" THE IMPERIAL KNOT-CUTTER AT' BAY Tx sword having been sheathed by the combat ants, of Italy, the neutrality of the non-fighting Powers is at an end.

Just as much as the assumption of this strange and novel character was an incident in a tortuous career, which did not bear its meaning on its face, but only derived when arranged into the many-sided system of a subtle despot ruling with a rod of iron amid the strongest traditions of liberty, so this significant pause in the execution of his schemes is inexplicable on ordinary grounds of reasoning or probability. We cannot felicitate Louis BUON A PARTE on his position. The engineer is in danger of becoming hoisted on his own petard—the with a fashionable and highly respectable company, which included a large portion of the youth of both_ sexes, It is needless to . sq ihey 'We're highly delighted jith the per formances of the talented dramatic company now perform ing there in their laughable farce; "Ticklish Times." It is, certainly a, corps of very considerable talent, and to particularise the performances of Mr. Calhaem arid Mrs. Burkinshaw is the least wocan do. A celebrated barid of belt melodists, under the direction of Mr. Gay, attracted considerable and marked attention. Their performanCe' of popular airs was most happy and effective, and they were repeatedly encored. The weather being warm renders the Zoological Gardens a cool and refreshing retreat, and we adVi4 all 'who have not lately' been there to pay a visit while the dramatic company are there, which, we under stand, is for a limited time only. BANKRUPTCY COURT, YESTERDAY. — (Before Mr. Com missioner Perry )—ln re TODD AND TODD.—These bank rupts were corn and commission - trierthants at Newry, and were recently in Liverpool. This was the hearing of a petition .to. annul the adjudication, ,o bankruptcy against them, on the ground that their 'petition had been presented by collusion and concert with the petitioning creditor, there being no assets to be administered by the court, as stated in the balance-sheet. Mr. John Yates, jun., appeared in support of the petition, Mr. Jenkins for the -petitioning creditor and assignee, and Mr. Martin for the bankrupts. Mr. Yates opened his case by reading the prayer of the' petition ; and the affidavits, in support thereof, and cited various cases as precedents,' in support of his proposition that the court had been int properly made us& of, merely to free the bankrupts from their debts. Mr. Jerkin and Mr. Martin sevlally addressed consistency audacidus arts of ' the intriguer , • are over reaching himself, and he is in danger of being swamped by his own ingenuity. A coup d'etat in the barricaded streets of Paris is easier thUn a coup d'etat in vigilant and armed, and, we may say, con- stitutional Europe. Yet we did not expect he would have so soon called in the aid of this Europe, to save him from the complexities of his own cunning. It was only by the ultimate and complete triumph of his arms, that the "Napoleonic idea" could challenge a footing in Italy, Where now will be the cousin's kingdom, the promised result of that sad domestic pect.ed pride of youth..and beauty ? The Royal Alliance will have been disappointed of its proper fruit, though the sacrifice, forsooth, will be all on the-side of the deluded King, or rather of ed 'daughter', the victim of rapacity and ambition. Nay, if the conjecture were true, that NAPOLEON'S real motive in his 'last aggression was the dread of Italian assassins, and a wish to propi-. tiate their resentment by showing hirns.elf the friend episode, the e the comt.ijopposition to the arguments used by Mr. Yates. His Houour afterwards said. he would look at the cases, and deliver judgment on ' Friday.—ln - re HENRY NELSON HUGHES. -This bankrupt, who was a buil at Wrexham the barter( came up on• his last examination. Mr. Bremner, for the assignees, applied for an adjournment to complete arrange ments the' creditors were making to supersede the bank ruptcy. His Honour, seeing there was no creditor opposing, granted an adjourhment for a month. THEATRE RoyAL.—Last night, a new play in three acts, new to Liverpool, was produced, to introduce Mr. H. Widdicomb, in the character of a money lending lawyer, who overreaches himself in his attempt to overreach a young spendthrift. The play is called " A Bird in the Hand is worth Two in the Bush.'' Mr. _Roderick Praisitoortk#, (Mr. J. C. C6wper) a landed proprietor, is induced to pretend that he is dead, in of Italy, then his retirement from a compromised and defeated cause will expose him to their ten-fold hatred and scorn, and whet the keenest edge of their daggers. lie will have become their deluder, their betrayer, their cheat. He will have raised their loftiest hopes only to shovi that he has treated them talking horse, as a portion of his intrigues, as a branch of a 'selfish and - thascrtipnlous'system. - He will have used the Most sacred cause involving their dearest aspirations—the one faith .of a disappointed existence, the only light of a cheerless exile—as a puppet to be alternately set up as a mask for the interested designs 'of a : foreigner, and then spurned: from his feet, as a useless plaything. They will say, ihat, to being made the slaves of the - Anstrian there needed only the addition of this one further degradation, to.be made a Frenchman's convenience. They will ask, why GARIBALDI left the land of his and for what purpose KOSSUTH and his quondam chiefs were invited from England. Louis NAPOLEON- having provoked a war of nationalities will yet be called upon to show that he did it with some solid prospect or some good intention. The "nationalities" on both sides of , the Alps will not forget it. The republican class of patriots are not short of ; memory, nor slow in revenge. • . - order to try• his two nepheWs; Reginald Prodigal (Mr.' Fredericks), and Theodore Prodigal (Mr. Neville). The latter had been originally adopted, but had been sup planted by the villainy of his brother. The will is read. The whole of the property is left to Reginald, who sells the mansion and contents to Mr. Copias Sharpe, for £30,000, paid to him in his own dishonoured bills, which are inirnedi 7 ately destroyed. The uncle discovers how he has been deceived by . R4inald, and comes forward at the last moment, tears np .the will, and reinstates Theodore in his favour, to the great disgust of Sharpe, who goes off in a Robsonian fit of rage. Mr. Widdieombc played the character very well, and Mr. J. C. Cowper was very good in the part of the Uncle, who, for some time, is disguised as the Steward. Miss Page had an interesting character—a country girl, the wife of Theodore- 1 - to which she, as usual, did ample justice. Miss Edwards was successful in Reginald's fine, lady wife. After the play, Mr. J. C. Cowper carne ;forward, and 'reafd the telegram announcing the terms oivi which peace had been concluded between the Emperors of France, and Austria. • •4- • • rEETING OF THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL • SOCIETY AT WARWICK.

