Mutability of Fortune —\ young lady a native of Martinique, and a creole, was on a voyage to France, with the design to be educated there, when the inercuant vessel on board of which she was passenger, was captured by an Ige ine emi tter, and taken to Algiers The fair captive was ut first overwhelmed with affliction at the pros pect of captivity before her; bui as passion gave wav to meditation, it came to her recollection that an old negro s had predicted that she would one dav become one of the greatest princesses in tho world! All, exclai med she, for superstition was in this instance but the handmaid of inclination, it is doubtless so, lamto he a princess. Well, 1 must iiotquxrrel with fi.rtune. VV’br knows what mat come out of this? So strong did this prepos session grow up in he young lady, that ere she reached the Barbary shore, she was as much a fatalist in point of resignation, as any devotee of Islamism could possibly bo. The French consul at \lgicrs immediately offered to ransom his countrywoman; bnt no, the lair creole would not be ransomed, for toar of offending fortune, bv re sorting to so vulgar a way of recovering her lib arty Bo to the seraglio of the dey of Al ierstlie lady went; and strange indeed to tell, from his highness seraglio she was tent as a present to the gr md seignior, who was so struck with her beauty and manners, (for in both she was excel ling) that he elevated hor to the dignity of his favorite sultana! Such was the singular tise of tho late sultana Vaulde, who died in 1818, fy w-.s the mother of tho present grand seignior. LYELL’S PRINCIPLES OF GEOLOGY. Prinpciples of Geologv; being an attempt to ex pla;n tho former changes of the Earth's sur face, by reference to Causes now in Operation. By Charles I .yell, Esq. F. R S 2 vols. Svo. Vol. I. London, 1830. J, Murray. From the distinguished situation which tho author of ihe work belote ns occupies, as Foreign Secretary to the G ologic I So ciety, no less than from th" i ’.tnsic impor tance of tho subject, his Principles have been looked for with mote than ordinary importance, and more than is customary tvi'h the scientific c ass of readers. The subject may indeed be said to be yet in its itif.ncy, when compared with many other depai intents of science : or, more correctly speaking, practiceil geology is yet in its in fancy, though it appeals to be advancing with rapid strides through the different sta ges of its miuoriiy; and al present may be regarded its one ol ihe most interesting and important branches of inquiry that can en gage tlie attention of man. We confess ourselves unable to do full justice to this work, without going more at length into tho subject than is compatible with our miscellaneous columns. We shall however, bring together a few of the points in which the author diff rs in opinion from farmer geologists, accompanied by gome rx tiacts, shewing to what eient hi: has sue reeded ;u remit ting iho subject attractive i i lie i enerai i < ader Mr. LyeJl is of opinion, that tho veiy Cumin ii received notion urmuig gooh g .ii that the org .nic re ..aim found in ||,„ s , Vl r l ol strita, from Hie lower red sunff-stone to tie tertiary series, hid a progressive de velopentent ut the order of creation, ii cr r-’ticous; aud thi* opinion he supports, by citing nr* instance t f the reran. na of fish he* t i,.g found in Perthshire m quarries of ihej old led sand-stone, which is lower m the scries than the coal or mountain limestone, i The veiteb « of a reptile has also been j found in the mount in limistono ot Nor thumberland. wiiich the author deems con clusive as to the fact of the li.gher ciuss id animals, as well as testaceu and vegetahh rcniai s, having existed at the very reuo ti ra when the oldest o! the sucoud.uy class of animals, as well as testaciM were deposit* .and. Some further rt seal ches, however, arc necessary to deleiniitie this point sutislucio- t i!y. The comparatively recent origin of the human race, Air. LytH also cuimiileis as affording no argument in favour of taut pio giessive order ol animal creation which is contended for by some geological witters; and which is supported In a mass el veiv strong inductive evidence, against the few insulated facts advanced in the present woih. Bui we must allow the author the benefit of Ins ewu evidence “Assuming, ihen, that man is comparatively speaking, ot modern origin, can Ins intioduciion he considered as one step in a progressive sys tem, by which, assume suppose the organic world advanced slowly fiom a more simple to a more perfect state? To tins question we in ly ri ply, tint ihe supciiority ot man depends uol on those laculties ami attri butes which he shares in common with tin inferior animals,hut on Ins reason, by winch he is distinguished from them. It the or ganization of man were such as w ould coo ler a decided pro-eminence on bun even it lie were depiived of ins reasonable powers, and provided only with such instincts as are possessed bo the lower animals, he might ihen he supposed to be a link in a progres sive chain, especially il it could he shewn that the successive develnpement ot the an nual creation lad always pioceedid hem the moie simple to tne more couipounn, from species most remote fiom the human ivpe to those most nearly approaching to ii. But this is au hypothesis which is wholly unsupported by geologic al evidence On me other hand wo may admit, that man is of higher dignity thair were my pre-ixisiiug animals on earth, and yei question whether Ins coming was a step ti the onginal ad vancement the organic ' world, for the most highly civiliz and people may sometimes degenerate in strength and statue, and he come inferior in their phisical attributes to the stock of tudo hunters from whom they descended ” Leaving ibis difficult problr m for the de teriuiualion of nui metaphysical readers, wi shall proceed to give an i x ric wuich will he far more generally int< resting, as thus tiamg in a reinai kablu degree, the influence •>f i nulling water hi • xc.ivnng iie< (i valleys and depo-iung the debris if ro.
