GENTLEMEN,—A highly respectable Deputation has kindly waited upon me with a Requisition, signed by a large number of Electors in your Ward, requesting met() come forward for the third time as a CANDIDATE at the ensuing Municipal Election. Comprising, as that Requisition does, the names of so many influential gentlemen of all parties, thus affording the best proof that my past endeavoursto promote your interests have given satisfaction, I have great pleasure in at once ac ceding to such a flattering mark of respect. If, therefore, you do me the honour again to elect me, I shall return to my duties with an increased determination to persevere in that course which has hitherto met with your approbation, and which has appeared to me most conducive to your welfare and the prosperity of the town. I am, Gentlemen. Your obedient and faithful Servant. R. C. GARDNER. New/sham-house. 12th O cto b er, 1853. TO THEiiiiTNICIPAL ELECTORS OF WEST DERRY WARD. GENTLEMEN,—I have deemed it my duty to accede to a pressing request, made to me by a large and influential por tion of your body, that I would allow myself to be put in nomination as a CANDIDATE at the ensuing Election for the distinguished honour of representing you in the TOWN COUNCIL. There being no question involving much difference of opinion occupying the attention of the town at present. Ido not feel called upon to enter at any length into local affairs. I may, mention, however, that with regard to the contem plated TOWN IMPROVEMENTS, I shall assist in carrying them out as extensively as possible, consistently with a due regard to economy in the expenditure of the public funds, which in every other respect shall have my best attention. On other matters, I shall be happy to explain my sentiments when I have the pleasure of meeting you. I have only further to say, that if you do me the honour to accept of my humble services, I shall endeavour to perform my duty to the Ward and to the Town generally to the best of my abilities. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient, humble Servant, FRANCIS A. CLINT. 2, Beech-terrace, Edge-lane, October 13, 1853. TO THE MUNICIPAL ELECTORS OF VAUXHALL WARD. GENTLEMEN,—The term for which you elected me as one of your Representatives will shortly expire. A Deputation of Gentlemen Electors of your Ward having waited upon me, and presented a Requisition, numerously and respectably signed by parties of all shades of opinion, I have no hesitation in tendering my best exertions for your acceptance. I feel less difficulty in now coming forward as a Candidate, for, since I have bad the honour to represent you, I have the satisfaction to know my conduct in the Council has met with the uniform approbation of the Ward. Three years ago you elected me on two distinct principles, which, I need hardly say, were quite in accordance with my own, namely, the entire absence of politics in local affairs, and strict economy in the management of the Corporate Purse, with a due regard to the good old town's various re quirements and upholding her interests. I think it will be found I have kept these principles con stantly in view; and I believe there is not an elector who will say that I forgot the interests of the Ward in support of any party, political or religious, in the Council. I have uniformly voted against the increase of official salaries when I have considered them well paid ; and, whenever public money was to be expended. I have looked carefully how it was to be most beneficially and economically spent, having a deep sympathy for the difficulties and privations local taxation entail on the industrious ratepayers. Having, from my youngest days, bad my interest bound up in the prosperity of your I Nard, it is apparent that what isinjurious to you must be so to me, and that we must be equally benefited by its improvement. Finally, the principles on which you first elected me are unchanged. If you should again do me that honour, I hope that the experience I have had in the Council duties will en able me more efficiently to 4P justice to the trust reposed in me. I remain, Gentlemen, your faithful servant, Wrii#M4 l l NIP/JOLSON. Shaw-street, 4th October, 1853. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER his twenty years of political life, was the greater part of that time a professing Conservative ; and now, with ultra-Radicals for colleagues in office, he forms part of a pageant in which the Manchester Radicals—who had even ventured to talk of the assassination of Sir ROBERT PEEL as an act which might be justified—erect a statue to his memory, the sole cause of their laudation being the grossest act of political treachery of which any Minister was ever guilty. Mr. GLADSTONE might, with great propriety, hold in respect the memory of his political Mentor, but it was an utter obliviousness of good taste, or a total recklessness of his own character, which induced him to join in such a celebration as that on Wednesday last. His Con servative professions must have been thrown to the winds, and therefore we are compelled to accept the latter alternative, that he who was once the hope of the great Conservative party, having