BARNSTAPLE ELECTION. BARNSTAPLE, 8•21311:4T. The nomination of a candidate to nerve in parlia ment fur this borough took place to-day. The vacancy, it will be remembered, was caused by the ejection of Mr. Laurie, who was found by a parliamentary committee to have illegally obtained his seat. Up to the day of nomination there were two candidates In the field—Mr. The, the architect, who was the means of ousting Mr. Laurie, and still further Impedes the dis graceful character of this bolongb, which it hes earned by reason of the bribery and corrupt doings of the toriss ; and Mr. George Stsekley Buck, son of Mr. L. W. Buck, M.P. for North Devon. This gentleman was onos announced u a candidate for the northern division of the county, with the view of ejecting Sir T. D. kelead, who had just then avowed free treat principles. He was thee a protectionist; shortly afterwards he opposed Mr. Divett at E , and then professed himself a free trader. He was, however, ignominiously defeated; and there being now a good chance of a seat for Barnstaple, the hon. gentleman came forward on coneermtive and purity principles. The litter was not at all relished by the freemen, who have been in the habit of receiving 61 for their votes; but, being mash enraged with Mr. Tite, by reason of his effort' to purify the borough sad de prive them of this pecuniary_oleasure, they determined to support the tory candidate. Having canvassed the borough, Mr. The found there was no chance of his election, and on the musing of nomination he issued an address, stating that he we. satisfied that no man who would not avail him• self of corrupt inflame* could in say contested election succeed in obtaining a seat. Mr. Tits left the town by the ten o'clock train, and was accompanied to the station by a large body of the liberal electors, who cheered the hon. gentleman lustily on hi. d raters. At twelve o'clock the nomination proceedings com menced, the Mayor (Mr. J. HARRIS) presided. The usual forinida having been gone through Mr. F. Marring proposed Mr. Beck as a fit and proper person to represent the borough. Dr. BIONILL seconded the nomination ; and being unopposed, Mr. Buck was de sisted duly elected. In thanking his supporters for the honour they bad done his, Mr. Dom said he would see that the investigation tato the mismanagement of the war should be pursued with impartial and unceasing vigour. He was opposed to any pant to Marnooth, but did not uphold catholic disabilities. A vote of thanks to the mayor concluded the business.

On Saturday evening a oomedietta was produced for the first time at this theatre, under the title of TM Secret Apia. For once, a drama of this kind we. not " from the French," bat has been very neatly adapted "from the German," by Mr. Stirliag Coy... The plot, though involving a number of oomplications and perplexi ties to the dramstie person', was briefly this. The Grand I Duke of a mythical German state is entirely coder the so lemnest et his mother, who is elkettively sided in - supposing attain fitful good. intentions _ ow the part of the Sovereign towards his subject', by Mr. Bookstons, as Prime Minister, with a red ribbon, and Mr. Compton, as Lord Chamberlain, with a blue one. The Died* of the Grand Duchene, who is devotedly attached to the youthful Duke, aid is anxious that hie good qualities ehould have fair play, seeks to rouse him out of his thraldom, with that success which • pretty and clever woman w ith whom he is in love may be suppose to so ; and the climes of his determination is attained by the lady's acquaintiog him with the fact that arrangements are in pro gress to many him, whether he will or no, to a Princess of Brunswick. Deli is to be gained by the scheme of creedal; a decidedly invisible " Secret Agree" whom advice the Doke implicitly follows ; and, by the aid of a valet and waiting-maid, the Grand Duke and kis Mmeress eentrive to meat* the weal* Court in • mom amusing . The efforts of the Primo Minister and the Chamberlain to discover the Secret Agent are incessant, but invariably foiled, measures being taken to induce the one to believe that the agent is • man,. and the other that it is a woman. The Duchess is duly included in the decep tion, when her niece, to avoid a marriage with a foppish nephew of the Prime Minister, Informs her with equivocal truth that she is in love with toe Secret Agent. The first act ends with its being supposed that the Prime Miaister is mad, because he is seen running without a hat across the Perk, hie object being to endeavour to see the Secret Agent, whom he has been mystified iuto believing is to be head at • certain hour, feeding the ducks in • certain fist In the second act a masked ball is made available for the purpose of finding_ out the Secret Agent. Mutually de ceived, the Prime Minister assumes the dress of • Spanish lady, and the Chamberlain that of Mephistophiles, and by one of the ordinary stage processes they were made to meet, and each to believe that the ether is the Secret Agent, and they plot and counter-plot to have each other arrested. The affair, which by this time was getting rather wire drawn, is brought to a close by the Duchess resigning bee power end the Grand Duke declaring that he has dismissed his S ecret Agent, only following his last advice by rekr gating the peeeant ministers to the enjoyment of digniSei sinecures, when they can do no mischief. There was not much positive novelty in the situations; and the dialogue, except here and therein the first act, had no pretensions to wit or humour; while the idea of the plot, in Welt good, was at last reduced to something very like tenuity. The piece was too long ; the superstructure was