W e remained there five or six minutes, and when we got in Frimiey we found the other two standing under a tree on a little bit of green in front of Mr. Robert's hr use.

Mr. A.I. CHAMBERS—Did they wear their stockings? Wit ness— I never saw Jones with stockings, and I had no feet to mine in summer time. Samuel had his shoes and stock inge on. There had been a window Iroken before I arrived there; but I could not ray who broke it. I got into the scullery. Mr. M. Cnaemems—How came you to get in ? Witness —Being the smallest I got my hand and leg through, and they pushed me in as Hell as they could. With a worm I worked holes inside near the iron bar, which the others forced from its place and then got in. We all got into the kitchen,' and began to look about. I held the candle, which was' a piece Jones had in his pocket. Levi Harwood took 2s. front a workbox in the kitchen, and we then went into a sitting room, where we found an old-fashioned gold watch and a silver bungling watch, engine -turned, a.large silver snuff box, a small silver snuff-box with a fine hinged lid.. We drank some wine, but I can't say who it was taken by. It was not by me. They told me to take a decant :r out and give it to Sam, while he stood under the cyposs tree, which I did. • Mr. M. CHAMBERS—Did you take anytiirg else? Wit ness—A humberellar and a telescope. The telescope was produced, and he was asked to identify it.

When I _event back to the ho eksli rfoeUtt*lber - Itattout- their way out of the room Where I bid Aft them,' and were hi. a room on the other side of the pissage. ,Jones went down into the pantry and brought up some bread, cheese, and meat, which, however, I did nut cut, and it was carried away. We then went into a room upstairs where there was no one sleeping, and we took out of it one dress hanging on the bed, and two out of a chest of drawers. We then went downstairs, and I went outside to fetch Samuel Ilarwood in. Jones put on a green baize mask and a cloak. I did so too. Levi Ilarwood put on a white mask and his white guernsey. Samuel Ilarwood put nothing on. Jones then went upstairs with a pistol in his right hand; Levi Har wood, with a pistol in his right hand; myself third with the candle, which was lighted; and Samuel Harwood fourth, with a screwdriver. In that order we entered the bed room, Samuel Harwood remaining at the Boor. Mrs. Hol iest awoke first, and Levi Harwood Said, " If you don't lay still, my good woman, I'll blow your brains out." We were all standing at the foot of the bed then. Mrs. Holiest got out of bed, and, to my best belief screamed. Jones catched hold of her, and thrust her up in the corner. Mr. Holiest then awoke, and was getting off the foot of the bed to lay hold of Levi Harwood. Levi fired the shot. Mr. M. CHAMBERS—Wbat did you do? Witness—l took the gold watch dr the stand, which was on a washhandstand or table at the foot of the bed. We then all four ran down stairs. Samuel Harwood was first, and we went out at the front door, which had previously been fastened back with the door mat. Samuel had pulled off his boots when he came into the house, and had bare feet when he ran away. We ran into the road, then along the main road, and over a rate into a stubble field, where we put our shoes on. Levi Har wood said there, " I hope to God it's not killed the man." After that we crossed the common, and carrying the bread and cheese and meat, which I threw into a ditch when I had got some distance. We went in company together for four or five miles across a common, which brought us out against the canal. I gave the gold watch, two miles before we parted, to Levi Harwood. Jones and Samuel Harwood took with them to Guildford the two pistols, two boys' great coats, two umbrellas, and a bag of copper money. Jones gave Levi his pistol, who took the contents out and gave both back to hint or Samuel (I cannot swear which) to take to Guildford. I did not see where the bag of copper money came front, but it was Landed to me, and I gave it to Sam at the same time as I took him the telescope and umbrella. Jones said he had been bad with the yellow jaundice, and thi tight I had better go to London with Levi, and accordingly we walked on. We had got about a mile from Kingston to wards London when Levi said that I had better go back by a road waggon, and gave me sixpence. I found a waggon.— Mr. Rolier's, of Godalmiu— at a public-house, and after wait ing I got back in that to Guildford. I went to the Wheat sheaf, and saw Junes there, who asked me where Levi Har wood was. I told hint he would not allow me to go any further than Kingston. Levi on returning from London came to the Wheatsheaf, and called Jones out about a quar ter-past eight. They were out together about twenty nil nutes„ and when Jones returned he asked if I was inclined for a walk. I said I was. He then said that the goods had fetched 6/., and Jones gave me three halfcrowns.

