A TOURNAMENT AT VIENNA. The first representation of the " Carrousel," or tournament, took place on Wednesday lad in the imperial ridingmhool at Vienna. Five primeness, seven countesses, four Austrian archdukes, three members of foreign reigning families, 12 !princes sad dukes, 20 counts, 8 bums, and 3 knights took part in the pageant. All the Indies were vary richly sad tastefully dressed, sad some of them looked remarkably handsome ; hut norm of them could vie with the Empress, who looked perfectly lovely, although she was in deep mourning. One of the moat imposing figures in the cavalcade was the Archduke Leopold, who sat hi horse as if he had been nailed to the saddle. Count Gramm and Prince Enteric% Thum and Taxis also rode remarkably well. After the grand " extra" the men-at-arms and Bedouins went through various evo lutions. Quadrilles were then danced by the knights, S►- racens, and heralds, and very well they *ere executed. The heralds (Imperial riding miters) rode hirhly.trained entire horses of the purest Andalustur blood, and the bigh-apirited animal* appeared to feel that they woes being exhibited, foe they neighed londly, bees the air with their unshod hook pranced, and caracoled. All the performances were applauded, but the public seemed to be of opi nion that the palm must be awarded to the Spanish chargers and their professional riders. The knights and Saracens then tilted at the ring and at negroes' heads, and after having for • time displayed their dexteri►y with the lance and "ingot" they drew their swords and had a mimic fight with each other. While the eight-and-forty Christians and unbelievers were going through the above-mentioned evolutions, 12 couples were preparing for a quadrille, which they subsequently danced I to the great satisfaction of the spectators, who loudly I cheered the high-horn dames who, for charity's sake, had coneented publicly to perform feats of horsemanship. Be fore the court retired the cavalcade again entered the hall, and lowly saluted the Emperor and Empress. There will be two more representations of the "Carrousel," and the entire proceeds of the three performances will be given to the distressed weavers, as his Majesty pays the expenses for lighting the riding-school and constructing the tempo rary building is front of it.

THE PROPOSED RAILWAY VIADUCT ACROSS LUD OATI-HILL.—A memorial addrosed to the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, sad Common Council is now in course of signa ture by the inhabitants of Ludgate-hill, St. Paul's, Bridge- West, Farringdonatreet, Pleat-street, and the neighbour hood, urging them to take such step as they may consider most advisable to prevent the construction of the proposed viaduct across Loclpte-hill The memorialists state that by an act of parliament passed in 1860 the London, Chat ham, and Dover Railway Company were empowered to carry their railway acmes Ludgate-hill by means of a viaduct 18ft. high ; that they contemplate with great apprehension sad alarm the emotion of the projected viaduct over so crowded • thoroughfare ; that it will be productive of serioas injury to trade, of inconvenience, annoyance, sod danger, and will greatly disfigure that portion of the City ; while it will to some extent shut out from public view the cathedral of St. Paul, mad effectually prevent the widening of the street at any future time. They also represent that from the already ' overcrowded state al Ludgete-hill and the rapidity of its slops accidents are wow of frequent occurrence ; that the completion of the railway will largely increase the trellis east and west ; and that the oonstruction of such • viaduct will involve the necessity of erecting a similar unsightly "enactors over the intended new street from Blackfturs to the Mansion House in connexion with the Thames Embask meat. They believe that the railway may be car ri ed with ease under Ludgate-hill by means of a tunnel. The powers granted by set of parliament to the London, Chatham cud Dover Railway Company for works northward of Esti. street, Blackfnare, expire io August next, and a bill is now before parliament to extend the time, and to transfer these powers to • new company, to be called the Ludgate Station and Junction Railway Company. The memorialists there fore think an opportunity is thus afforded of making ar rangemente with the new company to curry out the proposed railway without constructing the obnoxious viaduct. CHEAP RAILWAYS Ile INDIA. —Lip ra h a t . railways are being laid down by the Indian Branch Tway Company, which, instead of 12,0001. • mile, the lowest average price of the guaranteed lime, will be bid down at 3,5001. a mile, of which the State will contribute 1,0001. in some shape or other as • subvention. All will be on the uniform &dim gauge of five sad a hall feet, and will meet the insuperable difficulty of the want of wood by iron sleepers. At Smarm the other day, Mr. Turnbull, the engineer, stated the fact that during the ten years he had been making the railway ten millions sterling had pasted into the hands of Hiodoo labourers and artisans, sad the rate of wages had risen 50 per met., while they had i greatly improved under the skilful I training of Europeans. ' This s one mods," says the Cal. cotta correspoodent of the Time, "in which railways civilise India not generally taken into amount, and if we remember that the guaranteed lines will before noshed' absorb 60 millions of capital. and that • new era of branch lime is beginning which in the next tea years most absorb 40 more, we have an idea of the work that is silently going on among the mamma India."

