RIDICULOUSNESS.—No man is ridiculous for be-
ing what he is, but simply for affecting to be what he is not.
The late rise of the rate of discount by the Bank
of England is equal to a property tax to the same amount,
imposed by Parliament upon the whole mercantile community.
MILTON AND CHATEAUBRIAND. —ln his
" Sketches of English Literature" (the translation of which
is just published), Chateaubriand has treated at considerable
length of Milton. He analyses his different works, shows
that revolutions have approximated him to us—that he is be-
come a man of our times—that he was as great a writer in
prose as in verse—that prose conferred celebrity on him duria
his life, poetry after his death ; but that the renown of the
prose writer is lost in the glory of the poet.

• The number of ships of all nations that passed
the Sound in the month of June 1,175 ; from the North Sea,
&c.,576; from the Baltic, in all, 1,751. Of these, there were
English—from the North Sea, 381 ; from the Baltic, 138 ; in
all, 439, or a fourth purt of the whole. There were only 20
French ships from the North Sea, and two from the Baltic.
VIENNA, FEB. 13.—Charles X., who passed
through the purlieus of Vienna, on his way to Giirz, stopped
at the castle of Erlau, a quarter of a league from Schonbrunn,
which was purchased some time ago by the Duke de B:ucas,
where he was formally received by the clergy. The King of
the Two S •te3 went cn the some day to Erlau to wait on the
head of the B,.urbons.

TIL
E DIARY Or A DESENNUYEE.—The pro-
found mystery in which the authorship of these volumes has
been wrapped up has added, in no slight degree, to their in-
terest in the Fashionable World. They are evidently the
production of one who has had the supreme privilege of entree
into the very highest—the most exclusive—societies, both in
London and Paris. The work is, in truth, a vivid picture of
High Life, revealing much of the faults and foibles peculiar to
those who delight to fret their hour in the sunbeam of fashion.
The. author is a satirist of no ordinary power, but though
caustic and biting, the censure is well applied, and will, if we
mistake not, be felt by many who may fancy themselves be-
yond the reach of admonition.—Sunday Times.
