Applications for Schemes only will be attended to g ratis. Any necessary and desirable information on the subject will aways be given on sending a Scheme, wherefore those addressing }Leine Brothers have only to write a line, expressing their wish, and giv ing their full and plain directions. The latter is required to se cure the safe receipt of the Communications, but any Customer of Heine Brothers may depend upon the strictest secrecy, as to his taking a Chance, or getting a Prize.

In the 66th Lottery, the largest Prize of 100,000 Bancomares Net, came up to the Ticket No. 8.673, with the motto " Brothers, remit to Liverpool." The pablication of Ta SUN NEWSPAPER commenced this dap at 5 minutes to 3 o'clock. , v ., Nipi Zhe LONDOW, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30, 1835. Letters and Papers from Madrid of the 19th inst., have just reached us. Their contents are very-favour able, The Gazette of the 18th inst. contains a Royal Decree in which the REGENT informs the nation that all diffeences between the Government and the Juntas were amicably terminated ; and that the only enemies against which Spain had to direct its energies were Don CARLos and his deluded followers. The Paris Papers of Wednesday, just received, are chiefly occupied with remarks on the prosecution of the Press—the probable dissolution of the Cabinet— and, incidentally, with the state of affairs in Spain. On Tuesday M. DUPOTY, the responsible Editor of the Reformateur, was tried before the Assize Court of Paris, convicted of endeavouring to bring the Go vernment into • contempt, and, as a natural conse quence, sentenced to two months' imprisonment, and a fine of 4,000 francs ! We have read the articles for which the Editor of the Reformateur has been prose cuted, and have no doubt of the authenticity of the statements contained in. them. The Riformateur stated that discontent prevailed in the army—that ar rests for treasonable conspiracies had taken place 'in consequence—and that the people sympathized with the individuals who had been so arrested. Was there anything untrue, or even exaggerated, 'in that ? The arrests took place, and the crime for which officers and men were arrested was officially announced to be " a treasonable conspiracy !" Whether three or four passers-by expressed sympathy, or .withheld it, is nothing to the purpose ; but the fact of the existence of political discontent in the French army cannot be controverted. And, what is still more important, the means which. the Government is taking to conceal it from the people will increase it more and more, and perhaps terminate in forcing the troops openly to pro claim themselves the guardians of the rights of their fellow-citizens, not the abettors of a . tyranny which seeks to abolish them. The reports of disunion in the Cabinet are more pre valent than they have been for some time past. PARis, OCT. 27.—Yesterday it was said that Don Carlos was going to attack Vittoria. Now it appears that it was only a demonstration that the Carlists intended. How many times has the attack of that city been announced and adjourned ! - "ors from the frontier say—" The - Castile, three leagues -1 12 artillerymen, of artil- ~ ti , ~:~ ~ '- '%‘ Z' it is stated that the Christmas under General Espeleta had thirty-five killed, and fifty wounded, and that the Carlists suffered much loss.

It appears that the four chief banking houses of this city have agreed with the Government on the terms of the new loan. A. s they- who are always masters of the Exchange have hitherto found it their interest to keep down the prices, in order to obtain the new loan for the Go vernment on the most favourable conditions, it is their interest now that they have agreed with the Government, to make the prices rise, in order to induce other capitalists to take a share in the new loan. It may be inferred, however, from various circumstances that the terms are very advantageous to the Government. VIENNA, OCT. 19, 20.—Five per Cents., 1024 ; Four per Cents., 99i ; Bank Shares, 1,374.

