DRAMA.

OLYMPIC.
Having long sines used up the Countess D'Anoia,
and the net e( the toffy historians, the burlesque writers are
now compelled to prey upon their brother dramatists for
subjects. Lest night Mao:midi*, ludicrously perverted from
the original, formed the basis of an extravaganza by Mr.
Robert Brough, who is decidedly the freshest, wittiest, and,
beyond all question, the boldest punster end parody writer we
have anaceg us. His new effort is literally bristling with
jokes not these word-torturing efforts which with some
funny men now pass for smart writing, not those dear old
Maeda the rhyme and repartee to which most be guessed by
thsaadisnes immediately after they am spoken, but brilliant,
ekterisg, wellikuipen coin, fresh from Fancy's mint,
which only ring the truer the more they are tried, and which
will bear that test which is greater than that of the teeth,
repetition by the tongue. Beyond the mere verbal jokes, a
keen sense el the ridiculous pervadea the piece ; for •
example, the absurdity of pantomimic eapreadon is
&desirably est birth in the dumb show of Fossils, who te wails •

until immediately before the conclusion of the piece, when,
in his rued scene, he gives that extraordinary melange of
tragedy and comedy, those mingled touches of pathos and.
humour, in which be is unrivalled. Two er three parodies
of popular airs, more especially one in which be accompanies
hisnaelf on the bones, were excellently sung end obtained
vociferous escort% Miss Swanborough looked very hand-
some as Alphonso, and Miss Thirlwall as Lorenzo sang with
much taste and spirit. A line in the bills stated that •
"Among the novelties in this piece it will contain so paro-
dies on ' Bobbing Around,' Kemo-kimo,' or ' Our Mary
Anne'" We had nevertheless an excellent parody on
" Peaky Ike," a Yankee ballad of the same genre
arranged as a trio, and sung with great effect by Mesdames;
Swanborough, Thirlwall, and Hughes. A mortal word of
' commeneation must bo given to Mr. 0. Cooke, who played a
policeman with much unctuous humour, and to Mdlle. Hock-
man, a very pretty dthritante, who gave grace and piquancy
to the dumb motions of Pencils.

The curtain fell amidst the loudest applause, and general
calls were raised for the author, who however did not appear.

CHATHAM, JULY 2.
The Ganges, which has been lying for some
time in ordinary in the river, is ordered to be made ready for
or
with all despatch. An order arrived et the headquarters
of the Royal Marines this morning for a draft of 61 men of
all ranks to go on board that venal under the command of
LiettL 6. H. Mot.

BAILING OF LADY FRANKLIN'S EXPEDITION,—•
The Fox screw steamer, fitted out at Aberdeen by Lady
remain, sailed from that port on Wednesday morning in
search of the remain.; of Sir John Franklin and his crew.
The wee! has been supplied with every article of equip-
ment which could possibly be desired, and many and valu-
able have been the gifts that have leen presented to aid in
the department of provisions. There was a large concourse
of egmetaters t when the Fox left the dale, who
cheered Ca M'Clintock and hie gallant crew lustily as
they along. Lady Franklin and her nine, Sophia,
were present, and it was a rather remarkable coincidence,
that as the Fox got nuns weigh the Lady Franklin brig and
Sophia, which were both purchased for the Arctic 'earth,
under Captain Penny several years ago, should just have
left the harbour under the charge of the mute Captain Penny
to purrs the whale fishing during the autumn, and, winter-
ing in Cumberland Straits, resume the Malang again in
eppscrita. The Fox steamed away to the north, and is ex-
to make the ice in a week or ten days.
FINSBURY PARK BILL.—At a vestry meeting of
St. Jamaia, Westminster, held yesterday (J sly 2), a resolu-
tion moved by Mr. Iti4ood (who reprevonts the vestry at
the Metropolitan Baud) to petition parliament in favour of
the bill, was carried by a large minority,
BATHS, WASH-MATSU, AND WASTE PLACES IN
TR. WARD OF FARkINODON WITNOUT.—Last night a
meeting of the inhabitant householders of the above-named
ward was held at the Sessions-Loos in the Old Bailey, for
the purpose of receiving a report from a committee in refer-
ence to the proposed establishment of baths and wash-homes,
and for the beneficial appropriation of the waste sites in the
populous ward of Farringdon Without. In the shone° of
ifiir James Duke, M.P. (who was attending to his parlia-
mentary duties), the chair wee taken by Deputy Obberd,
after which Mr. Pentifex, the ward clot, read the report,
the substance of which was as follows —lt specially net forth
the leas and distress caused by the protracted neglect to ap•
propUate beneficially the vacant sites within the ward, in-
stancing New Farringdon-street, Smithfield, the site of the
late Fleet prison, and others, chewing thereby less of
trade, falling rent., and declining rates. The erection of
suitable dwellings upon some portion of these sites was spe-
cially recommended, and the establishment of babe and
wash-hoses shown to he mat desirable in the crowded
locality comprised within the boundary of the ward. The
report having been received and adopted, on the motion of
Mr. Harding, seconded by Mr. Potter, Mr. George Roes
spoke in condemnation of the civic authorities, because of
their tardiness in effecting objects of utility when they had
the opportunity of doing so ; Mears Gresham and Kirk, ad-
deemed the meeting, and the motion was declared to be
carried. Mr. Lindner then moved a resolution .
the apathy of the corporation in the matter; at=
thanks were voted to the chairman, and the meeting se-
parated.

