LAMAITINE AND NAPOLEON RONAPARTE.--Baron
Jennianurski, a colonel of the Polish lancers of the old
impanel guard, has written to M. Laiiiartine, to correct, on
his own authority, as an eye-witness, several inaccuracies
contained in M. lAmartine's recently published " Ristory of
the Restoration," relating to the return from Elba. This is
M. Lamutine's reply—" 1 thank you fur your rectifications,
1 will make use of them as of an irrefutable testimony. With
regard to my judgment upon the institutions and the policy
of Napoleon, it must necessarily differ from yours as
widely as our points of view are different. I
understand, and I honour, the fidelity of enthusiasm
of a blare lieutenant fur his general. Gratitude
wean a bandage over its eyes as weal em justice. But 1, a
man of another religion, love the independeues of all na-
tions,
that 1 may have the right to love the iudependenee of
the nation of which 1 form a part. I desire morality even
in glory ; in short, I abhor despotism, and I must logically
and from my heart judge with severity the man who was
the most formidable instrument of despotism. Receive,
Monsieur, the assurance of my high consideration.—
LAStalTlNE.—Paris, March 1."

"THE EDUCATION OF THE ETE."—On Saturday,
tr. N. Dine, Wyatt. dettverod a lecture on this subject, at
eybridge, in aid of the funds of tho Mechanics Institute.
Mr. Wyatt pointed out, in appropriate and forcible terns',
the gratification and utility to be derived by cultivating a
knowledge g the external aspiete of the infinitely varied
object of eare and art; in their respective elements of
form, light and shade, and colour. He exphiincd the
physical structure of the eye, and its power of conveying
education to the mind. The lacilities acquired by prat ice,
in measuring size and distance by the eye, in discriminating
between different shades of colour, and other familiar
examples, were referred to. The elementary forint of simple
objects, and the effect of perspective upon them were ex-
plained; together with the operation of light and shade
upon the human form, and upon the face of nature. The
lecturer concluded by dwelling on the importance to all
classes of a knowledge of the principles of art, and the
necessity of diffusing them by the establishment of drawing
schools.
ATHENSUM INSTITUTE FOR AUTHORS AND
ARTIIIIII.—A new society under this name has just been
projected. The object is stated to be, to afford to authors
and artists the advantages arising from extensive co-opera-
tion. To effect this object it is proposed that the institute
shall consist of four !stanches, viz , a protective society, •
philanthropic and provident fund, an educational associa-
tion, and a life assurance department. An organisation of
authorship is the ultimate end of the system, and its effect
is intended to be the elevation of the literary man in the
scale of society to at least the same degree of consideration
as the barrister, the physician, or the clergyman. " The
teachers of a nation, and the moulders of the national sen-
timent," say the projectors " should be cared for as much
as those who make and administer is' laws."

MADRID AND VALENCIA ILAILWAT.—On Satur-
day a numerous meeting in this matter was held before the
blaster in :haneery Blunt, in pursuance of an order of the
court, declaring that a dividend of Ijis. per share should be
paid to the parties entitled to receive it, such dividend and
all future dividends to be paid to the persons for the time
Whig appearing to be ecripholders, or entitled to scrip upon
a list to be made out Mr. Quitter, the official manager,
for settlement by the Muter, and for which purpose prior
to the 28th ult. all persons claiming in respect of scrip were
, to furnish it with full explanation of their claims, other-
, wise they would be excluded from receiving the dividend,
and from all future par ie:ppaation in the funds of the com-
pany. On 4atueday accordingly, Mr. Outlier, with Messrs.
Sharpe and Yield, his solicitors, brought the list before the
Master, who peossedod M bear cis shims of those parties
to the dividend who had paid taw deposit and received
scrip that had been either love or deetanyod. Mr. Steele,
on behalf of Mr. Alderman limner, applied to place the
ablormen's sagas en die list, as entitled to the Lis. for 100
&ism MR Yorks been paid to Mastermans', the bankers
albs sonipsay, by cheque on Gosling's, but the scrip,
Ibeemoph some inadvertence or mistake, had never been
headed over, and was now in the possession of the official
ineageor. The Master, after a discussion and on proper
esbillommerdered the dividend to be paid to Mr. Ald. Harmer
W apeseing to give an undertaking, if called upon, to
esibod lie amis. Other scripholders claimed to have their
ammo pined ea the li.t, as entitling them to the dividend,
em Imo olliptien that the eerily hail been lost, but their cases
WISP postpaid to the 19th instant fur further evidence,
whe
n, if sulkiently conclusive, their claims will be ad-
on giving such undertaking or indemnity as the
Mentor may require. Two parties claimed the dividend on
a portion of shares, the scrip of which is sow held e 7 Mr.
of St. Ilelen's-pLsee, who is a bolder of scrip for
1,200 shares, a portion of which is supposed to have been
brought up at a few shillings per share. The Muter in this
case directed the dividend to be stayed until the 19th, when
the eases will be fully gone into. In other instances parties
appeared to claim the dividend in respect of scrip they had
sold, and which was now in th, hands of the official
mitusager. Their claims of course were refused. Affidavits
were put in evidence in each case, proving the claims of
each of the parties entitled to the receipt of dividend, with
the ezeeption of those whose cases ore adjourned. It may
be mentioned as somewhat satisfactory t the shareholders
in this protracted proceeding that they will now forthwith
receive beck a portion of their money, as the Master ap-
peared to be engaged at intervals in signing cheques on the
&al&O of England for payment of the Fie
RTAL RANK UV AlljevlKALlA.—On Saturday the
consideration of the claim of the Ukase Bank of London
wee roamed before Meter Richards. Mr. Harrill, with Mr.
Rosburgh and Mr. H. Harris, appeared for thu estate, and
Kr. Clarke for the Union Sink. Mr. beningeour, manager
albs Union Bank, was examined relative to the transactions
(viously reported here) between the two banks, in the
s of various 'demotes which sow left an alleged balance
in your of the Union Bank as shove. After considerable
dlisesseicio, the Master Intimated that as the question in-
velem various legal difficulties, the settlement sod solution
of which could only be adequately arrived at by a common
law moss, he would admit the demand, not as a debt, but
°sly as a claim, which would give the parties an opportu-
nity of going to a court of law.
