Neville, Lin Rayne, Harding, Basil Potter, Mr. and Mrs. Hermann Vezin, Milly Palmer, &c. 17 .1 1 • • - • Sun, 3.• LONDON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1868. QUEEN ISABELLA has sent a violent protest from Pau, in which she inveighs against the overthrow of the Government, and this will probably be the last communication that she will make to the Spanish authorities. The day has gone by when any of her wishes can prevail, or her opinion be studied. One satisfaction is that the country ap pears quite tranquil, and therefore there is no need to look for fresh disturbances just now. Of course there is a great deal to do before thiHgs can be called settled, but even already there is so much evidence of unanimity that it encourages us to hope, in the absence of anything like ill-will among the men who are in the ascendant. Marshal SERRANO has arrived at Madrid, which is a fortunate circumstance, as some uneasiness pre vailed on account of the armed multitude. Efforts are being made by the Junta to organise the armed populace. All accounts agree that order prevails iu Madrid, and it may safely be affirmed that seldom if ever has there been a revolution taking :place which caused so little disquiet in the capital of the country which it affected. A most enthusiastic reception was given to General SERRANO, and he was received at the station by the members of the Provisional Junta, and also by po pular deputations. He afterwards made a speech, in which he declared that ho had communication with General ESPARTERO and placed himself at his disposal. In all proba bility the Provisional Ministry, which will be composed to-day, will consist of Marshal SERRANO, General PRIM, and others. General ESPARTERO has not alluded to his coming to Madril in the answer be sent to Marshal SERRANO. In order to show their indifference the Government will, it is said, have the protest of Quee❑ ISABELLA printed and posted up all over the country. The Ministry will rule the country until the meeting of the Con st.tuent Assemby. Some doubts appear to prevail as to whether Gen. PRIM will join the new Government or not, but it is most likely that he will. As yet there has been no defection to complain of in the plans that have been so rapidly formed. Meanwhile people are busy iu their surmises and expectations as to whether any of the exiled claimants to the throne will succeed. These unfortunate victims of the ill fate which sometimes overshadows high as well as humble personages came to life in a disturbance like the present, and flutter about the scene of confusion in the desire of bettering their prospects, and perhaps of exchanging the cold shade of exile for the sunny splendours of a throne, un stable though it may be, and devoid of all real satisfaction as its barren honours may be. One thing is very certain in all this, which is, that there is no ghost of a chance for Queen ISABELLA ever being restored. Amid all the different sections not one is in her favour, and nowhere is regret ex pressed for her precipitate downfall. No sovereign ever left a land over which she had held sway for more than a generation, after having given rise to so little favour or friendly feelings, as Queen ISABELLA has done. She seems to have kept power by suf ferance for a long time, and at last by the mere patience of her worn-out subjects. It is easy to find in France and Italy many who still adhere to the fortunes and advocate the claims of departed rulers, but even in this early stage of her defeat ISABELLA appears to the world in the mortifying character of a fallen ruler without friends to con dole with her, if they cannot fight for her. If she has any private councillors they had better use their influence to persuade her into accepting her position with the best grace she can, and not to create new difficulties for herself, by making despotic attempts to do what is impossible, but which may in its very failure complicate her position still more, and aggravate the evils from which she has to suffer. Any European country almost may be her refuge if she knows how to keep quiet, but if she expends her resources in fomenting strife and promoting the progress of sedition, the Powers of Europe will agree that she is no very pleasant or profitable visitor to their territories, and that the sooner she seeks other quarters the better. Sad has been the fall of the last rulers of the BOURBON line in Europe, but it will not undo the past or remedy their future position in history if they occupy themselves in vain endea yours, and exhibit zeal without discretion. So far as we can see as yet no successor is likely to be put in ISABULA'S vacant place, an will not be for some time to come very likely. The Spanish people will be very cautious how they again entrust so