Ristigati, SHOCKING EFFECT OF FRIGIIT.—A few weeks ago, a young woman, seventeen years of age, living with Mr. John Sadler, farmer, South Kilvington, near Thirsk, was terribly frightened, whilst going to milk, by a servant boy of the farm presenting himself before her enveloped in a white sheet. From the effects of this she recovered. A fortnight ago, a broom was set up, wrapped with straw, and covered with a sheet. This was too much for the poor girl to witness. The sight, at night, was so alarming, that the poor creature is now, and has been ever since, bereft of rea son. This dangerous practice has often resulted in the same way, and holds out a fearful warning against such an idle and insane practice.— Leeds Times.

In the first stage of consumption their beneficial effects are surprising, and in the ad vanced stages they relieve the cough, lessen the expectoration, check the night perspiration, and produce calm and refreshing sleep.

LONDON DRURY-LANE THEATRE. A new one-act ballet, entitled The Pretty Sicilian, was produced here last evening, for the purpose of introduc ing Mademoiselle Marietta Baderna, a pupil of M. Blasis, to the British public. Mademoiselle Baderna has been the premiere danseuse at La Scala, for some time past, and has acquired extensive popularity both at Milan and at Genoa. She is very young, very pretty, her bright, sparkling, expressive eyes, are beautiful — exceedingly, and very graceful. Her figure is slight, but exquisitely formed, and her style is perfectly artisti cal, being free from exaggeration and from affectation. Her poses are most graceful—quite classical in their elegance,—and her pantomime is expressive. Made inoiselle Baderna has one great advantage over many of her competitors,—she thoroughly understands the art of moving the arm in a graceful and elegant manner; of rounding it, so to speak, and of avoiding the angularity which too frequently mars the effect of the most expres sive pantomime of others. Her pirouettes are exceed ingly neat, and it is evident that she thoroughly under stands the principles of her art. She is, as we observed before, very young, and will therefore improve from year to year for some time to come. She has a brilliant future before her. She was admirably supported by M. Croce, y also an importation fr om L a S ca l a . M. Croce is a very clever dancer , and was much and de servedly applauded. The pas de deux in the last scene between M. Croce and Mdlle. Baderna was perfect. The audience were rapturous in their applause. The success of Mdlle. Baderna was complete—as complete as that of her two fellow pupils, Flora Fabbri and Fuoco, had been. It is no small credit to M. Blasis to have had three such pupils under his instructions. The house was very well attended. - ••••• FIA YM ARK ET THEATRE: Mr. Bourcicault's new fire act comedy, entitled The School for Scheming, was produced here last evening. The scene of the first act is laid in the lodging-house of Mrs. Singleheart (Mrs. Humby), and we are introduced to "my landlady and her lodgers." One of these lodgers is the Mac Dunnum of Dunnum (Mr. Buck stone), a "capitalist," that is to say a schemer, who, upon the strength of having 501. in the bank, starts all sorts of joint-stock companies, and allots shares to un known persons, which he sells at a premium, and gets up a testimonial to himself, to which, under various aliases, he subscribes most liberally; in short, a stag of the first head. The other lodger is the Hon. Claude Plantagenet (6lr. W. Farren), a young old man, fifty-nine according to the peerage, thirty nine according to his own representation. He has run through three fortunes, and is deeply in debt to X. Y., the advertising money-lender; but he speculates 'upon getting out of all his di ffi culties by marrying his daughter to Lord Fipley (capitally acted by Selby), a noble pigeon, but the heir to a dukedom. This daughter, Helen (Miss Fortescue), has been educated at the establishment of Mrs. Fox French (Mrs. Glover), none of whose young ladies have married any man below the rank of an earl ; indeed, one of them was expelled for tolerating the attentions of an Irish viscount. Helen, spoiled though she has been by her education, has a heart, and that heart she has bestowed upon Craven Acton (Mr. Howe), a ruined man, as her father tells her, for Craven, like himself, is deeply in debted to X.Y., the money-lender. We are then introduced to X. Y., not the real usurer, but a certain Job Sykes (Mr. Webster), who has borrowed the name of X. Y. for a purpose. Sykes was originally a stable-boy in the service of Plantagenet. By dint of industry he accumulated wealth, and married a lady of noble family. She, becoming ashamed of the mesallianee, separated from him, taking with her their only chill. This child took her name, and the father was never permitted to hold any communication with it. She died during this child's infancy, and the child was brought up by her family. This child is Craven