trinity, the Fall of Man, Redemption, &c.: it will .how that the Doctrine of Moses, of Jesus, and of the Messengers whom he sent to the nations, was philoso phical, not religious ; and thst the Primitive Doctrine of Christianity related to that action of physical causes, upon which man is dependent for all his present powers and his future destiny. It will further include a system of Physics, embracing a general view of the principles of modern chemical sci ence, of vegetable life, of animal life, and of the planetary motions (explained on a new principle), with a variety of other subjects of considerable intert dt to inquiring minds, and of great importance in the conduct of life. The whole will conclude with a brief outline of the history of human n store, and of the causes of those fluctuations to which human society has been subject, with an application of the generdi i rinciple to the circumstances and character of the present times.

FOR SALE BY PRIVATE CONTRACT, THE FAMILY RESIDENCE of PA -1 MOOR, and ESTATE of 368 a. 3a.. 22r. more or less, of good and productive LAND, FREEHOLD AND LAND-TAX REDEEMED; Consisting of Farms and Woods, in the Parish of HASHILE DEN, well known as the most beautiful and esteemed part of the county of Bucks, upon the borders of Ox fordshire and Berkshire ; distant 37 miles from Landon, 15 from Windsor, 10 from Maidenhead, 5 from Great Marrow, 6 from High Wycombe, 6 from Henly upon Thames, and 22 from Oxford. THE RESIDENCE OF PANIOOR is beautifully situated on a dry and healthy eminence, which commands very extensive and varied views over the admired vale of Hambleden, and a country abounding in picturesque beauty. The most celebrated scenery on the banks of the River Thames is also within easy reach. It is at present in the occupation of the proprietor, is in perfect repair, and lit for the immediate reception of a family of respecta bility, requiring a mansion on the scale of comfort rather than show ; containing on the ground floor, a hall, 19 feet by 16, dining-rcom, 21 feet by 141, breakfast room, 14 feet by 14, drawing-room, 21 feet by 14-i, library, 16 feet by 111, excellent spacious servants' hall or principal kitchen, china and store closets, back kitchen, pantry, cel lars, and all other requisite offices; PRINCIPAL AND SECONDARY STAIRCASES ; and on the chamber floor, five principal bed rooms, exceedingly airy and pleasant, four secondary bed rooms and two garrets. Nearly adjoining the house are, a green-house, walled garden, tool and seed house, excellent detached stables, forming a range of building, with six spacious standings, and harness-room in the centre, a double coich-honse at each end, and servant's room, lofts, and corn-bins ex tending over the whole. The House, Offices, and Stables are of the best descrip tion, no expense having been spared in their erection, and are fitted up in good taste as regards both appearance and comf)rt. THE PLEASURE AND ORNAMENTED GROUNDS about the house are well timbered, and sufficiently exten sive for the purposes of exercise and recreation, but at the same time afford capabilities for much further improvement. THE WOODS, in addition to the beauty and comfort which they afford as an appendage to the estate, possess in common with all others in this neighbourhood the advantage of being exempt from the payment of Tithes and Poor-rates, and are panicularly adapted for the preservation of Game, being for the most part detached from other coverts.

