Isle to the branch of one of the engines, and if a means of
access to the burning Luilding presents itself, in he wil

several instances he has been :punished smartly for his
temerity, but seems not at all to mind it. At a 'fire in
Bow-lane, after an upper floor was wholly consumed,
with the exception of the joists, he amused himself by
hopping from joist to joist, while the fire. was raging all
stonnil him. At last he missed his footing, end !ell into
the cellar, whence he was rescued with considerab'e
difficulty. At another time, when one of the firemen
bad a torch, he made a snap at the blaz,,, and burnt his
mouth and face severely. A few months back the men
procured him a brass collar, on which the following distich
was engraved :

Stop me not, but let me jog,
For I am the fire establishment dog.'!
iShortly after, at a fire in Spitalfidds, the dog.was
and is supposed to have been stolen, for on his return,
about three weeks afterwards, he was in a ken condition,
and the collar was missing. He is a large doe, somewhat
between the Wick-tanned terrier and the poirver breed.
The firemen, as may be supposed under the circumstances,
are much attached to the dog.

The WILL of a most EXTRAORDINARY
CHARACTER—the late JULIAN HIBBERT, Eq.

The will and codicils of the late Julian Hibbert, Esq.,
of Hampstead, who rendered himself so conspicuous by
tiie open avowal of his atheistical opinions at the Old
Bailey &asions, a short time ago, open the trial of Henry
Berthold, for stealing a boa, has just been proved in the
Prerogative Court of Canterbury, and the persenal effects
have been sworn under 8,000/. Mr. Hibbert died sod-
denly, in the month of February. The executors who
have proved the will are William Devonshire Saul, of
Aldersgate-street, wine•mer6ant ; John Brooks, of Ox-
tord.street, bookseller; and Robert Ewen, of the Black-
friars-road, coal-merchant. The tenor of the will (which
is in the handwriting of the testator) affords a curious
syecimen of the character and opinions of the deceased.
Mr. Hibbert resided in a secluded cottige in the neigh-
bourhood of Hampstead ; his charity was unbounded, and
indiscriminately bestowed epee those whom he considered
deserving, without reference to their• religious creed. He
was a classical scholar, a man of remarkably gentlemanly
habits and address, and the author of several talented
works, to none of which has he Axed his name. lie
appeals to have imbibed an enthusiastic fondness for the
productions of Volney, Voltaire, Rousseau, Mirabeau, and
the other philosophers of that school, several of whose
works he has translated and published. Si tenacious was
be of adhering to the truth, under any circumstances,
that he has frequently stated that it was the fear of being
supposed to prevaricate with regard to his religious opi-
nikin, that induced him to make the hold declaration which
brought down upon hint the censure of the Judge, and
the pointed animadversion of the counsel and jury, upon
Berthuld's trial. By his will Mr. Hibbert directs his
body to be given to an anatomical School, to which he had
for many years been a subscriber, for the porpusts of dis-
section. He pa:ticwarly requests that no person may
wear mournaig for him, or that any ostentatious notice
should be made of his memory. He bequeaths 492/. to
Messrs. Cunningham and Salmon, the printers, in Fleet-
street, that being the suet in which Carlisle was indebted
to them, and being in place of a legacy he intended to leave
the latter. There are also several other handsome legacies
to Hetherington, Watson, and several other publishers.
He had bequeathed the sum of 500/. to the Rev. Robert
Taylor, but this he has revoked by a codicil, in conse-
quence, as he states, "of his having married a lady of large
fortune, and that be therefore considers it would now be
an insult to him." He provides very handsomely for his
housekeeper and other domestics, to whom, during his life,
he had behaved upon the most liberal scale. He never
himself partook of animal food, but lived in the most rigid
and abstemious manner pssible. During the confine-
ment of Taylor in Horsemonger-lane gaol Mr. Hibbert
supplied him with every comfort that he could require.
Mr. Hibbert had some lauded property, and the residue of
his estates become the property of his sister, he having
died a bachelor.

NAPOLEON'S BED-ILOOM AT ST.

HELENA.

It was about 14 feet by 12, and 10 or 11 feet in
height. The walls were lined with brown nankeen, bor-
dered and edged with common green bordering paper,
►nd destitute of surhace. Two small windows without
'Allies, looking towar.s the camp of the 531 Regiment,
one of which was thrown up and fastened by a piece of
notched woed. Window curtains of white long-rAoth, a
small fire-place, a shabby grate and fire-irons. to match,
with a paltry mantel-piece of wood; painted white, upon
'vhich stood a small marble bust of his son. Above the
mantel piece hone the portrait of Maria Louisa, and four
or five of young Napole. n, one of which was embroidered
by the hands of the mother. A little more to the right
hung also a miniature picture of the Empress Josephine,
—anti to the left was suspended the alarm champ.-r-watch
of Frederick the Great, obtained by Napoleon at Potsdam ;
while, on the right, the consular-watch, engraved with
the letter B, hung by a chain of the plaited hair of Maria
Louisa, born a pin stuck in the nankeen lining. The
floor was covered with a second hand carpet, which had
once decorated the dining-room of a Lieutenant of the
St. Helena Artillery. In the right-hand corner was
placed the little plain iron catnp,bedstead, with green silk
curtains, upon which its master bad reposed on the fields
of Marengo and Austerlitz. Between the windows there
was a paltry second-hand chest of drawers; and an old
bookcase with green blinds stood on the left of tire door
leading to the next apartment. Four or five cane-bot-
tomed chain, painted green, were standing here and there
about the room ; before the back door there was a screen
covered with nankeen, and between that and the fire.
place an old-fashioned sofa, covered with white long cloth,
upon which reclined Napoleon clothed in his white morn-
ing gown, white loose trousers and stockings, all in one,
a chequered red Madras upon his head, and his shirt-
collar open, without a cravat ; his air was m"-lancholy awl
troubled. Before him stood a little round table, with some
books, at the foot of which lay in confusion upon the car-
pet, a heap of those he had already perused, and at the
foot of the sofa, facing him, was suspended a portrait of
the Empress Maria Louisa, with her son in her arms. In
front of the fire place stood Las Casa., with his arms
f,lded over I►is breast, and some papers in one of his
hands. Of all the former magnificence of the once migh, y
Emperor of France, nothing was present except a superb
wash-hand-stand, containing a silver basin anti water-jug
of the same metal, in the left-hand corner.—A Voice from
St. Helena.
