Mr. Sothern's accident boa had the effect at this theatre of miring two, at leant, of those standard English comedies which no company in Leedom is so well prepared to perform. For the last fortnight Sheridan's Rivals has taken an alternate share with Goldsmith's She Stoops to Conquer, in attracting the public, the principal parte being sustained by Mr. Backstops, Mr. Chippendale, Mr. Forma, Mr. Howe, Yin Angell, Miss Soowdee, and Mrs. Fitirwilliant The Haymarket Theatre, setting aside a few faults of Goa 'traction, is exactly the size for a perfect comedy house ; not so large that the actors are compelled toexaggeorate their acting in optimum effects to the audience, and not too small to keep that audience at a respectful distance. it is neither a spouting arena, nor a "g►ff ;" and though Its scenery is always good, and sometimes brilliant, it never degenerates into a mere peep-show. We have so lately spoken of the great and almost maim merits of Mr. Backstone's Tony Lumpkin in She Stoops to Conquer • a perform►nce which we are glad to am will be re peated several time, this week—that there is no need to en large upon them now. Mr. Backstooe, like the late Mr. Wright, and a very few others, is amotally a low comedian or humorist, and everthiog he does overflows with this pommel quality. Many performers man or are pushed forward as low comedians who are character-actors—men whose personal humour is either small or bard, bat who are clever io manatee-taring stage denim sad versatile in expression. We remember seeing Mr. Bucks Woo is any form in which his personal identity was destroyed by wigs, paint, and dresses ; and we may conscientiously add that we never wish to see him in each a form. As a gamine personal humorist be represents one of the rarest orders of actors, and represents them with a spirit which bee in creased rather than diminished. Yr. Bothers will probably make his re-appearance about the middle of the week in a little piece in which be will sustain the only visible character. The idea of such a piece, worked out by Yr. Craven, we believe is his own ; and if something more than a mere " monopolylogue " (to um a piece of theatrical fine language) is gives on, it ought to be suoesufuL As Imam Amin:max Caar..—The "Sligo ab duction case" is the latest rural romance. Mrs. Moran and Ler daughter Mies Homes mane to the watering-place of Strandhill, adjoining Sligo, last August, in the hope of be nefiting by the invigorating breezes of the Atlantic, and as the young lady was fair, and reputed wealth n y, she wee mach admired. One night, while at • "dance, • manage came that a young man wanted to see her at **door. On approaching • few paces outside to speak to him, she was seized by • number of persons and spirited away. Next morning medical aid had to be obtained, the young lady's health being in • most precarious state. On the following day four men were arrested on informations. One individual, said to be of the party, went by steamer to Liverpool, but the eye of a constable wee on him, and he was arrested when stepping oat of the Sligo steamer on the quays of Liverpool.

' end' I prefer to omntuuni cats only *tat I can vauch'ifer. The wily reliable information today from the seat of tsar is not very important. Bo far from having made a precipitate attack on the heights of Diip el, Hen Prussian are but too well aware of the difficulties they have to contend with, and that t i b: in cition can only be taken, at a tremendous of life and then only &Vendors orient. Though the Danishl garrison is well supplied with food asd ammunition, strong works, and stout hearts, they are resolved to 'sake a most deter mined resistance, and to leave no stone unturned that can tend to increase the lees of their oppo-, neat& Thus they are now actively makffig use' of the peso to undermine the different works, so as to be able to blow them up when no longer tenable. But in the meantime the Prussians are not idle, and have not only placed their troops in such a position and in such strength across the pen*mla of Sundewit as to prevent the possibility of the Danes making • desperate sortie, and falling on the rear of the advanced army corp at Apenrade, but their pioneers are hard at work throwing up batteries for rifled field guns, some of which are completed and armed, ready for use when the signal for attack is made. But in the meantime diplomacy is busy, and the com mander-in-chief, with the laudable wish to prevent the effusion of blood, has sent • message to the Danish commander to say that unless he evacuates Aleen, which is undoubtedly an appendage of Biasing, and contains the cradles of two of the branches of the ducal family in the towns of Son derburg and Augusteuburg, he shall march into Jutland, and occupy that province as a material guarantee or substitute for the eventual possession of the Island of Alien. It may be asked by what right can Austria and Prussia take such an nun-; sual step ; but it must be borne in mind that the whole of their proceedings are of such an extraor dinary and abnormal character, that one part is as little to be justified as the other, and inter national law is quite set aside to make room for motives of expediency, or, as the Prus sians call it, "the policy of the free hand." As members of the German Confederation, Austria and Prussia had no right to cross