THE :PLUMLEY MURDER: The trial of the three men charged uith the murder of the Rev. Mr. llol'est at Friusley, having been appointed for this :norniig, the utmost anxietypas manifested to hear the proceedings. It was arranged that the court should not be opened until ten o'clock, but as early as eight the doors Of the court-house were literally besieged by an anxious crowd. At ten o'clock the Learned Judee took his seat on the bench, and the prisoners, Levi .11amood, 29, Samuel Har wood (his cousin), 25, and James Jones, 29, were placed at the bar. The indictment charged thent;w4th having, on the 27th of September, 1850,. at the parish 4 Ash, feloniously made an assault upon George Edward Wiest, and that theY,dis charged a pistol at bias containi . .e . a substance called:Se Mare We, and thereby gave him a m i 4 :1 wound of whielilie lan guished until the following slay, stud theie died. The prisoners all pleaded not gniilty!:" . ': ' Mr. c a Chambers, Q.C., Mr. Clarkeein, and Mr. Robinson appea -al or the Crown.

The Learned Counsel then proceeded to state to the jury the law with regard to the . tkitimony of accoinpliCes, and the corroboration which was required to be givel of their evidence; and heisting briefly nantted the facts of • the can t the following evielenee Name asltduCaVaile- - --- n'... '.. . -- Mrs. Caroline Holiest examined .by Mr. CLARIESON—I am the widow of the Rev. George Ectivard Holiest, the vicar of Frimley. On the night of the 27th of Septembe-, last year, we were residing at the Grove-house, Frimley. Mr. Holiest went to bed about half-past ten, and I retired to the bed room about five minutes to eleven. I locked the parlour door before I went up-stairs. The staircase door and the bedroom door were not locked. The bedroom door opened on my side of the bed. The curtains of the bed were open at the foot of the bed. We used to burn a light at night. A little before three o'clock in the morning I was awakened by an increase of light in the room, and heard the voices cf men at the foot of the bed. My hus band was also awakened, and we both got out of bed at the same moment. At the moment I was getting out of bed I saw two men in the room, and one of them called out to me to be still, and put his hand upon my knee. That man had a pistol in his hand—in his right hand. He held the pistol close to my face. The other man also had a pistol in his hand, and he pointed it at my husband, and said that if he resisted he would blow his brains out. The man wbo was standing by me also told me that he would blow my brains out if I made any noise. I noticed the voice of this man. After this I attempted to get out of bed to ring the bell, when the man who was on my side of the bed laid hold of me, and forced me upon the floor. 'This man had a light coloured mask upon his face. The other man also had a mask upon his face. The mask appeared of a darker colour. I tried to free myself from him, but was unable to do so. I think the same man was about me all the time. I knew him by a peculiarity in his voice - a sort of squeaking voice. While I was upon the ground I heard the report of a pistol in the room, on my husband's side of the bed. He was out of bed at the time. I could not see the flash of the pistol in consequence of the bed curtains being drawn. I did not observe what became of the second man I hail first seen. I was sitting upon the floor when the pistol was discharged, and the man was standing over me, with the pistol in his hind_ After the pistol was dis charged I got upon my knees, and then upon my feet, and r,truggled across the room 'owards Mr. Hollest's side. While the man was still holding me, I managed to get hold of a hand bell that was on the fender, and rang it. I then observed my husband struggling with two men near the fireplace. After 1 had rung the bell, the two men left Mr. Holiest, and went out of the room, and my husband went into the dress ing-room to get a gun, which was always kept there loaded. The other man followed his companions almost immediately after Mr. Holiest went cut of the room. In a very few mo ments Mr. Holiest returned to the bedroom, and he exclaimed " The fellow has shut me!" I bound up the wound, and did what I could to staunch the blood. This occurred cn the morning of Saturday, the 28th of September, and on the Monday following I saw the prisoner Levi Harwood at my own house in custody. I heard his voice upon this occasion, and I recognised it es being the same as that of the man who had acted towards me in the way I have described. It was my custom to ree,eve subscriptions lhr the Frimley National School, and a few days before this occurred I had received a quantity of capper money from the schoolmistress. Caroline Bullpen, and amongst this money there was a penny token. I have since seen that token in the presence of Inspecter Hollington, and I now recognise it as the same one that I re ceived on the Saturday before the robbery. Among other things that I lest on this night was a gold watch. which was taken from my dressing-table. I had also noticed among the coppers that there was one which had the name of Lloyd upon it in rather large capitals. An old-fashioned gold watch had else been taken from the dining-room, as well as same 'Wine and spirits from the cellaret. A cloak and two coats were also taken from the passage. The cloak was afterwards found upon the door steps, and two dresses, which had been taken from a spare bed-room, were wrapped up in it. A telescope and a decanter we e brought to me on the same morning by a carpenter in the village named Parker. All these articles were the property of my husband. Cross examined—l was awakened suddenly, and I imme diately observed two men standing at the foot of the lied. Mr. William Holiest, my husband's brother, has since shown me two green baize masks. I said upon one occasion that both the men I saw looked like sweeps. Levi Harwood is the man who struggled with me, and I came to that conclu sion frcm his voice and general appearance. The man, who ever he was, had abundant opportunity for shooting me if he had been so mind d. I thought that Smith was the man who was struggling with my husband, and who shot him. I think so still. Mr. BALLANTINE- You still believe be was the man who shot your husband ? Mrs. Holiest—l certainly do. That is my deliberate opinion given upon oath. By Mr. CrrAasocie—'l he fatal affray lasted but a very short time, not more than seven or eight minutes. I have never been raked to speak to any other person than Levi Harwood ant Smith, and I believe that the former was struggling with me, and that Smith was the man who was husband. dtle reports of firearms.

