We have received highly-important news fr-n China and India. At the expense of five men killed and thirty wounded, our gallant troops in China have retaken Chusan, with its capital Chinghae and Ningpo. We have to deplore an insurrection in Cabool, in which the gallant Sir Alexander Burnes, the British Envoy, Lieut. Burnes, his brother, Captains Swayne, Robinson, Codrington, Paton, and Spottiswoode, Major Thain, Lieutenants Raban and Rattray, and Ensigns Salisbury and Gordon, were all killed. There is a report that the Prince de Joinville proposes to visit England, to study the application of steam to the navigation of line-of-battle ships. There was a: rumour that the Government proposed to confer on his Royal Highness the rank of Rear - Admiral. Ti e hereditary Prince of Saxe Coburg, who was betrothed om the 28th of January last, to the Princess Alexandrine, eldest daughter of the Grand Duke of Bordeaux, is twenty .three years of age, and his bride twenty-one. The King of Prussia arrived at the Palace of Lacken at a quar ter before two o'clock on Saturday, where he was received by the King and Queen of the Belgians. The traits had left Ostend at a quarter before 10 o'clock. A dejeune was ready for 32 persons on the King's arrival. The last Leipsic fair is stated to have been an unusually good one, the rail-roads having contributed to bring thither an in creased number of dealers. Many merchants from the East arrived during the first fortnight of last month. A good deal of wool was purchased for Spain, and skins for Poland. English cottons sold well and freely. Cloths, too, were much i►► demand. The christening of the Prince of Wales has excited great in terest at Gotha. The Duchess Dowager who is great grandmother, and one of the Sponsors to his Royal Highness, has given a grand entertainmeut to the reigning Duke and his Consort, Duke Ernest of Wurtemberg, Prince Henry LX 11. of Reuss-Schleiz, and his Princess, and other distinguished personages, who, in the evening, honoured a brilliant Ridotta at the Theatre with their presence. On the 26th ult., the hereditary Prince of Gotha set out for Brus sels on a visit to that Court. PUBLIC OPINION. The Times makes mention of a pamphlet supposed to be written by General Cass, the American Minister at Paris, on the subject of the right of search, which pamphlet our Contemporary describes " as a shrewd performance, written with some spirit, and a very au dacious unfairness of argument." The Herald hints a sort of gentle and qualified dissatisfaction with Ministers, observing " that the amendment of the Corn-law is to be made the stalking-horse—the clieval de batatile of the Session. The people suffer, and all that Government proposes to do for the removal of that suffering is, it is anticipated, to increase the impor tations of foreign corn !" The Post eulogises the present Government in its most honied style, and expresses its opinion that the present Ministers would have amended the Corn-law, whether the question had been agi tated by the late Ministers or not. The Chronicle thus alludes to the promised Law Reforms by Mi nisters :—" We can hardly be expected to admit that they are better law.reformers than their predecessors, merely for promising what the latter promised, until we see that they excel them in perform. MC NZY—TRADE—C OM ME It C E. A. single Hastings boat, one day last week, caught, of Ply. mouth, 13,000 mackerel, which re a li s ed i n th e L on d on mar k et 130/. During the present month three important railway openings • take place. On the 7th (to.day) the Gosport Junction is opeued for passenger traffic; on the 10th, the Birmingham and Derby new entrance to Birmingham ; and, on the 17th, the Edinburgh and Glasgow line. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Ridge and Co., bankers, took place last week at Chichester, when the whole of the affairs were left to the discrei ion of the assignees. ECCLESZASTICILL. One of the places complained of in the parish of Marylebone, as being infested with Puseyism, is St. Margaret's Chapel. A cross at the present minute appears over the communion table, two or three feet in height: candles and candlesticks of the same height are on each side of it : the Minister's looks bear the cross, and many of the prayers and the Communion-service is addressed to wards the same object. Lord AIIINGIIR observed that the case was certainly well sus. rained, and it would require very strong evidence to defeat it. Sir FREDERICK POLLOCK (with whom was Mr. Platt) admitted the justice of the assertion. He had some evidence to adduce in in favour of the defendants, but it was not certainly so strong as that produced by the plaintiffs. He had not been aware what the nature of that evidence would have been, as he had not had access to the City entry books. _ . After a short conversation among Counsel, the case for the de fendahts was abandoned, and the Jury found a verdict for the plaintiffs. NAVAL AND MILITARY. The examination of candidates for admission as Gentlemen Cadets at the Royal Military Aeademy, Woolwich, takes place to-day INSOLVENT COURT-THIS DAY. LAW AND POLICE. The claim of Mr. Carew of 19,000/. on the executors of the Earl of Egremont, resisted by them on the ground that there is no foundation for the allegation, and that the insolvent is indebted to the Earl's estate, after being further argued upon by Mr. Platt and Mr. Cooke, was again adjourned to Wednesday, the 16th of March next. SP OnTING. The Royal staghounds hunted in Surrey on Saturday, when the favourite Scotch'deer " Percy" led the