It was the wealth and resources acquired by our trade and commerce that enabled us to brave the anger and ultimately to over turn the power of the greatest general and monarch of modern times. We accepted as an honour what was intended as a reproach. It is not the immense weal h of which Mr. PETO is the fortunate possessor that gave weight to his words, but it was because that wealth was acquired by a long course of prosperous industry and un blemished integrity, until the firm of which he is a member attained a position equalled by few, sur passed by none in the British dominions. But it was not merely as the representative of British industry that Mr. PETO possessed universal claims upon the attention of the House. He might also be regarded as the representative of a numerous and influential body of men of moral and religious character, and great weight in the social scale. SAMUEL MORTON PTO, the senior partner of the great firm of PETO and BETTS, could speak of the position of trade, of the employment of the working population of the country at fair and remu nerative wages, and of the consequent welfare - of the operatives, with the greatest authority—none could have had greater opportunities of ascertaining the true state of facts, and he had given too many practical proofs of his acuteness and intelligence to suppose that he would not draw sound conclusions from the authentic data within his reach. But SAMUEL MORTON PETO, a man looked up to and respected by the Dissenters of Great Britain—a member of a body who had long suffered from the effects of religious persecution and intolerance, and one who might be regarded as the exponent of these views and feelings—carried with him even greater weight and authority. The compliment paid to the individual was a compliment to the Dissenters of all denominations throughout the length and breadth of the land, and at the same time afforded the strongest guarantee that there would be no retro gression in the broad path of universal toleration, no invasion of the sacred rights of civil and religious liberty. If the course so long and so consistently pursued by the Noble Premier and his co adjutors did not afford a sufficient guaran tee that no unnecessary restrictions would be imposed on any class of her MAJESTY'S subjects, the support and approbation of such a man as the Honourable Member for Norwich would afford abundant confirmation, such as might con vince even the most sceptical that nothing very formidable was contemplated, and the Whig Minis ters could not properly be designated as " reac- tionaries." We shall not follow Mr. PET() through his sin gularly able and instructive speech in all its varied details. He touched judiciously on all the topics introduced in the Royal Speech, and, nihil tetigit quod non ornamit, he drew the true distinction when he said that " peace would be preserved at the risk of everything but good faith and national honour," and felicitously alluded to the recent treaties with Brazil, which afforded a reason able prospect of the " utter abolition of the accursed traffic" in human flesh and blood. He illustrated the puzzle, that a large reduction of taxation does not lead to a corresponding diminution of revenue, by showing that although duties to a large amount had been repealed or modified during the last session, the income of the country had not fallen off, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer was still in the happy position of having a large sur plus at his command. The duty on sugar had been Tedueeti 11.' per cwt., which ii."--"uld made, , According to the calculations that had been supposing that there had been no increase of consumption con sequent on the change, led to a loss to the Ex chequer of 311,4541., hut which only led to a decrease of 9,1801. Again, the great increase in the declared value of the exports, amounting to nearly forty per cent. within the last ten years, afforded the best evidenA of the accuracy of the doctrines professed by the Free-traders, and the happy results of the great experiment which the British nation had tried. Notwithstanding the short crop of cotton, and the consequent increase in price of the raw ma terial of the staple manufacture of the country, there had been great activity exhibited in the manufac turing districts, and 50,000 bands were employed in the mills in 1850 more than in 1847; and, as Mr. PETO happily remarked, this increase of the factory hands had not been obtained at the sacrifice of infantile energy. There bad been a decrease since 1834 of 20 per cent. in the children employed, and an increase of 81 per cent. in the adults." The number of able-bodied paupers, too, had largely diminished, while the statistics of crime in the manufacturing metropolis showed even a more satisfactory result—the criminal charges in Man chester for the year 1848 being 6,587, while in 1850 they were only 4,687. Mr. PETO also clearly and distinctly showed that the change in the navigation-laws had not produced the stagnation that had been anticipated by the prophets of ill omen ; on the contrary, the tonnage bad in creased, and the greatest activity pervaded the ship building districts. With respect to the agricultural districts, although there has been unquestionably Air. which he PETO showed that there some was e very degree prospectsuc success, s improvement, ordinary powers of vaticrnation. I n spea ki ng o f th e ven tured positionto p a r n e d d i c p t r , without eets o of layingte claim to any extra sister kingdom, Mr. PETO bore honourable testimony — an d a more com petent and unexceptionable Witness could not be procured—to the character of the Irish labourer,whom be described as, if fairly treated, the most faithful creature in existence. any The greater, and perhaps, all thi ngs cons id ere d, th e measure that might be most important portion of the spee c h, r e l a t e d t o th e Pa Point the Honourable introduced could not be regarded as a restri c ti on " on religious opinions, but only on political doctrines," Gepnatllem aggression. n re s s h s o io w n ed thatOn this and that the Papal rescript would have been as warmly resented "in the paltniest days of the Roman Catholic religion in this country."

