The Capital of the Bank is 5,000,0001. sterling, in 50,000 Shares of 1001. each ; Thirty Thousand of these Shares are in the hands of the Proprietors. The sum of 201. has been paid on each Share, so that the actual paid-up Capital is 600,000/. This presents the most perfect security to the public, and gives the Bank the most ample means for affording to its Customers every reasonable accommodation. The Bank has above eight hundred Partners, whose names are published with the Annual Report of the Directors. The advantage obtained by a Joint Stock Proprietary is, that those Partners who are also Customers to the Bank, participate in the profits made by their own Accounts. Current Accounts are received on the same principles as those observed by the London Bankers. Every person connected with the Establishment signs a Declaration of secrecy as to the Accounts of Individuals. No Christmas Boxes or other Gra tuities are allowed to be taken by the Officers of the Bank. Parties who are desirous of having Current Accounts, with out being under the necessity of keeping a Balance, are charged a small Commission, proport onate to the amount of their Transactions. This extends the advantage of a Banking Ac count to parties having moderate Incomes, or who in the course of their Business find ample employment for their Ca pital. Sums from 10/. to 1,009/. are received on Deposit, and Inte rest allowed at the rate of 2 per cent.., and they are at all times re-payabie upon demand, without notice. For these sums, Receipts are granted, called Deposit Receipts. By al lowing Interest for small sures, the b. edit of the Dupo,it Sys tem, as practised in Scotland, is extended to all classes of the Community. Sums of 1 0001. and upwards, are also received on Deposit Receipts, upon such Terms as may be agreed upon, with regard to the rate of Interest, and the time of Repayment. Trus tees and others who have money which they cannot immediately employ, may thus obtain an Interest for it, until an opportunity occurs for its permanent investment. Parties may lodge money upon an Interest Account who have no Current Account, and those who have t urren: Accounts, may transfer any portion of their Balance to an Interest Account. The Bank takes thr agency of Joint Stock Banks, Private Bankers, and tithe: parties residing at a distance. By order of the Board, JAMES WILLIAM GILBA RT, General Manager. London, Sept. 30, 840.

Colonel THOMPSON' has of late taught us to try the Church and try the priesthood by their own rules. A write r in the Quarter'y Review, the au thor of the recommendation to raze half the metro- Tolis, speaking with all the unction of a priest, y s— " If she be be so, we may understand how phi- J o ophv inseparably co nnected with art , and espe cially with poetry ; and how much it owes to a poet, iv i l o has t aug h t men to look at nature in its is making such great claims on the nation, it seems proper to place these inconsistences Lefore the public. Either faith, wonder, and worship, are not, as the Quarterly Reviewer says, the natural and necessary results .of mystery, or the Church which pretends to promote worship, excite wonder, and inspire faith by claiming a perfect knowledge, which puts an end to mystery, is an impostor. nutest form, in its leaves and insects, and petty movements and humblest shadows, even in its most degraded creatures, as a deep and awful mystery, before which there is no place for arrogance or conceit— where he who sees nothing but the exterior is little better than an idiot, and he who pierces most deeply sees the darkest depths beyond. Once make the hu man being feel that there is more in things around than he can understand or penetrate, and he will acknowledge a mystery. With mystery will come the sense of his own weakness, humility, and self-distrust, and the still better conciousness of the presence of a greater Power. Then follows ne cessarily faith, for, in the midst of doubt and dark ness, man cannot live without faith. If he has no ground for it—as the Christian has—he will in vent and imagine a ground for it, as Mr. CARLYLE does. He will pe rs i s t i n c h er i s hi ng it, th oug h be can give no reason for it, and thus, though far from the truth, he has yet escaped from the regions farthest opposed to it—from scepticism, cold heartedness, self-sufficiency—she logic, restlessness, cavilling of an intellect which sees nothing beyond itself—and the great dreariness of despair which comes on as night draws round us, when the un derstanding can no longer work, and the heart can no more be deluded by its own vain dreams, but must awake and face the frightful