AT a MEETING of the Board of Baptist Ministers, residing in and near tits cities of London and West minster, held in the Baptist Mission House, Al oorgate-street, nb. 12, 1850, the following resolutions were passed unanimously : 1. That in the judgment of this Board, the marriage of a widower with the sister of his deceased wife is scripturally lawful, and ought not to be prohibited by human legislation. 2. That in the judgment or this Board, the Act of sth and 6th William IV cap. 54, is improperly restrictive of the rights of indivi duals, and in many cases productive of immorality. 3. That this Board has learnt with pleasure that the Committee of the Kaptist Union has issued a circular, recommending the churches is petition for the passing of an Act legalizing the class of marriages thus prohibited, and hopes that they will generally comply with the suggestion. 4. That a petition in conformity with the preceding resolutions be presented to both Houses of Parliament, signed on behalf of the Board by the Chairman and Secretary; and that Mr. Hinton, with the Chairman and Secretary, be requested to prepare it.

Why the name alone is almost sufficient to secure the success of a one-act farce, and when that farce i 3 produced at the Adelphi, and performed by Mr. Wright, Mr. Paul Bedford, Mr. Worrell, Miss Emma Harding, and Mrs. Frank Matthews, its success must be certain—and such was the case last night. My Precious Betsy is Mrs. Bobtail (Miss Emma Harding) and Fhe is the "precious B e tsy" o f M r . B o btail ( Mr. Wright), a tallow-chandler at Southampton. Betsy had once lived as servant to a Doctor Brown, and the doctor, at his death, leaves her a legacy. This goosi luck, however, is the source of an Iliad of woes to Betsy and • her husband. Their neighbour Wagtail (P. Bedford), envious of their wealth, determines to destroy their happiness by insinuating in the Southamp ton Paul Pry that the affection of the defunct Brown for Betsy was not altogether of a platonic character; this rouses the jealousy of Bobtail, and our tallowy Othello is still further tormented by the mysterious visits of a Mr. Langford (Mr. Worrell). The vagaries of Wright a*: a farcical Othello, and of Paul Bedford as a farcical lago, may be imagined ; they kept the house in a roar, and, after half an hour of the broadest fun, all is explained, and all ends happily. The piece is very strongly cast. Miss Emma 'Hard ing as Mrs. Bobtail was admirable, and •we could easily excuse the jealousy of the tallow-chandler for his precious Betsy. Mr. Worrell acted the Mysterious Visitor to the life ; and Mrs. Frank Matthews, as Mrs. Wagtail, the wife of the author of all the mischief, to whom the jealous, wrathful, and destructive Bobtail makes love, by way of reprisal, .was richly comic. .The house, as usual, was crammed.

W. OLYMPIC THEATRE. A new three-act tragedy, entitled The Noble Heart, was produced here last evening, in the most perfect manner, both as regards acting and mise en scene, and with, consequently, the most brilliant success. The author is Mr. G. H. Lewes, a gentleman well known for his intimate acquaintance with, and thorough appreciation of, the great works of the great Spanish dramatists—works which Corneille thought it not beneath him to adapt to the French stage, and which our own dramatists of the Elizabethan age studied as models of dramatic composition. The Noble Heart bearr, as might have been expected, evident traces of the favourite studies of its author. The plot. is extremely simple, but at the same time striking ; and Mr. Lewes has most judiciously avoided the introduction of any underplot, so that the whole interest concentrates itself on the principal personages, and is never once broken. The hero, Don Gomez de la Vega (Mr. G. V. Brooke), is a Spanish nobleman, proud, chivalrous, and with the most romantic notions of honour. He is about fifty years of age, but still susceptible of love. He sees • duanna (Mrs. Mowatt), the daughter of a merchant, and loves ber. He struggles long against this, in his opinion, degrading passion ; but at length the pride of the haughty Hidalgo gives way, and in spite of the warnings of Hermann (Mr. Ryder), an old monk, who urges him to quit the world and retire to a convent, Don Gomez demands the hand of Juanna of her father. Juanna, however, loves another, but he is far away ; ber father is on the verge of bank ruptcy ; she can save him from a prison by accepting the hand of Gomez, and she makes a sacrifice of herself to serve her father. Don Leon (Mr. Davenport), the son of Don Gomez, returns from the wars on the day of his father's marriage. He is met by the monk Hermann, and informed that his father is about to degrade himself by marrying the daughter of a merchant. Instead of being indignant, as the monk had expected, Don Leon is delighted, for lie too loves a merchant's daughter, and now Don Gomez cannot refuse to make him happy. Her name, asks Hermann ; Juannr, is the reply —yes, that same Juanna who is his father's bride is Leon's MINORITY—NOES, 3S. ifastie, Alexander Scholefleld, W. Henley, J. W.

