The Great United States Circus re-opens in London (after its provincial tour), not merely in its entirety, not simply as it first attracted audiences "whose name was legion," but with new stars added to the firmament of its glory, and with fresh flowers culled from the gardens of talent to adorn the bouquet of its brightness ; not that its spring flowers have lost their beauty, nor that its well-known stars have paled in their respective constellations, but " Excelsior " is the motto of the proprietors, and the Alhambra Palace, the Gem Am phitheatre of the World, having undergone a thorough reno . - vation and re-decoration, will open on Monday, November 8, at 2 o'clock, p.m., with an array of talent which the Eques trian world is defied to equal. It shall be the constant study of the Management to place before their patrons nothing but what is without reproach and unapproachable,—so that the most intellectual and refined may come with the full assur ance that in the refreshing originality of the animated varie ties given in this establishment, nothing will be allowed that shall offend the most fastidious, or tint the cheek of modesty.

The above Company comprises Sixty of the Best Performers ever assembled together, all of whom will appear at the sane time in a Grand Trial of Skill, entitled The " HERCU LANEUM," never before represented in England. The stud of Cream and Spotted Steeds is large and fault less.

It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled many a brain to explain bow this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a " perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. lie then bought some of Thorley's food ; and he says the effect was wonderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri cultural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, 47,e., the animals which carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor ley's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street, London, for a pamphlet which is sent post-free.

BY SAMUEL LAWERT, M.D., _ 37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON, Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Hono• rary Member of the London Hospital Medical, Society, Li centiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Manhood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en titled. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that there i s sca rcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply s cure.

Wedded to this woman oft; undaunted mettle," Macbeth has yet to be surrounded by appropriate circumstances to stamp his career with its distinguishing mark. Neither his crimes nor his motives belong to a cultivated state of society; we must suppose him placed amil a nation of rugged men, and in a region where supernatnral inflursi ces are within the compass of ordinal) , belief. While, as an actor Mr. Charles Kean makes the character of Macbeth a vehicle for the grandest display of histrionic geniu s ; as a manager he takes care that the scenery and costumes shall perfectly illustrate the time and place of alt:on,: and that all the witchery which the modem improxemep.ts in deco rative art can supply, shall be employed to give the old tale of crime its supernatural clothing. We walk through dark scantily-arnished halls, or ers: - . our eyes over barren un cultivated grounds. Here spectres might roam—here witches might hold their unhallowed revels. The choruses are really grand, and, it may be observed, are so admirably managed that the masses appeal to the eye ai the music addresses the ear. Whatever may be said of the extreme purists, there is no doubt that Locke's compo sition greatly relieves the tragic actor of the play, while it is in perfect harmony with Elul' ncidents. In the hands, too, of a manager like Mr. Charles Kean, the musical intervals become so many chw-ateristic " episodes" in the sense of the wo-d that has become prevalent since the revival of Richard 11. "Macbeth" takes rank among the greatest efforts of Shakespeare's genius, and the public may congratulate themselves that this marvellous tragedy is now presented with' an the appliances that decorative art can achieve, guided by the most perfect taste and knowledge, and supported in its representation by the two finest artists of the present age—Mr. and Mrs.. Charles Kean. , LYCEUM—JTILXEN'S CONCERTS. Jullien's Concerts d'adieu commenced here last evening with every prospect of immense success. The house has been tastefully fitted up for the occasion, and the band, as usual, is composed of sixty first-rate artistes. On the entry of the maestro he was very cordially received. The house was full, and the programme consisted of selections from the best and greatest masters. A very, important feature in the entertainment was the first appearance , in England of M. Wieniawsld, ' a violinist