FINE ARTS. ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE PICTURESQUE ANNUAL. • Tilt. London : 1835. These Illustrations, of one of the most favourite Annuals of the day, are twenty-five in number; and consist wholly of views of St. Petersburgh and Mos cow. Both these imposing cities show to advantage ; but Moscow is by far the most showy and picturesque, realizing all that we could conceive of beauty and magnikence, The Palace of t►►e Kremlin, the old residence of the Czars, ere yet Peter the Great had resolved to transfer the seat of Government to the banks of the Neva, Exhibits a more splendid and ex tensive front than even the Seraglio of Constantinople. Our English Palaces, even the best of . them, at Windsor, would cut a ,most deplorable fighre when compared with the Kremlin at Moscow. The present Illustrations contain not loss than four views of this extengive pile of buildings, not one of which but con. veys a vivid idea of its grandeur, The sketches of St. Petersburgh, though equal in point of design and execution, will yet bear OQ comparison with those of Moscow. The best are the views of the Admiralty-- a stately fabric—and of - the late Emperor Alexander'', triumphant column, beside ..which, our lately-erected pillar to the Duke of York, would, we suspect, show no better than a ►Wile-stone. The most carefully and gracefully-finished engraving in this pleasant series of Illustrations, is the 66 Tower of the Niekolskoi Church" at St. Petersburgh, which has been engraved by Radcliffe, from an able design furnished by Vickers. LITERATURE. THE MERCHANT SEAMAN'S ACT. With Forms, Copies, Notes, and a full Index. Also the Act for Encouraging the Enlistment of Seamen in the Navy. BY 011.411 LES F. F. IVORDSWORTII, ESQ. Of the Inner Temple, Barrister-at-Law. London : Butterworth, 1'835. Mr. Wordsworth is a most useful and indefatigable labourer in the field of popular instruction ; for no man can render a more essential service to society than he who diffuses a knowledge of the laws and institu tions which regulate and govern its various relations. The several Treatises of which Mr. Wordsworth is the author, are pre-eminently distinguished for their prac tical' character. They possess the two great requisites for a lasting popularity : they are available to every person, and every person is more or less interested in the subjects of which they treat. His " Law and Practice of Elections for England and Scotland," and his " Digest of all the Election Reports," are works which ought to be in the hands of every constituency in the United Kingdom. The Earl of MULGRAVE is gathering golden opi nions at every place he visits in Ireland. On Satur day last a splendid public entertainment was given to hiin in Belfast, at which a vast body of the intelligent and respectable citizens of that thriving commercial town were present. His Lordship's speech on this occasion was marked by his usual straight-forwardness and sagacity. He observed that, as the representative ! of MAJESTY, he felt bound to do, justice to all par ties, and to grant to no body of men in particular, a monopoly of favour and interest. His speech was lis tened to throughout with the 'most marked attention, though the Tory journals would fain have us believe that his Viceroyalty has been, and still is, unpopular ; and has wholly failed as an instrument for the pacifi cation of Ireland. We hazard little in predicting— despite our Contemporaries' often repeated assertions to the contrary,--that if Lords MULGRAVE and MGR.. PETII do but go on as they have commenced, steadily following up the principle of administering justice with impartiality, neither unduly raising the Protestant on the one hand, nor unduly depressing the Catholic on the other, they will become, at no distant period, the most popular men that ever exercised official authority in Ireland. We should not omit to mention that the toast, " His Majesty's Ministers," was drank at this dinner with as much enthusiasm, as ever was the " Glorious, Pious, and Immortal Memory," by the Orangemen of Derry. Yet this is the Government which is said by the Tory faction to be the object of such universal contempt and execration, from its syco phantic obsequiousness to O ' CONNELL and his " forty-jointed Tail !" The two Acts - embodied in the little volume now before us, are as important to seamen of every class, as a knowledge of their duties on board ship. We had some idea of making a digest of them, but we find that it would be impossible to embody the sub stance of them within a compass suited to the space unoccupied in our columns. We must, therefore— having expressed a hope that this little Treatise will be extensively circulated among all sea-faring and mer cantile men—conclude our notice of it with the fol lowing extract from Mr. Wordsworth's preface " There are two principal features, however, in the pre sent Act which at once command attention : the first is, the establishment of a register of all the British Merchant Seamen of the United Kingdom,—a provision calculated to add to the unity and strength of that branch of na tional power, at the same time that it affords the pa eans of readily ascertaining its condition, and the amount of contribution which might be required from it in any na tional emergency. Subordinate to this important feature, is the provision under which there must be an agreement in writing, of a certain form, between the masters of ships and their crews. Hitherto, many irregularities and frauds have been practised against Seamen—a class of persons, in a great degree, indifferent about ,their rights—from the want of proper enactments on this subject. " The other great improvement is the empowering of justices of the peace to adjudge summarily upon claims for wages not exceeding twenty pounds,—whereas seamen were formerly but too often driven to the Court of Ad