Acton ; and, in order to watch over and guard him, the father has assumed the character of X. Y., the money lender. He is aware of the love of Craven for Helen, and, warned by his own fate, is determined, if possible, to prevent their marry ing. Old Plantagenet, too, is desirous of getting rid of Craven, and at last reproaches him with being the son of his stable-boy. He persuades Helen also to accept the suit of Lord Fipley, and he himself, understanding that Mrs. Fox French has a fortune of 10,0001., makes love to the lady. Acton's heart, however, yearns towards Helen, and she loves him still, although she has promised her hand to Lord Fipley. His Lord ship, however, has a certain cousin, Lady Rose (Miss Julia Bennett), to whom as a child he had been engaged, and who, notwithstanding his folly, of which she is per fectly. aware, is devotedly attached to him. There a ' ball at Mrs. Fox French's establishment, at which all are assembled, and at which Lady Rose manages to revive Lord Fipley's attachment, and in fact elopes with him. That same night, thanks to a special licence, Mrs. Fox French becomes Mrs. Claude Plantagenet. and Mr. Claude Plantagenet finds, to his cost, that he has married 10,0001. of debt instead of 10,000/. of fortune. He is arrested for 3,0001. In vain does Helen apply to all her friends for the loan of a sum to free her fa her ; she is rejected even by the Mac Dun num of Dunnum, who has jilted Mrs. Singleheart, to whom he had promised marriage, and to whom he makes a present of 100 shares in one of his companies as an alleviation of the disappointment. At length Craven borrows from Sykes the 3,000/. (pledging with him the portrait of his mother, set in jewels), and, giving it to Helen, releases her father and quits her for ever, disgusted at her heartles3ness. On examining the portrait, Sykes finds concealed a letter from his with to their son, informing him of his parent age, begging him to seek out his father, and to tell him how bitterly, on her deathbed, she had repented of her treatment of him. The father and son recognise each other, and are reconciled—with this ends the fourth act. In the fifth act we find all the characters assem bled at Boulogne, Plantagenet and his wife and daughter living on an annuity of 1801., a year. Helen, broken hearted for the love of Craven. Lord Fipley, (now the Duke of Bungay,) a perfect specimen of a tame man. The Mac Dunnum, now plain John Perkins. an exiled provisional comm i ttee-man. Sykes, an M. P., with the offer of a P eerage, travel ling with his son,in search of health and consolation ; and, Mrs. Singleheart, a woman of fortune (the shares which the Mac Dunnum had given her turn up trumps), travelling in search of amusement. They mee t, t h e re spective lovers are united, and the piece ends with a lengthy, moral tag spoken b y Mi ss Fortescue. The b e st character in the comedy is th a t o f Th e M ac Dunnum of Dunnum, and he is quite a hors d'oeuvre, for he has nothing whatever to do with the pl ot o f t h e p i ece. H e has some claims to originality, an d th e di a l ogue put into his mouth is smart, and at times witty. In fact, had it not been for th e i ntroduction of this character the piece would not have survived at all, for, in the fourth act, where there is a vast deal of letter reading and "talkee-t a lk ee ": to no purpose, the audience were very impatient. This impatience was audibly ma nifested at the commencement of the fifth act, and it was only the appearance of Mac Dunnum that put them into good humour. The first three acts are well written and tolerably well con , tructed, but the last two drag. In the fourth act there is a fault of construction, which we were surprised to discover in any work pro ceeding from the pen of such a practised writer as Mr. Bourcicault. Sykes, in a long and te dious speech, relates matters with which the audience were previously acquainted by his soliloquy in the first act, and by th e act i on o f t h e p i ece, thus delay ing the point which everybody knew must come, viz., the mutual recognition of the. father and the son, until expectation had dulled the edge of appetite, and the point missed fire. Nothing but the consummate tact of Webster saved the piece at this juncture. The whole of this scene must be cut down, and the pruning knife must also be unsparingly applied to the fifth act, and then the comedy will "go." The actors were all called for at the conclusion, but when Webster appeared to announce the comedy for repetition, there were some disapprobation manifested. It was, however, clear that the " Ayes" had it, and Webster's short ad dress, " I feel justified," in announcing this - piece for repe tition every evening until further notice," was received with loud applause, which completely drowned • the voices of the dissentients. Mr. Bourcioault was after • wards called for, and, on his appearance, loudly wel comed. The house was crowded to suffocation. Every seat was occupied before the rising of the curtain. REDUCTION IN THE PRICE OF BREAD AND COALS.