of extraordinary ability, who, it appears, enjoys already, though still apparently very young, a great reputation on the Continent. M. Wieniawski played Mendelssohn's concerto and Paganini's variations on the " Carnival of Venice," and in both pieces displayed such a command over the resources of his instru ment and so much musical sentiment -as to justify 'us in placing him in the first rank of living violinists. _ Miss L. Vinning gave Verdi's " Tacea la [nate " so charmingly as to gain an encore. She responded by singing ." Where the Bee Sucks," with equal grace; it was quite refreshing to hear that lovely air aster the paltry composition which preceded it. The scenes of senseless uproar which have unhappily disgraced M. Jullien's " first night" for some years past, were not wanting on the present occasion. M. Jullien niade several long speeches to no purpose. A strong body of determined policemen would have been the shortest and most expeditious way to restore order. THE BALLOT. . - A 13/LL TO CAUSE THE VOTES. OF PARLIAMENTARY ELECTORS TO BE TAKEN BY WAY OF BALLOT . Whereas the freedom of elections for members to serve for the Commons in Parliament is of the ut rAost consequence to the preservation of the rights and liberties of the people. And whereas com plaints are made that notwithstanding the laws now in force such elections are often procured or effected by bribery, treating, intimidation, undue influence,. and other corrupt and dishonourable means, •to the great scandal of the kingdom and destructive (if permitted) of the independent constitution of Par liament itself. For the remedy therefore of so great' an evil, and to the end that all election's of members to serve in the Commons House of Par liament may hereafter be freely and indifferently made, be it enacted by the Queen's most excellent Majesty by and with the advice and consent of the Lords spiritual and teriaporal and Commons in this present Parliament assembled, and by the autho rity of the same, as follows 1. From and after the, passing of this act. At any election for members to serve in Parliament the returning officer shall, if a poll be demanded, cause as many booths to be erected, or rooms to be hired or otherwise obtained, at each polling place as are by law required, and the same shall be so divided and arranged as to the returning,officer shall seem best adapted for carrying out the provisions of this act, but so that at each booth or room there shall be one or Endre inner rooms' and compartments as hereinafter enacted ; and the returning officer shall before the day fixed for the polling, if a poll be de manded, cause to be furnished for the use of each such booth or room a sufficient number of copies of the register of electors for the borough, city, or county for which such election shall take place, and shall also, provide for the use of each such booth or room a ballot-box with a secure lock, and with an aperture through which the ballot papers may be placed in such ballot-box. 2.

Each candidate shall appoint one or more persons, not exceeding three for each booth, to be scrutineers on his behalf at such election, and the returning officer and each deputy returning officer and scrutineer shall prior to • the commencement of the poll make the following declaration : " I, A.B. the returning officer (or a deputy re turning officer, or scrutineer) appointed by C.D. a candidate at the election of a member (or members) to serve in Parliament for the borough, city, or county of do declare that I will faithfully assist in the said election, that I will not in any manner interfere with any elector when filling up his ballot paper, or attempt to ascertain the name or names of the candidate or candidates for whom any elector at such election shall record his •vote, and in case I shall become acquainted with the name or names of the candidate or candidates for whom any elector shall record his vote, then that I will not disclose to any person whomsoever the fad so coming to my knowledge." And any returning officer, deputy returning officer or scrutineer doing any act in contravention of such declaration shall deemed guilty of a misdemeanor. 4. The Returning Officer immediately after a poll is demanded shall cause to be printed a num ber of ballot papers sufficient for the number of electors on the register of persons entitled to vote at such election, and such papers shall be of uniform size and colour and in the form pre scribed in the schedule to this act, and the names of all the candidates on whose behalf a poll shall be demanded at such election shall be printed in alpha betical order thereon, and the returning officer, prior to the commencement of the poll, shall authen ticate each such paper by marking the same on the back with a stamp to be provided by such returning officer. 