realities of a world without a God, because without a creed, and without a creed, because without a Church." This Church Journal, therefore, declares that a sense of " deep and awful mystery removes the place for arrogance and conceit." An acknowledg ment of mystery, he says, " gives a sense of weakness, humility, and self-distrust," which he obviously looks on as virtues, and the " still better consciousness of a greater Power." Faith neces sarily follows, according to him, from mystery, for in doubt and darkness men cannot live without faith. To us this passage, corning from a Church man, who, by professing a firm and avowed belief in a set of cut-and-dry articles, cannot possibly see any mystery in the whole matter, seems a very ' remarkable passage, striking as directly at revela tion, or knor.ledge, with which mystery is incom patible, as can well be conceived. At the present time, when such large demands are made on our temper, our purses, our freedom, and our sense, by the Church, it appears not improper to follow up, if we can, the clue here given into our hands. It may be as well first to observe, that a mystery such as that of which the writer speaks, is the natural and necessary consequence of man's condition. He knoweth not his beginning nor his end. Both are alike involved in obscurity and mystery. Though he trace the origin of the body and its decay and corruption, still the connec tion of life with organization,—of mind with matter, is, and must ever be, inscrutable. It escapes alike the knife of the anatomist and the analysis of the metaphysician. Here, then, is a natural and an eternal source of mystery common to all mankind. The connection of consciousness with the ma terial world is equally mysterious. The savage wonders at tempests, and is awe-stricken at thunder. The philosopher tries to explain the rush of the wind, and the formation of the cloud ; he gathers up many facts, I he imitates the m i g ht y s h oc k by t h e c h arges o f hi s petty jars, and comes at length to the conclusion that it is caused by a fluid which nobody has ever seen or touched, but to which, by way of conceal ing his ignorance, he gives the name of electricity. This is the example ; but all the wonders of chemistry, explained by what are called chemical affinities, are as inexplicable as electricity. The eye sees not what the finger touches, but mere colours, while the finger touches not the light which enters the eye, but some laws of repulsion with which the supposed particles of matter are endowed. The philosopher can trace the action of light on the retina, but he can no more explain how the consciousness of distinct and near objects ensues, than how life results from organization. The furthest researches of the philosopher, and the first perceptions of the savage, leave man alike unable to explain a great multitude of things, and thus nature provides for the ever-continuance of mys tery, the source of humility and distrust, and of a conviction that man lives and moves, and has his being in the presence of a Power greater than himself. We arc free to admit that the progress of the election for Mayor yesterday, has disappointed our hopes. We are not indeed so much surprised as mortified by the state of the poll. When we call to mind the extraordinary arts which have been used to influence the Livery against Mr. HARMER, the deep-rooted sentiments which have been ap pealed to, he having been described as violating the strongest and most permanent feelings of man, we are astonished that he should not be wholly forsaken by the Livery. His character must have been excellent, his generosity great, his rectitude unimpeachable, his love of truth conspicuous, and the confidence of his neighbours and friends in proportion, or he never could have borne up for a day nor an hour against the flood of vituperation which has been poured out against him. A more severe ordeal few men have been exposed to, and all that the malice of his enemies orthe ingratitude of those whom he has served can allege against him, is that he mainly owes his present fortune to being the proprietor of a very popular Journal. If he could be charged with any other offence it would be brought forward, and though he should now fail, it must ever be for him and his friends a source of just and honest pride, that the only flaw in his whole conduct is his . bewg the owner of a newspaper which is a thorn in the flesh of the Tories. Such being the plain fact, the battle not being yet won, we cannot believe so ill of the Livery as to suppose that they will allow an honest, open / hearted Englishman to be run down because I the