Baron von ltailberg, the Russian Minister at
Berlin, returned from seeompanying the Emperor of
Russia to the frontier on the Ntha and hail a long
interview with Baron von Nlthitetort.i. t the scam'
day a Council of Ministers was held for the first
time after an interval of many days.
From articles of a semi official character in the
Zeit and eorrespoodenz it would appear that the
cotime athoht to be adopted by Prussia in relat•
to
the Turkish afloat is changing front a passive neu-
trality to an active mediation.
Prussia and Austria have sent orders to such of
their subjects as are in the Turkish service to return
home immediatel.
Saturday, ling the King of Prussia's birthday, all
the generals in Berlin proceeded to Potsdam at eight
o'cloek in the morning, to pay their respects to his
Majesty. At ten o'clock all the Ministers offered
their congratulations in corpore. In the Academy of
Arts the usual festal speeches were delivered, inter-
spersed with musical performances. Berlin was
generally illuminated at night, and in many private
as well as (Mead circles the anniversary was marked
this year with more than usual heartiness.
The reduction in the Austrian army, according to
the Lloyd of Vienna, will amount to fiwysiti men.
This measure will procure to the treasury a saving of
15,11410,001) florins& year, with t calculating the eco-
nomy which will arise from the diminution of the
number of horses.
There is now stated to be no truth in the report Of

PRINCESS'S.

Tee cast in Tin Birola, as performed at this house,
is not worthy of the management,—a tact very evident
from the thin audience on last Tuesday night. The
pit was only half full. and the boxes were almost
hare of occupants. The only interesting feature in
the performance is the Acres of Harley, which has
been carefully studied. Amid the feeble acting by
which the play was supported, the comic face of Har-
ley, notwithstanding his jerky jaunty tnannerism,
appeared with much of the quaint vigour peculiar to
this performer. His voice is evidently losing its power,
and becoming reedy with advancing years. Though
well conceived, especially in the first scene, in which
he enters as a mere country gentleman, his Acres
dors not tell strongly on the audience, who did not
call for him at the close. Mrs. 1%-instanl( y's Mrs.
Malaprop is commonplace—a mediocre conception.
energetically executed. The Captain Absolute of
Walter Lacy wants brilliancy of colour. Sir Lucius
°Trigger was wretchedly performed ; but we must
give hearty praise to a brilliant hit of acting of Ir..
Walter Lacy in the small part of Lucy. We never
saw it better played. This lady might yet succeed in
those parts which are vacant since the death of Mrs.
Orger.

E►rt. oy Ant:abEys left London on Thursday
morning for Osborne, for the purpose of taking her
Mijesty's pleasure upon the political atTangements
which must follow the resignation of Lord Palmer..
ton.

licsxoen, member of the Court of Common
Council for Cripplegate Within, has resigned his
seat. It appears that the evidence thud he gave
sonic time since before the Corporation Commis-
sioners gave great offence in the City, and exposed
Mr. Ilennoch to insults, inuendoes, and denunci-
ations, which he declares himself unable to endure
longer. " The doubtful honour," he says, "is not
worth the positive annoyance ; anti so long as the
Common Council is constituted as at present I am
resolved to enter it no more."
A " CnatsTmAs Hottn.tv " MoVLMENT. for the pur-
pose of affording workmen and employs throughout
the country a holiday on Monday, the 'with, to replace
the Christmas-day, of which they lose the henerit by
its falling this year on Sunday, has been very widely
and actively taken up. In London, the managers of
the joint-stock banks, most of the great brewer:, and
a multitude of trading and manufacturing firms,
hare announced their intention to suspend operations
on the 21Ith, of course without mulcting those in their
employment of any proportion of their pay. At
Liverpool, Exeter, and other provincial towns, the
example will be extensively followed, and Monday
week will be pretty generally observed throughout
England as a die* non for ordinary business.
A raorostrtov has been submitted to the American
Government to subsidise a private steam-packet
company, to establish a mail communication between
New York anti Shanghai nisi the Pacific ocean,
which it ie believed would open up a vast trade
between the United States and China, the rasters
parts of India, Japan, the Eastern Archipelago, and
Australia, anti enable correspondence to anti from
those parts anti Europe to be conveyed in a month's
less time than at present. The subsidy named is
two million anti a half of dollars per annum.
Tin: submarine cable across the Firth of Forth
and Tay is being laid down, so as to complete the
chain of telegraphic communication between the far
north of Scotland and the south.