(nom °um cm 00111118PONDMIT.) ALEXANDRIA, 11Awe 9. It the outward manifestations of respect shown towards the Viceroy during the past two days bear any comparison whatever to the real sentiments entertained towards his highness by the European residents of this city, Ismael Pacba has every reason to be gratified with the position he at present occupies. Every section of the inhabitants com posing the foreign community of Alexandria have vied with each other in doing honour to his high ness, and testifying their pleasure at his return amongst them after his short official visit to Con stantinople. For several days previous to his arrival thousands of workmen were busily engaged in decorating the principal streets with banners and triumphal arches, while from every house floated the national flag of the crescent and the star, mingled here and there in close alliance with the flags of England, France, Italy, and Belgium. Innumerable coloured lamps, arranged in pictur esque and graceful devices, were suspended before the mansions occupied by the different consuls and bankers ; the windows of every house were filled with candles, varied at intervals by the lees bril liant but more fanciful-looking Chinese lamp ; and when the whole was lit up last night, a spectacle was presented to the eye which for magnificence has never been equalled here, and seldom exceeded even in the great capitals of Europe. His highness arrived here from Constantinople on Satur day night, but as no salutes are fired after sunset his arrival was little known until Sunday morning. When, however, be rode round the grand square yesterday evening, the brilliant lights and the blare of fireworks which greeted his approach must have convinced him that this outward manifestation of respect represented truly the feelings of the community, and that inas much as those feelings were prompted by the liberal promises lately made, his Highness will only find it necessary to fulfil those promises in order to dis seminate the same feelings abroad, when the favour able opinions of the foreign community here will be ratified by the public opinion of Europe. His Highness has returned from Constantinople decorated with the Osmaniti in brilliants, conferred upon him by the Sultan ; but his visit has been an expensive one, as, in addition to the other substan tial tokens of homage usual on similar occasions, the Viceroy presented to his Majesty the magni ficent paddle•yacht Feizi.gehad, recently brought from England by the late Said Pacha, and built, it is said, at a cost of 150,0001. The Soci6t4 Financiers d'Egypte, which com menced business here on the 23rd ult., have issued a circular notifying the completion of the iouncil of administration, by the nomination on the London board of Sir James Dalrymple Horn Elphinstone, Bart, M.P.

THE POLISH INSURRECTION. 01011 OUR OW/I coaßsapondwr.) BERLIN, MAICR 20. While the Prussians are gaily celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of their liberation from a foreign yoke, and for the moment forgetting their differ ences with their king and government, their un happy neighbours nobly persist in their gallant efforts to recover that independence which they lost almost at the same time as Prussia regained hers. There can be no doubt that the insurrection is making gigantic strides, and that Russia's grasp of Poland is already considerably relaxed. The Polish conflicts of the last week consist of an unbroken suc cession of victories on the part of the insurgents, who still wisely adhere to their rule of avoiding pitched battles or large concentrations of troops. The only exception to this rule is the corps of Lengiewics, which consists, it is said, of nearly 12,000 men, fully armed and e q u ip. ped. As Dictator and Commander-in-Chief, perhaps it was necessary that this gallant and popular leader should have under him the only Polish corps that can properly be called an army, as such a corps, besides investing the person et the Dictator of Poland with the necessary dignity and authority, has in itself an importance and prestige which must give great encouragement to the insurgents in all parts of the country. On the other hand, a proportionate discouragement would be the result of any disaster that might happen to this fine corps, which, considering that the great body of the Russian troops in Poland is now surrounding it on all sides, and that, having no base of operations, it is forced to carry its provisions, ammunition, and other impedimenta with it, is not at all an improbable contingency. The last news, however, from Langiewicz's head quarters, dated yesterday, is decidedly favourable. It appears that on the 18th he made a successful attempt to penetrate the net of troops which the Russian commanders are gradually draw ing around him, and that _yesterday he was in full pursuit of the Russians in the direction of Kielce. The battle took place at Za =on the left bank of the Nide, which river wire had crossed with his army nearChrobrze. The Poles, on arriving at Zagoszcz, occupied an ad vantageous position, with their left wing on the river, their right on some hills, and a vast plain, extending to Krzyzanowice, on their front. Their waggous, in charge of the cavalry and a small de tachment of infantry, were posted in the rear. About 4,000 men, with four guns, constituted the ' force of the Russians, who were commanded by Colonels Zwirow and Czengery. The battle began by an ineffective fire from the Russian artillery, which, however, fully occupied the attention of the Polish van. Meanwhile some