ATHENIE OXONIENSES: The HISTORY of
all the WRITERS and BISHOPS who hare had their
EDUCATION in the UNIVERSITY of OXFORD, from
the Year 1500. To whitli are added, FASTI OXONIENSES;
or, the Annals of the said University. First written by AN-
THONY A. WQOD, M.A. of Merton College'; and now very
considerably augmented, in Text and Notes.
By the Rev. PHILIP BLISS, D.C.L.
• Fellovi of St. John's College, Oxford.
In the present republication of this valuable body of English
Biography (containing upwards of two thousand two kindred
Lives,) every word of the two former editions has been retained
w,ith exact fidelity, so that the curious reader is no longer sub-
j6ct to the troublesome necessity of collating the btiok as first
published by the author, with the subsequent' Edition given to the
world by Bishop Tanner. Besides the text of the two former
Editions, that now offered to the Public contains a vast number
of notes by Bishops Humphreys,.Kennet and Tanner by Sir
Philip Sydenham, Dr. Rawlinson, blr.-11.:ker' Gray, I:oveday,
' Macro 3lorant, Peck, Wanley, Whalley, .cad Watts, with se-
veral by the present Editor, and many of great value, which have
beer. communicated by intelligent persona now living ; add to
whith, each volume contains some few new lives of persons
whose conuection with the Call/crafty had escaped the indus-
trious enquiries of the Oxford biographer.
Subscribers not yet having received all their volumes, are re-
coannunded to complete their sets without delay, as .the pub-
lishers cannot undertake to supply any separate volume after
six months has elapsed. The wcirk may be bound either in four
or in five volumes, at the option of the purchaser; if the latter
mode be adopted, the " Annals of the,University" now attached.
to the second and fourth volumes, by being placed together,
form a fifth volume.

Annus d Aunts

•Ilos.

Thy house, and (in the cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
SOCRATES, by his discourse on Marriage, co en-
raptured his auditors with the subject, that the married
men gew to their wives, and the bachelors hastened to be wedded;
and " The Spectator" has affirmed, that the word " wife" is the
most agreeable and delightful name in nature.

The sacred institution, then. of marriage, compasses the de-
sideratum of our enjoyment; teeming not only with happiness
on earth, but disposing the soul itself to harmonize with bliss
hereafter.
Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation,
it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions,
but to cleanse the grosser nature froin those impurities which
the freedom of unrestricted pleasure nay have entailed upon it.
To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those '
hapless instances, whir* while they excite the commiseration
of the beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self-
reproach.
Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in the
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the'
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the
natural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the ago-
nized sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief.' To all
such, then, we address ourselves, offering hope--energy--ntus-
cular strength—felicity ; nor will our advances appear question..
able, sanctioned as they are by the niultiplied proofs of twenty
years successful experience.
The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the
suspension of thirte blessings which concentrate the nuptial
wreath—for the female habit is often constitutionally weak
yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into
functional power.
In every tale of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every re.:
laxation of the generative economy, we pledge our ability td
cure.speedilf, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the
unfeeling empyric &nisi the position so prettimptuouortako4
up, we deviate froth general principles with less hesitation; au.
confident in our own honourable integrity as filembers.ot the
College of Surgeons, we refer the suffering community of either
sex (especially those .entering into matrimonial life) at once to
our house; where' daltfattenslance is giveti .for perking:l con-
mikados); and letters from the Country ate immediately an-
swertal ; these must contain a remittance for Advice and Medi-
cine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, how-
ever distant. • GOSS and Co. M. Surgeons, 11,

Mr.'Wwurnneen, M.P. could net help cimgratt-
lating the Committee on the spirit and temperance
which characterised their Resolutions.* It was well
known how cautiously he had abstained at all public
Meetings from giving any opinion on the guilt or in-
nocence of the Queen, while the prosecution was
pending against her but the case was different now,
as the evidence for the prosecution was closed. On
a review of that evidence, his decided conviction
was, that she was innocent of all the crimes laid to
her charge. Ile had no doubt Ministers would slink
out of the measures by some indirect means. Be
this, however, as it might, he was sure they would
not meet the usual support.of their friends •in the
house of Commons. The offer of Lord Liverpool,
to give up the Divorce part of the Bill, was a most
cowardly and iniquitous act. This was no doubt
speaking boldly, but these were times which called
on every man to speak out. If her Majesty was not
fit to be the Queen of England, why was she to be
the King's wife? If she was so bad as to deserve to
be degraded, why should she not on the same grounds
be divorced? To degrade and not to divorce was to
insult the King and disgrace the Nation. He would
not now trespass further on their tine, as the day
was far gone, the Meeting having been called at a
late hour, and hi was afraid that they might-be
charged with carrying on their measures, as Ministers
enerally did, in the dark !—(Laughter).—He con-
cluded by moving the Resolutions.
The Rev. Mr. EDWARDS, in a humourous speech,
which excited much laughter, seconded the Reso-
lutions. He cordially agreed with their worthy Re.
presentative in all he had stated, but he must deny
the common assertion, that this case was without
precedent. Undoubtedly it might be so in. the his-
tory of this country, but there were plenty of piece-
dents to be found in a *history which, he believed,
was seldom looked into by any Cabinet Ministers—
(Laughte7)—he meant the Bible. One precedent was
in the case of Darius. That King had one faithful
Cabinet Minister, whose piety and integrity excited
the envy of his colleagues, by whom a Bill of Pains
and Penalties was enacted, to prevent hi.!. prayirg to
his GOD. The honest Minister suffered for a time,
but his cruel persecutors were in the end punished.
Ahab, King of Israel, was another instance. Ile co-
ve.ed his neighbour's vineyard, and becansehe could
not kill him openly, and thereby get his vineyard, he
got a Special Court, gave them sealed direction's,
procured false witnesses, and thus got the honest man
stoned. What became of Ahab and his wicked
Councillors was too well known to require any repe-
tition. The last precedent ha would quote would be
that of Haman, Prime Minister to the King Aha-
suerus; who was i wholesale dealer in persecutions,
for he aimed at exterminating trot only an individual,
but the whole race of the Jews, among whom• was
Esther the Queen. heaven aided her Majesty. The
Queen was firm, prudent, and innocent, and the' ma-
chinations of the Prime Minister ended in his ruin,
for, lo! Haman was hanged on the vety gallows he
had prepared for Mordectri !—(Lond ckeers).—Hede-
voutly hoped her Majesty Queen Caroline, guided
by Heaven, supported by truth and the loyal affec- •
tions of the people, would long, very long, enjoy the
greatest honours and felicity !—(Lend applaitses).
Mr. BLUNDELL read the Address, which, with the
Resolutions, was unanimously carried.
The Address was ordered to be presented to her
MAJESTY by as many inhabitants as thought proper
to attend ; and, after thanks to the Chairman, .and
several speecheiby a numlier of Gentlemen, the Meet-
ing adjourned, at eight o'clock.

We are authorized to state, that Sir Fnaucts Co-