The resolutions to he proposed are exceedingly strong, but we cannot find room for them to-day. People were thronging to the meeting from all direc tions at two o'clock. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. UNION- HALL. Yesterday a mm, named Comfort, war brought up in custody, charged with attempting to cut his wife's throat. The complainant stated, that she had been married twenty-five years, and during that period she la.d had fifteen children by her husband. Within th e last few years his temper had undergone an extraordinary change for the worse, and be not only heat and maltreated her, but also threatened to be her murderer. He was on the point of carrying his threats into effect a few days ago by drawing a razor across her throat, had it not been for the inter ference of a neighbour. who seized it from his hand, and she escaped with a slight gash on her throat, the mark of which, she said, was still visible. The complainant added, that she was compelled to bring the present charge, other wise slaughter must ensue between them. The Magistrate asked her what cause she assigned for her husband's behaviour towards her? Mrs. Comfort-4 lay it all to that Duke of Wellington ; he will be the ruin of him. The Magistrate inquired what the Duke of Wellington had to do with her husband ? Mrs. Comfort—More the misfortune for me, my old man is never easy except when he is in company at that blackguard Duke of Welling ton's. There he is morning, noon, and night, and when he is away he is dreaming of that cursed Duke of Wel lington. Magistrate--My good woman, I don't understand you rightly. What do you mean by saying that you attrilatte your husband's bad treatment of you to the Duke of Wel. lington? Explain your'elf. I suppose your old man. as you call him, would not spend so much of his time at his Grace's, unless he were occupied in some capacity about the stables, or elsewhere. Mrs. Comfort—About the at Hes, your Worship! He has no employment in the stable ; I wish he had ; he is never out of the tap room. Magistrate—Oh, I understand you now ; then your husband, it appears, is fond of the ale-house ? Mrs. Comfort—He is in truth, Sir. Magistrate—And the house he frequents is called the Duke of Wellington ? Mrs. Comfort answered in the affirmative, and said, that if she could only sever the connexion between her husband and the Duke of Wellington she knew she should be happy once more. She never knew what a day's pleasure was since her old man associated at the Duke's. There was a spell on him ever since, and she was afraid that he would either cut his own or her throat before be stopped. The MAGISTRATE said the defendant ought to stop at home with his family, instead of spending all his substance at the Duke of Wellington. If he frequented the house as his wife stated, it would eventually bring down misfortune on him and all his family. The defendant contended that there were faults on both sides, and said his wife irritated him a good deal by drag ging him away by the scruff of the neck from the Duke of Wellington. He was fend of spending his evenings in good society : but his wife—and he could not tell the rea son—had a strong aversion to the Duke of Wellington, and this feeling had of late increased so much, that she could not bear to hear the name mentioned. The MAGISTRATE said it wa• no wonder for her to be dissatisfied with the Duke of 'Wellington, especially as her husband epent so much of his earnings there, and after wards ill-treated h's wife. The defendant was then held to bail for the assault, and in default was locked up.

CONSTANTINOPLE, MAY 14.—Th e Grand Seignor this day inspected a body of Janisaries, ih the gardens of the Seraglio, assisted by the Aga Pacha, the Cadi, Chief of the Eunuchs ;he who attends the bedchamber), ace, It i s sa id that his sublime Highness expressed his gratification at the ease with which the troops performed their different evolutions, and expressed an opinion that the new epaulet by giving an ap pearance of breadth, would supersede the necessity of hearts, and produce a due effect in bringing the refractory to obedience, The Cadi (in the true spirit of the lawyer Machiavel, who is said to have invented modern discipline,) suggested that the troops had better be kept out of sight until requirrd—to this end they might be conveniently sent to prison. Ills sublime Highness started at this proposal. Soldiers, he thought, would not brook captivity, but marines might be brought from the naval depot and lodged in the suburban gaol, as being more ac customed to confinement. Our modern Machiavel, the lawyer soldier, assented; the people