taken the first false step, is determi ne d t o b e consistent only in error. It may suit the shallow intellects of manufacturing politicians to repeat the balder , dash with which their idol sought to justify his ' perfidy, by talking of the poor man eating his loaf unembittered by the sense of injustice ; but Mr. GLADSTONE has sense enough to perceive its thorough absurdity, and therefore has less excuse for not only joining in the treachery which con summated Free-trade, but also in contributing to the posthumous reward which Manchester paid to its lately-adopted idol. He has evidently forfeited his own'esteem ; and, conscious that his former position as a Conservative is gone for ever, as will be his seat for Oxford University on the next opportunity, he is making to himself friends of the Mammon of unrighteousness, and preparing for a rivalry in popular favour with Messrs. COBDEN, BRIGHT, and others of that clique. To such a decay of his once clear intellect can we alone at tribute the fulsome laudation of the policy of the present Ministry. with which he garnished his speech to his new friends. His allusions to the state of the Revenue were a covert eulogy on the policy with which he has identified himself; but in reality the evidence is worthless, unless he can ' prove that the gold discoveries in California and Australia, with their results of emigration, in creased exports, and augmented wages, were pro duced by Free-trade. There was, however, a slight drawback to the picture of prosperity which he was so anxious to display, and he was compelled, with that show of candour which served his poli tical master on so many occasions, to acknowledge that the cheap bread, which was the especial object of the Free-traders, was not obtainable at present. The price of grain, he admitted, was very high, but then there were no complaints ; so that, according to this showing, it is merely a question of feeling whether the consumers please to be content with ' high prices, when they cannot see a way to help themselves. It is gratifying to know that there is so much public virtue as not to complain of the loss of cheap bread ; but we much question its permanence when a cessation of the late exorbitant demands for labour shall have dimmed 'the sunny side of the picture. THE believers, or pretenders to a belief, in the dream of universal pew*, have been magnifying their own wisdom by a .demonstration in the good ' old city of Edinburgh: ; their adopted idol being the man of unadorned eloquence, whom Manchester and the West Riding of Yorkshire delight to honour. There is something absurdly ridiculous in the way in which 'these little men indulge in dreamy landations about the blessings of peace and the horrors of war, as though all the rest of the world were of theinost sanguinary dispositions, eagerly seeking for opportunities to rush into hos tilities with each other. Our safety was threatened by the disturbed state of the Continent and 'the evident preparations for war of a neighbouring potentate, who had - violated the most solemn oaths in order to reach :his present 'elevation, and yet England, in Christian meekness, after the :true fashion of these solemn pretenders to piety, IVIIB to propitiate the mercy of reckless invaders 'by dismantling her fleets and disbanding her arniies• As the richest nation in the world, we presented the strongest temptations to aggression, if our means of defence were wanting ; and yet, With our Bibles in one hand-end calicoes in the other,. we were to quietly rely for our security upon the effect which our geed example would have upon our enemies. Such arguments are too preposterous for serious refutation r and yet they form the fustian, with which the leaders of the Peace Conference seek to beguile their dupes. They tell us that the maintenance of fleets , and armies involves a-serious charge upon the ind us t r y of peace f u l men, as though men in a rich Old country could be peaceful and industrious, without fleets and armies, so long as the world contains , other men , actu ated by the impulse of h uman passions instead of guided by 'Christian precepts. Means of defence are neces •sarily expensive. Milnefs patent robber -defying :safes cost money, and solo locks, bolts, and bars, •pelicemen, magistrates4Ages, prisons, and allthe other accessories for the - punishment of crime ; but 'they are not the less indispensable, so long as the peaceful. men have something worth protecting, and others will deprive them of it if they can. When Messrs. COBDEN, 'BurGini, and Co., trust their own valuables to the -security of the public • honesty, we may have some faith in their dogmas about national defences, but they have never yet attempted to put their professions into practice in 'the slightest degree. It was a. sad waste of the public money to employ soldiersio defend the Cape Colony .against the aggresSions of the Kaffirs, when 'Mr. BRIGHT could have •managed the affair so mueh t eheaper, and more effectually, with a sup ply of (sties. It is worse than absurd to urge on the Goverrninpnt to send a British fleet for the defenee..of Turkey, when Mr. COI3DEN can crumple the