popular opinions of his Journal do not please the priesthood. Like Mr. HA RMEIi, the Livery are ' generous, honest, plain- spoken Englishmen, and they ' will, we are confident, do justice to him, and honour to themselves, by placing him at the head of the poll. They are now called on by a Journal, which one of its correspondents yesterday styled " the safeguard of our Ecclesiastical Establish ment," to vote against Mr. HARMER, because he is opposed to the Church ; but that Jour nal has veered round half -dozen times within these few years, and very likely will next year call on thcm to oppose Mr. PIRIE, because he owns timber ships which sometimes go down with their crews, or Mr. JOHNSON, because he is a Tory opposed to the Church. What men of sense could follow such a will-'o-the•wisp, to be , dragged through the mire of all parties as its inte rest or malice may dictate ? A more unsafe guide the Livery cannot follow. We hope, therefore, that they will to-day come forward in their strength, and give to Mr. HARMER, whose face, redolent of good humour and frank honesty bespeaks their confidence, a hearty support, and at once convince the sneaking Jesuitical crew who expect to triumph by calumni ating him, that the bulk of the Livery is not un- English, and priest-ridden, like the unknown au thors of the Declaration. who is a good citizen, a good father, a good hus band, with the two greatest ruffians modern times have produced. Mr. HARMER'S only offence is being the proprietor of the Dispatch, which, ac cording to the statements of his worst enemies, was never half so injurious to society as Mr• Sheriff EVANS' gin distillery. But because the Dispatch is not written to please the coadjutors of the landlords and their abettors in depopulating our towns, who are appointed by GOD, according to the Tory authorities, for this purpose, Mr. HAR MER is classed with GREENACRE and THURTELL. Livery of London, if you would not have ruffianism overspread the land under the patronage of the ruffian Tory press—if you would not have a moral confusion introduced which will be worse than a pestilence, bestir yourselves, and do not al low that press to run down such men as Mr. HARMER. If you permit it, there is not a virtuous citizen in the kingdom who may not in like manner be run down, as if he were a THURTELL or a GREENACRE.

On the Sth, Count WALEWSKI had arrived, on board the Papin steamer, from Alexan dria. The next day RIFAAT BEY arrived, on board the Turkish steamer Tajivi Bahri, with the final answer of the VICEROY to his Excellency and the Consuls of the F our P owers , w hi c h the Turkish Gazette says very expressively, " may be regarded as a refusal to adhere to the propositions of the Treaty of London." In fact the refusal of the Paella of EGYPT to accept the propositions of the Four Powers, gave more pleasure than pain. to the Divan. It was even said that the SULTAN had hoped for such a result, in order to deprive MEHE MET ALI of the Pachalics of Syria and St. Jean d'Acre. The Turkish squadron, consisting of a ship of the line, two frigates, two corvettes, and several transports, had joined the British fleet off Syria. Admiral HUGON, With a French fleet of nine vessels of war, was in the roads of Phalere. The fetvah, or sentence of excommunicatio n against MEHEMET ALI, granted to the Porte by the SHIEK AL ISLAM, had not been read in the Mosques on the 9th ult. Its promulgation was however to precede the commencement of hostilities on the part of the SULTAN. So far all is in a fair train towards a speedy and a definite result. This, however, is not admitted by any of the French Journals of Tuesday. We cannot but admire their consistency upon this point, even while condemnin g their cause as erroneous, At every step of our advancement towards a solu tion of the grand problem which turns all eyes to the East, the lively imaginations of our Gallic Contemporaries conjure up fresh hosts of insut mountable difficulties, which only disappear to make room for an array of evils still more terrible. We need not remind our readers of the rumoured intentional occupation of Constantinople by a Rus sian vanguard of 30,000 men, to be followed by the appearance in the Bosphorus of the entire fleet in the Black Sea, reinforced in a few months by the 100,000 troops reported to be encamped within a short march of Odessa. That calamity, which it was thought nothing could prevent, wa forgotten when it was discovered that Russia was about to fill the Mediterranean with her fleets now in the Black Sea and the Baltic, with the double view of stirring up - an insurrection in .the, Greek ist.oas, and prostratin