— Yesterday the 41b. loaf of wheaten bread was reduced to Bid. OR the Surrey side of the Thames, and by most of the cheap bakers throughout the metropolis. Coals were also reduced by the retail dealers 2d. per cwt. THE ATRAPILATORY, OR LIQUID HAIR DYE—the only dye that really answers for all colours, and does not require re-doing but as the hair grows, as it never fades or acquires that unnatural red or purple tint common to all other dyes. Botanic Water and Bear's Grease,—When the hair is becoming thin, and falling off, the only effectual remedy besides shaving the head is the use of the two above named articles, appli( d alternately—the botanic water to cleanse the roots from scurf, and as a stimulant, and the bear's grease as a nourisher. The New Tooth-Pick Brush, thoroughly cleansing between the teeth when used up and down, and polishing the surface when used cross-ways. The hair warranted never to come out. The Union and Triple Hair Brushes. The Double Anti-Pressure Nail Brush. The Medium Shaving Brush. The Railway Strop and Powder. The above new and elegant articles, in addition to a very extensive assortment of beautiful perfumes, are She s ole manufactures and inventions of Messrs. Ross and tons, 119, and 120, Bishopsgate-street, London. GENERAL MONTHOLONS HISTORY OF THE CAP TIVITY OF NAPOLEON AT ST. HELENA, TRANSLATED FROM A UTHOR 'S ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT.—The third and f erlE o l urth volumes of this interesting work, forming its com pletion, have just been published by Mr. Colburn. Much of what passed through Napoleon's thoughts, as the closing scene drew on, was communicated to Monthclon alone, and gives a striking and novel interest to these latter volumes. Among the subjects comprised in them are—The Emperor's intercourse with Sir Hudson Lowe sod the English Govern ment, respecting his treatment —A full account of his suffer- 1 ings and death -Dictations by the Emperor on the return from Elba— On the cases of Marshal Ney and Count Laval latte, with a view of the French Revolution and its effects— On the position of France with relation to Foreign Powers— On the Expedition to Egypt—On the Campaigns of Austria, Russia, and Prussia, from 1805 to 1814—On recruiting, weapons, and strategy, with observations on the plans and views of the greatest military commanders of ancient and modern times—On the nature of sovereignty, popular rights, taxation, liberty of the press, government . and, colonization. The work is wound up with an account of the exhumation And transport of Napoleon's remains to Paris. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, THURSDAY.—The Queen held a Privy Council this afternoon at the Castle.

SEAMEN'S HOSPITAL SOCIETY.—The 26th annual meeting of this institution was held on Wednesday, at the office, in King William-street : Mr. J. Labouchere presided. The annual report read by Mr. Harley, the secretary, de tailed the proceedings during the last year. The number of patients admitted during the year was 2,312 ; advice, medi cine, and medical stores were provided for 1,629 out patients, making a total of 3,941 seamen relieved during that period, and since the commencement of the charity 79,585; of these 2,760 belonged to the royal navy, 1,797 to the Indian navy, and 49,161 to the vessels of various nations. The total re ceipts of the year amounted to 8,8931. 14s. 6d., including do nations, subscriptions, bequests, &c., and deducting the ex penditure, a balance of 3801. remained. The report having been agreed to, the meeting broke up. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE —Early yesterday morning, the Lying-in Hospital at Manchester,situated in St. Mary's parade, was discovered to be on fire, and in two hours after wards all the rooms, with the exception of the board-room, were reduced to ashes. The servant-girl was awakened at five o'clock by a sense of suffocation, and saw at once that the house was likely to be destroyed by fire. She alarmed the house-surgeon, Mr. Runcorn, who slept in the upper story, and he started from bed, and found that from the progress of the flames egress by the street-door was impos sible. He immediately tied together two of the sheets of his bed, and lowered himself down to one of the short lad ders which had been placed under his window by Mr. Hurl butt, plumber, and by this means escaped without injury. Mrs. Idorncastle, the matron, with four other women in the house, behaved with remarkable presence of mind under the trying circumstances. The smoke in her room was dense, almost beyond endurance, and throwing up the lower sash of her bedroom-window, she instructed her companions to hold their heads out in the open air to breathe. She then tied together the sheets of her bed, fastened one end to the lower part of the bottom sash, and thus urged her frie nds alarmed ede. to descend in the way that the house-surgeon h ad in done.