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC We have recived the Paris Journals of yesterday. On Monday the Minister of Finance, M. GERMINY, presented the Dotatir , n Bill for Ile PRESIDENT of the Republic to the Assembly. In presenting it M. GER DIINY sail, I have the honour of presenting to the As sembly a Bill s-king for an augmentation of the credit grintfd to the PRSIDENT for Pais de representation —(Agit4tion on the Lett.) Last year, the law of Jove 24 allured for that purpose the sum of 2,160,000 f. The pressing and numerous obligations imposed on the Chief of the State by the position which he oceupits, render the augmentation in question a matter of neces sity, and we accordingly propose to you to open an ad ditional credit of 1.800,000 f. for the year 1851. A voice on the Left—Oh, it is nothing; exceedingly cheap ! The MINISTER of FINANCE—The reasons assigned last year in tavoar of the additional sum still subsist, and dispense us from entering into any further explanations. We accordingly leave the question of haute convenance to the appreciation of the Assembly.—(Slight agitation• on the Lett,) The PRESIDENT—The Bill shall be referred to the bureaux, where a Committee shall be nominated to ex amine it in the usual course. Some agitation was perceptible after this incident, but not to any extent worth speaking of. The presentation of the Dotatton Bill was followed by an incident that produced almost as great a sensation as the presentation of the Bill itself. The monthly. Bureaux of the Assembly were renewed on Monday. The majority of the presidents and secre taries belong to the faction of the Burgraves. The constitution of the Bureaux is by no means fa vourable to the success of the Dotation Bill. The Re publican and Legitamatist journals all impress upon the Assembly the necessity of at once rejecting it. Ow the demand of the French Government, M.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The market was quiet but steady.—Railway Shares were dull, and generally at lower prices. Accounts from Belgium state that the attention of the Government there had been directed to the fact that there were parties contravening the law which prohibits the ope ration of foreign insurance companies, and accordingly a new decision had been obtained in one instance from the Court of Cassatioti, confirming the former interpretation of the law. At Amsterdam, on the 3d inst., the Dutch Funds were again in favour, and with an animated business doing. Spanish Bonds were almost without variation. Mexican were in more request and also Peruvian Deferred. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. closed at 57 9-16 to %. There was some in,lication of weaknessyesterday afternoon in the rate of exchange on Paris and one or two other placer., but there was not mueb..docre. The English Stock• Market is still comparatively free from oscillation, but the satisfactory nature of the proceed ings in Parliament last evening have given it a firm tone.