Cossacks turned the right flank of the Poles, and assaulted the waggons in their rear. This caused some confusion, and the cavalry hastily retired with the waggons towards Opatowiec ; but the Polish rifles, coming up at this moment, soon beat off the Cossacks. The Poles now advanced against the Russians, and after •se•zing two of their guns forced them to retreat towards Busk, where they pressed them so closely that the retreat soon became a flight. Upwards of 500 rifles and some ammunition fell into the hands of the Poles in this encounter. So far the Polish army appears to have been successful ; but it has grown too large, and is too much encumbered with supplies to continue the guerilla warfare which has hitherto been its salvation, while it is neither strong nordisciptined enough to engage the formida ble army opposed to it in a succession of pitched battles. As the Polish army depends for existence on its supplies, and these would probably belost in case of a defeat, the first serious check inflicted on it will doubtless result in its dispersion, which, however injurious it might be to the prestige of the insurrection, will really be a very material support to it, by making Langiewice troops revert to those guerilla tactics in which they are strongest. It would be a great mistake to suppose that the heart of the insurrection is the army of Lingle wicz. In Lithuania the nobles have shown them selves so favourable to it that 500 of them have been imprisoned, as a precautionary measure, by the government. Large bodies of insurgents have appeared in the neighbourhood of Wilna, and on the 10th one of them attacked a detachment of the Imperial Guard at Rudiuka, defeating them with a loss of 250 men. A desperate battle was fought on the 16th and 17th between !Ennui and the Posen frontier, in which the whole of the Russian troops quartered in that town numbering upwards of 3,000 men, were engaged with 1,000 Poles under Mieleucki. On the first day the Poles were forced to retire to Londek ; but next morning, hav ing received reinforcements, they attacked and routed the Russians with great slaughter. There is also a numerous and well-armed insurgent band, under Colonel Czechowski, at Taruogrod, where it has established a national government. The eastern district of Lublin is occupied by another strong detachment under Lelevel and Lewauduwski, who twice defeated the Russian troops—the first time taking their guns, and the second using them against their former possessors. In Warsaw the government is in an absolute state of isolation. One by one its warmest ad herents are dropping off. Even Archbishop Feliuski has at length decided to follow the example of his fellow-members in the Council of State, by seeding in his resignation. The answer from St. Petersburg to the request of the Grand Duke for instructions with regard to all these resignation,' was characteristic. " Prognat' ich "—Turn them out—were the instructions of the government, whose avowed object is to change Poland into a desert. THE AMERICAN Quairricue.—A public meeting, convened by the committee of the Sheffield Emancipation Society, was held in the Temperance-hell, Towubradatreet, on Wednesday sight, the Muter Cutler (Henry Harrison, Esq.). in the chair. The meeting was addressed by the Rev. W. E. Haley. late of General Burnstle's army; Mr. John Crete, and the Hon. and Rev. Baptist Noel. In the course of a masterly address Mr. Noel considered the suggestion that the South would of themselves abolish slavery if they succeeded in establishing their independence. After showing what the South had already done and suffered from love of slavery, Mr. Noel said W h did the privilegedclasses give up of their own free will the tives upon which their wealth, enjoy. meat, and outdoor depended: Human nature was too aelfiah for that. The Suut:iern slaveholders depended upon their slaves for their revenue. Slavery made them princes greater than our nobles. They were kings of men, not of scree merely. Slavery gave them land, loaded their tables with deintiee, supplied them with the choicest wines of Europe, educated their children, enabled them to travel, and ren dered them in their estimation the most superior race upon earth. Would they surefire all that to mere sentiment of humanity! To abolish slavery would not only be to macri fie' wealth, Task, and political power, but, what was worse than all this in their own estimation, it would be to make their 3,000,000 niggers their fellow-citi sees Shall we—thus they tattooed—the aristocrats, the imperial race of American slaveholders, ever come down to the level of the nigger—shall we have to ask him to labour, and see the wretch sorer in our face' if be pleases! No ; let us rather die to the last man than sub mit to each a degradation. Away, then, with all each de lusive expectations. If Englishmen wished to see the greatest outrage that now exists upon the earth brought to an owl, let them net themselves, at far as Englishmen could, against the omens of the oligarchy which was fightiog to rivet more firmly the chains of the slave. The Mayor of Liverpool presented on Saturday last, at the Town-ball, three silver medals and lit., which had been voted by the Royal National Lifeboat institutios to Thomas Evana, Thomas Evans, jun., William Evans. sad formal other men, in acknowledgment of their gallut exertions in putting off in a boat, during a heavy gale of wind oo the night of the 20th and the morning of the 214 Jaeumry, and afterwards masisting to moue a large number of persons from the passeoger ship John H.