CONVEYANCE OF: CATTLE ON RAILWAYS --Mr. Deputy Hicks and a deputation from Smithfield-market had another interview yesterday with the directors of the Eastern Counties Railway, when arrangements were finally made which it is anticipated will give general satisfaction, and by which the conveyance of live cattle from Norfolk will be greatly improved, the condition of the cattle much bene fited, and their sufferings and consequent injuries frnm long confinement in the trucks (frequently f rom twenty to thirty hours) greatly alleviated, particularly by an improvement in the trucks to prevent their slipping down and falling under each other, with the great advantage of having a day's rest in warm sheds, with plenty of water and fodder; b g o r v e e at a rran disordergem e a n n t d s, i i t n i c s o l n io v p e e n d ie t b li c a e t a a ri n a wl a b n e d pu b t y to th t e h a e the late deliveries on the Monday which has been so fre quently the case. TIIE MURDER AT DEEDY.—DERBT, THURSDAY. — The inquiry into the circumstances attending the murder of Ann Cross by her husband, Thomas Cross, was concluded last evening, and a verdict of "Wilful Murder " returned against the prisoner. k 4 The Grand Duke of Tuscany, by a decree of:the 16th ult., has permitted the free importation into his domi • nions, either by sea or land, of grain and vegetables of every deacriptioa l don to the 80th June, 1847. ~~~ g~~ ~. ~~~~ 1C REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN TRADE. (From the Mark-lane Express.) No time has been lost in getting the Corn and Navigation Law Suspension Bills through Parliament, these measures having received the Royal Assent on Tuesday lest. Whether the importations of grain will be materially increased by the remission of the almost nominal rates of duties previously levied on arrivals of foreign corn may be questioned ; at; all events no immediate increase in the supplies can be caused thereby. Before it was known that Government intended to take the steps they have, orders had been sent abroad to buy up all that could be procured ; and these purchases would, under any circumstances, have come forward. The whole of the available stock at Baltic ports is a mere baga telle in comparison with what will be wanted to supply the immense deficiency of food in Ireland. The same may be said as regards the Mediterranean ; and though rather a large quantity of wheat is held at Odessa and the Danube, we shall have to outbid France and other countries, who are looking to that quarter as well as ourselves for supplies, to secure any large quantity there. Our principal resource must, therefore, still be America; and we can only repeat what we have on former occasions stated, viz., that we en tertain considerable misgivings as to her capabilities to fur nish 'adequate supplies in a season when the yield of grain has been more or less deficient over a large portion of Europe. We are, consequently, inclined to view the reaction which has taken place in the trade in grain during the week now about to terminate as likely to prove temporary, unless our own farmers hold much heavier stocks than we have reason to suppose. The anxiety to realize which holders of Wheat and Bari-y have alt at once exhibited, has, as usual, been met by increased caution cn the part of merchants, millers, and dealers, and a rather important fall has been the result. That some giving way should have occurred at Liverpool is not surprising. as the arrivals at that port from America have been very abundant for some days dast; if, however, the wants of Leland are ❑early as great as estimated by the President of the Board of Trade, the Liverpool warehouses will not long retain what has just been stored. We have recently received 's communication from a source we believe worthy of credit relative to the state of affairs in the interior of Ireland, which fully bears out the gloomy picture drawn by the different speakers in the House of vommons, when touching on the subject of Irish distress. Froth this state., ment it appears that the demand for meal of every descrip. tion is so great, that the power of manufacturing it has proved altogether inadequate; that the poor people con stantly surround the different mills, and take away Wheat, Indian Corn, and Oatmeal, in small quantities of a kw stones at the time, as fast as it can be made ; and our correspon dent accounts for the accumulation of stocks at Dublin, Li- . 