A Mayor Of the Cannintine of La Veinier is
found to he the phsiessor of a great Humber of let-
ters and of several manuscripts of Voltaire. which lie
has received from Thiriot, one of the moot active

verse, of the licHriade, addressed to Louts XV.

The excessive heats that .se experience hove riven
rise to several meteorological observations, pielti-
cleutly interesting. A remarkable circumstance in
them is, that the heats are nearly equal throughout
Europe, in all latitudes. At Home,

Before the King of Priem set out on his return
to his dominions he visitrieCronstadt, where he ex-
amined the Harbour, the Dacks. and other es-
tablishtnedts belonging to the Nary. His MajeAty,
en his departure to-day, was accompanied by the
Imperial fantily as far as Gatschiiia.
Some 'Laplanders, who hare arrived at Cola,
report that, in the course of the year ISM, the
beat iii L inland was so great, that the berry Rebws
tiossatcronorw9, which usnally grows in low and rooiNt
situations, was entirely dried up Ey'the situ, so that
no fruit of this kind was gathered. May not this
Treat in the high northern latitudes account for the
breaking up of the ice in the Polar regions, as well
as the aopearance of A 'sting fields Of ice and ice-'
bergs in the Atlantic Ozean.?

The clamber of Students in Gottingen before the
disturbance', was 1,150. Besides those who went to
Witzenhansen, many went to Mundell and other
places. M sny persons believe that the temporary
emigration of the Students has prevented many
affrays. Sevensl of the Students have been in the
army.
Italsoett, uokuse 5.
It is said that his Majesty the Emperor of Russia,
on his way to the Congress of Sovereigns, will pass
through Hamburgh, Hannier, sod Pyrmont.
It is stated that the viewer given to the deputies
• from the Students of Gottiugen, is. that the in-
'Tarry into the affair is to be terminated, and the
*military not to be removed from Gottingen at
present.
We learn also, that a Proclamation has beets
sent by etpress to Gottingen, to be there posted up
and made knotast to the Students. Among other
things, it is Said to boor, that "‘ the glory of the
Uirversity does nun depend on the number of the
Students, but on their good morals, obedience
to their Superiors. and improvement in their
atudie4, and that it is no loss to the University
if the idle and turbulent leave it, and do tint re-
turn to trouble and reduce the better members."
The emigrated Studeutssre summoned to return by
the IS Is inst.; the natives of the kingdom under
penally of bring excluded from futurss public
offices—and the foreigners, who have stipends, on
pain of losing them. The Professors are to re-
commence their lectures immediately.
GOTTINGUN, AUGUST 1.
Yesterday at length, after a week's absence, a
great part of the Students, who were scattered in
all directions, returned, because rigorous rescripts
bad been issued from Hanover. But in order to
exercise the right of retaliaion on their tide, it is
said they have declared the University shut against
foreigners for two years and a quarter, and that these
latter sill leave the town in the course of this and
next week ; even now they cannot attend the lec-
tures. If this agreement should be completely exe-
cuted, there will remain here hardly 600 Student's,
about half the number that was here befo:e the late
eVelitS.

Ti' Quarw,—lt efrords os great pleasure in
being able to say, her NIS:. Corn' continues so much
better, as to ride out in her garden-chaise again too
'Tuesday evening, for half au hoer. Her MAI girl'
proceeded through the pleasure gronoods attuched
to
Kew Palace; site vies most strectioustely ocean-
pained by the Duchess of G Lou( ESTBS, the Priti-
'cell Afiottirea, and the Duke of Sussex. Her
MAJESIY was attended by one of her medical at-
tendants. Sir HENRY iIALFOItk. The PIIINCE
RAGSNT celled to pay his dutiful respects to hi•
beloved Mother, on his way from Hampton Court.
The account from Kew yesterdsy was
" The Queen has bad a good sight, sod is better."

The Paris Papers of Sunday last have ar-
*rived. The Lawcasterian system of instruction is
making rapid progress in Fiance. Au article from
the Amu,ls, copied into 6: Moniteur,
contains a long list of cities and districts in which
schools of this description base been recently este-
Wished. In noticing one to he formed in the Depart-
merit of the Cotes-du-Nord, the writer says, " These
countries swirl in need of being erilighteued. The
public tranquillity will be more secure there when
there shall be more inforinition. The love of
country stifles far ever the germ of wars, and this
love is the more ardent and sincere as inert err
more informed, and their hearts penetrated with
better principles." Besides these 'efforts to itn-
prime the general state of society, the present
Papers tumidh several instsuces of the active
spirit of private benevolence. A charitable so-
ciety, composed of citizens of the first dietinc.
tiou in Lyons, has been established in that 'City,
fur the relief, at their own houses, of the indigent
sick, who are unable to work and ashamed to beg.
This Society is formed on the model of one et
Parts, of which the Duke de Bents is President.
Suliseriptious have also been opened for the relief
of the inhabitants of St. Sulpier, in the depart-
ment of the Cute d'Or, in which eighty houses
were lately burned down; and also for farmers, the
fruits of whose labour. have been destroyed in seve-
ral districts ravaged by recent storms. These
works of peace form a grateful contrast with
the arts of war, and are judiciously mitred
at the present moment with a desire to gra-
tify the love of glory and the fondness for spectacle,
which enters so much into the French character.—
Grand preparations are making for the erection of
the statue of the favourite Sovereign REMIT IV.
stud also fora statue of Louis XIV.
It is mentioned as a curious circumstance, well
ascertained by meteorological observations iu several
capitals of Europe, that the heat is very nearly of
the same degree all over the Continent, iu all lati-
tude*.

One half of the Ilioniteoar is filled with a Royal
Ordinance for organizing and regulating the Gou-
powder and Saltpetre Winks.
The French Funds appear rather on the decline.

A 1-fainburgh Mail arrived last alight, with Palen

people has proved very serious, and has excited