Davis, examined by Mr. RomersoN—l am a sur geon, residing near Frimley. In consequence of information I received on the morning of the 28th of September, I went to Mr. Hollest's house. I found him in bed, and with a gun-shot wound about an inch below the navel. I attended him until his death, which occurred at one o'clock on the fol lowing day. I made a post-mortem examination, and dis covered in the costs of the abdomen the marble which I now produce. The injwy deceased received was undoubtedly the cause of death. Richard Giles—T was in the service of the late Mr. llol lest at the time this occurrence took place. I slept at the top of the house. On the morning of the 28th September I was awoke by the report of a gun. I was about to go doWn stairs, when I heard a second report. I then saw my master, but at that thee I did not know he was wounded. Upon going down stairs I found that the thieves had got into the house by the scullery window. I after wards looked over the premieee on the outside, and on the gravel walk near the front dour I saw the prints of naked feet, which went in the direction of the lane to the entrance gate. I also saw at the front-gate the appearance as though some one had slipped down. Upon the lawn I found an umbrella, and also two pieces of stocking. I also found a piece of handkerchief over the scullery- window. I gave all these articles afterwards to Biudlecomb, the con stable. NOI ICE. MRS.

Cross-examined by Mr. BALLANTINE—When I received the three ha',f•crowns I had no money, and had been with out any for some days. On Tuesday I had a penny, on Wednesday I earned-Is. 3d. by work, on Thursday I had some coppers, and on Saturday 6d. from Levi Harwood. I had no notion why Jones wished me to find out the clergy man's house. Mr. BALLANTINE—Why did you not ask? Witness—Be cause I were in a hurry to find out whether there was a fight there or not. I was only thining of being in time to see the fight. I can't say if I asked for anything to eat or drink at the clergyman's house. I might have done so; but I was not angry when I left. Mr. BALLANTINE—Did you say to a person named Hon ley, that you had been up to the b— parson's, and that be would not give you so much as a drop of beer? Witness— I can't say that I did so or I did not. I should not like to swear that I did not. Mr. BALLANTINE —Did you not say you hoped something would happen to the b— b--- before the week was out, and that he might die within the week? Witness—Them is expressions I never made use ot. I might have said it or I might not. I will not swear. Mr. BALLANTINE—IIe did die within the week? Witness (confidently)—lt was not through me. Mr, BALLANTINE —We'll see presently. Witness—l should think it was, as near as I can say, about three o'clock when I was at Frimley on the Tuesday. I got back to Guildford about eight o'clock. I never inquired the price of a pistol at any time. Mr. BALLA NTINE—Pid you ever go by the name of Fly man ? Witness—Some people call me that. I did rot go to Mr. Blackman's shop on Wednesday, the 25th, or in my life. 1 don't know it. A boy came from his shop to say so. Mr. BALLANTINE—Were you not bargaining for a pistol in his shop? Witness—Never in my life; and the man said so, though the boy said I did. It was on Wednesday I was first asked to go to break into a house at Frimley, and I did not know what house was meant till I got there and was on the green, and they asked me where (he parson's house was. Mr. 13ALLANTINE—Did you not ask them what house they intended breaking into? Witness—No, because it did nut come into my head. Mr. BALLANTINE —You were indifferent as to what house? Witness— Just one as well as the other as I was after it.

Did they not say to you, " Flyman, you have been in this neigh bou hood, and must know all the houses?" Witness— I hey never asked such a question, and on my oath, with a clear conscience, I can say I did not know we were going to break into the clergyman's house till we reached Frimley. Did you not fad out how many servants lived at the clergyman's house before leaving for Guildford? Witness— I did not. I did not know w hat they were loading the pistols for. I was lighting my pipe at the time and I made no remark. I could not say what they were going to do with them. Eleanor Vanner—l was housemaid in the family of the deceased.

