LAST' WEEK BU r O'E _ _ ROYAL EXTRAORDINARY A iaNyirhcATTItACTIONS. THIS DAY, TO-JiaORROW, and TAURSDAY. the Garden/ will open with the following attractive Novelties:— THE PICTLIREQ I 2. (I . IIRU . NDi . :— . FFEDLNG OF THE We announce with great regret, in another part of The Sun, an awful calamity which took place on Sa turday afternoon at Haswell Colliery, about eighteen miles from Newcastle and seven from Durham. Nearly one hundred persons were in a few minutes struck dead by one of the most terrible explosions of fire damp on record. But few particulars of the afflicting scene have been received ; but, as may well be supposed, it has created a dreadful sensation in the neighbourhood, and spread lamentation and mourning among thousands. Fatal accidents of a similar kind have lately been of frequent occurrence, and the more blame, therefore, is justly imputed to those whose duty it was to guard against such destruction of human life. Are there no inspectors of mines in these districts—no person whose duty it is to see that the pits are safe, before hundreds of unfortunate beings expose themselves together to destruction ? We confidently trust that, at the inquest on the bodies, this lamentable event will be thoroughly investigated, and the blame brought home to the negligent parties. The Madrid Gazette of the 21st publishes the fol lowing royal decree :—" Considering the merit, ser vices, and talents of Don CARLOS MARTINEZ DE IRUJO, Marquis of Casa Irujo, Duke of Soto-Mayor, and Grandee of Spain of the First Class, I appoint him my Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pleni potentiary at the Court of her Majesty the Queen of GREAT BRIT.11)T. Given at the Palace on the 20th September, 1844." This nobleman, who is said to b© one of the largest purchasers of national pro perty, had been charge d'affaires at the Court of Lours XVIII. On the 22d Count BRES3ON gave a grand banquet to the Cabinet Ministers and Foreign Ambassadors, on the occasion of the appointment of NIA.RTINEZ DE LA ROSH. to the Foreign Department. The meeting of the New Cortes is now looked to with considerable interest. The candidates for the Presidency of the Senate were hitherto the Marquis Of MIRAFLORES and Count DE FONTANCR. Letters from different parts of Spain give deplor able accounts of the depredations committed by ban ditti. Among the sufferers are the Count BB VA- L:CY:IES, Minister of France at Lisbon, who was stopptd, on the night of the 15th, by five robbers, be tween Valdepenas and Santa Cruz de Mudela. He was travelling by the Seville diligence, and he and M. DB CSUTO, the Secretary of the Spanish Embassy at Lisbon, were stripped of everything, including 16,000 reals end a quantity of jewels. On the 21st the Three per Cents. were done at 17 at 60 days i ; the Five per Cents., 20} for cash; the Floatin g D e b t, 65 without Intere s t at 6 at 50 days; and the Debt , at 60 days. The French Opposition journals express great indignation against his Majesty Louis PIIILIPPE for announcing, to the English and American Peace So ciety, his anxious desire to preserve, during his life time, the peace of the world. The National, the mouth-piece of the war party, is in a towering passion at the presumption of the KING, and concludes a rabid article on the subjeet in these words :—" If there is to be no war, what is the use of keeping up Second Edition, now ready, In 1 vol.

