SIR RALPH ESHER, OR ADVENTURES OF
A GENTLEMAN OF THE COURT OF' CHARLES 11.-Speak-
ing of this interesting work, which has just made its ap-
pearance, a contemporary observes—" There are many
considerations which give this singular production peculiar
claims to public attention and curiosity. In the first place
it is the coup d'essai, in its particular line of composition,
of one of the most elegant scholars, acute thinkers, quick
observers, and graceful and original writers of the day. In
the next place, it is a novel sui gentris, for though (in
conformity to the fashion of the day) it is in every respect
a work of fiction,' yet (in conformity with the para-
mount passion of its writer) it is in all particulars true to
histi rical fact. Of all the numerous ' real ' personages
and events mentioned and introduced into it, not one is
(advisedly we mean) at variance with the actual circum-
stances which belonged to him, her, or it, respectively, in
the authentic records of the time. We look upon this as
a very high merit in many points of view."
OPENING OF PARLIAMENT BY GEORGE
IV.--About half-past two appeared the KING, the only
one present in full dress, and, indeed, from head to foot
arrayed in the ancient regal costume, wearing the crown,
and holding the sceptre in his hand. He looked pale and
bloated, and was obliged to sit, for a long while, on the
throne before he could gain sufficient breath to read his
speech. During this time, he gave some kindly looks and
condescending greetings to certain of the moat favoured
among the ladies present. On one side stood Lord LIVER,
POOL with the sword of state, and, on the other, the Duke
of WELLINGTON. All three appeared so miserable, ash-
grey, and superannuated, that mortal greatness had never
before seemed so truly little in my eyes ; indeed, the tragic
side of all the comedies we are playing here below fell
heavily on my heart. Yet a lively feeling of the ludicrous
also rose within me to see the mightiest monarch of the
earth thus forced to stand forward as the principal actor
before a public in his own opinion so immeasureably below.
In truth, the entire scene of the entrance and exit, with
the costume of the KING, forcibly reminded one of the
style in which historical dramas are here produced : and
it only wanted the obligato flourish of trumpets, which in-
variably accompany the coming and going of the Sbakspe-
man Kings, to render the illusion complete.—Prince
Puckler Muskau's Tour.

is more easy than to criticise disaster ; or more tempting,
where success is to be flattered by depreciating greatness.
But impartial posterity will assign the relative places of
NArotEort and WELLINGTON :-to the former, according
to his vast and marvellous career ; the traits of inspiration
and discovery with which he enriched the annals, and
extended the boundaries of the art of war ; the point
whence he rose to a supremacy before which men bowed
their actions and their minds; the impress of his genius
upon the age which he lived ;—to the latter, according to
the general tenor of his achievements, the resources at his
command, the period of the great contest between feu-
dalism and revolution in which it was his fortune to ap-
pear ;---to neither, according to the unscrupulous but dis-
interested zealots of a fallen chief, the partisans who laud a
prosperous patron and party leader with parasite eulogies,
or the catastrophe of a single, however momentous, battle.

Our readers may recollect having read some
time ago an article dated Aloscow, which was
said to have been inserted in the Moscow
Gazette, the official organ in that part of the
Empire—and which article contained as pretty
a sample of political bombast and gratui-
tous libel on England, as any disciple cif Don
MIGUEL, or admirer of Lord ABERDEEN,
could wish for. It now turns out, however,
that the libel in question, like most other inven-
tions in that way, however well intended for
party purposes, was a deliberate falsehood. It
was even worse, for it had a particle of verisimi-
litude whereon to base its fraudulent attempt a
imposition. But the thing was expected to tell
for a time—and perhaps it did with those who
either did not take the trouble to question its
authenticity—or what is far more likely/
did not care one straw whether it was true
or not. Well, the falsehood has had its
run of ricketty celebrity, and now meets
the reward of all such attempts at imposition—
it is disowned by its reputed but calumniated
authors—and consigned to the scorn of those
who were silly enough to have become its dupes.

We are glad to find that the British Museum
is henceforth to be opened every day in the
week. Hitherto it has been, for one day out of
the six, shut out from the public—for what rea-
son it would puzzle the most adroit casuist to
explain ! If it were fitting to open it for five,
it was equally fitting to open it for six days
in the week ; but our Ultras seem to have acted
on the principle that it was injudicious to allow
too many and too frequent facilities for the im-
provement of mind; and that, therefore, the
more they excluded the public from exploring
the curiosities, or studying in the reading-
room of the British Museum, the worse it would
be for intellect, consequently the better for the
perpetuation of their own sway, which could
only be perpetuated by throwing (apparently
without premeditation) every obstacle in the way
of the advancement of the public mind. But
this new system is now to be done away with,
and in the unreserved opening of the British
Museum (trifling as at the first blush it may ap-
pear), we hail the commencement of a new and
a better order of things.

Our readers may have read in a fable the ac_
count of a certain animal (we shall not say what animal)
which tried in its gambols to imitate another animal, and
succeeded so ill as to be scouted for its pains. If they
have ever read this fable, the particulars of it will be
brought to their recollection by the following occurrence.
Lord LONDONDERRY, following the example of the Duke
of WELLINGTON, read an address to his MAJESTY at the
Levee yesterday, from the " 'Prentice-boys of Derry,"
praying his MAJESTY not to give Lis consent to a measure
so injurious to the best interests of the county as the Re-
form Bill. His MAJESTY was gaciously pleased to observe,
in answer to Lord LONDONDERRY, " Very young advisers,
I think, my Lord." We suppose this good-natured but
intelligible rebuke will put such addresses out of fashion._

INIEMOIRS.—III the course of the
allusions so frequently made to this work by Mr. Cuoiczn

to have spoken of the publication of the work as having
taken place " a few years ago in rather a bulky form."—

aware of the recent appearance of another edition in

An article dated St. Petersburgh, expresses
not only astonishment at the imputations con-

COMPLETION OF THE POLAR VOYAGES.
—The Third Edition, in octavo, accompanied by all the
fine maps and engravings which embellished the first im-
pression of this delightful work, is, we understand, nearly
exhausted. "Of all the records' of adventure or geogra-
phical discovery with which modern literature has been so
much enriched, we do net know of any production that
recalls so much of the excitement, enthusiasm, deep and
affectionate interest, which we used to take in ' Captain
Cook's Memorable Narrative,' as the work before us.
The story of this seventy thousand miles' adventure amongst
the fairy scenes of the Polynesian deep, seizes upon us with
all the charming force of the best of the Oriental tales, and
ceases to engage our feelings and imagination only when
the history itself is exhausted."—...lllonth/y Review.

A Court was held this morning for the despatch of city busi.
iicss. Among the motions on the paper, for discussion, was
one for considering the propriety of petitioning Parliament for
the repeal of the soap duty, as a means of promoting cleanlln ms
among the poor. The Lord Mayor took the chair at Tw•e'ce
o'clock.

Mr. J. DIXON complained that the City Solicitor's Bill b,

The CITY SOLICITOR explained the causes of delay in
making out his bill.