g the power:of Mtex-Eiwr.r in Syria, and France in Africa. A month ago ME HEMET ALI, we were told, would not yield an inch to save Egypt from carnage, but on the first an nouncement of the hostile intentions of the Fou r Powers, he would order IBRAHIM to march upon Constantinople and extinguish the dynasty of the Osmanlis. Now that it cannot be denied that thef VICEROY has admitted that he, too, is made o " squeezable materials"—that he is amenable to the influence of " pressure from .without"— that, in a word, his Highness is capable of making con cessions when demanded by a regard for his per sonal glory and the interests of his family, a fresh obstacle of gigantic magnitude is discovered righ in the path of the Four Powers. It reminds us o an incident related in a chapter of Sacred history, with which our readers must be perfectly familiar —the angelic arrest of the progress of the Prophet B ls A ra L el A . AA %% I going forth to c What th e ean geld d irs to ot e the heass, Children of MEHEMET ALI has contrived that winter shall do to the Four Powers—force them, after the shipwreck of their fleets on the iron-bound coast of Syria, to proclaim aloud in language neve r b e f ore uttered by them, the evil influences by which t h ey have hitherto been directed. Now, of all the bugbears which have been conjured up to frighten the Four Powers, this of the winter off Syria is by far the most ridi culous. Nor can we believe MEHEMET ALI to be such a fool as to suppose that any losses which the Great Powers could sustain from the incle mency of the season now approachin g would in the least affect their determination. As regards Eng land, it is well known that the contrary will be the result—that the more the reduction of MEHEMET A ra.will cost, the more surely will it be effected when once resolved upon by our Government. , More over, who is there so blind as not to see the PA CHA'S ruin in tho delay for which it is now discovered that he is so anxious ? Even war would b e l ess terr ibl e to him than the maintena nce o f the present state of things. An empty treasury, a ndwt would tr trouble necessity u lethe e of keepingrpose of up t h a large standing army d b e mightiest of those heroes with whom a certain class of French "But y ou are forgetting the adv enturers delight in compar i ng the wily ruler of E gypt. e xistence of such a nation a s F rance, and that she is the ally of the PACHA ) " try is simpl e . T o forget the existence of so great a the F renc h j ourna li s ts. Our ans wer nation as Franc e is impossible ; to dream of doing so would be madness. But, wounded vanity apart, the interests of France and England in the adjust ment of the Eastern question are in a great measure identical. This is well known to the French Go vernment. We ther e f ore on l y ant i c ipate a media torial interfer enee on the part of France — an inter . ference invok e d b y L ord P ALMERSTON , and re sponded to by M. TRIERS, when he sent Count WALEWSKI to Alexandria, municated to the British Government, without laughing in his Excellency's face. Only conceive the absurdity of imputing to England designs hos tile to the triumph of the Revolution of July—a Revolution of which she was the first to proclaim to astonished Europe the entire legitimacy ! The Moniteur Algerien of the 21st ult. contains the particulars of the engagement which took place on the 19th between Ben Salem and the column of Ge neral Changarnier. Marshal Valee was seeking an opportunity of attacking this chief when he was informed on the 17th, that he was then encamped on the b a nks of the Oued Kaddara, laying siege to the French block house of Cara Mustapha. A column of troops was accordingly ordered to rendezvous on that day at the Maison Carrec, under the command of General Changarnier. This officer having made all the necessary arrangements, commenced his march at eight o'clock in the evening of the 18th, and at daybreak arrived at and surprised the camp of Ben Salem. The infantry of the Arabs was either destroyed or dispersed, and the cavalry having rallied on the right. bank of the Boudouaon, was vigorously charged by the Ist regiment of African Chasseurs and completely routed. 129 killed re mained on the field ; 17 were made prisoners, and 40 horses, with 200 muskets, fell into the hands of the French. Hadj•Omar, Caid of the Issers, and the . Gaid of the Arabs, were both killed, and Ben Salem e ffected his escape into the mountains. The French had only one man killed and six wounded. A journal mentions as a report the arrival of Maria Christina at Port Vendres. We believe that no credit s to be given to this news.

