DRURY-LANE THEATRE. —An entertainment of
legerdemain and natural magic was given at this theatre
last night by M. Linski, a noted juggler just arrived from
France. An apology was made fur the deficiencies of the
exhibition, in consequence of a part of his baggage, con-
taining the most important implements of his art, having
been detained at the Custom-house ; but a more complete
performance was promised this evening. There is a great
sameness in exhibitions of this kind. M. Linski's tricks
and deceptions were very similar to those of Hobert Houdin
and other popular escamolciers ; but be seems equal to any
of his precursors in dexterity, and in the marvellous cha-
racter of his feats. His address is very much in his fa-
vour; it is easy, animated, and gentlemanlike, with a good
deal of humour, quite free from vulgar flippancy. lie
speaks no English; and the tact with which he carried on
his intercourse with an English audience, turning his want
of language into a source of pleasantry, was not the least
amusing part of the entertainment lie was warmly ap-
plauded, and seems likely to become very popular.
THE RECENT MYSTERIOUS CASE OF DROWNING
AT LivEstrool..—Yesterday, the coroner for the West
De: by district of Lancashire held an inquest at Bulmer's
Hotel, West Derby, Liverpool, on the body of lt. B. H.
Blundell, Esq., of Deysbrook. From the evidence of the
domestics examined on the inquest it was ascertained that
early on Saturday forenoon he left his house to walk about
his grounds and did not return that night, and that on the
next day search was made for him, when his hat was found
floating in a pond in a field about 300 yards from his own
residence. Mr. Barnes, the surgeon who attended on Mr.
Blundell for several years, gave it as his opinion that,
although somewhat eccentric is his manner sometimes,
there was nothing to convince him that he was
wrong in his mind. The coroner having summed
up, the jury, after an hour's deliberation, brought
in; the verdict— " That the deceased, Richard Benson
Blundell Hollinshed Blundell, was found drowned in a
field contiguous to the lands of deceased, but by what
means sufficient evidence has not been given." Deceased
was for many years magistrate of the county, and one of the
most extensive coal proprietors in Lancashire.
EMIGRATION AND LANDLORDISM.—An unusually
large number of emigrants passed thr.aigh this town on
l'atrick'a Day, on their way to Liverpool for embarkation.
Our attention was particularly arrested by the respectable
appearance of one party ; upon inquiry, we found them to
be persons front the Knoeklofty estate, who have been en
shied by the Earl Donoughmore to emigrate with their
families to America. They consisted of about thirty-five
individuals, all comfortably clothed, and furnished with
ample supplies tar a voyage across the Atlantic. The noble
earl's house steward accompanied this batch, with orders to
provide in every way for their comfort on the passage from
W-terferel to Liverpool, while his lordship has taken his
departure from KnoeLlofty seas to meet them at the latter
port, that he may personally secure for his dependants good
berths and every accommodation on board the emigrant
vessel.—Clonmel Clironie;e.
