Mr. Byron's burlesque of Eily Marourneen, which
was played last winter at lhrnrydaoe. has been traosterred
to this little house, where, with Kim Wilton and Messrs.
Rogers and Clarke in the principal characters, it creates
enormous hilarity.

CirzisTY's MINDISKIR.—These old and exceed-
ingly popular favourites ramie their re-appearance before •
London audience last evening at St. Jareas'oliall. Their
entertainment, which was as varied and as Lnighter.pro.
yoking as heretofore, was reoeived with as much satisfaction
as though it had bees its Snit representation. The per-
formances of this band of minstrels are too well known to
need any description or comment. They will give their con-
certa every evening during the week, cad ea Saturday morn-
ing next at three o'clock, and so doubt will be largely
patronised by old friends, es well se by many of the visitors
with which the metropolis ia tow so full.

I.7IIIIOUPN IJPI AT.
On Saturday a gentlemen connected with the
National Lifeboat Instion wilted this Ninths, whiali ie
in commotion with the society. He found everything in
excellent order—the lifeboat mounted on her transporters
ready for iustantaneou service, either day or night. Neatly
the whole of the equipments of the heat are kept in her,
and are of the most perfect character, no expense eirklently
having been spared in obtaining the very best of every
fathom el rope and at every other article bets to the
lifeboat. How often it happens, in the lifeboat serries,
that, after incurring great risk, perhaps during a midnight
storm, to fetch a wreck, the whole success, under the
blessing of God, of the lifeboat, in rescuing the
half.drowned sailors, will depend oo the strength
of the rope which the lifeboat has thrown to them I
The Exmouth lifeboat is, u is geoenilly known, the
gift of the Lady Rolle to the National Institution. Under
the joint superintendence of Captain Await., R.N., and
Mr. William Hawkins, the chief officer of Coast Guard,
the station is maintained in gestate of thorough efdsieeey,
and fully maintains the graphic description given some
two years ago of It in Dickens " All the Year Round."
Agate, attached to this station is • beautiful barometer
(Negretti and Zanibra'e sake) supplied by the institute=
for the use of the seafaring population of the town. Its
movements are very closely watched by them. These are
registered daily on • Meet, DO that any one eon at once
read off the instrument. The barometer was, like all three
made for the institution, tested thoroughly at the Greenwich
under the superintendence of Mr. Weieher,
(13,1:1114.7.71b70re it was sent to this place.
A few remarks oo the reading of this standard barometer
during the put mouth may not be uninteresting to the
general reader. We observed that the state of the in-
strument on the let ult. was 30.11. It gradually receded
mita the 6th, when it was 29.40, blowing fresh from &S.W.
It then gradually rase until the oth, when it showed 30.6.
strong breeze from W.& W. The lowest point touched by
the barometeriltt A o'clock, a.m., at this station, during the
month, was 29.83: this was ea the 12th. On the north
west of England its variations ware so doubt much greater,
for the lifeboats of the society at Fleetwood and Peomon
were, during heavy gales of wind OD the 26th tilt., the means
of saving two vie w& and their crews from destruotice.
At midnight, ou the 6th instant, it blew at Exmouth a
gale of wind front 8.8. W., the barometer standing 29.78.
One or two mask got ashore is the storm, but soon got off
▪ The price of the barometers is only five or six guineas,
and we know sod eta mere valuable gift toa Ilehbg loality
than mei an instrument.
We trust the officers of the National Life Boat Institution
will tad all the life boats of the society on the west coast
equally as efficient as the one at Exmouth, and that this
great and national institution will continue to have its hands
strengthened by the benefactione of the public and the
legacies of deemed comae.
