Am. Outline of the System of Education at New Lanark.
By ROBERT DALE-GWEN. B.u. pp. 10.
The author (son of the tienevolert Robert Owen, Esq.)
informs us that this system " differs essentially
-from any
that has breech adopted in a similar institution in the
United Kingdom, or, probably, in any other part of the
world." This induced us to examine it with some care;
and we have no hesitation in saying that it appears to
us to be better supported by its intrinsic excellence than
by several of the arguments-employed to recommend it.
In some of its details fir. Owen has, we think, been an-
ticipated by M. Pesialoz24 of Switzerland. They are,
however, none the worse for this: on the contrary, Mr.
ON-en deserves praise for introducing into his schools
any modes of teaching which the experience of others
has already proved to be benefit.ial.
The chief, hut not the only novelty which we disdo-
ver in, the system is, that " all rewards and punishments
tehatever, except such as Nature herself has provided,
are sedulously excluded, as being equally unjust in
themselves, and prejudicial in their effects. Unjust—as,
on the one hand loading those individuals ss ith sup-
posed advantages and di4ictinns, whom PROVIDENCE,
either in the formation of their talents and diipositions,
or in the character; of tfOir parents and associates, seems
already to have fa.), oured ; and on the other, as inflicting
farther pain on those, whom less• forturiate,•tir less fa-
vourable circumstances, have already formed into weak,
vicious, or ignorant—or in other words, into unhappy
beings.
" And prejudicial—..in rendering a strong, bold cha-
racter, either proud and overheating, or vindictive and
deceitful ; or in instilling into the young mind, if more
timid and less decided, either an overweening opinion
oL its own abilities and endowments, or a'dispiriting idea
of its osvn incompetencrsuch an idea as creates a sill-
len, hopeless despondency, and destroys that elasticity
Of spit it, from whence many of our beSt actions proceed,
but which is lost as soon as the individual feels himself
stank, mentally-or morally, below. his companions, dis-
graced by
.punishment, and treated with neglect or con-
tempt by those around him."
Few will entirely deny this statement : indeed we are
disposed tn.:tin:it a considerable portion of it ; but
when. we ask, What is meant by excepting such rewards
nod punishments as Nature herself has provided, we are
instantly lost; for though the author informs us that
" he means the necessary consequences, immediate and
which re-alt from any action," it is no solution
of the difficulty to tel us, that "at New Lanark the
child who acts improperly •is not considered an object
of Manse, but of pity;" and that' we must carefully
impress on his mend how intimately connected his own
happiness is with that of the community—a principle
that requires only a fair statement to en Unbiassed mind
to make it evident ;" for though it may be asserted that
" this task* is by no means difacultl" and that 41 pd-
t)ishaients of Nature will prove ever watchful • moni-
tors," the pupil must have transgressed before he can
be visited by 'her inflietions; and her necessary
ference shews that the effort of The teacher " carefully
to impress" his doctrine on the mind of the pupil, has
failed in its object. We mean not to .deny that, to a
certain ettent, by " artificial rewards and punishments-
the chat's notions of right and wrong are often rendered
confusedr" but this is-only When injudiciously adminis:.
tered; for as Nature herself dispenses rewards. and pu-1
nishments, the person whO has the care of children.
.should follow her example; otherwise be acts an unna-
tural part. If a.child be caught thrusting pins into flies, is
he not to learn what. pain is till a horse; protobed by simi-•
tar treatment, shall bleak some of his bones by a kick?
The school-rooms are large, airy, and well adapted
for their object, but we cannot dwell on the description.
The tour of teaching are six in different tinies of the clarb
but the mere infants fiom two to five years remain In
sthool.ofily half that tiine, and (luting the iernainder
are allowed to amuse theinselves, in a large paved yard,
under tlie.raharge of a young woman, who can keep a
hundred of them' in more order- with less difficulty than
• meat-individuals experience in conducting a nursery of
itwo'cir three children. The dress of the children in the
elaylc boobs-composed of 'strong. white.cotton cloth of the
best. they are changed three times a week,
The. branches of instruction at present. taught are,
Reading, Writing, Alithmetic, Sewing, Natural ,His-
tory, Geography, and Ancient and Modern History;
ffinginiai-d Dancing. And as powerful means for fa-
cilitating the acqpisition,of the scietttific branches,, spe-
cinsens•ot.objects of Nsiturat History, and drawings on
a large scale, executed on• glazed canvas, are-exhibited
to •thepupils ; with plans of Mathinety, Maps, &c. &c.
It is impossible to bestow too much praise on this part
Of the system, and the pains taken thus to store the minds:
of the pupils with'a large stock of natural. knowledge.

