curate knowledge of the Hebrew language "enabled him , on the latter subject , ( qu . the concealed Atheism of the Unitarians" ?) to bring forth the latent strength of Hebrew expressions , to the confusion of his opponents , and to the satisfaction of his fellow-christians . " — -This passage
would justify a little pleasantry ; but another in the same article , which we proceed to quote , represses every feeling but that of sympathy : " What we surmised at the outset of this critique we are now assured of by our Irish correspondents . Dr . Hales is literally no more .
He yet , indeed , lives , but in the same state as our late revered monarch , and from the same cause , the loss of a beloved child . He has come to his end , like a fruitful tree in autumn , the branches bending down with their produce . "

In our Catalogue Raisonnee of modern Periodical Publications , we did not introduce scientific works of which we considered ourselves incompetent judges ; otherwise we should have pointed out Mr . Brande ' s Quarterly Journal of Science , which is one of the most respectable
philosophical journals that ever appeared ; and Dr . Thomson's Annals of Philosophy , which sustains the same rank as a Monthly , that the other holds as a Quarterly , Magazine . This latter work is now resigned to the Editorship of Mr . Richard Phillips , whose attainments in chemistry are well known to be of the

Order of the Lancashire Magistrates against The Monthl y Repository .
The Lancashire Magistrates have done some memorable things ; but though we knew historically a little of their corporate character , we were still unprepared for a recent decree of theirs against the Press , through our monthly publication . We here insert a statement of the case ,
as it has been transmitted to us by our respectable correspondent , Mr . Henry Taylor ' , of Bold Street , Liverpool . " On the first of the present month , ( January , ) Mr . Henry Denison , of Liverpool , sent twelve Numbers of the Monthly Repository to Lancaster , to be given to

The New Monthly Magazine which we characterized ( X V . 601 ) as " improving , " has cast its slough , and appeared with ? freshness and some degree of brilliance in the first number of a new series , under the advertised conduct or Mr . Thomas Campbell , the poet . Sir Richard Phillips , the proprietor of the original Monthly inveighs bitterly against the unfairness of
taking advantage of his title to get a work of opposite principles into circulation . He also attacks Mr . Campbell , not quite correctly , as a pensioner ; his small pension having been given him , we believe , by the Fox ministry , ( Mob . Repos . 1 . 221 , ) as the pure reward of merit . Another ground of complaint is the liberal remuneration offered bv the Neuy
Monthly to contributors , said to be not less than ten guineas a sheet . Mr . Campbell ' s salary as editor is asserted by his censor to be , £ 300 per annum , independent of his own communications . To account for the expense incurred in
advertisements of the rival journal , Sir Richard supposes some access to the Treasury . But this hypothesis comes too late ; the politics of the " New Monthly" having descended from flaming Toryism to temperate Whiggism . This last is a curious fact . It would seem as if literature and slavish
notions of government could not long keep company : even the Quarterly Review has lowered its high ministerial tone , and begins to be written less for a party than for mankind . What success will attend the New Monthly is doubtful . Its proprietors calculate on the value of Mr .
Campbell ' s name ; but a mass of matter issued at the price of 3 s . 6 d . once amonth , and forming three volumes in a year , seems to us so little to the public taste , that had we any interest in the project , we should not enjoy very largely " the Pleasures of Hope . "