much to one ruler, and they can hardly be blamed if they exhibit some distrust after the specimen they have bad for so long before them ; but when once a change has been made, it is easier to keep to the safe line of policy. Notwithstanding the uproarious disposition of the good folks at Crecliton, who are much more in clined to hear their own voices than those of the rival candidates for their suffrages, the right hon. the Secretary of State for India contrived on Saturday to make a very sensible and straightfor ward speech. To judge from the demeanour of the crowd who gathered under the windows of the Angel Inn, and who certainly were anything but angelic in their manners, Sir STAFFORD NORTII COTE'S chance of a seat would appear to be very remote indeed. Luckily, however, for the Secretary and the Government, he is already the chosen representative of this very stormy constituency ; and as we must not accept the noisy gentlemen who pelted the speakers with eggs and apples, and endeavoured to enlighten each other's minds by the agency of sticks, it is very pos sible that the new Parliament will still find Sir STAFFORD NORTIICOTE M.P. for Crediton. The borough, it would seem, prides itself on its peculiar Liberal qualifications, but this is no reason why it should eject its sitting member. Sir S. NORTIICOTE has always been a consistent advocate of Free Trade, and on :most of the ques tions of the day he holds opinions more ad vanced than most of his colleagues. If we refer to his own address on Saturday, we find him professing his adherence to constitutional Liberalism. " I have always said this—that true Liberalism is the creed of England. .1 maintain that it is impossible to govern a great country like this .upon any other principles than true Liberal principles." To Radicalism, however, by which he understands a thorough change in our institutions, he declares himself to be entirely opposed. The question, ne says, justly enough, is not what is suited to France or America, but what is suited to England. "You may, if you please, admire the Atneran institutions, but you cannot make this country L i re America. You might destroy what is good in America, but you cannot bring in what is good in America - and necessarily would be good here." This is a truth which some of our wholesale Reformers are very apt to forget, and they also fail to remember that they look at American institutions for the most part in the ab stract—as a matter of theory, and not of practice. Reading written words describing what occurs in another hemisphere is something very different from living among and under the institutions they admire. The Americans, like ourselves, find plenty to criticise in their own country, and would be very ready to admit that all is not perfect at Washington any more than at Westminster. If we could find a community in which every man was perfectly satisfied with everything about him, and had no desire to extend, or amend, or alter any of his political relations, we should probably find that such a people were either very dull of intel lect or sadly deficient in public spirit. Because there are grievances to be redressed, abuses to be remedied, and deficiencies to be sup plied, that is no reason for denouncing our whole system and decrying our constitution. It is only the evidence that our institutions are neces sarily imperfect, as all human institutions must be, more imperfect possibly than need be ; but until we have each done all we can towards amending them we have no right to turn aside in disgust. Sir SFAFFORD NORTHCOTE, while opposed to the disendowment of the Irish Church, frankly admits that he thinks great changes are advisable. Quoting au old farmer's proverb, he reminded his hearers that " one year's seeding is seven year's weeding ;" and that we must remember that we could not bring harmony to Ireland in a day or a year after the long course of misgovernment. The land question, for his own part, had, he thought, more to do with the internal peace and prosperity of the country than the Church question. There was, he remarked, a great difference between the tenure of land in England and in Ireland. llere the landlord generally makes the improvement ; there, the tenant. We are glad to find Sir S. NORTIIOTE strongly advocating the right of the tenant to some security that the capital he expends on improvements shall not be lost to him. Sir STAFFORD NORTIICOTE affirms that the present Government had in contemplation a bill on this very subject at the opening of the last session, but the pressure of other matters pre vented them from bringing it forward. At any rate, whatever the issue of the struggle, it is en couraging to find that the real grievances of the s'ster country are becoming more and more gene rally recognised