Witness Jones and Levi Harwood and I were standing at the foot of the bed—Mr. Holiest was getting off the foot of the bed, when the shot was fired. Levi was standing to my tight, and I had a candle in one hand and a watch in the other. Levi was about a yard and a• half ofF when he fired, end Mr. Holiest was going to make a grasp at him with hip right foot first. Mr. BALLANTINE—There was no struggle at the fireplace with Mr. Holiest? Witness—That I can't say—not to my knowledge. 1 had no struggle with him there. Levi, I think, did not. Samuel was at the door and could not. 1 can't say as to Jones, for he was last. Mr. BALLANTINE YOU made no attempt to save Mr. Holiest ? Witness—l did not know Levi was going to fire. I was looking at Mr. Holiest at t e time. Mr. BALLANTINE—Did any one fire at y 0 . ,? Witness— There was a report of a gun, but I don't know that any one was hit. I.:ham Smith was the next witness called. He wore the same forbidding, senseless expression as when on examination before the megistrates, combining in a remarkable degree the slight, active figure of the accomplished burglar, with a cast of countenance at once cunning, cowardly, and cruel. For a moment, on entering the witness-box, he looked abashed and tvieble to raise his eyes or to confront the furious glances which his associates darte l at him from the dock, but by degrees his confidence returned, and it was quite remarkable to observe the cool, easy style in which he surrendered himself to the examination-in-chief, and the half petulant air of injured innocence with which he replied to the searching interrogatories of the counsel for the accused. He said—Richard Trowler is my real name, and I am a labourer. On the 27th of September last I lived at the Wheatsheaf public house in Guildford, and Jones lodged in the same house. Levi Harwood put up at the Swan beer-shop in Gower-lane. I did not know where Samuel Harwood lived. Some days before the robbery (on Tuesday) I and Samuel Harwood went to Frimley expect log to see a tight. Jones gave me two dishes to take and find out where the clergyman lived, but did not to 1 me why. Samuel Harwood did not go into Frimley, I called at about sixteen houses, and at last found out where the clergyman lived. I did not sell the dishes there, but I did at a little low house on Frimley.green. I saw a female servant at the clergyman's. I met Samuel Harwood where I left him, and we went into the Wharf public-house bard by. We had a pot of beer, two pennyworth of bread, and a pennyworth of butter. After this we went towards Guild ford, Samuel parting company with me at IVoodhridge. I saw Jones the saute evening, and be asked me if I had found out where the clergyman lived, to which I said " Yes." That was all that passed on the subject then. The same night Jones asked me if I would go to Frimley ; that him and Sam were going; and I said I would go too. Nothing was said as to what it was for, and it was agreed that who evedwas first on the road should wait for the rest. On Fri day evening, at half-past five, I and Jones left the Wheat. shea', I going first with a hallaquartern loaf and half a pound of cheese. I looked down by the station and across the fields, and caught sight of Jones ahead of me, under Woodbridge hill. I never saw anything of the two flarwoode until I had got to within two and a half or three miles of Frimley, on the top of a hill which leads on to a common. We were there all four together, about nine or half-past nine o'clock Levi Harwood then loaded two pistols, which lie had iu his pocket, with marblea Jones asked him what he had got to put hi them, arid he said that he had three stone marbles.- one was rather larger than the other two, but they would fit the barrels. We all were standing close together, and must have heard what was said then. He asked for a piece of paper, which I forget whether I or Sam gave him. Wheri the pistols were leaded Levi put one in his pocket, and' gave one to Jones. I had the baize with which the masks were mule. Jones made his, and I made mine, and no others were made. Jones carried a small parcel, which he said contained a white Guernsey. We then went on tdwarde Frimley.

