ATTEMPTED MURDER IN THE SURREY THE4TRE.-The greatest excitement was created in the Surrey Theatre, on Saturday night, in consequence of the following diabolical attempt having been made by a man named Frederick Quennell, of No, 1, Park-plate, Locksfields, Walworth (a cousin of a man of the same name, who was executed for murder some few years since), to murder a man named William Hurcum, at the Royal Surrey Theatre. From the parti , tulars obtained, it appeared that during the day the accused Quennell and his intended victim were engaged playing a game of dominoes, when some disturbance took place between the two parties, and from words they came to blows. Quennell was heard to say that he would do for Hurcum, nd hang for him, like his cousin did. On Saturday evening a loud disturbance near the stage-door of the house was heard by the audience in the theatre, which, being accompanied by a cry of murder, caused some little confusion, and no little alarm in the house. Mr. Creswick, who was on the stage, at once addressed the audience, and stated that the confusion was owing only to one of th e seere-shifters having taken too much drink, when the per formance proceeded as usual. Upon proceeding to the stage-door, the reporter learned that shortly after Hurcum had entered the long room of the theatre, near the green room, the man Quennell saw him, and having possessed himself of a heavy iron rod nearly three felt long, he came behind Hurcum and struck him over the head, inflicting such a wound as to cause the blood to flow ; atter which he feat him over the legs and other parts of the body with the same deadly weapon, and no doubt would have murdered him had it not been for the assistance rendered by a person named Wm. Leonard, of Upper Green-street, who wrenched the weapon from the fellows hand. Polic e - constable John Measur es No. 160, of L division, at. once went r oun d an d apprehended the man, who was forthwith removed in custody to the Tower-street police station, where the charge was taken, and bail refused for the accused. The unfor tunate sufferer was attended to by Dr. Donoghu e , who said that th e su ff er er had received a v er y severe scalp ' wound, besides other injuries on the body. Th e sufferer remains in a ttrY precarious state, LIGHTING OF THE TOWNSHIP OF TRANMERE Last evening a meeting of the inhabitants of the above township was held at the large room in connection with the Queen's Arms Inn, for the purpose of deciding whether the provisions of a certain act, relating to the lighting of the township should be adopted and carried into effect. The meeting was convened by the overseers, Messrs. C. Hill and William Courter, and , was respect ably attended by a number of the ratepayers, amongst whom we observed Messrs. Willoughby, Routledge, Lightbound, Stuart, Cumming, Rosse, S. Jones, Scott, Hope, Whitburne, Morley, Guy, Edwards, &c. Shortly after the hour appointed for holding the meet ing, Mr. E. G. Willoughby was called upon to preside, in the absence of the overseers. In taking the chair, he called upon each party to give the other a fair hearing, should there be any discussion on the subject. Mr. Jones, the assistant overseer, then read the notice convening the meeting, which, with great minuteness, detailed the boundaries proposed to be lighted, which included the whole of Upper and Lower Tranmere. Mr. Stuart then proposed the following resolution : " That the provisions of the act 3d and 4th, William IV., chapter 90, so far as relates to 'lighting only, be adopted and carried into execution in the district, as set forth in the placard calling the meeting." Mr. Routledge, in seconding the motion, said the time was come when something must be done towards lighting the township. He said the cost for the first year would be about sd. in the pound, and for the next year it might be about lid. Mr. Clothier offered some few observations in opposi tion to the motion, contending that they wanted sewerage more than lighting, but as that would be an expense to the landowners it was not entertained. He made a per sonal allusion to a gentleman present, when The Chairman called him to order, and explained that the twenty-four lamps named were amply sufficient to light the district intended for the present, but after that they could increase the number, (Cheers.) At the request of a ratepayer, Mr. Gill explained th( nature of the clauses of the act. In conclusion, I that unless something was done, and that immediately, the township would be saddled with a much heavier expense. He confirmed the statement made by the seconder of the motion as to the expense, and concluded by express ing a hope that no ratepayer would object to putting his hand into his pocket for so small an amount, when so much good would accrue to the township by having it lighted to the public at large. He denied that the expense would fall so heavy on the poorer ratepayers as had been stated by some persons, and hoped that no unpleasant observa tions would be made Mr. Guy was about to speak to an observation made by Mr. Clothier, but the meeting considered the explanation unnecessary. _ The Chairman stated that the present mode of improve ment would be much cheaper than placing the township under the Health of Towns Act. Mr. Morley thought there was not the slightest neces sity for gas, for during the seven years he had lived in he township he had never experienced any inconvenience from the want of light. After a considerable deal of squabbling, a division took place, when it appeared that there were 42 votes for tae motion, and 16 against it. The Chairman the vefore declared the motion carried, which occasioned a considerable amount of discontt nt to Messrs. Morley, Clothier, and a few others. Mr. Gill then proposed that the following gentle mn should be appointed as inspectors. for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the act—Messrs. Willoughby, Lightbound, Sam. Jones, Routledge, Ley, Guy, Hopley, Houghton, and Cumming. This having been seconded by Mr. Walker, was unani mously adopted. On the motion of Mr. Guy, seconded by Mr. Motram, it was resolved that the inspectors be empowered to call upon the inhabitants for the sum of £l5O, in order to carry into effect the foregoing resolutions. The meeting soon after separated. MR. HUBER'S READINGS FROM GER- MAN POET. 3 Mr. Huber commenced on Wednesday at the Medical-hall, Hope-street, a series of readings from the principal ballad poets of Germany. On former occasions Mr. Huber delivered readings from Schiller's dramas, and from Ger man translations of Shakespere. On this occasion, he con fined himself altogether to:specin3ens of that class of poetry for which, above all others, Germany is distinctively re markable-those wonderfully expressive, suggestive, feeling ballads to which we have absolutely nothing in English literature bearing the least resemblance. Herder, Chamisso, Ruckert, Willer, Burger, and Uhland, the latter, probably, to English readers most popular and ad mired of all. were amongst the poets from whom Mr. Huber selected. Many of the pieces he read were familiar and homely to almost every one—such as Uhland's " Des Sanger's Finch "—(the Minstrel's Curse) —some were, probably, heard by most of those present for the first time. We cannot expect Mr. Huber to satisfy, precisely. every one. but we observe that tho whnlo course comprises only one of Goethe's poems, and does not include at all the names of Wieland, of Salin, of Korner, of Freiligrath, and others, which one would have expected to see there. One name which is included has become, since this course was announced, only a name and a memory—Heinrich Heine, the most witty, irreverent, reckless of the poetic sceptics of Germany. The example of Mr. Huber's readings might be advantageously followed among Englishmen here, We should be glad that some one would give popular readings from some of our great poets and prose writers. Five or six nights a week, on an average, are devoted in Liverpool during the half-year of winter, to the delivery of lectures on all manner of'subjects, by all kinds of lecturers qualified or not qualified. It is not speaking unjustly or superciliously, to say that the sub jects of those discourses are not usually novel, that the views of the lecturers are not invariably the most enlightened, their special knowledge of the subjects astounding, or their power of impressing an audience unlimited. Would it not be a profitable exchange, for popular audiences, if we had, instead of some of the lectures, an occasional reading from some really first-class writer, whose works, perhaps, may never other wise come into the circle of many, who would thus obtain some acquaintance with them ? Might not occasional nights be given at the corporation free libraries, and at the halls usually devoted to lectures and night meetings, for readings from Shakspere and Milton, Bacon, Burke, Macaulay, or any of our front-rank writers upon whatever subject, varying judiciously the theme and the author? Many might thus have awakened in them a love of reading, and a germ of thought, who would pass the shelves of a library dap after day, and never think of opening a book. Even, however, on the most limited scale, we think Mr. Huber's example might be beneficially followed in the public institutions of Liverpool.