by men of all parties. The new Parliament, whatever school of politicians it may accept as its leaders, can hardly fail to acknowledge the importance of legislation for Ireland, and we hope its members will approach their difficult task with judgment and moderation, remembering, as Sir S. NORTHCOTE observed of national education, that such questions cannot be settled in a hurry. Lord STANLEY has issued his address to the electors of King's Lynn, in which he relies on the " unvaried kindness" that has been shown him for the last twenty years, and announces his intention of seeking re-election at their hands. After de claring that their favour has been the object of his Parliamentary life to deserve, the noble lord inti mates his intention of explaining publicly to them before long his views on the leading questions of the day. On Saturday the Hon. F. STANLEY, one of the Conservative candidates for the North division of Lancashire, addressed the electors at Broughton. In the course of his obser vations he referred to the subject of the Commission on the Irish Church, and said that they had been frequently taunted by their op ponents on the subject, they being fond of declaring that it was all an excuse for delay, and no good could result from the matter in the end. This was the more inconsistent on their part, because Earl RUSSELL himself was mainly instrumental in bring ing about the Commission, and his party at the time laid great stress upon the importance of the unlertaking. Mr. STANLEY said very truly that the length of time which had elapsed while the Commissioners made their inquiries should be a subject of congratulation to those interested in the affair rather than otherwise, because it showed that they were devoting their best attention to the work before them. The unanimity which prevailed among the Commissioners, with a trifling exception, is also an encouraging sign of the spirit in which they conducted their labours; and in considering this part of the subject we must remember that they were chosen from members of both political parties, with the expectation that they would re port on the composition of the Irish Church as widely and impartially as possible. Taking all things into account, it certainly seems very unrea sonable that those who were onco so eager about the appointment of this Commis tion, and so certain of the efficacy of its researches, should now seek to deny its merits, and gainsay any advantages that may accrue from its labours. They might in common fairness have allowed it to be laid before Parliament first of all, but there is no reasoning with prejudice. Mr. GLADSTONE and his immediate followers have out stripped the natural course of events in the career they have taken, and thus they seek to put them selves right before the public by looking with in difference or contempt upon the very things that a short time ago were all engrossing with them. Such conduct is indeed inconsistent, but the worst of starting on such a hazardous track as the leader of the Opposition has done is that it necessitates all sorts of contradictions, and confuses those who try to understand the principles which guide lead ing politicians. _ English purses are always ready when a cry of want or wretchedness makes itself heard from any quarter, and certainly there could hardly be a more distressing or urgent appeal than the circular just issued on behalf of the sufferers from the earth quake in South America. On the first shock of the intelligence the public attention wi i ss natnrally ens grossed by the immense number of victims. When we reckon the deaths of the sufferers by tens of thousands it becomes difficult to realise the full extent of the calamity, Rut since it was a whole vast tract of country which was desolated by the destructive earth quake and its attendant calamities, it becomes evident that the number of those who perished in the immediate catastrophe must have been very much less than the number of miserable survivors. These unfortunate persons, inhabitants of the southern cities, towns, and villages, are estimated at about half a million. They have been left not only without home or shelter, but actually without the means of subsistence. Not only have they seen their houses and places of business engulphed or overthrown, their property swept away by the terrific waves which followed on the earthquake or consumes by the conflagrations which raged around, but the very crops have been destroyed, which might have appeased their hunger, and the streams have slaked their thirst. The Government of the Republic, and the inhabitants of those cities which have been for tunate enough to escape the shock, are exerting themselves to the utmost to alleviate the sufferings of this vast army of wretchedness and