He is about to rush into the church to prevent the nuptials, when the organ peals forth and the wedding procession appears leaving the church. Leon and J uanna recognise each other ; he flies from her presence, but is followed by his father, who would fain introduce his son to his bride. In the next scene Juanna and Leon meet alone. He is at first silent, but at length re proaches her bitterly with her falsehood, but when he has heard from her how she had been forced into this marriage to save her father he relents, and she fal's into his arms, when recollecting she is his father's bride, he leads her off, for though her heart is his her hand is another's. Gomez has witnessed the latter part of this last scene, and enters agonized to madness with jealousy and fury ; his servant Lissardo has also witnessed it, and Gomez threatens him with vengeance if he dare dis close aught that he has seen, and then dispatches him after Don Leon to demand his instant attendance. Don Leon comes, and Gomez, refusing to hear him, works himself up to such a pitch of frenzy that, drawing his sword, he disowns Leon as his son, and insists on his drawing and engag ing in dead ly combat. At this point Juanna enters, and, placing herself between the father and son, relates the truth. Bowed down to the earth with grief and horror, Gomez joins their hands, declares that he will obtain trom the Pope a dispensation to enable them to marry, and retires himself with Hermann to the cloister. The Gomez of Mr. G. V. Brooke is The of the m os t powerful pieces of acting ever seen. fhe whole of the last scene was sublime. Never has the agony o f woun d ed pr i de, of outraged affection, and of disappointed love been more vividly, more heartrendingly depicted, than by Mr. G.V. Brooke in the scene immediately following the discovery of his wife's supposed infidelity, and never has the hurri cane of rage, the madness of concentrated fury been more powerfully delineated than by Mr. G. V. Brooke in the . scene which immediately follows with Don Leon. It. is only equalled by Edmund lican's last scene in Sir Giles' Overreach. The contrast between the. torrent of passion in these scenes and the touching pathos and t e nderness o f th e closing scene which immediately follows was appreciated by Mr. G. V. Brooke with the taste of a scholar,' and ren dered with the genius of a p oe t. Mr. Davenport's Leon was a fine manly, chivalrous performance, and Mrs. Mowatt's Juanna was full of tenderness and beauty—it was an embodied poem. The piece was mounted in the most perfect manner, the scenery was beautiful,' and the costumes superb ; the bridal pro cession was gorgeous. The principal artistes were called before the curtain at the conclusion, and there were loud calls for the author, who walked across the stage, and was greeted with loud applause.

THE Nxw NAVAL NOVBLIST.—The author of the new tale of the sea, " The Petrel," bids fair to take rank as the first of his class. "We cannot but consider," says the M orn i ng P ost, " that t h e rea di ng public are very mu c h i n d e b ted to Mr. C o lb urn f or t h e i r introduc tion to a w r it er who, b y h i s s kill i n d e pi ct i ng li fe on the ocean, will, we doubt not, supply the place in nautical literature which has become vacant by the death of the lamented Captain Marryat. This author's life of the ship is equally dashing, forcible, and free. True, in these volumes there are errors of style and general ar rangement, but for a first offering we know of few others of me class to which it belongs, which in powerful de-. scription and refined humour could compete with it. The author writes like a regular ' salt.' Sea life has been with him no harboar-haunting, steam-running ser vice. He tells of iron-bound shores, of coral islands, and of ocean caves, as a true monster of the deep. The scene of his work is highly novel and interesting. In deed the whole cruize of the Petrel is in itself a narra tive of vivid interest, the descriptions having a reality that makes it appear that we are rather reading of some true voyage than a romance. The author of ' The Petrel' is, we !relieve, Admiral Fisher, who commanded at the blockade of Alexandria in 1840." SIR JOHN FRANKLIN.—We learn that Mr. Grinnel, one of the merchant shipowners of New York, and for merly a Member of Congress, has augmented his former subscription of .5,000 dollars towards the fitting out of an expedition to prcceed in search of Sir John Frank lin's party, to the princely donation of 15,000 dollars. It is intended that two small vessels of 160 and of 60 tons iespectively shall proceed to Barrow's Straits in May next; and it es calculated that the cost of such an expe dition will not be more than 25,000 dollars. SAVINGS' BANK DEFAULTER.—The investigati on into the affairs of the Aylesbury Savings' Bank has just been completed. The amount of defalcations by Stratton has been summed up, and has reached the sum of 1,068/. The secretary of the bank (Mr. James) has, we aro in formed, paid into the hands of the treasurer 5001., to meet any claims that may ultimately fall upon him. NEW GREEN PEA!.—A small parcel of this early luxury has been received by Messrs. Keeling and Hunt, by the Pa,cha steamer, from Lisbon, bearing as f res h an appearance at if grown in England. 1 / . ~ . • • , , - z „ .. ...2 ,4,14,4'\:4:44- ~ ,,,;.•,:i '. • l'''N,' . •-,, - , - !:'•'`,V: -. :'•••,orti, it!. ~• % Ile • • . , cenie — . • r te'. , . . -.N. , •" , i•U • ' ' ~ ‘' • 1 , ' . -- , ~..4« i . ‘NA',,pow 4 .z l 's -'\ .'

