terdiction Of that trade has already been severely

THE LYCEUM.
We take pleasure in stating that the handsome
little edifce lately erected in Wolfe street. be-
tween Catherine and Cumberland streets, to which
this appropriate name has been given, was opened
to the public, for the first time, on Thursday
evening last, with an introductory Address, and
other exercises proper for the occasion.
We understand from the Address, that the
building will be used chiefly as place for The
delivery of popular lectures on various subjects
OF Moral Philosophy, and Civic and Political f.
economy, and miscellaneous matters, calculated to
form the common mind, and more especially to
improve the young. II is designed. in short, TO
aid the pulpit and the press in enlig hit nit pub
lie opinion. and disseminating useful knowledge !;
and will, no doubt, prove q valuable auxiliary to
both We shall give more particular statement
OF the plan and principles of the institution here
alter In the mean time it is easy to see, we think
that il promises very fairly TO promote the itera-
rary and moral interests OF our community, and
may justly claim tie favor and support OF all our
citizens. And, indeed. the warm and decided sp-
probation OF IL which we have heard expressed by
many of the auditors, and those most able to APP
preciate it's value leaves us room to doubt that
1t will receive all the countenance and considera
tion which II deserves
We must take this occasion TO say, that the
building itself IL small but beautiful specimen OF
Grecian architecture. The front, which we learn
was designed by Mr. Hariidnd Of Pbade-
pha, was taken from the choragic monument OF
Thrassybuus at Athens, aud is, Of course, in the
mos, chase and classical style, and the hall is Ugh,
and elegant and furnished off in the most pure and
simple taste.
We should not feel satisfied ourselves, nor
we believe, would many OF our readers, were
we, from notions Of false decacy, to omit in this
notice the name of WM MAXWELL, EGG. to
whose benevolence s. public spirit alone the com
munity owes this admirable institution the foun-
dalton, we may reasonably hope, Of incalculabe
moral & intellectual improv elnent.
The corner one fths Lycrum was laid on the
Fourth Of July last, with religious solemnties-

Lisbon for 1000 barrels was received by the Com

Portugal, where the rebels, as they are called by
King Ferdinand. have been dispersed, and all
seems TO be quiet for the present, though with no
good Will towards each other. The French troops
winch we're at Madrid have left that capital, but
iuii 70OO soldiers of that nation remain in full Mil