run, followed by one hun dred sportsmen. On passing over the bridge near the Farnborough Railway station, it leapt the parapet, and falling a depth of nearly 100 feet broke its neck. Lord Rosslyn endeavoured to ascertain the party who headed the stag, and caused it to spring over, but without success. C OURT-r.asH/ONAIIMM. The Duke of Cleveland left town on Saturday for Raby Castle, Durham. The Duke of Newcastle left Portman-square last week for Clum, ber Park. The Earl of Chesterfield arrived in town on Saturday, from Bretby Park. The Earl of Minto and Lord Melgund have arrived at Farranee's Hotel, from Minto House. Viscount and Viscountess Beresford have arrived in Cavendish square. Viscount Melbourne gave a grand dinner-party on Saturday evening. Lord Stanley had a dinner party on Saturday. Lord Ashburton leaves Bath House this morning to embark far America. MISCELLANEOUS. The head of the Catholic Church on earth, Gregory XVI., is a teetotaller, and wears the medal of the Cork Total Abstinence So ciety.

This was an action brought by Mr. Bray, the plaintiff, who is a grocer, to recover damages from the defendant, a medical man, re siding in Great Marlborough-street, for an assault. Mr. Jarvis and Mr. Chadwick Jones conducted the case of the plaintiff, and Mr. Thesiger appeared for the defendant. It appeared from the evidence of plaintiff's witnesses that the defendant's mother was indebted to the plaintiff in the sum of 81., that the plaintiff had gone to defendant's house to ask for her address ; that the defendant, who was at dinner with some friends, was called out, and told the plaintiff th:it lie knew nothing of his mother's address, at the same time ordering him to leave the house, which plaintiff was about to do, and was going to take his hat off a form when defendant knocked plaintiff down, and turned him out of the house, in doing which his hand was cut. Mr. Tnesioen, for the defendant, contended that no more vio lence had been used than was necessary to turn :the plaintiff out of defendant's house, and that therefore the verdict of the Jury must be for defendant, as he had a pet feet right to turn plaintiff out of his house if he refused to go on being desired so to do. It appeared that defendant and his mother were not on friendly terms. The Learned Gentleman then read a letter from the plaintiff's attorney, offering to compromise the action, if defendant would pay his mo. ther's debt, pay plaintiff the sum of 2/., and the attorney his costs. This defendant refused to do, as he felt that the whole affair had been greatly exaggerated. Defendant's witnesses swore that Mr. Courteney never struck Mr. Bray at all, but that Bray followed defendant to his dining room, after defendant had desired him to go ; on which defendant seized plaintiff by the collar, and swung him out of the•deor. It was distinctly denied that defendant struck him. Mr. JAavts replied. Lord DENMAN summed up, and said if defendant had desired plaintiff to leave the house, and he had refused to do so, he would be justified in laying hands on him to do so ; but he would not be justified in knocking him down. Mr. JERVis submitted that the declaration charged plaintiff with wounding defendant, and that had not been justified by the p:ea, and therefore the verdict must be for the plaintiff, as plaintiff's witnesses proved that plaintiff's hand was cut, consequently there was a wound. Mr. TORSIGER submitted to the Court that the declaration was met by the general plea, not guilty. Lord DENMAN apprehended not. The other acts were specially justified, and the wounding ought to have been justified also. The Jury returned a verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages, 101. EXCHEQUER -(THIS DAY.) THE COMMISSIONERS OF LAND.TAX FOR TRH CITY OF LONDON V. THE COMMISSIONERS OF LAND•TAX FOR THE BOROUGH OF SOUTH. WARE. This suit was instituted for the purpose of ascertaining, under a statute of the lit of Victoria, whether certain premises on the Southwark side of the Theses were within the jurisdic tion of the Commissioners of Land-tax for the City or the Com missioners for the Borough. The premises were formerly the site of six houses immediately adjoining Old London-bridge, and were now occupied by Fenning's Wharf. The case bad pre viously come before the Court, and it was then directed that the issue should be tried by a Jury. Sir WILLIAM FoLLErr (with whom was Mr. Erle) stated the case for the plaintiffs. The Learned Gentleman then called several witnesses, who deposed that the premises had been always consi dered, as far as their knowledge extended, to form part of the City of London. The entry-books of the City were produced by the clerk, from which it appeared that the occupiers of the six houses in question had, since the year 1760, regularly paid the taxes to the Commissioners of the City. They had also voted for Com. mon Councilmen, and were universally considered as forming part of the Bridge Ward. Two of the former occupiers ot these houses confirmed the accuracy of these records. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, FEB THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The arrivals last week of Barley and Oats were good, but moderate of other grain. The fresh supplies were moderate of Wheat, Beans, and Peas, but good of Barley and Oats. The expected details of the alteration in the Corn-laws made our buyers very indifferent about purchasing. Wheat sold very slowly at last week's prices. Baxley, Beans, and Peas unva ried. Oats a heavy trade at their former value. In Flour very little done.