In The Sun of this evening appears an acrostic to Mr. Phelps, ascribed to " Charles Wilton." This trifle I wrote lour years ago for a daily dramatic publicati'n, called The Curtain, where it appeared (March 22, 1847) as one of a aeries of " Acrostics to Actors" that 1 contributed to that journal.

Robert Stephenson and Co., for the South-Eastern Railway, to work their Great Exhibition tratlie, made an experimental trip yesterday from London to Folkestone. The engine, with a first and second-class car riage attached, conveying Mr. Robert Stephenson, M.P.; Mr. James M`Gregor chairm an o f t h e S outh-Eastern Rail way; M r . P eter NV. Barlow, engineer in chief; and Mr. James Cudworth, locomotive superintendent, started from the London -bridge terminus at 12 15 P.m. No trial of speed could take place until the Red-hill junction was passed, a Brighten train being in front; but from this point to sn Ash ford the journey was performed, without stopping, average speed of sixty miles an hour. The trial proved highly highly satiqactory, the engine running at the greatest velocity without the slighest oscillation, and o e f v s e p n ee vi d. th T le h s , s motion than when travelling at a lower rate engine is constructed on Crampton's patent; oo -inch stroke the inside cylinders are 15 inches in diameter, with a We understand the driving wheels six feet in diameter. that Mr. It. Stephen7o i expressfd himse.f much pleased With the engine and the speed at which the journ performed. The shareholders of the Provincial Bank of Ire land held a Epecial meeting at the bank offices in old Broad street yesterday, when Matthias Wolverley Attwood, Esq., and Edward Fletcher, E‘q., were unanimouslv elected di rectors of the bank, in the place of G. R. Rribinson, M.P., llnd Alfred Thorp, Etq., both deceased. The accounts of the state of trade in the provinces daring the past week are sati , factory. At Manchester the market has been steady; in the woollen districts there has been a tendency to improvement, and at Birmingham there is full employment. The Irish linen markets are without alteration, The Duke of Beaufort, in answer to inquiries last evening in Arlington-street, continued indisro:ed, but his Grace wag, on the whole, not considered worse. The Mar quis of Worcester left town yesterday, to attend the assizes at Gloucester. " " ma y ---~•. ~~'~~-~ were on the road to Brighton. Were you charged with the murder there of Mr. Griffiths!

Witness—l never broke into any house in my life but Mr. Holiest's.— (Laughter.) Mr. CHAIINOCK—This was s our first attempt, then; and I must say you were very handy at it.- (Laughter.) Who -first showed you the Government proclamation of a reward? Witness —Th e master of the station-house' at Farnham. I heard there was to be 150/. reward-501. by the widow and 01. by the Government, and her Majesty s most gracious pa:don to any of the accomplices who would confess, except the one that fired the shot. Mr. Cmtaxocx—Don't you expeCt to get a free pardon? Witness--lf these bills are ected up to. Mr. CHAIINOCK—And a share of the reward too?