True Religion, according to Mr. Owen, if we under-
stand him rightly, can only be the result
.of evidence,
resting on a knowledge of natural facts. 'flint is, he
seems to substitute Autural Science for Religion. But
we are not.cerrain that • We have tightly apprehended
his meaning on this point. The Scriptures of the Old
and New Testament are however read in these schools,
ig not as being considered the proper method of con-
_ reying religious instruction to the minds of young
children, but becduse the parents, it is believed, wish
it." But no matter what the motive. Let the Scrip-
tures be but read and we shall sever question their
power to »lake wise unto salvation.
The most exceptionable point krt the publication be-
fore us is the denial of the truth of what the Scripture
states respecting tie natural depravity of mankind.
Accerdii:,.; to Mr. it is uot.true that the heart of
man is deceitlal and desperately wicked, and yet he al-
lows That " it is undeniable, that the Ptik:SET CHA-
WACTEA of mankind is neither a sieeere nor a virtuous
one," and that " perfect sincerity would expose its pos-
sessor either to ridicule, to hatred, or to the imputation
of insanity." To admit this and yet deny the truth of
tilecsoriptute statement appears to us inconsistent: In
that ancient record—despised as it is by ruanyvtill tie
found the best argument employed by Mr.-Owen to re:
conamentl his.system, though expressed in other, and in
very fens words,—"troin rep a child in the way in.which
lresshastleigo, ant& hen he is old he will not depart from is:
Wit the larneouble,exception which we have .stated
this wotkiis.creditable to the author: and it is the
stlete-tcrlie regretted that in detailing a system which
haiattnany,exCellent points to recommend it, the author
slioii,lickhiprentade a statement altogether uncalled for by
isuyshisiktgo d i tiga lust ystem, witether considered prac-
tically, or as regarding its ultimate effects on the pupils.

'THE STVittrE.
TO-THE EDITOR OE lUR STAJL
Sia—lOn several recent occasions the Public Press of
England has teemed with abuse of the unfortunatetamily
of the Stuarts, and especially of Prince Charles EdWard,
respecting whom, as well as his consort, the late Countess
of Albany, various incorrect statements tave appeared
in different Newspapers. As it happens to me 'to he
better acquainted than most people in this country with
the history of the Stuart family, r am induced to trouble
you with a short statement which may; cnrreet some of
the el rors that I have alluded to.
Prince chailes Edward, grandson of James 11. ss-.13
fir,t mat ried to the Piincess of Stolberg ; he afterwards
I:1 ivately married Lady Clementina Walkinshaw,whose
lather was created Earl Walkinshaw by James 11. T:iis
Nobleman was the principal agent in settling the mar-
riage of. Prince James, known in this country by the
name of the Chevalier St. Georgerwith the daughter of
Sobieski, King of Poland. Lady Clenteptina Walkin-
shaw had been brought up by the Queen, • her, god-
mother, whose name she bore, and her union with the'
Prince may be easily acccunted for, since they had been
companions from their infancy. From the marriage of
Prince Charles with this Lady, there was issue a daugh-
ter,
and only child, the Duchess of Albany. For some
tithe the-Duchess was considered illegitimate; but 06-,
mately she succeeded to the property of her father
Prince-Charles as his lawful heiress, without any oppo-
sition from hei uncle the Cardinal Duke-of York, who,
from mctives ton long to explain, wa, her inveterate
enemy. Upon the-second marriage of Prince Charles,
he dropped the title of King,. which had been ailetsow-
Jedged by all the Catholic Courts, and took the name
4.,f Count of Albany. The scandalous conduct of the
'Countess of Albany is well known. After the death of
'Alfieri, with whom she lived openly as his mistress in
,`her husband's lifetime, she intirgtred with several other
!individuals, the last of whom was a Frenchman of low
:birth, of the name of Fabvre. the decease of.the Car-
dinal of York, nearly ore half of the pension of
14,000/. a year which had been a short time previously
granted to him by his late Majesty, was continued to,
!the Countess.