The Court was crowded to excess this morning at an early hour, in anticipation that the Sloanes would be put upon their trial, an anticipation which subsequently turned out to be not at all ill-founded. The entrances and avenues lead ing to the court were inconveniently thronged, while in the court itself there was an extensive muster f the gentlemen of the long robe, who kept up a continual buz of conversa tion around the reporters' box, with a couple of well-known police-court solicitors, to the great annoyance of the repre smtatives of the press. The compartments in the body of the court appropriated to the public were filled almost im mediately alter the doors were thrown Open, and amongst those present were several well-known literary and artistic gentlemen, and a few members of the aristocracy; but the gallery at the opening of the case was, comparatively speak ing, empty. Shortly after ten o'clock Mr. Justice Coleridge and Mr. Justice Cresswell, attended by the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs, entered the court and took their seats on the bench, and after one or two cases had been " mentioned " and " appointed " for a future day, the Clerk of the Arraigns directed the gaoler to call up George Sloane. Immediately afterwards George Sloane and Theresa Sloane were put forward. Mr. Sloane, whose personal exterier has already been made familiar to the world, appeared to be suf fering from mental depression, but he was nevertheless suf ciently collected to be able to communicate freely with his legal advisers. Mrs. Sloane seemed to be in the last depth of misery and mental distress. Her head was covered withit loose black lace veil, which fell over her forehead ri la Mary Queen of Scots, and partially concealed the upper part of her features, while she held a light cambric handkerchief to her mouth which rendered the concealment complete. They were indicted for misdemeanour, the indictment con taining many counts; and upon being called upon to plead, Mr. Sloane in a loud firm voice read from a slip of paper, " Guilty-to all the indictment 2 exeept the first and second counts." He spoke in a clear audible voice, but his wife ia• delivering the same plea scarcely spoke above a whisper. Mr. Chambers, Q.C., with whom was Mr. Huddlestone, appeared for the prosecution; and Mr. Clarkson, with whom was Mr. Bodkin, watched the case on behalf of the prisoners. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE wished to know what course the prosecution intended to pursue now. Mr. CLARKSON submitted in the first instance that the two counts excepted by - the prisoners, which charged them with neglecting to provide one Jane Wilbred, who was an infant of tender years, and had been under their control as a servant, with proper and necessary food and nourish ment, could not be sustained in point of law, as it could not be said that Jane Wilbred was an infant of tender years. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE thought the proper time had not arrived yet for taking such an objection as that. Mr. HUDDLESTONE said all the other counts simply charged the prisoners with a common assault. Mr. Justice CoLERIDGE again observed that it was for those who had charge of the prosecution to determine now the course to be pursued with reference to the two first counts. Mr. CHAMBERS said he would go on with the whole in dictment as if the prisoners had pleaded not guilty, as it would be necessary to go into the evidence of the assault to establish the other two counts. Mr. CLARKSON asked their Lordships to order all the wit nesses out of court, which was done. The girl Jane Wilbred was in attendance, and quitted the court with the other witnesses. She looked robust and well, her cheeks wore the ruddy hue of health, her walk was firm, and her figure upright. Mr. Justice CoLEarnGx—Very well, then swear the jury. The jury having been accordingly sworn, Mr. CHAMFERS proceeded to open the case to them. He said there were several counts in the indictment, but the first two, which the defendants had excluded from their plea, were more special than the others. No doubt it would be contended on the other side that they were bad in law, but he thought he should be able to show before the trial closed that they were sustainable both in point of law and fact. The law required masters to provide due and proper nourish ment for infant servants who might come under their con trol, and their neglecting to do so was an offence in law. Now these two counts charged the prisoners at the bar with that offence, and he apprehended there were cases in the books to support the proposition of law which he had endeavoured to explain, while he had no less doubt that the evidence would establish the offence to the fullest extent. Having thus briefly explained the law to them, he would proceed to disclose to them a short outline of th e facts of the case, only premising that they ought to dismiss from their minds all prejudice that they might have engendered against the prisoners, or either of them, and