The insolvent's discharge was opposed by Mr. Cooke, on behalf of Messrs. Robert Currie and Richard Earle Warwick, who were landlords of some certain premises held by him. Having consented to give up possession, the Court, with the con. sent of the Learned Counsel for the opposing creditors, ordered his discharge upon his giving two days' notice subsequent to Messrs. Currie and Warwick receiving possession. IN THE MATTER OF JAMES SCALES. The insolvent had been a job and cab master, and was opposed by Mr. Woodroffe on behalf of Sir Henry Richards. It appeared that he had rented some;premises in Carburtt n-street, Fitzroy.square, under Sir Henry, and having fallen into arrear of rent, the property, consisting of cabs, horses, stabling, and furni ture, were removed, when an action wet brought, as the insolvent had refused to surrender possession of the premises, and judgment was allowed to go by default. The chief grounds of opposition were, that at the time the action was brought the sum of 401. alone was due, and before its termination the rent owing accurnu. lated to upwards of 150/.,and also that he had neglected to file the lease and keys of the premises in Court. Mr. Commissioner BowEN said it was much to be reprobated in insolvent circumstances like the present one, the retaining pos session: of premises, when it could neither be of use to themselves nor to the landlord, and in all such cases the Court was determined to inflict a proportionate punishment. The sentence of the Court, therefore, was that the insolvent be remanded for nine calendar months from the date of his vesting order. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY OLD COURT• Archibald Leslie, whose case was reported last week, and who was convicted of obtaining goods and money by means of false re presentations and forged documents, was brought up today for judgment. The RECORDER said th At a more aggravated case than the one before hitin had never come under his notice. The sentence of the Court was, that he should be transported for seven years. John Gannie was charged with embezzling and stealing the sum of l/. 3s. Bd., the property of Mrs. Maxton, his mistress. It appeared from the evidence adduced, that the prosecutrix kept a baker's shop in Spencer street, Clerkenwell, and on the 25th and 26th of January last, the prisoner was sent out with bills to col.. lect. He accounted for some part of the money he received, but did not mention having received the sum stated in the indictment. On the next day he absconded, and was apprehended in his fa ther's house. The Jun found the prisoner Guilty, and The COURT sentenced him to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. NEW COURT. FRAUD ON LORD STANLEY.—WiIIiam Esworthy, aged 26, a person of respectable exterior, was charged with obtaining, on the 27th of December last, the sum of Si. 4s. sd. from Thomas Dods worth, with intent to defraud him thereof. Messrs. CLARKSON and BODKIN conducted the prosecution, and Mr. PAYNE appeared on behalf of the prisoner. Mr. CLARKSON briefly stated the case to the Jury, and called Emma Norman, who stated that she was servant to Mr. Dods. worth, the officer and storekeeper at the Colonial Office, Downing.st. On the 27th Dec. the prisoner brought a box to the office, wrapped up in matting, addressed " The Right Honourable Lord Stanley." He stated that there was Si. 4s. sd. to pay on it, and presented some printed papers to that effect. He said further the box contained a chandelier sent to Lord Stanley, by the Right HOD. James Alex. Stewart M`Kenzie, Governor of the lonian Islands. Witness saw the prisoner again four days after, in Thames.street ; did not know him at first, but when his hat was removed, immediately recognised hint to be the man who had brought the box and received the mo_ ney. Witness had no doubt that the prisoner was the et-- . Niro brought the Lox ; never doubted it after his hat was rely Eliza Wray, a fellow -servant of the last witness,cal her evidence ; was in the hall with the prisoner for ten IQ it and had no doubt as to his identity. W. Dodsworth examincd—l am office and store: e e tthe Colonial-office, Downing street. On the 27th of Dee iwas informed that a person had brought a box to the rffice, I tto Lord Stanley. Paid him 31. 