THE CARLSTMAS AMUSEMENTS. When the time cornea for Macaulay 's New Zealander to stand upon the ruins of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, he will find our Christmas entertainments in the same condition as they were hall a century so, and in the same condition as they are now. The same fairy legends and nursery s t or ies provide our dramat ic authors with the plots of pantomimes and extravaganzas as they provided the fathers of these writers before them, and as they will doubtless provide their sons after them. There is nothing new wider the sun light, except lime-light effects and political allu sions. What Covent-garden had in 1828, Drury lane has in 1866; and what Covent-g ar den has in 1866, the Lyceum had in 1844. The year that will soon close has seen a few changes in the theatrics.] world. A new theatre Las been built opened, and, what is more nonder- Int still, has been licensed in Holborn, and has started in business with a very successful drama by Mr. Boucicault. The success of Flying Send, however, has been quite exceptional, for no year has been more prolific in managers and authors failures than 1866. Dramas have been tried and found wanting; the public have actually hissed on more than one occasion, much to the annoyance of managers ; and even burlesques, supported as they are by a variety of meretricious attractions, have not always been popular or long-lived. No new actor of any importance has struck roo*.; in London during the past year—that rare ens, a new low comedian, has still to be found, awl on ly one dramatic autho r, Mr. Robertson, has made a distinct advance in his profession in 1866. Dramatic authors, how ever, if they have not made much advance in writing, have shown an increased disposition to b eco me managers of theatres, and Mr. 11. J. Byron, besides his interest in a successful little London theatre, is the lessee and conductor of the two oldest and largest theatres in Liverpool. There is no reason why a dramatic author should make a Terse manager than an actor makes, and many reasons why he should be more able to con duct theatres creditably than the Jew dis counters and publicans who so often conduct them. As a set-off to Mr. Byron's increase of managerial responsibility, we have to chro nicle the re ti re ment of a distinguished dra matic author from a share in the ma nagement of the Olympic, and the sale of the lease of that theatre to Mr. B. Webster, of the Adelphi. Mr. Webster has always had a passion for two or more theatres. At one time he coup'ed the Haymarket with the Adelphi, at another the St. James's, and at another the Princess's. The stage management of the Olympic Theatre will still rest in the able hands of Mr. Horace Wigan. The ATOP of theatrical entertainments becomes every year more and more widened, even sowshout the building of new theatres—properly called. The Crystal Palace is a playhouse at Christmas on a gigantic scale ; the Polytechnic is only a lecture room in which the dramatic adaptability col' certain scientific tricks is demonstrated be fore those tricks find their way to acknowledged theatres ; the music-halls, in spite of the ruling powers and the watchfulness of theatrical managers, are all as intensely theatrical as their stage space will allow them to be, and the ballet-girl finds he' services in active demand everywhere, and her salary almost doubled compared with what it used to be. No music-hall in town or country now opens without what is called a " divertissement" — a drama like fty . n Scud is not considered perfect without a " Jockey ballet ;" lkirnalry Ilutlye must have its country dance, and nearly every play han got an " incidental" display of this character. The chief ingredient in burlesque and pantomime is dancing, and if we do not represent ballet-spec tacles, like the Germans, which last three hours, it is from no want of faith in the popularity of ballets. The talent for arranging popular ballets seems to be as rare in England as the power of constructing popular playa, if we may judge from the fact that 111 r. Milano, like Mr. Boecicault, is employed at a dozen theatres. The record of the Christmas en tertainments of 1366 will show how iew successful authors and ballet-masters we have to provide the amusement for the holiday-making public. Obedient to time-honoured custom, the manage ment at, Old Drury has made provision for the ppecial CRYSTAL PALACE.