Let the registration plan announced pages a picture If the: youthful and stirring mind which has recently Sir J APES oy AMES GRABAM during his connexion with so much engaged the observation, and, in a great degree, the sym pathy of the put lic."—Times. ; the Admiralty Board be maintained as the principle Henry Colborne Publbter, 13, Great street. of a new scheme of re g i s ter for her M AJES TY'S _ Navy,—to be enlarged and improved with a careful view to the very serious hazards we have had, during the last two or three years, to encounter, in the absence of a practical adhesion to such a scheme—and to the aspect of passing events in the seas of the New World as well as of the Old— and to the very possible, if not probable, contingencies of the times that are fast coming upon us. Let this course be taken on the vital question of manning our navy, and we will venture to predict that we shall be spared those offensive demonstrations of petulance and annoyance by other Powers, which now, at feverish and intermitting intervals, impose upon us, in a seasion of peace, the onerous and invidious duty of making imperfect preparations for war. Such a course would, at any rate, have this moral effect —that it would avoid the unseemly and undignified evidence of hurry and confusion succeeding to inertness which recent events, we much fear, must have afforded to the "world without." The conduct of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Government in reference to the British navy has been, until arrested by the solicitude occasioned by the movements of France against Morocco, an enormous blunder—a most inexcusable dereliction of public duty. - One of our Correspondents, a naval officer, has well observed, in a short, but pithy, pamphlet, which we noticed not long ago, " that the formidable expansions of the naval strength of France have been uniformly coin cident with the contractions of our own, ever since the Premier last entered office." It is not too much to say, that in proportion as the flag of England has been treated with an open disrespect, or a more than suspicious neglect, in various parts of the world, which had hitherto never been at tempted with impunity, the exhibition of our force in the same locality, or the stations nearest adjacent to them, has been scandalously disproportionate to that of the offending flag there, and has incurred imminent risks of signalising the native indomitable courage and devotion of our gallant seamen and their admirable officers only in useless struggles against overwhelming material and numerical supe riority which, had they taken place, must have termi nated, in all human probability, in the discomfiture and destruction of our countrymen. The days have been in which a British Minister, who had allowed a French fleet of seventeen men of war to be for weeks together cruizing about the Mediterranean with only one English man-of-war to watch them (for what could she do more ?)—would have been impeached for incapacity, or something worse. No fear of that kind can enter any man's head who is cognisant of the plausible . and flexible dexterity of Sir ROBERT. But if we have weathered these threatening and once im minent perils for a time,—if, happily for the peace of civilisation and the interests of the whole human 'race, the two greatest and mightiest nations of the globe are not at this moment involved in a war of wholesale extermination, for the most worthless of objects or the most insuffi cient of pretexts ; —we owe nothing to the sagacity or the foresight, the prudence or the discretion, of a Minister who founds his claim upon the confidence of his countrymen on precisely these very qualifica tions. Sir ROBERT PEEL had formed a resolution— and doubtless it was in itself a most salutary one—to bring the public expenditure within the public in- . come. To accomplish this ob j 'ect, he re-imposed upon the country one of the most odious and op pressive of imposts, against which it had, under all former Administrations that levied it, indignantly re monstrated. By the aid of this impost he realised a sur plus revenue; and it has been his intense anxiety to maintain this surplus, at whatever present cost, at the sacrifice of whatsoever future advantages, which has, we must presume, suggested to him the reduction of our magnificent navy to an effective force of that almost contemptible amount at which it stood just before the rising of Parliament for the recess. Well, as we set out with saying, we heartily rejoice that much has been done in the intervening period, on the part of the Admiralty authorities, to repair this suicidal folly. But we also repeat that very much more remains yet to be done, before the exigencies of the present and of coming times can be duly pre pared for. In advocating such further additions to our naval force, and administrative improvements of the nature we have ventured to suggest, we are aware that we expose ourselves to the imputation of advocating a large increase of the national expenditure. Prima facie this would appear a reasonable charge. It is not so, in reality, and on a fair consideration of the facts. It is one thing to maintain, in times of peace, excessive and threatening armaments, at a vast ex pense to ourselves, and to the jealousy and disquietude of foreign States. It