miralty for a remedy. This provision may be said to be analogous to one contained in the recent " Law Amend ment Act," enabling plaintiffs to try certain cases under twenty pounds before the Sheriff, at an inconsiderable ex pense. Again : when a voyage was terminated, a certain time must have elapsed before a Seaman could claim his ges—but now, when he shall have an opportunity of at once shipping himself in another vessel, he may pro ceed before a justice and obtain immediate payment. " It will be seen, also, that under the 38th Section, where assaults and batteries shall have been committed on I_ oard ships, a summary remedy before two justices of the peace is now created. That Section extends the provi lions of the 9th Geo. IV., c. 31, for consolidating and amending the statutes in England relative to offences against the person,' to Merchant Seamen whilst on board ship. " Humanity pervades several of the clauses of this Act. By the fortieth, and four following Sections, the forcing on shore, or leaving behind, any person belonging to the crew, is made a misdemeanour, and such offence may he tried in any part of his Majesty's dominions, instead of the United Kingdom only, as hitherto ; nor can a Seaman be discharged abroad without the sanction of Consuls or other functionaries ; nor left abroad upon plea of his not being in a condition to proceed, &c., without a similar authority, and without the Master paying such Seaman his wages. The• mere enumeration of these provisions will manifest the anxiety of the Legislature to provide, in behalf of Seamen,_against every contingency. In fur therance of this humane object, accumulated duties are thrown upon Consuls, resident British merchants, and other persons. " Every ship-owner and ship-master must furnish him self with the Act of Parliament ;—it has therefore been my object to append copious Notes, in order that an epi tome of all the laws relating to Merchant Seamen might be comprised in one publication. There are two or three o f the Notes relatin g to those bene vo l en t es t a bli s h men t s , the Corporation for the Relief of although not S Seamen,' and the Seaman's Hospital Society,' which I have had within mue the pleasurepre present s o u l b e s g c a r l i b i objectng, bee a of use, this publication, they cannot be too extensively known to Merchants and Mer chant Seamen. " Some forms are added,—most of them fit for practical purposes : those which are not so in precise terms, will be found useful as guides in the framing of others. These, with the Notes, and A tolerably full Index, constitute the claims which this little book may be considered to have upon public attention." A Report of the proceedings which took place at the first general Meeting of the Proprietors of the Great Western Railway at the City of London Tavern yesterday, will be found in an other part of The Sun. In directing attention to it, we must take leave to observe, that we feel almost as much pleasure in recordhig the success of this great national work, as very charitable people do when relating the thriving state of the children of their adoption. The sentiment may not be so acute, but it is certainly the same, a little modified by circumstances which are in themselves mere accidents. The Sun is the only London Journal which, if we may be allowed the - expression, adopted railways, when they were almost without advocates in the country, When they were opposed both in and out of Parlia ment, it lent them all the assistance in its power ; and after their prospects had begun to brighten, it never once withdrew its support from them ; although it would have done so, had its regard for its own pecu niary interests outweighed its solicitude for the ad. vancement of the national welfare. The Report, read by the Secretary, gives a most cheering account of the progress of this great under taking. The following extract from it is particularly deserving of attention : " A Company has already been formed to establish a branch from Swindon, to communicate with the clothing district of Gloucestershire, and with the important towns of Gloucester and Cheltenham. Another branch is in contemplation from 'Oxford ; a railroad from Bristol to Exeter is also before the public, under most favourable circumstance. A Company is formed for another from Merthyr to Cardiff, and, finally, a Company is in possession of an Act to carry a railroad from Limerick to Waterford ; measures likely to promote the inte rests of the Great Western Railway, and to realise the expec tations entertained of its value and importance." The Report calculates that the whole line of road between London and Bristol will be completed in 1840—a brief period truly, if the extent of road, and difficulties of carrying it on be taken into considera- In the meanwhile it is proposed that both ends e great line be finished ; the one from London tidenhead ; the other from Bristol to Bath ; thus :ng every facility for carrying on an extensive y traffic between these several places, This is agaciously resolved, and we have no doubt b,44 - , 'More the road is finished, the profits arising fiaished parts will defray the expenses of the The actual admeasured length of the New River is thirty-eight miles three-quarters and eight-eight yards. Estimating its flowing At tWO miles an hour, its produce every 24 hours amounts to the enormous quantity Of 65,197,440 imperial gallons. This would give about 1,000 gallons a-day to the number of housos the Company supplies. The Catholic Bishops, by command of the Pope, have abolished many holidays in South America, the ob servance of which was hitberco 414 to be strictly obligatory. AN ATTENTIVE MEMBER.-Pitt once said of Mr. Ferguson, of Pitfour, on seeing him enter the House whop 09 Speaker's bell was heard, " Here comes Pitfour, who is never prepot at debate, and never absent at a division."

