Religious intolerance seems to be the weapon with which the enemies of the popular movementwillen deavour to conquer the Liberal candidates. Dis tinctly and emphatically we would warn them that that welpon will prove nothing better than a dagger of lath. The bait thrown out to the multi tude savours not more sweetly than the monster CALIBAN--" it bath an ancient and a fish like smell." "An ounce of civet, good apothecary !" Of all electioneering humbugs, that in which a political faction strives to come off victorious btai ing a sec tarian clamour is the arrantest. Nothing is so enormously hypocritical in purpose, so barefaced in protestation, so scurriilous in abuse, or so slanderous in s • -def !" e, as that spirit of p artisanship which disguises its own preternatural immorality under the garb of Religion, But effective as this system was at one time from the consummate skill with whi ch it was carried into operation,now-a-Y;. " The lacquer has worn min of common sense trembles at it off, the cloak is threadbare, the cl traps that were once revered as the utterances of inspirati on are now derided as the babbling% of idiotcy, or the fustian of cant. panegyristsan habitual Slander, we have already said,i cha racteristic of these politicalof sanctity. We speak not at hazard or at random. No, re peat it--slander is one of their habitual w chsrac e t er istics. Sir WILLIAM NIOLEswo RTH appears befo r e the electors of Southwark as an advocate of civil and religious liberty ; he is attacked as an Infidel. A copy of HoanES— honest old syllogistic HonBE3, of Malmesbury, one of the most astute of our philosophical thinkers—is pulled out of Borne very orthodox gentleman's bookcase, edited years ago by Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH, therefore Sir Wit.Lia.m Mot.Eswortill is accused of being an Infid 6ll Mr. ROEBUCK has battled bravely for the people upon the same principles of civil and religious liberty d ur i ng some fifteen Alr.

But Mr. Roasucs t does, and therefore Mr. ROEBUCK is aspersed as a ; Free-thinker The Right Hon. Baronet the Member I for Tamworth deems it advisable that there should be a continued endowment to Maynooth, in order that the principal seminary of a portion of the United Kingdoms so important as Ireland, should have at least some pretensions to decency, where upon the Right Hon. Baronet is pronounced to be a Papist! Not that he is less assiduous in his attend ance at church on Sundays, not that he evinces any partiality for rosaries or relics : no, Sir ROBERT is solicitous that the students in a national college shall no longer pig together three in a bed, that its gravel walks shall be weeded, and its windows glazed other wise than (in the Milesian fashion) with rags anti copy-books; and therefore Sir ROBERT PEEL is scoffed at as a Papist ! Again we protest that abuse, and slander, and scurrillity, and anything, and everything but argument, are the habitual charac teristics of that High-Church, high-pressure, double action, break-neck class of politicians, who are mus tering their whole strength, both of lungs and lying, for the ensuing elections. Heartily are we rejoiced to see that, in several constituencies, the Liberal electors are taking their antagonists at their own weapons Against the ex tremes of religious intolerance are being opposed the extremes of religious tolerance. This is precisely as it should be. We are told that none should be mem bers of the new Parliament but men who put such and such a construction on the language of Revelation, and who are disposed rather to applaud than otherwise the principles of that inexorable loyalty to creed which has at different periods endeavoured to boil men into the true faith, or roast them out of the wrong one. If we were selecting priests that might be rational ; but we are selecting legislators London is about to evince its freedom from, or its subjection to, these odious laws of religious intolerance by the conduct pursued by its electors towards one of the four Liberal candidates, Baron L. ROTHSCHILD This election will not merely indicate the views of the metropolitan constituency upon the question of " Jewish disabilities," but it will go very far to in fluence the tone of the provincial elections generally. However—should the " No Popery" candidates, by some extraordinary fatality, form the