A .GLIO'S PORTRAIT OF THE QUEEN, IN HER
ROYAL ROBES, Engraved in richest Mezzotinto,
by SCOTT.

"Mr. Aglio has succeeded in effecting a very noble work
of art. 'l'he likeness of the Queen is unquestionably one of
the best we have seen ; and gains in dignity and queenlike
air from all the accessories of regal state. The flowing train,
which has presented so much difficulty irr^ other pictures, is
admirably managed. The mezzotint() engraving of Mr. JAs.
SCOTT is rich and warm. It gives life and force to the Por-
trait in the happiest ma nner."—lforning Post.
"This Portrait, a full-length, has higher pretensions than
almost any of the likenesses of Her
.Majesty that have yet
appeared, which it far surpasses in general arrangement and
effect of art."—Mnrnino [-Tern/.t
"it is a full-length, the face remarkable for its great like-
ness to the Royal Original: and, if only for the great resem-
blance to Her Majesty, is likely to l'ecome exceedingly
popular."—Torch.

LIVERPOOL MECHANICS' INSTITUTION.

LECTURES ON CHEMISTRY, AS APPLIED TO THE ARTS.

On Saturday evening, Dr. Kane delivered his fourth lec-
ture, upon the manufacture of glass and porcelain.
The substances used in the manufacture of glass and por-
celain, are metals united with oxygen; but their affinity for
it is so strong and powerful, that under all circumstances
they exist in nature in an oxydized form, and it is one of the
most difficult of chemical operations to separate them from
oxygen, so as to exhibit them in an uncombined form. The
substances which I allude to are the alkaline bases and the
base of silica, the metallic properties of which may be some-
what doubted, but which agree with those of the others;
therefore I have no hesitation in classing it as a metal. The
chemists of former days considered that there were only three
alkalies, and that they belonged to the three different king-
doms, namely, the vegetable, mineral, and the animal. The
vegetable alkali was potash, so called from its-being derived
in large quantities from the ashes of vegetables; soda was
called the mineral alkali, in consequence of its existing in
large quantities in salt; and ammonia, in consequence of its
being an animal product, was called the anima► alkali, or
the volatile alkali, because of its gas-like form when uncom-
bined. At present we shall have nothing to do with ammo-
nia, but with potash and soda. The names which were given
to these alkalies are not correct ; because potash, although
the most abundant source of it is the ashes of wood, yet it is
also found in felspar and a great variety of minerals con-
tained in the earth. In like manner, soda is found to exist
in all vegetables which• grow in the neighbourhood of the
sea, and even at considerable distances from the sea, pro-
vided they are exposed to winds which pass over the sea.
Whole classes of marine plants, growing upon the shores
where they are washed by the waters of the ocean, contain
a great quantity of common salt; and by the collection and
the burning of these plants, were obtained the different vari-
eties of kelp and barilla, which, in the less advanced state of
science, gave to the manufacturers their whole amount of
soda. One of the most remarkable' steps made in science
was by Sir Humplary Davy, when he discovered that the
alkalies were but peculiar combinations of various metals
with oxygen, metals possessing characteristics so totally dif-
ferent from those which we are accustomed to expect, that
at first sight it can be very well understood how they were
not sooner discovered. We find that they are the lightest
bodies in nature, and difficult to preserve; we shall likewise
find them to be amongst the most tender substances with
which we have to deal. In accordance with the rule which
I laid down at the commencement of these lectures, I shall
not dwell upon the means of preparing these substances,
because they are merely of use in a scientific point of view,
the manufacturer never preparing potassium for his opera-

powerful advocacy. Independently, however, of its
political character, this periodical presents very consi-
derable claims to the support of the British public. Its
literary merits promise to be of the highest order.
The introduction to the present number contains some
very eloquent remarks on the " History and Politics
of Poland. The next paper gives a detailed account
of the religious persecutions to which that country has
been subjected under the Muscovite sway. The " Ge-
neral Review of Literature and Education" in Poland
introduces to our notice some very beautiful specimens
of poetry. The statistical details respecting the ex-
tent of the territory of Poland, and its population, seem
to have been collected with great care. We cannot,
however, conclude this notice without remarking that
the Polish Magazine is ultra radical and republican
in its politics.

