It is said M. MATUSCEWITZ has the merit
of aec'leratine the settlement of affairs between Belgium
and Holland, in consequence of his representations at the
Court of St. Petersburgh.
Letters from Calcutta to the 10th of Feb.
are of the most favourable description. The great shock
to the commercial affairs of India from the late failures,
appears to have been gradually subsiding; confidence had
been in a great measure restored, and trade was again

reviving.
New York Papers to the 18th May contain
nothing of interest to the European reader. At Alexan-
dria and other places the inhabitants had entered into
strong resolutions, condemnatory of the late outrage upon
the PRESIDENT.

Unlike other " fashionable novels," for the
characters in the singular tale of " Godolphin" are, with
few exceptions, represented as belonging to the upper
classes, the object of the story is to hold up to scorn the
Aristocracy. To effect this purpose, the heroine, at the
very outset of the narrative, is bound by a solemn oath to
devote her ingenuity, her energies, and her life, to the
abasement of the titled ranks. The scene in which this
promise is exacted, is one of those passages in fiction
which are doomed to fix themselves on the mind of the
reader, never to be shaken off.
Mr. BULWER'S new work is to be called
"6 England and the English." It will comprehend, we
understand, sketches of living characters, anecdotes of
society, examinations into the genius, habits, amusements,
politics, literature, religion, &c., of the English of all
classes. In those portions of the volumes which treat of
religion and politics, it is said that the writer's design is to
defend the Established Church against its numerous assail.
ants, whether sectarian or infidel, and to discuss the over-
whelming influence of the British aristocracy, which has
been thought by many to be no less an incubus on the
energies of the people, than on the just and wholesome
power of the Monarch.
ADVICE GRATIS.—A certain Judge, after
hearing a florid discourse from a young lawyer, advised
him to pluck out some of the feathers from the wings of his
imagination, and put them into the tail of his judgment.
ROYALTY.—I was in the robe-chamber ad-
joining the House of Lords, when the KING put on his
robes. His brow was much furrowed with age, and quite
clouded with care. And is this all the world can give
even to a King ? All the grandeur it can afford ? A
blanket of ermine round his shoulders so heavy and cum-
ber,cne, he could scarcely move unthr it ! A huge heap
of borrowed hair, with a few plates of gold and glittering
stones upon his head ! Al's, what a bauble is human
greatness ! And even this will not endure! Cover the
head with ever so much hai r and gold, yet

ANECDOTE OF THE LATE LORD BYRON.
—When this distinguished nobleman, soon after his mar-
riage, was on a visit at the house of his father-in-law in
Leicestershire, he was mach annoyed by the frequent
quarrels of Sir RALPH MILBANKE and his lady. One
morning, Lady MILPANKE came into Lord BYRON'S room,
and weeping for the loss of her favourite dog, earnestly
requested him, as soon as convenient, to write an epitaph.
His Lordship replied, "I shall never be more at leisure
than at the present moment: give me pen, ink, and
paper," which being complied with, he immediately wrote,
Alas! poor Trim ;
I'm sorry for him;—
I had rather by half
It had been Sir Ralph.

COURT OF KING'S BENCI-1-(THIS DAY.)

Their LORDSHIPS were occupied all the forenoon in
hearing arguments upon a rule for changing the venue of
a trial. The names of the parties we forbear at present
from publishing. The defendants were two clergymen,
residing in the county of Suffolk, who had been capitally
indicted for an offence of a most revolting description,
and the case having been already removed into the Nisi
Prius side of the Court, the defendants made this further
application for fixing the trial in some other county, in
consequence of the improbability of their getting an im-
partial trial in Suffolk, owing to the great prejudice excited
there by the horrible and disgusting nature of the offence.
Sir JA➢tES SCARLETT and Mr. ANDREWS, jun., for
the defendants, appeared in support of the rule, and Mr.
BOLES against it.
The COURT ordered the rule to be discharged, con-
ceiving that there were not sufficient grounds for believing
that an impartial trial would not be had ; and at the re-
quest of the Counsel for the prosecution, and by consent
of the defendants', Counsel, ordered the defendants to
find security for any costs that the Judee at the trial might
consider the prosecutor, who was a labouring man, en-
titled to.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)

DEXTER D. THE INIIAPITANTS OF STAMFORD.