is another, to maintain those armaments on a scale of bare efficiency —but adapted to the purposes of any ex pansion which exigencies —probable or even un foreseen —may render not only expedient in them selves, but indispensable to that attitude of prepara tion on which alone we shall be - justified in meeting any powerful enemy. The difference between the two scales of expenditure will be insignificant indeed compared with the enormous outlay, to say nothing of the inconceivable perils, which must be entailed by any further neglect of all needful and timely measures of a precautionary policy. an army and a navy ?" The Constitutionnel sings in r the same strain. After adverting to the reply, that journal says : " This is absolutely the complete theory of peace at any price—professed with greater distinctness and ful ness than it has ever been before. War must never be made, because, even after victory, more is lost than gained. Dues not this mean that a nation is never to take up arms, either to extend its territory, or to aggran dise its influence, or to increase its commerce, or to de fend its honour, or to maintain its rights, or even to protect its soil from invasion ? This, without so intend ing, is tin apology for Jemmapes and Valmy made to Europe. What, then, is the utility of a navy, an army, or even of fortifications ? Let all our ships be burnt, let ' all our soldiers be disbanded, and sent to employ them , selves in general industry—let our ramparts be levelled, and the soil they cover he given up to the plough. All these are become a vain parade, a superfluous expense. War can never have a reasonable object—for we gain a loss, even when we have preserved our frontier, and de fended Paris." The French authorities, we find, are resolved to make the most of their victories in Africa. Grand rejoicings are to take place in Paris before the depar ture of the KING for England. The grand basin in the gardens of the Tuileries has been boarded over, and on it is to be erected the tent of the EMPEROR'S son, captured by Marshal BUGEAUD. The Messager, an official journal, thus announces other ceremonies which are to take place :—" The trophies conquered by our land and sea forces in Algeria and on the coast of Morocco are now all in Paris. Capt. Bouxr has brought those of the fleet, and Colonel ETNARD has arrived with these of Illy. If we may credit the re ports in circulation, a solemn reception is to be given to these new monuments of the valour and devotedness of our navy and army. His MAJESTT iS said to have expressed a wish that they should he presented to him on the 29th (to-morrow), in a grand review ordered for this purpose, and then conveyed in pomp to the Invalides, with a procession worthy of them, formed by a considerable portion of the garrison of Paris, the troops of Versailles, and the division extra ',taros, amongst whom are to figure principally the corps which have distinguished themselves in Algeria. We are assured that the KING has delayed his journey to Eu only for the purpose of giving, by his presence, greater éclat to this military file. His Royal High ness the Duke DE NxM9uits is momentarily expected. and Marshal SOULT arrived, it is said, this day. Thu 4 in this triumph, so justly awarded to our army and navy, there will only be wanting those who led them. The Governor-General of Algeria, the Prince Da JOINVILLE, and the Duke D'AUMALE are still retained on the theatre of their victories, but the echo of our acclamations will reach them." Some of the papers still comment on the letters written by the chaplain of the Warspite, and the steps taken by the captain to atone for the offence they caused to the French squadron. With the exception of one or two of the war journals, all of them regard the conduct of Captain Wallis as highly honourable and satisfactory. The following gossip relative to the subject is extracted from the Aly,erie and the Constitu tionnel " The origin of the scandalous letters published by the Times is no longer doubtful. It was from the pen of the chaplain of the Warspite that all the gall was distilled. This chaplain has been dismissed from the ship, and sent to England. Nevertheless, the officers of the ship have received orders not to leave their ship so long as the French flag is flying in the roadstead. The officers of the Warspite have severely expiated _ this fault. We have already noted the konour a bl e conduct of Captain Wallis in disavowing to our Consul at Gibraltar all participation in these infamous diatribes. M. 800 o, our Consul, a short time afterwards, returned Captain Wallis's visit, and when he left the frigate was saluted with seven guns. The French ship the Inflexible did not return this salute, as she should have done, according to etiquette. When the IMfiexible came into Gibraltar roads, her commander visited all the ships at anchor there except the Warspite. The English garrison at Gibraltar was highly offended by this double affront. The officers of the Warspite not being allowed to leave their ship, could not go on board the Inflexible to enter into an explanation. hut a deputation of English officers was chosen, and the time for their visit was appointed, when the Inflexible received orders to sail immediately for Tangiers. We hope, however, after all that we have stated to