He has a splendid mansion on the banks of the Thames, with every accommodation that the heart of man can desire ; yet all this avails him nothing, while he sees thousands from his palace more happy than himself. SIDNEY SMITH told his Lordship' that lid — tekik's — v - iii - CO - tiveitieni stroll round St. Paul's for the purpose of making a speech on spiritual destitution, and the Bishop in Ithe House of Lords admitted that he had spent a whole Sabbath in counting the boats on the river, in order to make a similar speech, and tell the Peers how that sacred day was desecrated in front of his princely mansion. The House of Lords took no notice of this prying, pharisaical mode of spending the Lord's Day ; but the Times rudely adverted to it, and asked, very irreverently, " What would the man be at ?" Since that day till the present time the pious Bishop has not uttered a word against Sunday pleasure boats, but latterly has turned his attention to the barges, and in a letter addressed to the LORD MAYOR, and read at the Mansion-house yester day, calls on his Lordship, as Conservator of the River, to put a stop to the navigation of the river on the Lord's Day. He does not, it is true, personally make the application to the LORD MAYOR, and state, as he did on the occasion alluded to, the number of barges that pass up and down, but he tells the clergy on the banks of the river what they must do, and the obse quious slaves, to the number of fifty-three, obey his commands, draw up a memorial as if from themselves, and humbly request that he will pre sent their urgent prayer to the Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR, Court of Aldermen, &c., to put an end to the river traffic on Sunday. We are asto nished at the effrontery of this " man," after the speech he made but two months ago, so insulting to the clergy of England. On that occasion he sub stantially asserted that petitions from clergymen were all a " farce," that the Bishop and Arch deacon were the prime movers, and that they had only to propose, and the clergy must adopt ; and yet he forwards a letter to the LORD MAY.)II, dated the 18th of August, some few days after he made this memorable assertion, with a memorial from fifty-three of these clergymen, to back a phari saidal project of his own I The Court of Aldermen treated the memorial as it deserved. One said the project Could not be entertained till all Sunday trading was stopped ; another that bonds for 150,0001. had been given, and must be paid ; a third, that if the pious Bishop's wish were adopted, the Sunday would be dese crated ten times more ; and they summed up with this emphatic resolution, " That the Court had no:, the power to comply with the request of the memorialists." All the details of this miserable atter:„ - ,pt of the Bishop to impose upon the ignorant and superstitious multitude, will be found in another part of the paper, under the head " Court of Aldermen."

HARDIER.—A Correspondent informs us that Mr. Harmer is remarkable for his generosity, and ratft.tiorta. as a. proof of it, that on the spur- of -the moment he lent a respectable tradesman 5,000/. who was in temporary difficulties, and by other exertions melded him to get through them, and establish his fortune. He mentions, too, that Mr. Harmer advanced 3,0001. to enable a certain City functionary to assume a high office, which has since been repaid by that func tionary using al his in:crest to injure his benefactor. For a weak, silly man, an obligation is an insupportable load, and he is never easy till he has proved by his con duct that the person who served him was a fool for his pains. Amongst the placards in the City we see one which probably alludes to this circumstance. It runs thus :—" Skinflint will Marshall the meeting, and will give new lights upon gratitude and friendship." THE DIVINITY CHAIR AT GLASGOW,..-The Times has an article this morning on the selection of a pro fessor for this chair, for which Dr. Chalmers, if he has any sense of propriety, must be utterly ashamed. It sets cut with prefessing the most religious impartiality, ar.d after making three of the candidates as contemptible as possible, it presents Dr. Chalmers as suing, in/urn-a pauperis, for this valuable appointment,the most lucrative of all the theological chairs in Scotland. We thought the Doctor above the temptation of filthy /acre, hut, alas ! poor human nature, the bankruptcy of the Tory corporation of Edinburgh has crippled his finances, and that is made a plea for his transmigration to a richer living. The long Jesuitical article winds up quite in character, holding out a threat to the Seamus Academicus that if they do not select Chalmers, the University Commis sion will do for them. This very threat should decide their choice in favour of any candidate but that at tempted to be thrust upon them by the Apostate Journal. Nor does it require any knowledge beyond an acquaintance with the fact, that the light which is adapted to our eyes comes from and penetrates the furthest parts of space, to be convinced that this Power, which is around and about us, fills all space. It was—all re cords show—before us ; and there is a law of our being which convinces us that it will exist after us, and it is for us as eternal as it is illimitable. In our constitution, in our life, and in our connection with the material world, both in the infancy of mankind and in its furthest civilization, lie a source of inex plicable mystery, and a fountain of perpetual