A feat/coolly-attired young man, w ho gave the name of R4chard William Moody, by profession a clerk, residing at 4, Ellesmere-road ,Old Ford, was charged before the Lord Mayor with wilfully breaking a sare of glass in the window of a warehouse situate No. 79 A, Watling-street. From the evidence of Police-oonetab Laiiish, 6 54 1 it d that be was on duty in the locality named at about half-past 12 o'clock on Monday night last, when be soner appeared to be quite s ober, p saw the pri roceed ing along the stinet, who and " jobbing" at all th e shutters and doors be pissed with the fernle end of his umbrella. The officer requested him to desist, but in vain, for the prisoner oontinued his freak until be came to the ware house of Messrs. Wilkes Brothers (No. 79k), when be forcibly thrust his umbrella through an aperture in one of the shutters, the effect being to break a large square of glass, the value of which the officer had been unable to ascertain, in consequence of the warehousebeing closed over the Christmas holidays. After ascertaining thet the square was not of plate glass he took the prisoner into custody, and conveyed him to the station-house, where he remained until bailed out on Tuesday morning. The officer further stated that during the preceding week the windows of several other warehouses had been smsahed, it was supposed in a similar manner. The prisoner expressed his sincere regret for what bad occurred, the fact being that he had been dining with some friends, and had partaken of more wine than he ought to have done. He was quite willing to pay for any damage he had committed. The Lord Mayor said that he doubted whether he ought ut not to send the priso ner to gaol for seven days witho the option of a fine. He would, however , teach him and young fellows like him, that they could not commit these acts with impunity. He bad been guilty of a most lawless act, and must pay a fine of fie. for the damage, and for hi his s misconduct a penalty o f 3/., or g o to prison for 21 da hard labour. The prisoner at once drew forth a W. note and paid the full penalty. A half-starved and miserably-clad female, with a child in her arms, and who gave the name of Sarah Blake was charged with attempting to commit suicide by diking poison. Police-eonstable Halfyard, 713, deposed that on Mon day afternoon , about half-past 3 o'clock, he found the prisoner sitting with her child on a door step in Great T ow er-street, apparently in g reat agony. Ileae at once phe ro cured a cab, and con ve y ed her to Guy'spital, w w she was attended to by the house surgeon, who pro nounced that she was suffering from the effects of poison. Subsequently the prisoner admitted that she had taken t wo pennyworth of sugar of lead. She had remained under medical care until that morning. The prisoner declared that she had committed the act from due distress, to which she had been driven from a protracted illness. In reply to the Lord Mayor the officer said that he h ad made inquiries, and had asce rtained that the prisonerh er was by trade a tailoress, and was a widow , living wit h father and mother in Golden-lane, WlntechaPel. She had been ill for some time, and dependent upon her parents, both of whom were far advanced in years, the father being g upwards of 7 0 years o f age, and so feeble that he ou scarcely totter down stairs to answer his (the officer's) good call. They were miserably poor, but very decent, and of character. The prisoner reiterated that this was quite true ; and that her poor parents had fed her for upwards of a month. She could not longer take the food of which they stood so much in need themselves ; and hence she bad taken the poison. If she had decent clothed; to go out in she could procure work, and support herself and child. A second-hand gown, shawl, andlionnet would fully answer her purnose. The Lord Mayor directed the officer to be supplied with 10s. out of the poor-box, to be expended for that purpose, and in discharging the poor woman told her to present her self next week, when probably something more might be done for her. DIARLBOROUGH - STR EET. Charted Toren, waiter, and Bodolph Stauffer, cook at Epitaux's Restaurant, Pall-mall, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with assaulting Wm. Hams, a cab driver, badge 10,402 ; and Toren was further charged with immultiug Augu4us Giovazielli, a cab driver, badge 14, 473 . itham Hams said that on the previous night be W brought the prisoners from the Borough to the end of the Haymarket, and on risking for his fare Stauffer gel= d him by the whiskers, and pushed him down and trampled and jumped on him, and Turen violently kicked him,been and but for aasistance coming he believed he should have ,been killed. Augustus Giovanelli said that be saw the prisoners kick ing the last witness, and bumping his head on the pave ment. He went up and told them it was scandalous to beat a man in such a way, when the prisoners let go of Hams and turned upon him (witness), Turen seizing him by the throat with one hand, and catching hold of his hair and forcing his head back with the other. Ile at last got away, and went behind a cab, so that the prisoners should not see him, when they came after him and kicked him violently, and Turen seized him by the comforter he was wearing so tightly that he was nearly choked. He lled to the bystanders to release him and at ast a female came out of Epitaux's and unfai'deneit his com forter, and be was thus able to get away from Turen. The prisoners then got him down, and again ill-used him. He believed if he had not interfered on behalf of Rams that Mims would have been killed. Mr. John Elam, of Chester-street, Kennington, and