An Essay on Food. By W. Grisenthwaite, Author
of a refutation of Paine's Age of Reason"—" New
Theory of Agriculture"—" Essay on Genius," &c.
London : Crofts. 1838.
In the language of the title page, in this essay
" the received doctrine of modern physiologists re-
specting the waste of the body is exploded—the cause
of animal heat is explained upon new principles—the
source whence nitrogen is derived by herbivorous
animals is established—general rules for the preserva-
tion of health are laid down—and the wisdom of the
Divine Economy in all is vindicated." We have little
to add to this very explicit description of the contents
of this essay. The author, though not a professional
man, is evidently thoroughly acquainted with the sub-
ject on which he has undertaken to write. The me-
dical student will derive much valuable information in
• its perusal, and be led, perhaps, to bestow more atten-
tion than has hitherto been paid to the subject of che-
mical physiology. The chief recommendation of the
work in our view is to be found in its practical sug
gestions, which are extremely valuable. The con
eluding remarks are especially deserving of attention.

The strictly scientific character of this important
work renders it one of the most valuable ever pub-
lished on the same subject. The publication of such
works as the present in the shape of cheap monthly
parts is highly commendable, as it places them within
the reach of the great bulk of the middle classes. In
the number before us we have a copious description of
animakula infusoria—acaphalm—and sterelmintha.
The illustrative engravings are beautifully executed.
Altogether, this work deserves, and we have no doubt
will obtain, the most extended support. It will form
an admirable substitute for more elaborate works on
natural history.

Wilson's Tales of the Borders. Parts 50 and 51.
Edinburgh : Sutherland.
The more we see of this admirable series of "histo-
rical,traditionary, and imaginative tales of the Borders
and of Scotland," the more are we delighted with its
character, and the more cordially do we feel called
upon to recommend it to the notice of our readers.
Some of the tales in the two numbers now before us
possess very considerable merit, and all of them will
be read with pleasure as well as profit. The moral
lessons which they develope constitute their highest
recommendation. These numbers contain the follow-
ing tales :—" Henr- Hamilton"—" Lord Durie and
Christie's Mill"—"-The Amateur Lawyers," (a capital
tale,)—" Gleanings of the Covenant"—" The Victim
of Vanity"—" Palantines"—" The Mutiny at
Sea"—and " The Case of Evidence."

Conservatism," &c. London : Mitchell. 1838.
This admirable tract is from the pen of Mr. Sowler,
of Manchester, who has already rendered many signal
services to the conservative cause through the med►um
of similar brief essays on the various topics which have
recently engaged the attention of the public. We re-
commend this excellent review of the policy pursued
by the Whig ministers to the careful perusal of every
true lover of his country. We feel assured that no
one can candidly and honestly peruse its contents with-
out feeling a deep convict►on of the baseness and
treachery of the " contemptibles" now in office. This
tract ought to be extensively circulated among the
operatives in our large towns. It will serve to disa-
buse them of many of their erroneous opinions and
unfounded prejudices. We are glad to find the pen
of the author continues to be so well employed.

Woman! as Virgin, Wife, and Mother. An Epitome
of Social Duties and Domestic Enjoyments. By
a Lady. London : Mitchell. 1838.
This beautiful little work, most appropriately de-
dicated to the Queen, ought to be in the possession of
every adult female in the kingdom. It abounds with
sage and judicious advice, couched in language re.
markable both for simplicity and elegance. Governed
by the sound maxims which the fair authoress incul-
cates no female can fail, under ordinary circumstances,
of securing that greatest of earthly blessings—domes-
tic felicity.
