THE Bill introduced by Mr. Locxz on the 10th of last month to amend the laws which regulate theatres and other places of public amusement, is one of those practical measures framed to meet a difficulty in a way that is likely to excite the least amount of opposition. If it is not a measure cal culated to stir the heart of advanced freetradera like a trumpet ; it is not, on the other hand, a measure that will offend any wholesome prejudices. It owes its birth to the recent prosecution of the Music-halls by theatrical managers, to the needless legal difficulties placed in the way of performing the drama, and to the further difficulty of defining what is and what is not a stage-play according to Act of Parliament. In the recent proceedings against Mr. STRANGE and other Music-hall pro prietors for giving entertainments that are held to be infringements of the privileges granted to • few theatrical managers by an irresponsible member of the Government like the LORD CHAMBERLAIN, no decision higher than that of a police magistrate has been sought for ; but if the question were carried to • higher court (as the now famous " Alhambra case " may probably yet be carried), and a bench of judges had to arrive at a definition, it would doubtless be found that oratorios, descrip tive songs, and characteristic dances, speeches like those which Mr. Gouca delivers in Exeter-hall, and sermons like those often delivered in fashion able pulpits, are all illegal dramatic performances. It is not the cowl that makes the monk ; nor is it the building which makes the play, nor the scenery and dresses, but the imitation of any • , Ps' action by a person or persons • oonveying the meaning by sire Under the existing law, lib no celled, are regulated by the Loan °imams= in London and the ',Tuition of the Peace in the country. No theatre can be opened in the metro polis without a Loan Oanniasaars's license, nor in the country without a magistrate's limes. All dramas produced in any part of the kingdom must be examined and approved of by the Loan Cain maxim's licenser of plays before they can be legally performed, and the safety of the public is supposed to be provided for by certain rules which are laid down from time to time by the Loan and the Justices. While the drama, which even in its lowest tonne is an intellectual entertainment, lithos surrounded by all kinds of restrictions, and, as far se London is concerned, is only allowed to be doled out by a few favoured theatrical monopolists, the liberty to establish " twopenny hops,"" sing-songs,"" gaffs," and other lower forms of amusement, is practically unlimited. The dramatic license is only granted under an Ant known as the 6th and 7th Vier., while the music and dancing Hoenee is granted under an Act known as the 25th of King Gsowni U. The first Aot has been used cautiously by the magistrates, and stingily and protectively by many successive Lord Chamberlains, while the second Act has been used so liberally by the Justices in town and country, that few assembly-rooms, w alled literary institutes, muaio-halls, circuses, tea gardens, and (mantra; are pining for want of music and dancing linemen. As long as the proprietors of these latter places provide entertainments which may or may not be low and degrading, but which must not be unquestionably dramatic, they are allowed to trade in peace, with an occasional re buke on licensing day ; but the moment they show a disposition to perform any play, from Suaxs• amuse to F►TZBALL,they atoms the banded opposi tion of their the►trical rivals, and find that they want the choicer dramatic lingoes. The promoters of Mr. Local's Bill are not bound. to break their backs by fighting for a great principle, and in an age of expediency and par liamentary tactics they have doubtless acted wisely in preparing a small measure. Any Member who thinks—as many Members do—that the LORD CHAMBERLAIN is an anachronism, that he has used his arbitrary power capriciously and against the pub lic interest, that his licenser of plays is as much • nuisance as a censor of public speaking and public printing would be, can teat the feeling of the House by one or more amendments. All that Mr. LINKE will ask for in this Bill, at the second reading on the 26th instant, will be for liberty to perform a licensed play in a certified building. The Bill is an enlargement of the Act known as the 25th of King Grows IL , and if it should become law, it will give the Justices of the Peace throughout the country the power of granting dramatic licenses with the ordinary music and dancing license. Those who prefer a superfine court dramatic license in London may still go to the LORD CHAMBERLAIN for it if they choose, but those who are content with a good strong serviceable dramatic license may get one on application to the licensing magi strates. The licensing system is not attacked in any way by this Bill, and the promoters have pro bably acted wisely in not tilting at • system which has been regarded with almost superstitious awe by the strongest Governments. We have only a draft of the Bill before us at present—a conden ration of which we give in another column—and we shall therefore reserve further discussion of its merits until the eve of the second reading. Tne cautions reply