from whom he sprang, were for gotten, as must always be the case where reckless extrava gance riots on limited means, and leaves public plunder the only resource against absolute want. The troops, it is said, would have been inspected on public parade, but there was a want of pluck in the proper quarter. THE PEERS AND THEIR FAMILIES. At the present moment, when the families and reciprocal ties of the higher Members of the Aristocracy are the subjects of so much inquiry and interest, theappearance of Mr. Burke's" Dic tionary of the Peerage and Baronetage," in a n ew and much amplified and improved edition, must be rega r d e d as particu larly opportune. The fund of minute Information now con_ centred in this work, with respect to all the famili es of most connexion, and completes it s elevated station in the kingdom, renders it in so me measure z c k b e ,i y o to ul th an ediniotri:g.ac cacie k s nw of o political onnexion, !edged utility as a book of reference. LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 17, me. Her MAJESTY, pursuant to notice, held a Draw , ng-room, this day, at two o'clock, which was bui :hinly attended. Earl GREY and his lady were recognized in the Park, proceeding to the Drawing-room by the crowd, who received them with loud huzzas. Yet a few hours, and the state of torturing sus. pense and anxiety in which the whole country has been placed for the last week, will be brought to a conclusion. This conclusion, we have every reason to believe, will be a fortunate one. If otherwise, then, we say, let the Anti-Reformers look well to the consequences! But they know better than to drive twenty-four millions of people to desperation. Though they may intrigue, and cajole, and lie, and menace, and protest, up to the latest possible mo ment, yet, when they find that their every mataeuvre is vain, they will surrender, one by one, all their strongest holds, and fly from the field of action with as much rapidity as they have entered on it. But this night—this memorable night—will decide everything. That which is now obscure will be - then made clear as the dawn, distrust w ill be converted into confidence, doubt into certainty. On the re sult of this night's discussion in Parliament hangs the mighty question of freedom or slavery through out Europe. There will be no half-and-half, no bit by-bit, no yes-and-no result. Earl GREY will either resume office, or he will no'. If he do, he will do so only on the express condition of being allowed to carry the Reform Bill entire and unmutilated into law, and thereby advancing the good cause throughout the continent ; if he do not, it will be because he is not partially, but wholly and entirely defeated. This defeat will be that of Reform and the people. For Lord GREY is now the people f, He represents in his own person the majesty of the British nation. He gives utterance in the House of Lords to the wishes, the feelings, the prayers, the remonstrances—and in case of need—the me naces of three kingdoms. Will he flinch —will he doubt—will he compro mise—will he descend, even an inch, from his pre sent proud preeminence ? Never. He will stand or fall with the people. His cause is theirs, their cause his. Fall do we say ? No, no. This, thank GOD, is impossible. We exhorted the country yesterday to return to its old habits of order and tranquillity, under the firm conviction that its triumph i 3 secure. We this day repeat the exhortation. But do we therefore exhort it to be negligent or indifferent ? God forbid It must still continue to watch, every man, at his post, for circumstances change their character with every passing hour; that which was clear yesterday is dark to-day; and though the Reform Bill must and shall pass, still the enemy have it in their power to protract the moment of victory. They cannot, it is true, vanquish, but they can at least retard; they cannot crush, but they can at least tease. But little need have the people of advice or exhorta tion from us. Their minds are unalterably made u p. They are rallying in all directions. They are gathering in masses, each of which is in itself an army. At Dublin—at Wolverhampton —at Lewes—at Brighton—(under the very nose of Royalty)--at Dumfries —at Glasgow —at Cheltenham—at Strat ford—Cranbrook—at St. Albun's—at Tring—at Plymouth—at Peterborough —at Salisbury —at Staf ford—at West-Bromwich--at St. Ives—at New castle —at Litchfield—at Loughborough—at Wo burn—at Melksham—at Perth —at Kettle—at Not tingham—at Pai,ley—at Falkirk—at Dundee—at Kirkaldy ;—at all these, and a hundred other places, that we cannot stop to particularize, the people are turning out by thousands.