This action was brought to recover compensation for
damage done to the premises of the plaintiff, who is an
innkeeper, during the late election for Stamford.
Mr. KELLY obtained a rule, early i❑ the term, calling
upon the defendants to show cause wLy he should not
have leave to amend his declaration, by substituting the
word "borough," i❑ place of " hundred,' as applied to
Stamford.

Mr. Hxr.rxman appeared this morning to show cause,
and contended that the plaintiff was now too late to re-
cover, the time allowed by the Act of Parliament having
expired, and even if not he contended further that the
Court had no power to grant the application, inasmuch
as there was no such place in existence as the
Hundred of Stamford, which put the case upon a
totally different footing from chat amendment which
was a common one, the substituting one Christian name
fnr another. He said this was the second action of the
kind he had ever heard of, and he trusted if it went to
trial it would share the same fate as the former one. It
was tried at Hertford, before Mr. Justice Patteson, who
nonsuited the plaintiff, on the ground that the Act of
Parliament required that a capital felony must have been
committed before a plaintiff could recover for damage at
election riots.

Mr. KELLY was about to support the rule, but
Mr. Justice BAYLEY said there was no occasion. He
was of opinion that it must be made absolute. It was
evidently a mere slip, and it would be too much that the
plaintiff should be precluded from trying his case upon the
merits upon such a trivial error.
The other Judges concurred, and the rule ,was made
absolute accordingly.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Our arrivals this morning are not of importance.
Accounts from St. John's, in the Quebec papers of the
9th of May, state that several vessels have arrived from
the ice with good trips of seals, and bringing favourable
accounts of others, but it was too early to form an opi-
nion as to the result of the fishing in general.
(From the Miramichi Papers of the 16th of April.)
We have had little intercourse with the opposite side of
the river during the last week, the ice being unsafe even for
foot passengers. On Saturday we had they satisfaction
of seeing it move downwards ; hut towards the evening
it was checked by a heavy squall from the north-east.
The Prince Edward Island Legislature closed on the
6th of April.
New Brunswick Papers to the Ist May have been
received at the North and South American Coffee-house,
but they do not contain any news.

THE FUNDS.

Consols, which left off yesterday at sof s for the Ac-
count, are not so good this morning, owing to the sudd.n
departure of the Dutch Ambassador from London.
We aie informed that he has requested leave of absence
from his Government for several days past; still his de-
departure excites some anxiety to the speculators, who
cannot account for the cause of it. _ _

According to the best information, the Emperor of
Russia will strictly adhere to his treaty, and withdraw
his troops from the Ottoman empire. In the Foreign
Market no business doing as yet. Accounts from Portu-
gal are anxiously looked for.
We just hear that a vessel has arrived from Oporto (a
merchant ship), which brings letters of the 24th and
28th ult. Ail we hear at present is that there was no
further bombardment to the 24th, nor any fighting.

HALF-PAST ONE.

Letters have been received from Oporto of the 24th ult.,
and a passenger has landed at Weymouth, who sailed from
the above city on the 27:h ult., but he does not state any
news in his letter to his friend in London •, consequently,
we must conclude that nothing of importance has occurred
up to the above date.
It is now stated that M. Dedel, the Dutch Ambassador,
is going to bring his family over to this country.
Cunsols reached this morning 9O 91 ; at present
they may be quoted 931 a for the Account.
In the Foreign Market all Securities have improved
since the early part of the morning.

BEULAH SPA, JUNE 7.—Mrs. FITZHER-
BERT, in company with the Earl and Countess MONSTER,
visited this Spa yesterday, and expressed herself highly
gratified with the grounds and scenery. Among the visit-
ere were many of the Nobility and Gentry, who are daily
visitants at this fashionable retreat.