have been done, the angry feelings on board our squadron will be dissipated, and that henceforth this unfortunate affair, excited by an Anglican priest, will no longer remain a cause of division and animosity between the naval officers o' the two nations." A letter from Malaga, of the 12th instant, in the Constitutionnel, says : " The captain of the Warspite has written to tho Prince de Joinville a letter. in which ho gives him his word of honour that the letters inserted in the Times were not written by any of the officers of his frigate. This brave old seaman, whom I hive seen shedding tears of mortification, is right. The author of these infamies is not an officer of the Warspite, but the chaplain. The Prince has published an order of the day, in which he forbids the ♦essels of the French squadron from touching henceforward at Gibraltar." The Gazette de France of Friday makes the fol lowing announcement : "We are assured that the terms of the new loan were decided upon in the Council of Ministers this morning, and that the contract is to take place between the 6th and 10th of October. All the Receiyers-General are to be apprised of this decision by letters from the Minister of Finance." The subjoined are additional extracts from the papers : "On the 17th instant, Marshal Bugeaud addressed to the general officers and colonels commandant of divisions in Algeria a circular, containing several judicious re commendations and instructions relative to the conduct to be adopted towards the natives, and for the general government of the country. The character of this cir cular, which is of considerable length, may be judged of by the following extract : " ' After conquest, the first duty, as well as the first interest of a conqueror, is to govern the conquered people well and justly ; this . is recommended alike by policy and humanity. We have caused our strength and our power to be felt by the tribes of Algeria ; we must now make them acquainted with our goodness and justice, and make them prefer our government to that of the Turks and of Abd-el-Kader. We may thus hope to induce them to bear with our domination in the first instance, and to accustom them at length to identify themselves with us in such a way as to form only one people, under the paternal government of the King of the French.'" A letter from Saragossa, of the 17th, says— " Two days ago, forty armed men, all in uniform as carabincers, and having their captain at their head, pre sented themselves close to the town of Castillo, on the road to Madrid, and, after halting for a moment, took the road to Navarre. They did not stop any persons on the road, but at a distance of about a league and a half teem the town, they plundered a country house of all money and linen that they could find in it." The Prince de MICTTERNICII left Trieste on the 17th, on his return to Vienna. A Palermo journal of the 4th announces the depar ture fur Germany of the Duke de Sauk". DI FALCO, charged with the negotiation of a treaty of commerce between the kingdom of Naples and the German Cus toms' Union. The Augsburgh Gazette publishes a letter from Athens of the 10th, stating that the elections had ter minated in the gm:test order, and that the Chambers were to be opened on the 19th.

We are well pleased to acknowledge that the daily accounts we have received from the outports, and the dockyards of Woolwich and Deptford, during the last fortnight, demonstrate a most laudable degree of activity and.vigilance on the part of the Lords of the Admiralty. Their Lordships' recent tour of inspec tion, we are hound to admit, seems likely to be attended with very beneficial results, by securing the most prompt arid permanent attention, on the part of the subordinate executive authorities of this depart :Tent of the public service, to the efficiency of ships' armaments, the extension of the List of Men-of-war in Commission, and the organisation of better arrange ments for their manning. The complements of the experime n tal brigs, we see, have been most rapidly and satisfactorily completed, and a serious error in the scheme originally issued, in reference to thon, quickly discovered, and fairly rectified—by reducing the disproportionate number of boys allotted, in the first instance, to each complement, and substituting, for every such reductir..n of boys, five able seamen. All this is extremely well, so far as it goes. But here is not enough of tar "to pay the whole hull." The organisation which has proved al effective for 1 manning some eight or ten small war craft, of the force we have Elsewhere described in detail, should be care fully revised, and settled on bases capable of adopting themselves to much larger and more pressing exigen cies. The same machinery, with certain requisite modifications, may be rendered effective for the imme diate registration, at least, of volunteer hands, whose priority of entry on the books of her Majesty's ships of war, when called for under any future emergency, might be determined by the priority of their appear ance, now, before a duly constituted board, and the dates of their certificates of examination, competency, and approval. It is impossible, in our judgment, to overrate the value of such a proof, tendered by the Government to those who are to man our fleets, that it is in earnest.

