LITERATURE.

THE LIFE OF BENVENUTO CELLINI

London : William Smith.
We are glad to see this work, which we remerw
ber to have read some years ago with great satisfac"
tion, included in Smith's Standard Library. Ben'
venuto Cellini was one of the most distinguished..
artists of the Florentine school, and the history of
his life, written by himself, and commenced in the
fifty-eighth year of his age, may not improperly be
designated the history of the fine arts in Italy during
the greater part of the 16th century. It is very
beautifully printed, and published at a price so low
as to place it within the reach of the humblest book
purchaser.

INCIDENTS OF TRAVEL IN EGYPT,
ARABIA, AND THE HOLY LAND. By
J. L. STEPHENS, Esq. London : illia Smith.
A cheap and beautiful reprint of Travels in the
East by an American gentleman, who has merito-
riously established for himself the reputation being
of one of the most elegant and trustworthy of Ame-
rican tourists. We trust Mr. Smith will include
in this series the same author's travels in the Rus-
sian and Turkish empires.

HOME.
By Miss SEDGIIICK. London: William Smith, 1839.
This is another reprint of one of the best domestic
novels that the new world has produced. Miss Sedg-
wick has here exhibited a more correct delineation of
social life in Ameriea, than is to be met with in tt
pages of any work with which we are acquainted.
There is a novelty, a freshness, and a truthfulness in
her sketches which charms every reader of cultivated
taste.
BOULOGNE, SEPT. s.—This tow'

11 is nOW
crowded with company, although the weather has been
anything but attractive; indeed, so boisterous has the
weather been, that it it were not for the excellence of our
harbour, and the blessings of steam navigation, the inter-
course with England must have been for some days inter-
rupted. Although a tremendous sea was raging, Captain
June, who it is well known does not mind trifles, came in
from London, on Monday morning, with 98 passengers;
the Magnet, Captain Stocks, going out the next morning,
in equally bad weather ; and on Tuesday night, the Erne_
raid, Captain Wingfield, came in, when the weather was. if,
possible,
much worse, ani without any lights or sign:,
,cs
being exhibited to him, although it was.nine-o'cleleliest
and extremely dal k. In fact the vessel was not exile rAed,
and harbour-men, touters, hotel-keepers, and dont niers,
were all hastily set to work. But the fact is this be.r'eour is
so much improved by being recently derpeer ed five
feet, that steamers can now come in at nearq ' ,ow water
during the neap tides. If we have had iser orted from
London crowds of gay and fashionable comps ay,
to add that we have also had some of tile, swell mob to
carry on their purloining propensities.
Mr. Bellamy, an
English brewer in this town, was on
;th we regret
e pier on Tuesday
afternoon, at five o'clock, with a crinsiderable number of
persons, when his pocket-book 'was withdrawn from its
retreat, with a bill for 500 frane,s, and notes for the same
sum. Immediately that he •r*,iscovered his loss he ran for
one of the police, and on return he saw his pocket-
book floating in the harbour, with sundry memorandums,
&c., but no cash notes, We have had nothing of this
kind eceur since a Frenchman was detected, on the quay,
in broad daylight, picking Mr. Solis, the music-master's,
pocket of his handkerchief. But those who thus make free
with that which is not their own, had better be cau-
tious in their pursuits, as the punishment is no trifle; for
although branding and the chain are no more, still being
sent to the gallies for ten years will `be found no pleasant
recreation.
The Capitok, although an anti-English journal,
has entered the lists on the side of the advocates of free
trade. In order to show the anti-free trade feeling which
hasactuated the different Governments here, whilst England
and other countries have been pursuing a different course,
it publishes a table, showing the increase of the duties on
English manufactures since 1814. In some of them the
duties of 1814 have been trebled, and in others actual
prohibition has succeeded the admission at moderate duties.
It is impossible that the Government can hold to its present
absurd and unjust system. It is understood that in conse-
quence of the great questions which agitate Europe, the
Chambers will be summoned in the early part of November.

victed at the Somersetshire Assizes of the wilful murder of
Eliza Payne, at Worle, suffered the extreme penalty of the
law on Wednesday morning on the drop in front of Itches-
ter Gaol. There was a very large concourse of' persons
to witness the execution. The unhappy man for some
time past showed great contrition for his crime.
Yesterday morning, between seven and eight -
o'clock, a fatal accident occurred to James Reckolls, a coal
porter, who was engaged removing sacks of coals on his
back, from a barge near Beaufort. buildings, when, from the
spring of the plank, he fell into the river, and before assist- i
ance could be rendered he was drowned.