majority in the new Parliament, we shall certainly have the Bishops " scrambling over the tiles " again, as described by Mr. MACAULAY. We do not think that the• House was on Wednes day made fully acquainted with the reasons for the adoption of the clause proposed by Mr. G. A. HA MILTON to be inserted in the Bankruptcy and Insol vency Bill. The effect of that clause was, that when ever the terms barrister or attorney were used in th« Bill, they should mean either English or Irish bar- risters or attorneys. In the very short discussio which took place thereon the principle involved i this suggestion was treated as if it had been entirel3 new, and never hitherto been recognised or sanctioned by the Legislature. It seemed as if a desire wa: entertained to confer new privileges on Irish legal practitioners, and it was not made knows to tht House that by this very Bill offices to which Irist. barristers are now eligible are abolished, and their duties transferred to other courts, perhaps the only ones in the kingdom in which the members of th. Irish bar are excluded from holding office. Tht ground of opposition stated by the Attorney- General, was merely that the question deserved more extended consideration and discussion that could be given to it at the present time ; while Mr. HENLEY said, that if the principle of the clause was to be adopted, it should be done generally, and not with regard to the present Bill alone. None of tht parties seemed aware of the Act, that by an Act passed in the year 1841 (5 Vic., c. 5, s. 65,) it is enacted, " that in the construction of this Act, and 01 every other Act heretofore passed, relating to th. nomination or appointment to any office or employ ment, the expression barrister-at law,' or barrister,' shall mean a barrister-at-law called to the bar either in England or Ireland, except where it is otherwis. expressly provided." Under this statute, therefore, Inernbers of the Irish bar were duly qualified tt oe appointed to any of the offices abolished the present Bill, and generally to any judicial off ct existing previous to the passing thereof, unless somt special limitation existed to their exclusion. This statute, however, only related to courts which wert in existence at the time of its enactment. It wont• appear to have been forgotten, or at least was neither noticed or attended to, at the time when the Bill fo the creation of the new County Courts was pendink before the Legislature. There was, therefore, no in terpretation clause to declare the meaning of th• term " barriaer-at-law," or how far it should be ex tended. Whether that omission is fatal to the clair. of the Irish bar, or whether a statute passed by united Legislature, using the term " barrister-at-law ' without any explanation or limitation whatever, can 1, considered to apply to the barristers called to the Ix, in one of the United Kingdoms only, and to the ex elusion of the other, we are not now prepared t state. it would, at the first view, appear to us that sue could not be the case, and that Irish barristers mu, be eligible to appointments under that Act als. Whatever might be the ultimate decision on th., question, however, any doubt must operate as inju riously to the pro , pects of an Irish barrister as if li were specially exclu W : it would, therefore, he de sirable that some conclusion should be arrived that would set the question at rest, and declare th true construction of the statute. The argument used by Mr. J. STUART was si narrow and illiberal in its character, so much opposed to the best interests of both countries which will he greatly promoted by the abolition of evt ry un::eccssary difference and distinction, an. so calculated to excite the anger of the Irish peoph and to revive the clamour for repeal which has hap pily decreased, and we trust may ultimately be alto gather abandoned, owing to a just appreciation of out conduct during the past year, that we cannot refraii from visiting it with our most unqualified censure He said " that the County Courts were essential].) English courts, and, in order to be resorted to bear ficially by the public, the business should natural!) be conducted by English officers." This is practically a statement that Irishmen cannot be entru-ted to ac in England or for the English. It is wholly opposed to that which has been adopted, as well