4s. sd, for it. Believe the , r , ,oner to be the person who brought the box, and received the money. Cross examined by Mr. PAYNE—It is my duty to take in all parcels left for Lord Stanley, and to pay the demands for carriage or porterage. Sent the box to Lord Stanley's private residence. The butler to Lord Stanley proved the opening of the box ; it contained nothing but .stones carefully wrapped in straw; lie thought it was a funny chandelier. —(A laugh ) A custom.house officer examined the receipts and papers left by the prisoner. Such papers were used at the Custcm.house, but never for so small an amount. William Cook, a polica.constable stated, that in company with Emma Norman, the first witness, he apprehended the prisoner, in Thames street. Witness showed prisoner the papers before re. ferred to, but he denied all knowledge of them, and stated that so far from ever having been at the Colonial. office, he d:d not even know where the Colonial office was; he was at the Ship Tavern, Water.lane, the whole of the evening in question, playing at cards and drinking. Thomas Warren, coachman to Lady Hope, of Park-street, Westminster, stated that on the evening of the 27th of Septenber the prisoner called at her Ladyship's residence with a box for Mrs. M`Kenzie, a friend of Lady Hope's, and demanded 31. 4s. sd. for carriage. Her Ladyship, however, desired the prisoner to leave the box till she could examine it, and call again for the money. This the prisoner refused to do, and he went away, taking- the box with him. The landlord of the Ship Tavern, and a foreign waiter at that house, appeared to negative the prisoner's assertion relative to his having been there on the night in question. A gentleman from the Government office produced a copy of the appointment of the Right Hon. James Alexander Stewart M'Ken zie to the Governorship of the lonian Islands; and another wit ness, residing in the house of the noble prosecutor, stated his Lordehip's:style, title, and dignity to be" The Right Hon. Edward Geoffrey Smith, commonly called Lerd Stanley." Mr. PAYNE addressed the Jury at considerable length on behalf of the prisoner, and submitted that this was entirely a question of identity; he should call several witnesses, who would prove that the prisoner was otherwise engaged on the evening in question, and who would state where he was during the whole of that night. Mr. Payne then called five or six witnesses on the part of the pri soner to prove an alibi, but no one was forthcoming. The COMMON SEUGRANT briefly summed up. There could be no doubt as to the identity of the prisoner; the evidence, he thought, was quite conclusive. The Jury at once found the prisoner Guilty, and the Court sen enced him to be transported beyond sea for the term of seven years. MARCH OF THE FOOT GUARDS THIS DAY. —This morning, at half-past ten o'clock, several hundreds of the Foot Guards, preceded by their band, marched from their barracks over Waterloo-Bridge, on their way to Brighton, via the Railway terminus at London B:idge. Many of them were young men, but from their soldierlike appearance reflected the highest credit on the corps to which they belong. BIRTHS EXTRAORDINARY.—At Aylesbury, en the Ist instant, Jane, wife of Daniel Jacock, shoemaker, Castle-street, of twin daughters. This being the fifth time of her giving birth to twins, and six single children, seven of the twins are now living and three of the others; four of the former are under two years of age, who with their mother are likely to do well.