We have been often struck with the great perse verance, industry, and energy of this gentleman, in fq)mbatitig the powerful oppositiim arrayed against him. The conduct of the Directors also entitles them to bleat praise as public benefactors. The re muneration voted to them by the Proprietors must be regarded in the light of an expression of thankfulness —not as an adequate reward for services, which will yet obtain for them the grateful tribute of a country's esteem and lasting remembrance. FALMOUTH_( WEDNESDAY.) His Majesty's steamer, African, arrived here this morning from the Mediterranean with mails—left Corfu on the 3d of October, Malta on the Bth, and Gibraltar on the 19th inst. The English fleet were at Zante ; the accounts from Greece continue to represent that country as still being in the most unsettled state—the Ministry were not fully formed, and the utmost insubordination existed in many of the provinces, where the brigands were numerously threatening the extermination of the Bavarians. At Athens the epidemic, which had pre vailed there, was rather subsiding. The African, on the 28th, touched at Cadiz, where the general feeling was manifested in a powerful manner in sup port of the present Queen's Ministers at Madrid, end the people throughout Andalusia were resolved to take up arms in aid of the Government, for the purpose of an immediate ter mination of the civil war. The: Governor of Cadiz and In tendant of Customs had suddenly been dismissed from their re spective offices. His Majesty's ships Endyn►ion and Malabar remained at the latter place, and the Childers had proceeded to the south of Spain. SIUPPING,(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYD'S.)

The only feature worth observation in the Funds is the set tling of the Foreign Account, which to the preseut hour is going off well. It is of so trifling a description that no failures are expected, owing to the little credit given in the house. It is surprising to observe the bustle on the Royal Exchange in the rail-road shares, which arc the chief speculation with per sons of various descriptions.

TIIE COMET.—Since passing the Pointers, it has cleared the Great Bear, grazing the hand and head of Bootes, touched the Northern Crown, crossed the shoulder of Hercules, and entered Ophiucus. Ann Gibbs, the wife of a labourer at Storrington, recently accompanied her uncle, an old pensioner, to Arundel, to receive his pay. The pensioner got drunk, and as they were returning over the hills he fell down near Stoke Firs, and could not proceed further. The poor woman, who had a child seven months old in her arms, told her uncle she should proceed, as she wished to get home, and she accord itvly left him about six o'clock. She did not, however, reach her home, but was found dead next morning by shep herds on the hills near Chantry post ; the child lay about four yards from its mother, alive, and was taken care of by the shepherds, An inquest was held on her body on Thurs day, when the jury returned a verdict that she came to her death either from fright or from being exposed on the hills t othe inclemency of the weather. TIIEATRE ROYAL, LIVERPOOL.—The lovers of the legitinfate drama have experienced a splendid treat du ring the past week, in the production of several of Shak speare's magnificent plays, the heroes of which have been personated by the first actor on the British Stage—Mr. Charles Kean. We have paid some attention to the pro fessional career of this gifted individual, from his first outset in public life, and we cannot but express the surprise as well as pleasure which his rapid strides towards greatness in the most difficult of all professions have afforded us, Ardent admirers as we were of the acting of the great man whose name he bears, we were not prepared, we confess, to witness in the person of his son the same transcendent blaze of genius, the same herculean grasp of intellect, and the same profound acquaintance with, and command over, t h e passions of the human heart, which distinguished the career of the late Mr. Kean. But wo have lived to see tho son do what the sire aehievod before him—distance all competitors, and throw the most laboured efforts of the most successful of his contemporaries comparatively into the shade. Of this we are satisfied, that there is not an actor in existence who succeeds to the same extent in identifying himself with the great characters of Shakspeare, which may be considered as the only means by which the genius of an actor can be properly tested. Mr. Kean opened on Mom day night in . Richard 111. , which he sustained with even more than his customary fire and ability. The perform ance throughout was one of great power and brilliancy, ad mirably sustained from the rising of the curtain to his last scene on Bosworth Field. The matchless hypoeriv, the surpassing villany, as well as OW tirl4 o ol . o bravery of the deforrtitni 14§119),Pri wore IT-011g14 put with infinite talent. Kean is iPdPe,ar aeter, 4 t h e ClelY r epresentative of mast trying and difficult cha racter, now on the stage, Thd play is lost to the London boards, from the impossibility of any other living actor being able . to do it justice. We cannot stop to particularize the various gems which sparkled so abundantly throughout the performance, but it struck us ; that the oily dissimulation in the nclu with i4;411 :444 . 