A new edition. ;' John Buncle is the English Rabelais." The soul of Francis Rnbeiais passed into Thomas Amory, the author of tile Life and Adventures of John Bunecle; both were physicians. and enemies of toe much gravity. Their great business was to enjoy life. Rabelais indulges his spirit of sensuality in wine, in dried neat's tongrues, in Bologna sausages, in Botargos. John Buncle shows the sanie symptoms of inordinate satisfaetion in tea and bread and butter. Wfhile Rabeiais roared with Friar John and the Monks, John Bincle gossipped vwith the ladies, and with equal and uncontrolled gaiety. These two anu thors possessed all the insolenec of health, so that their works give a fillip to the constitution; but they carried off the exuberance of their natural spirits in different ways. The title of one of Rabebde chapters, and the contents answer to the title, is, " How they chirped over their cup." The title of a corresponding chapter in John Bunele would run thue:-" Tthe autlhor is invited to spend the eVenD ing with the divine liss Hawkirs, and goes accordingly ; with the delightful conveisation that ensued." London: Septimus Prowett, 23, Old Bond.s!reet. LAdvertisement..-A word in time!

[Advertisement.1-Ross and SoNs, 119, Bisho sgate-street,who have sold for the last 30 years pure and unadulterated BEASt'S GREASE, obtained from the animal properly treated and fatted (by which the coat, the criterion of the qualitv of the fat, is increased to nearly double its usual thickness, as well as being more agreeable for use), are induced to offer it to the public as the best specific hitlherto discovered for promoting the grovrth and thickness of the huusan hair. In order to distinguish the genuine from the clarmm- and unwholesome made-up trash which is frequently sold as bear's grease, it may be necessary to mention, that the fat of the bear, whe- ther wild or tame, is of the purest white, inclining to an oil, and in moderate or warm weather dissolves instantly on being touched br the hand.