5. On or before the day of polling the returning officer shall deliver to each deputy returning officer a number of the said papers so authenticated by him as required by this act, sufficient for the num ber of electors entitled to vote at the polling place at which' such deputy is to preside, and retain a number of such papers sufficient for the number of electors entitled to vote at the polling booth at which he shall himself preside. 6. The returning officer shall cause the names of all the candidates on whose behalf a poll shall be demanded to be painted or printed on placards, one or more of which placards shall be placed in each booth or room and also in some conspicuous position on the outside of each booth or room. 7. At every booth or other place for taking the poll at an election the returning officer shall pro vide one or more inner rooms, each containing as many separate apartments, for the purpose of en abling the electors privately to mark their papers as the said returning officer shall think necessary, in which inner room and compartments no person other than the electors actually voting shall be en titled to be or remain. Provided always that it shall be lawful for th e re t urn i ng officer or deputy returning officer to permit any constable or other officer to enter such inner room or compartments for the purpose of removing therefrom any person or persons who may obstruct the voting or wilfully violate any of the provisions of this act, and any person improperly going into or remaining in the said inner room or compartments shall be guilty of a misdemeanour. 8. The returning officer shall on or before the day appointed for taking the poll at any election deliver to his deputy appointed for each polling booth such a box as herein before referred to, which box shall be when delivered to such deputy return ing officer locked and under the seal of the return ing officer, and the returning officer shall retain a box so locked and sealed as aforesaid for the polling place where he himself shall preside, and each deputy returning officer shall during the said poll keep the said boxes locked and sealed, and the key of each such box shall be kept during the poll by the person entitled to the custody of the said box, and during the taking of the poll each such box shall stand on the table in the polling booth or room in the presence of the returning officer or his deputy and of the said scrutineers,—Provided each candi date or any scrutineer on his behalf may require to see that such boxes are empty prior to their being locked and scaled as aforesaid. 9. Each elector having first according to law satisfied the returning officer or his deputy that he is entitled to vote, and having also signed his name or placed his mark opposite to his name upon a copy of the register of persons entitled to vote at such election shall receive from the returning officer or his deputy a paper in the form prescribed in the said schedule, and such elector shall then immediately take such ballot paper into a com partment of the inner room required by this act to be provided in each polling booth for such purpose, and shall there without delay strike through the name or names of the candidate or candidates for whom he does not intend to vote, but so that if there be only one member to be returned for such county, city or borough he only leave one name not struck out, and if there be more than one member to be returned for such county, city or borough he does not leave the names of more candidates not struck out than there are members to be returned for such county, city, or borough, otherwise such paper shall be invalid, and when such elector shall have struck through the name or names of such candidate or candidates, such elector shall fold up such paper so as to exhibit only the stamp or au thentication on the back thereof by this act required, and shall immediately place such paper in such a box as hereinbefore required to be provided, and each elector shall leave the said inner-room or com partment as soon as he has voted, and shall not re enter the same during the election, and no two electors shall be or remain in the same compartment at the same time, nor shall any elector after re ceiving any such ballot paper take the same out of the said inner room or compartment either before or after he has marked the same, except it may be necessary for the placing of the same when folded in the said box, nor shall any elector exhibit his paper to any person after the names are erased,and the returning officer or his deputy sha ll not allow any papers taken away or ex hibite d said box, but contrary to the foregoing provisions to be deposited inox, shall reject the same, and shall not give to any doctor more than one paper, and any elector wil fully offending against any of the provisions in this act contained, shall be deemed guilty of a misde mean our. 10.

