Achaia comprehends the territories of Patras, Vostizza, Calavrita, and Gastuni. Messenia comprises the territories of Navarino, Modon, Coron, Andrussa, Calamata, Leondari, Caritania, Janar, and Arcadia. Laconia is composed of the territories of Malvoisia, Mistra, Bordugna, Chielefa, Passava, and Zarnata. The following is the number of the inhabited towns:-Romania 255, Achaia 419, Messenia 564, Lavonia 260, total 1,498. The number of the villages which have been destroyed is in Romania 80, 100 in Achaia, 72 in Messenia, and in Lavonia 50; total, 302. Of monasteries there are 41 in Romania, 30 in Achaia, 23 in Messenia, and 33 in Lavonia; total, 135. In Romania there are 9,557 families, Achaia 11,445, Messenia 13,488, and Laconia 11,717, making a total of 46,207. The total of the population of Romania is 40,829 souls, Achaia | steeped for four days, and then distilled in a Respect for the Arts. Several instances of respect for the arts among the lower orders of Paris, during the late troubles, have been related: the feeling seems to have extended itself even to the ignorant boors of the Netherlands. An English baker at Brussels had his house attacked by the mob, because he was biscuitbaker to the king, and "therefore a royalist." A painting of the royal arms over his door, which was the performance of an artist of considerable talent, was torn down, and on the point of being destroyed, when one of the mob, observing that it was well executed, called out, "Respectez les arts;" and the painting was restored uninjured. New Metallic Mirror.-M. Dobeiriner, while making experiments upon platina and its combinations, discovered that when the chloruret of this metal is heated gently with alcohol, a brown substance is obtained, which is easily blackened at a higher temperature, and may be dissolved without difficulty in alcohol. This substance is excellent for rubbing glass in order to make mirrors of platina: to effect which, the glass is to be dipped into the alcoholic solution, care being taken that it is spread uniformly on its surface, and is afterwards made red hot with the flame of a lamp of spirits of wine. The coat of platina thus deposed on the glass in its metallic state, adheres so strongly to it that it will be impossible to detach it. If, however, a mirror so made be plunged in hydrochloric acid, spread with water, and if at the same time a layer of zinc is placed in it, the whole layer of platina will dissolve instantly. A burnishing stick may Tartar of Wine.-M. Berzelius has lately discovered in the tartar of wine an acid which differs sensibly from tartaric acid in the form of its crystallisation, while in other respects it resembles the latter in all its combinations. This instance of two acids having identical be used to polish the platina. chemical properties and a different crystallisation, is not unique in the science. Among others, the phosphoric and the stanic acids present the same peculiarity. The Monthly Libraries and similar publications, i. e. such as are produced periodically and contain much matter at a cheap rate, are becoming, even with all their Novel series commenced, about fifteen months ago, above numbers, more popular than ever.

The Ausland, a Munich journal, announces that Venice will soon cease to be an island, as the town is to be united to the continent by a wooden bridge, two miles and a half long. A company has contracted for its construction, on condition of receiving a toll for thirty years. Independent of the immense advantages the town will derive from this enterprise, it will be of great service to the government, who have hitherto been obliged to expend a considerable sum of money to keep up the communication between Mestre and Venice by means of vessels. Last winter alone it cost 24,000 florins. Tunnels. These constructions were also known in former times. Strabo reports that a tunnel had been made at Babylon, under the Euphrates, from the royal palace to the Temple of Belos, fifteen feet long and twelve feet high. The breadth of this river was, at the described spot, a stadium (655 feet). But Herodotus mentions that the Euphrates was turned in its course at the time the tunnel was made. Czar Peter.

In royal 4to. coloured, 8. half-bound. This Atlas has been compiled from the best authorities, and contains all the late discoveries of Parry, Weddell, Denham, and Clapperton. But its principal claim to attention is founded on the entire novelty of the plan: each map presents, not only the geographical outlines of countries, but a series of numbers affixed to the mountains, rivers, and cities, which indicate their compa rative rank, and enable the student, by reference to the table of classification, to discover their actual magnitude.

If no use be made of the labours of past ages, the vorid must remain always in the infancy of knowledge: and the learned Dr. Parr says, "if you desire your son, though no grea scholar, to read and reflect, it is your duty to place in his hands the best translations of the best classical authors." To those, therefore, who are desirous of obtaining a knowledge of the most esteemed authors of Greece and Rome, but possess not the means or leisure for pursuing a regular course of study, the present undertaking must prove a valuable acquisition.