a gentleman residing in the Brompton-road, both spoke of the prisoners' conduct as king of the most violent deacrip stating it as their belief that if the bystanders had not WORSHIP-STREET . Cornelius Julian Freeland, about 35 years of age, well dressed, wearing • watch and gold chain, and descnbsd as a commercial traveller was brought up by warranboffioer Devitt on a process iss ued by Mr. C. Ellison, charged with deserting his wife and four children, and neglecting to maintain them. The authorities of Homerton parish prosecuted, and it was shown that the wife and family had been chargeable there since June last. One of the children was by a first wife, but the second appeared to have equallT cared for it. Defendant formerly kept a stationer's shop in the ICings land-road, and at that time was believed to be doing well in business, but suddenly there was a seizure for rent. The coul d nod shop were cleared. Defendant disappeared , and could not be hears of until recently, when informa tion was obtained that he was in • remote part of Hamp shire. Thither Devitt repai-esl, and after a troublesome search heard of him at Lephook, and found him in the tap room of the Anchor, where he was playing the accordion and amusing his hearers, with " Paddle your OWD Canoe." This gave the officer an introdu.otion, which he took ad vantage of by suddenly asking, " How Mrs. Freelard and the children!" The runaway, on fih bad temper he nding that he was ca ught, remarked that the lady was suc • had found it quite impossible to live with her. Defendant implored that he might not be sent what he to prises. He denied having deser ted his family. He was bad asserted--• commercial traveller, and visited Hamp shire in pusuance of that occupation. As a proof of this articles sold in his business were found on him. Devitt said this was so. He had searched im because it had been said healways carried a resolver, and expressed an intention to shoot any one who Wed to apprehend him. No such weapon, however, wa s found. D e fendant again offered to make any a rrangement with the parish that they desired, but he was sent to venom for one month with hard labour. THAMES. Dennis Lyons, a young man, barman and manager in the service of Mrs. Bridget Lyons, his mother , who is the l a ndlady of the George and VuLure public-houes,Wapping wall, Lower Shadwell, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with being drunk and disorderly, assaulting hia mother, and kicking two police constables. Mrs. Lyons, a widow, said she did not wish to Press the charge against her son, who was tipsy when he struck her, and was very sorry for what he haddone. Mr. Partridge asked the complainant where her- ion and had s t ruc k her, to which she replied, " On the head, that he wanted to take the liquor out of the bar to treat his friends. She would not allow him to do so, and pushed him out fit the bar. Re was then very violent, and struck her. She begged to withdraw the charge. Police-constable No. 347 K said he was called upon at a quarter past five o'clock on Christmas morning to take the prisoner into custody. The prisoner was drunk and threat ened to kill his mother. He requested the prisoner to leave the house and come with him. The prisoner refused to do so, and said, You are not the man to take me." The prisoner made use of many threats and bad language, t alled fqr a knife. lie seized he prisoner, and c ,o said "I'll se e whether you will take me out or not," and kicked him on the lower part of the stomach. He called a Thames police-constahle to his aid, and the prisoner struck the policeman in the lower part of his body and burt him very much. The prisorer said he was ver y sorry for whet be bad done. Re had never been placed ti. such a position before, and would take care this did not happen again. Mr. Partridge said the prisoner had conducted himself in a very disgraceful manner, and he did not wonder at his striking the policeman altar the brutal assau lt so ner to on his nether. He was almost disposed to send the pri gaol a ;thout the option of paying a fine, but as lei peni ter ce of the youth appeared to be sincere he shou nflict a fins of 40s. for the assault on the two police-constables. Mrs. Lyons paRl the fine and lioerated her son, who open: his Christmarday in a police-cell DOUBLE MURDER AND SUICIDE. Yesterday morning a shocking occurrence took place at Lowe • Edmonton. For some years past a coach smith, named William Gudgeon, and his wife, Anne, a very quiet, hard-working woman, have occupied a six roomed house opposite the Great Eastern Railway sta tion at Lower Edmonton. They had five children, the eldest of them being a girl of 14 years of age. On Cl , the mother of the children complained to her husband of being unwell, and she went to bed at seven o'clock in the. evening. At 11 o'clock at night she got up and went downstairs and joined her husband and children. They remained together for an hour, and then the whole family retired to rest. The husband state that he and his wife slept in a