General Paez, commander of a division of the Monte Videan army, had arrived at Rio de Janeiro in a Brazilian ship of war, for the purpose of soliciting the assistance of Brazilian troops, and it was currently re ported, that the Government had conceded to his appli cation, on what conditions had not transpired, and that the Brazilian troops in Corrieute would be placed under his command, and as soon as he had effected the ne cessary arrangements, he would, - without delay, march against the Buenos Ayreans. Supplies continued to be thrown into Monte Video, which the besiegers had been unable to prevent. The Danish barque Sara and Johanna, which ar rived off this port for orders for Buenos Ayres, from whence she sailed on the 27th of July, has brought a newspapr of that date, extracts from which are sub- I joined : (From the British Packet, Buenos Ayres. July 27.) We have news from Monte Video to the 24th instant. The journals still maintain a lofty tone, and the Rivicristas, in order to show a bold front, had been lately revelling in masquerades ; but private letters state that the greatest despondency exists among the garrison, as is evinced by the increased - number of desertions. The inhabitants, too, feel more acutely the general distress, since, after the departure of Commodore Purvis, the special patron of the fishing bolts, the latter had been effectually prohibited by the Argentine squadron from cruising outside the harbour. . . The following decree has been issued by Brigadier• General Manuel Oribo, President of the Oriental Re. public of the Uruguay : Head Quarters, July 6, 1544. The number of merchant-vessels resorting to the port of the Buceo being considerable, and the dispute with the captains thereof• and consignees, on account of aver ages and other contingencies, being also numerous ; and it being, therefore, necessary provisionally to appoint a Judge de Comercio, to whom these disputes may be re ferred, the Executive has ordered and decreed— Art. 1. A Juez Provisorio de Comercio shall take cog nizance of the disputes in question during the period that the Tribunal of Commerce ordained by law cannot be established. 2. He shall possess the same power as ordained by the statutes of Bilboa. 3. Dr. Bernalie Caravia is appointed to this employ ment 4. Let this be published. ORIBE. CARLOS G. VILLADEMOROS.

All justices of the peace, alcalde3,7notaries, and other functionaries, are forbidden to interfere in any manner in the transfer of property, &c., which the infamous Unitarians, who have assumed authority in Monte Video, would pretend to overthrow, as it regards the property of the worthy patriots who belong to the combined army of the Argentines and Orientals. 2. The infringers shall be subjected to the penalties specified in the said decrees. 3. Any stipulations regarding the aforesaid property which the infamous Unitarians may impose, are, there fore, declared void and of non effect. ORIBE. CARLOS G. VILLADEOROS. SPANISH AMERICAN BOND HOLDERS. The Committee of Spanish American Bondholders met on Friday to consider the proposals received by the last packet from the Government of New Granada, for the adjustment of the foreign debt. The further discus sion of the proposals was adjourned for a week. The following are copies of the documents : "British Legation, Bogota, July 1, 1844. ‘Gentlemen.—ln pursuance of instructions from her Majesty's Government, I addressed a note on the 19th of April, to the New Granadian Foreign Secretary, pressing on the consideration of his Government the claims of the British holders of Colombian bonds. And I have the honour to acquaint you that I have received in reply a note dated the 26th ultimo, from his Excel lency, containing the enclosed propositions for the pay ment of the interest on the proportion assigned to New Granada of the Colombian foreign loans. "In the above-mentioned note the Foreign Secretary expresses the regret which his Government experience at being obliged, by the state of the finances, and the prospects of the country, to make propositions which they are aware an not consistent with the rights of the bondholders ; but they apprehend that to offer more than they can perform would only expose them to failure and discredit. _ _ _ The Foreign Secretary further states, that if the above-mentioned propositions are not acceptable to the British holders of Colombian bonds, the New Granadian Government are disposed to enter into an arrangement for the total extinction of the foreign debt, granting for a series of years the monopoly of the growth and sale of tobacco for home consumption and for exportation, in the terms that may be agreed upon.'