A new Chan delier has been fitted, and the best arrangements have been made for the due Ventilation of the Theatre, and the comfort and convealence of Ike audience. bad been subsequently estranged, departed this If ife—their son, the Hon. G. A. F. LAMB, dying a fterwards on the 27th of November, 1836. In I 828, on the 22d of July, his father, the first Lord DirELnounNE, breathed his last breath ; and, conse quently in that same year the subject of our present . observations, took his seat for the first time in the - Upper House of Parliament. There it was that he .00cupied a prominent post during the Grey Adminis ation, holding the seals of the Home Secretaryship :Fr. Dm 1830, until the brief interval between the July and tl e November of 1834, during which interval he exer cised the authority of the first Minister of the Crown. On the conclusion of the equally brief Adminis- t ration of Sir ROBERT PEEL, Viscount MELBOURNE was again entrusted with the responsibilities attached to the formation of a Government. And, unlike the preceding Prime Ministers of the nineteenth cen ury, he continued to act as First Lord of the Trea tsury for a period of nearly seven years, from . the .April of 1835 to the September of 1841. Bearing in recollection the whole of the Minis terial career of Lord MELBOURNE, both in the reign f his late MAJESTY and in that of our present most C Zracious SOVEREIGN, we are satisfied that his memory v rill be preserved in history, and will be honoured by , osterity chiefly from his having instilled into the .eart of his young QUERN a respect for I he constitutional rights of her subjects, a sense of the responsibilities associated with her august ank, and a genuine yearning for the happiness of I .he great people over whom she had been called by GOD and Destiny to preside. We say this with a per feet remembrance, end a full appreciation, of the prin t ipal measures of reform passed while Lord MEL SOURNE was Premier of England. We bear in mind the i improvement effected in the Irish corporations, the step made towards the introduction of an effective poor law into the sister country, the Irish Compensation Tithe Act, the adoption of the admirable system of penny postage, and 'the union of the two Canadas. And yet, remembering these excel Ir mt - titles possessed by the late nobleman for elebrity as a fleformer, we are satisfied that his n ame will be inscribed on the pages of history, prin t: /pally, if not entirely, as that of the statesman who i ❑strutted Queen V/CTORIA in the mysteries of government. For thk his memory ;ill he long (:cherished, when the remembrance of his blithe and c onvivi4l disposition has been forgotten, when hi 3 it fifty sayings have lost their lustre, when the laxity clhii domestic life has been hidden in obliiion, and when none are left to tell of the once handsome statesman who lounged for seven y ears on the Treasury benches of the House of 'Peers, warding off the vituperations of his most ..Urious antagonists by his own unconquerable amenity, and shielding himself with the negligent feivacity of his replies from the odium that must otherwise have fallen heavily and crushingly, in co; seqaenee of his Ministerial procrastination. - We must again urge upon the proprietors of ra way stock the expediency, if not the imperative necessity, of mutual co-operation, for the purpose or protecting their property from the persevering and systematic attacks made thereon. s-cme immediate and decisive measures must be adopted, if they are not disposed to yield themselves up an easy prey to eheir assailants, to fall contented victims. The vic tory is within their power if they will only struggle to attain it. Their assailants are faerce and implacable, ready to take advan gage of every circumstance that may arise, to distort facts, and to turn to their own advantage matters that should have led to very opposite results. They will combine together for offensive purposes. Why should not these who are endeavouring to pre rerve themselves and families from ruin act in a similar manner ? They have ample power, if that power were only concentrated and made available. 