Some of his late numbers, on the novel positions and pretensions of the belligerent powers, are distinguished above all his former writings, for their masculine eloquence, power of reasoning, and courageous delineation of TRUTH.

WILKINSON, of Bath, has published in the Bath Paper, a very ingenious analysis of the contents of the stomach of two horses who lately died suddenly, by which it appears that they had been poisoned. MRS. BOURNE, in the Grove, Bath, was, on new year's day, burnt to death by her clothes catching fire.-In another place we have remarked on the number of deaths from this cause, during the past month, in different parts of the kingdomat least forty children and ten adults! When all the complicated horrors of death from being roasted alive amidst friends and comforts are considered, it seems wonderful that a simple and certain method of prevention, which we discovered and announced seven years ago, and have since reiterated in various shapes in this Magazine, should not be known in every family. The parties on fire have only to lie down, and the instant they do so, all the danger is removed; and they or their friends may, at their leisure, extinguish the fire. In our experiment we took two equal stripes of muslin, held one by a pair of tongs perpendicularly, and laid the other horizontally and hollow, and then set them on fire. The perpendicular stripe wholly exploded, with an intense flame a yard high, in half a minute; but the horizontal one was, with difficulty, kept alight, and as its flame was never above half an inch high, it might have been extinguished with the thumb and finger; it was also nearly five minutes before the fire extended to the other end. The fatal effects are, however, produced not less by the intensity of the flame than by its ascent to the throat, head, and sensual organs, organs, an effect which is also prevented by instantly lying down. Surely it is the duty of medical men, and of clergymen in funeral sermons, and in other ways, to propagate the knowledge of so infallible a remedy for so dreadful an evil. The Bath Society for relieving persons imprisoned for small debts, have enlarged twenty-one persons during the last year, for the small sun of 941. 19s. 6d. Noah Chivers, esq. has presented them with a donation of 211. The Taunton Courier speaks of the late fogs as enveloping the whole vale of Taunton, but as not extending beyond Blagdon Hill, where the weather was mild and clear. At the Somerset Quarter Sessions, at Wells, the chairman remarked at some length, on a supposed error of grand juries in road cases; who frequently refuse to receive the prosecutor's evidence, and to find the bill, unless notice has been previously given to the parish presented. A practice in which we confess we agree with grand juries. Married.] At Bath, Mr. Gnerieux, of the French navy and Legion of Honour, to Miss Sarah Marshall. Mr. W. Majsh, of Bath, to Miss F.

At - At We learn from the Exeter Flying Post, that this usually mild and 'genial county has been as deeply covered by the late heavy snows as any in the kingdom. The road from Plymouth to Exeter and London, was wholly impassable at Halldown for several days. Warm baths, at an expence of 3201. are to be annexed to the Exeter Lunatic Asylum, in conformity, we presume, to the plans of treatment described in late numbers of this Magazine. Mr. WOOLMER has changed the day of the publication of his Exeter and Plymouth Gazette, from Saturday to Thursday. The Devan and Exeter Institution consists already of 130 proprietors, and its funds amount to 2,5601. Donations of 113 valuable books have been presented by Messrs.

The transport, Queen, No. 332, having brought home, 345 sick and invalided soldiers, 55 women, and 58 children, from the British army on the continent, besides six French officers, prisoners of war, and a crew of 21 men, making a total of 473 persons, was lying in Carrick Road, Falmouth, on the 14th January. At the commencement of the gale of that night, she was observed to ride hard, and, at about five o'clock in the morning, she parted her cabies and drove ashore on Trefusis Point, where, in a short time, she was beat to pieces. One hundred men and four women, with great difficulty, succeeded in getting ashore; but, all the rest perished with the ship. Thus 569 souls were, in a few moments, buried in the sea, under the most awful circumstances! The bodies of five men, ten women, and nine children, have been washed on shore at Penryn, and a great number at Flushing. The soldiers were all artillerymen, except about thirty-two, who belong ed to the 30th regiment. A shocking homicide was lately committed at Camborne, by a poor lunatic, on an attendant female; and, at Sancreet, by a villain of the name of Burns, on John Allen, a sailor. Married.] Mr. W.