Emperor of Russia like a piece of paper. The standing demand of these peace-mongers is for international arbitration, as though every one else were oblivious opf the fact that for nearly forty years almost all disputes between civMsed -nations have been settled by negotiation. Suck is the case now in the great Turkish question ; but it is equally clear that negotiation would be of coy little avail, if the high contracting parties had not fleets and armies with which to strengthen their arguments and enforce their directions. It is the intelligible argument of the strong arm which has the greatest weight in all such negotiations, and so long as it is wielded by England in the cause of justice, the greatest Possible security is afforded for the maintenance of peace. WE published last week, in our Second Edition, the state of the National Revenue, as made up to the 10th of October, and Which, no doubt, on the first survey of the totals, presents a satisfactory evidence of the elasticity of the public resources. A consideration, however, of the items, and the probable causes of the apparent increase, will tend somewhat to qualify the note of triumph with which it has been ushered into notice by those who still cling to their belief in Free-trade policy. It will be observed that by far the largest item of increase on the Account, both for the year and the quarter, is the Repayment of Advances, amounting on the year to £618,008, an d on th e quar ter to £207,212, while the ite m o f Imprest an d o th er Money adds £133,880 t o t h e year ' s account. These are not sources o f I4 venue, a lth oug h brought into the Account as being: re c e ipts into the Exchequer; but if th e s t a t em ent b e confined to actual Revenue, it will be found that the in crease on the year is only :C1,559,864, and on the quarter only £226,754, instead of £ - 2,311,752 and £117,727, as shown by the statement. The Cus toms and Excise have usually been considered as the safest test of the consuming powers of the population, particularly the latter item ; but, though reductions have been made in both by the diminution of the Tea Duty and the abolition of the duty on Soap, the immense impetus which has been given to all branches •of industrial activity might reasonably have been expected to add con siderably to these sources of Revenue, particularly as the recent lull in business did not occur till nearly the termination of the quarter. It will be found that the increase on the Quarter's Customs was only £120,667, and that on the Excise the still smaller proportion 'of only £5,474. Under the head •of Stamps will be found the comparatively large increase of £98,742, arising from the enor mous issue of the new Penny Receipt Stamps just before the close of the quarter, to the number, it is said, of upwards of six millions. Taxes, on the other hand, show a decrease of £29,996, and the Post-office a decrease of £25,000, as though cor respondence had begun to diminish. Upon the whole, therefore, there is no great cause for ex ultation, though none for despondency, and the Ministers are quite welcome to make the most they can of their financial policy, of which the leading features were a re-imposition of the In come-tax, and an additional burden on the holders of real property. The Surplus on the year, ended sth of July last, has been declared to be £3,568,624 16s. Bd., of which a fourth part, or £892,156 4s. 2d., is ap plicable to the reduction of the National Debt. It is believed, however, that instead of applying it to the purchase of Stock, which has been the usual course, and would now operate favourably on the Money Market, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE grER intends to devote it to the redemption of South Sea Stock, which he will shortly be called upon to effect. of considerable disquietude to our Coalition Minis try, and if we may judge by the frequency of protracted sittings of recent Cabinet Councils, there is very little of that unity which was said to prevail among " all the Talents." The HOME SECRETARY fancies himself to be the possessor of all tha knowledge on foreign affairs, and by no means .agrees with his chief, who is in a minority in his own cabinet ; so that the doubt and delay which have so long prevailed need excite no sur prise. In the mean time, the continental tele graphs appear to have been at the command of the stock-jobbers, and, favoured by the secrecy of official reserve, they have been enabled so to vary the reports as to produce those fluctuations of which the concoctors know so well how to take advantage. This uncertainty, so injurious to trade, has given rise to a demand for an imme diate summons of Parliament, in order that Ministers may be constitutionally called upon for authentic information, instead of the country hav ing to depend upon presumed ministerial organs, which the Government may repudiate or adopt ac cording as it suits their purpose. We have no pretensions to any knowledge of what takes place at a cabinet council, each member of which is sworn to secrecy, but it is currently believed that the question of summoning Parliament formed an important item in the recent