the Eider, and as European great powers, when they chose to set themselves up as the champions of 81eswig and attack the Dates without even • declaration of war, they published to the world that their programme was and still is to preserve the integrity of Den mark, but nothing was said of taking possession of Jutland. It is a common saying that new brooms sweep clean, but the Civil Commissioners find it no easy matter to sweep at all. In their proclamation on entering upon the duties of their office they pomp ously prohibited all political unions or demonstra tions, ands great flourish of trumpets was made about this prohibition being more especially appli cable to any allusions to the question of succession , and yet scarcely have they time to take possession of any place before the inhabitants, caring as little for the prohibition as the people of Holstein for the Federal Commissioners of that Duchy, proclaim the pretender as Duke of Sleswig-Holstein. This was the case in all the towns and places in the south, and such is the case now at Apenrade and }briers leben in the extreme north. The Fleusburg Zeitung, though written in the German language, has always been a steady parti san of the Danes. When the town fell into the hands of the allies, and Danish protection was withdrawn, that journal for some days maintained a dogged silence, and besides the paid advertise ments published no political news at all, but filled up their columns with anecdotes, reviews of books, scientific jottings, and the like. Now they have altered their tactics, and give, it is true, extracts from other political journals, dividing the contents into the two headings of " Inland" and " Ans land," and continuing to publish under the former category of " Home Intelligence" all their news from Copenhagen, Alain, and Bleswig, whilst their information from Hamburg, Berlin, Frankfort, and Vienna they classify as • Foreign Intelligence." This is their mode of offering passive resistance to the powers that be—as long as it lasts. But now an opposition paper has just been started under the title of the Fleeebury Tagblatt, or daily sheet, ad vocating strongly the interests of the Pretender, though published under the very eyes of the Civil Commissioners. The affair of the Baillie Blaunfeldt, which made such • sensation • short time ago, now appears to be not nearly of so grave • nature as was at first represented. Steps have also been taken in his favour by the government at Copenhagen, and Herr von Quaade, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, has made representations to A ustria and Prussia through the medium of the ambassadors of some of the friendly and neutral powers, laying stress on the fact that King Christian VIII. did not take away the life of a single spy, enemy, or traitor that fell into his power during the last war of 1848-50. It is therefore to be hoped that Austria and Prussia will make a note of this. A large transport of horses arrived here yester day from Berlin as a remount for the cavalry and artillery in Sleswig. Between the 20th of January and the present day, the number of Austrian and Prussian soldiers quartered in this city (chiefly for one night only) on their march to Sleswig, has amounted to 50,500, besides the horses of the cavalry and artillery. Of this number only about 10,000 were quartered in private families, the rest having found voluntary accommodation at inns and public-houses, for which the landlords received pay ment. Besides the above 50,500 mea, about 12,000 arrived and passed through without stopping. When I add that the army corps of Prince Frede rick Charles that marched through Holstein by way of Lubeck and Kiel numbered upwards of 40,000 men, it will be seen that the allied armies mus tered more than 100,000 combatants. How many of them will return from their military promenade remains to be seen. The three battalions of Prussian infantry that have been quartered here for several days have now left us and proceeded to join the active army in Sleswig. An Austrian corps of 5,000 men is an nounced for arrival hare next week as a reinforce ment for the army in the North. An instance of injustice and tyranny on the part of the Prussian officials in Holstein has just been perpetrated at Kiel, where Professor Molbeck, a native Dane, and professor of the Danish language at that university, has been arrested as a spy, and sent to prison, charged with giving a cler gym an who intended going to Copenhagen, a private letter of introduction to his friends there. DILNNARIL AND 7111 MIMI= 07 1720 ♦ND 1727. —The Memorial Diplousatioise (organ of the Austrian government) says that the detailed note in which the Neigh cabinet called for the armed ambience el Prance, England, Ramis, and Sweden. for the recce quest of Slanelg, was dated sth inst. "The Danish go vernment bases its request on the guarantees given to the Danish crows by these four Powers in the treaties of 1720 and 1727. Now the Powers hare yet replied." "As re gards France," coetiente the Memorial, " we believe we ere not mistaken is affirming that the government of the Emperor is little disposed to take for Its guidance obsolete treaties, which me attended, in the first place, by the In convenience of applying to circumstances which so longer slit, sod in the ',stood, of being capable of diver, niter preloliena."