, Notwithstanding the vile calumnies to which I have
'Siready adverted, it is certain that Prince Charley
Edward was amiable. and noble-minded, and possessed
talents and -virtues calculated to adorn the throne,
which he considered his lawful- inheritance. The pro-
clamation which he issued in answer to one setting a
high price on his head, is a striking proof of his magna.
'nimity.—As to his courage, which has been called in
question, his deeds speak for him. At the head of a
few undisciplined Highlanders he conquered several
well-appointed armies successively, until his hopes were
finally blasted by the unequal conflict of Culloden.
'The secret history of that period shews, that had it not
'ken for the treachery of France, and the disunion and
jealousy which prevailed among-his principal followers,
,he might easily have obtained possession of London.
I have reason to believe that a•cieseendatit of this un-
ifortimate iiince is in existence. Few persons know the.
fact (which yet I am assured is true), that the Duchess.
.of Albanrabove-mentioned, the daughter of Charles
I.talward,' married a Nobleman descended from the &ail
of Darnley, husband to Mary Queeu. of Scots. The
,union was kept secret on account of his being a Pro-
testant, but on the birth of a son to.this Lady, the mar-
yiage was disclosed to Prince Charles Edward, who not
Only pardoned his daughter, but gave his own name to
the boy. This grandson is said to be living ; but
lit:is-added, helm, been the sport of that cruel fortune
:which has so long weighed down• his family With an iron
„band: Though, still. in the-Priebe Oflife; iii hai„
alit last ttvelve years, met with• such a 'variety, of com-
plicated misfortunes) as, if related, would appeiralmost
incredible: In poverty and seclusion he sopports. his
situation with a fortitude worthy of a better fate.
. If it be not trespassing too much upon,your columns,
the following authentic anecdote may serve as an an-
swer to some of thkcalumnietwitli which- the character
of the noble but unfortunate Charles has been assailed.
',Brave, accomplished, and adventurou's as a Knight-
;,lti rant, Prince Chalks- Edward returned a-second time
toe a country, his former escape- from whiCh had'beeo
iatnierst miraculous, and whete•his head was still a high,
!priced object. England was just respiiing after the.
:bleody scenes of the year 17416,,when in 1749 the
'Prince, on the faith of a. Angleattendastt, set out for
:London its disguise, assuming the- n;me of 'Smith.
!Shortly after his arrival, he was introduced at-midnight.
into a room full of individuals devoted to his cause,
put whom helms/ never seen: " Here," said his C 011:
ductor, " is the person you want, and left hilts
! " d
locked up with this mysterious assembly,. consisting of
:persons who at that period considered' themselves qua-
Meth° treat with him respecting;tbe Throne of- Enk
;land. " Dispose of me, Geuilethen, as, you please," said
die. Prince, " My. life is in your power, and I therefore
'can.stipulate for nothing. But give-me, I intreat, your
..solemn promise, that it your enterprise should succeed;
the present. family shall be sent' safely and' lionout ably
home." For a-few days the noble adventurer was
flattered with the glorious prospect of success, until dif-
ficultiet arose on the part of the French 'Arnbassador,
whose COurt had again cooled in the Stuart cause.
Charles remained on: the rack of suspense fur a week-in'
London,. where. he was recognized' in the street's by.
several individuals, but (such was ever his only good
fortune) nobody betrayed him, He then retuined to
Paris, never again to behold the proud seat of his an-
cestors.-1 am, Sir, your obedient Servant, .X. Y.

Friday morning, about one o'clock, an alarming fire
broke out in title Carron Works, North Back of the Ca-

consumed the whole building wherein it. originated.
Considerable apprehensions were 'entertained for the
safety of the neighbouring houses; but, by the active
and timely exertions of the firemen, they were fortu-
nately preserved. A great concourse of spectat'ors were
ranged on the Calton Hill to view the spectacle, which,
for a considerable time, was most sublimely. terrific.
POISONOUS QUALITIES OF SMOKED PFIOVISIONL,-..,..
MC. G. Kerner, a physician at Stotgard, has first dis-
covered a new species of poison proceeding from smoked
provisions: it appears from experiments which he has
made, that such provisions become subject to a species
of decorrapokition, which renders them poisonous. Sau-
sages made with liver are most.liabk Wit; and de
composition generally, takes place towlrds the middle.
of April. Dr. Kerner has ascertained, that of 72 persOns
in a district 'of Wrinensbers, who partook of smoked'
sausages, 37 died in a. short taste, and the others con-
, - tiutr4i ill fur a longer or shorter period.