by the late as the present Premier, as the policy henceforward to he adopted towards the sister kingdom, viz., " that Ireland is to he placed on terms of perfect equality with .England in every civil, political, and inur , icipal institution. It aims a deadly blow at the first principle of the real union between the countries, by declaring that the natives of one should not he entrusted with any power with respect to the other. Does Mr. STUART forget that in her greatest emergency England selected an Irishman to com mand her armies, and to conduct the gigantic opera tions on which the fate of the United Kingdoms were dependent ? aad the honours so deservedly bestowed upon the Duke of WELLINGTON attest that that con. Hence was not misplaced. How many Irishmen have been appointed to the highest and most im portant offices of s t a te ; and has there been any well founded reason to regret their elevation ? As well might he say that an Irishman representing an Irish constituency should not be appointed to a seat in the Cabinet or a place in the Ministry. We shall, probably, on a future occasion, urge the reasons that render it so desirable .that there should be that inti mate connexion between the English and Irish bars \t t was Lsc'roinrAhmrdtteciLreLd. by that eminent leg al re former, Letters from Bologn a rising the formation of a national hit the P.P E had issued of oon t a h l e g B u :h rd i , n o s n t . t beF announce rench two decrees, the one autho principle, throughout his ituftins,. and the other to the sanctioning the estahli,hinenn't railroads. Those two measures had produced the ° invited had repaired enthusiasm in Home ; the entire population greatest Quirinal to express its gratitude toaiitihuer''l.Polilrye(l popular ESTI, Father, and at night the whole city was dinner, to which the Austrian Amba=sarnduirnahEtaeEddßi Cardinals LAMBRUSCHINI, VANICELLI, &c., on the 2d. was prevented by a e m. de monstration. The people assembled before th a e r hussy, crying, " Down with Austria! Death to LAMBECUSCHINI, and to the enemies of the Pops!" "Viva Pius IX. alone!" The Transteverinos, it ap pears, were excited in the highest degree against Cardinal LAMBIWSCHINI, whom they threatened to throw ir.to the Tiber. Thc Cardir.al, howevar, effected his escape, and had not been heard of for some days. Cardinal MACCHI was so terrified by the cries of the people on that night, that he sent off his nephew to a neighbouring town with all his valuable property. Father VENTURA and the popular leader, CICKRUACCHIO, had fortunately interfered, and suc ceeded in allaying the effervescence. Several Aus trian couriers coming from Rome had lately passed through Bologna. At Parma and Lucca much ex citement prevailed, and occasional collisions took place between the population and the troops. We learn, by a letter from Warsaw of the 6th, that the Emperor of RUSSIA has just issued a decree, fixing the legal rate of interest at 5 per cent. per annum, and declaring that any person accepting a higher interest for any cause whatever, or in any way, shall fur the first offence be condemned to a fine three times greater than the sum lent ; for the second offence, to an imprisonment of from ten to twelve years ; and for the third, to exile in Siberia. Another Imperial decree forbids landowners, under pain of similar penalties, to sell by time bargains other pro, ducts than those of their own lands, or to sell a larger quantity than their lands ordinarily yield. A letter from St. Petersburgh of the 4th says " Immense preparations are being made in the Caucasian provinces for the approaching campaign against the mountaineers. The army which is to act against them will be of nearly 150,000 men. We are assured that, as soon as the EMPEROR shall be perfectly recovered from the sickness with which ne is at present afflicted, he will place himself at the head of this army." Madrid papers of the 9th have arrived. The Gaceta publishes a decree by the QUEEN con ferring the Grand Cross of the Royal. and Military order of St. Ferdinand on Generals SANTIAGO, MENDEZ VIGO, and NOZZAIGAILAY, as " a proof of her satisfaction for the manner in which they had contri buted to the pacification of the kingdom of Portugal, and the consolidation of the constitutional throne of her beloved ally and cousin, her Most Faithful MAJESTY." It is rumoured that a Carlist rising is about to take place in Navarre, under the orders of General ELIo. The Faro states that there is a serious difference between the Government and General CONCHA, on account of sufficient funds not having been placed at his disposal to pay his troops. MADRID BOLSA, JULY 9.