      The first part of this long and anxiously expected wort has at length appeared .

Tfr ? give his own reasons for undertaking the Tork . -Inundertaking to write the' Life and Character of Maximilian Robespierre , ' I lare been actuated by i variety of motives , of -which the principal , are as

      yiows" First , I iave been actuated by a desire to do justice to the dead , which , next to doing justice to tie firing , 1 deem the most sacred of dukes . -Secondly . By a desire to redeem the glorious ease of democracy from the obloquy and "bad odour it has ineurredj in consequence of the sanguinary excesses and guilty purposes falsely imputed hy fc Atory" to tie leading democrats of the French Rnoratbn . - Thirdly , By a desire to create a new pubHe resiuon , "which , " may protect my own reputation , and ftai of my brother-democrats , ( embarked with me is rhe same cause , ) against ihst horrible system of ahannr and proscription bv wliich . the aristocratic

This policy I deem particularly requisite , as a protection , aaingt tie rich middle-class who have the bulk a me yess in their hands , and who are oar feadnest foes--Founhlr , By a desire to aid fhe friends of political and social regeneration in this country—by

      developing the causes which ~ prevented the like ccnsammafion from being attained b y the revolution in France { as projected oy Robespierre and his adherents ); and to warn both the British , people and their leaders of the secret obstacles they will have to Hirmoanf , if they would escape the fate of all bygone reformers , m their efforts to achieve a peaceably salutary , and durable reformation . -rifihly and lastly , By a desire to shake the credit ( f u history " and lie authority of great names — -instruments hitherto "used with such . &tal effect by

      ds ar istocracy in support of their liberdddal systems , but which , will be _ turnfidagainst . th . em , the moment the mnHons begm to think for themselves la this motive I may include the ad&tioiial one , of wishing to prepare the public " minififi tiiereception rfsome important works , I am at present engaged ( 8 , ( in fartherance of the objects described in the skree preceding paragraphs . ) and which , I should hxe completed long ago , had it not been for the Mconiary disabiKnes to which my politics ha ^ e hiierto condemned me—disabilities which , I grieve to say , are Kkely to shackle me for some time to

      " Such are the motives which induced me to * rae * The life aad Character of Robespierre . " Wah respect to tie first , —my desire to do justice to jbedead , —if ever thememory of rarm needed justice , it is the memorr of Robespierre ; for aone has ever fflSered » much injostice at the hands of history . It mj , with safety , be affirmed , that : there never sm a public character whose reputation has been n firally ca ] pTnniated : -rso : xemorselesslr immolated a public and private vengeance , . or whose motives foa conduct nave beeii misrepresented with more inveterate rancour , and sfcwT" *^*^ disregard of truth .

      upper and middle classes . Not one honest Radical history has yet appeared , if we except the Histcire Parlementaxre de la Revolution Frangatie , which is ratheria compilation of materials for history than , a "history itself , and which is not yet . completed , the la ' st volume ( 38 ) not coming down farther than the Year 1794 . But of this anon . Suffice it to state here , that all the histories hitherto published are , in a greater or lesser degree , unfavourable to Robespierre , because' all of them are the productions of men interestedly hostile to the principles for which he lived and died . Whether , and to what extent I have succeeded in doing him the justice which interested clamour has hitherto denied him , it is for you , my Radical friends j to decide . If I have succeeded , I am sure tou will participate in the pleasure it will afford me .

The several divisions of the craniinn are exhibited on two large sized busts , having the several organic developments denned and named with , figures of reference . Below is a dense mass of letter-press , in which accordant with the several figures , the order , genus , nses _ and abuses of the feelings and faculties thereby indicated , are briefly , but clearly and simply , explained . No phrenologist ought to be without this chart , which is calculated to be alike useful to the learner as an elementary treatise , and to the adept as % reference map ; while its neatness renders it , when nicely mounted , no mean ornament to the library .

      Lote of Books . —I do not mean to speak disrespectfully of rhe stage ; but I think higher still of nature , and next to that , of books . They are the nearest to our thoughts ; they wind into the heart ; the noet's verse slides into the current of our blood . "We read them young , we remember them when old . UTe read thereof what has happened to others ; we feel that it has happened to ourselves . They are to be had everywhere good and cheap . "We breathe but the air of books : we owe everything to their authors on this sidebarbarism ; and we pay them easily with contempt , while living , and with an epitaph when dead . Michael Angelo is beyond the Al p * ; Mrs .