bed in the front top room of the house, and that in • corner of the same room a bed was made up for three of the children. When the woman was going to bed she looked very " wild," and said to her husband, " The light of the candle stares in my eyes, put it out." Ho did so, and he then fell asleep. At that tune the youngest child, a baby aged six months, was lying asleep in the father's bed. At two o'clock in the morning, Selina, a little girl aged ten years, was awakened by a quantity of blood beiag " spurted " over her face. She states that when she opened her eyes she saw her mother kneeling upon the dead body of her little brother, Timothy, who had been lying asleep alongside her sister, Sarah Anne. The little boy' a throat was cut in a fearful wanner, and blood was gushing from the wound. The mother looked much excited, and she held an open razor covered with blood in her right hand. When she saw that she woke the girl Selina she leant over towards her, and caught hold of her. The girl screamed, and a fearful struggle then ensued. Selina, for the of tecting her throat, caug ht bold of the a clothes, and held them over it. She cried out, and then wriggled out of the bed and rushed down the stain, followed by Ler mother, who continued to hold the open rarer in her band. When the girl reached the bottom of the stairs she ran into the lower front room. Her mother rushed past her and ran to the fire-place. The girl felt in the dark and found a match-box lying on the table. She struck a light, and then saw her mother by the light of the match cutting her own throat. The light then went out, and she heard her mother fall upon the floor. The girl then ran upstairs, and went into her father's room, and with great difficulty succeeded in awakening him. By his side was lying the dead body of the baby, aged six months, his throat being also cut. The wretched woman was found lying near the fire-place in the parlour befor,inentioned, her head resting on the fender, and there was an open black-handled razor lying on her breast. There was a severe gash across her throat, and an iron pail partly filled with blood lay near her heaa. Dr. O'Brien, who was called in, said that the wound WAS self-inflicted, and that it must have caused almost instantaneous death ; and this app also to be the case with the two deceased chirdre a7d n. There seems to be every probability that if the girl Selina had not fortunately aweker ed when she did, she and the rest of the family would have been sacrificed. The de ceased woman had been latterly very ill and under the care of a doctor. Some short time ago her brother-in-law died and left a widow and five children, and the fact that they were badly off and that the deceased could not do as much as she desired for them, it is said, preyed very much -'on her mind. DEATH 04 THE Noire COUNTY CORONER. —MT. Christopher Swann, coroner for the county of Notting ham, died suddenly at his residence at Sherwood, near Nottingham, on Monday, the 24th inst. Mr. Swann was in his 74th year, but has for some time past been sinking sander the pressure of infirmities, and his mental anxiety has been increased, it is supposed, by the protracted in quiry into the case of the Carlton murder, which, as county coroner, has been under his direction. CAPTURE of • FOROER. —Amongst the arrivals by the City of Paris from New York were Superintendent M'Call, of the Glasgow detective force, and Bohn Henry Greatrex, who was captured in New York on the charge of forging upon an extensive scale If. notes on the Union Bank of Scotland, in connexion with • man named Grim shaw. Greatrex was accompanied by the young woman whose description wns circulated in advertisements along with that of the prisoner. 14'0111 and • clerk of the Union Bank went to New York some time ago in search of Greatrex, and by advertising for a first-cla-si photo grapher got a eine to his whereabouts, Greatrex having been known in Glasgow as an excellent photographer. They discovered him in consequence of his putting hishead out of the window of his lodgings to look after a military band which was pawing, sod at once arrested him. In Glasgow Greatrex was also known as a street preacher and revivalist in connexion with the Plymouth brethren. He is a native of Gravesend. is 38 years of age, somewhat commanding in appearance, and most fertile in resources. His companion, with whom he eloped from Glasgow, was an assistant in a photographic studio there. °metres was sent to Glasgow yesterday. THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH IN NORFOLK.—Yester day an inquest was held at Postwick, Norfolk, on the body of Mr. Christopher Robinson, whose lifeless body was discovered on Sunday morning in a field in the village. The sad particulars o r eturned as in Tuesday's paper and the jury uas their verdicl; that the deceit:led terminated his existence while labouring under temporary insanity. The dreadful wounds which the de ceased appears to have inflicted on himself led at first to the inference that he bad been murdered.