411 04 1 - 4 P.' artern l 4o.F.Ztkpl tttifretilty et g l*bitirink auce, the boats, tic., usually employed in carrying goods into the interior having proved wholly unequal to the pur pose. All this appears, however, for the present,. to have been lost sight of ; and, as already remarked, a decided change has during the week taken place in the tone of the trade. At most of the leading provincial markets a rather important decline has occurred. THE FOREIGN CORN TRADE. We have received two arrivals from America, the latest being the packet ship Patrick Henry, bringing New York advises of the Bth January, and accounts of corresponding dates from other parts of the United States. The news which had, up to that date, reached there from Europe, had not been regarded as particularly encouraging ; and, so far from any further rise having occurred, the tendency of prices had been rather downwards. Good brands of Genessee had been sold at sd. Sc. to sd. 56c., and other western kinds at sd. 44c. to sd. 50c. per brl. A good many vessels had arrived out, and the demand for ship-room having at the same time rather fallen off, freights had slightly re ceded ; 4s. sd. per brl. for Flour, and ls. 6d. per bushel for Wheat, having been taken for Liverpool. From the let to the 31st December the exports of Flour had amounted to 232,894 brls., and in the first week of January close upon 20,000 brls had been shipped. Indian Corn Meal had been in lively request, and large sales of Pennsylvania and Jersey had been made at 3d. 87 1 hc. per brl. Wheat had not excited much attention, and good Genessee had been sold at 115 e. per pushel. In December 276,757 bushels of Wheat,245,791 bushels of Indian Corn, 59,954 bushels of Rye, 21,75$ bushels of Oats, and 31,661 bushels of Barley had been exported. _ _ At New Orleans, on the 30th of December, Flour was ob tainable at 4d. 50c. per brl., and Indian Corn at from 62kc. up to 70c. per bushel, according to quality. The advices received this week from the principal Medi. terranean ports describe the grain trade as having become very excited. In the Papal States the export of corn had been forbidden, and prices had risen cons id era bl y in all the principal markets. A letter from Marseilles, of the 23d inst., informs us that Polish Odessa Wheat had commanded equal to 61s. to 635. per qr. free on board at that port. Marianopoli 595., and Rctnelia 545. Our correspondent states that the anxiety to secure wheat had become so great as to render the price a matter of almost secondary consideration; parcels not ex pected to arrive for five or six months had been taken with as much avidity as cargoes nearly at hand, and that the ex citement was increasing day by day. From Trieste we have letters of the 21st January; Odessa Wheat was then quoted 535. 6d. per qr. free on board, but the freight from thence to a British port was 12s. per qr., with 10 per cent. From Leghorn we learn that about 80 to 85 cargoes of Wheat had arrived there, chiefly bound to Marseilles. The demand for the article had been as active there as at neigh ' bouring places, and prices had advanced materially. Freight to England was 9s. to 10s. per quarter. The Hamburgh mail of Friday had not come to hand up to elate hour this evening; our accounts from the Baltic are, therefore, not of such recent dates as usual. According to the latest accounts fuom Dantzic, the highest price of Wheat was 635. to 655. per quarter, but it seems more than probable that a further rise has occurred since then. At Rostock and Stettin holders had raised their preten sions, and few were willing to engage to ship Wheat in spring below 625. to 635. per qr. At Hamburg, on the 22d of January, several purchases of Wheat were made on French account, and fur fine upland red equal to 655. per qr. had been paid. We have a very important communication from Antwerp, dated the 28th instant. It appears that a huge number of French buyers had attended that market, and had taken off all the Wheat and Rye they had been enabled to procure. This had caused an important rise in prices, and the former article was, at the date named, werth equal to 70s. to 78e. and the latter 525. to 55s per qr., with every appearance of a still further advance. Since writing the above the Hamburg mail of the 26th has come to hand, further purchases of Wheat had been made there on French account, and the tendency of prices had continued upwards.