destitution ; but the work is a stupendous one, and the Peru vian Ministers in France and England have done well to bring the claims of these unhappy people under the public notice. The attempt to describe the picture presented by an important part of Peru, for merly full of life, gaiety, and commercial activity, would, we are assured, be altogether useless ; but the mere fact of the numbers of cities and towns destroyed during the calamities of the middle of August is sufficient to convince the most indifferent of the exceptional nature of the case. The appeal of the Ambassadors reminds the benevolent that, never since the discovery of America itself, has such a catastrophe occurred. Earthquakes of lesser ex tent have, of course, been comparatively common ; but such a calamity as the present stands out in the records of human history. We cannot doubt that the appeal for aid will be promptly and liberally responded to in France and England ; and we trust that some at least of the more pressing necessities of the distressed population will be thus spsedily alleviated. COMPLIMENTARY DINNER TO GEORGE CR UIKSHANK. The officers of the 48th Middlesex Rifle Volun teers entertained their late ,lieutenant-colonel, Mr. George Cruikshank, at a complimentary dinner at the St. James's-hall Restaurant, Regent-street, on Wednesday evening last, .on the occasion of his re signing the command of the corps. Lieutenant colonel C. B. Vickers presided, Major W. E. Williams occupying the vice-chair. Among his personal friends seated beside the guest of the even ing were Col. Chesney, R.E.i ; Capt. Chauncey, R.A.; D. Stobbing ; and W. Ed. Smith, F.R.S. ; John Paget, Esq., Mr. Oswald * Brierty, Rev. J. 0. Haldane Kingoldrum, &c. The chaplain of the regiment, the Rev. Dr. Rogers, was present. The Honorary Secretary, Captain Roger, read a letter of apology from Major-General M'Murdo, of the garrison of Diiblin Castle, expressing much regret at Isis inability to attend the banquet to his friend George Cruikshank, and alluding in strong terms to the debt of gratitude due to him in having been mainly instrumental in raising such a body of Volunteers as the 48th Middles 2x. L otters of apology were also:received froni others of Mr. Cruikshank's friends, who, through unavoidable absence from town, temporary residence on the Continent, &c., had been prevented from attending. These were Col. Erskine, Capt. King Hall, R.N., C. 8., Lieut.-Col. Bertrand Payne, John Ruskin, George Macdonald, Horace Mayhew, Mr. Tom Hood, Mr. Chas. A. Howell, Mr. Francis Fuller, Mr. Francis Bennock, and others. After the usual toasts had been given from the chair, Colonel Vickers proposed the health of the guest of the evening. He referred to the zeal and ability with which Mr. Cruikshank had conducted the affairs of the regiment, touching gracefully on the inci dents of the eventful career of the great artist, his world-wide reputation, and his zeal in the cause of social reform. By the power of his pencil he had corrected abuses and mitigated the severity of our penal code. Speeches of much interestiwere delivered by Col. Chesney, Dr. Stubbing, Mr. Paget, Major Williams, and others. . _ Mr. CRUIKSHANK, in a rich and suitable man nea, acknowledged the many well-merited compliments paid him by the leading members of the company, explaining that though his patriot ism had in no way abated, he had been left to the choice of one of two alternatives—either to retire from the command or abandon his pro fession, and so resolved to hand over to his friend, Colonel Vickers, his battalion, numbering on the roll upwards of 600 men• He was seventy-six years of age, and bad reason of thankfulness that neither his mental faculties nor physical endurance were consciously impaired. Mr. 11. Sydney, the gifted comic singer, de lighted the guests with some impromptu compoai tions, illustrative of the occasion. The whole affair passed off in a highly successful manner. THE REPRESENTATION OF EDINBURGH.—The London Scotsman understands there is every probability of a requisition being made to Mr. Moncrieff to continue in the representation of the city of Edinburgh. This, of course, can only be done on the supposition that the hon. and learned gentleman will throw up his chances of being elected by the Glasgow and Aberdeen Universities for the purpose of again contesting his present seat. The story has given some uneasiness to the Independent party. BREAKING A RULE.