The South erner, Captain Palmer, which sailed from New York on the 10th ult., arrived at Liverpool last night. The packet-ship, Stephen Whitney, was to sail next day. In the Senate, on the 10th ult., Mr. Calhoun of fered a resolution, calling for information in regard to the case of the murder and mutiny on board of the Creole, and asking what steps the Exe cutive had taken in reference to the transaction, having for its object the punishment of the guilty, the redress of the wrong done to American citizens, and the insult offered to the American flag. On the 11th the resolution was taken up for consideration. Some debate having arisen on the proosal of an amendment to substitute " persons" for " slaves," Mr. Calhoun condemned publications which had applauded and justified the mutiny and murder, the tendency and ob ject of which were to fortify the pretensions of Great Britain in hostility to the rights of the from th e i r lethar gy, an d to guard against combi- United St a t es . He warned the south to awaken nations ever menacing th e i r i ns ti tut i ons . Se veral gentl emen h aving delivered their sentiments on the subject, Mr. Clay rose to deliver his. lie had, he said, witnessed the occurrence on board the Creole with deep regret, because it added infinitely to existing difficulties with Great Britain. A case had occurred, in which by mutiny and murder a ves sel was thrown in the power of Great Britain ; were they to give up the murderers, or to indemnify the United States or not ? If not, then Americans were denied the freedom of their own coasting trade, and no vessels could sail from one port to another in the southern Atlantic border without incurring the risk of seizure. He hoped that Great Britain would see the necessity of doing America justice in this case. Mr. Calhoun's resolution was adopted rem con. The latest advices from Washington stated, that the Bankrupt Act would not be repealed "at present." A draught, drawn by Mr. Everett, the American Minister at the Court of St. James's, for 12,000 dol., negotiated in London, has been protested at Wash-. ington for non-payment, the department having nothing to offer but Treasury notes, and not feeling at liberty to pay them except at par. Resolutions were before the Legislature of the State of New York strongly condemning_ the doctrine of repudiation of debts, as sanctioned by and acted upon by several States. "We now," says the Journal of Commerce, " breathe more freely that we discover an honest purpose on the part of our fellow-countryme n not to turn swindlers and knaves." The Legislature of Penn sylvania had agreed to resolutions also strongly condemnatory of the infamous repudiation doctrine. The packet ship, George Washington, from Liver pool, arrived at New York on the 12th ult. The stock, money, and produce markets, had not undergone any material change. The rate of ex• change on London continued the same. STOPPAGE OF THE ISLE OF WIG HT BANKING ESTABLI SHMENT. (FROM a CORRESPO NDENT.) NEWPORT, I SLE OF WIGHT, rex• S.—Thi s hi g h ly respectable and old establi s h e d fi rm stopped payment at one o ' c l oc k this day, and filled this town with consternation, there being no run upon it. There is no doubt but the malicious reports circulated to the dis. credit of Sir R. Bassett and Co.'s bank, and the consequent run upon it, also injured the Messrs. Kirkpatrick's circulation, and caused many of the deposits to be withdrawn ; still their credit stood very high, and their stoppage must ruin many and injnre hundreds. Their principal circulation was in Newport and Ryde. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) EWPORT, ISLE W WIGHT, JULY 6.--This town V 715 thrown into the greatest consternation, yesterday, by the stoppage of the old established bank of Messrs. Kirkpatrick and Co. It uppears to have taken place in consequence of Messrs. Rogers and Co., their London agents, not honouring their orders t o pay the acceptances &c., due in London on the 4th, of which th ey say they had not if so, tradesm en are in nice hands. t r ; s as to the ulti mate loss ; some say they t N h 'a e ri o s u li s gl a i t r e e s the int i will be able to pay in full, others that th ere will not be fire shil lings in the pound. It looks bad their stopping in the absence of any rnn upon them : a good man may be run to a stand still, and stop, but when a man falls NI about any visible cause it looks :as if there was something weak about his constitution. The Messrs. Kirkpatrick have been always close men of business, living at no expense, with a high character for honourable deal ings, but they have met with many losses, not by speculations, but by over.confldence in parties doing business wish them. Their principal circulation was in Newport and Ryde, at which latter place they had a branch bank, but the number of failures lately has very much contracted their issues of paper. Quite a panic prevails, to stop the consequences of which a notice has been posted, signed by Sir It. Simeon, Bart., G. H. Ward, Esq., Mr. John Cooke, Mr. E. Way, and fitly other landowners, merchants, and tradesmen, expressing their confidence in the banking establishment of Sir R. Bassett, and Co., and their willingness to take their notes as cash. This ought to restore confidence, the above four names only standing like as many hundred thousand pounds, but people are so frightened that no thing but gold or Bank of England notes will do for them now. Their liabilities in Cowes do not exceed six thousand pounds, but they are very heavy in other parts of the island, LLOYD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY. LONDON, FEB. 7.—Wind this day at noon E. to S. E.