      Siddons has left tke stage , and us to mourn ter loss . "Were it not so , there are neither picture-galleries nor theatre-royal oh Salisbury plain , where I write this ; but her e , even here , with a few old authors , I can manage to get through the summer or winter months without ever knowing what it is to feel ennui . They sit with me at breakfast ; they walk out with me before dinner . After a long walk through unfrequented tracts , after starting the bare from the fern , or hearing the wing of die raven rustling above my bead , or being greeted by the woodman's stem " good * night , " »* be strikes info Ms narrow homeward path , I can " take mine ease at mine hm iJ beside ffie blazing Tieartb , and shake bands with Signor Orlando Friseobaldo , as the oldest acquaintance I have- ' Ben Jonson , learned Chapman , Master Hevwood , and Master "Webster are

      there ; and , seated round , discourse the silent hour away . Shakspeare is there himself , but not in Cibbet ' s managers coat . Spenser is hardly yet returned from a ramble through the woods , or is concealed by a group of nymphs , fawns , and satyrs Milton lies on the table , as on an altar , never taken up or laid down without reverence . Lyly ' s Endymion sleeps with the moon tbat shines in at the window . \ Facst disputes in one corner of the room with fiendish faces , and reasons of divine astrology . I should have no objection to pass my life in this manner out of the worfd , not thinking of it , not it of me ; neither abused by my enemies , nor defended by iay friends ; careless , of the future , but some ? fimes dreaming of the past , which might as well be forgotten . —Sozlitt . Heai / th Coknectep with Dbess . —The

      eonsideratioHS which shew the necessity for personal cleanliness , -prove the importance of cleanliness in dress . Por as portions of the dress are in constant contact with the ' skin , they take up the perspiration and retain many of its impurities , which , as I have before stated , are liable to be absorbed into the system . The linen onght , therefore , to be frequently changed , particularly in early life , when cutaneous diseases are common . All the parts of the dress ought to be loose , and of a porous texture , both togive free play to the vascular circulation , and to permit the free exit of the

      perspiration , and to absorb it readily . How far at variance with these rales is the dress in this country , of females in particular , it is needless for me to say . One vfould think that it had been adopted-for the express purpose- of-hindering the development of the body , ' and of retarding its functions . Another important quality , of clothing is warmth ; in treating which the subject of temperature generally will be , discussed . It is a prevalent error to suppose that the constitution of children are fortified by early exposure to cold ;; whence arises the inexpressibly absurd practice of bathing infants in cold water , even in the midst of winter . The circulation of

      infants is almost wholly , cutaneous ; and any severe impression of cold upon their hig hly sensitive and vascular skin destroys the natural distribution of the blood , producing bowel complaints , inflammations , and convulsions . —Curtis an Sealth .

      The Abt or Coxtebsatiox . —The art of quiet , easy , entertaining conversation is , 1 think , chiefly known in England . In Scotland we are pedantic , and wrangle , or we run away with the harrows on some topic we ek-ance to be discursive upon . In Ireland they have too much Tivacity , and are too desirous to make a show , to preserve the golden mean . They are the Gascons of Briton . George Ellis was the first converger I ever knew : his patience * and good breeding made me often agharried of myself going off at score upon some favourite topic - Richard Sharp is so celebrated for

      this peculiar -gift as to be generally called Conversation Sharp . The -worst of his talent is , that it seems to lack sincerity . You neTerlmow what are the real sentiments of a good converse ^' or at least it is very difficult to discover in what extent he entertains them . "His politeness is inconsistent with energy . Bor' forming a good conrerser , good taste and extensive information and accomplishment are the ^> rincipal-requi < itesj to which must be added , an easy and elegant delivery , and a weH-toned -voice . I think ike higher order of genius is not . favourable to ihis-talent .-HS ; r Waiter Scott ' s Diurv . >

      OiiD Friends . —The sudden appearance-of one web , though-destitute of any other recommendation , has been our companion iu the sweet summer-tide of our brightest days , who has trodden the ground that is dear-to-us , aad looked upon the countenance of those we love , can no longer . be an object-of indifference ,: when the blessed reality has passed away , and com and receding recollection becomes its scanty substitute . Together we can refresh the fading

      colours of the past , and by reviving . the outline , recalj in some . measure , " to our- tnitids _ the original beiuty of the pictnre ; even though its primitive graceanoTbrilliancy'be lost for ever . " Even , the sound of the vpice , under-such circumstances , often becomes interesting from the associations connected with it ; from the recollection of some other , some well-loved voice , which we have heard mingling its tones -with the one that' -now sounds' in our ear . — -From the State Prisoti ^ by Mary Louisa .