which Government returned the other day to a question intended to elicit a pledge against the Arctic expedition now under discussion in scientific and naval circles,will be ap- proved by all who can view the subject free from the prejudice of dogmatic ignorance. It will enable those who are best qualified to guide our deter mination to continue their inquiries and dabbers- tions without being trammelled by being placed at the outset in a position of antagonism to the au thorities. It is satisfactory also to find that Government is so far conscious of the value of the proposed exploration that it does not meet its ad vocates with the preliminary cui bona demand, nor suggest to them the infinitely higher practical im portance of ascertaining the bearings and sound ings of a coral reef in the Chinese seas. The scientific interest of the exploration is, indeed, so thoroughly recognised by all competent persons that it forms no element of the discussion which is now proceeding. And its critics may be properly reminded that scientific interest is not synonymous with the motives of childish curiosity. The laws of nature, which are the subjects of scientific re search, have all a practical bearing on the comforts and conveniences of life. No fact is isolated, and no law of nature deduced from the observation of facts has failed to be of use, in some shape or other, to mankind. It is possible, however, that the mere circumstance of the constant admission, by all scientific authorities, of the intrinsic value of the information a now Polar expedition would yield, may aid its opponents in getting up the cry that it would be productive of no benefit commen surate with its perils. So we shall ask our readers to follow us for a little, while we take the illustration that is most interesting to us all just at present, and point out how it may chance that the explanation of the present ex traordinary season, and a reasonable anticipa tion of what sort of weather our farmers and gar deners may in consequence expect during the coming summer and in future years, are quite possibly some of the secret, which are now locked in the icy caverns of the North, and which the bold adventurers who penetrate to them may bring home for our wonder and profit. At the very root of the question whether we can reach the North Pole at all lies the unknown fact whether the sea in that region is frozen or open. Captain &MUSD OSBORN believes it to be frozen, and therefore accessible by sledges ; others believe it to ha open, and therefore penetrable by ships. Under the former conviction the proposed line is by the west coast of Greenland, as far as naviga tion extends, and thence over ice to the Pole. I I Bet the holders of the latter idea would rather push to Spitzbergen, which is always accessible in summer, and thence trust to find an opening through the fringe of ice to admit them to the open sea which they think flows round the Polo. And both parties have strong ar guments by which they support their theories. A wide unfrozen sea has often, by the farthest ex plorers, been observed aa far as the eye could reach to the north, while the ice had closed in on the south. We shall offer no opinion on the ques tion. Butthe.proposed expedition would probably, whether or not it reached the Pole, settle for us this one point, whether there is ice or water around it. Whether the sledges failed because of water, or the ships because of ice, we should learn whether there was water or ice. And the infor mation would be of incalculable value to na, what ever might be the fact ; for it would tell us whither flows that wonderful stream of warm water which, inning from the Gulf of Mexico, is known as the Gulf Stream, which brings to our shores some per. ksitt , fogs, our @oft ISMS ; which, in fact, Is the great cause and direc tor of our weather. We know that this vast =son strewn, in its pussy acmes the Atlantic, splits in two off Newfoundland ; that while ow por tion comes to our islands, and coasts along Nor way, soother fork descends below the surface and pews up Davis Straits, even at the moment when a counter current of cold water is bearing huge ice floes on the audios sonshvrards. But we do not know where these warm currents again unite, we do not know where they spend their remaining temperature ; we do not know whether they are uniform or variable in their relative proportions ; and we cannot know' this until we learn whether in the Arctic regions there is, as some think, • vast sea of comparatively warm water, fed by the streams that pass to it be meth the surrounding ice, or whether there is only an unbroken expanse of solid ice, through which there is no image, and beneath which there is no higher temperature than at the surface. Now, there is every meson to expect that the full knowledge of the varying or uniform course and volume of the Gulf Stream,which Arctic explo• rations would furnish, would be a very important guide in foreseeing our probable weather, not indeed from day to day, but, what would be more service able to the farmer, from year to year. For we do know that a periodic change in the position of the Gulf Stream probably produces the sole periodic change in our weather on which we can with some confidence depend. This warm