STARS VISIBLE IN DAYLIGHT--The stars
continue visible through telescopes during the day as well
as the night; and that, in proportion to the power of the
instrument, not only the largest and brightest of them,
hut even those of inferior lustre, such as scarcely strike
the eye at night as at all conspicuous, are readily found
and followed even at noonday,—unless in that part of the
sky which is very near the sun,—by those who possess
the means of pointing a telescope accurately to the proper
places. Indeed, from the bottoms of deep narrow pits,
such as a well, or the shaft of a mine, such bright stars
as pass the zenith may even be discerned by the naked
eye; and we have ourselves heard it stated by a cele-
brated optician, that the earliest circumstance which drew
his attention to astronomy was the regular appearance, at
a certain hour, for several successive days, of a conside
rable star, through the shaft of a chimney.—Sir J. Hers-
chel on Astronomy—Cabinet Cyclopedia.

LITER ATTIRE.

GODOLPHIN. 3 Vors. LONDOIP, ISSS.

Godolphin is a tale that displays some inven-

tive power and considerable knowledge of cha-
racter, as it is moulded by the artificial, con-
ventional usages of, what is called, high life.
The author, however, is too fond of making a
parade of his metaphysical lore, by which the
progress of his tale is very considerably ham-
pered. He digresses over-much, which gives a
stiff, laboured character to his fiction, and also
suggests the notion that he is but a gleaner in
the same field which Mr. Bulwer has success-
fully reaped before him.

CHARACTERISTI CS of GOETHE. 3 VoLs.

LONDON, 1833.

This translation, which is throughout remark-
able for its spirit and accuracy, is by Mrs. Austen,
a lady who has already distinguished herself by
the graphic vigour which she threw into her
translation of Prince Puckler Muskau's clever
but coxcombical " Travels in England." Those
who desire to become acquainted with the inte-
rior—if we may use such a term—of Goethe's
literary thoughts and feelings, will find them-
selves abundantly gratified by a perusal of these
volumes. The illustrious author of " Faust,"
by common consent, one of the master-minds of
the age, is here en dishabille.

GENEALOGICAL AND JIERALDIC HIS-
TORY OF THE COMMONERS OF
GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND.

The third number of this gigantic undertak-
ing has been published, and now lies before us.
It contains the pedigrees and family histories of
some eighty country gentlemen. Among these
are those of Abney, Aglionby, Vans Agnew,
Austen of Shalford, Oates of Denton, Berkeley
of Spetchley, Bulwer of Heydon, Chidde of
Orleton, Constable of Wassand, Cromwell of
Cheshunt Park, Ord of Nuninkirke, &c. &c.
From the abundance of communications the

proprietors appear to receive, we conjecture that
the work receives from the Commons of Eng•
land the patronage its design merits.