wonder. But what says the Church, with its formal creed, with its precise explanations and its direc tions ? Why that it knows all things—that the whole mystery of man's beginning and his end have been explained to it, that it has been admitted into the counsels of God, or had them imparted to it. The Church knows, too, why and how man is as he is, and knows precisely what is to become of him in all ages hereafter. We question not the truth of what the Church asserts, we only affirm that knowledge and mystery are antipodes. They are incompatible and contradictory states of mind which cannot possibly co-exist. The Church may know why man was made as we find him, may know what is to become of him hereafter, may know all those perplexing secrets which philosophers perpetually try to explain, and ever as they explain them, some find others still more difficult of explana tion ; and, knowing all that is essential, the Church may be able to prescribe every part of con duct, and solve every doubt; but we have the autho rity of the Quarterly Review for asserting that doubt leads to acknowledge a mystery, that mystery is the source of faith, the source of wonder and of worship, and that to have knowledge is to put an end to doubt, mystery, and faith. THE MARKETS.—(THIS DAY.) COLONIAL MARKET. There was little business done by private treaty, and with the exception of drugs and cotton, there were no public sales ; prices, however, were fully maintained for most articles. The imports keep light. TEA MARKET. There wes a fair amount of business transacted in all kinds of Tea, and fsrmer rates were fully supported. The public sales take place on Tuesday. TALLOW MARKET. Russian Tallow was dull of sale, but prices did not give way. The deliveries from the warehouses were small. WHITECHAPEL HAY MARKET. A good demand existed for Hay, and prices were fully supported ; the supply was small. Clover 3/. 103. to 6/ ; Meadow Hay, 3/. to 5/. ; Straw, IL 12s. to 1/. 14s. LLO YD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.)

P• - - We are grateful to the Quarterly for giving us , this explanation of the source of faith, and its in compatibility with knowledge. We see from that at a glance why mankind are now cold and self-suf ficient, believing nothing without a reason. It is owing to the influence of the priesthood. We s ee , too, why the priesthood are conceited, arrogant, de nuded of all sense of weakness, and unacquainted with the virtues of humility and self-distrust. For them everything is explained as clear as daylight. They have no d ou bt. For them t l . - Jere is n o mystery, and they can have no faith, - %Vhatever religion may be for the peopl e who: n they call on to have faith in them, with thr.n it is a matter of knowledge and of reason., as certain as the history of the Roman Em.i)erors, and as easily explained as the physical laws of vision. Their want of humility, their arrogance, imparts itself to the people. As they have no doubt the people have little, mystery is at an end, an d faith extinguish e d.

When that Corpouition Some journals say that the Government has resolved on convoking the Chambers. When ? Why, on the 25th of November ; that is to say, two months hence. This would be pure derision. When M. Thiers en tered on his ministry, his own journals declared that the regulix time for the meeting of the Chambers ought in future to be the Ist of November. Thus M. Thiers would have considered the urgency and gravity of the circumstances which oblige him to violate the Constitu tion only as a reason for putting off the moment for giving his political and financial accounts.—Le Com merce. The National has the following letter from Calais, dated the 26th : " Yesterday, the 25th, in the morning, one of our French mail-boats, crossing from Calais to Dover, met a division of Russian ships of the line sailing towards the south. There were three of them, one bearing the flag of R•2ar-Ad►niral. A division of twelve men-of-war of the same nation. is expected to-day or to-morrow. It is the whole of the Russia❑ fleet proceeding from the Baltic to the Mediterranean, without eclat and in small This netvs seems to be confirmed by the Industriel of Calais, of yesterday, which says— " We are assured that five Russian ships of the line paged this morning in sight of Calais.

Our Share Market appears without animation, and prices appear to droop. The Samarang frigate has arrived from Rio Janeiro. She brings a million and a half dollars. We have recieved a Rio Janeiro Price Current of a late date-21st August : Money Market,—The transactions have been very contracted, arising chiefly from the uncertainty which prevails as to the finance measure which may be adop ted to meet the deficit for the year 1840 and 1841, es timated by his Esc-,Alency the Minister of Finance, at 10,444 contos of reis ; but which, for the reason already given by us (Do Commercio), we calculate at 12,000 centos (1,500,0001. sterling). In this deficit is in‘du decl the arrears of the past year, amounting to 5,978 centos. Exchange.--Since the sailing of the Delight packet on the 13th instant, there has been nothing done until this day, when bills to the amount of 10,0001. sterling were negot'ated at 30, and some small sums on Paris at 320, and on Hamburgb at .590. Stock.—Sales were made on the 13th in Cant far small amounts of 6 per cent, at 73; and 74 ; but upon the amount of the deficit being made known the price fell full I V per cent., and sales were made at 731 dis.