current, which in winter bathes our shores, is in summer and autumn at some distance from them, in the mid Atlantic, and is replaced by a cold back current flowing down the North Sea. The alteration room mences in March ; therefore, in April and early I May we have a body of warm water at some dia tans westward, causing an upward draught in the air, which is fed from the European continent, not yet sufficiently warmed by the spring sunshine ; and this is at least • proba ble explanation of our spring Ma winds. They cease as soon as the sun has gained power enough to warm the earth more than the water, exactly as in tropical countries there is • night breeze blowing off the land, followed by a day breeze blowing off the sea. And if this is the cause, it follows that an earlier removal of the Gulf Stream westward would produce an earlier and even steadier course of easterly and northerly winds, such as, in fact, we have been suffering from this spring. But such a cause must itself hare some cause. Is it that the Stream is warmer, or is it that a larger portion than usual is now peeing up Baffin's Bay f The former inquiry can be partly answered from observations on the tem perature of the sea, such as the Meteorological Society in Scotland carries out, and from which already some remarkable results may be deduced. But the latter inquiry cannot be answered till we know the ultimate course of the Gulf Stream, which only Aretio exploration can tell us ; and if we knew this, we should lay a solid foundation for our meteorologists to tell us in their turn what sort of coming season we have any year in prospect as soon as we perceive the symptoms that would inform them of the conditions, for that season, of the great weather breeder on our coasts—the perennial Mexican current. In this very practical and personal direction, then, there is found an instance of the invaluable knowledge the Polar expedition would yield. And in almost every other branch of science that con duces to human safety and instruction there would be something of like importance ascertained• It is well that the public should keep this fact steadily in view while it watches the discussions on the best means to attain the end. Because we have given up the notion of the North-west pas sage, and do not expect that the North Pole is block of solid gold that we can carry back in our ships or sledges, we are not to suppose that all the science and learning in England is gone mad when it still is earnestly bent on winning its way to that unknown storehouse of Nature's sezrets.

IT LNTELLIGIEN Wring Dian e IN RUM& An account, dated April 5, received from hes . Majesty's Ambassador at St. Petersburg, says : "The fever is contagious, and is called in French *errs d rechats, in German dem recurvireek Fieber, and 'the relapsing or famine fever' in English. It is also styled 'remittent fever,' or 'typhus re currens,' or bilious typhoid fever,' or ' synocha,' or miliary fever,' or typhinia.' It was unknown in Russia until eight months ago, when Professor Botkin called attention to it as a fever he had never seen, though foreign physicians had described it. There is much ordinary typhus in Bt. Petersburg. The official journal states that the typhus and the typhoid fever and the febris recurrens' prevailing in St. Petersburg have now slightly diminished. "Lord Napier reports from Berlin, April 6, that an unknown disorder has appeared along the valley of the Vistula, and especially at Elbing. The Prussian government is not aware that it came from St. Petersburg." The Medical Gazette of Bt. Petersburg gives an account of the epidemic which is committing such ravages in that oity,and which is called "revenants" It was during last autumn that the disease broke out simultaneously in the north-east and south-west of the Russian empire. M. Gworling, the govern ment doctor at Perm, announced that lie had seen forty cases of this disease, which commences with cold and shivering, followed by great heat without perspiration, accompanied by cholic, headache, delirium, general debility, and sometimes with a low of blood from the nose. The disease lasts from five to six days, after which the invalid recovers his appetite, falls into a sound sleep, and the fever quits him. The fever returns after a short interval, but again ceases, and the doctor has observed this to have happened three or four times. Quinine taken in large doses cures the fever, and removes delirium, but does not pro- duce decisive effects, nor is it sufficient to arrest the progress of the disease. The doctor adds that he has seen more than SOO persons attacked with the disease in the course of the years 1857 and 1858 in America, where it raged with such violence that it was mistaken for the yellow fever. ITALY. NEAPOLITAN CORRESPONDENCE. Account^ from Naples lately spoke of the delivery to the authorities of important papers connected with the Bourbon rule. A letter from Rome in the Aoenir National gives the following account of the matter : Garibaldi was approaching Naples, and much numainess was felt as to whom could be entrusted the morel archives of the Bourbon polio*, which it was desired should 'wither be destroyed nor suffered to fall into the hands of the enemy. After mature deliberation these