THE SHEFFIELD AND GRINIBSBY RAIL WAY.—A correspondent informs us that it is in contemplation to make a railway from Grimsby to Sheffield, to communicate with the Manchester and Sheffield Railway ; this will shorten the route from Liverpool to Grimsby upwards of 30 miles.— Hull Advertiser. UARY 7,184 k. THEATRE ROYAL, DRURY LANE, Mr. Macready having succeeded, in the main object of his plan, the revival on the boards of this theatre of the national drama, commenced on Saturday his " endeavour to establish upon the English stage the works of the greatest composers of the English school of music," by the revival of Ads and Galatea. The serenata of Acis and Galatea, with the music of which, by Handel, most of our readers must have a familiax: acquaintanbe from its frequent performance' at con certs and mu.* meetings, was originally produced in 1732, and we will confess that in seeing the announce ment of this opera, (not divided into acts) in the bills, we were somewhat fearful for the result. It is true the poetry, which is' by Gay, is infinitely superior to the general run of opera libretti, but the days of the gods and goddesses are over—Cupid has now no abiding place save in the regions of burlesque, and modern audiences take no interest in the weal or woe of Arcadian shepherds. We were most agree ably surprised to find our anxions forebodings were needless. The piece was completely and most de servedly successful, but it owes its success solely to the manner in which Mr. Macready and his assistants have taken advantage of the time and place in which the scene is laid, to give us a series of beautifully classic illustrations of Sicilian pastoral life in the my thological ages. A visit to Drury-lane Theatre will give the student of Theocritus a greater insight into the meaning of his author, and a far keener relish of his beauties, than he can ever attain by poring over all the books of all the commentators that have ever written on Greek and Roman antiquities. The scenic illustrations are from the pencil of Clark son Stanfield, R.A., and we are glad to see this great artist not unmindful of the place in which he laid the foundation of his well-earned fame, coming forward to render his assistance in raising Old Drury from the dust. On the crimson curtain being drawn aside what is called, in the programme of the scenery, The Frontispiece, for the performance of the overture, is discovered. This is a splendid drop scene, painted by Stanfield, and consisting of three pictures ; Ist, Gala tea rising from the sea, from Annibal Caracci ; 2d, Polyphemus on the rock, with Fauns and Nymphs, from Nicolas Poussin ; and, 3d, the flight of Acis and Galatea from the Cyclops, from Annibal Caracci. The first scene in the opera is a grotto on the coast of Sicily, by moonlight, with a view of Etna in the distance. This is one of those exquisite sea views, in the delineation of which Stanfield stands unrivalled. The effect of the back ground is superb. We hope that this beautiful design will be rescued from the destruction which must inevitably await it as a mere piece of scene-painting; if Mr. Stanfield has not already transferred it to canvass in some more durable form, we trust he will lose no time in doing so. It would be a source of regret to every lover of art that this gem should not be preserved. In this scene there is a most ingenious piece of mechanism exhibited : the billows, glittering in the moonlight, rush up the beach, and break with that roaring sound, and that foaming crest,which are so delightful to every lover of the sea, and then recede with that peculiar gurgling sound which is always produced by breakers on a pebbly beach. This is something perfectly novel in the way of scenic illusion, and elicited frequent bursts of applau'Se. The next scene represents a view from a vineyard, with Etna in ,the distance, and, as a work of art, is as worthy of admiration as the preceding scene. The festivities in honour of Pan take place in this scene, and advantage is taken of these festivities to give a series of classical groupings, which, inde pendently of their beauty as tableaux, are, as illustrations of the classical pastoral poets, worthy of all praise for their minute accuracy. In the neat scene, which is a pine forest, we have another beautiful series of classical groupings, among which we must particularise the tableau formed by the af frighted peasantry on hearing Polyphemus roaring in the distance, as one of the most picturesque massings ever exhibiied on the stage. 