'The capital in which they are interested amounts to more than 160,000,0001. sterling; the annual income t hat will be derived therefrom may be estimated to pro duce at the very lowest calculation 10,000,000/. per an mum (it amounted to 8,366,0001. for the year ending June, 30, 1847). Surely with such . gigantic resources at their disposal, they should not relinquish the con test without a determined struggle. As we have already impressed upon them, any isolated efforts will prove utterly useless, but energetic and combined action must command success. "Pas est al , hoste doceri." An instructive and valuable lesson may be learned from the pro ceedings of their opponents. How unceasing have been their exertions. What weapon of at tack has been permitted to rust in its scabbard ? The distress and suffering encountered by all classes during the recent period of monetary derangement has been unhesitatingly ascribed to the sums ex. pended in the construction of the several railways. The money (it is said) has been abstracted from other branches of business. Commerce and manufacture have pined from the amount so withdrawn— and these most unwarranted imputations have served as pretexts to call upon the Legislature to im pose new and most stringent restrictions upon their undertakings, to interfere most unjustifiably with the management of the works constructed with their own capital, the fruits of their own enterprise. How vigorous and unflinching have been the onslaughts made from this quarter and on this subject, although it was notorious that the money only changed hands, that no portion thereof was sent out of the kingdom, that greater activity was induced in every department of trade by the expenditure, and that beneficial employment was thereby provided for a quarter of a million of persons, who were enabled to support themselves and families in comfort and independence in place of being burdens upon the national resources, and dragging out a miserable existence in the various workhouses. Again, while one party was declaiming upon the exorbitant profits, and calling upon the Legislature to impose enormous taxes upon the companies, another, with equal audacity, was declaring that no real profit was derived that divi dends were provided out of capital, and that when the capital accounts were closed, there would not be sufficient to pay the working expenses, and the several guarantees and liabilities in which the companies were involved. 'vVe had publications professing to show the " fallacy of railway invest ment," the necessity of at once and for ever aban doning so unprofitable a concern. Statements were published of the accounts of the principal com• panies in the Weekly Share List, a journal sanctioned by the committee of the Stock Exchange, and brought out under the superintendence of the secre tary of the railway department of the Stock Ex change. It is scarcely necessary to show how erro r neous were the calculations and unwarranted the con clusions thus brought forward. The authentic docu ments that subsequently appeared so completely refuted the assertions put forward, and exhibited results so totally at variance with those submitted in the Share List, that it would be a work of supererogation to bring forward another syllable in reference thereto. The only possible justification was that the several boards of di rectors possessed information not within the r eac h of the compilers of those statements, and c redit was directors, gravely sought for, on the ground that the publications had elicited the authentic accounts from the but which would not otherwise have thoroughly frightene thatc the shareholders were been given 2redit forsooth!

The mischievous character of the publication, however, became so apparent that the committee (influenced by the bold remonstrance of Mr. HUDSON) forbade a continuance of those state ments in their official journal. It: might:have been supposed that sufficient evil had been thereby effected —that no further effort would be made in that direc tion. But no.

Another conspicuous politician has disappeared from amongst us—Viscount MELBOURNE having de parted life yesterday, in the seventieth year of his age, and amidst the seclusion of his ancestral residence at Brocket Hall, Hertfordshire. A statesman of honourable reputation; a politician of severely tested consistency ; a publicist whose urbanity re mained unruffled during the bitterest recriminations ; an administrator of constitutional indolence, but of conscientious honesty ; a debater remarkable rather for the tartness of his felicitous repartees, than for the ornate splendours of eloquence,—WiralAst LIMB has left for the remembrance of posterity the souvenirs of a life brilliant if not extraordinary, tarnished by many blemishes but adorned also by many virtues, and those virtues creditable to himself and advantageous to his contemporaries. From the period of his birth, on the 15th of March, 1779, until that of his death on the 24th of Novem ber, 1848, the deceased nobleman lived in the midst of political contentions and of national anxieties which, for a considerable time, affected himself in vidually. Nor is it consolatory to reflect that the invidious misconstruction recently placed upon what is called, in the slang of party, the " T. Y. Corre spondence," is understood to have imbittered the last hours of the departed statesman, and to have has tened, in some measure, the moments of his dis solution.

