At the ballot of the Royal Society on Thursday, where

RAPIIAEL was rejected by 24 to S, and A LENANDER, a Tory, nearly rejected, Sir WILLIAM MorEswoteru, the Radical, had not a single black ball. This is curious enough, in a society Tory beyond all others : but I must do it the justice to say, that the Fellows are very scrupulous on the subject of moral character, and that in all periods of its history the Society has carefully excluded charlatans. —Frem a Correspondent.