—The Three per Cents. were lone at 2q for cash ; the Five per Cents. at 17i ; the Debt without interest, a* si. We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. On Tuesday the proceedings in the case of General CUBIERES and his co-accused were, with the excep tion of the pronouncing of judgment by the Court, brought to a conclusion. The following were the •equisitions made to the Court by the Procureur- General : " Considering that there does not result from the nearing sufficient proof of swindling or attempt to swin le against Amedee Louis Dr-spans Cub. 4 'es, we require hat it will please the Court to acquit him on this part if the accusation ; " Considering that it does result from the hearing that here exists against Amecel Louis Despans-Cubiares, e nd Marie Nicholas Philippe Auguste Parmenrier, suffi ient proof of their having corrupted, by offers, gifts, anti resunts, tie Minister of Public Works, in order to o h - Sin the concession of a mine of rock sa lt ; --- " Considering that it results from the hearing that nere exists against J. B. Teste sufficient proof of his laving, while Minister of Public Works, accepted offers .iid received gifts and presents, to do an act within his unctions, for which he was not entitled to any fee or reward; " Crimes provided for by Articles 177, 179, 34, and ;5, of the penal code; " We require that it will please the Court to declare, hat Amedee Louis Despans-Cubieres, Marie Nicholas Earmentier, and J. B. Teste, are guilty of the above entioned crimes, and apply to them the penalties in hered by the above cited articles." The Court then adjourned and re-assembled on bVednesday morning. The Peers were deliberating vith closed doors as to the verdict and sentence, when he post left on Wednesday. The Constitutionnel says, the punishment against iublic functionaries taking a bribe for any act even ust in itself is civil degradation and a fine double the ►mount of the sum received as a bribe. The same mnishment is awarded against persons bribing, but vhen the attempt to bribe is not successful the pu- ,ishment is an imprisonment of from three to six .ionths and a tine of from 100 f. to 300 f. Civil de radation consists in the exclusion from public func i,ins, the loss of the right of voting or being elected, ind in general all civil and political rights, and that ,f wearing any decoration. It also carries with it he incapacity of giving evidence upon oath, of taking ,art in certain legal acts, and exclusion from the any and national guard, &c. M. CH. TESTE, the son of the accused Minister has esigned the office he held of Councillor Referendary t the Court of Accounts, and has ceased to be a •lember of the Chamber of Deputies. We find the following relative to M. TESTE in the Teste quitted the sitting of the Court of Peers on .onday, followed by an usher and accompanied by nis tinsel and his son, shaken, but not depressed in ppearance, and without anything leading to the idea tat he entertained any sinister project.. When h. ,ached the prison of the Luxembourg, he bowed tinily to the director, and ordered dinner to be rued, sending his son to dine in the Rue de the. You may tell your mo , her,' eaid he, that the game has become too difficult for me; 1 innot continue to play it out.' He then sat down to tole with hi: counsel. The meal was a silent and sad te; M. Teste, v. ho in general reaoily discussed his idea. defence, said almost nothing. About half past seven I'aillet, appearing tatigued with the emotions of the Test.