On the other hand, Sybil his sister, while a neglected school-girl, ignorant cf her destiny, is enamoured of La .Roque, a ruined spendthrift, whose life is an enigma, and whose parentage is a mystery, but with the improve ment in her fortunes comes a change in her fe gs for ber former lover. Viewing her former love "An erap y folly, A dream—a fantasy —a schoolboy fame,' • she bids La Roque n o t to meet her more, or o meet her only as a stranger. His passion, however, is not so easily cooled, nor is he quite satisfied of her sin cerity ind ismissing him, and he determines still to pursue his suia by strategy and disguises. Mean while a new character conies upon the scene in Lord Overbury, and La Roque gets introduced to Sir Archibald Harcourt as the friend of that nobleman, who, having taken a fancy to him, refreshes his thread bare coat, and makes hirii his half buffoon, half society. To test the sincerity of Sybil he makes love to Eve, and her pride thus attacked, and her jealously aroused, she in her turn, for the sake of revenge, falls in with her father's plans, and consents to play the part of Lord Overbury'a fiancee. This succeeds i n arousing the jealousy of 141, Roque, and he hastens to the metro polis to seek counsel ot" her brother. Here he learns that Gripeall has suddenly" ahuflled off this mortal coil," and while assisting, albeit, to arrange the deceased lawyer's papers, he chances to fall upon a document which clears up the mystery of his birth, and proves him to be the victim of Lord Overbury, his uncle, who has usurped his title and fortune. Armed with this treasure, he hurries back to the seat of Sir Areleibtritt - steroids-Mgthe Mayer, looms to'-Lora Overbury, be bargains with him to conceal the fraud for a time if his Lordship will consent to follow his directions in dealing with Sybil. lie gets Lord Overbury and Sybil to sign a marriage contract, which the latter does at a moment when her jealousy is at its height, and then, to keep up the deception, he demands the hand of Eve of Sir Archibald. The solicitation is scornfully refused, and La Roque is ordered to quit the mansion "as a base-born child of passion and of shame," which lead to a challenge and a meeting. La Roque is wounded in the contest, and it is told to Sybil that his wounds have resulted in death. Too late Sybil dis covered that she has sacrificed her happiness to pride, and, repenting of the past, she wreaks her vengeance upon Eve, who has been made the innocent tool of La Roque ; and then, finding that La Roque never loved Eve, she resolves to abandon Lord Overbury and seek solace in seclusion. Bereft of his children, Sir Archibald turns to Eve far consolation, and says to her— "Litter', Eve, I pave sworn an oath to wed no other wife, But can'st thou love me? Wilt thou stay beside me . Though they flout thee as a heartless child, By a rich dotard bought?" Leaving her to consider this strange offer, she reflects thus— " His vow to wed no more—his emphasis On worldly scorns, that I might brave for him; The quick, bewildered rapture of his speech; His strange embrace,—his sudden breaking-off,— Like one who hares his purpose V) be guessed;— Admit no doubt; or, if doubt be, so small, I might as wisely nurse it, as untwine One shred of gossamer to chain the streams When Wii.ter brings down ruin from the hills 0, and is thin your world ! your ancient name, Your honour, your protection?—Fare thee well, Walin of enchantment and of agony, I have tarried here too long.—lint I have limbs To fly withal—a heart to he it me up!" Accordingly, she flies to the metropolis, and finds shelter beneath Albert's rod', whither also Sir Archi bald follows, in answer to a communication sum moning him to the death-bed of his son. He arrives in time to learn that La Rcque, whose dissolution is a fiction, and Sybil, his daughter, are reconciled. La Roque throws off all disguise, and disclosing himself to be the real Lord Overbury, he preserves the honour of his name by allowing his uncle to escape to a fo reign land. Having previously, however, met with Eve, and become informed of the ambiguous nature of her guardian's proposal, he taxes Sir Archibald of his villany, when it happily transpires that Eve has misinterpreted his meaning. He wanted her not to give up the world at the expense of virtue, but to shut her ears to its taunts when she became the wife of a man so much her senior; and Eve, who really loves her guardian, at once accepts his hand and heart. There remains now only two actors in the drama to be disposed of, namely, Albert and Mar garet. La Roque, interceding with Sir Archibald in her behalf, urges him to forgive them, but there his vow stands in the way. How is he to get rid of this without forswearing himself ? La Roque urges— "There is still A voice more deep than reason or than prayer! The heart's own voice, that speaks in starry night, In the pearled morning, in the liar) of noon, Whenever man id holiest in the band 01 man's Creator—whispering in his