papers were handed to M. Mire, • superior functionary in the ministry of police. That person accepted them, sad kept his wont so well that it is not known to this hour in what way the decussate disappeared, nor what had become of than. Retained in his post by the government of Victor Emmanuel up to 1862, he was at that period amused of being unearned in a Bourbon oonspi. racy. He fled from Naples, went to Rome, and was received at the Farness Palace as • faithful and devoted subject. Subsequently, getting mixed up in the intrigues which divided that court during its sails, and becoming the ob ject of calumnies and insults for which he sought redress from the tribunals, he failed to find in Francois IL the sup port which he looked for. It was then that he entered upon secret negotiations with the Italian authorities, that he spoke of Important papers which bed been put into his hands, end offered to give them up. On what renditions ? No one can yet my. It is only known that between the 15th and the 20th of March he obtained an assaranos that he might return to Naples without beteg at all uneasy as to what had pared. He left Rome on the 22nd, but, before reaching Naples, stopped at • place when he had buried tle documents, and, repo seeing himself of them, handed them on the 24th into the Quest is office at Naples. It is mid that nearly all of them have notes in the handwriting of Ferdinand 11. and Francois 11., and possess high political end historical importimes. They coacern an thane who tram 1854 to 1860 had valerian with the government, either as musses or victims. (arum's nuaiums.) FRANCE. THE LATE MR. COBDEN. PARIS, Amu, 6.

CORER MOM FARM cros w. own cooffrescaml PAEIB, WZDNIIIIDAT The Monikur du Bair emitains a note timidly contradicting the assertions of the "foreign prom" (always, according to official authority here, the originator of all false news) and of "pretended friends of the papacy" that the Pope thinks of leaving Rome before or immediately after the de parture of the French troops, pursuant to the con vention of Sept. 15. But the official journal, while carping at the inaccurate way in which the "senti ments of the Holy Father" are described in other quarters, cannot venture to go farther than to say that "there is nothing in the attitude of the court of Rome to justify the sup position that it is not disposed to profit by the ad vantages offered to it by the arrangements between France and Italy." This assertion you will see is negative merely. The Moidteur cannot say affir matively that it is disposed to profit by them. The only positive averment it ventures upon is that the court of Rome is "seriously thinking of aug menting its gendarmerie." In the Corps Lsglslatif the ultraoonservative and ultramontanbit amendment, proposing under the specious name of the droit de tester (the right of making a will) the abolition of the equal dis tribution of property, which is coniddered in France as a great conquest of 'B9, and that in order to re store entailed estates and increase the influence of priests over testators, was negatived, only 46 out of the 52 deputies who signed the amendment voting for it ultimately. A vulgar error, almost universally accepted in Frame, was corrected yesterday by a very import ant judicial decision. It is generally supposed that any person finding money or an article of value in the streets is bound by law to take it to the nearest police-offioe, and that if at the end of a year and a day no claimant appears the property vests in the finder. Not a day passes without many deposit& being made at various police-offices in Paris pursuant to this supposed law. In pursuance of this general understanding a journeyman gun smith, named RapEe, who, in August, 1883, picked up bank notes to the value of 800 fr. in the Lyons Railway station, deposited them at the prefecture of police. The "year and a day," having expired without the true owner hav ing made a claim, he applied for the restitution of the money to himself. This was refused upon two grounds. First, it was alleged that he had no in terest whatever, the State being the proprietor of all unclaimed, lost, or stolen property. And next he was told that at any rate the question of his title could not arise till the expiration of three years from the finding, because Art. 2,279 of the Code fixed three years as the time within which lost or stolen goods could be claimed. Thereupon Rape brought an action against the prefect of police for the 800 fr., and the civil tribunal has pronounced a decree in the plaintiff's favour. The decree states that, although the usage relied on by the prefect of police formerly existed, the present code knows of nothing of the kind. It is true that the real owner may claim his property at any time within three years, and the finder is liable to a criminal prosecution if he wilfully conceals or with holds it ; but there is no law to compel him to deposit the property found at any police-office, or to justify the police in keeping it longer than the finder chooses. It remains to be seen, whether, notwithstanding the judgment of a civil court, the criminal tribunals will not continue to hold the non-deposit of articles found to be evidence of a fraudulent intention to appropriate them.