try the indictment solely upon its merits. The girl who had been the victim of the prisoners'misconduct was formerly an inmate of the West London Union, and on the 9th of itily in 1849 the female prisoner applied to the overseers to recommend her a servant from amongst the orphan paupers of the union. She stated that she was the wife of Mr. Sloane, of Pump-court, Temple, and Mr. Parker, the schoolmaster, having made inquiries about her, reported the result to the guardians, who thought it woull be an ad vantage to one of the female charges it she could be got into the service. Accordingly, when Mrs. Sloane called again she was shown a number of girls, from whom she selected Jane Wilbred, the subject of the pre sent inquiry, and she was handed over to her custody in excellent health, and having been previously supplied with three suits of clothing Passing over the interval between that period and the time when the girl was first discovered ALM!. Phillitnore, the barrister, in a state of dreadful ems -the Learned Counsel went on to describe the _stepa which that gentleman took to bring the affair to light. Mr. Philiimore, finding that Mr. Sloane belonged to Lincoln's Inn, applied to some of the authorities of that institution on the subject, and ultimately the girl was got possession of and removtd to the Royal Free Hospital, where she was restored to a comparative state of convalescence, not by the aid of medicine, but through the in.trumentality of careful nourish ment. Long ere her recovery, however, she was carried be fore Mr. Alderman Hemphery, at the Guildhall Police-court, where she made a statement which seriously implicated the prisoners at the bar, and naturally induced the Alderman to call upon Mr. Sloane to appear before him and answer the complaint. Mr. Justice CRESWELL here directed the Learned Coun sel's attention to the fact that he had said nothing about the age of the girl. Mr. CHAMBERS thanked his Lordship for the suggestion. The girl was 14 years of age when she was taken from the workhouse school, and she was therefore between 16 and 17 years of age when Mr. Phillimore's attention was drawn to her. At first it would seem that she was duly and fairly treated by her master and mistress, but in the course of time they began to illuse her, and keep her without food, till she was reduced to such a frightfully emaciated condition that her reduced bodily appearance attracted the attention of some of Mr. Phillimore's servants when she was carrying water from a neighbouring pump. Those persons, seeing her sink day by day, spoke to Mr, Phillimore on the subject, which eventually led to his interference in the manner he had already described. It would not, however, be necesssary for him to go through every individual case of assault, it would be enough if he should, by the evidence of the girl and other parties, show that the prisoners neglected to supply her with the requisite and adequate food for her sustenance. If not, then it would be the duty of the jury to convict them on the two first counts of the indictment; but as to the question of law, they had nothing whatever to do with it. It was beyond their province, and must rest entirely with the bench. And having thus stated what the nature of the facts were which the evidence would disclose, he would at once proceed to call that evidence, simply reminding them for a second time that the due administration of justice required them to dismiss from their minds all pre conceived notions of the case and be guided in their judg ment exclusively by the evidence. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE, before any witnesses were called, announced that in the opinion of the Court the counts had not been properly drawn up. They alleged that Jane Wilbred was an infant of tender years under the dominion and con trol of her master and mistress, who were the prisoners at the bar, and who had wilfully omitted and neglected to supply due and sufficient food for her proper nourishment. No doubt that was an indictable offence in law, but according to the opening of the Learned Counsel the girl was between 14 and 15 years of age when taken into the service, while at the time when she was found in this emaciated state she must have been at least 16 or 17 years of age. Now, this girl could not be considered an infant of tender years, and therefore he thought the prosecution would fail in proving this material allegation, which would put an end to the case. Masters and mistresses, when they engaged domestic servants of mature age, contracted, of course, to supply them with proper and sufficient teod, and if they failed to do so it was a breach of the civil contract ; but he need not tell the Learned Counsel that this was not the place to try a breach of civil contract. Hit could have been shown that the girl wcs kept in durance, and prevented from re dressing herself or from complaining, or procuring any other service, then the case would have been different, and the priso ners might have been tried on these counts; but she was not