Professor PROUST has ascertained that grape su-
gar, when drained of its molasses, may bt! Made
perfealy white, and to possess a full, pure flavour,
without the least remnant of a vegetable taste or
smell. From his experiments on this subjeCt, he is of
opinion that all the efforts of the sugar-baker should
be direeted towards the crystalization of this sugar
in the most granulated state possible; as, grape su-
gar crystalizes considerably quicker than that.madu;
from cane. ,

Trom some experiments lately made to • ascertain
the true cause of the noise emitted by water belOre
it' boils, and which is usua}ly called simmering, it
appears, that the common idea of its being in con-
sequence of a rapid escape of interspersed- air from
the heated water is erroneous ; but that it -arises
from. the midden production and condensation Of
steam bubbles, from the bottOtri of the Vessel, in
• their ascent through the colder fluid, above ; and
that consequently water already heated does not
simmer so much• or so loudly' as that
,which is sud-
denly raised from a low teinperature.

ROYAL ACADEMY.

No. 7r. A Sleeping Girl.—M. A. Sl-rF E, R. A.

. This is probably a ,Portrait, but it is treated in
a .poetical- manner, and is marked by richnesS'and,
beauty that class it among the best of the Artist's
works this year: The scene exhibits a pleasing se-
clusion, and the general warmth that overspreads it
may naturally be expeeled to invite repose.
No: 77. Portrait of: the Right
_Hon. Earl Camden.--1

HorrN i;t, R. A

- .
-There is not only the merit of strong resemblance
in this' Portrait, but. it is conveyed in a dignified
style. The Pidlure altogether displays a grand and
courtly .aspea. The attitude is graceful and striking,
without the least appearance of study and affee-ta-
tion. •

No. :43. A Girl at a Cottage Dior.—R. %VESTAL!, R. A.

The merit of this Artist in, subje&s of a rustic
kind-A; well known and justly admired. The
infantile chargter is 'admirably represented, and
the features are marked by an interesting simplicity.
We are not quite satisfied that the figure of the Old
Woman in the interior is quite as large as it ought
to be,. considering its nearness, and compared with
the size of the chief objeal. ;lut the Pi&ure, on the
whole, is one of the most pleasing ornaments of the
Academy this year.
No. 183. Portrait of, the Right HOn. Sir %V. Scott.--J.
HOPYNER, R. A.

A higher giatification than that which a contem-
plation of the works of Genius produCes, must arise
from the consideration that it: is employed on sub-
jects which deserve public attention and respeCt. Such
is the case in the present instance. The charaCtet'•
of the estimable original of this Portrait is kmowu to
the world at large by high talents, extensive learn-
ing, and an impartial and enlightened execution of
the important office he holds. The likeness is exalt,,
and the figure altogether expresses the firm and dig-
nified charaeter of a Judge who .is not to be de-
ceived.by artifice, or warped by any thing from Ole
determinations of Truth and Justice.

a A sound mind in-a sound body, is a short but-
full description of a happy state in this world : lea
that has these has little more to wish for, and he.
who wants 61116-, be little the better fa- any
thing else." We have not the temerity to attinpt
the refutation-,of"an-opinion advanced,by one of ottr,
profoundest philosophers (LocKE) but, without
courting the severity of criticism, we may ohserve,
that at the period -in which his elaborate treatise on
education was written; the Guide to Health wa!, not
in existence, nor had the country been blessed
with the discover), of the Cordial Balm of Gilead.