Cross-examined by Mr. WOOLLETT—Did you never ask Hollingston if the terms of the bill would be acted up to if you " peached ?" Witness -I don't know the meaning of the word. A Juryman—Could Mrs. Holiest see the three of you in the part of the room where she was? Witness—l could not say. When she got out of bed Jones thrust her up in a corner. The witness then withdrew, several hisses being raised at him as he left the court, and then greatly increasing in inten sity as he got outside. Mrs. Elizabeth Woods, housekeeper to a gentleman named Durbage at Frimley, a few days before the murder ptgchased two dishes of Hiram Smith. Mrs. Sarah Glazier, of the Wharf public-house nearFrini- ' ley—l remember a few days before the murder of Mr. Hol iest tyro perwma came to - any hoirse.- Smith very much reV. ; sembles one o f th ose men, at.d Samuel Ha rwoo d resemble the other. Charles Weston, a person i n th e serv i ce of a grocer named Panne!, at Guildford, proved that two or three days before the murder the prisoner Jones came to his master's shop and purchased a pennyworth cf gunpowder. Several witnesses deposed to having seen the prisoners and Hiram Smith on the road to Frimley on the night of the murder. Elizabeth Moll, a widow residing at Frimley, about a mile from Mr. Hollest's house, proved the finding of a piece of bread and beef In a ditch near a pathway from Frimley to Guildford. George Everett, keeper to Mr. Burrell of Frimley, proved the finding of &silver cup, two green baize masks, and the screw part of a centrebit. John Parker remembered, on Saturday, the 28th of Sep tember, passing the_ gate at Mr. H o li est ' s house, and saw hear the cyp ress tree a telescope and a decanter, which he picked up and took to the house and delivered to Mrs. Hol iest- He found there, also, a screwdriver. Oswald Jackman worked in September last on the railway between Guildford and \Yoking, and was on the bridge near the railway at Stranger's-common on the morning of the 28th of September last. At half-past six o'clock he saw two men on the footpath, whom he thought to be Samuel Har wood and Jones. Thomas Freeman, living at Stoke. about two miles from Guildford, saw a man pass towards Guildford at four o'clock in the morning of the 28th with a green wideawake hat. He reeegnised the prisoner Jones as the man. Joseph Plank, living a mile from Guildford, saw Simnel Harwood on Saturday, the 28th of September, in the morn ing, on Stranger's-common, not a quarter cf a mile from the railway, and walking towards Slifield's-green.

Some men hoard their wealth, and do nobody good, While by others it's foolishly spent; But INIOSEA, who long by the public have stood, Remember why money was sent ; By commanding the markets, they buy a large stock Of the best, when the prices are cheap, And they always take care that the public who flock To their mart, siia.:l the benefit reap. Thus the wealth that to some folks would be of no use, Is employed for the good of mankind, For MOSES and SON in their buying profuse, To deal fairly are always inclined. What they buy is the best, and its made up in style, And they pay for a thing when it's done; The smallest of profits content them the while, They sell fifty to any shop's one. See the price at which MOSES will sell a good coat, Or a vest, or a bat, or a shawl, Or trowsers, or boots, or a habit, and note, They are cheaper and better than all. Then MOSES and SON, may they long keep their health, . And of money the benefit reap, rei they share with the public the use cf their wealth, And supply them with clothes, good and cheap.

We understand that at the meeting on Saturday her Ma jesty's Commissioners examined into the report of the leak age-of the roof, and after hearing Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Cubitt on the subject, and communicating with Mr. Fox, the cont actor, they were of opinion that the leaking had been greatly e xaggerated, and her Majesty's Commissioners requested Mr. Cubitt to prepare a report for the next meeting of the Commissioners In the mean time we may state that but little doubt is felt that a week's fine weather would enable the contractors to make the building perfectly water-tight. Messrs. Fox and Henderson have made a curious dis covery recen' ly, which solves a mystery that bad for a long time puzzled them. Along a particular row of columns in the building there was observed to be a constant leaka g e when rain fell, from some cause which could not be de tected. At last they were induced to examine the line of drain-pipes which runs from column to column, and there they discovered a nail-bag securely wedged in by some mischievously-disposed] workman, and which by stopping the current of water of course caused the columns to overflow. The returns of packages up to the close of l ast week re ceived st the Crystal Palace are as follows : — From fore i g n countries. 6,233 ; from the colonies, 767 ; from the Channel Islands, 26; from our native contributors, 5,670.