440 was never rhore rich i n effect than when we la s t witnessed it. The tent scene was great, and elicited the most en thusiastic applause. The death was a noble sequel to the splendid efforts which preceded it. Kean received at its close, as he richly merited, the warm and hearty plaudits of the house,—Liverrol Parer. -- CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. 4- (THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. William Owen, was indicted for stealing on the 17th of October, a mare, the property of William Penny►nore, cow•keeper, of Hackney. The prosecutor stated that on the 16th of October he sent his man to turn his mare into the Hackney Marshes. On going to look after her on the morning of the 17th, she was not to be seen. Witness examined the fectmarks round tae Marshes, and followed her to Lee Bridge. He published the loss in the Hue and .Cry, and in consequence received a letter from Bedfordshire. He went down to the Swan Inn, Packham, Bedfordshire, on the 24th, and there found his mare in the stable. It was given up to him on the following day. He had had her in his possession for three years. Her value was 25/. Richard Freeman, prosecutor's servant, deposed that he turned out the mate on the afternoon of the 16th, and fas tened the gate. Next morning the fastening was undone, and the mare gone. She was of a dark brown colour. John Fyler, landlord of the Swan Inn, Packham, said the mare owned by the prosecutor was brought to his yard by the prisoner. He said he brought her from Philimore's stables, in Long-lane. He said Mr. Phili more was his master, and he was taking her to a man named Lee, about four miles beyond Packham. The mare was put into the stable about half-past six o'clock— the prisoner went to bed. In the morning he got up and was going away with the mare, when witness said he must detain him for a short time, till he had consulted a gentle man he had seen the night before. Mr. Baize arrived, and asked him some questions, but he could not say what they were. The prisoner was detained all that day, and taken before a Magistrate next day, who committed him till the following Saturday. On that day the prosecutor arrived, and identified the mare as his property. Mr. John Baize, a solicitor of Packham, was sent for by the last witness. He went to his house and saw the pri soner, to whom he put several questions. He told witness that he bought the mare of a Mr. Jones of Epping, and rode her to London, and Mr. Philimore, his master, sent him down to " old Sale "of Abberly with her. He wanted to go to " Sale's." Witness said he would leave him there, and go himself. Prisoner said his name was " Owen," but he was called Bill Lowens. If " Sale " was told, he would come and clear him. " Sale" came over at 3 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and the prisoner and him being together, Sale said he could have nothing to do with the matter—where could the prisoner get 251. to pay for the mare? The prisoner in his defence said he bought the mare for 201., at a public house. He had no witnesses, as he did not know any one who was present. His LORDSHIP shortly summed up, and the Jury found him Guilty. John Wale was indicted for attempting to shoot Thos. Hughes with a pistol, on the 12th inst. He was further charged with intending to do the said Thomas Hughes some grievous bodily harm. Thomas Hughes was clerk to Robins and Co., of Pad dington. The prisoner had been in Messrs. Robins' em ployment near 15 years, and had been discharged for drunkenness and bad cond uc t a f ew wee k s ago . On the 12th inst. witness was in the stable of the next wharf, when Wale came in and said, " Hughes you have done me an in jury." Witness said he had done himself the injury. The prisoner immediately took a pistol from under his coat, presented it at his head, and pulled the trigger. It flashed in the pan, and Mr. Meredith, who was present, wrested it from him. He then said he intended to shoot witness ;he would ra• ther be hung than starve. The police were sent for, ano,:h e was given in charge. It was in consequence of witnew s re presentations that he was discharged. He had een very drunken for the last four years. Cross-examined by