Every musical reader will see that every pima in the shove programme is a rise d'aurre of its clam. The gametal, melodious symphony of Haydn, and the gigantic work of Beethoven, both showed to the utmost advantage the varied powers of the superb orchestra The beauty of the wind Matsu mints UM even more striking than usual ; the topes of 11, Brindsen's Bute, in particular, attracted especial notice, and we found, op inquiry, that he was plying cm a sew instru ment, Clinton's Sate, with graduated holes, which obtained the prise medal Isetyear at the International Exhibition, Oar excellent Blagrove, who, as a violinist, may well be called "the Champioo of England," covered himself withglry by his perforeanatof Spohr's concerto. In listening to bleary:Lucite filmy tress, his pure and finished style, and his brilliant execution, we almost fancy we are hearing the illustrious master bimetal, from whose instruction. Slavers derived many of his floe qualities. Miss Louisa Pyne was the only vocalist, and wee a host in herself. The two Linder of Beethoven. which she sang with Mr. Cush's. admirable pianoforte accompaniment, formed a most delightful novelty, rendered the more pleasing by her having sung them with Mr. William Bills' elegant and truly poetical English Tor sion of the words. Altogether this coooert was a musical treat of the highest order, and was so appreciated by the audience, as was evident from the applause bestowed every part of it. DRAMA. ST. JAIEWI;MALL.I Mr. Arthur Sketchley (whom we noticed favour ably on his Ant appearance at the Hanover-square Room; about eighteen months ego) has at last Inman a member of the family of regular entertainers. Mr. Owen Jones has fitted up a very elegant home for him in the small room of St. James's-hall, and here be made his bow last night before a crowded and distinguished audience. Mr. fiketehley's entertainment is divided into two parte —one called " A Quiet Morning"—and the other, " Mrs. Brown at the Play," and both are worked out without any aid from scenery and dresses. He sings, dances, and per sonatas many characters of an amusing and familiar type— the bed and most elaborate being undoubtedly Mrs Brown —s, lady of the Sarah (lamp order—who gives a description of her visit to the Victoria Theatre. She dwells upon the fatigues of her journey—the people she spoke to—the opening of the doors—the pit—the orchestra—and the drama, in a narrative which lasts about half an hour. This sketch is full of amusing details, which are all drawn from life, and Mr. Sketehley's delivery of it is ex. tamely humorous and free from effort It fame the solid dish of the evening, and it brings the entertainment — which is never tedious—to a very joyous conclusion. Mr. fiketchley was very well received, and hie sketches of cha racter can hardly fail to become popular. VICTORIA. The theatre which Mrs. Brown in Mr. Sketchley's Entertainment persists in ailing Queen Victoria's owe theatre, has seen many changes. When it began life u the Coburg it had a dramatic company of some pretension. Mr. Booth, the tragedian, who was set up in opposition to Edmund Lean, played high tragedy on its boards, supported by men like Barrymcce and H. Kimble. The performances may have been a little coarser in the grain than those at the two patent theatres, bat, at any rate, they were saved from one degradation. A pert, forward child, called the infant Boecius, was never made ► "star" of there, and allowed to stride ►bout the stage in Baader, surrounded by actors three feet higher than himself. Bach an appeeranos ia Lambeth might have led to some novel " businem," that would have insulted Shakspeare still further, for the audience would certainly have directed Laertes to birch his enemy. The patrons of the Coburg, or Victoria Theatre, wore always somewhat unruly. Their method of applauding lege was to curse him loudly—tete/I him plainly from the gallery what they would do to his ugly head if they could only get him amongst them. More than forty years ago an eminent dramatic critic draws this gloomy picture of them :—" In stead of the rode, naked, undisguised expression of curiosity and wonder, there was nothing but an exhibition of the most petulant cockneyism and vulgar slang. Al! oar former notions and theories were termed topsy-turvy. The genius of St. George's-fields prevailed, and you felt yourself in a bridewell or a brothel, amidst Jew-boys, pickpooketa, pros titutes, and inountebanka. The object was not to admire, but to vilify sod degrade everything. The audience did not hiss the actors—that would have implied • serious feeling of disapprobation, and sotneilaing like a diaappointed wish to be pleased—but they laughed, booted at, nick nauied, pelted them with oranges and witticisms to show their contempt for them and their art." It is easy to see that neither good plays nor good actors could live is such an atmosphere as this, and the Victoria soon gave up all preteceions to be considered more than • huge "gaff," differing only in sire from the pearly booths of the New Cut. During the last ten or fifteen years--particularly since the death of Mr. Osbaldiston—it has been known as • very sooty, grew temple of domestic drama—s place where mud, orange-peel, fried