SINATE LOUIS PIIILIPPE AND HIS SONS.-BELL'S LIFE IN
LONDON of Sunday next, August 9, will contain a spirited
Engraving of the late atrocious attempt in Paris to destroy by
means of an infernal machine the lives of the King of France
and his Sons, including the House from whence the murderous
discharge of twenty-five musquet-barrels took place. The
death of the Duke de Treviso, and the other unfortunate vic-
tims of the assassins, with all the appalling features of the
tragic scene, illustrated by an accurate letter-press description
of the horrible event Price of Bell's Life in London Seven-
pence. Published on Saturday afternoon, at the office, No.
170, Strand, at three o'clock, and to be had of all News-agents
in the United Kingdom. Bell's Life in London is the only
Sporting Journal now. published.
LITERATURE. IN AUGUST, 1835.—Notwithstand-
ing the engrossing nature of various important political ques-
tions, the charms of literature still assert their delightful sway.
And what intellectual being can resist their influence? Who
that takes any interest in the great events which form the basis
of our religion, will not dwell with veneration over Chateau-
briand's eloquent description of his " Travels to Jerusalem and
the Holy Land?" Which of our great landed proprietors will
not refer with pride to Mr. Burke's national work, " The His-
tory of the British Landed Gentry ?" Who that has not already
perused Mr. Poole's " Comic Sketch Book," can long refrain
from the enjoyment of it ? And, at a time when the affairs of
Ireland are so forcibly occupying the public mind, what person
of patriotic feelings will neglect to inform himself of the true
state of the sister kingdom as exhibited in " Sir John Bar-
rington's Memoirs of Ireland and the Union," a new edition
of which, enriched with forty portraits of the great leading
characters connected with her history, has most opportunely
appeared? This is, indeed, the age for cheap literature, when
such works as the last mentioned, and " Garrick's Private Cor-
respondence with the most Emineut ,Persons of his Time,"
may be had for considerably less than half the price of the first
editions. The above works are published for H. Colburn, by
R. Bentley, and may be obtained of any respectable book-
seller throughout the kingdom.
FRENCH LITERATURE.--PIGAULT LE BRUN.
--The best of French novelists is no more. The gay, the
witty, the amiable Pigault le Brun has expired at the advanced
age of 83. The author of the inimitable history of " Jerome ;"
" Monsieur Botte ;" " Mon Oncle Thomas;" " The Barons
de Felshein ;" " Nous les sommes tous," and a score of other
unrivalled novels, sleeps the last sleep. Pigault le Brun was
the French Fielding ; he possessed. the same humour, the
same truth to nature, the same graphic powers of descrip-
tion, the same occasional coarseness, and a far greater richness
of imagination. It is now sixty years since Pigault began to
write. He was the best novelist of the day during the revo-
lution, and in his own peculiar department the best after it.
His Mademoiselle Javotte in the amusing " History of Jerome
the Foundling," is, notwithstanding all her errors, a creature
whom it is impossible not to love—as sweet a creation as
ever was pourtrayed by the imagination of a poet. Corporal
Brandt in the " Barons de Felshein," is in no wise inferior,
and quite as good in his way, as the inimitable Caleb Balder-
stone of Sir Walter Scott. His characters start, upon our
remembrance by dozens, and so vividly as almost to make us
imagine that we had gleaned knowledge of them from the
life, and not from the pages of fiction. Pigault le Brun has
died full of years and full of honour, and his mantle has de-
scended upon another apostle, worthy of so distinguished a
predecessor. Paul de Kock is the writer who has cultivated
wit the greatest success the style of Le Brun ; and whose
works in their vigour and freshness, repay us for the sickly
and morbid sentimentality of the majority of contemporary
French novelists.
LONDON AND MARLBOROUGH STEAM COACH.
—The steam carriage drag, which has been advertised for the
last month to run between London, Reading, and Marlborough,
started on Monday, at five a.m., from Hyde Park-corner. The
omnibus attached to the drag was filled with a respectable
company, who took breakfast at Fetcham, about eight o'clock.
At half-past eight they again started and passed through Read-
ing, about half-past 10 o'clock, and arrived at Newbury, 56
miles, at 12 o'clock. On Kingsford-hill they were met by the
Bath coach, one of the leaders of which shied at the noise of
the steamer, and fortunately broke loose from the traces, or a
serious accident would most probably have occurred. At this
place a number of cavalry soldiers were ordered out to escort
the steam coach through the town, as there was much ill feel-
ing exhibited on the part of the lower order of the inhabi-
tants, who get their living principally by the stage coaches
passing through the town. The steamer left Hungerford at
20 minutes to one, and completed the remaining 10 miles by
by two o'clock, when they reached Marlborough, running the
whole distance of 75 miles in eight hours and a half. After
remaining about an hour at Marlborough, the steam coach set
forward on its return to town, but in attempting to ascend
Marlborough-hill, which is very steep, some, part of the ma-
chinery gave way, and after a vain endeavour to repair the
damage it was found necessary to procure the assistance of
seven horses,; who drew it up the hill, when the journey was
continued at a pretty good rate to Newbury, where the omnibus
was detached and left behind ; the drag continuing its course
to Reading, about two miles from which, at a place called the
World's-end, it also stopped, being unable to go further.
During the night the machinery was repaired, and the
" steamer" was got under weigh early in the morning, and
arrived at Hyde Park-corner about half-past 10 o'clock. In
the course of this journey of 150 miles, the difficulty that
arose was in ascending the hills, by which the machinery was
strained, and ultimately broken. Much inconvenience was
really felt by the numerous stage-coaches which pass on this
road, from the noise of the machinery and the novelty of the
machine causing the horses to " shy ;" and two or three in-
stances of narrow escapes from this circumstance occurred.
On a former occasion Moody's Windsor coach narrowly escaped
being upset, the leaders taking fright and breaking their traces
t when close to a deep ditch.

YORK AUGUST MEETING.
YORK, TUESDAY EVENING.
The attendance of horses certainly exceeds what might have been
expected, for the excessive hot weather has rendered the race-
grounds, as well as most of the training places in the north, so hard,
as to make trainers rather shy of bringing horses out at the risk of
destroying. their feet, if not of their breaking down. Our course,
however, is far from being so hard as might be anticipated, and a
shower which fell on Saturday night, together with a good crop. of
short thick grass, have combined to make it in excellent running
order; the plates have filled beyond expectation, and all augurs
well for the sport. Of the quality of the competitors, the appear-
ance of the list does not promise great things ; yet we have on oc-
casions seen a winner of the Leger conic forth from a less imposing
list. The weather is exceedingly fine, and a good show of com-
pany is looked for. The innkeepers have given a plate for Satur-
day, and 75/., the gift of the Corporation, which was proposed to be
added to some stakes which did not fill, is intended to form another
stake for that day, so that the meeting will continue four days as
usual. As yet, little or no betting has taken place. Lord Kel-
burne's hprse is the favourite for the three-yrs-old Produce, and 6
to 4 is laid on Matilda, for the four-yrs-old Produce to-morrow,
which rests between her and Medea. The trainers complain much
of the Stakes not being sufficiently advertised, as, had they known
of them earlier, tfscy would have brought many more horses.
The following is a list of horses arrived :