—l have the honour, &c., (Signed) "D. F. O'LEARY. " 1. New Granada recognises as her debt 50 per cent. of the loans contracted by Colombia in 1822 and 1824, and will issue in London bonds for the half of each Co lombian bond which may be presented, cancelling half its value. _ . " 2. These bonds to bear interest at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum, for the first four years, which rate is to be increased 1 per cent. annually, until it reaches 6 per cent., as stipulated in the original bonds. " 3. In payment of the interest corresponding to the 5.312,9754., which is the 50 per cent. recognised by New Granada, due, but not paid up to the issue of the new bonds, and such as may not be paid whilst the said bonds bear 6 per cent., in virtue of the proposal contained in the second article, bonds will be issued for cent. per cent. of the principal, so as to form with them a new ca pital equal to the original sum recognised by New Granada. " 4. These bonds will not bear interest for the first 16 years from the date of their issue. In the 17th year they will bear interest at one per cent., which will be increased at the rate of* per colt. annually, until they reach three pQr cent., the highest rate of inter‘st to be allowed on them. " 5. The interest to be paid in tobacco of the factories of the republic, and of the classes produced therein, at the price of 163. per arroba placed in the factory. " 6. The bonds of either debt will be admitted at-par in payment for such national properties as may be assigned by the law for sale for the redemption of the forpign debt. " As soon as this agreement is ratified the resporai bility of New Granada, as a part of Colombia, to cease in respect of such bonds as may be cancelled. " 8. The entire revenue of tobacco and the half of the Customs will be reserved for the faithful fulfilment of this contract ; and the Government further engages to have always in London 20,0001. to meet any deficiency in the tobacco by bad harvests or any other contingency." The Poor-law Commi s sioners have decided that all occupiers ofhouses compounded for to the poor-rates are entitled to have their na me s placed upon the rate-books. Occupiers of Parts of h ouses , whose several rents amount to 101. per annum, axe a l so , we understand, entitled to be placed upon the rate-book.

The alarm was instantly giv e n, and by the timely assistance of the engines from St. Clement Danes, followed by two of the large brigade en g i nes , and a plentiful supply of water, the damage was con fined to the shop, the valuable stock of which was entirely- destroyed. BuLLuw v. BELLEW. CONSISTORIAL COURT, EXMTER, FRIDAY, S EPT , 27.—The Very Worshipful Chancellor Martin h as j us t pronounced his decision in this case. He stated t h at though there were grounds of suspicion attaching to th e conduct of the promovent, sufficient evidence had not been adduced to prove that the testatriz was not in a con dition to make a will, nor was there anything i n the will to show that it did not ex. - press the probable int ent i ons of the testatrix. He should, therefore, admit the will to probate, but, considering the near relationship of the parties, he should not pronounce for costs.—Weelmer's Exeter Gazette.

St. Paul's Cathedral, after having been closed for two months to Divine service, for the purpose of " cleaning and restoring the interior," was re-opened on Sunday morning for public worship. Both the morning and afternoon service were very numerously attended by a most respectable congregation. The interior certainly looks all the better for the scrubbing or whitewashing it has undergone, and the statues and monuments erected to those heroes who have distinguished themselves in their country's cause by land and sea are seen to more advantage now that they are divested of the thick coat of dust that had been allowed to accumulate. A laughable scene took place at Liverpool on Thursday evening at the Liverpool Theatre.

The Rio Government was not expected to afford any aid to the Monte Videans, who continued to hold out. In the United States electioneering seemed to engross undivided attention. The public securities continue to advance, but there is very little general business doing. The market is supported by the purchases made on behalf of one or two influential parties. The quotation of Consols for pre sent transfer is 100 k to 1004, and for time 1004 to Exchequer Bills have been 745. to 765. premium. Batik Stock for Account has been quoted at 209 k.