lengthened dis cussions. The latest telegraphic despatches state that the allied fleets have at length left Besika Bay, and on the Gth were seen entering the Dardanelles. This ' may be true, but after recent experience all tele graphic reports from the East require confirmation. The correspondent of the Morning Chronicle states that the Turks intend merely to commence the war pro forma, and then to adjourn further hos tilities until the spring, so that in the meantime the quarrel may be settled by mediation. This is not unlikely, particularly as another despatch states that the Turkish army is not to cross the Danube, a very prudent precaution under the circumstances. THE PORT OF LIVERPOOL. THERE are persons so utterly impracticable to deal with, that it is almost a matter of impossibility to do them good, and this character seems largely to prevail among the operatives of the manufac turing districts. The whole tendency of modern policy has been to improve the condition of this class, but with what success their present state will in some degree serve to show. Free-trade was adopted in order to give them cheap bread, and yet it is now dearer than the average during the whole time that the sliding scale was the law of the land ; but for this result they have, of course, more to thank their leaders than themselves, as the only part they took was to join in the clamour by which the candid minister who betrayed his party was converted. Emigration has relieved them from the competition by which the wages of their labour was kept 'below the standard which they considered remunerative. The gold discoveries have given such an impetus to trade, that every man's services have 'been in demand, at a price beyond their most sanguine anticipations. Reductions of duties and repeal of taxes have placed them in a more favour able position than ever they had a fair right to expect—and yet now, when they might be enjoying all the good things which have been so lavishly provided for them, they turn round with sullen perverseness and refuse to work at all, unless at such wages as would render their work unprofitable. It is, however, fortunate, not only for the masters but eventually for themselves, that the men have delayed their strike until a time when they are the principal if not the only sufferers. Thousands have turned out for increase of wages.; and now, when they find that a lull in business has destroyed the chance of their intimidation proving successful, they would gladly xetrace the false step they have taken. But the mischief has been done, the mills have been closed, and the masters having no particular demand for their -manufac tures, refuse to receive them even at the same rate of wages, unless they give up the trades' unions and combinations by which all the mischief has originated. They have made a rod for their own backs, and it is to be hoped that the firmness of the masters will serve to convince the men of the folly ,of their conduct, and prove to them a useful lesson Sor the future. This disposition to strike for wages is one so pregnant with ,mischief, that it cannot be -too severely condemned, .and not the least evil is that the innocent too often suffer for the guilty. while the many are the dues of a few designing men, who batten on the miseries of their .fellow creatures. No. 11. Ws resume our consideration of the subject which we commenced last week, by referring to another point deserv ing of attentive consideration, which must shortly assume a more prominent position. By the peculiar situation of Liverpool on the east bank of the Mersey, she is virtually excluded from the immense amount of business which might be done with the large and busy population to the South and West. Her great source of traffic has been the supply of the enormous industrial population of Lancashire, and other parts of the North of England. This has been in a great measure stimulated by the facili ties of railway communication, notwithstanding the diffi culties of access to the several lines—to the immense demand for the raw materials for manufactures imported into Liverpool from foreign countries, and also to the enormous amount of British produce and manufactureS exported by vessels leaving this port. The other side of the Mersey, however, possesses much greater facilities for communication with the interior, while the population of the principality of Wales and the south-west counties of England must prove a source of trade, the extent of which it is impossible to calculate. It must now be generally admitted that the rapidly augmented trade of Liverpool has found ample employ ment for all the Dock accommodation, greatly as that has been extended, and it is at the same time equally true that all practicable means of further extension have been exhausted, so that the alternative which remains is for the trade of the port to be confined within its present limits or for the means of extension to be sought from far dif ferent sources than those which have hitherto been, adopted. The idea which would first strike every person, inde pendent of local prejudices, would be to render the Mersey available on both its banks; and