fish bones, and broken ginger beer bottles accumulated in the pit from week to week, and where beer and dirty perspiretion trickled from the gallery down the fronts of the boxes. To do it justice, however, the morality of its pieces was far above that of popular West-end coenediettas, though the low comedians generally indulged in that freedom of " gagging" which always ends in vulgarity and coarse allusions. After • long career of thug kind, the management was changed, and the present lessees, Messrs. Frelopton and Fenton, got possession of the theatre at the close of last year. They cla•oed the house thoroughly from top tx bottom, decorated it in ► pleasing and sensible style, taking care that the brilliancy of the interior should not eclipse the brilliancy of the stage. The house is very large, and tolerably well constructed ; the lighting and ventilation have been improved ; and it is now one of the few impres. sive theatres in London. The audience, though they are as numerous as ever, are cleaner and more attentive—a result ' that has been at once attained by the improvement of the theatre. The stage arrangements alao show the same alteration for the better. Mr. Inunpton has brought his quarter of a century's experience as a hallet•awcer to bear upon the grouping of figures ; and Mr. Fenton provides sensory as good as that which be has so loog painted for the West end theatres. The performers are now dressed io keepiag with the characters they represent, and the properties are no longer scanty and shabby. Last night a new drama, hy Mr. George Bolton, was produced under the direction of Mr. Frampton, with some excellent scenery and effects by Mr. Fenton. This pies is celled the Enyi ore?, and, as far am we know, it is the first attempt yet made to dramatise some of the leading incident. in the life of George Stephenson. Of course ruany things are shown which would astonish Mr. Samuel Smiles and the minim who have read the famous bio graphy, but the choice of subject is bold and original, and the " whole strength of the company " is displayed in t he dew.. A fair at Ovingham, the old bridge at Newcastle, Chat Moss by moonlight, and a railway cutting, are the chief Borneo ; and some lively dames and mimic add much to the effect of the piece. The mammon of this home are evidently determined to deserve IMMO. They are not trying to attract notice by dabbling in "stars," or in badly perforamd legitimate drams, but they are trying to improve the audiences, the tb.etre, and the dram► of their district, sod their reforming efforts are entitled to reeoguitioe.

Mr. FAIUILLL stated that he bed attended a meeting at Blackburn, oocsisting of a deputation from the board of guardians and the relief committee, and he was happy to ay that it was unanimously resolved that the whole of the al./e bodied men should be employed upon the system adopted at Padiham. He regarded the question of manual employment at Blackburn as settled. Oa Thursday next he should attend a similar meeting at Stockport, at which the same subject would be discussed.

THE MANSION•HOU3E COMMITTEE AND THE STALYBRUDGE RIOTS. . . Yesterday an urg --- est appeal was the Mansion. hone, committee by a wnttee oommtmicatwo from the Rev. W. Worth Hoare, the Rev. Thomaa Flood, and the lies. William Ball, clergymen in Stalybridge, that they would take into immediate comideration a memorial for warded to them some data ago, and signed by about 1,370 of the unemployed operatives in that town, complaining of a reduction in the rate of relief to 2s. 5d., and more espe cially that they were to receive it, not in money, as hereto fore, but by tickets oo shopkeepers. The memorialists also declare that the 2s. sd. would be utterly insufficient for them to subsist upon, sod that great numbers of single persons will thus he left without the means of paying either rent or lodgings, and left without home or shelter. The men strongly objected to be paid by ticket. because they were able to spend mousy advantageously, and it looked ma if they were not fit to be trusted with it, which wounded their self. respect. A special meeting of the Mansion-house committee has been scummed to take the came into consideration. Mean ' while Stalybridge is not the ally place from which a remonstrance has come as to the reduction of the male of relief by the local relief committees. A petition, signed by about 1,600 of the inhabitant' of Dukinfield, has also been addressed to the Mausim.hoomi committee. They state that the relief hitherto granted by the local relief com mittee has been inadequate to sustain them in health and strength ; and they beg the immediate and earnest attention of the eorninittee to the fact that the local relief committee has within the last few days adopted a still loser scale of relief, which, if adhered to, the memorialists wonder will be attended with the worst oossequenoni. The inhabitants of Calcutta, including many of the native population, have nobly requited the sympathy shown by England on the occasion of the ladle& famine. Yesterday the Lord Mayor received from them, through the Bengal Chamber of Commerm there, a further contribution of 5,0001., making, with previous remittances, the munificent sum of 35,0001.