—For years past it has been thelrule that direct commissions without purchase are given only to those who pass a high standvd at Sandhurst, or to men from the ranks. Youths with the most telling claims, as regards the services of their fathers, have been refused ensigncies without purchase, on the ground that all non purchase vacancies are reserved for these two classes. How, then, are we to intarprot the appointment of the lion. R. Stapleton Cotton to the Scots Fusilier Guards in last Tuesday's Gazette? Is it a mistake, or are we to tell the old and deserving officers to apply for commissions without purchase for their sons, notwithstanding the pub lished documents and usage of the last few years, which clearly indicate that application is useless ?—Army and Navy Gazette. MUSICAL ITEMS.—Verdi is writing an opera on the story of Falstaff. The violinist Auer has been ap pointed a professor in the Conservatoire at St. Petersburg. The civil tribunal of Milan has decided that, by an Act of Parliament, the Government are bound to maintain and keep open the La Scala opera-house.-3lusical Standard. SAILING OF THE GREAT EASTERN.—The Great Eastern, which has been lying idle in the Morsoy for several months past, sailed for Shereoss on Saturday. She has been chartered by a French company to lay a cable between France and America, and will leave Sheer ness early next spring for that purpose. During the past few weeks she has taken on board between 4,000 and 5,000 tons of coal, and has been partly provisioned. At Sheer ness she will be entirely " gutted," and will be fitted with tanks for the purpose of carrying the cable. She was under the command cf Sir J. Anderson. APOTHECARIES' lIALL.—The following gentlemeu passed th it examination in the science and practice of medicine, and received certificates to practise, on Thurs d+y, the Ist inst. : -John Albert 8011, Rochester, Kent, of St. Thomas's Hospital; George Robinson, Spilsby, Lin colnshire, of the London Hospital ; Henry Howell Spratt, 11.R.C.5., England, Groytown, New Zealand, of the Middlesex Hospital.

Lord Lytton's New Play, A NeW Play by a great author on Sattirday even ing filled.the Lyceum from floor to ceiling, The weather, which was cold and. drizzly, went for nothing. The deadness of the early autumn season, when London is still faceVously spoken of as the Deserted Village, went equally for nothing. Play goers, old and young, men of letters, artists, critics, people of faehien . r n m ern]) er of the middle classes i the`former in the dress-circle, the latter in the pit, or whg e t our French neighbours' term. the parterre, the polloi in the gallery, all thronged to witness . the new piece which had for some time been announced fur pepreee4 4ion. And no wonder. Fe.ir—ithat new piece —was, it not from the hand of one of the greatest authors and (he must forgive us the phrase) unquestionably the most versatile genius of our age —Bulwer the Novelist—Sir Edward the Poet of King Arthur—Lord Lytton the Conservative Orator and Statesman. Author and Administrator, Scholar and Artist in the truest and fullest sense of the word —Bulwer Lytton, already by right of five plays of sustained celebrity, had long since secured to him self a high and, as it now happens (both Sheridan Knowles and Douglas Jerroll being numbered amongst the dead), a wholly unrivalled reputation among living dramatists. It is seventeen years since Lord Lytton's last appearance before the public in that capacity, namely, as a dramatist. And than, namely, in 1851, it was in furtherance of a benevolent design, to wit the foundation of the Guild of Literature and Art, that Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, as our author was then, built up, with admirable ingenuity, an altogether exceptional drama in five acts, entitled " Not so Bad as we Seem, or Many Sides to a Character"—a drama in which the cause of those typefied in the world of letters by the exquisite creation of David Fallen was advocated with ini mitable persuasiveness, While at the same time several more or less appropriate characters were called into existence for the express purpose as it seemed of distribution afterwards for impersonation among an admirable groupe of amateur actors, brother artists, and eminent centemporaries, several among them also personal friends of the dramatist —men of mark like Charles Dickens, Do ugl as Jerrold, John Forster, Mark Lemon, Aegustus Egg, Charles Knight, and one or two others. Strictly speaking, it is now nearly thirty years, it is at least eight and twenty years since a now play entrusted to a regu lar company of professional actors (tier Majesty's servants as they were formerly called) was last announced—in 1840—as forthcoming from the pen of Bulwer. Then it was that there was repreeented for the first tine, on the boards of the II Limarket, the brilliant and now classic Coll3ly of " Money," a comely that has long since taken is place securely among the masterpieces of the in olera dramatic school, among the most fiaished performale es of Wycherly, Sheridan, Murphy, Cohnan, Morton, and bat one or two others of more recent date. Within the year prior to the one which witnessed the earliest impersonation of Alfred Evelyn by Mr. Macready—(" Money" having been prod iced as we have seen in 1810)—within the year 183 two of Balwer's Five-act D. 73. 