this would no doubt have been the case years since, but for the unreasonable notion entertained by many of the people of Liverpool,— that any promotion of dock accommodation on the oppo site side of the estuary `would tend to injure the trade of their town. The practical adoption of this idea has vir tually operated to deprive them of many natural advan• tages on the Cheshire shore, and actually to induce the construction of dock-works at very great cost, owing to the high price of land, the necessity of removing build ings, and the expense of excavation and erection of walls. On the Cheshire shore, such advantages were to be ob tained at comparatively little cost, as docks had almost been formed by nature, and only required being made applicable to the purposes of commerce. Indeed, so pre eminent were the advantages presented, that Mr. TEL VOILD, one of the most eminent marine engineers, when looking from Bidston Hill over Wallasey Pool, at high water, exclaimed, " Liverpool was built on the wrong side of the Mersey." It can hardly be believed that the feeling which formerly prevailed' in Liverpool of the prosperity of Birkenhead being an antagonist interest can now exist The growing intelligence of the age must utterly have exploded a fallacy so suicidal in its results. As well might the citizens of London—who have the ample space of the London docks, the East and West India Docks, with their vast basins and wide quay room, in addition to the St. Katharine Docks and the legal quays—complain of the trade of Southwark and the great business on the Surrey shore. So far, indeed, from entertaining such an idea, nearly all the vast timber trade of the metropolis is con ducted on the Surrey side of the Thames, where, from the facilities afforded by the Commercial Docks at Bother hithe, it is carried on with far more advantage than could be done in the more costly localities on the London side. The strike among the colliery men at Wigan and other places has now continued some weeks, the effect being a greatly-enhanced price of coals and an increased demand for the „produce of the Welsh collieries. These, however, are minor evils, •e9m pared with that of submittingtto such attempts f at intimidation, which, if successful, would lead to still further impositions, until intelligence and capital would be at the command of labour and ignorance. Such is about the ease on the Mersey, the west bank of which presents more available accommodation for such bulky goods as timber, not only in quay space, which is indispensable, but also in access to cheap transit into the interior by railways, which in Birkenhead are carried alongside the vessels discharging their cargoes. ANOTHER week has elapsed, and yet the settle ment of the Turkish affair seems as far distant as ever. Indeed its progress towards a settlement appears-tole of a retrograde Character ; for some time since we were informed that -the allied fleets had been ordered up to Constantinople, and now we are told that they have not stirred .out of Besika Bay. It is ,true that we have intelligence of the SuLTAN of Turkey having signed .a .declaration of war, which mient in itself be considered the pre lude to active hostilities ; but it is pretty clear that the document has been executed for *e purpose of silencing the clamours of the Turkish war party, and it may be to lave a similar influence in this country. It is now said that the Russian General Commanding in the Danubian provinces is to be allowed so many days, with a notice that if lie does not commence to leave at_that period, the Turks will proceed to try the effect of Mohammedan valour. The delay., 'however, will give time for negotiation, and the opinion is gaining ground that the long-desired settlement of the dispute will be arrived at, without giving the Turkish levies an opportunity of fleshing their swords, or rather seymitars. This opinion is in a great measure con firmed by the evidently paeifie disposition of the CZAR of Russia, who, notwithstanding his strong desire to retain possession of the provinces, has no intention to gratify his ambition by fighting for it. The modern policy of Europe is diplomacy, and upon his skill in this ingenious art the astute Russian Minister, Count NESSBLRODE, has relied for the accomplishment of his scheme. He must, however, be content to submit to defeat, as Turkish obstinacy will hazard the loss of the Empire, which must be the result of actual hostilities, rather than surrender these provinces in the Danube, which European good sense will insist upon the restitution of, as the only alternative for the maintenance of peace. The length of time which has been occupied in negotiations appears to have destroyed all confidence in the many promises of a speedy termination to the uncertainty which prevails, and which has tended to paralyze com mercial operations. A definite period has, how ever, now been fixed, which will expire on Monday next ; and it is to be hoped that the interval will be wisely employed in the preparation of a note, couched in language sufficiently intelligible not to be open to misconstruction. The part which England has, or ought, to