And during that long appren ticeship as one of the popular representatives, he was returned at successive elections by the consti tuencies of Leominster, of the Haddington district of burghs, of Portarli n gt on, of Peterborough, and of Hert fordshire ; his model as a politician being the illus trious orator CHARLES Fox. Under the Government of GEORGE CANNING, the future Premier was further drilled into the habits of administration by his nomination to the Chief Secretaryship under the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, an ap pointment which he continued to preserve on Lord GODERICH'S accession to office, and even during the Ministry of bis Grace the Duke of WELLINGTON. Immediately before the agitation for Parliamentary Reform a variety of events transpired which tended to exercise a remarkable influence over , the destinies of the Hon. WILLIAM LAMB. In 1828 , he was dismissed from the Chief•Secrets.ryship for Ireland, in consequence of his participatiog in the endeavour to compass the disfranchisement of East Retford. In 1828, on the 25th of January, his wife, Lady CA.aordzi E PONSONDY, to whom he had been i united on th e 3 d of June, 1805, and From whom be THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 25, 1848. _ published in the Share List, will be resumed in; a new weekly publication, edited by the exclusive author of these articles, and, no doubt, the same mischievous ingenuity will he exhibited. that already led to such lamentable consequences, if the shareholders suffer themselves again to be affrighted thereby. The cry of " wolf," however, we are told, loses its charm from constant repeti sion, and the alarm that has been given too fre quently will cease to terrify the listeners. Let the shareholders, however, see the steps taken against th e m, and organize a sufficient defence against the attacks of their enemies. G E II NI A N AND THE NORTHERN STATES.. PRUSSIA. Intelligence has been received from Berlin to the 23d instant. The Prussian Staats Anzieger of the 22d contains no official intelligence respecting- the new Ministry-- It appears, nevertheless, that his MAJESTY is seriously occupied with the formation of a new Cabinet et Potsdam. Not only MM. VON GRABOW and Vo BECKERATH are there, but also Messrs. SIMSON awl llErtoeesualeN, from Frankfort. M. SIMSON is an honourable and sensible man, and will only become a member of the Cabinet on condition that the existing conflict between the Crown and the people shall be, set aside by some other way than that of an octroi constitution. The refusal to pay taxes will not place, the Ministry in any monetary difficulties, partly because they have still the greater portion of the ten millions of the voluntary loan at their disposal, and. partly because the refusal is very limited. They are, therefore, resolved, in case of need, to declare both Breslau and Cologne in a state of siege. The fractiore of the National Assembly met this evening at the Hotel de Ruper ; it has gone so far in the last reso lution that it cannot go any farther. There are numerous reports of the seizure of arena and ammunition, and the discovery of conspiracies. Several of those members of the National Assembly who had at first•determined to obey the royal decree and meet at Brandenburg, have now determined to remain with their colleagues in Berlin. Among others who have joined the left is M. Mrrese, ex- Minister of Trade and Commerce. There are now upwards of 260 members who have determined to remain in Berlin. The fraction which is to meet et Brandenburg will not be able to muster in sufficient numbers to make a house. The Archduke JOHN as regent of Germany, has offered military aid to the King of PRUSSIA, which his ZVIAJESTY has refused. The Gazette de Cologne says that the civic guard have already delivered up 17,000 or 18,000 guns, and that the remainder will no doubt be given up in a day or two, and it is hoped that the state of siege will thsn be raised, and also that the Brandenburg minis• try will resign, the existence of which has nearly shaken the constitutional monarchy to its base; and that the National Assembly, seeing the great respon sibility it has assumed, will give its aid to a satisfac tory arrangement. A demonstration is in prepara tion to present an address to hie MAJESTY, at Pots dam, to raise the state of siege. It is reported that the Princes have pronounced against the abdication of the KING, and declare that in such case they would not accept the crown. The Cologne deputation were to have an audience of the KING at Potsdam on the 20th. They demand the immediate dismissal of the Brandenburg ministry, or they cannot answer for the peace of the Rhine provinces, already excited by the execution Of ROBERT BLUM. At Treves, on the 20th November, the authorities having announced that the taxes must be paid, and that they would employ force against those who should refuse to pay them, and having posted up no tices to that effect, the people attempted to tear them down, whereupon the guard interfered, and there was a conflict till the evening, the troops using their arms, and wounding many of the people. The bur gomaster was dangerously wounded. At Aix-la-Chapelle, on the 22d, a regiment of ar tillery, with six pieces of cannon and a regiment of cavalry, arrived to enforce