- said to him, • You are weary; go home, we .all see each other in the morning.' He conver,ed for me time with M. I)ehaut, the other counsel, who .en withdrew, it being about eight o'clock. His soil fterwards rt, turned to wish lout good night, ar.d after .a withdrawal, at a quarter to nine, the attempt at tecide was made. It is to be remarked that neither etore nor atter the attempt did M. Teste for a single nstant lose his apparent calm. One of the principal naployis of the Chamber of Peers remained during the tight in the ram!) with him. M. Teste passed the night reading end conversing with compani o n. Hi s otimated and picturesque language appeared to borrow , sort of eloquence trout the trial, which he had g me tirough during the day. He spoke of his proscribed ~nd wandering intamy, and of the sort of fatality which, )e said, appeared to have rested on him since his birth. • Am I then a wretch,' he said to himself, 'I, who never !ward a good action narrated without my heart throb ,ring! Ah, fatality! fatality!' My poor brother,' he Ldded, speaking of General Teste, 'he will no t aga i n Lppear there, pointing to the Chamber of Peers, and I snail be the cause!' It is a , serted that, on this occasion, U. Teste had again found the accents of that animated Auquence which was kept i4ithin bounds at the bar, but ,hich could not be extinguished; the eloquence which Manuel admired so much, and which in other times would have made him a tribune of the people." Notwithstanding these repeated exposures of the gross corruption which is, the foundation of the Iynastic s)stem, the founder of the system seems determined to endeavour to carry it out coute qui coute. The Union Monarchique says—" The nomination of the Duke d'Aumale to the post of Governor-General of Algeria ha• been decidedly determined on at one of the last Cabinet Councils at Neuilly. M. Guizot, it is said, vainly endeavoured to put forward some timid ob j- cum,* on the propriety of this choice, but the opinion of the Minister of Foreign Affairs soon gave way before the manifest expression of an all-powerful will, and to b t t n y a cb b ee o l df e t o . ur t en h t e ti that hl t e C a i e l which in this circumstance the eager advice of the ma s seen:dct nomination bti a elh i r f e d no i co t r i ht o at n bhm a ee l b ebo f roffiesl:eci officially Atli yn I t a allnoipro ov e sep close September of nwf of g events the Governor-General will not proceed to his pos f ' October. 'The realisation of the project of ' creating in tavour of the Duke d'Aumale a vice-roy ally in our pos sessions in Africa is, it is said, postponed to next year." In the same journal we find the following announce ment : " The sudden and unexpected journey of King Leopold of Belgium to Paris has given rise to a report which we repeat with all due reserve, although we have many reasons to consider it well founded. It appears that, frightened and annoyed at the incessant embarrassments occasioned to him by the internal administration of his kingdom, Leopold thought proper, during his last visit to London, to commu nicate to the En g lish Ministr y hi s fit in determination to abdicate the Crown in favour of his son. The English Cabinet, as may be easily sup posed, energetically combated that project , the first re sult of which would be to secure the regency to the mother of the young Prince—that is, to a princess of the family of Orleans. During his sojourn in London, Leopold appeared to yield to the objections made by the English Cabinet, but immediately on his return to Bru•sels he was again assailed with the cares of royalty. During the last few days all those who approached the nsLnarch could read on his countenance the expression of the most profound grief. It was under those circum stances that Leopold resolved to proceed to Paris for the purpose of framing, in conjunction with his father-in law. a Regency Bill in favour of the eldest daughter of Louis Philippe." Algiers, Spain, and Belgium are, however, not enough to satisfy the ambition of the dynasty. It would fain give a monarch to &publican America. The Presse, the organ of CHRISTINA, and the Palace, as distinguished from the Parliamentary faction says— General Flores, who is only just returned from Bel gium, is making preparations for a voyage to America. He will go direct for Venezuela, and he will be entirely alone, relying upon the goodness of the cause he is about to sustain, the good faith of his own view, and the right disposition of his fellow-citizens. Thus are contradicted the calumnies to winch his enemies have resorted, in order to mislead public opinion, and surprise the good faith of some of the American Governments." Should FLORES succeed he will be soon followed by CHRISTINA, RIANZARES, and their family; but although FLORES may have forgotten the fate of ITITRBIDE, the probability is that the Venezuelans have not.

