" At a -mozent when tine minds Of all men. are
occupied with the extraordiary events which- -have
sprung from the French Revo,lution, it will. be 're-
garded as not a' little astonishing, that Nature,
whose laws are immutable, and independent of hu.

_produced .and- preserved
in.a labratior, I—and in Russia, the precious image
of the unforu,late Monarch who .has been its must

mounted bia pomegranate-coloured Crown, with
a 'rainbow border and a small white plume, is of the
finest blue, upon a ground of grsen ;old, and streak-