the payment of taxes. At Coblentz the Civic Guard have declared that they will not aid in collecting taxes. Dusseldorf was, on November 22, declared in a state of siege. At Goerlitz the authorities have re commended the people to pay their taxes into the Communal Treasury, where they can be kept in re serve. Great agitation prevails in the environs of Halle, and in the town a conflict took place on e 19th between the National Guards and the demo which required the intervention of the troops. said that if the substitutes of the Deputies should present themselves at Brandenburg, as the Ministry hopes, the Deputies will go themselves, so as to deprive the substitutes of all power, and maintain their resolutions. In this ease the Court will I think seriously of a dissolution, and even of having new elections. The refusal of the taxes has fright ened a portion of the country. Magdeburg has made a declaration of reserve similar to that of Stettin. The National Assembly has received 583 addresses of adhesion. The Chief President of the province of Silesia, PINDER, has published a proclamation, declaring his recognition of the resolution of the Assembly relative to the non-payment of taxes, and stating, if he is called on to act according to that resolution, he shall be prepared to do so. He has communicated to the Ministry his opinion that the vote was forced from the Chamber, as the only defence possible against the unconstitutional measures of the Ministry ; but any anarchical or republican attempts against public order and the constitutional monarchy he will put down instantly—the solution of the question must be a peaceful one. As a consequence of his letter he has been dismissed from his office, and M. VON SCPILEINITZ has been named to succeed him. A pro • clamation from him to the inhabitants of Silesia, calling on them to pay taxes, and remai n i n th e path of legality, appear s i n the Rats itnzieger. Troops have been forwarded to Silesia. At Breslau the agitation continues to be very great. The city has not yet been declared in a state of siege. The disturbance there originated as fol lows :—On the 19th the leaders of the Burgherwehr appeared at the sitting of the civic committee of secu rity, and demanded —l. Forthwith to have the royal treasury chests placed under the protection of men who possess the confidence of the people, in order that the money may not be employed for the Brandenburg Ministry. 2. 'That men possessing the confidence of the people be summoned from the provinces. Here upon Professor REGENBLECHT, Messrs. SIEBEG, ROSLER, GaUND , LUDEWIG, and F ROMBERG, d eclared that they would resign. Proposal No. I was then carried with the following amendment:—That the committee for public security de take necessary steps for placing the treasury chests under sur veillance, in order to prevent the employment of the taxes and state monies for the Brandenburg Ministry. A deputation was then appointed to wait on the Pre sident. In answer to which that functionary de claved that he had that day written to all the Govern ment treasuries in the provinces, not to p a y any monies without hi s permission. Vhen this declara tion of the President of Upper Silesia was made known to the people assembled in front of the Senate House, great confusion ensued. The majority in sisted that a provisional committee should be pro claimed, and the landwehr raised the cry to arms. Upon this the generale was beaten, and a deputa tion of the landwehr demanded of the magistrates to give up all the arms which were stored in the Senate House, or they would be seised by force. This demand was peremptorily refused. The Senate House was, according to latest accounts, strongly guarded by the burgherwehr, and numerous military picquets were stationed in the suburbs. General VON SCHRECKENSTEIN is to be Com wander-in-chief of the troops in Silesia. four pontoons. The second corps d'arrnee, com manded by Prince DS REUSS KUTWITS, con sists of 15 battalions of infantry and seven squadrons of cavalry, with 54 gars and one pontoon. The third, commanded by Field-Mar shal LERBHONE, consists of 8 3-6 battalions of Grena diers (complete), 25 squadrons of cavalry, 108 guns, and eight pontoons. There remain in Vienna 17 battalions of infantry, 10 squadrons of cavalry, in cluding the Imperial squadron of' Cuirassiers, 36 guns and four pontoons. On the frontier of Hungary is stationed Major-General LINEIONISAY, who retired to Gliicling when the wh o l e o f t h e Hungarian army made a movement to attack_him. He has five battalions of infantry, two squadrons of cavalry, and 12 guns. The operations about to commence will, therefore, be undertaken by 42 18-6 battalions of infantry, 34 squadrons of cavalry, 228 guns, and 10 ponto ons . WINDISCHGRATZ will command, in person. JEL LACHICH has proceeded to Radna, where he was re ceived with great enthusiasm, and, on being called on to speak, observed, " Gentlemen, there has been too much talking already, it is my part to act. If less had been said and more done, there would have been less unhappiness in this world." Letters from Prague and Kremeer, of the 18th and 16th inst., are filled with accounts of the supple mentary elections of Deputies to the Diet about to be held in the latter place. The Austrians seemed to be filled with