(From The Sun of Last Night.) The Cotton market at . Liverpool )esterday was firm. Sales 9.000 bales Amerwan sort, were a shade higher, and 5,000 bales sold at 614. to 71d. per lb. ; 2,000 bales Surat realised 4id. to 54d. per lb.—Railway shares were better, and prices in some instances were higher. Not much was done. Accent, is from Odessa state that the weather had been beautiful there up to the 25th ult., the rain and sunshine having alternated so as to brine everything to the highest state of perfection. In New Russia and Bess arabia also the temperature was favourable. By the end of June the sto , k of grain was expected to amount to 1,000,000 tschetwerts, and there was not much activity in the trade looked for during the ensuing two or three weeks. The Money Market is rather easier, but until the heavy railway calls of the present month are over, there may not he any material change. In Ireland the rate of discounts has been lowered by the leading banks, and on the Continent there seems to be no scarcity of money. The exchange, under date of Tuesday, from Ham burgh comes over at 13.5 on London, being 4 lower, and the price of gold was 4314. The Corn Market is reported to be steady. This being settling day in the Funds, Consols have been affected by the state of the Account. They touched 891, but are now down again to 884, one or two sales having been pressed. Consols for the August account have been 894 to 89k. Bank Stock is rather dull, at 195. The New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents. have been 914 4, and the Three per Cents. 1394 Exche quer-bilis have been marked 9s. to 13s. premium. The Spanish bondholders' meeting yesterday did not " go off" in the way anticipated by some of the specu lators, although it is satisfactory to find that with the bulk of the creditors a mere temporary advance is not the object aimed at or desired, but rather an arrange. ment that promises permanent advantage. The bond holders may rest assured that they gain nothing by a mere cancelling of old bonds. On the contrary, they expose themselves t o renewe d loss, and as to the stock rising in price und er a l arg e additional issue, it is mere moonshine, how ever some parties may delude them selves with the hope. The Spanish Government is well able to pay something, and can as well pay it upon the old bonds as the new. The Three per Cents. have been at 314. The Five per Cents. are nominally 214 to 22. In Mexican there have been no bargains. Shares are buoyant again. ONE CLOSING O'CLOCK. PRI EN Bank Stock .. •• ' • 1 . 5 5 n 5 , , 19 .1. 2 •• .• •• •• •"hree pet Cent.

THE BOSJESMANS, OR BUSH PEOPLEf OF AFRICA.- The line of demwention between man and the I,,wer order of animals is very slight indeed: the American Savage, the Hin. 00, the Aborigines of Australia, and the .\f teat) Bushman, are all specimens of this distinc tion, but fvom their paucity of numbers the Bosjesmana are the most extraordinary. Even in their own country they are comparatively curi sities of humanity; they are dying year atter year, and the specimens now exhibiting are the first, and probably the last of that diminished and diminishirg species whom we shall see. Intelligence they do possess to a certain extent, but it is the result o!' instinct rather than of reason. They remain in this country hut a very short time longer, and the naturalist, as well as the phdisopher, must look on them with in terrst. They have an infant with them which will soon be admitted into the pale of the Christian Church by the solemn Sticr,ment of Baptism. During the present week they have been visited by the following distin guished individuals :—Mr. Baron Parke, 'Sir Robert Peel and family; Lord anti Lady Stanley, Prince Louis Napoleon, Vi-count and Viscountess Comber', ere, an Duke of Newcastle and the Ladies Clinton, Mtircrisi a Northampton.

A public meeting of the house proprietors and tenant of the above district was held in the large room of the Jolly Farmers, Southgate-road, last night, to take into con sideration, and endeavour to provide a remedy, for the impassable state of the roads and footpaths during winter. It is well known tha- this is unlike any other district of London, there not being a piece of pavement laid down on any part of it, and the miry state of the roads in winter is such, that it is absolutely daegerous for delicate persons to venture out : property is thereby much depreciated, while the rates are equally high with those places where the comfort of flag pavement is ex perienced. The chair was taken, at half- past eight o'clock, by W. R, Ives, Esq., of Doctors' Commons, who, in a brilliant and flcible speech, stated