LONDON THEATRES.—Mr. Boucicalt in a letter to
a contemporary, contrast& the theatres of France and
America with those of London, much to the disedvairtage
of the latter. The entire coot, he nye, of °Destructing
and furnishing • theatre the size of the Haymarket
would be about 15,0004 • the rent of such • building
varies from 3,15001. to 4,0001. • year. He pays at
the rate of 7,8001. for Drury-lane. The Haymarket was
rented for many years at 4,4001.• year, and is worth that
l
amount now. the Priaoters's was let to Mr. Webster for
3,8001. a year, who has sublet it for 4,100!. A rent of
4,5001. was offered for the Adelphi. About 4,0001. &-
year is paid for the Lyeeum. It is an error to pre-
sume that a great risk is attached to this species of pro-
perty. No house-renta are paid with such regularity,
and no buildings are so rarely without tenants. Iu most
cases the rent is payable is advance, and in some lames it is
stipulated that all scenery, furniture, wardrobe, and acme.
swiss made in the theatre by the lessee become the property
of the landlord. Mr. Boucicault pleads for the erection of
a new theatre, wherein the public shall find combined the
improvements of the American and French systems, and in
which the heavy expenses of the present system will
trot be' necessary. Mr. Boucicault concludes :—" Let a
party of a dollen gentlemen—l memo those who complain so
constantly of the discomfort of the dress circle and the
want of room in the orchestra stalls, subscribe end build a
new and elegant theatre. Let them do something graceful
for the pit and gallery, securing the people comfort, room,
and air ; and if there he soy modesty about starting such a
subscription, I will give 5,0001. to begin with."
Ms. COSIAN IN INVIENILSS. —The distinguished
corn-law repealer paid a visit to Inver-twos last week, ac-
companied by his wife and daughter. The party arrived
bare on Wednesday, and intended to take up their quarters
at the Station Hotel ; but the place being crammed with
visitors, Mr. Marshall procured comfortable lodgings for
them in the house of Mr. Jack, shoemaker, who paid them
every atteatioc, and who is naturally very proud of the
honour of entertaining inch visitors. They left here by
the steamer on Friday morning, on • visit to Mr. Ellioe's
hospitable mansion of Olsognoich.--/everisess ddeereiwr.
MISSION TO TES SANDWICH ISLANDS. —By the
but mail we have news of the safe arrival at Colon of the
bishop and two clergymen, who, with their families, com-
pose the ioterestiog mission to the Hawaiian kingdom. They
had • safe and pleasant passage by the Royal West
India Mail steamer Tasmanian, and speak highly of
the kindoem which was sheen to them on board.
They arrived at Colon, the Atlantic port of the
Panama Railway, on the 6th ult., and, though the heat
was oppressive, none of the party were suffering in health.
The bishop was to held a confirmation at Colon on the 7th,
and the party was to cross the Isthmus the next day, the
Norma Railway Company onerously conveying their lag-
gage of charge. The Topaz* frigate is expected daily
at Panams, by which it is hoped the whole party will be
conveyed direct to their destination.
THE RECORDER OF BIRMINGHAM'S SALARY. —At
a special meeting of the Town Council of Birmingham, oa

services of Matthew Davenport Hill, Ere,., Q.C., the learned

DEATH MOE THE KICK OF A Hoseg—Dr. LlE-
kester. the coroner, prosecuted an inquiry at the Lord
Wellington Tavern Univereityatreet, Tottenham-oourt-
road., as to the death of Shah& Brown 37 years of age, an
occasional stableman at the Easton elation livery-stabler.
It appeared from the evidence that oe last Monday fort-
night the deceased was leading two horses into the stables
and in doing so had to pass three other horses, and the
last of rho three (a mare) kicked him on the side of the
bead. The poor man was picked up insessible and removed
to the University College Hospital. The medical testimony
proved that be never sufficiently recovered his senses to give
an aooount of himself. He was subject to epileptic tits,
which supervened, and he died Iran concussion of the
brain, caused by the hose's kick. Beldam. was given as
to the character of the tram to the effect that she was the
y of a gentleman at Canterbury, and had never been
property
ntto kink viciously before or does.—Verdict,
dental death from the kick of a bona."
