A SUWAEII THEATRE.—One of the most curious
theatrical pleasures ever invented by the fertile brain of
Parisian managers has just been contrived at the Porte
at. Martin Theatre, in Paris. Everyone knows how
the approach of hot weather empties the playhouses.
In order that the shopkeepers left in the capital may be
Plitu4cl into the idea of " doing a bit of rural," a large
part of the audience portion of the theatre has " been
eraneformed,'! says the Gazette kusieale, " into a pic-
turesque garden, which rises in he place where the pit
was, surrounded with iron seats and arm chairs, with
leather cushions. The box-lobby to the first tier has
become a greenhouse, filled with flowers and shrubs.
Three of the centre boxes have been suppressed to form
a tower basket, below which is heap of rocks covered
with marine plants. From the centre of these rocks
springs a cascade, which falls into a circular basin ; and
Ve4eivt the acts a jet capriciously lighted by gleams of
gas, springs up it} the midst of the basin, the banks of
Whic4 are garnished with floweFq, plants, and verdure."
TY/1/ iIowiMpMENT OF ReveUluo.---The fellewing
touching letter is written by one of the sufferers by this
event :—"Palermo, June 15.--Pear friend,-1 answer
fogs of the 10th instant, which arrived yesterday. I
am alive by a great miracle, for my drawing-room
has been beaten down into the coif t, and after 19
days of heeling, I am still ill. My house was
completely burned by the ferocious shells. I have lost
my two dearest friends, and my soul is bleeding ; two
other dear friends are in great dadger. An ' ordinance'
promised to protect peaceable citizens who remained
in their houses; and we, whilst obeying thin laws,
were assassinated in our beds. You would not
believe the thefts on thefts, and the assassinations,
'which have been committed by the soldiery, nor in
their velta. They robbed without • restraint, mur-
dered Without mercy, burnt, and then fled without
fighting; despising the orders of their commanders. Thi
is an infamous page in history. They ought to be tried
and shot. Enough, enough. My heart bleeds. 1 feel
as if I could not survive such misfortunes. Your house
was burnt. I shall endeavour to make a demand for
the 'verification and valuation of the loss. The Baron
is well, and had no losses . he saved himself on board.
We, miserable, remained victims. Addio, dear friends,
salute all yours, and weep for me."