rather to) much for the basis. Nor was there very much room for anything remarkable in the acting; no great scope being afforded for the specialities of the chief come dians. Of course But:ketone, dressed in imitation, pure Ltd simple, of Senora Peres Nene, was ludicrous its the extreme, though hardly more comical looking than in the court suit of tie minister •, and Compton's Mephistophiles was admi rable fooling. The scenery and getting up were very good; and as it was evident that the players like their parts, the piece mat with the approval of • very full house. ADELPHI. A new piece, under the somewhat stimulant title of " tell your Wife," was prodseed here on Saturday. It was IT avowedly written at the acting specialties of Mr. Keeley 50 and Mr. Leigh Murray, who, indeed, may be said to divide l a the whole conduct of the piece between themselves. Paul (Mr. L. Marray), a sprightly spark, is going to be married ; L i in a few days to the daughter of Dr. Bile (Mr. Keeley) ; u but prior to his assumption of a conjugal conscience, he makes a filial excursion into the beau pays des plaisirs with e t . a pretty milliner and orders " dinner for two," at the Rail- $0 way Hotel. Whilst engaged in giving his order at one ti end of the table, his prospective father-in-law, who 80 has arrived by the same train, and has oa hand his own petit trouble as caws, is similarly occu- 61. pied at the other end. After recognition and the et. mutual expression of surprise at the canoe that could have lo thus brought them together in so unusual a plate, Paul IL awe the doctor into an omnibus, end congratulates himself r. hexescape from *discovery. The doctor, however, quits a the "'bus "is the next street, and returns to the hotel, 10 where a second scene of ordering dinner, recognition, and hi renewed surprise is re enacted. They now agree to dine le together in " the passage " which divides rooms No. 8 01 and 9, where the respective fair ones of the lovers are stowed away. The ladies, like the gods of Homer, se now stimulated by the savour of viands, become le clamorous for an ezeat, but are forcibly kept in 10 by the stronger males. Of course the suspicions excited 10 on both sides by so violent a scene, must end in a discovery, and consequently the doctor, during the temporary absence of Paul, writes on the panel of door No. 8, ' You shall not have my daughter ;" to which Paul replies by the counter- et. 1 notice, ' I'll tell your wife." At length the ladies come IL forth, sad being no others than the real wife and iftilllo. rota in disguise, the two gentlemen have to make the best 6 excuse they can to their indignant fair ones. Stich is the ei scaffolding of the piece, which is put up in the most midis- 10 liaised massif before the audience and the persona dra. et. mates themselves. Now, although the public do not look et * (or strict probability in a farce, and are satisfied if they are well amused, still some respect for it is one of the means of le amusement, and the open violati..n of the most obvious rule SO of dramatic art cannot take place with impunity. We St. doubt whether say expenditure of sprightliness in dialogue 5 . could have veneered such clumsy materials, but in the ab sena*, is additioo, of anything like a brodarie of wit, the 16. piece naturally sunk into its grave in the midst of unmis takeable alga of disapproval. et. 124 ittueratna TarxratcaLa.-0a Saturday, the Slat et. instant, an amateur performance , the actors in which will : l c be all memben of two literary clubs, will take place at the s Olympic Theatre, and the proceeds of the entertainment to will be devoted to the benefit of the family of one of the II most talented and prolific writers of the day, who is, we IL trust temporarily only, incapacitated by illness from mental , exertion. The performance will consist of Mr. Shirley Brooks' comedian., "Any thing for a Change," Mr. Bunn's is farce of "My Neighbour's Wife," and an attempt hitherto at nonsked by amateurs—a pantomime. Several of the parts IL will be filled by literary men. The rehearsals are most 12 . active, and from all we can glean, the performance promises r to be the most successful yet attempted by amateurs. Every 1 2 4 east in the house, though advanced prices are charged, his to long since been engaged, and from a list of the placeholders which we have seen, the audience would appear to be as 12 4 aristocratic as it will be numerous.— Weekly Chronicle. at., IRELAND. e— DUBLIN, Masan 10. The The lenity shown by Lord St. Germans' govern- t ; ment to Mr. John Carden, of abduction and chloro- so form notoriety, is thus referred to in a local journal, 1 2 .5 l the Tipperary Vindicator: Hear this all ye'poor wretches wbo pine in misery within et the gloomy walls of Clonmel cull Mr. Carden is wealthy. 9 He committed an atrocious educe, not suddenly, but with r 7, deliberate premeditation. He was sentenced to a partial 6, punishment ; but Sir Philip Crampton bar given his yc opinion that further confinement would be injurious to his se Insustitution, and forhwith Lord St Germane, by whom M advised we know no t t, admits Mr. John Carden to bail and on the understanding that he loaves Ireland for a few months, opens the gates of the gaol and lets him free ! We can have no personal feeling in the matter ; but we say this is a trifling with justice—a toying with crime—a " heavy blow and a great discouragement" to the administration of 30 the law, and an example which will tell fearfully throughout Bt. Tipperary on every mind which has not ceased to think aright ; because it tends to show there is one law for the rich and another for the poor in Ireland. CRYSTAL PALACE.—FIVE SHILLING DAY.

