IVIR. VANDER KLEFT takes leave respectfully to
announce to the Nobility, Gentry, and Public in general,
that he has now completed the repairs of a most magnificent
MODEL, of St. PETER'S CHURCH at Rome, the property of
a Nobleman, which has been examined and approved by some of
the first Architects in the kingdom ; the dimensions of which are
nine feet nine inches in length, three feet in breadth, and three feet
in height. It is the only model in the world of such magnitude,
and known to be the joint production of several distinguished Popea.
This perfect specimen of Architecture will be found to be a conect
representation of the interior as well as the exterior of St. Peter's.
The proprietor having kindly consented to grant Mr. Kieft the ex. i
elusive privilege of exhibiting this surprisiug production to the
public for a short time, as a part remuneration for his arduous la-
bours, in the repair of it, be gladly embraces the opportunity thus
offered him of doing so. Amongst other articles of curiosity and
interest which he proposes submitting to inspection, will be found
various anatomical wax models of great beauty, which lie has just
received from Genoa, and which he confidently recommends as
worthy the notice of the gentlemen of the faculty and men of
science, consisting of a male and female head and Colossian ear,
in different stages of dissection, of an extraordinary and surprising
nature, which, upon close and minute examination, will be pro.
nounced the first specimens of the art in this kingdom ; together
with some very interesting models in wax of the late celebrated
Pirey, to which Mr. Klett will have the satiataction of adding
various productions of hit own, and several items of taste and virth.

DISH'S FAREWELL! ! !—TO THE PUBLIC.
N addressing you, " my best Friends," for the last time,'
1
Contractor, I do fed various sensations not to be described;
Inexpressible gratitude for years of unbounded preference and fa.
tours bestowed for a long senate years, not merely on myself, but
on my late father. We have, it Is tine, as Dispensers of the fa.
vows of the Blind Goddess, been most eminently successful in
distributing an unprecedented List of Capitals, amounting in the
aggregate to many Millions; and, as Lotteries increased in num-
ber, my fame for the distribution of its wealth increased also. b
is. therefore, with the sincerest regret I announce that the Genial*.
tare has come to what I consider a very unwise decision, viz. to
abolish Lotteries. And for what reason ? Only to please a few per-
sons, who have not examined their merits, but have confounded
illegal transactions with the legitimate. I may be considered to
take a partial view of the case ; but where a system has gone on
without intermission ever since the reign of Queen Anne. and
brought annually nearly Half a Million into the Treasury, I con.
not but agree with an eminent writer, who tam" Surely the pre-
sent is not the best period for experiments ;" and it would, in my
humble opinion, have been more wise to have done away with seve-
ral obnoxious and paltry 'faxes (vexatious in their collection),
than to annihilate the Lottery, which, let it be well borne in
mind, is a voluntary Tax ; and, by its continuance, not only
might those obnoxious Taxes be removed, but hundreds of per-
sons kept in employment who must now be discharged ; and is
this a time to add to the number of ';rose whn want support ? It
is, however, useless to repine—the Government hate decided that
it shall be so—and all that can be now done is, to make the most
of the short time allowed before the system is abolished. As one
of the last Contmetore, I have arranged, with my Colleagues, such
a Scheme as must, I think, give universal satisfaction. It contains
the very unprecedented number of SIX Grand Prizes af 30,0001.
Money (no fomier Lottery 'et, contained more than Four): and
my fame for sale of 30,0001. Prizes is proverbial—l sold the first,
the last, and more than half of all that have ever been drawn ! No
Blanks—all Sterling Alottry--and all to be decided in One Day,
lath JULY, being the very Last Drawing of all.
Tickets and Shares are on Sale at my Offices, where Schemes
may be had gratis. The Price will rise considerably on Monday,
the nth instant. I have the honour to be,

that is-teaject of such importance should he discussed *Ph 'entire

Publicathms of a very inflammatory nature had gone abroad,
which were calculated to stir tip the passlone of the people, and to
excite rebellion. Speeches were made at public meetltto to pro.
mote the same spirit, and every effort had been tried to disseminate
discontent. Such conduct was hie!), reprehensible end intonate-
tent with the importance of the sudject to which it relatrd.
Mr. DUNDAS tnterained similar feelings of regret that the
subject should hare been treated with such intemperance. He
was sorry such productions had gone abroad, and had proceeded
from a person who had previously stood so high.

THELWALL'S MONTHLY MAGAZINE.
On the 3lmt January will be published, price 3s. fid. No.!. of the
PANORAMIC MISCELLANY; or, Monthly Ma-
gazine and Review of Literature, Science, Arts, Inventions,
and Occurrences.

Numerous as are our present periodical publications, the new
and successive impulses given to the popular mind, and the in-
creasing thirst fur intellectual improvement, seem to suggest the
expediency of a Monthly Miscellany of somewhat higher aim than
has hitherto been attempted, winch should aspire to a middle
station between the customary class of ,Magazines and the pro-
fessed Scientific Journals--popularising on one band the results of
philosophical research, and gratifying and refining, on the other,
the taste for elegant and amusive literature. Such is the aim of
the peojector of this Miscellany, and of those highly-respectable
associates, native and foreign, upon whose assistance he relies.
For more ample detail, he refers to the Prospectus now in circula-
tion ; by which it will be seen that while due attention will be paid
to every object of general usefulness and curiosity, new sources of
intellectual culture and information will be opened ; and especially
that particular attention will be paid to the hitherto neglected tree.
surety of Italian Literature.

