lecturcd last evening before fair audience at the
hurcfl in Mubery-strcot His subject was the
character OF the English Language; il was dis
cusscd with more trilliancy and effect than sound

tory TO the thoughtful and nqnifng student, was at
least well calculated 10 please the ear and the
taste by its elegant periods aud the finished and
effective though occasionally too theatrical man
ner in which it was delivered. He traced the
history Of the English Tongue from its SaNo"
source, and spoke Of the rich accessions in strength
nnd beauty it has received from kindred languages