The following is an extract from a private letter dated Copenhagen, Feb. 9, describing the manner in which the news of the retreat of the army was received in that capital : Aped now a few lloU to tell you • little of the mad state of things here. You have no doubt seen in the English papers that the " Danish army had evacuated the Donne wake and retreated to another fortification." This might . not seam so very dreadful to you ; but no words can d► scribe the miserable sensation such intelligence measioud here. On Saturday morning a telegram announced .that "the Germans had posamion of the Dannewerke." This wag had atoned, and everybody looked grave and solemn ; but when the next telegram announced " the Dense bad retreated," the excitement and rage of the people knew no bounds. John and I were walking down the street in which the King lives (knowing nothing of this sad news), and saw Dotzac, the French minister, with two other gentlemen standing on the pavement, gerti euleting violently as we paned them. I could only hear, " Maim, Monsieur, a roe oar/Ivrea/is pea." A little farther on another little knot of great men, Donut Daniskiold and ethers, looking end talking u if the world had to an end. A few yards further we found a man distributing telegrams to little crowds of eager faces, and so we reached home • little after 5 o'clock. At half-past six, juste' we had begun dinner, Jaime, our fat-tot/00, appeared at lila door with such • face. " What's the matter now, Jansen said we both, with open months and knife and fork in hand. "Oh, sir, there'll be such • rising to-night Bredgade is quite full of people, and they swear they will ! have the King's life. The Life Guide are called out, and what will happen no one ain talL" Well, we told him to go land bur all he could, and come in again in an hour. We finished our dinner, with rather diminished appetite', and bad scarcely done so when fearful shoats announced the approach of the mob. Of course we tamed down the gar and rushed to the windows, sod on they poured in streams, shouting, yelling, he., " Down with the German," meaning the King, who they thought at that time had been cognisant of the retreat, and betaayed his country into the hands of the Germans. The mob was on lie way to the Prime Minister's house when they broke all his windows, and not iodine him returned pea our house again to Bredpde, where a frightful seem took piece. The Life Guards were obliged to charge with naked alma, the people using large stones, with which they wounded 14 policemen, five very seriously, sad several of the Guards. This went on till 3 in the morning, when things subsided till Sanday evening, when/mother scene of the same kind took place ; but instead of sang bayonets and guns, the authorities had fire engines brought out, from which they pumped water on the crowd. Yesterday and to-day have been quiet; expluatious have taken place, the priocipal mash have been recalled, and every one says they will forfeit their lives for what they have dope : but I hope they will be able to prove they could not help it. But the fact la, patriotism !is such as absorbing passim of these people that I believe they would lose relatives and fortune rather thee yield an inch of their country or a tittle of their country's humour. Among the better classes the effect of what they consider so disgraceful an affair is something terrible to witness. You c/moot epeak to a gentleman or lady bat the tears are in their eyes, and they look as thoroughly dejected as if they I had lost their all on earth. We were aimed to two dinner parties this week—of mares both are put off, and misery is the orderof the day. Added to this the weather is frightful. The entire country is one sheet of ice. To day the cold is more intense than they say has been known for yeah. The people in the greasers literally sliding along, for they cannot walk. I was amused to see in some English paper that the weather here was " spring -like." I only know that since the 30th of December we have sever been without seeing fresh fallen or frozen mow on the ground—so what sort of spring that may be I don't know. Everybody is saying that heir drab of the soldiers most be frozen to death tei-night ; this, added to the endless number of people bewailing the Ices of relatives and friends, makes everything frightfully gloomy. Mr. H— saw yesterday over