11:13 were brought out in rapid succession —" Richelieu" and " Tee Sea Captain." Only one year before that, viz., in 1838, "The Lady of Lyons"—struck off at a heat in a fortnight—having signalized by an excep tionally brilliant success the protean adaptability of its author's many-sided genius. Two years before that, he had produced his earliest play—one as charmingly written as anything his dexterous hand as ever achieved, the historical play in five acts of "The Duchess de la Valliere." Reverting, how ever, to what has just now been remarked of the year 1839, namely, when we spoke of it as one within which the indefatigable creator of so many works of imagination, threw off rapidly one after another "Richelieu" and " The Sea Captain"--in that last-men tione 1 play it is now especially worthy of note that the root-idea of the dra'natie ul tster piece produced an Satu:day evening is discoverable. Not that "'rue Rightful heir" is, by any means, a mere modification of " The Sea Captain." From beginnin; to end the draml now pro laced is a new work altogether. It is rewritten through mt. And, but that the play of twenty-eight years ago had merits of its own, which were, however, anything but generally recognised at the time of its production, the later work of art which may be said to have now grown out of it, is so vastly its superior in every particular, that we might almost be tempted to echo, in regard to it, the title of one of Lord Byron's least known dra matic effusions —" The Deformed Transformed." Although intensely and essentially a purely imagi native production, "The Rightful Heir?' is a roman tic drama, the very atmosphere of which is historical and patriotic. Its incidents are recounted as oc curring in thereign of Queen Elizabeth. The precise period is that, for ever memorable in our annals as the epoch of the Spanish Armada. Referring as the plot does to the almost startling abruptness of the final descent upon our coasts of that great naval arma ment, popular remembrance has been recently called, not injudiously, as wo conceive, t 3 a passage in the " History of England," in which are related the events immediately preceding the actual arrival, all on a sudden (and the signal defeat thereupon) of the Grand Armada sent out for the subjugation of England by the Spanish Government. First came the unlooked-for fate of the Marquis of Santa Cruz, the Spanish Admiral--seized with a fever and rapidly deceased. Then followed the departure from Lisbon on the 29th of May, 1588, full of hope and alacrity, of the magnificent armament which the very day afterwards was scattered by a tempest and in part destroyed. Consequent upon the tidings received of those disastrous gales encountered by the Spanish Armada in the English Channel— compelling the remnants of the fleet to put back for repairs into the harbour of Corunna —Lord Howard of Effingham, then, in his capacity as Admi ral of England, Commander-in-Chief of the Eng lish Fleet, was ordered on July 8 to dismantle im mediately the four largest ships in the royal navy— to wit, the Triumph, the White Bear, the Elizabeth Jonas, and the Victory. Fortunately—as history relates—he ventured to disobey, offering to beir the expense out of his own private fortune. Hence—in spite of the great Queen's ill-timed parsimony— England, when at length the dire emergency occur red, found herself prepared to meet the foe at the flash of the first signal gun, announcing the approach of the invader. Under the Lo r d Ad m i ra l th ere were then serving in the English fleet as volunteers the Earl of Cumberland and the Lords Henry Seymour, Thomas Howard, and Edmund Sheffield—Drake being appointed Lieutenant of the Fleet, while the best ships were, as is related on the autho rity of Murdin, allotted to Hawkins, Fro bisher, and other mariners, " who, in voyages of commerce, or piracy, or discovery, had acquired experience, and displayed that contempt of danger, and that spirit of enterprise, which had long been characteristic of the British sailor." Such is the heroic situation in which, such are the heroic contemporaries among whom, Lord Lytton has placed the hero of his new romantic play, Vyvyan, Captain of the Dreadnought, a privateer. The impersonation of this fine chivalric character cannot fail very materially to enhance the reputation already won for himself daring the course of last season by Mr. Bandmann, through his picturesque reading of the central figure in the absurd drama of " Narcisse." Before coarneating, however, any further upon the performance of Saturday evening, it will be as well to mention here at once that the following is the cast of the principal characters in " The Rightful Heir" : Lord Bsaufort ••• ...