AT a PUBLIC MEETING of the IN HABITANTS of the City of PERTII and Vi cinity thereof, called by the Lord Provost and Magistrates, held on the South Inch this day ; Upon the motion of ADAM ANDERSON, Esq. LL.D., the LORD PROVOST was unanimously called to the Chair. Thereafter, the following resolutions were moved, ►econded, and carried by acclamation : Moved by ROBERT Marrimvs, Esq. of Elmbank, Dean of Guild, secondtd by ROBERT GREIG, Esq., Convener of t' e Trades Ist. That this meeting have learned, with the deepest regret and alarm, the unexpected intelligence of the dissolution of the Ministry—an event which, in the present conjuncture of affairs, they regard as pregnant with the utmost danger to the country. Moved by JAMES DEWAR, Esq. bookseller, seconded by JOHN MoNTErni, EN. M. D. 2d. That an extensive Reform in the representation of the people, having in the opinion of the great body of the nation become absolutely necessary for the safety of the State. the Meeting decidedly express their conviction that Earl Grey and the other Members of his Majesty's late Government, have de. served the confident and lasting gratitude of the country, by their zealous and patriotic effbrts to carray through a measure of Reform, which has met with the almost unanimous appro bation of the country. Moved by JOHN BOWER, Esq. merchant, seconded by Bailie JOHN GRAHAM. :sl. That this Meeting do petition the Commons House of Parliament, most earnestly imploring that Honourable House at the present painful and alarming crisis, when the just expectations of the nation have been so grievously disappointed, and its own wise and deliberate decision so contemptuously set at nought, to exercise every power with which it is invested, to secure the prompt passing of the Reform measure into a law, uninutilated, and in the undiminished integrity of all its sub. ttantial and essential properties, either in principle or detail. M, ved by Mr. JOHN CREE, weaver, seconded by Mr. ARCHIBALD MACKENZIE, weaver, 4th. That a petition by the inhabitants of Perth and vicinity thereof, expressive of these resolutions, be forthwith presented to that Honourable House, and transmitted to Francis Jeffrey, Esq. Membet for this district of Burghs, for presentation. Moved by MALCOLM STEWART, Esq. of Athol Bank, se . confied by .101114 BALLANDINE, Esq. of Pitenbar, :ith. That these resolutions be published in the Perthshire Ad vertiser, Perth Courier, Scotsman, Glasgow Chronicle, and The Sun Newspapers. JOHN WRIGHT, Prese.. The Lord Provost having left the Chair, it was moved by John Clark, Esq. 31.1)., seconded by Wm. Arnott, E•y. and carried by acclamation— _ That the cordial 'thanks of this Meeting be given to his Lordship, for his able conduct in the Chair, and to his Lordship and the other Magistrates for their promptitude in calling the Meeting. ALEX. SCOTT, Secretary. rbe Ann than four millions of men were discussing the gam grand vital question, and coming to the same signi ... ficant conclusion ! Mark these signs of the times, Anti-Reformers, we beseech you, and above all, look well to your selves. Twice has the solemn voice of warning gone forth. Beware how you turn a deaf ear to the third and last ! The black-flag in the west, and the republican tri-colour in the north, are portents nei ther to he despised mor mistaken. ---t-,771tf---r:—*. So the new Police—only conceive, the new Police! —have been sounded with respect to their attachment to their cause of Anti-Reform and despotism. Yes, they have actually, it seems, been asked the question whether they would act against the people in favour of a Polignac Administration. The reply was just what might have been expected. Mrs. PARTINGTON stoutly refused to have any thing to do with staving off the Atlantic with her mop-pail ! In plainer words, an influential man among► the new police, de clared it as his fixed opinion, " that if they were required to be opposed to the people, the men could not be trusted." It is currently reported that a proposition has been made to Earl GREY to concede the point of the Metropolitan Members, in which case the Lords will support the Reform Bill. We understand, how• ever, that the majority of the House of Commons have come to the determination of not yielding up one iota of their measure. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE--(THIS DAY.