have, occupied in this affair se= to - have been 'a source It has been supposed that an extension of population on the Cheshire side of the Mersey, by the transfer of a Portion of the shipping trade in that direction, would operate injuriously to the ratepayers of Liverpool, by diminishing the number, and thereby increasing the bnxden on those who remain. If it were possible to secure the residence in the town of every one who has an interest in the trade of the port, such a position might be tenable; but it is not so. As the town becomes densely populated by those whom necessity compels to remain, confinement becomes irksome to those who have the means to accommodate themselves better, and the thousands who daily crass the Mersey by the ferry-boats, or use the omnibussos to and from the suburbs, show that the exten sion of population is in localities where they contribute nothing to tie rates of Liverpool. Such migration will still go on, whatever may be the improvements within the town, so long as men prefer a glimpse of nature to tall houses and paysd streets; and therefore a persistence in confining the growing business within its present incon venient limits will but injure trade without securing the contemplated advantag,es. Another objection to cross the water has been the equally untenable position of its militating against the interests of the shoi)keepers of Liverpool, by withdrawing their customers from them. Should this be the effect of occu pying both sides of the Mersey, it is one for which no remedy will be found in attempting to confine the trade to one side, bat rather induce the raising of a rival interest, which might better have been a union of interests. But so far from the tradesmen of Liverpool being injured by ' the peopling of Birkenhead and the adjacent townships, the reverse is rather the case. Some of them have establishments on the other side, and vast numbers of the Cheshire population deal with tradesmen on this side, while most of the shops are supplied from the same source. Their interests, therefore, are in a great measure identical, and it would be difficult to show that the rendering available to Liverpool commerce the very great nat ura l advantages to be fo th und the on ini t u h ry e Chesl • shor of the retail e t would way ethe probabilities are that the effec t would L op: ,e ra rp te oo in l, be exactly the reverse. Apart from the more important question of commercial operations, the population of Birkenhead and the neigh bourhood is being con s id era bl y ex t en d e d from local causes, which must continue to augment it the more its ad vantages become known. The streets are wide and straight, the houses are well built, the sewerage is good, the supplies of water and gas are ample, and now that the steam-boats run so continuously, punctually, and rapidly, for so small a charge, it is virtually placed nearer to Li verpool than if the intervening Mersey were spanned by a bridge. With its picturesque park, second to none in England; the neighbouring heights of Bidston, from which an uninterrupted TiCW can be obtained of the coast from Lancashire to the mountains of \Vale., and its many de lightful rides and walks in almost every direction, it pre sents advantages, to those whose occupations are in Liverpool, which render it one of the most attractive suburbs of the busy town. Commerce will, therefore, but accompany the march of population in taking the same direction, until the Liverpool of the futUre, like the Lon don of the present, will occupy both sides of the mighty stream on which she stands. By far the most important feature, however, of the Cheshire landscape, in a commercial point of view, is the vast expanse of water, the dock half formed by nature known as Wallasey Pool, of Which we subjoin the descrip tion given by the celebrated Mr. TELronn in his report, dated May, IS2S, and which also bears the signatures of ROBERT STENIENSON and ALEXANDER NIMMO " Wallasey Creek runs for nearly two miles from th e Mersey, where it is stopped by an embankment, through which the waters of 3,000 acres of marsh Land pass by a tunnel. The pool, below the embankment, covers 340 acres at spring tides, and .by its breakwater maintains a channel through the creek, down to low-water springs, and with seventeen feet at high-water (springs) as far up as the embankment. On the south side of the creek, be tween Woodside Ferry and Bridge-end, there is a bottom of sandstone rock, but this ceases at Bridge-end Creek, and above that place the shore is composed of firm clay, fh for brickmaking, to a depth at least of thirty feet, in which the necessary excavations for docks and basins could be carried on with great facility." This, though the most important, is, however, but one of the many natural advantages of the Cheshire shore for purposes of commerce. We shall proceed in our next to describe what has been done to render these advantages available; and follow up these observations by showing what remains to be done, And the course most advisable under the circumstances. 0, - VA& 1 The Steam-ship GOLDEN AGE, For AUSTRALIA, is nowON VIEW in the HusßissoN DOCK: .the largest and most magnificently-fitted Steam-ship in the world.