While the actors evidently vied with each Qther yu Saturday in tl4;Fe - 4 - ,dflav9ur tq cle full tistioe so far as lay wit lam their capacities to the imaginings of the dra matist, it should 1:4 SIN at q1:40.0, that three of them in particular aro entitled to the highest commenda tion ; these three being, it need hardly be said, Mr, and Mrs. Hermann Vezin and Mr. Bamdmann, What ever the part may b 3 that is allotted to him, Mr. Hermann Vezin always shows hiuself to be a true and sterling artist. Ms itudersmatiou of Sir Grey de Malpas was in many portions of it very flue in deed, was here and there startlingly effective, and was certainly myst thoughtfully and conscien tiously renderel throughout. As to Mrs. Hermann. Vezin's L tdy Montreville—the true heroine of the piece—it was from first to last a charming represen tation. Several of the seen cc between herself and Vyvyan, more particularly the great scene of all, the one towards the close of which her eldeit-born, with his foot planted upon his ancestral hearth, claims his birthright, and bids his anther if she lists command her menials to expel him by force from the home of his forefathers, proved to be not only effective in the highest degree but exquisitely affecting. The only noticeable hitch of any kind occurring on 'Saturday evening was in the repre sentation of the fourth act, which—having (on the first night) in parts been bungled through—comes, as we cannot but think, to a conclusion so abrupt as to be almost bewildering. The staggering of Vyvyan backwards down the precipitous pass looked more like an accidental stumble than an intended catastrophe. Mr. Neville's inadequate expresssion of anything like dismay at what thus happens probably tended most effectually to bring about this intolerable anti-climax ; but in this the actor may be presumed to have been at least consistent, seeing that his embodiment of the cha racter of Lord Beaufort was throughout chiefly re markable for its feebleness. The plot, or story, of this new romantic play of "The Rightful Heir "is, as we have already observed, nearly identical with that of " 121 - _e Sea Capt tin.." But the structure of the piece, the structure of the verse, the incidents, the dialogue, have 'been one and all of then most carefully re-conceived and re modelled—have, in point of fact, with inimitable skill and admirable dexterity, been re-elaborated throughout. Touches of nature, there ar e scattered lavishly through this minutely prepared master piece: but in reference to those spontaneous evidences of genius, we might say, in allu.,ion to the author of this drama Thy art"—(as Ben Jonson said of Shakspere's when apostrophizing the great Poet in immortal words)--" must enjoy a part"— " For though the poet's matter ueturo be His art deth make the fashion; and that he Who casts to write a living line must sweat (Such as thine are), and strik.o the second heat Upon the 111130 . 3 anvil ; to :u the sane, And himself with it that he thinks to frame ; Or for the laurel he may gain a scorn ; For a good poet's male, as well as born." It should be here mentioned, as affording conclusive evidence of the triumphant success of Lord Lytton's new play, that the noble author was summoned to the front of his box at the end of the second act to ackao \,vledg 3 the plaudits of the audience, pl au lits water w ore accorded to him by acclamation. The inci dent of so early a call for the author is certainly most 111111311a1, if it be not in leel altogether unex ampled. It could hardly be wo idere I at, however, seeiag the enthu s ias m that oa Saturday eveaing, was awakened at the close of that S3.:):11 act by the reading of (4 leen Elizaboth's heart-stirring procla mation to her people oa the annyan3anum.; of the approach of the Ar.o ti t— t p:oolam ation ad mirably declaimed in every syllable of it by the skilled voice of Mr. Baalmann. Tae call for Lord Lyttoa's appearance at se early a period of the eveaiag was so unexpec':,ed of its kind that it was for a long time unanswered. The summons however, became almost, one might say, imperative; and when the author had at last bowed his acknow ledgments, it was significant of the patriotic ardour the above mentioned " situation" of his contrivance had awakened, that one enthusiastic voice was heard calling to the orchestra for "Rule Britannia." Again, at the conclusion of the piece, upon the fall of the curtain at the close of the fifth act, after the principal performers had been called be fore the footlights to receive the approbation to which they were entitled, another unanimous and long sustained call for the author, constrained Lord Lytton—after