NEWS OF THE WEEK.

WE may commence out "News of the. Week" by, stating that the week has -afforded no news.. There has been no leading question to be discussed, no remarkable event to chronicle. On lOoking over our columns, we can hardly call to mind an occasion on which they presented a more miscellaneous appearance. In London and its neighboUrhood, there have been the customary pastimes of the season. In the Country, business has been mingled with plea- sure. The meeting at Edinburgh was a proud event for the Mo- dern Athens. Neither have the Unions throughout the North been idle. Every thing speaks of sturdy preparation, which the utmost confidence of hope has not suffered to relax. We have taken a brief note of those matters; yet, smith to say, we are affected- in Some theaSure by the influence of the week, and at the present moment almost feel inclined to exchange our gathering cry for " Any thing but the Bill." Next week, we shall buckle ourselves* once more to our tash;--not, however, without ardent longings. th&t it were happily ever, and that we were .permitted at least for a season to tall back into the quiet and unobtrusive chap. meter from which nothing but the-strong and general excitement of a nation could'have withdrawn us.