Drury-lane Theatre opened last evening for 164 winter season, with Balfe's chef d'oeuvre, the Bob mian Girl, and a new grand ballet, in three acts , ea' titled The Cor sa i r . Th e p l ot o f t h e b allet is tiikr" , from Lord Byron's poem, and the original has VI closely f o ll owe d. Th e su bj ect of the first act I the parting of Conrad and Medora. At 11 ", rasing of the curtain, we find m uscly', amidst the wild romantic scenery of the Corsair; e Island. A prize ha s b een b roug h t i n and the Greet hold high festival. Thi s f est i va l g i ves occasion I°o the introduction of a ver y pre tt y di vert i ssemen t,' which Mademoiselle Auguste Delbes (pupil of Or sieur Albert) made her debut cn the English stir and a most successful d e b u t it was . Thi s young 10', promises to be, ere long, at the head of her prOfessil t there i a a flatness and precisio n a b ou t , 11 dancing, which prove that she has be t a well taught, and i n th e rap idi ty of T., movements (her feet lit era lly t w i n kl e ) , an d charming abandon of her manner, she reminded not unfrequently of Cerito. Her Tarentalla wi r ; , Delferier would have b een qu it e wort h y o f the &cf. nating Neapolitan her se lf. Add t o thi s that l'ilsaeoi moiselle Delbes is very young and very pretty, ri vg we think that we ar e no t r i s ki ng muc h i n propheerof that she will become a universal favourite. A Pas Deux by Montessu and Clara Webster, decidedly t o first of English dancers, was also introduced into t" divertissement, and was much and deservedly lc plauded; and a new P o lk a b y M a d emo i s el p Delbes, Monsieur Delferier, and the corps ballet, concl u d e d th e di vert i ssement. T h e act eiris eludes with the parting of Conrad and Medora. . 1 5 scene of the s econ d ac t i s l a id i n t h e H a ll of " of Pacha," where he holds " A feast for promised triumphs yet to comer f ,' and this feast i s ma d e t h e occas i on f or another dive tissement, in which, after a very pretty danse.d'Od': lisques by Mademoiselle Delbes and the corps del:0 1 _ 1 ,1 6 Gulnare is introduced in the person of the mkiev d , Adele Dumilatre. We remember, when Adele 1; 1 ,1 milatre appeared at the Opera two seasons 51 9 5 she was not unfrequently reproached sl o t want of animation. Her Gulnare is certainly open to such reproach. It is the very Gulnare of `' i • poet. She looked, i n th e open i ng scene, t h e vet personification of haughty beauty. Her grand Pa' Deux with M. D es pl aces , w hi c h i s introduced l/ this scene, quite took the house by storm ; her Pl' deforge in this p as was truly astonishing. They not merely tours d e f orge , b u t tours d e grace 0„.,15eff and as she bounded a c r oss th e s t age , seeming to 7 4 sylph-like in the air, s h e was greete d w i t h the 11"• rapturous applause ever heard within the walls o' l theatre. The act concludes with the attack on the Fade palace, and the def ea t o f C onra d. I n th e thi r d s ett find Gulnare int e r ce di ng w ith th e P ac h a for the pardon of Conrad ; and here Adele Dumila o t introduces her Pas de S e d uc ti on — a pas the 0,1,1,e fascinating that c an p oss ibl y b e imagined. Th e Paella, however, is obdurate, and the ballet e 9 be by the murder of th e P ac h a b y G u l nare, an d , destruction of his palace by the comrades of Coats 0 who arrive just as h e i s se t at lib erty b y G u lo9 if the fate of p oor M e d ora h av i ng b een prov ioo s o ; shadowed forth to hi m i n a d ream . A t the co pe sion, AdeleDumilatre was loudly called, and rece .j . with all the honou rs . Thi s b a ll et was most suecZol ful ; indeed, it w ou ld h ave b een surpr i s i ng if i t been otherwise, for it has in it every elemeni" success. The story illustrated is well kno. o g This is a most important feature towards secar t o . the success of a ballet, inasmuch as the audience derstand it