apprehensions that Count STADION'S Ministry will be of very reactionary character, though it is difficult to conceive what other line, save that of reaction against the Democratic fever, is open to the new Ministers. delay, particularly so at Lisbon, where the detention is considerable. The letters are cut through and fumigated. GIBRALTAR. The subjoined notification has been issed by order of the Governor : Gibraltar, Nov. 14, 1848. " Whereas it has been communicated to his Excel lency the Governor that the Boards of Health of Malaga and Algeciras have reduced the quarantine of observa tion from fifteen days to eight days, on arrivals from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, bringing clean bills of health, according to the quaran tine regulations new in force at the Ports of Cadiz, Lis bon, and Virgo ; the Board of H ea lth o f Gib ra l tar has consequently mae a similar order, which is hereby pub lishedand proclaimed for the information of all concerned. 1,000?. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool this week has been very buoyant, though the actual advance in prices has not been above id. per lb. Yesterday 8,000 bales were sold.—Railway Shares were rather heavy again. The increase in the public deposits at the Bank of England during the week to the 18th inst., was again important, and the amount now stand% well, and thews a steady collection of the revenue. It is to be noted like wise that the private deposits were diminished, and pro bably for payment of duties and employment in trade. The largely-increased amount of Government lodgments will account for the reduction in the note circulation, without the assumption that the discount business has fallen off, for the decrease in other securities is very trifling. Compared with the previous week, the return gives the following result:— Notes issued 27,198,835 Increase 237,630 Rest Increase Public Deposits 5,149,495 Increase ...... 1,11 i•,224 Other Deposits 10,014,544 Decrease Seven Day and other Bills Decrease Government Securities No alteration Other Securities Increase Notes .... 9,355,690 Increase Bullion .. 13,919,960 Increase Active circulation Decrease There are accounts of July 1 from Sydney, which give a tolerably favourable report of the mercantile markets. Freight to Great Britain was at lid. per lb. for Wool, and exchange at 2k per cent. premium, for Bank drafts at thirty days. The Antwerp mail brings us the Thursday's prices of the Dutch funds higher from Amsterdam, the Two- and a half per Cents, having been 471. There has been no gold exported from London this week, and of silver the quantity shipped is 141,000 oz. to Holland. The English Stock Market is extremely quiet.

The tone of the market is firm ass the French Funds come higher, and the Bank return is satisractory. It is even said that the Chancellor of the Exchequer has sold one million of stock, and will re quire no more, the revenue being so good. We cannot vouch for the accuracy of this assertion, but certainly we anticipate a good financial report for the current piercer. The t'oreiga Securities are very steady. Spanish Five per Cents. have been 11k, and the Three per Cents. Per tuguese Four per Cents. are flat, at 24k to 25. Mexican have improved to 21k Dutch Four per Cents. ere 72.

The Saxon Ministry has published the following notice : " The intelligence from Vienna that martial law has has been applied to Robert Blum, Deptey of the Na tional German Assembly, has produced in Saxony a lively impression of grief and indignation. These senti ments have been manifested in popular meetings, and have also been represented to the Government. The latter fully recognised the importance of this unhappy event, as well as the duties thereby imp )sed upon it, end it will fulfil them. This it has already declared to the Second Chamber of the States, and it now repeats them to the whole Saxon nation, But at the same time it exhorts to prudence and moderation. " The Saxon legation at Vienna has been charged to demand the acts of procedure against Blum. The Go vernment has desired the legation to give an immediate account of its conduct. It has made propositions to the Central Power of Frankfort as to the authority which is especially concerned in that event. Tie Government, therefor e , conceives that it has done all thnt could rea sonably be expected in the present state of the affair. " But the movement and. the . exigencies have net stopped. At Leiusic bEndtd pass - on has hd a part of the inhabitants to violate the rights of men in regard to the Auetrian Consul The public voice has already judged that deed, and the Government hopes that, fur the heuour of the Saxon people, no further attempts of this kind will be made. The ci;iz-ns who were the political adversaries of Blum hare been threatened ; this is exercising tyranny in the name of liberty. It has been demanded that the Government shall give the passports to the Austrian Envoy at Dresden. This would be lighting up the flames of civil war in Germany. •It has even been demanded that the Saxon Ambassador in Vienna shall be con demned without being heard. This is contrary to all the principles of established justice. Tho Government will in due time publish the result of the accounts which it has demanded from its envoy. " Some have invitt-d