Quarterly List of New Publications. The list of new publications contained in the numbers of the United States Literary Gazette, from April 1st to June 15th, both included, amounts to two hundred and fiftyone volumes, and may be thus distributed: Arts and Sciences, four; Biography, four; The Drama, three; History, five; Law, twelve; Medicine, seven; Miscellaneous, forty-five; Poetry, five; Political Economy, one; Theology, fifty-one; Education, twenty-seven; Politics, four; Voyages, one; Agriculture, three; Geography, three; Topography, one; Transactions of Philosophical Societies, one; Foreign Works reprinted, sixty-two.

Yellow Fever. By a calculation of the effects which the yellow fever at various periods has produced at Charleston, S. C., it appears that it is not equally fatal to all classes of the inhabitants. The deaths of the blacks (who form a third part of the population) have been only at the rate of a half per cent.; while the French have lost at the rate of one; the Germans, one and a half; the Dutch, two; the Americans, three; and the English, four per cent. Generally speaking, persons of a sanguine temperament have been most in danger, for the mortality among them has amounted to a tenth, while among a bilious people, it has been only a fiftieth. Females have suffered much less than males.

Suicides in England. The number of suicides committed in Westminster, a part of London, containing, in 1821, one hundred and eightyone thousand inhabitants, from the year 1812 to the year 1824, both included, was two hundred and ninety, of which two hundred and seven were committed by men, and eighty-three by women. In all these cases, except five, verdicts of insanity were returned. During the eight last years of this period, the average number of suicides per annum was less by almost six than in the previous years.

Silk Manufacture. A new process for winding and spinning the silk, directly, at one operation, from the cocoons of the silk-worm, has been invented by M. Bonnard, and the machines he has had constructed for this purpose enable him to procure silk of the greatest degree of fineness. This new mode of spinning is adapted to spin from cold, warm, or hot water. The principles of the method seem to consist in the precision and regularity of the motion of the machines, and the arrangement for preventing the silk being wound on the same place too frequently. In M. Bonnard's machine, one hundred and ninety revolutions take place before the thread is again laid over that previously wound upon the same place.