"The conditions of peace are the following : " The Italian confedracy, under the honourable presidency of the Pope. "The Emperor of Austria gives up his rights over Lombardy to the Emperor of the French, who remits them to the King of Sardinia. "The Emperor of Austria keeps the Italian Con federation. A general amnesty is to be granted." DRESDEN, July 12th.—An extra sheet of the Dresden Journal publishes a despatch from Verona' announcing that the preliminary conditions of peace have been signed to-day by the two E:nperors. OPINIONS OF THE CONTINENTAL PRESS IN RELATION TO WAR. The Constitutionnel, in speaking of the probability of peace issuing from the conference of the belli gerent Powers, refers to the feeling manifested by the German press, which is generally pleased at' the change of things in Italy The Cologne Gazette says an arm - istice is the more' ,-- hapPy . that the advantages of the. arinisticO, at least at the first glance, appear to be altogether - for Austria. It must, therefore, be welcome to her, and the more so that she will be likely to obtain new allies, in order to prevent France from extending her views beyond Italy• The National Gazette of Berlin cont ing :—" The - Ruisian cabinet approve of Prussia as exposed in thi at On the 27th ult. England, in answkr to it, endeavoured to per suade Prussia from adopting any energetic course. The Bourse Gazette states on good authority, that when PrusSia's proliosition for establishing a corps of :observation on the banks of the Rhine was brought forward for discussion at Frankfort, Holland voted against it, and Denmark reserved its vote. • At Turin, the armistice has created immense dissatisfaction amongst the patriotic party. The press, however, being under the French regime, no: agitation will be the result of the feeling. AccoUriti from the camp state that dysentry and typhus fever prevail. The thermometer stands at 104 degrees, and there is a great scarcity of water. It is currently reported at Vienna that Russia is to send 60,000 men to Khja to fight against the . Turcomans. There is now only one French vessel of war before Venice. The organs of the press expatiate on. the .quality and devotion: of the nation; but the greatest diSSatisfaction prevails, and people use such language as was not heard here even in 1848. 41).

Mr. Scott -returned thanks . anci, said, " I can to the- new assure you, gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to meet so large a nuMber of my friends as are now assembled around me. The position I now occupy is quite novel to me (never having presided at a public dinner before).