At Torgan, aged 61, by a fall from his horse, the celebrated statesman, the Count de Narbonne, god-son of Louis XV. whom he much resembled. During the reign of Louis XVI. he rose to the rank of Lieute nant-general in the royal army, and chiefly resided at the Court of Mesdames (the daughters of Louis XV.) by whom he was held in high consideration. After the breaking out of the Revolution, he accept 95 ed, in 1791, the post of Minister at War, with a view to save the king. This object was clearly evinced, by a proposal which he made verbally, in the most serious manner, to the National Assembly, and at the same tiine in writing to the Duke of Brunswick. On the 9th Jan. 179%, he resigned his office, and retired into private life. Napoleon drew him from obscurity as a branch of the ancient noblesse, to give splendor to his court, and Narbonne very unwillingly consented. He could not stoop to flatter. The most favourable expression that ever escaped his lips respecting Napoleon was. Il est si hereux!-how lucky he is! He often said of him, Su téte est un volcan-his head is a volcano; and still more frequently, C'est un crane, qui n'a point d'entrailles-he is all head and no heart. With the emperor he was however a great favourite. He is said to have gone with great reluctance to Russia, to Vienna, and lastly to Torgan, where he died. Drowned in the Elster, after the battle of Leipsic, Prince Poniatowski, nephew to the last King of Poland, and the hope of Polish patriotism. On the 19th of October, when the French army was falling back, the emperor assigned part of the suburbs of Leipsic, next to the Borna road, to Prince Poniatowski. This post he was to defend with a body of 2000 Polish infantry. Perceiving that the French coluns on his left flank were retreating, and that there was no possibility of getting across the bridge, which had been blown up by accident, he drew his sabre, and turning to the officers round him-" Gentlemen," said he, " 'tis better to fall with honour," and at the head of a few Polish cuirassiers, and the officers attending him, he fell furiously upon the advancing columns. He had also been wounded on the 14th and 16th; and on this occasion he received a musket ball in his left arm. With the words above mentioned, he sprung forward, but found the suburbs already filled with allied troops. He cut his way through them, but was again wounded through his cross, and throwing himself into the Pleisse, with the assistance of the surrounding offi cers, reached the opposite shore in safety. The horse which he rode was left behind in this river, and the Prince, exhausted, mounted another which was brought him. He then proceeded to the Elster, and seeing the Prussian and Saxon riflemen advancing upon him on all sides, he plunged into the river and sunk, with his horse Several officers who precipitated themselves in the water after the prince, were likewise drowned, while others were taken prisoners on the bank, or in the river, to be sent by the magnanimous Alexander to Siberia! His funeral obsequies were performed on the 19th November, in the church of the Holy Cross at Warsaw, in the presence of the most distinguished Russian and Polish families in that city. 02 MONTHLY 1 MONTHLY COMMERCIAL REPORT. UR advices from the midland and other manufacturing counties are highly grati fying, in regard to the orders on hand, and the general employment of the manu facturers; but the export trade has been checked, not only by the severity of the season, but by the exhausted, unsettled, and still disordered condition of the countries which have been involved in the continental war. The merchants of London and others connected with Germany, have, with character. istic benevolence, opened a subscription for the relief of the thousands of families who have been deprived of every comfort by the passage of great armies through that illfated country. During the month, among other stimulants to the creation and zealous propagation of false reports, policies have been done to pay one hundred guineas on receiving ten gumeas, if the omnium is not at 25 per cent. premium, or the 3 per cents. at 72, before a certain day in February! Hence the hundreds of impudent fabrications circulated from day to day, to affect the sinister purposes of the parties!