the Government to take charge of the family of Robert Blum, but others have reserved that care for voluntary support. " The Government, considering this public declara tion as a reply to the propositions which have been ad• dressed to it, expects that on this melancholy and seri ous occasion the Saxon people will show themselves worthy of liberty, by their respect for the laws. (Signed) " MUNN, VON PFORDEN, GEOBGI, OBERLAND, VON BULLA. " Dresden, Nov. 14." It is :reported that a conspiracy has been disco vered at Leipsic, which was to burst out simultane ously, on the 18th, at Dresden. That at Dresden false keys had been discovered for penetrating into the town, and sounding the tocsin. That the autho• rities of Leipsic have in their possession numerous papers and lists of proscribed persons. DENMARK. Letters from Copenhagen give the following list of the new Ministry :—viz,, Count A. W. MOLTKE, President of the Council. and Minister for Foreign Affairs ; BARDENFLETII, Minister of Justice ; PAIIRT MAX, Marine ad interim. These were members of the old Ministry. The new members are—BAUD, for the Interior; Count SrONNECK, Finance; Professor MAnvio, Cultus and Education ; Professor CLASS suN, Minister without portfolio. The President of the Council declared that the new Government would follow the same principles as their predecessors, par ticularly in regard to the internal administration of the country. According to letters from Frankfort, it seems that the difference with Denmark is not unlikely to take a better turn for the latter, and that the Central Power is not indisposed to listen to the advice of the other Powers who are guarantees for Den mark's peaceful possession of Schleswig. Lord Cow- LET has again lately made very serious -remonstrances against the conduct of the new temporary Govern ment in the duchies of Schleswig Holstein as in open contradiction with the armistice. The Russian Mi nister has been charged to recal to the memory of Archduke JOHN and his Ministers the treaties be tween Russia and Denmark of 1767 and 1773, which the EMPEROR regarded as containing a formal guarantee of the possession of Schleswig for the King of DENMARK, and the fulfilment of which he could not refuse his ally if be appealed to him ; the consequence of such event might prove of great im portance with regard to the relations of Russia and Get many. WIRTEmBURG. The ministerial crisis has terminated by the KING voluntarily resigning 300,000 florins per annum from his civil list—that is to say, 200,000 florins during his life, and 100,000 florins temporarily. It will be remembered that the Chambers had voted a reduction of the civil list, and that the ICING had refused to ratify this resolution, which he considers an encroach ment on the Crown. The conflict induced the Cabinet to tender their resignations. The Sessions of the States were solemnly opened on the 17th, by the KING in person. In the speech from the Throne the following passage occurs " The work of the German Constitution, for which the National German Assembly met at the same time as the Saxon States, is advancing rapidly. "1 have given my entire consent t, the resolution of the 28th of Juno, by which that Assembly has formed the Central Power ; and since you, gentlemen, hare given them your constitutional suffrages, we have re sponded completely to the disposition of the Central pow er . As I am firmly resolved tl aid the same in future, I believe I may hope that the reolutions of the National Assembly will not meet with any opposition in Saxony, and the more so since in accord wi h the people I shall never lose sight of the noble object of forward ing the work of the German Constitution—the unity, the libel ty, and the strength of our great country, both at home and abroad." ITALY. The Alba of Florence, under date of Rome, the 17th, gives the following account of the murder of M. Rossi. He had exasperated the people by threat ening, on the preceding day, to act vigorously against the disturbers of the public peace, and had made a great display of military force. On his getting out of his carriage to enter the Palace of the Legislature, he was hooted, and, having looked at the crowd with a sort of defiance, a man rushed forward and stabbed him in the throat.—A letter which we have received from a correspondent at Rome says—" A 3 M. Rossi was ascending the staircase of the Chamber of De puties, he was surrounded by a body of the Legionari (the legion returned from Vicenza), one of whom came forward and stabbed him." The assassin, pro tected by his comrades, escaped. The Osservatore Triestino of Wednesday, the 15th instant, received this morning, has the following an nouncement AUSTRIA. Accounts from Vienna, of the 17th, state that Professor FUSTER and SMOLKA, the President of the Diet, have been arrested in consequence of certain re velations made by the murderers of Count LATOUR. As, however, these murderers have been executed, no great faith can be placed in these revelations, more especially when we remember that the Austrian Chancery has always been celebrated for the facility with which it can produce precisely the document or the evidence wanted when wanted. In fact, these things in Austria are manufactured to order. Provisions were becoming very dear and even _ scarce in Vienna.