the object of the meeting, and was ably followed by Messrs. Matson, Pot ter, Pritchard, and others, and a imputation to the High way Board was appointed, to represent the necessity of due attention to the interests of this now important portion of the parish of St. John's, Hackney. A vote of thanks to the chairman, and Mr. Hawkins, the secre tary, was proposed and seconded, and the meeting brok , up at 10 P.M. There is at present in the course of erection in Albion square a very handsome edifice, in tend, d for a Literary and Scientific Institution, .m which will be lecture and class rooms, and library of circula tion; such has been much wanted , and it is expected to be opened in September. It has been the subject of con versation that parties building houses in this parish must have ransacked the regions of fancy and imagination, MS , . sacred and profane history, in search of names for their various residences; instead of at once naming the street and numbering it from one and upwards, each brick erection is designated with some peculiar name. inclination acco rding to the fancy and of the proprietor, so that a stranger to the neighbourhood finds it a matter of no little difficulty to find the house, it. the " villa" of his friends. It is some time before the postmen be come familiarised to the beat. Great excitement was caused on the sth in the peaceable town of Ai. A man, named Viet , r Moreau, had long entertained a violent hatred agairst his brother Gu-tave, but it was hop-d that his ha-red had died away during the period he had served in the army. On his return to Epernay, however, he showed that his senti ments had undergone no change; and he actually bought two pistols, powder, and shot with the remainder of a sum of money which his brother had given him, most of which he had spent in debauchery. He then went to Al, it is believed, with the firm intention of killing his brother. Luckily he did not find him at home. He then went to several cafes, and drank a great many glasses of liquor, after which he proceeded to the him-, of an uncle and aunt. He burst into the room, and, without any salutation, said he was hungry. His aunt invited him to eat, and whil-t doing so, an old master of his, named Roger, came in, and knowing the violent di-- position in which he was, tried to calm him. " What do you want here ? " cried the man; " begone I " and then added, "I must put an end to this; I must kill you !" At the same moment he tot,k a pistol, and fired it at his uncle and aunt, but without touching them. M. Roger again extreated him to be calm, but the prism -r cried out, " Let me alone, or look to your self!" and he immediately fired the other pistol at him. Fortunately he was not injured, and an alarm being h s: :u v s e e ra , L .r,, g individuals u,,rd.d appeared, rgaeinvnde.frae),rlltlw't'hicetrigi:ds'nudeirfeinritellsntaltihn!gendarmes. " No!" said the man, "and if you advance you are dead!" As he spoke he presented the pistol, which he had re loaded. "Fire. then," said the gendarme, " out take notice," he added, as he drew his .word," that it you miss me I will run you through the hotly!" and turning to the people, he couraaeonsly said, " Comrades, if you tae me tall, never mind, but seize the man, to prevent him doing more m ischief." The man immediately snapped the trigger of a pistol, but it dashed in the pan. In the twirki.rig of an eye he presented another pistol, but he checked him self, and said, " Why should I fire on you? I ht•ar you no malke, and you only do your duty. Look th. re!" and he dischargt d the pistol at the ceiling. The gen darme thou rushed in and secured Ina.. 13 sides powder and shot, a poniard was found in his piss-ssi Such was the cold brutality of the wre en, that, i.fter tiring at his uncle and aunt and M. Roger, he fined his pine with tobacco, and tranquilly smoked it.—Galignani.

LITERATURE. 7'H F. !; .R 1' RE VI EW. No. CL XL Not the icediete a rti c le i n point of position, but certtiii , ly the lea , lieg article in paint of ability, among the nice papers contained in the hundred and sixty" first number of the Qitait , rly Review, is the one en titled " Pant agi tielism." Much erudition is scattered through the contribution, but its excellence is frit tered away by the entire absence of arrangement, ona the rather doubtful purpose of the arguments. To an ordinary reviewer it would be a rath er embarassing tiling to have to compile article complete, and one in itself upon the triple theme of the poi !ical caricatures by IL 13 '' the Sartor Raaartus" of Thomas Carlyle, and the " Doctor" of Robert Soutl - ley. Yet upon this literary and pictorial tripod, as it