my diplomatic relations with that kingdom. The
state of a country so long united with this by the
ties of the most intimate alliance must necessarily be
to me an object of the deepest interest, and the
return to Surope of the elder branch of the illus-
trious House of Braganza, and the dangers of a dis-
puted succession, will requite my most vigilant at-
tention to events by which not only the safety of
Portugal, but the general interests of Europe, may
be affected.

" The arrangement which I announced to you at
the close of the last Session, for the separation of the
States of Holland and Belgium, has been followed by
a treaty between the five Powers and the King of
the Belgians, which I have directed to be laid before
you as soon as the ratifications shall have been ex-
changed. A similar treaty has not yet been agreed
to by the King of the Netherlands ; but I
trust the period is not distant when the Sovereign
will see the necessity of acceding to an arrange-
ment in which the Plenipotentiaries of the five
P- - have unanimously concurred, and which
framed with the most careful and im-
ention to all the interests concerned. I
satisfaction to inform you that I have con-
'h the King of the French a convention,
lave directed to be laid before you, the object
is the effectual suppression of the African
le; this convention, having for its basis
tssion of reciprocal rights to be mutually
in specified latitudes and places, will, I
tble the naval forces of the two countries to
dr by their combined efforts an object which
both to be so important to the interests of
trding the state of Europe generally, the
assurances which I receive from Foreign
and the union which subsists between me
inspire me with a confident hope that
not be interrupted.
I ENTLEMEN OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS,
te directed the estimates for the ensuing

iugs of the public inhis matter, and the more
so because there exists in this and other nor-
thern nations a kind of sentimental attachment
for the mortal remains of the dead, which, in
southern countries, is scarcely felt, as it
was also quite unknown to the Greeks and
Romans. The custom of burning dead bo-
dies, though inconsistent with our habits and
notions, was one highly conducive to public
health, and not at all calculated to efface the
memory even of the insignificant dead, inasmuch
as their ashes were preserved in urns. But the
ancients, who understood the nature of man,
and separated his intellectual from his physical
existence, far better than the moderns, held it
as foolishness to let the earth be cumbered with
human carcases, after their spirit had fled into
another region. Their cities did not contain
church-yards raised as high as houses, concen-
trating and dispensing pestilential effluvia far and
near. Their proceedings were more simple, and,
as some will still think, far more sensible than
ours. They burned their dead, knowing that by
so doing they could not affect that immortal
part, which was beyond their controul, and not
being disturbed by any of those confused eccle-
siastical surmises in regard to the resurrection of
the identical body, which have in a great degree
introduced the practice of burying in coffins, and
the sentimental attachments and fears which
prevail so largely in Britain and other nations,
springing from Gothic races.
It is plain that the prevention of diseases, and
the preservation of public health, are of the first
importance to the happiness of society. But
without anatomical knowledge in the medical
profession, the usefulness of that profession for
the cure and mitigation of diseases, must neces-
sarily cease. 'What, therefore, can be of more
urgent public moment, than the furnishing to
our surgeons and their pupils the same means of
instruction as exist in Paris, and other great
cities on the Continent, and which in London
it is equally easy to afford them ? It is both dis-
graceful to this country, and bard upon the
medical students, to drive them abroad for the
purpose of obtaining the requisite knowledge.
We do hope that Mr. WARBURTON, who has
already so laudably exerted himself, will not let
this matter rest. It has as plainly led to a sys-
tematic course of murder as any effect was ever
yet known to be produced by any given cause.