      A I 3 foNKET Ain > a TtQBRFioflT . ^ A to e doiifceyywlected for the purpose , had been made exceediigly dtnnk , andvwhen perfectly pot-valiant , was turned into the inciosure ,. the tiger at the same time bein ^ -fbfrced' 5 at of liis cage . Upon seeing the donkey , the tiger , irritated by the means used to dislodge bira , prepared for the deadly spring ; and Neddyj ^ fho , upon : any other occasion , would have run for 1 J ^ > Jt ? ndja « d by his previous potations perfectly onconscioaa of the power of his foe , instead of making a retreat , - toddled up to his antagonist in the most ridicttloas manner possible , wagging his head about , throwing out bis heels , and braying . The tiger , amazed , bewildered , and perfectly conflumerigated

      as an officer of the Ganges steamer expresses i £ gave one glance of astonishment at this strange assailant , and dropping his tail , turned and ran 8 mftl y away . The donkey , ready primed for every achievement , and perfectly reckless of danger , followed , still braying and nodding his bead from side to ade . We have beard of donkeys locking the dead lion , but I never expected to see one of the tribe actually kick a living tiger ; yet bo it was . On the next rencontre , Neddy , running round , and flinging put in the queerest style imaginable , gave the tiger one or two smart strokes with his hoofs , which villainous assault elicited nothing but an alarmed surprise en the part of the royal beast . Retreating

      again , it was again followed by the pertinacious donkey , and hemmed up in acorner ; the tiger , desperate , but perfectly unaware of the despicable nature of his foe , rushed forward and tumbled the braying pursuer on the ground . He did not , however , according to his usual wont , pause to worry him , but went straight off . The donkey , getting up again , shaking himself , and apparently enjoying the fun , was easily induced to go after the tiger , and the same scene was re-enacted ; the tiger , when hard pressed , contenting him 3 elf with knocking the dpnkey over , if no other means of getting rid of the

      annoyance presented itself , but still abstaining from the cruel sport of tearing and mangling the fallen antagonist . At length , the donkey had enough of it ; stunned and stupified by his falls , he / was unable to contiuue the uncouth capers which it was quite impossible not to be diverted by in fact , no words can convey an idea of the excessive absurdity of the scene : the stupid , blundering , awkward , yet conceited gestures of the long-eared assailant , and the scared , bewildered aspect of the assailed , were altogether so irresistibly comical , that there were times in which I was nearly suffocated by laughter . —r Asia tic Journal .

      Mk .: Justice Park and the Dogs . —Some years ago , while a Yorkshire butcher was undergoing an examination as witness in a case in the Court of Common Pleas , an undefinable sound was heard in the immediate vicinity of the witness-box . " Silence in the court there ! " cried Mr . Justice Park , in his usual sharp and irritable manner . —; " Just repeat that answer to my question , " said he , addressing himself to the witness . " The noise which that person made prevented my hearing it distinctly . "—* ' I said , my lord , I was not ¦ " —Here the same undefinable sound was aga : a heard . —" .-If that person again interrupts the court , I will order him to be taken into custody at once . The court must be

      respected ; there must be no more of these unmannerly noises . Officer , you preserve , at your peril , order in the court . "— " Yes my lord , " said the officer , bustling forward , and looking eagerly about him , as if determined to detect the pirty the next time the noise was repeated . A ; dead silence prevailed for some seconds after this sharp rebuke was administered to the disorderly party . " The last question I put to you , witness , was , whether you saw the defendant the night before the transaction was said to have taken place . "— "I am not able , my lord , to say positively . "—Here the witness was again interrupted by a loud growl from a large mastiff belonging to himself , which flashed

      c-onviction on the minis of all present that the author of the two former outrages on the dignity of the court belonged to the canine , not " the human species . —" Whose dog is that ? " said Mr . Justice Park , his eyes flashing indignation as he spoke . —* He is mine , my lord , " said the witness . — " Then , sir , you ought to have more respect for the court than to bring him here with you . "— He followed me against my will , my lord . "— " Then you must either put him out , or see that he be qniet . "—" I'll take care , my lord , that he makes no more noise . "— "Tiger , " ycu be quiet , sir—you lie down , sir . "—The examination was resumed . When Mr . Justice Park came to the sixth or seventh

