of that question, instead of leaving members to wait there

Lord JOIN RUSSELL, 'darting to the answer of the

that the bill end the proposed net tlutiona did not coincide.

Mr. HATCH/ILL Joked the Attorney-General for Ire-
land whether it wen the intention of her Majesty's govern-
ment to introduce s bill this session to abolish the privilege
of freedom from arrest et present enjoyed by official debtors
in Ireland, in socordance with the recommendation of the
Debits Chamber of COMMONS !

_
Madd the subject of the question was no
doubt important, but it would be impossible to deprive the
parties named of freedom from arrest, without abolishing it
also in the case of members of parliament.

PERSIA.

Mr. GREGORY caked ii the British minion had been
recalled from Hero; If the Indepondence of Herat, as gua-
ranteed in the lan treaty of pone with Penis, was no longer
to be insisted on ; and if ao, whether the main object of the
lan war had not been abandoned ? The ►oo. gentleman also
asked whether the Persian government had not advanced a
claim to certain territories eastward of Herat P

Mr. 8. FITZGERALD mid the term " British mission"
was hardly applicable fa the present instance. Colonel Taylor
was sent with some other Bridals °dicers to Herat In ceder
to see that the etipulatione of the treaty for the evaesation of
that city were punctually fulfilled; and se soon se that had
been done the mission of Colonel Taylor was substantially
performed, and he returned. The independence of Hest as
guaranteed by the treaty of peace wee fully recognised by
the Persian authorities; and he (the hon. gentleman) had no
reason to think that that stipulation would in any way be
evaded. As to whether "the main object of the lees war
had not been abandoned," it was hardly for him (111 r. Fitz-
meld) to say; insomuch u the Persian war had been
begun, carried on, and ended by the Ate government without
an explanation being to the Howe of Commons.
(Hear, hear.) Cleims had been set up by Persia to the
territories to which the hon. gentleman referred ; but her
Majesty's government had received information from Mr.
Murray that in osnesquence of hL expostulations the Per-
sian government had admitted they had no right to the ter-
ritories In ganders. (Hear, hear.)

if ÜBDEROUB ATT.! CX.

On Thursday evening, in the Compton-road, Wol-
verhampton, two brothers, namediantes and Patrick Jeffries.
under the influence of Wince, brandished their sickles, and
wounded several persons by striking them with these dan-
gerous tools. One man bled from a wound in the upper pert
of the face • and another was also cut, and when a policeman
named Fends had hie attention first directed to the ruffians,
they were artuallyraenacing an infant in a carriage. Fe
fie at first tried quietly to penned' them to put up their
sickles; but they at once turned upon hire, threatening
him In the moat violent and repulsive language. As he
was no match for both, Ferris quietly recommended them
to walk on, determining to follow than till he should come
up with another constable ; bet they became so violent
that he found it necessary to attempt to capture James
Jeffrise, who, from his violence and great stature, appeared
the most dangerous. While endeavouring to seize and hand-
cuff him, Frauds Jeffries attacked the officer, and James
aided him. The first blow of the former's sickle fortunately
wee oblique ; but it out of the brim of the policeman's hat
Ferris endeevoured to ward off other blows with his walking-
stick; but a heavy blow from a sickle cut his stick in two.
The oilier then retreated a few paces, at the same time es-
thevouring to get out his staff, when be was closely followed
by both brothers, who shouted, " Now we shell have the
—; now we'll have his life." The next blow of • sickle
we. parried with the truncheon; but the following struck
the officer's left arm, occasioning a frightful wound on the
elbow joint. The blood flowed copiously; and late wild
beasts, infuriated by the sight, the Irishmen again sprang
upon the officer and one sickle was coming down !upon him
with a force which must have killed the poor fellow, when
policeman Marlow arrived just as the ruffien'e arms were
uplifted. A timely sad well-aimed blow eared Ferris's life,
sad knocked down his antagonist; and Ferris then knocked
down the other. They were both handcuffed and taken to
the police-station, and Ferris was conveyed to a surgeon's,
where his wounds were dressed, and lhe was than takes
home, where he remains In a very precarious state. On
Friday the prisoners were brought up at the police court,
Wolverhampton, when Marlow and Mr. De Lane, si=
gave evidence; and as Ferris was unable to give his e
the Warners were remanded for a week.

ROYAL SURREY OAIDENB.