restrained in any way. On the contrary, she was seen from time to time in and about prisoners' premises, and she had ample opportunities of complaining to the various parties whom she saw around her. Mr. CHAMBERS conceded at once that the question about the tender years of the girl rested entirely with their Lord ships, but it was right that he should mention that although she was not in a state of absolute duress, yet the prisoners ex ercised such a control over her as to prevent her righting her self, or complaining to the people around her. Mr. Justice CRESSWELL said children were by law con sidered competent to judge with reference to the most im portant occurrences of their lives, and when disputes age w as about the custody of a child, a child at a very earlyyag " allowed to elect between the parties claiming, tes custo d y. of such It was, therefore,impessible to say that this gi:, ass i st i n g or tender years as to be by law quite incapable r righting herself. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE said both law and c ommon sense A girl Of Six contradicted the allegation of tender y a ea c r& _, bile] but a young teen or seventeen years of age was n nature itself prompted. It could woman, and was competent atdatill events procuring assistance ot gas sa li t :i d t e ha t t ha s t h which d w or of bether they looked simply i not n t hopportunitiesmetropolis, o a f nd tcomplaining,therefore, me. conclusion must be the 8. ü bmitted that still th ere were two at the question of law o r the q uestion of common sense the a Mr. HUDDLESTO t x : jury a t h et e u p a r l is r o e n st e r r a s in ex o erc a i n s d ed s o e v oo er nd t l h y e , could decide--first, what w as th e quest i ons which h an actual was no absolute duress, was th e that there a which even supposing n ature of the amountconttrhoal ect of the girl of sufficient capacity to ena bl e h er to intellect of the girl of sufficient capacity to enable her to compl3l or right herself? He apprehended th at t h e ques girl ; did it ques tion of tender age depended entirely upon the extent and de velopment of the intellectual capacity of the girl. Mr. Justice Coi.Enthnx said the Learned Counsel who opened the case had intimated no special circumstance of the nature suggested by Mr. Iluddlestone, nor did the indict ment allege that the girl was of tender age by reason of the weakness or incapacity of her intellect. They must take the case according to the facts disclosed in the open ing and not impart speculative matters into it. The simple question was, had the prisoners exercised such dominion and control over her as to prevent her from com plaining to other parties, and the facts appeared to nega tive it. Mr. CHAMBERS said that if the Court was of opinion that the girl could not be co ns id ere d i n t h e l ig h t o f a c hild of tender years, why , of v9uree, there wall An end of the cue. lie ~_ (~ Q- was thane in the discharge of an important public duty; bat of course, if the Court ruled that the law was against him, it would be an unpardonable waste of time to go oa with the evidence. It wou ld p ro b a bl y , h owever , be satisfactory to the public to know that, no matter how this part of the case might be disposed of, it could make little or no difference in the extent of the punishment which the prisoners were liable to. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE said he was clearly of opinion that the course the Learned Counsel had taken was the right one, while he was equally satisfied that the law which bore upon the case was against him. The girl could not be considered as a child of tender years. Mr. Justice CRES3WELL took the same view of the matter, If it had been shown that the girl was under actual duress, and prevented from obtaining proper food, the indictment could have teen sustained, notwithstanding that she was not an infant of tender years, but the facts which he believed had neither been exaggerated nor understated by the Learned Counsel who opened the cue, failed to establish anything of the sort. Mr. CHAMBERS must bow to the decision of the Court, and decline to go on with the case. The jury, therefore, uncler the direction of the Court, re turned a verdict of Not Guilty on the two first counts. Mr. CLARKSON, before the . Court passed s entence, applied on behalf of the prisoners . for leave to file affidavits of poverty in mitigation of punishment. Mr. CHAMBERS hoped, if his Learned Friend's application were granted, the prosecution would have an opportunity of seeing the affidavits and contradicting them if necessary., Mr. Justice COLERIDGE thought that would be only tedr, but the practice was that the affidavits pro and con. should be filed at the same time. Mr. CLARKSON eaid upon consideration he thought it. best to withdraw his application, which he did accordingly. The COURT then intimated that they should defer pruising: sentence for the present, and the prisoners were removed from the dock. PART IT. 6. Oveture—Fra Diavolo - - Auber. 7. Solo—Favourite Air 8.