The Belgian Government has at last abandoned
all hope of being able to renew, or even prolong, the
commercial treaty between this kingdom and the
Zollverein—it treaty which expires at the end of this
n th, and which not a little favoured the cord and
iron of the former. A general movement is now
being made in the large iiiii infacturing towns of
Belgium, pariieularly iu ‘'eniers, for the abolition,
or at all events the reduction, of the duty on east
iron, and in some platys for the free admission of
coal. The Belgian tiovernment is said not to be
indisposed to accede to a reduction of duty till both.

Eltphaate of the East, have been produced at ibis
tlitatre, for the purpose of introducing a couple of
tl.e half-reasoning quadrupeds just named. Their
ft ate of elephanune dexterity are certainly CUTHAti
enough. They balance themselves on their ferelegs,
spin round on tubs like tectotnms, and rertorrn
various posttuising ;Ludes, which prove highly ethi•
larating to the audience. According to the theory of
ra vitati on , bodies exercise attracii,u iu the ;inset
ratio of their magnitudes. Theatres aro not usually
governed by mathematical rules ; bin the law appear~
likely to hold good with regard to Mr. Cookess corps
of elephant-actors.
A New THEATRE to be erected iu the centre of the
most aristocratic district of London, Is, it is stated,
in contemplation by M. Alphonse Ruiu de rye, who
has obtained a committee of patronage composed of
men as remarkable by their birth and fortune as by
their morality, and, what is of quite as much import-
ance, the support of several capitalists. The new
temple of the drama, it is aJded, will have a mejestic
outward appearance, while, at the same time, its in-
terior will be moot brilliant stud eumputoue, the
ensemble to be on a larger scale than any other in
the metropolis. It is to be called the Chlregrophical
Concert Theatre, and will be supplied with the must
celebrated singers, both male anti female, with first-
rate instrumental performeN from the Continent,
with choruses more powerful than any even In Ger-
many, with a formidable orchestra, tinder the Aires-
Hoe of the first musical leaders of the day, and a
brilliant ballet company, commanded by
Bartholomin, who has been engaged by the directors;
for three years, Si first ballet-master, at an annual
salary of 2,000/. It is stated that IL Berlios will be
the principal leader of the orchestra, and that he is
now actually in Germany recruiting his 120 musicians.
The intended site for the new theatre iv said to be
Lichfield-house, St. J ames's square.

ITALY.

A letter from Naples, of the 4th of December,
states that new difficulties have arisen between the
Neapolitan Government and M. de Mattpas, the
Frew It Minister. l'tider pretence of the appearance
of the cholera at Pails, all persons coming front
France are subjected to a vigorous luarantine, which
has excited much discontent. 31. de Manlius has
addressed an energetic note on the subject to the
King of Naples, threatening to return to 111111 l and,
it is said, hinting that, it' the affair were not set right,
he might rind it necessary to request the French
Government to *tend some ships of war to Naples.
It is stated on good authority that the French
troops in Italy have withdrawn front the various
posts where they were quartered, and are now con-
centrated at Rome and Civita Veechia. On the otlwr
hand, the Austrian garrison of Tuscany has been
greatly reduced, and the Austrian forces in the Le-
gations have withdrawn from their smaller posts,
and concentrated in Ancona and Bologna. These
arrangements are in pmsuance of an understanding
between the Cabinets of Paris and Vienna.
The elections in Piedmont have terminated, and
the result shows an overwhelming majority in favour
of the Ministers. 4 hit of Bis members, whose return
is known, 12:1 are Ministerialists ; 40 belong to the
Left Opposition ; and only 15 to the priests'
Party. or Right Opposition. There were only
twenty-six elections unaseertained.

the writ received at the Hanaper-office, which di-
rected the election of a burgess "in the room of the

gnence of the death of Lord Cloncurry." The Hon.
Cecil Lawless, who died shortly after his father, was
the second son of the late Lord Cloneerry, and it waft
the demise of Mr. C. Lawless that created the %a-
coney in the representation of cloriteel. The writ
has been, in consgettenco, sent hack to London. The
Speaker will have to issue a new one, and the election
cannot take place until the week after next. Mr.
Hamilton has retired from the eontest, leaving Mr.

An essay in English was afterwards read by Mr.
M. Melvin, son of the rev. principal of the college,
who had carried off four prizes, although only in his
first term. Subject, "Is it justifiable for other na•
tions to compel China and Japan to open their trade
to the world ?"