'The last scene repre sents the coast of Sicily, and in this scene Polyphemus hurls the rock upon Acis, and the transformation o Le latter into a fountain, takes place. Generally speaking, these transformations are rather dangerous matters to attempt, they either fail from inefficiency, or approach so nearly to pantomime, as to become bur lesque. In the present instance, however, the happy medium was hit exactly, and nothing could exceed the beauty of the effect produced by the appearance of the fountain bubbling from the rock, falling in a graceful cascade down the precipice, and meandering through the valley to the sea. The part of Galate a was sustained by Miss Romer, who would succeed better if she would sing no more than is set down for her in the score. Handel does not need, nor will he bear, ornamenting at the hands of those who execute h s music. Miss P. Horton, as Acis, sang and acted beautifully ' • she is imbued with the true liandelian spirit, and hers was evidently a labour of love. Phillips did not make as much of Polyphemus as we expected ; his dressing of the character was also somewhat too grotesque. G. Bennett, whose dressing of Caliban was a model for characters of this sort, could give him some useful hints on this point. Mr. Allen was the Damon, and we know of no tenor singer who has made such rapid advances in the career of improvement as this gentleman. He is an example of what taste and application can accomplish, and, let him go on as he has begun, he will soon distance all competitors. His " Would you use the tender crea ture" was given with all the skill, taste, and sweetness of a most accomplished artist, and was loudly ap plauded. Great credit is due to Mr. T. Cooke, for the manner in which he has managed the orchestral arrangements. They are distinguished for the utter absence of everything like self-seeking, Mr. Cooke having throughout paid the most religious regard to the intentions of the mighty master. The choruses also were admirably managed, not only as regarded singing, but acting also, every individual taking a part in the scene. Macready was loudly called for at the fall of the curtain, and on his appearance announced the piece for repetition three times a week, amidst the loudest applause. Miss P. Horton and Miss Romer were also called for, and cordially greeted by the audience. The house was very well filled. BRIGHTON-SUNDAY. The numerous workmen employed at the Pavilion are engaged night and day in preparing it for the Royal visitors, who purpose arriving on Wednesday next. Yesterday Mr. Somers Clarke, the Vestry Clerk, re ceived the following letter from the Earl Delawarr:— " Lord Chamberlain's Office, Feb. 4, 1842. " Sir,—The Queen will arrive at Brighton on the 9th inst., and although it is her Majesty's wish to enjoy as much privacy as possible during her stay at the Pavilion, she is unwilling to check any demonstration of public feeling that the inhabitants may wish to show.-1 have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, . 4 DELAWARR, Lord Chamberlain." " Somers Clarke, Esq., Brighton." The High Constable, in consequence of the above letter, has officially announced the day fixed for her Majesty's arrival, and th e arrangements f or rece i v i ng her Majesty .and Prince Albert. The High Constable invites the articular attention of her Majesty's loyal subjects!at Brighton to the letter of the Lord Chamber lain, and in pursuance of the resolutions of the town meeting, held on the 4th instant, informs the visiters and inhabitants of Brighton, that it is intended to make the following arrangements for the public reception of her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen and Prince Albert:— Banners will be placed at the streets leading into the London-road from the Pavilion to the Hare and Hounds, and all persons coining into the town from the northern direction will find access by the Montpellier-road or Rose-hill. No carriage or horsemen will be allowed within the banners. The Members for the borough and the public autho rities will assemble at the Northern entrance to the Pa vilon. The line from the Pavilion to the Hare and Hounds will be kept by inhabitants, who will be distinguished by white wands. In the evening there will be a general illumination, and a display of fire-works, by Jones, on the Steyne, in honour of the auspicious event. The public joy will be further demonstrated by a grand ball at the Town-hall, on Thursday, the 10th inst., the anniversary of her Majesty's marriage, to which the gentry and inhabitants are invited. The apartments prepared for the Duchess of Kent are the same that were occupied by the Princess Augusta, and are quite ready. A detachment of the 2d Scot's Greys, under the com mand of Lieutenant-Colonel Clarke, leave here to-mor row, to proceed to Cuckfield, in order to escort her Majesty to Brighton on Wednesday. From the preparations making it is expected the il luminations on the night of her Majesty's arrival will be on a very grand scale. The Right Hon. Sir James Wigram, Vice- Chancellor, and M.P. for Leominster, is fifth son of Sir Robert Wigram, Bart., formerly Member for Wexford, and grandson of Margaret Loftus, sister to Viscount Loftus, whose son was first Earl of Ely. The celebrated match between Lord Maidstone and the Hon. Mr. Villiers, for 200 sovereigns, which has been o long delayed by the frost, comes off to-morrow, over the Ashby-de-la-Zouch steeple ch ase course (shout four miles) This match excites i ntense interest, from the known high eha racter of the horses. Mr. Villiers is slightly the favourite, but the writer of this paragraph is of opinion that Lord Maidstone will win.

