Of Thoughts suggested by the Past Year, we are only
induced to preserve the following portion:-

Slowly, in prospect, we advance on time
As we from infancy to manhood climb;
And old age seems-so distant it appears-
Ages instead of what it is-but years.
But take a retrospect, and but a dream
Upon the memory the past will seem.

"The present Number opens with a review of the Life of Richter, one of the most extraordinary and truly German of German writers. Public fame attributes this paper to a gentleman who is better qualified for his task than almost any man in Europe, out of the circle of the chosen few in Germany. The next article to which we wish particularly to refer the intelligent reader, is occupied by a discussion of the information concerning the identity of Vacarius, the first professor of civil law in England,-the work of the very learned Professor Wench, of Leipzig. The paper itself is mainly occupied by discussions touching the study of civil law in England. It is marked by every feature of sound judgment, ample information, lucid arrangement, clearness and strict purity of style, and precision of thought. We attribute this able paper to the same hand which has furnished several essays on similar subjects to the Foreign Review."-Caledonian Mercury.