The Royal Italian Opera opens on Thursday with Send. , rainide, Madame Grisi appearing as the Assyrian Queen, Maddle. Angri, as Arsace, and Signor Salvatore as Assur. Signor' Salvatore has never, we believe, appeared in this country, but has achieved a reputation as an excellent bari tone singer at the San Carlos, at Naples, and at the Grand Opera at Barcelona, to which latter establishment, be it re membered, we are indebted for Signor Tranberlik. Signor Salvatore i 3 engaged as, we presume, the successor to Tam burini, who is no longer a member of the Royal Italian. Opera corps. The other baritones engaged are Signor Ronconi and Signor Remmi. The corps operatique is, with very few exceptions, the same as last season. Madame Grisi, Madame Castellan, and Madame Viardot, will all appear in the course of the season, and a new so prano, Mademoiselle Guiseppina Morn, is engaged.. Made. moiselle Angri replaces Mademoiselle Do Marie as the con tralto, a change which tends greatly to strengthen the corps, and Mademoiselle Vintale, a new contralto, is to make her first appearance in this country. That most useful artiste, Mademoiselle Cotti, retains her position as seconda donna. The tenori are the same as last season, viz., Signori Mario, Enrico Maralii, Luigi Mei, , Soldi, and Tambeilik, and as bassi profondi we have Herr Formes and Signeli Tagliafico, Polonini, Gregorio, Fenari Rache, and, Bianchi, the last of whom is from the Italian Cpera at Berlin, and has • 1' er appeared in England. Costa, of course, conti nues •ts director of musi c , com p oser , and conductor; and the o-- ebestra is the same as heretofore. The military band is to be under the superintendence of Mr. Godfrey, and Mons. Alexandre is the maitre de bald. As during the last season, the performance of ballets will be confined to such as are incidental to operas or to short divertissements. Messrs. Grieve and Telbin continue to be the scenic artists, a 'sufficient guarantee of the perfect manner in which the scenic department will be conducted. The repertoire of the Rpyal Italian Opera consists of 33 operas, and each of the !giandest works in the repertoire will be performed, at islub once during the season of 1851. In addition we a e romised that during the present season, of the following -e%cdoperas, five (at least) will . be - produced, viz., a new ,O4fra, Auber (found d on Auber's new grand opera, me fast Prodiguc, now performing with uninterrupted success at the Academie Royale, at Paris); Sappho, Gouncd (a grand new opera, composed expressly for Madame Viardot, and about to he produced at the Ac3ddmie Royale, at Paris); 11 Dante Magico, Mozart (for the first time at the Royal Italian Opera); Les lflartys ' Donizetti (a gr an d o p era , com posed expressly for the Acacl6mie Royale, in Paris, for the first time in England); Euryanthe, Weber (for the first time in England); La Vestale, Spontini (for the first time at the R.yal Italian Opera); Fidello, Beethoven (for the first time on the Italian stage in England); Faust, Sphor (for the first time in England). Of these operas, II Prodigo (the Italian ver , ion of L'Enfant Prodigue), by Auber, and Sappho, by Gounod, are the ex• elusive property of the directors of this establishment, and will both be produced during the ensuing season. Such is the programme of the Royal Italian for the season of 1851, and should only five of the promised operas be produced it will be a brilliant one. AERIAL FLIGHT OF TITS DUKE OF BRUNSWICK. HASTINGS, MAucit 31.—The borough of Hastings was this day entertained by a spectacle unparalleled in the tee rnory of that respectable individual " the oldest inhabitant." For some days past " the veteran aeronaut," Mr. Charles Green, was known to be in the locality _preparing for an aerial flight across the British Channel. For this purpose the Victoria balloon was established in the gasworks, wait ing for an opportunity to rise. Rumour announced that a certain " Mr. Smith" was to ascend with the renowned Mr. Green, and make a descent —not upon the realms of Bruns wick, but upon the Gallic shore. The reason for this novel mode of crossing the water