some considerable interval had elapsed consequent we believe upon his having already quitted his box—to return to it aul thence bow h's acknowledgments once more to the applause of the crowded and delighted house. Suc cess was never more legitimately achieved by a dramatist, and could not certainly have been more enthusiastically manifested. Everything that could in reason have been done beforehand to ensure the efficient production of the piece upon the boards of the Lyceum—in the way, that is, of scenery, costumes, and general appointments —was done, and that, too, thoroughly well, under Mr. E. T. Smith's enterprising management, and it was therefore because of their recognition of all this that the audience before their dispersal sum moned that gentleman, in his turn, before the footlights to receive the evidence of their approba tion. As showing the unanimous recognition of the triumph achieved by Lord Lytton's new play on Saturday the following extracts are taken from the chief of our contemporaries : The Times re narks that " The Rightful Heir is not a work written for the sake of scenery, but essentially a drama, admirably constructed and beautifully written, with a view to the employment of strictly dramatic means." Adding that " the SUCCES3 of the piece was proclaim3d with boisterous vehemence." The Morning Post, after observing that in his new play Lord Lytton " has achieved a triumph which is worthy of the author of Richelieu' and ' The Lady of Lyons,'" aids that " the presence of his lordship in one of the proscenium boxes was a most welcome sight to the audience, and the en. thusiastic cheering he received at the end of the second act, and at the terminatioa of the play, afforded the most gratifying assurance that the poetical drama, of which he is one of the very few exponents, still finds abundant favour in their eyes." - The Star speaks of " The Rightful ILir" having produced, at any rate up to the eal of the third act, an extraordinary impression ; aid remarks upon Lord Lytton having at the termination of it received a second enthusiastic roar of wsilcom. 3. The Standard says that "it is no great venture to predict, that in both England and Atnerica ' The Rightful Heir' will become as popular as any of the other plays with which its author's natro is associated." The Telegraph, in its closing sentence, thus em phatically proclaims the triumphant success achieved on Saturdty by the author and impersonators of the new drama—" The play," it says, " was throughout hailed with continuous plaulits, the recalls were numerous throughout the evening ; and both at the termination of the second act and at the close of the play the &maul for the appearance of the author was so vehemently raised that on each 030.13i011 Lord Lytton ha l to bow fro.n his private box amidst a roar of acclamations." The Daily News in the same way makes mention of the principal actors having been received with great enthusiasm by a full house, au I Lard Lytton having t.) Low from his box more then once in the course of the evening. The [horning 2deertiser—after referring to Tnackeray's ant Tom Ingoldsby's caricatures of the " Sca Captain" nearly thirty years ago as having seemed, until now, almost to verify the French maxiai that le ridicule tue--asserts positively enough that the event has proved quite 4 otherwise : " for," it says, ' 1 - the author has in The Rightful Heir,' produced on Satur day evening at the Lyceum, rewritten, re modelled, and recast the drama, and, most assuredly, obtained a revision and reversal of the verdict of 30 years ago—' The Rightful Heir' establishing his claim and title to the inheritance of honour and fame on his renewed dramatic trial." The Era of yesterday records that " On the fall of the curtain the applause was spontaneous and enthusiastic. First the curtain was raised to re veal once more upon the stage the principal per formers. Then arose a vehement demand for the author, who had already complied with a similar dmonstration at the end of the second act, and who now, after a brief delay, reap peared in his private box, and thrice courteously acknowledged the recognition which burst from all parts of the house." Oar contemporary the Era—speaking with all the authority of the theatrical organ—remarks in another part of its elaborate notice of the new play —" That the result was altogether as satisfactory as the illustrious author, the actors, and the manager could desire may be at once freely acknowledged, and the Lyceum is evidently now in possession of an attrac tion which will carry the season most triumphantly on to Christmas." More probably carry it on (we are tempted to add) beyond iChristmas, and far on into the season of 1869, when London shall have refilled after the meeting of the new Parliament.
