BALLOON ASCENT.—Wednesday afternoon, at five
o'clock, Messrs. Claw and Racer ascended la a magnUlcent
balloon from the yard of the Bell Inn, Bothester. The balloon
was balloted from the Rochester Gas Weeks, ha the mem et the
day, and measured forty feet in diameter, and was sixty feet Sigh
containing 20,000 feet of gas. It had bees previously exhibited
gratis, and its beauty attracted universal approbatloo. About noon
uumeroas parties peered into the city to witness the gratifying
spectacle, and at twenty minutes before five o'clock the balloon was
let loose, and the adventurous aeronauts ascended amidst the shoots
of the spectators; the balloon took a direction towards Ralnhana,
but continued in sight a considerable time. The balloon dracesid,A
at five o'clock in the afternoon, about a MOO and a half from the
village of Newington by Sktingbourne, in a bean field of Mr.
Haanerr's where they received every attention, and a post-chaise
was procured from Sittinebourne, and they arrived at Rochester
about a quarter before ten o'clock.
Reuses ArsLar.—This new historical Novel, by the
author of Brambletye Home," will, we hear, soon be before the
Public. The eta chosen by the writer (that immediately preceding
the great Revolution of is crowded with events of the most
powerful interest. The struggle on the part of James the Second
to establish Popery in the Kingdom ; his temporary success over
his opponents in the defeat of the Duke of Monmouth's invasion •
the sanguinary Westin under Judge Jeffries; and the final
triumph of the Pricier or Orange, are undoubtedly admirable ma-
terials for the pen of a Novelist.
DIABASE," on THE Eart.—The Eleventh Anniversary
Meeting of the Governors of the Royal Dispensary for Diseases of
the gar was held, lately, at the Inetitutioe, when it appeared that.
since the establish/sent of the Charity, la 1816, upwards a 6,6411
patients have been received, 2,620 cured, and 1.980 relieved. Out
of this number, 200 persons, &filleted with nervous deafness, who
were out of enapiorneot, have been eared or relieved, and thereby
rendered capable of following their various avocations. At this
Meeting, the Surgem of the !latitudes, Mr. Comm, remarked
how little attention had been paid to this important organ, in con-
sequence of its mechanism being so extremely complicated and
little known; bet observed, that it was only by a-knowledge of Its
anatomy, joined with daily experience in practice, that its physiology
and diseases could be thoroughly understood: hence these consi-
derations should be a powerful incentive to its study; for, bad me-
dical men rested satisfied with what was formerly known of the
complex mechanism of the heart, the great discovery of the circu-
lation of the blood would never have taken place, for it is only by
persevering investigation that we can arrive at our object; and he
assured the Governors, from the liberal encouragement that he
had received, nothing should be wanting on his part to extend the
knowledge of acoustic surgery. At this Meeting, several deaf
and dumb patients were presented, who bad obtained their bear-
ing and speech; and Mr. Caroms, before leaving the Institution,
Mewed several novel and ingenious instruments, which be has
lately introduced.
AMELIA One, once the poet and novelist, but now
the fair Quaker of N .rwich." has been in town at-
tending the yearly meetings of the" Society of Frienfis,"
it their establishment in Bishopsgate street. The ex•
teariporaneous orations in public o: this accomplished
Lady are highly spoken of.

LITERATURE.
The Spirit and Constitution of titer Church ; in their
Jetsam to the generql Welfare 'of tie State. By the
Rev. CHARIAS MACKIE, M.A. Rector of Quatley.

Hants, and Don:tetteChaplain to his Royal Highness
the Duke of Clarence. 1 vol. Bro. Murray, 1827.

• Believing with Vial button th it the best supports of
the State are made of the wood of the Cross, and that
is purity of doctrine and ritual, the Church of England
may challenge a comparison with any of the other Re-
med Churches of Europe, we rejoice to witness every
effort on the part of its Ministers to deepen the founda-
tions of our common faith by extending the influence
and utility of our national Church. When we think of
the many illustrious names which adorn the smelt of
Episcopacy-of the venerable majestic Hooker—the
pious and eloquent Jeremy Taylor—the learned acumen
1 and irreftagable reasoning of Barrow, South, Bull.
' Waterland, and a whole host of other Divines who
have distinguished themselves on this " well foeghten
field," we feel that it is almost superfluous, at this time
rot day, to think of defending institutions which received
the unqualified assent and approbation of men so illus.
itvious for their learning, talents, and sincerity. We
wish not to depreciate the motives 'or labours of the
Dissenters, a numerous and powerful body, or to un-
dervalue the Church of our Northern Brethren, so op-
posite in form and constitution to our own. Religion,
like the sea, is kept pure and healthful by its internal
agitations, and we haves vivid and very pleasing recol-
lection of the simple worship of the Scottish Church,
with its accompanying hills, and glens,' and streams,