Leo Gsths, aged 26, was charged with the wilful
murder of John Jones, at Liverpool. The prisoner
pleaded Not Guilty. From the evidence it appeared that
the deceased had-been in the, employ of Messrs. Smith, I
at Liverpoobas a sawyer. In the meta: of February
some dissatisfaction was expressed by the pi ironer and
ethers of the men on account of the lowness of their
*wages, and they strutk for an advance; several ac
cofdingly left the factory, but were not backward-in
_persecuting those who remained: He was retuning
home on the night of the 9th of February, accompanied '
by his son, when they were accosted by the prisoner
and two others; the former, drawin a formidable
bludgeon from his breast, struck the deceaSed a blow on
the back of the head. The old man immediately said,
Oh, what have I dont to deserve this blow?" and the
son begged the prisoner not to murder his father : the
prisoner replied, if he did not.get away he would mur•
der him/rim, and made a.second blow at the deceased,
which felled him to the ground ; on the watch being
called, the prisoner said, " Curse him, give.hirn hrs•
death blow," and again struck him on the head; he was
them taken into custody, and"on the deceased being con-,
veyed home, it was aster tained that besides the blows.
on the back of the head, be had- received two terrible'
wounds, and the skull was also fm actured by the thbd
blow.—The prisoner declined saying anything in his.
defence, and was found Guilty..
Mr. Justice BAYLEY iiddilted the prisoner in the
most feeling and impressive terms, and forcibly pointed
out the evils arising 'from illegal combinations.
Lordship-concluded by pronouncing the. a wful sentence
of the law, and ordering his body tl be dissected and
anatomised. The prisoner; upon hearing the sentence,
was much affected,,and requested time tn....cc his wife
sand children, then in Liverpool.—Mr. Justice
appeared affected at the prisoner's distress of mind, and'
directed his wife and children to be sent for; when the
'prisoner replied,'" Thank you, m) Lord; God bless you,"
H. Cloy Hall, a respectable soap-boiler, was indicted
;tinder various counts, for having maliciously sat fire to'
building occupied by him at Liverpool, on the 23d or
July, with intent-to defraud John Barber Beaumont,
!Esq. of the. County-Fire-office. There were several other
r-outits, charging him with intent to defraud other persona.
Mr. LiTTLZDALS stated the case, and was proceeding
to call witnesses; When Mr. Justice BAYLEY asked it
there Was any evidence to be brought forward of a claim
destine removal of Property?
. The Counsel for the prosecution said there was not.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY.—Where, then, is the intent to
'defraud ? If he set the place on fire, surely lie could not
!have recovered store than the value of the goods de-
stroyed. - I cannot conceive what motive he could have
or doing so.—After c-)nsiclerable discussion on the sub-
, the charge was -abandoned, and a,verdict of at-
4y:tie! was. taken on the indictment for the capital of-
tence, and for the misdemeanour.
HannahWhitehead,a female of respectable connexions,
stood charged with the murder of her infant daoghter,
.by drowning her in a well.. From the evidence, it ap-
peared that on the 7th of October last the attention of
some persons was directed to a well at Oldham, where
they found the prisoner in the water, and also the child
quite dead. Several persons who had known the pri-
soner some years, said she had been the mother ofeleven
children, but lately had been very rambling in her
mind ; she was very fend of them, but when sucklingi
appeared particularly dejected.
The Jury, under his Lordship's direction, acquitted:
the prisoner on the grounds of insanity.;—An applica-
tion was then made by the poor .woman's friends to take
:her home, intimating she was intitled to an annuity
!under her father's w ill.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY observed, the prisoner was at the
disposal of the CrOwn, but, promised to wiite to the
Flume Department on the subject.

: Silverly: Thornton, a very little boy, fourteen years of
;age,. was capitally convicted of setting fire to the ropery
VI-. Messrs. Duncan, at Liverpool, on the 7th of January
ast. The circumstantial evidence against the prisoner
as very conclusive ; in addition to which, h` had made
'full-confession of his guilt to several persons, and at
liferenr times. No motive appeared for liii conduct,
he:denied that he had been incited:to the crime by
ny other persons.—l The Jury strongly recommended
:him to merry on account of his youth, in which they
'were joined by the prosecutors:-

""of Richard, his infant son, of three mtinttis old, if ti
Sec:Rd:by: adminlitering to him oil of vitriol. The pril
.soner, a man apparently about 35 years of age, was-,
.employed in a...carpet manufactory, in which oil of.
-vitriol is used, aqd it appeared that he took a quantity,'
and gave' it tirthe child, who shortly afterwards died.—
The Jury, found. Him Guilty. -
Mr—Justice PAstK,iiis passing sentence of Death, stated'
'that from the depositions before the Coroner, it was
disclosed that the unhappy woman, who was now the
w ife of his bosom, was with child by him before mar-
riage, and that lie often expressed'on that account' a
hatred to the infant and her: who hi
stood erecVat the bar,. almost as unmoved as a statists
during the. trial, was taken from the, bar without m
riifesting any emotion. . . . • .:
Winder Popery, an interesting boy, was sentenceiFto
six weeks! imprisonment for stealing some cakes from
Jane Veysie, at Kingswood. His mother died before he
