Prussia— Koniag/bw^h. —His.Pruffian Ma
jesty made a law, that perlons of all diftin&ions
should on the public reads give place for the
public flages. In hislaft tour to Memel, he
met one of rhtm, which upon the difeovery of
his Majcfty turned aside to give him a free pas
sage. Immediately his Majesty ordered the
driver to be arteffed. His Majesty then gave
him a feyere reprimand for breaking the law.
The driver replied, he had only turned out to
accommodate his Majesty. So mus the worse,
said the King, for of all men he ought to be the
firfl to set a good example.

Religious Sentiments of Socrates.
WHEN Enthydemus expressed a with to
have a complete assurance of the existence
of the powers above, Socrates replied to him :
" Know affurcdly, that I told you the truth,
when 1 declared the existence of the Gods, and
averted, that Man is their peculiar care ; but
expert not that the, should assume a sensible
appearance, and present themfelvcs before you ;
fitirfy yoFtfelf with the contemplation of their
works, and with paying them adoration ; re
member that this is the way in which they make
themfelvcs known unto men. For of all the
heavenly powers, whose liberality towards us is
so great, no one ever becomes the visible dif
penfcr of his own bounty ; and the great GOD
himfelf, who created the Universe, and who
fnftains that gaff fabric, all the parts of which
are adfofted in perfed beauty and goodness; He
who conftantl, watches over us, and takes care
that it (ball not wax old, and fall into decay
through length of duration, but always subsist
in immortal vigour ; He who also, with power,
uncontrollable, constrains the whole to obey his
will) He, t fay is abundantly visible in all those
wonders of which He is the Author. But let
our eyes attempt to penetrate to his throne, and
to contemplate all these might, operations in
their fopree, here He mull be ever invisible."

FROM A LATE LONDON PAPER
c— _
The celebrated Prince Henry of Prussia.
Letters from Berlin of the 11th August date
* That the will of the celebrated Prince
Henry of Prussia was to be opened on the
18th in fc pfefence of some commissioner of
the royal family and certain foreign minis
ters. It is, however, generally reported that
Prince Louis, brother to the King, is appoin
ted hii fote heir.
rt Shortly before Prince Henry died, he gave
orders to Count Rochcaymon, his adjutant,
to take to the King, his nephew, after his bu
rial, the sword which his royal highness wore
In the ftven years war, and with which he
gained so many Brilliant victories for Prussia.
'' The Prince's remains were Interred sth Aug.
in the chapel of the palace of Rheinfberg.
His highness himfclf wrote some years before
his death, his epitaph, which will now be
placed on his tomb —lt is in German, to the
following purport :—
EPITAPH.
; Thrown by birth
into
• the vertex of a giddy vapour,
.which
the vulgar call glory and grandeur,
but /
the nullity of which is too well known to the
^ c: .
a prey to all human infirmities
tormented by the passions of others,
disturbed by his own,
and
borne down by the loss of beloved relations,
true and faithful friends,
yet often, too, condoled by friendfhip;
happy in coUeding his thoughts,
happier Rill
where his services could prove ufeful to his
country, or (offering humanity.
This,
a brief Sketch of the, Life of
HENRY FREDERICK LOUIS,
Son of Frederick William I. king of Prussia,
and of
Serbia Drotbea, daughter of George I. king
of England.