two thousand sol diers in the hospital, brought in vends from the seem of action. Poor little Denmark ! Unless England emu to the rescue, I fax there is no hops for her, with an the frightful waste of life and money that is going on. Since the war began letters are a full week coming ,or going to England—sometimes we have a post in two days running, and then not one for three or four. POLAND. The Brealau Gautte says that the higher Russian authorities in Poland are full of doubt as to the ultimate success of Russia in the present struggle. They are convinced that notwithstanding the num berless cruelties and acts of violence, the deporta tion of thousands to Siberia, the imprisonment of others, the countless executions and murders, and theeollection of all the troops at thedisposal of Russia in Poland, not a step in advance has been gained, the insurrection still continuing, and preparing fresh forces for the spring. The indefatigable perseverance of the Poles, their faith and self-sacrifice in the held, and their contempt of death, inspire the Russians with involuntary admiration, and strengthen the conviction that to keep Poland much longer under Russian rule is impossible. The same paper adds, with reference to the execution of Jankowski, which is mentioned with waive :sal indignation by the German press :—" If the execution of Jankowski is, as we are convinced, more than an injustice, for it is a political blunder, the mode in which the men ' team was executed can still less be justified, for it proves the greatest want of consideration. Donieo, a villain condemned to death for murder and rape, dice the death of a soldier, and is shot, while at the same time the hero Jankowski dies on the gibbet, not even being allowed the favour of death by a bullet." Dominic NAAS., an innkeeper in the village of Borki Paduchny, in Podlachia, was hanged on the 6th February, in pursuance of the sentence of a court-martial, which found him guilty of being • "political offender." Vincent Sulzycki, • labourer of Wisztynce, has anticipated a similar fate by cutting his throat in prison with • razor. The promised oomedy of M. Alexandre Dumas, ;as., at the Gyms's*, L'Asti des Penises, is to be brought forward, it is said, about the 90th proziato. [TWOPENCE • INDIA, ...yl.. By the arrival of the Bombay 11;11 we have advicea from Bombay to January 29th, and from Calcutta to January 20th. .. Sir John Lawrence ended in Calcutta on the evening of the 12th January, and immediately as aimed the oboe of Viceroy and Governor-General of India. His excellency, who was in apparently the beet of health, was received with the most enthusiastic acclamations on the part of the European and native public, and with an official pomp and state surpassing what is usual on such occasions. His appointment to the head of the Government of India has not only given the highest satisfaction to the native population, but has been received by them with a feeling of gratitude to her Majesty's government. The chiefs of Cia-Sutlej and Trans-Sutlej States are rejoicing at his advent, and making great prepara tions for his reception, in the expectation of hi 4 being soon amongst them. His excellency, how ever, does not go to the Punjab at present, and Calcutta will be the headquarters of the govern ment of India until next cold season. The viceroy held his first levee on the 16th of January, and it was moat numerously and brilliantly attended. On the tort lflth ict of Januaryyl oliajwittapue.w ... his excelle ncy open ed s opied mst the from Oude, and many of the Baboon and gentlemen of Calcutta attended the ceremony and helped to improve its appearance by their brilliant dresses. The Sikhs werelvery attentive, and inquisitive about everything. The exhibition is considered a great success. The Imperial Council was summoned to !vessel' ible in Calcutta fcr legislation on the 4th February. The meeting would be a short one, as it is intended only to clear off the arrears of Lord Elgin's admi nistration, and to dispose of pressing project.. which cannot be postponed. All other measures are to be deferred for consideration at a meeting to be held later in the year, the place and precise time being left for future appointment. A special general meeting of the Bombay Cham ber of Commerce was held on the 19th of January, to consider the important subject of the introduction of