The recent dist-making in Parliament, respecting Joint S..ock
Companies. make it important to obaerve. that the tihareholders of

FERUSSACS UNIVERSAL BULLETIN OF
SCIENCE.

The Bulletin l'niversel is one of thorn undertakings which
claim the attention of every well-informed man. As it prelents,
monthly, in a methodical shape, all new facts relating to the arts
and sciences, collected from all parts of the civilized world, it has
been considered as supplying a grand desideratum of the age, and
accordingly been received everywhere with (strong interest. The
following statement will give an idea of its contents :—An octavo
volume of 36 sheets. printed in a small Roman character, con
taining more matter than Aft sheets of the onlinaq French Journals,
presents, monthly, nearly 1000 articles on the principal facts in the
sciences. These articles are edited by a select committee of two him-
dyed of the Saran% of Paris, who collect the substance of all the
Journals of the civilized world. nod announce, or rather analyse,
the works of all countries ; whilst an active correspondence with
learned societies, and the most celebrated men, is an unfailing
source of interesting intelligence. The Bulletin, in short, is in-
tended to connect the man of science and the wan of business, by
serving as a channel of communication and regular correspondence
between them ; to promote among all nations a mutual inter-
change of ideas and knowledge ; and to give the earliest account
of new works, new facts, new processes, new machines, and dis-
coveries.

The Bulletin is divided into eight sections, any oneof which may
be had separately. This arrangement is founded on the various
tastes and occupations which divide society. In this manner the
awronomer, the mechanician, the chemist, the natural philosopher,
the physician, the agriculturist, the manufacturer, the mathema-
tician, the engineer, the architect, the historian, the philologist, the
pber, the antiquary, the soldier—all may dense information
fre,:t7t. Six monthly volumes in separate sections, for 1824, are
now published. The following is a list of the different divisions of
the work :