EXECUTION of JOHN' DELAHUNT. The execution of the murderer Delabunt, at the limit of the county gaol, Kilmainham, this day, attracted immense crowds of all classes. Such Was the prurient curiosity of some, that they slept in the neighbourhood, having paid protlisely for the occupation of windows in the front of the drop, and fearing that from the crowds they would be disappointed, obtained access to their hired! perches. At an early hour crowds_of men, women, and chiL dren arrived from town and country, and the vast area was a living mass of human beings long before the hour fixed for the execution had arrived The general feeling exhihited was more of gratification or satisfaction, rather thaw pity for the wretched culprit. Three Roman Catholic priests were in attend ance upon him at an early hour in the morning, and he continued engaged anxiously in repeating th., prescribed formularies of prayers and litanies up to the latest moment allowed him to live. He was so faint and exhausted as to be scarcely able to mount the stairs to the press-room, his principal horror being to have his ears saluted with the horrific groans and 3 ells which were uttered tow,.rds him on and after his trial. When the cap was put on and the rope adjusted, he became very faint. with scarcely the sensation of life about him ; he was helped out upon the trap, when his strength gave way, and in a second or two the bolt was drawn and the wretched man launched into eternity. The crowd of men and women on the instant set up a yell, but the priests in their robes on the drop put up their hands to allay tbern, and succeeded. There was not a motion visible in the corpse after it had fallen. The crowd remained, to a great extent, until after the body had hung the prescribed half-hour. After being cut down it was placed in a shell and buried in one of the prisbn yards. The fallowing is a copy of the confession which he was desirous of having drawn up, and which was not to be published until after his execution!— " I state positively that I had neither hand, act, nor part in the death of Garlibardo, the Italian boy. I was that night in town. In a few days after the commission of the deed I went, accompanied by my brother Thomas, to view the spot. Seeing many persons climbing over the wall and going into the Marquis of Ely's de mesne, we went over the wall also. As it was coming nlilt Palm Sunday, my brother broke down a branch from one of the trees, and we brought it home. When I was afterwards confined in: the Castle, as a Crown witness against Cooney and his wife, my mother came to see me, and It occurred to me that by referring to that branch of the tree at my home it would corroborate my testimony. I accord. ingly bid her say that I brought the branch home the night of the murder, which she did, and In referring to this circum stance, and having been sent with head-constable Towers to see if my statement was correct, I at once pointed out the tree, and thus obtained more credence for my story ; but I solemnly assert I knew nothing of the facts of the case, unless by reading them, as detailed in the newspapers. I swore against Cooney and his wife . . lin the hopes of having pay at the Castle ; I also swore against the men for the assault on Mr. Cradock for the same motive, Cradock lived and got ail the particulars from an o ld woman, greownserdo. o f I t hem. wen; t Whento the I h o sa use w w th h e er p e rne M ia- r. m an a d tio w n it o h ir o e u r t i, k ig no t w h i e n i and then went and swore against the men. I accused them by mere chance. What I stated of them was false. As to the child Thomas Maguire, I do now confess that the hope of getting again into the pay of the Castle was my strong mo tive for committing the deed. I thought I could II it on some one in the course of time, and if 1 had succeeded I don't know but I might have done a similar deed again, had my conscience yielded to a similar temptation. I kept him nearly half an hour in the lane; he twice asked me was I coming home soon, as his mother would be beating him. I said that I was waiting for a jaunting car. He spent part of the time sitting in the corner at the stable-door, on a heap of dung or litter, heaped up outside. I was then turning in my mind how I could best cut his throat. He stood up then by my side. I felt his throat, and asked him had he any lumps in his throat P He made no reply. After time minutes I again felt his throat with my left hand, having the knife In my right hand ready. My right hand was then down in my coat-pocket, when I asked him the second time had he lumps in his throat, and began again to feel him. He raised up his head to let me feel more easily. His back was then to me, and at that moment, while lie was in that position, with his head drawn back, I cut his throat, and threw him from me. He fell on his face. He uttered no cry, nor did he make any noise whatever. On getting about, three yards from him I looked back, and saw him on i his feet again going in the direction of the cottage in the fight -- I did not clean the knife, but I threw it into the field. I cannot tell why I chose to kill the child to keep myself in pay at the Castle, except that I was afraid to attack a large person, and the boy Jae ing small and weak suited •my purpose. I planned the deed for nearly two months before, but could not, up to the4day of the murder, find a proper object, and besides I was often terrified in my own mind at the contemplation of :t. My real object was, I repeat it, not the desire of stilling or destrcying a human being, but merely and solely to obtain reward. I wish to state those matters fully to my Counsel, Mr. Walsh, ..that the world may know the truth before my death, and that there may be no misconception upon the mind of any one con. cerning me. I feel very grateful to Mr. Alison for his kindness to me, and regret most deeply my many and great crimes, and," at peace with the world. I should also add, that I know nothing whatsoever about the murder at Drogheda, nor did I even bear of it till I was in gaol for the murder of Thomas Maguire, and that I am totally innoc en t o f a ll knowledge of that deed, or its Par" trator.