were, has the QuarterlY Reviewer raisu-d a very able, and, in many respects, elaborate disquisition. The incongruity, or more strictly speakima, the want of unity in his subject, has however, deteriorated so from from the intrinsic merit of his compilation, as to render it at tirres diffuse and disconnected. The writer sets out by stating that his object, Vile can be said to have one at all of a definite character, is to afford illustrati ons of a style of composition which he distinguishes by the generic title of Pantagruelistic. Every ne e who is a lover of the cis comica has read, of course , Rabelais, or it he has not, he deserves to be—like one . of the monks depicted by that prince of jesters--' kicked to death in a desert. Every lover of the vi s camica, therefore, is at once familiar with the mean: ing of the term Paulagruelistie, a word compounded of iraaara, which in the Greek signitieth all, and gril e4 which in the Arabic signitieth thirsty. For POT gruel, according to the authority of the inc om p arsb ! author of " Garg.rioutt," was born on a certain Fi l ; day, when the people were all at their orisons, an" great drops of water exuded from the grou nd like a sweat, which, when the observers had collected all, drunk they found to be salt and brackish as th e brie of the sea : wherefore the father of Pantagruele christened him as a commemoration of the time of birth when all were thir. , ty. Rabelais further plains the signitieatton of Pantagruelism, deciaringli to he "a sort of high spirits worked up in despite 0 0 accidents—ready to di ink too if you will, " or as tbrt reviewer, yet more distinctly expresses it "that so of gaiety which a moderate allowance of good oriee is calculated to produce ;in plain English —a ten t; dency to skylat king !" Plain English al e we opine, language which Mr. Roebuck would call t . vernacular. From the assertion that although Rahe l f r created the expression irays.a. gruelisrn, he Was I" from being the creator of the thing irawra grueli4ll4 the reviewer dashes off into an episodical eulogie. upon Aristophanes. And in the course of OS, panegyric is a passage to which we would in a patios!' manner direct the attention of the Royal Academia, DANIEL MACLISE, containing, as it does, a sggi; tion pregnant with opportunities for the maniti!... tion of his very great artistic genius. "As we ‘ll-0° not hope to see Aristophanes restored to the etog e t 4f says the reviewer, though Sophocles has, 61 be a fashion, resumed his buskins, we should .es truly glad to see the next best thing—a 5e,,110," of illustrations of his comedies — say the "Knigli el or the " Peace"—by an artist of real skill and t h e iso humour; he must be a better draughtsm an t Ritzsch, and less formal than Flaxman ; he must it ; the fun of a caracaturist, and the feelings of a P o f like H.B , he must be able to preserve an identittiel face in the leading characters, but he must be 0./l i at the same time, to sport with an unlimited var,,, le • t of attitudes and groupings. " There is an among us," continues the reviewer, " often mistakes his own calling, but who e do all this—Maclise ; and if it were staffdoper Aristophanes would be restored to the only if which he could occupy in the nineteenth centUrliii in the words of Challoner, let Mr. Maclise "cc well on't." A sense of justice prompts us to T ics the following very forcible and specious vindie s ,do of Aristophanes, in regard to his condu ct to Socrates. Still we must premise the q uotatinel o - rjs saying that the writer is guilty of almost as °3 jor. blasphemy in his remarks about Socrates, as he to le putes with such flippancy to Rousseau. T he , v g ,b - lo• of Socrates, however, defies all aspersion an d "so' quy—Socrates the wises of the sages of antiquitr;sto crates the greatest of all pagan philosophers a Christian in principle, in the midst of licent 2 ness and polythei-m Re fi t ' "It is i mpo ssible," . proceeds the Quarterly ii s• "to understand the death of Socrates, w it `tbich -trict reference to the history of the tim es in " • he lived."

As for Euripides 50.. ,rates, they were considered as fellow-worker S l'; 0 0 inovement for the exaltation of the middle class, anti e , mire Sophists (See Aristtiph. Ban rimarch. p. 21). Aristophanes was the great sou_o xception to this tendency on the part of litei.e!reyl;ol at Athens ; hence his antagonism to Euript_ti Socrates, who, although they would never have 1 0 1 ,700 the establishment of a pure eligarehy, and were . 771, and. lEscjoory for the 5,000 than for the 400 or the 30, had give 'eyse 'ler indicatiens than any others of their wish to plavot xa.Xoo‘27cd'.'il above the Demos.