(Signed) WM. MACLEAN, Secretary THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, T WELYE O'CLOCK. The following is a private letter from St. Petersburgh, by the French mail this morning : " Marshal Moldier, atter waiting for fifteen days, was re ceived on Easter Monday by the Emperor of Russia, but was much mortified that the Emperor dial not inquire after Louis Phillippe, or any of the Royal Family of France ; the Marshal was also present at a grand review, which was attended by all the Foreign Ambassadors, with whom the Emperor conversed, but did not exchange one word with the French Marshal, who is now convinced that he is rather in an unpleasant situation." Port-au-Prince Papers to the 19th March have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house; but they are void of interest. A Lisbon mail has arri►ed. sailed on the 6th May. We do not hear as yet of any news by the above arrival. THE FUNDS We have it now confidently asserted in the City, that all has been adjusted between the King and Earl Grey,and that it is - the intention of the Duke of Wellington to retire from the field of battle, as well as some of his colleagues, and that the Reform Bill will make great progress through the House. We have seen a private letter from Amsterdam of the 14th instant, stating that on that evening they had received the ac count of the resignation of Earl Grey, and instead of its be. lag received there with enthusiasm, the general wish was, that Earl Grey's administration should continue, as it would be the cause of preventing riots and confusion in England, which would cause a general stagnation to commerce in all Europe. In consequence of the report being credited in the City that Earl Grey is again at the helm of the Government, the Funds have improved froth 84 1 4 to S4h for the account. Consols are now 847 i, for next time 551,',. HALF-PAST ONE. We can announce from good authority that at length the mar riage between King Leopold and the daughter of the King of France has been finally settled. Thts powerful alliance secures the throne of the King of Belgium, and bids defiance to the hos tile threats of the K ing of Holland ; therefore we are of an opi. nion that the ditticuties between the two parties will soon come to an amicable adjustment. Reports are in continual circulation in the City in regard to the final settlement of the Administration, of which nothing is as yet positively know*. But according to the general opinion of the well informed, Earl Grey resumes his office. Anxiety prevails for this night's debate, when, no doubt, we shall have some official communication on the subject. Consols have been fluctuating from &PA to E-1%; at present they are 84% 7i. 7 RREE O' CL 0 CK. Consols for Account 841 k. FOUR O'CLOCK CLOSING PRICES. Consols .

After several petitions, principally of a private nature, had been presented, and immediately on Lord ALTHOgr entering the House, Mr. - PAGET lose for the purpose of asking the Noble Lord whether the negotiation between his Majesty and Lord Grey had been finally settled. Lord ALTHORP said that in answer to the question of the Honourable Member he had undoubtedly stated on a former night that a co►nmunication had been made from his Majesty to Earl Grey, and that in consequence of that communicatio❑ he had lug. Bested the adjournment of the House to that day; although he was not prepared at the present to say, the arrangements in consequence of that communi cation were complete, yet he hoped that he had reason to state that the probability was that a most satisfactory arrangement would take place.—(Tremendous eheering.) In saying so, he trusted he need net claim to themselves the confidence of the House and the country, that they should not feel justified in continuing in an Adn►inistra tion unless they felt and saw that they bad every possible assurance of carrying this Reform 1111 without any ma terial alterations in its principles.—(Loud Cheers.) Lord EBRINGTON congratulated the House and the country on the announcement that had just been made by the Noble Lord, after which he could not bring him self to contemplate any disappointment in this part of the country. lie trusted, however, that any arrange ment tbat might be made would be done speedily. (LIFT SITTING.) The proprietor of a Kentish-town omnibus, called the " Adelaide," has, within the last day or two, taken the precaution to paste paper over the name for the present. The news of the resignation of the late Mi nistry arrived at Ware on Wednesday. Those of the inha bitants who were members of the Marquees of Salisbury's Yeo manry corps immediately assembled at the Saracen's Head Inn, when they determined to send in their resignation, which was despatched at midnight to Hatfield House. At the same time these bold meu declared that they should keep their swords whetted for other work than that of the Marquess of Salisbury, whether their services should be required at London, Man chester, or elsewhere. A black flag was hoisted on the steeple of Ware church. At a numerous meetitag or the Licensed Ap praisers' Western Society, held at the Duke of York, York street, St. Marylebone, on Tuesday evening, May 15, the mem bers came to the unanimous resolution not to distrain, con demn, or purchase, any property for assessed taxes, until the Reform Bill becomes the law to the satisfaction of the people. A townsman has left us a printed placard, which he says is posted on almost every house in Horsham.