One day I passed very agreeably with the Marquis Arconati and his family, including the Count Arrivabene Count Giovanni Arrivabene, a writer on Political Economy. and two other Italian exiles. They live, except in winter, at the Castle of Gaesbeck, about eight miles from Brussels, a fine, large old pile of building, connected in history with the troubles of Holland, and full of recollections of that disastrous period. It is pleasantly situated on the edge of a valley, upon which it looks down, and there they live as happily as exiles can. They were all implicated in the revolutionary movements in Italy, of which Pellico, Confalonieri, etc., were a part, and for the last twelve years Arconati and Arrivabene have been under sentence of death. They are all people of most agreeable intellectual culture, and Arrivabene, Berchet, and Salviati are authors

ade it imperfect and manageable only under the most favorable circumstances, were these: How it was submerged. The Holland is always buoyant; it is submerged by deflecting a horizontal rudder when the boat is under way, not by filling it to a In case of an accident to the Holland's machinery the boat will float to the top. It was vice versa with the David. The Holland is run by gasoline when on the surface and electricity when beneath. The propeller wheel of the David was turned by eight men. The Holland lies steady in the water. It is perfect ballasted when water is taken into the tanks, because they hold just the required amount to bring the boat to fighting weight or diving trim and it cannot shift. The David was unstable in this respect. The Holland fires the torpedoes after a moment's rise to the surface, when within range, to sight the vessel to be destroyed and get a direct line upon her. The David dragged her torpedo after her under the keel of the vessel, and it

e side of it, on the northwest, is productive and had fine beef cattle, chickens, eggs, milk, butter and sheep. It is a good point to call for such stores, but while the water is bold and deep, there is a kelp, or sea weed, growing up from the bottom and so covering the surface, and so strong that it is hard to get through, and endangers the disabling of a steamer by winding up the propeller wheel. The island is under English protection— When we were there old Peter Green, a Dutchman from Holland, who was the oldest man on the island, had been there twenty-five years and seemed to be the leading man among them. The island is about 37 degrees south latitude and 10 degrees west longitude.

The principles which ought to regulate the procedure of a Christian minister in this respect, both in his private studies and his public ministrations, have rarely been stated with more distinctness and ability than by one of Dr. Rotheram's pupils, Mr. Lowthion, of Newcastle, in a sermon on the reasonableness of ministers speaking freely to their people, preached at the ordination of Mr. Caleb Rotheram, his tutor's son and successor, And the names of Seddon, Dixon, Holland, Walker, &c., which appear in the list of students educated at this institution, are sufficient to satisfy any one in the slightest degree acquainted with the history of Protestant dissent during the last century, that these principles were consistently and fearlessly acted on by the excellent person who conducted it; at the same time that fruits like these, of his labours as an instructor, afford abundant proofs of his competency to guide his pupils to the acquisition of sound and accurate