WEST INDIA ENCUMBERED ESTATES COURT. IN RE THE ESTATE OF WILLIAM SAMUEL GREAT HEAD.-EX PARTE SOPHIA BURGESS. A Court of Commissioners for Sale of Encum bered Estates in the West ludies was held yester day at 8, Park-street, Westminster. There was a numerous attendance. This was the first sale under the commission, and the Chief Commissioner (H. J. Stonor, Esq.), in opening the proceedings made the following obser vations : " As this is the first sale by , auction in "this court, I think that it will be of advantage if, before the sale takes place, I make a few ebservations as to the title which this court is authorised to give to the purchaser, the mode of sale, the form of the conveyance, the terms for the payment of the pur chase money, and the means of obtaining possession of the property; after which Mr. Leifcliild (whom we have employed to act as auctioneer) will read the particulars of sale, stating the nature of the • property, and will receive the biddings which will be made for it.-1. And first, as to the title which this court is authorised to give. I have to refer you to the Act 21 and 22 Vic., c. 96, passed this year for the amendment of the original Act of 17 and 18 Vic. for the regulation of this commission, and from the passing of which Amendment Act must be dated the real operation of this commission. The 10th section of the 21st and 22d Vic. enacts Every conveyance executed by the commisioners iia pursuance of these acts shall be effectual to pass the fee simple, and inheritance, and absolute in terest of and in the land thereby expressed to be conveyed, or such lesser estate or interest as may in such conveyance be specified, subject to such right and uncommuted payments, if any, as are re ferred to in the 36th section of the principal Act (namely, crown rents, tithes, and similar payments), and to such tenancies, leases, underlcases, incum brances, and interests, as shall bo expressed or re ferred to in the said conveyance as aforesaid (there are none in the present case), but save as aforesaid discharged from all former and other estates, rights, titles, charges, and incumbrances whatso ever of her Majesty, her heirs and successors, and of all other persons whomsoever; and no convey. ance by the commissioners shall be set aside on the ground of their not having jurisdiction over the subject-matter thereof.' rhis section is quite clear in its language, and it is unnecessary for me to add any comment. Upon it is based the pur chaser's title, and, together with the conveyance from the commissioners, it forms the whole of his title, and saves him and all future purchasers any trouble, expense, or care as to the earlier title, or the evidence required for its support. 2. In the next place, as to the mode of sale and conveyance, the estate will be offered by the auctioneer at an upset price, and the biddings received at a certain rate varying in each case. In the present case the upset price will be offer less than £5O £ 5 ,000, and no purchaser will advanced price at each bidding ; but probably at first purchasers will make larger advances to save time. The commissioners have the power to buy in the estate, or, to speak more accurately, to refuse all the biddings, and post pone the sale to a fixed day or otherwise. This power, however, will be exercised sparingly ; in ordinary cases, the highest bidder will be declared the purchaser, Immediately on a bidding being so received, an order will be made declaring the person offering it to be the purchaser, and direct ing the payment of the purchase money into the Bank of England generally, as in the present case, one quarter as a deposit within 14 days, and the balance within three months, and authority will be given to the bank to re ceive the same. On the payment of the purchase money the conveyance will be executed under the Deal of the court, to be prepared at the expellee of NEWSPAPER ar4 q- , .1 \ -7- • 5 1 4 c a r • the purchaser, which will, h trifling, and Mr. Cust, the secretaiN gi every assistance for it s preparation. U N 3 I I the 13th section of the Amendment Act it is free from stamp duty. The purchaser will also receive a cer tificate under the seal of the court of his purchase, which will be evidence to all persons of his having been declared the purchaser, and which will corre spond with the other made by the court. 3. With regard to possession. Generally upon payment of ilze deposit, and not before, the purchaser will re ceive an order on the parties in possession to deliver up the property. In the present case, however, the peculiar circumstances of the climate and season rendering immediate possession indispensable for the cultivation' of the estate for the next ten -months, I have, in consequence of several applica tions and with the consent of_ the petitioner,. deter mined to give the order for possession upon the guarantee of a London banker for payment of the deposit within 14 days. Lastly, in order to gua rantee obedience to this order for possession on the parties, an order will also be made on the provost marshal, the sheriff of the colony, requiring him to vindicate the purchaser's rights in case of resistance, which, however, is not to be anticipated, and the purchaser will further be entitled to every assist ance from the supreme court of the colony. And a letter will be addressed to the Chief Justice, the local commissioner under the act, informing him of the sale to the purchassr. Whilst these are the purchaser's rights, his liabilities are simply to the payment of the deposit and the purchase money on the day stated, and in the event of non-compliance, the purchaser will be in contempt and liable to committal ; besides, he will be required to pay in terest at five per cent. for every day during which his payments may be in