Most persons delight in a mark of respect, Nor are we surprised, when we come to reflect ; 'lls pleasing men all individuals seem To think us deserving of marks of esteem, Aud 'tit but a natural wish, after all, To desire respect from the great and the small. Now, the way to obtain this respect, more or lees, Is centred in one lit'le syl'able, "Dress ;" Only think whatiaspec lieble And especially that of E. MOV I g l it lg ni ba e le ''' N. Respectual attention is gained by a snit, And many have realised fortune to boot. The Greatest advantage, the greatest success Are centred in that little syllable " Dress." Then away to the Dress-mart of MOSES and SON, Whose garments such boundless approval have won ; Such elegant dresses were never displayed, Till - the Warehout,e of MOSES appeared in the trade ; And as, for the cloth and the putting together, Tbe clothing will serve you in all kinds of weather; find when you see them, they've not a defect, And when you once Wear them, you'll meet with respect; And many good ehances in life will be won, If you take the costumes of MOSES and SON. A handsome Almanac, for the year 1851, can be had gratis, on application. _ _ Notice.—The Fur and ShaWl Departments are now replete with every novelty of the season. Observe.—Any article purchased, either ready-made or made to measure, it not approved of, will be exchanged or the money re turned. Caution.—E. Moses and son regret having to guard the public against imposition, but having heard that the untradesmanlike false hood of being connected with them, or it is the same concern, has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state they have no connexion with any other house in or out of London, except their own Establishments, as iollows: London City Establishment, 154, 155, 156, and 157, Minories, 83, 44, 85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

The session of Parliament for the year 1851, or, as we trust, that it will hereafter be termed the Year of the Great Exhibition, has commenced. The Royal Speech has been delivered—the Addresses of both Houses of Parliament duly moved and seconded—and we are happy to say, carried without a division. There was also less than the usual amount of aspe rity displayed, or than might have been expected, when the conflicting nature of the elements of which the Legislature, more especially the popular branch thereof, is composed. All passed off in an exceedingly satisfactory manner, affording the most propitious auguries for the rapid dis patch of business, and leaning to the hope that the relative proportions of " sayings and doings" that have hitherto been perceptible, may be materially altered in the second half of the 19th century. The proceedings, however, were by no means devoid of interest. The all but unanimity exhibited, perheps unparalleled on such an occasion, had in it nothing of insipidity. Mr. ROEBUCK, as usual, imparted a certain degree of acidity, which might not have injured the flavour of the general mixture; while Mr. CHISHOLM ANSTEY, in a speech that rt fleeted the' highest honour on his head and heart, proved how correct we were in supposing that a l arge p ro portion of the Roman Catholic laity viewed th e late Pa pal aggressions with at least as much displeasure and indignation as their Pro testant fellow-subjects. The speech of the evening, however, was that of the Honourable Gentleman the Member for Norwich, who se con d e d t h e A d d ress.

