Clarendon, vol. v. p. 511. * Rush. vol. vi. p. 638. Prince Rupert: Whitlocke, p. 88 v Rush. vol. vi. p. 641.

Five of these huge canvases hang in this room, R. and L., 509-513; 511, R. wall, The Family of Darius at Alexander's Feet, so charmed the king that he appointed Lebrun first royal painter, and granted him a patent of nobility. For thirty years the royal favourite was sole arbiter of taste and ruled supreme over the arts, until his star paled before the rising luminary, his rival Mignard.

There has not long since been in the Revenue Department a despatch with 16,263 pages of collections.

Blyth writes to me from Calcutta that there are some doubts about this bird. Ovid introduces it in his Fasti, L. vi. l. 139; and Tibullus in his Elegies, L. i. El. 5. Statius says Nocturnæque gemunt striges, et feralla bubo Damna canens. Theb. iii. l. 511. But Pliny, l. xi. c. 93, doubts as to what bird produced the sound; and the details of Ovid's description do not apply to an owl. Mr.

In 1871, 1876, and 1877 each, notwithstanding the economic chaos and the infinite destruction of capital occasioned by the war, those figures were almost equalled; in 1878 they were surpassed; in 1879 and 1880 each, over 5,000,000 bales were raised; in 1881, 1883, and 1886 each, over 6,000,000, the exact figure for the year last named being 6,550,215. In 1890, 7,472,511 bales were produced.

Then I wrote and compiled and condensed from my previous writings, including "The Avoidable Causes of Disease," a work of 511 pages, fully presenting the wine question in all its aspects, and the use of tobacco and opium, and the bad habits of women, faulty methods of rearing children, etc., etc., of which in paper covers I sent out over 10,000 to my New-Church brethren, and about 40,000 copies I sent to clergymen of various denominations.
