manuscript notes, are bequeathed to this University; after-

Rev. Mr. Hughes, of Emmanuel College, and Christian Ad-
vocate.

ROYAL. ACADEMY.—Last night Mr. GRrEN
delivered his sth Lecture on Anatomy at his Institution. He
proceeded in the first place to describe the muscles of the abdo-
men, which serve to protect the viscra and assist the import-
ant process of digestion, and likewise the principal agents in
bending the trunk backwards and forwards. He next pointed
out the manner in which the ab.lorninal muscles contribute to
the action of respiration, and described the motion which the
ribs undergo in deep breathing. In touching on the muscles
of the upper arm, he enforced his former remarks with respect
to the scapula, and strewed its adaptation for varied and quick
motion in consequence of its junction at only one point with
bone, and of its being, as it were, imbedded in muscles, which
enable it to move with ease and rapidity. We have not follow-
ed Mr. Green through the details of this lecture, as it consisted
of a mere technical description if the muscles of the abdomen
and upper arm, and would, of course, have little interest for
general readers.
'!'he remains of the late Admiral BINGHAM