— The following is a correct copy :—" Notice ! No taxes will be paid at this Louse until the Reform Bill is passed unmutilated." —Brighton guardians. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—WEDNESDAY.--- TRIAL OF THE ALLEGED LEADERS OF THE FAST-DAY RIOTERS.-- William Benbow, William Lovett, John Watson (more im mediately implicated as the leaders), James Evans, Thoma,, Platt, and Charles Griffiths, were indicted for riotously assem bling on the Fast -day (the 21st of March last), contrary to the Statute. The prisoners were all acquitted, an announcement which was received with loud cheers from the people outside. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Times. ) Ws last night received the Paris Papers of Monday and Tuesday, and find that though they contain no specific news, their contents are not devoid of interest. From them it appears, that our French neighbours regard the late events in England as almost domestic occurrences,-.- that they consider the danger with which the Reform Bill was threatened as a danger not confined to England, -that they looked upon the spirit of freedom displayed by the members of our public-minded community as a spirit which to fleeted honour on every free people,-and that they esteemed the victory which the English were about to win or lase, as a victory won or lost for Europe and mankind. The firm and patriotic conduct of the House of Commons, in voting Lord Ebrington's resolu tions with so great a majority, seems particularly to have attracted their admiration ; and they appeal to the spe,ches delivered by several lion. Members on that oc casion, as worthy of the best days of English eloquence and independence. " Honour," exclaims one of them, "to the English House of Commons! It has understood the full extent of the duties which grave circumstances imposed. It has entered at once with firmness and mo deration on the only path of safety left for England--on th e only path which can save it from the chanced of a bloody revolution." The cordial congratulation and high eulogy of the French Journalist are but echoes from the shores of England. This burst of popular enthusiasm among mar country men,-the numerous meetings and immense assemblages whom political danger summoned to the defence of their menaced rights,-the unanimity of the Reformers in all parts of the country in support of "the Bill,"-the lan guage of reproof and defiance uttered with respect to the aristocratic a l faction, which, in their imagination, held the destinies of England in their hands,-the freedom used with the names even of the highest parsonages in the realm, when viewed as in league against the national inte rests, combined with the strictness with which, amid this mighty fermentation, public order has been preserved, ap pear to have astonished our less stanch, and more mob loving, neighbours. They seem not to have known the energies of the English mind, when acting on settled con victions, and strengthened by mutual sympathies. They could not calculate the force or value of that discipline of freedom which the English have acquired, by having ma naged their own affairs for centuries,-by being accustomed to arrange themselves under their local authorities or local elliefo,--by sneering in parish vestries-in com mon-halls-at county meetings-at political festivals!, and general elections-by executing judicial functions (like that of Jurymen), and combining in municipal corporations. They could not estimate the power of the press in this reading country, nor give their due weight to those means of rapid communication by which a politi cal b'ow struck in London to-day, calls together 100,000 men in Birmingham to-morrow, and resounds through the empire in GO hours with the quickness of a 'telegraphic despatch. Their wonder is therefore natural, at finding an organized legal resistance to the coup d'etat of the Tories over a great part of England, in less time than the news could hive travelled to the central towns of France. The importance of the present crisis in England they all attempt to estimate with a view to their own affairs ; but none of them overrate it. They seem as convinced as we are, that the enemies of all Reform at home must have be come the enerni sof all freedom abroad. They therefore apprehended, from the change of the English Ministry, plots for the overthrow of the French charmer, and for the . restoration of the exiled Bourbons. They looked forward to an absolutist crusade against the recently established constitutions of France and Belgium, headed by the Cos sacks and subsidized by England. Some of them, there fore, press under their Government the policy of meeting the danger with becoming promptitude, by despatching an army to Belgium and the Rhine, and by displaying the tri colour from the top of the Alps. It cannot