RUSH'S RESIDENCE IN THE COURT
OF LONDON. LONDON, 1833.
Mr. Richard Rush, Envoy Extraordinary,
and Minister Plenipotentiary for the United
States of America at the Court of London,
from the year 1817 to 1825, is the author of
this volume. It is penned in an easy, concilia-
tory, gentlemanlike spirit, by a scholar, a man
of the world, and one who is practised in all the
courtesies and refinements of the most polished
circles. Mr. Rush every where speaks of Eng-
land and Englishmen as an enlightened American
should do ; he neither flatters nor undervalues
the habits and peculiarities of the country of his
forefathers. " The truth, the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth," is the guiding principle
of his volume—a principle which it is to be
wished some recent English travellers had held
more in remembrance when they penned their
piquant strictures on America. We subjoin an
extract, descriptive of the author's first diplo-
matic dinner at Lord Castlereagh's :
" January 30, ISM—Dined at Lord Castlereagh's
The company consisted of Lord and Lady Castlereagh, the
Earl of Westmoreland, Lord Melville, Lord Mulgrave, Mr.
Wellesley Pol-, the Duke of Wellington, Lord Burghersh,
the Ambassador of France and his Marchioness, the Aus-
trian Ambassador, the Portuguese Ambassador and hie
Countess, the Minister Plenipotentiary from Bavaria, the
Marquis Grimaldi of Sardinia, and a few others. Of the
foregoing, some were strangers, to whom, as to myself, it
was a first dinner.
" The invitation was for seven o'clock. Our names
were announced by servants in the hall, and on the land-
ings. The company bad chiefly assembled when we ar-
rived. All were in full black, under the court mourning
for the Princess Charlotte. lam wrong—one lady was
in white satin ! It would have been painfully embar-
rassing, but that her union of ease and dignity enabled
her, after the first suffusion, to turn her misfortune into a
grace. Salutations were in subdued tones, but cordial,
and the hand given. Introductions took place at conve-
nient moments. Before eight, dinner was announced.
The dining-room was on the floor with the drawing-
rooms. As we entered it through a door-way surrounded
by a banging curtain that drew aside, the effect was beau-
tiful. A profusion of light fell upon the cloth, and as
every thing else was of silver, the dishes covered, and
wines hidden in ranges of silver coolers, the whole had an
aspect of pure white. Lord Castlereagh sat at the head.
On his right was the lady of the French Ambassador,
with whom, in going in, he had led the way. Lady Cas•
tlereigh was on the side, half way down. On her left,
was the Duke of Wellington, with whom she came in.
Between the Duke and the Earl of Westmoreland, was my
wife, who came in upon the arm of the latter. Opposite,
was the lady of the Portuguese Ambassador. She entered
with the French Ambassador, and sat next to him. I
was between Lords Melville and Mulgrave. The former
gratified me by the manner in which he spoke of the
United States ; the latter by what he said of President
Monroe, who was Minister in England when he was Se-
cretary for Foreign Affairs. He had ever found him, he
said, conciliatory in business, while steadfast in his duty.
Being near to these two noblemen in coming in, I paused
to give place, having understood that Cabinet Ministers
preceded Ministers Plenipotentiary on these occasions; but
they declined it, and I went first ; Lord Melville remark-
ing, 'We are at home.' There were twelve servants ; the
superior ones not in livery.
" The general topics related to France, and French
society. The foreigners spoke English ; nevertheless, the
conversation was nearly all in French. This was not only
the case when the English addressed the foreigners, but
in speaking to each other. Before dinner, I had observed
in the drawing-room, books lying about. As many as I
glanced at were French. I thought of the days of Charles
11. when the tastes of the English all ran upon the models
of France. Here, at the house of an English Minister of
State, French literature, the French language, French
topics were all about me ; I add, French entrees, French
wines ! I was unwilling to believe that the parallel to the
days of Charles 11. held throughout. By my longer resi-
dence in England I discovered, that the enlightened classes
were more ready to copy from the French what they
thought good, than the same classes in France to copy
from England. As regards language, the difference is
striking. There is scarcely a well-educated person in
England who does not speak French, whilst thousands
among the best educated in France are ignorant of Eng-
lish. In the competition between these great nations,
this gives England an advantage. It is no answer that
French is the language of intercourse in Europe : the
Frenchman may repose upon this, for not acquiring the
English ; but it cannot take from Englishmen the advan-
tage of being at home in both tongues. Equally have the
English the advantage in travel. They go in great num-
bers to France ; while few of the French, comparatively
speaking, visit England.
" Soon after nine, the ladies left table. Before ten, the
gentlemen followed. The company broke into knots, or
loitered through the drawing-rooms. In one, was a full-
length likeness of the Prince Regent. by Lawrence; in
another, the celebrated portrait of Charles I. by Vandyck,

vases of massive porcelain and other memorials, sent as
presents to Lord Castlereagh by the crowned heads of
Europe, after the treaties of Paris and Vienna. I had
now conversation for which opportunities had not before
offered. The Austrian Ambassador told me, that his
court had appointed Baron Sturmer, Consul-General to
the United States. He said, that it was the wish of his
court to cultivate amitehle relations with the United
States; the more, as foreign commerce had become an ob-
ject with Austria. I replied, that nay Government would
receive the information with satisfaction. This was the
first public officer sent by Austria to the United States,