arrear. And, moreover, the estate will be resold, and the purchaser will be held liable to make good any deficiency in price at such subsequent sale. I have only to add, that every information and facility will be given by the court to the purchaser, and that as the mail goes to-night, Mr. Cust and I will continue in attend ance during the whole of the day, if required." Mr. Leifchild, the auctioneer of the court, then read the particulars, and offered the property for sale, which ultimately, after a spirited competition, was purchased by the Very Rev. F. R. Braith waite, who it is understood is connected with the colony, at the sum of £lO,OOO. This sum was considerably higher than was ex pected, and augurs well for future sales. Imme diately on the tonclusion of the sale an order for delivery of possession to the purchaser was given, and went out by the same night's mail. AN AMERICAN STEAM RAM. The following curious statement is extracted from a letter addressed to a contemporary : It has been stated publicly and frequently that the engine of destruction called the " naval rain" was first invented by the Emperor of the French, and the idea of vessels propelled by steam, imper vious to shot and shell from without, has been claimed as an original one by more than one. So much discussion has taken place on this head that not only has the idea never been entertained that a vessel such as has been theoretically described actually, practically exists, but the question of— Has Prussia, has France, has America, such a ves sel—has been answered in the negative. The fol lowing statement may, therefore, be new to your readers, and, if so, may prove the means of awaken ing inquiry : Not many years since there lived in America a rich merchant named Stephens. He suffered seriously in his pocket from sundry unfortunate collisions at sea, and thus his attention was turned to the subject, and it occurred to him that the tre mendous force of steam power might be turned to account in naval warfare in the same way. In a word, he conceived the possibility of building a steam ram, and, after long thought, he communi cated his ideas to the Government. These new fangled notions were not appreciated, but Stephens was so impressed with the importance of the matter that he determined to set to work at once. Being a rich man, he met with no obstacle, and ran sacked the workshops of New York in search of first-rate and respectable workmen. He bound them over to secrecy, and then threw up a high wall round the slip where he proposed to give reality to his idea. Year after year went by, and gradually the leviathan progressed. The steamer was to be shot-proof by means of iron plates, and since then the manner in which those plates resist for hours the heaviest shot has become so liotorious that I need not dwell longer on that theme. It was to be the lar6est steamer afloat, which, I need hardly say, it is not now, being surpassed by our Great Eastern, and it was to travel at the rate of 20 knots an hours—that is to say, faster than ocean steamers, though not so fast, for instance, as her Majesty's yacht. It was to be propelled by six powerful engines, to be sharp at the bow and stern, being a bed of iron at both extremities, carrying one monster gun, and a heavy, but not numerically strong, armament, after the Merrimac model. Such a vessel would be a fearful antagonist for even a fleet of three-deckers to meet with 'on the wide ocean, and all she would have to fear would be being laid aboard. To prevent this she was to throw streams of boiling water- from her sides, so as to be unapproachable. The enterprise gradually progressed, but Mr. Stephens did not live to 112 C it completed, although he was fortunate enough to have his conception approvedby his country, and his expenses refunded, the American Government car rying out his idea. This mammoth naval ram is now nearly finished, a yearly sum having been allotted to the work—so nearly as to be ready for immediate use, and what a fearful power is thus possessed by America! We are totally unprepared to meet this, and, though it certainly does not hurt much yet, what would be the consequence should such an engine of destruction appear unexpectedly among us P "We wanted," said my informant, ‘ 1 to find some means •f destruction which should floor you at once and effectually, if we went to war, and therefore wesaid nothing about it.', The facts I now advance arc easily verified, and thus not only is the assertion nullified that no other country is further advanced in this branch of naval warfare than we are, but it becomes a question as to what effect such a vessel would have had on past events. I cannot givo the precise date when the lines of this monster ship were laid, but I know it to have been pro gressing for at least ten years, consequently such a vessel would have been available during the late war, and another tale would then have been told of our naval operations iu the Baltic. What would have been its effect on the batteries of Sweaborg, of Cronstadt--nay, on the sea bas tions of Sebastopol itself ? I repeat, this does not hurt mei yet, but had we not better look to it before the harm is done, and England's naval pre ,tige has suffered from her slowness in keeping pace with other Powers. While we have been disputing as to who should have the merit of the conception, here is a great. naval nation who hai not only years since invented, but has realised the conception for which we are quarrelling, and while our orators are boldly as serting that such an engine of destruction does not exist, are laughing in quiet self-complacency, -knowing, as America does know, that the wall which surrounds the ealisation of Stephens's idea conceals from the world the true author of this great effort of modern naval warfare.