Pickfoed and Co.'s, the well-known ostensive car riers, under the following circumstances:—lt has been for some time motorway for the firm to send a porter from their establishment in Wood-street. Cheapside, to the Hay don square station of the London and North Western Roll way with the money required to pay their men, and on this occasion a man named GIMPS Smith was entrusted with cash amounting to 16.51. for that purpose, with which it is I supposed he immediately absconded, as be did sot make his appearance at the station at the appointed time, and hunt since been heard of. • TFIOSIAB MUNROE, who was convicted at the late assizes for the county of Cumberland, of murdering the overseer of a mine in which be was employed, is to be ens- Med to-morrow (Tuesday), the Home Secretary of State having decided that the law must take its course.

The English stock market to-day showed heavi ness, the prevalent disposition on the part of specu lators being evidently to sell at present prices, in view of the uncertainty of politics. Prices closed to per cent. lower than yesterday; but at one period of the day the reduction was as much as per cent. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Bentes closed ' slightly lower than yesterday, owing to money sales; bat the Four-and-a-Half per Cents. were quoted 1 per cent. higher. At Vienna the bourse is experiencing a gradual reaction from the buoyancy which was induced by the late Czar's death. The exchange on London has advanced to 12.20, and the premium on the precious metals again shows an up ward tendency. At Frankfort, Austrian stock has 1 per cent. since Wednesday afternoon. Consols for the 11th April ranged between 921 and 93, and stood at 3 o'clock at 921 exactly. Sub sequently there were sellers at this fraction. For money the 3 o'clock quotation was 921. The trans fer books of many government stocks being now shot for the April dividends, the official business report is limited to the following, viz.:—lltteß per Ceatigen sole, for money. 921, 1 1,1, 1,1: ditto, for account, 11th April, 921, 93, 921, 921; Bank Stock, for ac wont, 2161. The price of Exchequer Bills remains quoted 6s. to 9s. prem. Little business was done in foreign stocks. Turkish was more offered, and marked as low as 781, but at the close the price had recovered to 79 to 1. Other descriptions presented little variation. The imports of the precious metals this week have been extraordinarily heavy, owing to a simultaneous influx from several quarters. Our list includes the undermentioned sums, viz.:-1,445,000 dole., by the Atlantic, from New York ; 1,665,539 dols., chiefly in silver, by the Atrato, from the West ndies and Mexico, &c. ; 57,000 ounces of gold, by the Admiral, from Port Phillip; and one box of sovereigns, by the Emperor, from Algoa Bay. Intelligence was also reamed to-day of the arrival of the Arabian from Port Phillip, whence she sailed on the 18th Decem ber, with 58,000 ounces of gold. The total value of these imports cannot be less than 1,082,0001., chiefly in gold. On the other hand, the shipments have been small. The custom-house statement of the exports of the' precious metals during the week includes only 600 ounces of silver coin to Boulogne, and 60 ounces of gold bare to the same pit. The other shipments re ported to us comprise 43,4311., by the Madrid, for Lisbon, Cadiz, and Oporto; and 12,800!., nearly all in English silver, by the Avon, for the Brazils. The ascertained shipments of the week are thus raised to only about 57,0001. The quantities of gold taken in private hands to the continent are under stood to have been also small. At Paris yesterday (Friday) the exchange on London was quoted 25.07 f to 25.10, short; at Am sterdam, 11.774, short; and at Hamburg, 13.4 f, short. _ _ - . A number of Admiralty notices were published to dayysepecting the hire of vessels for the transport service. On the 13th inst. tenders will be received for the hire of clipper vessels of about 500 or 600 tons each, for the immediate conveyance of stores to the Crimea ; on the 14th inst., for the hire of a good cop pored vessel, of about 350 tons, to be employed as a regular transport for two months certain • on the 15th inst., for the conveyance of shout 1,00 0 barrels of powder from Antwerp to Putfleet ; and on the 14th instant, for the conveyance from the Thames to Heligoland of 320 tons of " heavy " Ordnance stores (consisting of noon bedsteads), and of 300 tons of " light " Ordnance stores (barrack furniture). This barrack accommodation is probably destined for the recruits of the British Foreign Legion. The Ad miralty further announce that they are now ready to treat for the hire of steamers of 500 tons and up wards, for the conveyance of troops, horses, and stores to Malta and the East. The total number of steamers taken up by govera ment, up to the present time, for the transport ser vice is 89, and of sailing vessels 112 ; but of the latter 15 were lost, nearly all during the late gale in the Black Sea, exclusive of the steamer Prince. Annexed is a more complete statement of the railway calls falling due this month. The total calls for the first quarter of 1855 are raised to 4,752,323/., against 3,607,2861. in the same quarter of last year, and 2,590,5534 in 1853 : Amount per snare. Due Already cu.

The quantity of English wheat on sale from Essex and Kent this morning was small, .nd sales were readily effected at 2.. and 4e. advance upon the rates of last Monday. Foreign wheat likewise recovered the decline then noted. Country flour was le. to 21. per sack dearer. Barley was in fair request at late rater. Oats recovered the depression quoted in the middle of the week; and, in (set, last Monday's rates were in some stows exceeded. Beans and peas rather dearer.
