Sir D. Brewster attributes the forged Pascal and
Newton letters to one H. Pierre Durnaininx, a French-
man who resided in England between the years 1692 and
1745, the year of his death. He was ■ Fellow of the
Royal Society, and waaintimately acquainted with Newton
and with the leading scientific, men of the day. He was
• contributor to the " General Dictionary," u is stated in
the preface to that work, and he posessaed that knowledge
of physical science which appears in the correspondence
between Pascal and Newton. This personage is the
most important in connection with the fabricated docu-
ments. He is himself the author of six of the letters
published by H. Chaales, and no fewer than nine are ad-
dressed to himself by some of the most distinguished
writers of the day.

It in stated that a parcel of 32 bills, to the aggre-
gate amount of 12,8891. 14s. 6d., and another of Xi bills,
to the amount of 17,1351. 7s. 6d., endorsed by Messrs.
Rothschild, of Vienna, on the Bth inst., to Messrs. L.
Behrens and Sons, of Hamburg, have been stolen. Caution
must therefore be exercised by all dealers until further
particulars can be obtained. _

Tee PRINCE or WALES'S HARRlERS.—Yesterday
morning the Prince of Wales, accompanied by Colonel
Hardinge, and attended by Major Grey, had a day's sport
with the royal barriers. The Prince and his attendants
drove in a shooting break and four from Windsor Castle,
through Staines, to Mr. Peter Fowler's farm at Stairwell,
where the meet had been fixed. There was a large field
present. His royal highness reached the farm-house,
which is situated but • short distance from the South
Western line, about noon. The Prince alighted from the
carriage and entered the house in order to partake of Mr.
Fowler's hospitality previous to the commencement of the
hunt. His royal highness remounted, and then the hunts-
men and hounds trotted off to a large piece of stubble,

led the chase away in the direction of Stanwell Moor. The
day 1M foggy, and the Prince, after a good deal of hard
riding, returned to Windsor Castle.