Mr. CLARKSON—He had been in Messrs. Robins employ five and a half yeKrs. Four years ago lie had occasion to complain of him. He of course had the same opportunity of hurting him for ten days pre vious to the day in question. He was sober on those days, and was on the wharf every day. He was not. sober on the 12th, though he was not actually drunk. He had been cap tain of a barge. Mr. Thomas Meredith, with was with Mr. Hughes in the stable, gave a similar tccount of the transaction. Police Constable Francis Partridge was called into the stable-yard, anfl took the prisoner into custody on the charge of attempting to shoot Mr. Hughes. He drew the charge of the pistol, and found it to consist of powder and shot. Cross-examined.—The shot was called spin-shot. He thought it would have perforated a man's coat and waist coat. As it was loaded it would have perforated the dis tance of eight or nine yards. The pistol was made for ball. The prisoner was in a very excited state, and it was easily seen he was much the worse for liquor, so much so as not to be fit to go before the Magistrate till the evening. He had learned that he was a married man and had nine children. The prisoner said he was so drunk that he did not know what he was doing. Mr. Justice VAUGIIAN summed up, and the Jury re turned a verdict of Guilty of an intent to do some grievous bodily harm, at the same time recommending the prisoner to mercy on account of his long services. Tho prosecutor joined in the recommendation to mercy. NEW COURT. John Selby was indicted for having in his possession two pieces of counterfeit money. A witness named Pugh went into the George public house in \Vhitecross-street, and saw a number of persons in the tap-room. He took the prisoner into custody, and found the coin now produced upon his person, which Mr. Field of the Mint pronounced to be counterfeit.— Guilty. Anne Williams was indicted fur having a quantity of coin ,in her possession. The prisoner was apprehended at the same time and place as the last prisoner. —Guilty. Thomas Nunn alias Elliott was indicted for having in his possession seven crowns, nineteen half-crowns, and sixty five shillings, knowing the same to be counterfeit. The prisoner was also one of the gang taken at the pub lie house in Whitecross-street, and the evidence in his case was similar. Mr. Sergeant ARABIN—Have you got any witnesses to give you a character ? Prisoner—Plenty, my Lord, but they are all bad characters.—(Laughter.)—Guilty. The three prisoners, Seely, Williams, and Nunn, having boen placed at the bar, Sergeant ARABIN said there was .no doubt on the mind of any unprejudiced person of their guilt. They had been found in company with thirteen other persons, all, no doubt, congregated for the purpose of distributing counterfeit money among the poorer classes, who could ill afford to be so defrauded. The quantity of base coin found on the three prisoners amounted to not less than 9 crowns, 23 half-crowns, and 140 shil lings, and many persons whom it had been the painful duty of the Court to sentence to transportation, little deserved it as compared with them. The Court would, however, inflict the severest punishment the law allowed, by sentencing each of them to three years' imprisonment and hard labour in the House of Correction. John Spring was indicted for uttering a counterfeit shil ling—Guilty, sentenced to twelve months imprisonment. Jos. Barker, 68, and George Alexander, 20, were in 4icted for stealing three pair of boots and other articles, the property Of their master, Henry Messenger, and a waist coat, sheets, and handkerchiefs, the property of Mark Richard Clarke—Guilty, to be transported for seven years.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE. The lotg-talked-of Opera, The Siege of I?ochelle,by gr. Balfc, win produced last night, with great and deserved success. The subject is taken from a novel by Madame de Geniis, and has been treated in a masterly manner as a° opera by Ricci, an Italian composer of some eminence. There is no doubt that Mr. Balfe had the advantage of witnessing Ricci's opera in Italy, for many of the scenes are fae-similes in the Clari de Rosenberg, by which name the opera was there designated. This we mention, not for the purpose of accusing Mr. Balfe of a plagiarism of Ricci, but to spew the tact of a shrewd mind in dis cerning many beauties, which he has afterwards so much Unproved, as to leave at a considerable distance behind him the original model. The drama, or rather the sketch of a drama, on which the opera is founded, is a very happy sub ject for music, and if Mr. Balfe has not treated it with much depth and profound learning, he has scattered throughout such a sprinkling of brilliant gems—such a sparkling variety of happy melody—that he takes the soul captive before the