From tlie banks of the Danube to the shores of the Propontis, the traveller will find abundant catfee to rea son in this manner.

The few towns that he will meet with in his long Sc dreary jodrney are rapidly falling into ruin, and, tire only road (tlifc great means of civilisation) now ex isting, nnd which can put in any claim to such appellation, is either of the Roman age, or of that of the great Shftan Soly- man ; but even this pavement is now al most worse than nothing.’ Wherever the Osmanli has trod, devastation and ruin sily entered, and the reward of talents mnrk his steps, civilization and the Rita and industry, so much quicker and more certnin.] Lord Eldon and Lord S to well are tho 6otis of a barge muster and small denier in conls at Newcastle. Lord Stowell bor rowed 40/. to go to the Circuit,.and both supported themselves for n time by their t^luuts ns private tutors. Lord Tenter- den is the son of a hair dresser, nnd ob tained an eleemosynary education, on the foundation of a charity belonging to the town. Tlie Lord Chancellor is the son of Mr. Copley, the painter. The Chief Justice of the Court of Com mon Picas is the son' of an Attorney.-— Mr. John Williams, oue of the Benchers of his Inn, is the son of a horse dealer in Yorkshire. Mr. F. Pollock, another Bencher, is the son of a saddler of the name of Charing-c'ross. Mr Bickersteth, also a Bencher, was not long siuce hoaue surgeon and accoucheur in the family of Lord Clifford. The mother of Mr. Gur ney, the Bencher, kept a small book-shop for the sale of pamphlets in one of the Courts in the city. Mr. Campbell, the King’s Counsel, and son-in-law to .Sir James Scarlett, was a Reporter to a Daily Paper, at a time when such labor was much worse paid than at present. Mr. Sergeant Spnnkie was one of his col leagues. Mr. Stephens, the Muster in CbaDcery, was also a Reporter. Five, of the Judges sent out to our colonies were Reporters, and about twelve or fifteen of the present Barristers were Reporters for the Daily Papers, General, Mr. Su bar, aqd was clerl erative conveyancer to the late Marquess of Londonderiy. it is remarkable that the admission of Mr. Sugdcn was opposed on the ground ihai he had been a clerk; aud, but for the exertions of that most amiable man, and ornament to his pro fession, Mr. Hargrave, who contended for hia admission on the ground that, whatever he had been, he was a man of talent, and had written a book which dis played qualifications of a superior- order, he would now hnve keen any thing hut Sir Edwnhl Burtenshaw Sugden, Solicitor General to his Mqjesty. Those arc only a few. of the living examples. The great er number, perhaps of the departed mem bers of the profession, who became dis tinguished in theirtimes, rose much in the saint; manner. Chief Justice Saunders, whose reports, to this dny, form the best text book to pleaders, was a beggar boy, first taken notice of by an attorney, who took him into his office. Lord Kenyon was an attorney’s clerk. Lord Hard- wicke wns a peasant, and afterwards an attorney’s writer and office boy. Lord Thurlow, himself an illustration of his own rule, used to say, that the surest cause of success to a Barrister wns “ parts and poverty.” When Erskine and Curroli once dined with his present Majesty, then Prince of Wales, the Prince gnvo as a toast, “ The Bar.” Erskinc said, he ow ed every thing to the Bar; and Curran added, “ Then whnt may I sny; since it tins raised me from the Condition of a peasant to the table of my Prince ?” * THE SUBSCRIBER O FFERS cuttings ofthe CHF.RO-: KEE ROSE, to any person wish- idge.

The great city of Con stantinople, and the well-peopled villages of the Bosphorus, indeed present a con trast with the melancholy scene I have just described: but they owe their apparent prosperity to the desolation of the provin ces, the miserable inhabitants of .which, fleeing from the extortions nnd oppressions of the local authorities, herd together in and about tlie capital, whore (as is the case in all countries) they less feel the hand of power nnd the persecution of petty tyrant*. This plethora of the heart I look upon asi one of the strongest symptoms of the fa tal disease which affets the whole system. But even Stem bool, rich and beauteous as she is, verges towards tier decay. By the alienation of the Greek nation, she has lost the brightest jewel in her imperial dia dem ; by it she has been bereft of the great bulk of her maritime,' commercial, and literary population. She is now mak ing an heroic struggle against accumulat- it looks more like the con ing evils; but it ■ .... vulsive efforts of the dying Colossus, than the well-regulated exertion of a healthy body. We have no instance in history of tb$ regeneration of such a people as this, who, witnessing the advancing civiliza tion, and the increasing power, moral and physical, of all tlie nations around it, re mains nearly in the same condition that it nnd to overcome the nations of the West. The personal character and magnanimous efforts of the Sultan may do much—but he stands alone ; he has no followers in the race towards refortii: should ho fall, it is to bo feared that the Ottomans will re lapse into their old system, for they are constitutionally opposed to novelty, regard nil innovation ns a dereliction from the precepts of their law. But even Constan- tinoplo, although apparently well peopled, has in reality, within the last twenty-years rapidly decreased in this grept essentiul to a nation’s wealth. 93 9G We are authorized to announce EDWARD GRESHAM, E»q. ai a can didate for Receiver of Tax Return* for the county iif Jones, at the ensuing election.

The date of the observation is the years 1627 and 1828: Their humanity to animals is strangely opposed to their cruelty to man; and they would think less of beheading offibastinad- ing a whole province, then they would of ill-treating a horse or camel. In there ex terior, they are remarkable for a decency and apparent propriety of conduct; but yet we know that iu secret they indulge in ull sorts of abominable vices. They are apparently frank and cordial in their man ners, but they arc often known to disguise the most atrocious designs beneath the cloak of benevolencc. aud to be plotting tho rum and destruction of the unsuspect ing victim of their duplicity, while lulling him into a false security by a show of kindness pod affection.