ear There are no wrongs forgiveness cannot reach, There are no vows of vengeance past recall' If you have heard this voice, obey it now!" This reasoning overcomes Sir Archibald's scruples of conscience, and the play terminates with a reconcilia tion between the father and son. Such is a brief outline of the main incidents of the drama. It is smoothly and here and there elegantly written, but the dialogue is decidedly too long; occasionally it is fanciful and passionate, but its success depends more upon the plot and the acting than upon the poetry. It was gracefully cast and well sustained throughout. Madam Ponisi threw much feeling into the part of Sybil, while Mies R. Malcolm, as the innocent, gentle, unsophisticated Eve, was eloquently touching, reading the language of her author with exquisite taste and pathos. Mr. Mead • gave a highly finished portraiture of Sir Archibald Harcourt, and was ably seconded by Mr. Creswick, as the impassioned and reckless La Roque. Albert, the son, Lord Overbury, and Jeremy, the Steward, found admirable represen tatives in Messrs. Raymond, Collier, and Fitzroy. Nor must we omit mentioning the little part of Margaret, played by Miss Laporte with much skill and ability. The author, in the preface to the play, warmly acknowledges the good offices he has met with at the hands of all who have assisted in producing his work, and, certainly, they well merited it, for nothing could surpass the exertions of the actors to secure its success, nor could it have been placed upon the stage with more care or elaboration. The scenery and dresses were truly splendid, realising the princely magnificence of an English nobleman's estate of the period of good Queen Bess. It was enthusiastically applauded from be i gto end, and, at the close, the author, Mr . Mirk ,we believe the musical critic of th um, loomed and bowed his gratitude from ' ox, while Mr. Creswick, who seemed' no' ess delighted at the triumph of the clever aspirant for dramatic fame, announced the play for repetition until further notice amidst a renewed burst of applause.

Under the existing management the Surrey Theatre has become famous for the merit and number of its. original productions. A master-spirit presides over its destinies, and its spacious stage is no longer made the vehicle for distempered melodramatic ro map' cea or mountebank buffooneries. No, it is de voted to a nobler purpose now ; it is a school of morals where virtue and truth are enforced, through the agency of dramatic entertainments, that are as re markable for the beauty and purity of their diction as the accuracy of the living scenes and worldly pas sions which they pourtray. Soma of our best dramatic _ _ _ AU hors are enlisted under the banner of the classical and accomplished manager, and the patrons of the theatre are promised a long series of carefully written productions that would reflect no discredit upon houses of far greater pretensions. Last night one of them was given to the world in the shape of a five act play, called Old Love and New Fortune, a title which has but very slight relation to the incidents of the piece. The principal character, if not the hero, is Sir Archibald Harcourt, in early youth the accepted suitor of a lady whom he loved to distraction, but his Adler dying suddenly, leaving him the inheritor of nothing but a name and a waste manor-house, his mistress forsakes him for another, and in a moment of frenzy he barters his hand for the daughter of a money“lending goldsmith. He is afterwards cheated of her dowry, and at the age of twenty-three, finding himself a beggared widower, the father of two infant children, a boy and girl, be determined to seek a renewal of his shat tered fortunes in some tropical climate ; and with a view, " Through good and ill report—through`shade and shine, Though they warn starving—or of pestilence Rotting in gaol—or on the gallows-tree," to avenge the heartless falsehood of his first and only love on " her children and her children's children," he quits the shores of his native land, and leaves the manor-house and his children in the care of an old steward. Twenty years have elapsed, and the drama opens with his return in the character of an Indian nabob accompanied by an orp han beauty bearin g th e appropr i ate name o f " Eve, " whom he had adopted as his daughter, and whose mother had saved his life when pestilence bad brought him low at the coaC of her own. " He comes back rich—restores his ancient hall To it old splendour; for his children sends, Tu make them share his joy." In his children he recognises a sombre scholar and a poet, and a gay, fine handsome woman of the world. Albert, the son, discovers that Margaret, the maiden to whom be is bethrothed, is no other than the surviving child of the lady, who in days gone by deceived his father,' QUEEN'S THEATRE. Last night a new drama entiled, The Bronze Statue ; or the Virgin's Kiss, was produced at this neat little theatre ; and the manner in which it is put on