A MONSTER DINNER.—The Dowager Marchioness of Londonderry intends giving a dinner of roast beef and plumpudding to 3,000 of her agents, workmen, &c., on Saturday, March 1. This almost unprecedented entertain ment will be given in one of the large buildings in Mr. George Hoyper's new iron works, near Fence Houses. The noble marchioness will herself be present. Newcastle Chronicle. A private letter, published in the Paris correspondence of the Tintes, states, that, this spring, the Russian steam fleet at Cronstadt will consist of 18 line-of-battle ships and frigates, 14 corvettes, and 70 gun-boats. A triple row of piles has been driven right across the Gulf of Finland, six miles from Cronstadt. This maritime bulwark, twelve mi'es across, will have but few openings, and can be easily closed or defended. The writer says— Not a Russian boat can be imperilled let the attack ing force be ever so strong. 'THE GREAT RAILWAY CONTEST.—At the meeting of the Great Northern Railway proprietors, held on Saturday, it was announced that the ruinous competition carried on for the last fortnight between the London and North Western Company with their allies the Midland, and Manchester Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Companies, on the one part, and the Great Northern on the other, has been brought to a conclusion, and after the let of March next the four com panies will again resume their former relations of amity. Mr, Denison, the chairman of the Great Northern, in a very temperate speech, has announced that the questions in dispute are to be referred to the ex-Chancellor of the Ex chequer (Mr. Gladstone), who has expressed his willingness to give hi s good offices as arbit ra t or on the occasion. It is proposed between the contracting powers that the basis of a traffic arrangement, to be extended over fourteen years, shall be immediately submitted for the consideration of the right hon. gentleman, and as the representatives of the four companies are all anxious to carry out a policy of peace, as the only one by which the commercial prosperity of their respective undertakings can be maintained, it is to be hoped that no difficulties will arise in the adjustment of minor details. The Marquis of Chandos and Mr: Denison have, it is hoped, the interests of their proprietary too much at heart to counsel any course inconsistent with an arrange ment promises to award an equal measure of justice to all parties. The spirit in which the meeting received the announcement of a probable termination to the existing dispute shows that no obstacle need be apprehended, at all events, so far as one of the chief parties interested is con cerned. Meanwhile, the public in general, and Yorkshire men in particular, will continue to enjoy the advantage of the low rate to which the fares on our Northern and North Western systems of railway have been reduoed until the Ist of Marsh.

The idea that the e ° b oo into a port was itself a consideration, appears t o e occurred to Chief Justice Willes, in delivering rt'llfiberf# nion of the court in The Mayor of Nottinghron v. Idol Willes's Reports, 115.

Another case, raising ` w hen " question as the last, occurred soon afterwards, soeld: new doctrine was advanced by Lord 1 4 ‘ 1 ; 3 coo' his lordship said, " The making a port is in its the i ser• sideration ; it is a self-evident convenie nce toe °wok; chant; it speaks for itself; it may never requir! 40( therefore I do not know that it is necessary 1 ." 0 fief , repair."..-Mayor of Yarmouth v.