BELL and a Common Jury.) CROUCH V. THE SOUTH-WESTERN 111LWAT COVEPAN'T. This action was brought to recover the sum of 61. 10s., being the value of two watches alleged to have been en trusted to the company to be conveyed to Southampton, but which never arrived at their destination. Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. Lush were counsel for the plaintiff, and the defendants were represented by Mr. Bovill. The plaintiff, it appeared, had established several receiv ing houses in different parts of London, and was in the habit of receiving small parcels to be conveyed, by the railways. When he obtained a namber of these parcels whose destina tion was in the same direction he, with a view to economy and cheapness, had them put up int, a single package which was afterwards opened by his agents in the country, and each parcel delivered to its owner. By these means Mt. Crouch was enabled to charge much less for carriage then the railway companies. On the 26tk of July, 1850, one. of these large packages was sent to the Waterloo station of the South-Western Railway, directed to the care of Masers. Smith and Dawes, of Southampton, for a Mr. Holloway. On the package reaching Southampton, it was found th a t th e parcel containing the watches, whicl;was separately directed. to a Mr. Beardmore, had been opened, aid the watches taken out. Witnesses having been called to prove the above facts, Mr. BoVILL, for the defendants, contended that if the parcel had been opened at all, it was not as alleged, by the servants of the company, but by those in the employ of Mr. Crouch, and that the package was delivered at Southampton exactly in the same state in which it was brought to the Waterloo station. Evidence was given in support of the defendants' case. Mr. Sergeant WILKIHS having replied, The jury retired, and after a brief absence returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 61. 10s. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY Although our market to-day was very scantily sup plied with all kinds of Wheat of home produce, the de mand far that grain ruled heavy in the extreme, and Monday's quotations were almost nominal. A few par cels were disposed of for shipment from the East coast, on somewhat lower terms. This week's imports of Foreign Wheat have been confined to 2,830 quarters; nevertheless, the show of samples was somewhat exten sive. Fine dry qualities were held at full currencies ; damp parcels ruled heavy. We had a very dull sale for both Barley and Malt, the supplies of which were os tensive, at late rates. The inquiry for Oats was confined to ret ail parcels, on former terms. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour were almost nominal. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. English . • •• • • 5c0tch........

HAYMARKET THEATRE. An admirable farce entitled Good for Nothing was p ro . duced here last evening with the most complete success. The Good for Nothing is a wild, rollocking, hoyden, named Nan, who is living under the guardianship of a market gardener and a railway stoker, who in vain endeavour to correct her of her hoydenish propensities, and who are, moreover, themselves constantly quarrelling. Love, however, the universal conqueror, at length conquers Nan, she *HS in love and becomes civilized. 'flit character et Nan was sus tained by Mrs. Fitzwilli am ; the market gardener found a re presentative in:Mr. Buckstone, and the stoker in Mr. Howe. Mrs. Eitzwilliam's Nan was, after its kind, a perfect piece of acting. Her make up on her entrance from a tre mendous game of romps, ha ir a ll t um bl e d , f rock all born, 'bitots -all mudded, was - irresistible ; and the aiviikening character of the mad-cap, when brought into contact with sensible advice and instruction, was nicely shaded out in a series of small but insignificant and well-imagined points. Mr. Buckstone and Mr. ljowe bad each a little "charect.sr bit," which they developed with neat touches, and strong and bold colouring; and altogether the piece, consuFaniately played as it was, is calculated to afford half-an-hour's legiti mate and thorough amusement. It is from the pan of Mr. Buckstone. SPORTING IN LIVERPOOL STEIN WEIGHTS FOR THE LI Yrs st lb Lord George 6 8 7 ILübt Christiana .

ACCIDENT TO HER MAJEETY'S STATE CARRIAGE YESTERDAY. —On her Majesty reaching the entrance of the House of Lords yesterday, one of the r o yal f oo tmen who rode behind jumped dowse to open the door, to enable her Ma jesty to alight, but, in doing so, incautiously neglected,in the fist instance, to let down the large and massive plate-glow window. The door happened to catch at the . top, and, in consequence of the strain upon the glass by the . jerkgiven in pulling the door open, it was cracked in all directions, and fell in fragments both inside and outside the carriage. Her Majesty was detained several minutes before the glass was cleared away by the attendants, and in her return to Buck ingham Palace, after delivering the Royal Spent], she was obliged to proceed in the carriage minus the window. For tunately, the weather was extremely mild, and the day very beautiful, otherwise her Majesty must have had to endure considerable inconvenience. Lord North, son of the Right Hon. and Rev. the Earl of Guildford, has engaged, fora limited time, the resi dence in the Mote Park, formerly occupied by Admiral Reigersfield, and recently by the late Mr. T. Tassel. — Kentish Gazette.