Mr, Travers sang the music with exquisite taste, and w much applauded. His romanz a in the last act wt perfect gem. The duet with Dulcamara too was excel lently given. Miss Romer reappeared in her favourite character of Adina (her first appearance since her late sever:: illness), and Mr. H. Corri made a rough but not an inefficient Dulcamara. He was encored iu the barcarole. The choruses were excellently given, and the raise en scene everything that could be desired. The house was well attended. as a EXETER HALL. Handel's Messiah was given here lest evening by the Sacred Harmonic Society for the first time this season. The programme contained the following notice:—"For the accommodation of persons who may be desirous of leaving the hall before the conclusion of the oratorio, a pause of five minutes' duration will be observed, after the Hallelujah Chorus,' which ends the Second Part; and it is earnestly requested that those who , wish to retir e w ill take that opp ortun i ty of doing so, and allow the large portion of the audience who desire to remain, the oppor tunity of witnessing the performance of the magnificent termination of the work free from interruption. In con sideration of the sacred nature of the oratorio, the audience is earnestly requested to allow the per formance to proceed without interruption from applause or encores." The consequence of these arrangements was, that the Messiah was better performed as a whole than it ever has been in our re collection. It would be well that the system of encores should be entirely abolished. An encore destroys the unity of the composition, and an oratorio or an opera should be as much an unity as an epic poem or a tragedy. Nore but persons who are entirely ignorant of music as a science would think of encoring anything. The pulp° at the conclusion of the second part, in order to allow persons to leave, is also an admirable reguldtion. It enabled those, who loved music to listen to the oratorio to its conclusion without being interrupted with that perpetual shualing of feet, which has hitherto too fre quently prevented the just appreciation of the concluding portions of this sublime composition, Mr. Costa con ducted, and conducted admirably. The principal vo calists were Miss Birch, Miss Dolby, and Messrs. Sims Reeves and H. Phillips. It was the first appearance of Mr. Reeves in this oratorio, and the impr e s s i on he pr o d uce d was highly ' favourable. He sang all the songs with fervour and simplicity, reverently adhering to the text. He most of all shone in the recitative, " Comfort ye my people," and the air that follows, " Every valley," in which his style and execu tion werelequally irreproachable. Miss Birch exhibited her usual talent in the soprano songs, and Miss Dolby's "He was despised," was, as usual, pathetic and impres sive. Mr. H. Phillips, in " The people that walked in darkness," and " Behold I tell you," maintained his po sition as the first of English bassos. In the latter the trumpet obligato was cleverly played by Mr. T. Harper. The choruses were executed with remarkable precision, vigour, and attention to light and shade. The popular " For unto us a child is born," was given, perhaps for the first time, with proper expression; the theme was deli vered pianissimo, and a gradual crescendo was made up to the grand burst of the whole choral and instrumental forces, which produced a very striking effect. The "Hallelujah" was splendidly executed, and the elaborate fugued choruses were all sung with point and correct ness. The hall was crowded to suffocation. On the first of November, the Gnat Western Railway Company discontinued issuing return tickets. A fortnight back we augured the result of the step. The return of the revenue for the week ending Nov. 11, as compared with that of the preceding week, shows a falling-off of 5.37/. 14s. lOd. Did we not say as much ? Beforo the plan which was to bring the company's ship home has been in operation a fortnight, a rather serious decrease for so short a period takes place in the receipts. For this the public were inconvenienced and tricked. How such a ridiculous step could be taken by a set of men, who, of all the world, ought to possess a little business acumen, is really amazing , —Keene's Path Journal. DESTRUCTION Or LARKS DY THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH WIRE.---One frosty morning last week, the plate layers upon th e Whi te h aven Junction Railway found no less than seventy larks lying dead beneath the telegraph wires between Workington and Maryport. The same day Mr. Forster, inspector of the line, found seventeen larks between Harrington and Workington, The heads of many of the birds were cut off, and their bodies otherwise mangled. Sea birds and different kinds of game have also occasionally been found dead—having probably come in c.mtact with the invisible wires at night when in full flight.—Carlisle Journal. SHIELDS, THITRSDAY.—Wind S.W.; more settled weather.—Th e Norfolk, Robertson, arrived here, reports that the Jane and Ann schooner, of and from hence to Lowestoffe, coal laden, when riding below Winvrton on Monday morning, at about fifteen minutes past five, was run down by a light brig, bound northward.