the stage reflects the greatest credit on Mr. Green, the talented manager, who seems to have spared no expense in its production. The several performers acquitted them selves creditably, especially Messrs. Green, Kingston, Menders, and Miss M. Atkins ; in fact the whole of the company appeared to exert themselves to the ut most to insure the success of the piece. The scenery, by:Mr. James, the lessee, is first-rate, and frequently brought down the ppplause of the audience. At the conclusion, Mr. Green and the principal performers were honoured with a call to receive the plaudits of an overflowing audience. The piece was announcd or repetition every evening. POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION. Last night Sir Henry Bishop commenced a course of lectures at this institution on the secular music of England. He observed of modern date how few of our poets had written for the lyric drama. Composers had now to adapt their melodies to words without character, and often without sense, so that their ideas were brought down too frequently to amotit degrad ing position. When music was in its infancy in England, and executed by very inferior singers, the , ' greatest poets wrote for the co mposers—Shakspere 6 Tempest being the first piece having anything like the characteristics of an opera in England. Sir Henry dwelt at length on the genius of Purcell, alleging that as a musician he was:equal to Shakspere as a dramatic, or Milton as an epic poet, illustrating this part of his subject by vocal accompaniment— " Come unto these yellow sands," and "Full fathom five," " Where the bee sucks," &c. Milton's Comus, by Dr. Arne, which was produced in 1738, was an im provement ; but thirty years later the same composer presented the public with the first complete opera in the language—Artaxerxes, which, although complete and successful, was based on the models!of the Italian opera, then just introduced. Recitative, he re• marked, was ill-adapted to English Words, and although Handel had given us some fine specimens, showing that the difficulty might be ' &Mtn ®•. to to the rak. AS the soul of " a simple [pie melody-- there, while .meat is the rhetoric of music, which surprises delights at the moment by its execution, bat fails remembered in after times." Shield's style was illustrated with the beautiful song " Whilst with Village Maids I stray," and Storache 's by "Lullaby" and " Little Taffline." Storache Sir Henry highly extolled as a gen i us of no common order, and although possessing an Italian name, and so generally thought to be an Italian, he was an Italian in origin only, being an Englishmen born and bred. The simple ballad style was illustrated by "Auld Robin Gray," beautifully given. In conclusion, the lecturer urged the necessity of music being introduced into the edu cation of all classes, as the more the populace of a country have of innocent recreation the more likely are they to be industrious and content, and to keep the more unruly pssions in subjection. He con demned the present public-house concerts as being fraught with mischief, and much to be avoided; they may aid the cause of Bacchus, but they only bring the fascination of music to assist vice and intemperance. Stevenson's d ue t, " T ell me where is Fancy bred," closed a very interestin g and much applauded lecture. The vocalists were Mi ss Thornton and Miss Young, and both were frequently encored. The place was crowded. ales dint lath COURT CIRCULAR. His Royal Highness Prince Albert rode out on how back esterday morning, attended by Lieut.-Colonel the Hon. A. Gordon.

A COMMON IN FLAMES.—Last evening, between five and six o'clock, information was received, altiost simultaneously, at the various fire-engine stations in town, that a tremendous fire was raging in the direction of Nine Elms, Vauxhall. The engines of the West of England and London Brigade were immediately ordered out, but whilst they were being horsed several other per sons arrived from the various bridges, describing the scene of conflagration as lying towards Battersea. The firemen having arrived as far as the Wandsworth -road they found the distant country illuminated to such an extent that they believed a tremendous fire was raging, but the exact locality completely puzzled them. Hun dreds of men, on foot and horseback, were also hurrying towards the fire, when, on getting almost as far as Wandsworth, they were met by an express, bringing the intelligence that the cause of so much alarm was owing to the furze on the common having been set on fire. The firemen having learned that no house was near, returned with their engines to their stations. The person who brought the news informed the firemen that upwards' of three-quarters of a mile in extent of the furze was, in flames. A FURIOUS Burzoca.—Yesterday a bullock broke away from the herd to which it telonged, near Greenwich, and proceeded at a furious pace towards the metropolis, knocking down every body who attempted to impede its progress.