Prospectuses to be hall of Mr. Wilson, Royal Exchange; by
whom orders and advertisements will be received ; anti to whom,
or to J. Thelwall, Esq. No. I, Dorset-place, Pail-mall East,

THE EMPEROR ALEXANDER'S NURSE.

The Stir ?iv Journal gives the following account of Ma-
dame Gcs!cr, a Scottish lady, who nursed the Emperor
Alexander:—" Madame Gesltr, whose maiden name was
Ewing, was horn at the Torwood Toll, Stirlingshire, in the
year MA , where her father kept the bar, having lost his
sight from severe fevtr. Some time after, the family went
and resided at Old Sanchie, neat Devon Iron Works. Ma-
dame Gesler (at this time Miss Ewing) and her elder sister
being iu tho service of the late Lord Cathcart, went with
him to Russia, in his embassy to the court of Catherine.
Some years thereafter she married M. Gcsler, keeper of the
jewels, Elie. to the Empress, with whom Madame Geslcr,
became a great favourite ; and on the birth of the Emperor
Alexander, was appointed by her to the important duty of
wet nur e. Thus she and her husband continued high in
favour under the reigns of Paul and Alexander. AI.
Gts'er still lives, but Madame Gesler died about seven
years ago. Her elder sister was married to an English gen-
tleman, high in favour with the Empress; and her family,
as well as that of Madame Gelder, now move in a very ele-
vated sphere. Some time after their settlement in St. Pe-
tersburgh they sent fur a younger sister they had left at
home, who was not long with them till she became the wife
of Dr. Ebling, physician to the Grand Duchess, the Empe-
ror's sister. On the marriage of the Grand Duchess to the
Archduke John of Austria, the doctor and Madame Ebling
went with them to Vienna, but the Archduchess dying in
child-bed, they returned to St. Petersburgb, with a consi-
derable
addition to their forune, their royal patroness hav-
ing hequeathid them jewels and other valuables to a consi-
derable amount, besides a small estate near St. Peters-
burgh ; so that they keep their carriage, and have the sa-
tisfaction of seeing their sons high in the Russian army.
Michael, the brother of the fortunate Madame Gesler, and
of the no less successful Madame Ebling, has lived at
Devon Works since they were established, and with him
his father and mother lived for many years previous to
their death, where they were honourably maintained by
their Russian children. The brother has reared a large
family at Devon, and one of his sons went some time ago
to St. Petersburgh, where he is doing extremely well."

DUEL IN FRANCE.

A duel was fought at St. Servan, on the Ist inst. The
parties were a French gentleman, Mons. 8., attended by
two friends, and Captain F—y of the British Royal Artil-
lery, attended by Captain P—b—t—n, and Lieutenant
W—re, both of the Royal Navy. The circumstance which
gave rise to this affair was Captain F.'s having been way-
laid and assaulted, without any provocation or cause of of-
fence, by Mons. B. on the 30th of December, at half-past
12 o'clock at night, when returning home from a party.
Captain F. having demanded satisfaction, the parties met
at eleven A. m., when the French gentleman refused to fight
with pistols, unless the Captain would agree (no casualty
occurring) to fight with the small-sword after the first fire.
The British sezonds not deeming themselves authorised to
permit this arrangement, the French party thought it
proper to make some very unhandsome reflections respect-
ing British cfliters wearing swords which they did not know
the use of. It was then proposed to refer the dispute to a
meeting of an equal number of French and English Gen-
tlemen ; but, although, much discussion followed, no deci-
sion took place. The English seconds advised Capt. F. not
to fight with sw rds in his weak state of health, occasioned
by wounds and song services in different climates, because
his adversary being a young man of five-and-twenty, is
robust health, and an excellent swordsman, the chances
were considered as riot being by any means equal. Captain
F. was, however, determined that it should not be said
that a British officer was afraid of a French sword, and
waving the use of pistols altogether, he even took the
French on their own terms, and with their own weapons.
The patties met again at four r. u., when, after, a smart
combat with small swords, Captain F. succeeded, at the
moment of his being slightly wounded, in disarming his
adverra-y, which of course terminated the contest. The
sword was not returned to the French until it was de-
mantled of them if they had aught further to say, and if
Captain F---y could now walk the streets unmolested ?•
They immediately promised it on their honour, declaring
that they had unanimously recognised Captain F. to be a
gentleman, a man of honour, and a brave man, and thus
terminated the affair. Captain F. is nearly well ; it ap-
pears he was wounded in the abdomen, slightly, though
critically. Captain F. had not practised with foils since he
left Woolwich set years ago. Some of the parties are well
known, and highly respected in Southampton.—Southamp.