      question , Tiger set up another tremendous under-gfpwl , which threw the irhole court into conrukiens of laughter , and which worked up the irritable faculties of has lordship to the highest possible pitch . Here it may be proper to observe , that the cause of the different growls which Tiger emitted was a small terrier belonging to some one"Jn " the court , with which Tiger se " emed , for seme reason or other best Ynown to himself , to be on very bad terms . — "Officer , " vociferated Mr . Justice Park , " officer , do your duty and take that dog out of court . "— "Whether it was that the officer mistook the four-footed author of the disturbance , or that the . surly aspect of Tiger frightened him from touching him , I cannot say ; but the fact was , that he wi « . proceeding to take the little harmless terrier out of court , and had no intention of disturbing Tiger , when Mr . Justice Park

      observed , " Not that dog , officer ,, but the other . That dog b ' as behaved himself Very properly indeed ; nothing could be more gentle-manly than his conduct . Leave -him alone . "—The officer , seeing there was no alternative , was proceeding to the place where Tiger was , in order to expel him , when , in the confusion of the moment , he trod otf one of the legs of the little terrier . The latter instantly set up a growl that lasted nearly half a minute , and was so loud and harsh 5 b its tones , that it made the ears of all present tingle . " Tai . ehot / i the dogs away , " shouted Mr . Justice Park , as soon as the yelping of the little terrier , / which had before conducted himself with so much propriety and in go " gentlemanly" a manner , would admit of his being heard . The court was cleared of the dogs , and , Mr . Justice Park ' s irritation having in some measure subsided , the trial was proceeded with . —The Bench and the Bar .

      Longevity . —There is now linngm Hampshirehog-yard , Broad-street , Bloomsbury , a man named Thomas Coleman , aged 102 years and five months , having been born at Devises , iu June , 1735 , being three years prior to the birth of George III . He is in full possession of all his faculties , more particularly _ a most retentive memory . The venerable man in has earlier years was a soldier , and served in America at the time the colonies revolted . The veteran has no other dependence than what he obtains by rending a few articles in the streets .

      A Singular Fact . —The other day , a party of gentlemen called at JStainbro' Inn , previous to their going to look over Wen tworth Castle . It was remarked by one of them at the time they were viewing the pictures in the gallery , that he thought it was the first time that ever a group of birds was known to have a taste for the fine art ? . What do you mean , said an old gentleman trho had just put his spectacles on to look at a scent jar , ' "Why , Sir , there are four of oar party , and our separate names are , Hawi , Sparrow , Rook , and Swallow . "

      Droll Story of a Fox . —Some years ago , a young fox was kept at the Talbot Inn , Shrewsbury , and employed in a wheel to turn the jack ; but after a while reynardgave his keepers the slip , and regained his native nelde . This very fox was afterwards pursued by the hounds , but running into the town , he sprung . over a half door which opened into a kitchen , jumped into his wheel , resumed his former occupation , and saved . his life . This , though very amazing , is absolutely true . —Hereford Times . , Philosophic Temper . —What most of all contributes to give us that calmness of temper which

      is so necessarydn disputes , is the confidence that inowledge inspires . For a mind tuat . comes well provided to engage in the defence . of troth , yfi& calmly and without concern stand the shock of false opinions / having premeditated all that can be alleged against truth , by 'instructing himself in the truth itself . What then can disturb a man sp well instructed ? What can seem to him inextricable , what unanswerable ? All the _ difficnlties that can be objected against him , will , if he be truly strong , serve on the contrary only to supply him with ideas thatiare dready oifcen triumphed over whatever is felse . ¦ ' ' : - ' . -. .

      NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL MARKETS , ( Monday . ) We have received since oiir last report a fair average week's supply of meat from all quarteiS j aeariy the whole of which has Been of superior qnality . Olpackages yf meat there have arrived about 60 , mostly from Essex , Scotland j and Yorkshire . Very few Pigs have coine from Ireland , by aeiij the number , being only -about 290 . The supply of London slaughtered meat has been tolerably good , whilst thft demand has be * ri , on the whole , dull , at but little variation in the prices . No livestock has yet amyea . from either Scotland or any part of England , lor the purpose of being killed and disposed or without appearing in Smitniield .. With respect to the prices -which are being realised for the Scotch meat , we . are of opinion , that they are by no means remimerative . These markets this iriornirig were moderately supplied , whilst the trade Was rather dull . ¦ ¦ . ¦¦ ¦¦¦ ' : ¦'¦¦ ¦ ¦ ' .- " : . . ' : -: ¦ " ' ¦ " " ' : ' . ' . ' ¦
