Biloptaparte.

On a superficial view the body appeared very fat, which state
was confirmed by the first incision down its centre, where the fat
was upwards of one inch ands half over the abdomen. On cutting
through the cartilages of the ribs, and exposing the cavity of the
thorax, a ttitting adlicaion of the left pleura was found to the
pleura costalis. About three ounces of reddish fluid were con-
tained in the left cavity, and nearly eight ounces in the right.--
The lungs were quite sound. The per..erdium was natural, and
contained about an ounce of fluid.
The heart was of the natural size, but thickly covered with fat.
The auricles and ventricles exhibited nothing extraordinary,
except that the muscular parts appeared rather paler than natural.
Upon opening the abdomen the omentum was found remarkably
fat, and on exposing the stomach, that viacus was found the
seat of extensive disease. Strong adhesions connected the whole
superior surface, particularly about the pyloric extremity to:the
concave surface of the left lobe of the liver ; and on separating
these, an ulcer, which penetrated the coats of the stomach, was
discovered one inch from the pylorus, sufficient to allow the pas-
sage of the little finger. The internal surface of the stomach,
to nearly its whole extent, was a mass of cancerous disease or
schirrous portions advancing to cancer; this was particularly
noticed near the pylorus. The cardic extremity for a small space
near the termination of the esophagus, was the only part appear-
ing in a healthy stale. The stomach was found nearly filled with
a large quantity of fluid resembling aiffee grounds.
The convex surface of the left lobe of the liver adhered to the
diaphragm. With the exception of the adhesions occasioned by
the disease in the stomach, no one healthy appearance presented
itself in the liver.
The remainder of the abdominal viscera were in a healty state.
A slight peculiarity in the tormation of the left kidney was
ob.cived.

Eon Don :
SUNDAY, JULY 7.

The " Constitutional Association " has been
brought forward in two different shapes—first by
Mr. Hobhouse, on presenting a petition from Mr.
Benbow, and secondly by Mr. S. Whitbread, on a
motion for an address to his Majesty, praying him
to direct the Attorncy•Gcneral to enter a null pro-
:qui in each instance of indictment preferred by the
gang. The infamy of their proceedings continues
to develope itself every day, and we are convinced
that every honest man who is one step above an
idiot, will instantly insist upon the erasure of his
name from a list of subscribers to un Association,
the theory of which might have induced him to be-
long to it, but of whose practice too much cannot be
said in reprobation. The Let we believe to be, that
a man equally bankrupt in purse and character con-
spired with an equal in infamy to found the Society,
and by specious representations seduced ninny really
honest men to become members—fiir having become
the dupes of design they may be pitied—by with-
drawing their names, instantly they may avoid the
eternal obloquy that must otherwise attach to them.
—We rarely praise the Members of Government fur
the strongest possible reason, that they rarely merit
it,,but we must not withhold our high approbation
of the conduct of the Attorney-General, who de-
clared he would inquire into these cases, and where
hardship appeared he would direct a discharge, on
bail being given for their appearance only.
The following (Geo. 111. 60. cap. 6, sec. 16.) is
the clause upon which bail for good behaviour has
been demanded:—

'• Any of his Majesty's courts of record at 'Westminster or
Dublin, or of great session in Wales, or any judge thereof. or any
coutt of general or quarter session, or any justice before wlnnii
any person charged with having printed or published A blas-
phemous, seditious, or malicious libel, shall be brought for
the purpose of giving bail on such charge, may take it part of the
conditi.m of the recognizances, that the person charged shall be
of good behaviour during the continuance of the recognizance."
It will be remembered that this was one of the
Six Gagging Acts passed under the patronage of
Lord Castlereagh, in December, 1819.

A fine woodcock was shut at Arrowroot, about
eleven miles from Exeter, on Thursday, and pur-
chased by Mr. Congdon, of the hotel, who furwarde.l
it to London.
