Mr Bagster has been engaged for some time in printing a Polyglott Bible, in one 4to volume. He proceeds with the care which so important a work demands;the First Part, containing the Pentateuch, is now ready for delivery. It had been considered a desideratum in literature, for a Student to have a Polyglott Bible, containing the original texts, and the versions used by the ancient churches, in a portable form, and at a moderate price; and the present minor Polyglott Bible, it is expected, will fully answer these wishes. Another class of readers will be gratified, by the above work being printed in four small pocket volumes, each language a complete volume, possessing this peculiar excellence, that by the pages of each volume agreeing with every other, any two languages may be interleaved together; and thus united in one volume, will not exceed the thickness of the common Pocket Bible. A fuller display of the whole work is exhibited in a Prospectus of 32 pages, which is delivered gratis; and which also details the nature of a supplementary volume, entitled " Scripture Harmony;" being a Concordance of parallel passages, agreeing page with page with the pocket volumes.

Mr Thomas Taylor is engaged in writing a Treatise on Infinite Series, in which he professes, by a notation somewhat analogous to that of decimals, to have discovered expressions, which, when expanded, will give infinite series, not to be obtained by any other method at present known. One among these is an expression, the expansion of which produces the series 1 - + - + -, &c., invented by Leibnitz, and which is equal to the area of a circle whose diameter is 1. Another expression, when expanded, gives the series I+i+i+is+i, &c. equal to the sixth part of the square of the circumference, when the diameter is 1.

FRANCE.

AN extraordinary occurrence took place at the theatre at Paris on the 24th March, at the representation of Germanicus, a new tragedy, from the pen of M. Arnault, one of the banished members of the Institute. The Duke of Berri, who was in his box with his suite, honoured the noble sentiments the tragedy is replete with, by his repeated approbation. All was tranquil during the representation, excepting when the genuine beauties of the piece called forth the rapturous applauses of the audi

ence. But when the author was called for, as is customary at Paris, a serious skirmish ensued. In an instant a thousand sticks were brandished in the air: the royalist officers were violently assaulted with bludgeons by the half-pay officers, who were in much greater numbers. The pit was carried by the Bonapartists; the boxes by the Royalists. The curtain drew up, and a numerous party of gendarmerie, with fixed bayonets, rushed into the pit, and order was restored, but not till after many persons had been much hurt. MM. De Cazes and D'Anglés waited on his Majesty, and represented that it would not be prudent that Germanicus should be repeated, as the