judgment can be brought to bear upon its merits. The style of the music is between Auber and Marliani—the one celebrated for original melody and strong dramatic effect, the other for much delicad and refinement. Like Auber, Mr. Balfe keeps o °,, moving —never losing an instant f or a di s play 0' his wit in melody, and showing his epigrammatic pro pensities in boundless profusion. Like Marliani, be t . sometimes conceives' a delicate sentiment, ge t s tired 01 it, bounces off in an off-hand slap-dash style, returns to the sentiment again, and concludes amidst a din of braze° trumpets and drums. But it is time to give the plot : the Marquis de Vizlmour, (Wilson) a widower in love with Clara, (Miss Shirreff) has lost an infant son by th e h a nd o' , an assassin, the suspicion of whose murder is attached to Clara, the body of the child having been discovered in be r arms, and the dagger beside her. She protests her innu cence, but is withheld from namips, the murderer by an oath which she has imposed on hie, under the idea that be is her father. This villain Montalban (Giubilei) pursues her with the intention of de . .itroying her, and thus preserve his secret ; but she is rescued by the interference of 11 / 3 " chel (Phillips) the servant of Count Rosenburg(Segv;i l h) _Michel discovers the real murderer by overhearing awls reproaching him with the deed. Montalban betrays Count Rosenberg to the enemy, and during the quarrel whir" ensues between them, Clara, who is in concealment nea r the spot, discovers that Rosenberg is her father, and imme diately rushes forward and declares that MontaPian is ttle assassin. Clara's i nnocence b e i ng prove d, r a i ntoto ' of course claims her as his bride, and all parties, in such cases made and provided, are forthwith rende► ed superlative l Y, happy. Phillips's part of Michel is an a t temp t—asa we beg to say a very su ccess f u l atter,pt—to fix a con ic style of singing on the English str.ge, above buffoonerY . All our comic songs are notoriousi- 1 low—they all smack of the gin-shop or pot-house. If Mr. Balfc had no other merit beside raising this char ac t er of song from its de graded condition, he ought to receive the thanks of t he public at large. Phillir s's first song, " Travellers all 0r : every nation," will IK;nr_eforth be the English ~ L ar go a' factotum," and the. duet between Marcella and him, shod in happy melody the luxury of a husband's uxoriousne ss, and, in that fool, the archness of a wife's connubial bliss' The chorus of soldiers and peasants, " Vive le Roi," standsas prota . me,ntly forward in the opera as does the well-know!' in William Tell. Not less than a third rePe tr tion 'would satisfy the audience. The chorus also at the uu?., of the first act was worthily conceived, and strange to "say, it was well executed. Of the more sentimental par' of the Opera we cannot speak so highly. Herein the oar poser is frequently vapid, dull, and unmeaning. We Oil he wrote some of these prosy -bars in a foggy morning was not written under an Italian sky, we will be swe ll ' . Neither is his recitative always happy : it is often cow less and inappropriate. As for instance in the ter zetto at the bottom of page 20 in th e b oo k, wberl. Rosenberg tells his servant Michel to obey th e o rders ° Afontalban, Michel, instead of re plyi ng , i ns t an tly e lle:. the cud of reflection for the space of about twenty bars ° symphony, and then replies, " I shall do, Sir, as you requir me ;" and in the same terzetto, where reflection was rail, required, the dialogue goes on with a rapidity sadly t variance with the sense. We shall most likely take another, opportunity of showing, more at length, the various beaue.e: and demerits of this Opera ; for th ere are pl en ty of 10, most incongruously mingled. For th e p resen t, we strove advise Mr. Balfe to write another finale to the second 0 ' Here we ought to have a most triumphant and baPPC melody ; instead of which, it is one full of the inspiratl° of blue-devils. On the whole, the Opera, we think, is ne t destined to immortality, but it will take its rank, and live (and die) by the side of the Puritani of Bellini„ It is well worth the four hundred guineas which Messrs, Cram er gave for it ; although the purchase, before it was performe d, skews a generous enterprise in that firm, not often to b e met with in the fraternity of music-sellers. QUEEN'S THEATRE. - _ The promised domestic drama of The Chelsea Pension. was produced last night, and its 'Access was as decisive and unequivocal as the author (Mz. Soane i we believe) co uld l have either expected or dAred. It is full of deep and stirring interest. The i - ACid'o.nts are not only numeroto, .but affecting, and the sieuatons are so'contrived as to rely der them in the higheit /degree picturesque.