One of the last party asked one of the former, a coachman, named Decote, the way to Paris ; Decote gave a gr uff answer ; the other took offence their respective com panions interfered, and a regular fight ensued. Presently the companions of Decote ran away, and in a few minutes the latter followed.

Yesterday Decote was brought to trial before the Court of Assizes for having killed the two men, whose names were Laurance and Duval. His advocate endeavoured to show that, having been attacked on a very dark night, in a narrow and deserted street, and by men who were greatly superior to him in physical strength; he had been justified in using his knife ; but the jury declared him guilty, though with extenuating circum stances, and the Court sentenced him to five years' har ' abour.

The eighth week of the Pyne and Harrison company at the above theatre was commenced yesterday evening with Wallace's celebrated opera of " Maritana." Mr Harrison, of course, fulfilled his original part of that most " deboshed Cavaliero " Don Caesar. Miss Louisa Pyne was gipsy "prima ; " and Miss Susan Pyne made a charming Laza rillo. We cannot pay a higher compliment to the long established reputation of this opera, the music of which will ever be fresh and welcome to an English public, than to say that it requires no comment. The old favourite morceaux with which we are all so familiar were rap turously applauded, and generally encored. Miss Pyne's scena in the first act with the harp accessories, and Mr. Harrison's memorable " Let me like a soldier fall," met with an especially enthusiastic reception. There is, per haps, no song sung by Mr Harrison that evokes his falsetto capabilities of voice to such an extent as the above-men tioned melody. He also rendered that most charming of ballads, " There is flower that bloomeat," with extraordi nary sweetness and delicacy. Mr Ferdinand Glover, who played the very onerous and responsible role of Don Jose de Santarem sang conscientiously and with considerable tact; his romance of In happier days" was fully appre ciat . The principal personages in the opera were called for at the conclusion of each act, and of course at the final fall of the curtain, and altogether the revival of " Maritana " at Drury Lane may be pronounced a success. This opera will alternate throughout the week with " Martha " and the " Rose of Castilla." PRINCESS'S. The revival of " Macbeth" at the Princess's Theatre may be considered, without hesitation, the important event of the dramatic world. When the great work bursts upon us with all its wild and sublime magnificence—when the genius of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean is displayed to its full extent in the representation of the principal characters we begin to ask ourselves, Why has this mighty tale o guilt and retribution been so long untold on the boards of the only theatre at which it can be adequately embodied? Often, we fear, has the archaeological enthusiasm of 'our great tragedian rendered him unjust to himself, while he has 'selected works eminently fitted for the instruction, moral and historical, of his countrymen. He has delighted to revive almost every period of the world upon his boards. He has consented to appear as the central figure in his mar vellous pictures, less for the sake of his own reputation, than w ith a view to "general effect. But, surely, after wit nessing such a: per:ormance as that of " Macbeth" last night—after three hours passed in admiration of that wondrous union of power and subtlety —every im partial spectator will exclaim to himself, Can this great and accomplished artist have condescended to dissect the puny jealousy of Leontes ; can he have cramped his energies for the realisation of such a passion less character as that of Prospero ? Such, however, has been the case, fortunately for the people of London, who have thus had an opportunity of seeing all the chief works of Shakespeare performed in unexceptionable style. By the revival of " Macbeth" our great tragedian does himself full justice. The character of King John, fine as it becomes in one situation, scarcely rewards the actor, who has a right to hold the attention of his audience for hours within his grasp ; and while we regarded with unqualified admiration the deep import and significance given by Mr. Charles Kean to the dialogue