awful episode of the reign of terror, describing a most
extraordinary scene, in which the executioner of
'l4°uis the Sixteenth induces a priest and two

Ig!rvice for the unfortunate King. In the " Popular

DUBLIN UNIVERSITY.
~ The present number opens with an article on
_p uosas and La Plata," describing the rise and fall
of power of that general. It is followed by
i h
Leaves from the Portfolio of a Manager," which
tne,, ,i
luie the visits of Sir Walter Scott and George
otirth to the theatre. There is a second number
"1 The Life of Lord Jeffrey" and the tale of " The
s'eirs of Randolph Abbey," 13 continued. There are
o
°le Pleasing and graceful verses, entitled " A Sum-

.0 this number there is a continuation of the " Ad-
ventures of an English Soldier in Mexico," which is
tertaining; a second chapter on " Gun Carriages,,,
deseribing the different modes carried on by various
nations relating to this subject. There is likewise a
very
amusing story entitled " Captain Tremlet's

of Information on this important point.

COLBURN'S NEW MONTHLY.
„The most interesting article in the number for
-Vino is the " Survey of Danish Literature from the
Earliest Period to the Present Time," evidently taken
from William and Mary Howitt's recently published
volume on the same subject. No. 2of " Female
Novelists" is descriptive of Mrs. Gore and her writ-
PR% and though the admirers of that authoress will
:el hardly satisfied with the share of praise allowed,
rthe catalogue and criticism of her works will be found
itertaining. " Young Tom Hall's Heartaches and
is continued, and " Hester Somerset" ap-
proaches its conclusion. An article on " Scottish
Tirllninal Trials," and a review of " he Life and
lh tiles of Francesco Sforz 3," may be mentioned among
it variety of tales and notices which are to be found
usual adapted to all.