Yesterday, a new attraction was added to the
already considerable bill of Lore which the managers of this
pleas of resort offer to the public. Rightly conceiving that
after the way curiosity has been excited with regard to every-
thing Preach, by the Cherbourg Pee, a mimic fair, such se
is to be met witleacrose the Channel, would not be unacaept-
able to their pstrone, they have proceeded with oimmendatila
vigour to carry out the ides. A host of stalls, peep-shows,
and other matters which the rustic mind regards as marvels,
have been provided ; and the visitor Is invited to consider
himself In France, with such aids as bits of Norman costume,
and soaps of French can afford to his imagination. Nor
must an Inscription be forgotten to which great prominence
is given—. Here vs spike Anglin." The number of
adablishments bearing the legend "From London" is
also very great, and would encourage the belief that a
at of unusual enterprise has come over the race of Shorts and
Codling. One thing, however, the managers have not beef
able to Import into their fair, and that is piety, which we are
Informed is en attribute of the genuine pima. The merry-
makers of yesterday took their pastime se sadly as their fore-
fathers of five hundred years ago, when Sir John Froiaaut
first became aware of our national characteristic. Neverthe-
kW, pastime they moat have found it, If an opinion might
be formed from the grave but contented countenances of the
hundreds who disported themselves in the many•ooloured
blase of the variegated lamps. The fair is to continue till fur-
ther notice.

Steamy mo ming last, by • merle! named Thomas Foreids,
ander mattmes of 14 yams' penal servitude, which, from the
manner in which it was planned and carried out. reminds
one of woe of the exploits of Jack Sheppard. The convict,
who had ban at wadi daring Saturday with the other pH-

the was @Maid was newly at the top of the building,

DRAMA.

LYCEUM.—MACHETE.
The production of a Shakesperian play at a West-
sad theatre, unheralded by any preliminary puff, and relying
solely on the merit of this acting and the beauty of the lan-
guage, without having mouse to the adventitious aid of
scenic embellishment, is an event of rare °emetics now-a-
days. Such an event took place Lut night at the Lyceum,
iktelyth being the tragedy revived, and the occuion of the
revival being the tentiaary engagement of Miss Helen
Faucit. We have no doubt that the unity will command
considerable success for some length of time, so admirably
has it been token ie hind. The ties en sane Is excellent, the
wensry and dresses goo& the attention to detail conspicuous,
and best of all, the small parts arc all capitally susts.d. Of
the chief characters we can speak with the highest praise.
The character of Lady klecLeth' though Ina identified with
Miss Fatieh's name than that of Pauline Deschappelles, is
ens of the best creations, more especially in the
first act, where the 1 rst advances of ambition steel-
ing her heart against all womanly feeling, are
delineated with fearful fidelity. Equally good, too,
were the expressions • her dismay In the banquet ;scene,
where Macbeth stands agho.t at the sight of Banque's ghost,
and the effort with which she recovered her composure and
tads bee guests farewell. Every one acquainted with Mr.
Hake's Nein would imagine that he would play Macbeth
with • wets& amount of dash and spirit but without wit-
wooing it few would give hi,i credit fur the really finished
unsure of the performance. '1 Lcre is • great deal of thought
in his coaceptiou aid arristi: rah it in his pourtrayal of the
character he does not tell into the mistake so common of
making Macbeth a ph.ieal coward he ie bold even until the
murder of Duncan le committed, but front that moment he
droops. Each successive net of blood renders him more
despicable in his own eyes, and it is not until the last scene,
when the old sold'er's spirit flashes up anew within him,
when once more he feels the harness on his buck, that
he regains his natural courage and insensibility to fear.
The entire strength of the company was enlisted for the
revival, the three Witches heirs played by kissers. Toole,
Calhoun. and Holston ; while Locke's beautitul music was
admirably sung by a large chortle, the solo parts leing taken
by Mrs. Alfred Helton and Miss Webb.
. .

At the fall .4 the curtain Miss Fiut it and Mr. D.llon were
I,udly called for; and a similar compliment we paid to Mr.
Stuart, who had acted Macduff with Lunch spirit and rugged
pathos.

MR. RontoN.—That he is, or ever can be, the
great actor some critics have alleged—a possible Kean, who
has only to make the attempt, in eider to electrify the world
as Shylock or Overreach—is a proposition we should be sorry
to endorse. The cipabflity of real and sustained passion, the
dignity of conception, the metery of voice, feature*, and
gesture, the continuous development of character, which are
necessary fur the tragic drama, are something very diffident
from those etfel bursts of intensity and vehemence in Hr.
Robson, which are mistaken by many for • high order of
histrionic power. The absence in this performer of good
Mate, of the instinct which knows where to stop, has always
made us distrustful of his power to rise to any great eminence
even as a comedian ; sad the constant tendency in seri ma
parts toexaggeraied vehemence in his expression of emotion
makes us donbt, whether he has not permanently injured
hienself by she habit of caricaturing feeling end passion in
those miserable travesties which have generally k.pt him
before the public. His Mite do not disappear with time,
but rather masers ; and it ie to be feared, unless this pro-
mising artist turns • deaf ear to his flatterers, and devotee
himself to • careful study of life and character' to may sink
wn
into a mannerist, who wiU go on reiterating his "effects
long alter the public have gro callous to them. If be is
to do any good, he meet give up burlesque and mere farce,
at least for • thee, end try to get himself acted with cha-
racters which will test his capabilitiee, and teak them to the
uttermast.—Freser's Mayeerm for February.