with Hilbert, we felt that hero was a vast expenditure of power for the production of a brief effect. But in " Macbeth" we have a great genius adequately employed. Scene after scene allows the actor to develop new resources, and the talent that is required for the first act is precisely the reverse of that which is demanded for the fifth. Plunged in abstraction, the listener to super natural advisers—gliding down into an abyss of guilt, horrified at every step, yet urged by a will stronger than his own—absorbed in his own purposes, till they assume a corporeal shape—scared by the spectre of his victim—how different is the dreamy fate-ruled Macbeth from the savage warrior, who, when all else is lost, still has his animal strength and his animal courage to depend upon, and dies regretting that he cannot strike one blow more. It is the greatness of Mr. Charles Kean's Macbeth•that he is exhibited with equal accuracy under every aspect. When he is the dreamer, no one can be more abstracted ; when he irresolutely commits his great crime, no one can give a more harrowing picture of that contest between good and evil, in which the latter must prove vic torious. When he is established on his ill-gotten throne, he wears his throne. with dignity, but we feel that met-king fiends are around - him, threatening his downfall. When the final struggle—the fight for life and death, occurs, he is really the man determined to die " with harness on his back " The tragedy of pity melts the heart, but the tragedy of terror more palpably shows the might of the t rage dian. We cannot say that we sympathise with the Macbeth of Mr. C. Kean—Heaven forbid we should—but we feel that he holds us at his command—that we must follow him int.i.; the recesses of his dark mind, to the comple tion of his dark purposes. Still, with a less consummate actress than Mrs. Charles Kean, the picture even of Macbeth's character would not be complete. The weird sisters who meet him on the heath can only awaken in him the thought of evil, and between thought and act there is still a vast gulf, especially with a natere like that of Macbeth, who "would not play false, and yet would wrongly win." Now, it is the firm, undeviating resolution depicted by Mrs. Charles Kean in all the scenes preceding and pertaining to the murder, that exactly shows how the gulf may be passed by a man so vacillating. The very appearance of Mrs. Charles Kean in this play stamps her as one of those dominant persons who must be obeyed by all who are infirm of pur pose; she is a woman born to rule in queenly fashion. Firm in her purpose, when she has to counteract - the mis givings of her husband, and to accomplish a great end equally firm of purpose, but most cautious of demeanour when she regulates at pleasure the guests at the banquet, and prevents them from discovering the rottenness that lies below the surface •of regal splendour, she is always STRAND. A capital petite comedy, from the pen of Mr. Troughton, entitled " Wooing in Jest and Loving in Earnest," was produced here with pre-eminent success. The plot, which is simple, consists of the stratagems of a bluff old bachelor, Mr. Machiavel (Mr. Selby), who is momentarily expecting to receive the intelligence of the death of an old friend, and consequently an addition to his fortune, to rid himself of the presence of a volatile nephew, Captain Quick (Mr. Parselle), and a young widow (Mrs. Witchington), whose guardian he has been appointed. At first he proposes to marry the widow himself ; but to pursue that course liberty would have to be resigned. Eventually he decides en mak ing a marriage between his nephew and the widow, and the difficulty and fun consists in the schemes the old gentleman has recourse to, to bring about the command of " kind attentions." The Captain is a rattle-brained fellow, who plumes himself upon being a lady-killer, and replies to his uncle's entreaty by telling . him he has only to ask the widow to be accepted. This the uncle dis putes, and promises to purchase the captain his majority if he succeeds in making the sprightly widow fall in love with him. The captain then commences the siege to the lady's heart by wooing in jest, but as his game proceeds he finds he loves in earnest, and a marriage, of course, concludes the piece.. Miss Swanborough, the fair manageress, supported the part