scarcely be doubted, that whatever might be the immediate effect of the return of an English Tory Ministry on the internal order or external relations of France, it could not fail to be ultimately disastrous to the tranquillity of all recently established Governments in Europe, and consequently destructive of the general peace. As we mentioned yesterday, the partisans of Anti-Reform have taken every opportunity for the last eighteen months to abuse every change,-every proceeding-every measure which had any connexion with the revolution of July, 1830. They would, therefore, have connived at the in vasion of Belgium by the Dutch-they would have en couraged the Emperor of Austria and King of Prussi i in soopuptrhesearinngGtehrme Germany--.they th c e o y nst w it o u u ti l o d na h l a s v ta e itteswofh support from that allianc e by w hi c h th e R oman prov i nces eg aw -ern their d are to receive a new political organization; and the same men who in 1829 ordered a vessel of the young Queen of Portugal to be attacked on entering the chief harbour of her own island at Terceira, would have employed the British navy in opposing the expedition about to arrive tin the coast of Portugal, and have supported one of the moot odious tyrannies which ever oppressed and brutalized mankind. At any rate, all the liberals under the absolute governments of the Continent, who are now looking forward to England for the watch-word of free dom, arid who regard the Reform of our institutions as the pledge of political amelioration among themselves, would hare desisted from their laudable pursuit in despair, or have become a prey to their native despotisms. From all these evils we hope we are saved by the re :ection of the Duke of Wellington's services, and the con tinuance in power of a reforming Government. These papers contain scarcely any news north extract ing. We have only room to say, that the scientific world will hear with regret of the death of Cuvier, the greatest naturalist of his age.

BURIAL OF THE DEAD AT PA RI S.-A writer in one of the French Papers animadverted severely on the manner of performing the last rites of the dead since the cholera morbus reached Paris. The priests have a tariff of prices for their attendance kept in the vestries, in which the lowest is 25 francs, and the highest, perhaps, 10,000. The suns is, perhaps, disputed by a parent, who has lost a beloved child. I am very sorry, Monsieur," says the priest, " that we cannot arrange the matter, but the price is fixed ;go elsewhere—l defy you to find a brother more accommodating." The men em ployed in carrying the biers to the cemeteries toss the dead bodies about like bundles •f dirty linen. When the coffins arc too short, they thrust the bodies in by main force, making the bones crack. They occasionally strike the coffins, in the street, several blows of a hammer, to make them lie the closer on the bier. " What," says the writer, " must strangers think of these things ?" The remains of the late John Taylor, Esq., for many years proprietor and editor of ne Sun newspaper, were interred yesterday, in the burial ground of Bloomsbury church. Mr. Taylor had been connected with the public press of this metropolis for forty years, and was known, not only to a very extensive circle of acquaintances, but to the public in general, as a writer of considerable literary attainments. The amusing little poem of Monsieur TOtiSOn has given rise to a dramatic version, with which all play-goers are familiar ; and the stage is also indebted to Mr. Taylor for a great number of prologues, and epilogues, and occasional addresses. which he had a great f ac ility in producing. His affability in private life will long be remembered by those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance, and who are capable of appreciating the acquirements an 4 the principles of a gentleman. OLD WHITE-LION TA VERN, GREAT YAlt• sior rit.—At the above tavern on Tuesday morning a party sembled, and on receiving The Sun newspaper announcing the " recall of Earl Grey," it was proposed by Mr. John Shelly Clarke, seconded by Messrs. James Conyards and James Drake, and carried unanimously, that a subscription purse should be im mediately raised, to defray the expense of setting out .the bells in expression of their patriotic spirit, and to commemorate the glorious event; which have been done accordingly. PERSEVERANCE.—" I recollect," says Sir Jonah Barrington, " in Queen's County, to have seen a Mr. Clerk, who had been a working carpenter, and when making a bench for the session justices at the Court-house, was laughed at for taking peculiar pains in planing and smoothing the seat of it. He smilingly observed, that he did so 'to make it easy for himself,' as he was resolved he would never die till he had a right to sit thereupon , and he kept his word. He was an in dustrious man—honest, respectable, and kind-hearted. He succeeded in all his efforts to accumulate an independence ; he did accumulate it, and uprightly. His character kept-pace trate upon that very bench th at he sawed and planed. " with the increase of his p roperty, and he lived to sit as a magic NCI :7 4 !%,