As a leader, or rather conductor, Mr. Fitzwilliam displayed considerable tact, and but for his over-partiality to the inapposite notes of " the woodpecker tapping," which, . with his switchy baton, he performed with remorseless pertinacity,—his (tit i floof his _flourishes with htiiosi,_ l i eft l l v i o a ta nd a have cut a very respectable figure. Of the opera s name d, t n h a e c igteyn,—era il l is grotesqueness unecessall r probably the first mentioned was that most suited to the powers of the company, and it was admirably gone through. Indeed, with the exception of " Pm, Diavolo," which was obviously beyond the resources of the company, all the operas were well performed, and beautifully put upon the stage. Of Miss Louisa Pyne, as a vocalist, it is to' speak. Her f ame i s extensive, and earnedit. To an organ o f great b eauty, and no ilsinbacerdlonbyri necessary inconsiderable compass, as well as power, she adds a pleasing expressiveness ; and in the "Bohemian girl" her style of singing and acting was appropriate and winning, many of her solos being sung with charming simplicity, and in good taste. In the beautiful air "I dreamt that I dwelt in marble halls," the clear, silvery, bell-like tones of her voice imparted exquisite expression to the sentiment, - and gave full effect to the floating and falling melody which streamed in melting cadence from her lips; but in no instance were her natural and acquired talents shown to greater advantage, than in her portion of the trio and chorus, " Happy and light of heart be thou." The whole of this charming piece was delightfully given, while the soprano part was a complete gem of art and a triumph of expression. She was also very happy in Rossini's spark ling aria, "An old man would be wooing." Her render ing of Auber's delightful melody, " 'Tis to-morrow," was in every respect admirable. The full gush and abandon of delighted anticipation were given with a purity and beauty which it is difficult to rind words to characterise. As an acting vocalist, Mr. Harrison stands deservedly in good repute ; to a portly and commanding figure he adds expressive features, and no small grace of action. His voice, though not of the first order, has many excellent qualities ; his training has manifestly been careful, and in general, his taste may be allowed excellent ; when bring ing himself up for an effort he displays capital execution, and renders the music at once expressive and captivating. In Balfe's stirring song, " When the fair land of Poland," his singing was exceedingly effective ; throwing his whole energies into the music anti the words,he rendered bothwith thrilling effect, completely captivating the audience. In this piece he was rapturoualY encored—a matter calculated to excite no wonder, considering the -great beauty of the song and the dazzling style in which it was sung. His sing ing of " You'll remember me," in the same opera, wag likewisa admirably correct. The Count Arnhelin of Mr. Borrani, in the "Bohemian Girl," was stiff as a histrionic performance ; but his singing rendered that defect less important, as well as less obvious. Several of his solos were given with much delicacy and expression, in parti cular his singing of the p a th e ti c air, The heart bowed down," calls for high commendation, and richly deserved the hearty applause it drew from the audience. His Figaro was a better piece of acting; it was lively, and he sung the spirited airs of Rossini con more, and-in good taste. As a comic actor and .ainger, Mr. H. Horncastle is entitled to great praise, as the former he is easy, spirited, and pleas ing ; as the latter, he is effective, and displays good cul ture, added to natural qualifications of a high order. As Devils-hoof, in the "Bohemian Girl," both his acting and singing were excellent, and his efforts added greatly to the successful character of the performance. Of Miss Pyne we saw but little, and that little was pleasing. We cannot in justice close these very imperfect and hasty remarks upon the operatic treat we have received, without a word of commendation on those who, though their names make no figure in the bills of announcement, nevertheless con tribute in a light degree to the success of the performances ; we mean the ladies and gentlemen who formed the chorus, and the gentlemen of the orchestra. The former ac quitted themselves with judgment and in good taste ; the latter in an artistic and highly pleasing manner, while individually some of them deserved much praise. In particular we were much delighted with the violin solo, ' introductory to the third act of the " Bohemian Girl ,-" and in the same opera we were also greatly pleased with c the clarionet obligeto to Borrani's song, ' The heart bowed down ;" it was performed with tenderness and beautiful expression. As a whole, the operas were eminently sue_ cessful ; the audiences, though not so large as could have been wished or might have been expected, were, never theless, good • and in their delighted countenances was to creditablei n v B o u k r i t, e , b e read the best commentary on the style of the perform anc,es.