from th e b eg i nn i ng, and an interePe, a consequently at once aw a k ene d . Th e plot is well vote veloped, the scenery is beautiful, the costumes magnificent, and the music is appropriate. Talat e t a whole, this i s b y f ar t h e b est b a ll et that has ro been produced at Drury-lane, and there cannot b e o doubt of its having a long run. The h o use Ic ce , crammed in every part. P rev i ous t o the commerltri ment of the opera, the National Anthem was sups. the whole of the corps operatique, the solo parts De,A sustained by Miss Homer, Mi ss R a i n f orth, and "' W. Harrison. HAYMARKE7'. This favourite retreat of the comic Muse r o opened for the season last night. During the ref 0 the theatre has been considerably refreshed, anao , addition made to the stage. A new and, chap executed act drop, b y M r. M arshall, Is one o f many improvements effected. Mrs. Centli v s e comedy, The Busy Body, introduced the same c' dramatique wh o h ave f or some time past delighted the frequenters of the Haymarket, and afforded o f principal performers ample scope for the dispil l i f er their respective powers. Not over witty or e ,.. 0 1 delicate, as m i g h t be expeeted when the lifeL d career of Mrs. Centlivre are considered, The P AN Body abounds in character, situation, and incli f and to say that Mr. Farren, Mr. C. Mathews. Strickland, Madame Vestris, and Mrs Hurnby P e ts formed th e pr i nc i pal parts, is to say that they Isitt,te perform e d i n the best style. After the comedy, the whole company appeared on the stage, and sung . I ,g National Anthem, after which, that most am t 36 4 ., 1 piece, Used Up, was produced, for the ninth time. It scarcely needs repeating ri ° os t that Mr. Charles Mathews made a s pa perfect impersonation of the dace far niente , be most persons, we imagine, will agree that, while et c continues to thr ow suc h lif e and spirit into 111; points an d wor d s , t h e wor ld has still something r„ ot to pass the t e di um o f an unemployed hour, and least to mo ve th e musc l es if i t do not excite the ner',by After the piece Mr. Mathews was loudly called for the audience, an d hi s appearance was the signa l very cordial applause. The evening's entertaintneW concluded w ith th e spr i ghtly farce 'of the Millig e Holiday. It was gratifying to see the theatr e 0 numerously attended in every part ; the more s ( '' t o the management seems desirous to omit nothing insure success. 'TRAND. clef The winter season was commenced last night un the most favourable auspices. The house was t e e and respect a bl y filled, the artists were perfect in.ty, s , parts, awl th e p i eces selected were eminently slice; ful. If the first night, therefore, can be taken ° L , r , fair crit er i on o f those that may succeed, the eni, prising l essee , M r. Roberts, may flatter o-, self that his exertions will reap merited reward. Martin Chuzzlezeit, which t he , been hitherto so popu l ar, was selected as opening piece, and with Hall as Pecksniff Sairey Gamp, and Mrs. Montgomerie as Cherry,,, to individual w ou ld b e morose indeed who could fall at be delight e d. I n i nstancing these two, we do mean to detract from the reputation of the others , as the burden of the drama rests more particuMi h e upon them, as th ey stand more prominently t i e d foregrou n d, we h ave been thus induced to °°' itt them.

The far ce ;te, light, sketchy thi ng, redolent of fun, and the ruzit,;# the self-g ra t u l atory s h rewdness, the quaint, yet ha the sayings of the " Vermont Wool Dealer," kep t A i tk a house in a roar of laughter. Certes, the cc:01 1 7 03 ; from the " far West" carried his audience wit h ,",. z ble and when, on the conclusion of the piece, Mr. Al fl- r e was called before the curtain, he was t i c tio ceived with the most gratifying app l 7 B " , o oC which he acknowledged, in words brief indeeu' re to the purpose.