of Mrs. Witchington with an archness that was quite refreshing. Parsielle made a capital Captain Quick-- a modern sort of Charles Surface—and Selby's " Machiavel" was one of those finely...conceived and admirably-acted cha racters, for the creation of which this talented actor has acquired so much fame. The :min en scene was splendid, and we may safely predict a long and successful run for "Wooing in Jest and Loving in Earnest." ST. JAMES'S. Yesterday evening an amateur performance took place at this theatre. The play of the "Hunchback" and the farce of "John Dobbs" were performed by a party of ladies and gentlemen, who appeared to be accustomed to acting toge ther, and to have some little experience of the art which they practise for amusement, and we believe occasionally for charitable purposes. The principal characters in the comedy were taken by Mr. Clinton, Misses Grosvenor and Willing ham. The former lady was announced as having been connected with Drury-lane Theatre ; the latter was stated to be a debutante, at least on these boards, and it is but fair to say that she exhibited many qualities which fit her for the exercise of the profession of the stage, if, as we presume, she intends to accept it as a vocation. Of course, in cases of this kind, criticism is out of the question; but it may be conceded that the friends of the histrionic aspirants, who nearly filled the house, were gratified by the exertions to please, which were apparent on the part of every one con cerned in the representation of the evening. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF WIFE DESERTIO.Ar. (From the Plymouth Journal.,) At the Plymouth Guildhall, on Wednesday, William Chapple, a man forty years of age, appre_ hended under a warrant, was charged with desert ing his wife, and allowing her to become charge able to the parish. The defendant said he was not aware, until he was apprehended, that his wife had applied to the parish for relief. Mr. Pardon, relieving officer, said he knew the defendant, and he believed he was able to maintain his wife. Three years ago she became chargeable to the parish, and had remained so up to the pre sent time. Frequent inquiries had been made for the defendant in the interval, but the parochial authorities could obtain no information respecting him until last week, when they heard that he was in Exeter. On Monday a warrant was obtained, and on Thursday the -witness went to Exeter, under the orders of the guardians, and there he found the defendant employed as a groom at Mr. Hutchings' Railway Hotel. The defendant said he had been ill for two years, and during the last twelvemonths he had been paying off debts that he had incurred. When he left his wife she was perfectly able to maintain herself. Mr. Phillips—Mrs. Chapple, how many years has your husband left you altogether ? Mrs. Chapple, a woman apparently 80 years of age, replied that, so far as she could remember, it was between 17 and 18 years. Hr. Phillips (to the defendant).—Why did you leave her ? Defendant—The fact is, sir, I was not comfort able. I was a foolish boy when / married her. I was not more than 19. Mr. Phillips—How old was she ? Defendant—Oh, 50 or 60. (Laughter.) I was a fool. Mr. Phillips—lt was your own choice. Defendant—Not altogether; in fact I was a fool ish boy of 19. Mr. Phillips—Well, go and live with her. (A laugh.) Defendant—l could not do that, but I will allow her 2s. 6d. a-week ; that is as much as I can pay. Mr. Bulteel—That is not enough, for the guardians will have a heavy bill of expenses against you-18 years' desertion ! Defendant—Well, I will say 3s. a-week. The defendant's sister, who was in court, said Mrs. Chapple, at the time her brother married her, was old enough to know better thau marry a mere boy. When his mother heard that he had been such a fool, she was regularly astonished. The defendant—We were both servants together. Mr. Bulteel said he must remand the case until next day, so that the guardians might be communi cated with, and Mr. Pardon might better instructed how to proceed. Mr. Pardon—When he deserted his wife he went off with her daughter, and has since had eleven children by her. Upwards of 2,000 of the German Legionaries, who at the close of the late war were located at the Cape of Good Hope, have volunteered to serve in the Indian army, isto'Y E r yc le- R.E4