In his subsequent address to the students, the
Chairman dwelt upon the nature of the duties which
awaited them in the country whereto they were
destined :

" The service they were about to enter was second to
none in importance and honour ; and, as promotion
depended upon themselves, they must be careful how they
discharged their duties, as they might depend upon it their
conduct would be most closely and carefully watched. The y
were about to proceed to a country where they would food
everything different to what it was in England. It was in-
habited ley races of men differing from them in religion,
lammage, and manners, and they must be careful when they
came into contact with the natives not to offend their Kee
jeulieese. Ile was happy to say that the natives were rapiAily
emerging from that apathy into which they lead for b 0 long
appeared to be sunk. and they were now making great
advances in the attainment of the various branches of
European studies. It wee the duty of those who were
proceeding to India to study the character and respect the
religions prejudices of the natives. in order tee gain their
confidence and re spect. The natives were possessed of
feelings as sensitive as their own, and they must at all
times be careful not to give them of brace. Though they
would be so fur absent from home., he could assure them
that their conduct would be most closely watched. The'
rapidity of communication now existing lead brought them
into such close contact with England that the eyes of all
intelligent and thinking men were fixed upon the Indian
Government, and the conduct of Indian officials. They
must be active and zealous at their several posts—try to
attain excellence in everything they undertook—and we
member that the Indian civil service was a field in which
the best men got the twat situations. They must try hard
to improve their position, or they might rely upon it they
would be outstripped in doe race. an that probably by the
natives, who, as he had informed them, were making most
rapid a4lvances in the attainment of knowletlp.. It

PERIODICAL LITERATURE.

The Irish Quarterly Review. For December. No.
XII. Dublin : Kelly.
THE position taken by this periodical, and its avowed
hostility to the " Manchester economists," give
importance to several of its opinions. Mr. Glad-
stone's application of the income tax to Ireland is
severely censured, and a contrast is made between
the liberal views recommended by some of Lord
Derby's followers and the syst,.m adopted by the
present Cabinet in dealing with the financial inter-
ests of Ireland. "The Streets of Dublin" series is
eontinued in this number; but the compiler should
beware of making it tth, like an edition of White-
law's and Walsh's history. The memoir of "Mack-
lin the Actor" not original, and we should not
wish to see inure papers of this style inserted in
the high Quarterly. Periodicals should avoid com-
pilation and the reproduction of antiquated matter.
Though not brilliant in its style, there is a homely
vigour and an elevated purpose in the /ride clime-
terly which impart to its pages considerable value.

by the magistrate sent down in custody to Fareham
to be examined by the local justices. The only
charges against him of which the bench could take
cognisance were those which related to certain
alleged frauds. It was stated that the prisoner had
shown papers purporting to be drafts or orders for
money to different tradesmen, and obtained advances
upon them. One of these documents appeared to be
an order for 15/. from the rector of the parish for
salary ; and another a draft for the same amount on
the prisoner's uncle. Both were dishonoured on pre-
sentation and stated to be forgeries. Evidence upon
these charges having been given, the prisoner was
committed for trial.
As ATTEMPT TO GET re A CoMr \NV seems to have
been chiefly instrumental in causing the insolvency of
Mr. J. B. flora, whose affairs and conduct were
placed before the Insolvent Court for judgment on
Saturday last. The scheme in question was called
the City of London Brewing and Malting Company.
While trying to set the project on foot, the insolvent
had raised money on accommodation bills, and the
expense of the atfairluul caused his embarrassments.
lie had issued prospectuses, and the capital was to
be 1,000,000/. During his examination Mr. Lloyd
was asked how he was induced to connect himself
with the affair. Ile said the public press complained
of the brewers and the beer supplied ; and at a
tavern which lie used the subject was discussed. Others
were of the same opinion, and l►e started the com-
pany, which continued but for a few months. The
British Bank were the bankers, and all that was
paid in was 101. Ho got 51/. of plated goods from
Messrs. Sarl for the purposes of the company, and
immediately pledged them. Some were pledged on
the day following that on which they were obtained.
It was complained that the debt with Messrs.
Sarl had been fraudulently contracted, or without
reasonable expectation of payment. The insolvent
had been in great distress since he bad been in prison.
Mr. Commissioner Phillips, in delivering judg-
ment, said ho thought the company looked like a
juggle from beginning to end, and consequently
ordered the insolvent to be remanded for seven
months'', for contracting a debt without reasonable
expectations of payment.

He is well known, says the Gazette of that city, for
his Panslavist tendencies, and it is thought that they
have already taken root iu Sen is.
The Government of Baden has inlOrmed the
various I;ennan tioveniments of the qualTel between
the Grand I►ukc's Cabinet and the Archbishop of

the priests who refuse iml►licit obedience to his
order; and the Government, in its turn, continues
its coercive measures against the priests who obey
the orders of the archbishop.
According to the Correspundence of Berlin, it, is