About 700 pipes Mediterranean have been disposed of. Accounts from New Orleans state, that a destruc tive avalanche occurred there. It took place between Conti and St. Louis's streets ; the whole of the allu vial deposits in front of that part of the City, together with a part of the old levee, gave way, carrying with it the Bayan Sara wharf, which was completely de stroyed. Six fathoms of water remain on the spot. The wharfs extending from Conte-street to St. Peter's street, are in the most miserable condition, some of them being entirely destroyed.

BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE. A . From the curious nature of its informat ion, an d the subtle literacy theories in which it abounds , we conjecture that the Essay " On Style" is from the e lf pen of Mr. De Quincey. It is carelessly written, in utter contempt of its title ; lint we reogn,ri; ambles 16e . te t throughout it a mind as fully stored as alt man's pantry, but wherein there seems to be a n'e7 order or arrangement of ideas.

For inst a nce, speaking of t l i is torian Velleius Paterculus, he tells us that " style is sometimes clumsy and u nsv:el4 , 'I nervous, masculine, and su c h as became a sniclier' The epithets " clumsy and unwieldy " are 'inform' nate as applied to this author's style, which is 'lee markable for its neatn ess , preci6on, and eleg l , e he and at times rises al mos t to the poetica l. word " nervous "is more just, bt:t P intea t would have been bett er , f or Paterettlias, lik e , i r s o f of those who wrote i n th e age follow,'og that Cicero, affected tersenes s an d con dense' packed up what he had to say in the smallei t .Pi e . sible compass ; though oc cas i ona lly, as in 11'3e, gee, as invective against A n th on y, his periods gee, as flowing and sonorous as those of the great • le man orator, of whom he then reminds us. ° f crates, to whom our author devotes two pag.e s y know nothine., except th a t h e sen t--preponf should hope--a lone-, prosy letter, by the Pen f e h i o Post, to a gentleman named Demodocus, who, had happen e d t o b e i n a d e li cate state o f hea , ., 11- i a te the time, could not poss ibl y h ave sur vive" i - t h perusal.

The " Tourists" is a lively rhymed hag ate We quote the introduction :--- pro Once Satan and Moloch Set out on their rambles, To refresh their old hearts With a view of our gambols For of late they had seen But a few of the men Who once brought the news Of this world to their den. Since Napoleon " Le Grand" They had scarcely a hero ; In fact, the world's glories Were sinking to zero. So they came up to see What their old friends were doing, V 4 hat mischief the soldiers And statesmen were brewing. ;i As they rose in the East, Moloch stepp'd on a scull ; " Aha !" said the fiend, " I see signs of Stamboul." Satan kick'd it, way, And exclaim'd with a sneer, " That skull was Mahmoud's, Once my favourite Vizier. " He murder'd his friends And he crouched to his foes ; The Sun of his Empire Went down, when he rose. And now Earth's crown'd idiots Will fight on his grave But to see which shall prove Most the tyrant or slave." When they rambled to Russia, And saw its gay Czar, Like a prince o f th e 01:er All rihand and star, Said S a t an , " Thi s so n Of the regions of sleet Has one half of the world For a toy at his feet ; " Not content with the half, He's resolved may d a t y o have all ; Though cities burn, And millions may fall." " That will do," cried the pair, As they snuff'd up the gore ; Satan roared with delight— Moloch echo'd the roar. Then they rambled to France ; All was fertile and fair ; The fields were all harveat, All fragrance the air. • 'Twas a stint , to their hearts, And each cried with a groan, " What blockhead of clay Can deserve such a throne ?" But they heard a wild shout, Smoke darken'd the sun, They heard the guns thunder, The war was begun I There was slaughter on sea, And slaughter on shore ; And the two rovers laueh'd Louder still than before. " Democracy in America" is a not ice of Pvee Tocqueville's w ell-known work on this s u gg estl ie theme. Speaking incidentally of Madame Stael, the Reviewer tells us that " she was OP nently English in all her sentiments."