gold into the currency of India, without any re ference at present to the mode of introducing it or to the subject of a standard. The meeting was au unusually large one, and the following resolution was adopted by it, with but one or two dissen tients :—" That this meeting, recognising the de fectiveness and inefficiency of our present monetary system, and the pressing need of reform, appoint a committee to prepare a memorial, urgently praying government to introduce a gold currency into India." There are serious disturbances in Cabool amongst the contending factions. The brothers Azim Khan and Afzul Khan are up in arms against Share Ali Khan, whom our government during the Bitten& war recognised as the legitimate ruler of Ail ghanistan. Captain Sherard Osborn, C. 8., the Commander in-Chief of the Anglo-Chinese squadron, arrived in Bombay on the 13th of January, in the Eeangsoo, Commander D. Crnikshank, R.N. The squadron has been entirely disbanded, and all the ships with the exception of the Keangsoo and the Keangtung, both of which' are lying in the harbour of Bombay, are on their way home. The Bombay government has consented to relieve Captain Osborn of the charge of these two steamers, until he learns the views of the English government. The Coromandel, having on board Colonel Patrick Stewart, Sir Charles Bright, Captain C. Stewart, and Dr. Esselbach, left Bombay on the 21st January for Kurrachee, whence she will pro ceed to Gwadur to meet the Marian blioore and Kirkham with 300 miles 'of cable, which will be towed thither by the Semiramis and Zenobia. The laying of the cable westward from Gwadar towards the landing place near Cape Mussendom, on the Arabian coast, will then be commenced. The government of India has granted permission to Maharaja J ang Babadoor, G. C. B. , to apprehend British subjects trespassing on the Nepal territory pending a reference to government on each occasion. H. E. Sir William Mansfield, in consequence of the heavy cost of living in Bombay, has proposed to government that rations in kind be issued to the families of European soldiers, in lieu of the grant of family allowance. MORE DEPREDATIONS BY THE ALABAMA. The Times of India says, in its impression of Jan- 29:—" The Confederate privateer Alabama is on our oust She captured and burnt the Amen as ship Emma Jams off Trevandrum on the 14th indant, and landed the °apish: and mew at Anima* on the 17th indent. The Emma Jane oiled from Bombay on the sth instant, bound to Amherst. The Alabama ie now reported to be cruising off Bombay harbour, lying in wait for the American ion ship now doe, and for several American ships in this port under Matter to put to es within a few days. It is run expected that she may ease into pork for the purpose of waling. It la earlainly a very awkward con sideration in curl reception of Captain Semmes, should he venture in, that it is by no means certain at present whose property he las been destroying. It may be regarded u certain, that if the Northern Slides bring this war to a suoarsaful close, they will at once prefer a demand upon na, for indemnity for the vessels and cargoes that Clapham Semmes bouts that be has destroyed. Nor is it by any means certain that this demand can be roccess folly resisted. For the late arrest at the Alexandra, sad other used, fitting out for similar minim in the porta of England, i• a tacit admindon that the Alabama ought not to have been allowed to lean Liverpool. It is plainly prema ture, therefore, to conclude that Captain Semmes is destroying American property. It ix poutble that it will be found at last, that it is British property that he is des troying, in his long piratical maim ; and that the home tu mor may have to pay the loss to the Let farthing. Should the demand for indemnity be made—as it is owiain it will ba—we shall have to refer the matter to arbitration of same other power, with the sot improbable, and very un pleasant, result of finding the award given against us. Jubilations, therefore, on the part of Englishmen at the moos of the Alabama, are strangely out of place ; for should her depredations eventually fall upon ourselves, we shall justly bare made ourselves the laughing-dock of the world by our folly. Unpleasant as an award against us in this matter would be, the national interests we believe would be better served the:eh) , than by an award in our favour.