was said to reside in the stomaoh of the said " 37 r. Smith," who was a victim to the distress ing malady of sea-sickness, to avoid which he had deter mined upon trusting his life to the Under mercies of a balloon. For some days the wind was unpropiticue, and popular feeling was agitated with every variation of the aerial cur rents. Occasionally" Mr. Smith" was to be seen riding out with his secretary and a friend or two, and rem( ur did not scruple to ascribe to the very romantic-looking gentleman, with coal-black whiskers and moustache, a title somewhat .The local N ews more dignified th an th a t b y cc hi c h h e c h o se to he " c a ll e d" upon at the Victo r i a H o t e l, St. L eonar d' s . very discreetly humoured the fancy of e Mr. Smith," l es t, by publishing in print the title cf the incognito, the cuscep trble subject should be scare d away. of freienztei inflation t c h o e mm n o e r n t e b e , d an i d n the immediate vi c inity processsbeloe a aiworks. A tid e of spectators eery soon set in, s and s peculative innk eeper paid the town aat q i i i • o t e rn r i t n o g ti the e d f crier to announce to the inhabitants that the " Royal Victoria balloon" would ascend at ten o'clock. Inasmuch as the car the space of about three hours. Au immense was not ailixed till nearly one o'clock, this had the effect of keeping a thirsty multitude in the neighbourhood of the laud tsb;ectatore con oi s )f t he gasworks, large. In addition to the outdoor beholdets :of gregated upon the Castle-hill, which eon l g o ,u.u r en dit ,rk a and in the valley there was a crowd itnligesscweanse,aabiceotnoeildveitrnabesise the ertpiorioi c o e f ea t i h n e gs i f n r h o a n b i i tij ta ., n i t r s , o v f in H do as w t s - . The wind p reva il ed from the north 'and north-north-west, having, a westward t en d ency, and becoming somewhat light and variable at midday. The day was fine, and all seemed propitious. The gas was of excellent quality, but flowed in somewhat sloop.. At length the meter market a flow of aeout 32,L00 feet of gas, and the supply was thee stoed. The balloon, however, was still somewhat flaccid. pp At one o'clock Mr. Green proceeded to tit up his car. lie had provided an apparatus for enabling him to skim over the water at a fixed elevation. A gutta-percha line, above 200 ft.et long, iiad three logs of wood secured to it at intervals near ite extremity. The grapnel was attached to two me tallic air vessels, sufficient to enable it to float upon the v. ate*. Bladders of air were provided to be attacked to the grapnel line to aid it in floating. At length, after divers trials to ascertain the buoyancy of the huge machine, the aeronautic captain pronounced all to be ready. The crowd (which behaved with a degree of order highly creditable) was ordered to make way for " Mr. Saiitfe" who presently came upon the seent in the person of his Serene Highness the Duke - of Brunswick, accompanied by a German baron and a Spanish gentleman. Clad in a suit of oilskin, and com i ng u p on the crowd `° all of a rush," th e redoubtable " Smith" elicited a general exclamation of, " Well, be is a fine fellow!" Thu " line fellow" got into the car, the balloon was released, and up went Mr. Green and his passenger in admirable style, standing away to the south-east at a moderate pace, and remaining in sight for above half an hour, the moment of flight being 23 minutes past one o'olock. Soon after leaving the earth the balloon partially entered a cloud, but presently began to descend, and, when last seen, was only at a slight elevation from the surface of the water. 'l'be intention of Mr. Green was to let his logs and grapnel float upon the sea, so that he might be able to maintain an uniform level without loss of ballast or gas. Whether " Mr. Smith" and his captain landed at Dieppe, Etaples, Boulogne, or Calais, or took a westerly current for the German Ocean, remains to be seen. THE WP.U.EINGTON EIURDER.—Tbe trial of Patrick Lyons, and of Brielget Lyons, his wife, f o r th e w ilf u l mur der of Peggy Fahey, at Warrington, took place at Liverpool, yesterday, before Mr. Justice Cresswell.