EDOWAUE PF.TYY SESSIONS.—At the petty Wl-
sines yesterday at Edgware, Josiah Mull was charged with
stealing GM. from the Bev. Herbert Teweon. Mr. Herring
appeared for the prisoner, who is well known, having been
the echoolmsater and organist, and • lecturer upon
various subjects. Mr. Tevneun, who is nephew to the incise-
bent, is now resident at Wkk, near Bath ,• but in September
lest he was Teething in the wheel hone., Whitehurch, Little
Stanmore. On the fah Nov. he received 671. 4e. from Sir H.
Ellis. He placed the money in hie desk, which he locked.
On the following day he went out to dinner ; on bin return
he noticed that the position of the desk was altered. Next
day he missed the money, as well as a purse containing the
money. A person resembling the prisoner called at Mr.
Bennett's, in Cheapiltle, giving the name of the Hon. C.
Ponsonby, and purchased eeveral watches, changing the
stelae 601. note. He afterwards sold or pawned the watches
at different places. An assistant swore positively that the
lightener gave one el the stolen 61. notes in payment for 100
copies of &mildew:oll Allen'. Hymn-book, which had been
previously ordered by • letter purporting to come from the
Rev. H. Neale, of Oxford. The prisoner was remanded.

tones at the same time. Now they oceientrata
their demand fur free labour on fiat elk whew,
alone perhaps in this world Wry omit Set free
labour--Western Africa.

A small emigration from Africa to our fifteen
West Indian poesessicess would have no influence in
working out the experiment. Such aldi-
tions to the working population might bring
down wager in these colonies a little, but that is
not the ground on which the national assent and
approbation are asked to this scheme. The great
object can only be achieved by a great, an enormous
emigration. And what we desire to know is how
great, how enormous this emigration is proposed to
be. Cuba has already a slave population of 600,000,
Brazil of 3,000,000. These are the numbers whose
slavery the West Indian project has to render un-
profitable. The enterprise is not therefore a light
one. In the name of all that is rational, let us have
some notion of its extent before we wildly rush to
its support. Don't let us be amused and tickled into
approbation by a syllogism in political economy
which no one disputes. Abundance or supera-
bundance of free labour in our Sugar Colonies might,
could, should or would render the 600,000 slaves in
Cuba and the 3,000,000 slaves in Brazil, at some
period or other in the economical history oldie future,
unprofitable, and lead to their emancipation. But are
England and France to set about depopulating West
Africa on such a vague and illimitable nay-64 IP
Are wo sure that if we could get free labourers
in West Africa freely to emigrate to the West Indies,
we could induce them freely to work there? The
emerineipated peasantry, a much higher class, a pea-
santry which knows the value of systematic industry,
which is fond of throe enjoyeL.nts and even luxuries
of life that can only be obtained by labour—this
peasantry (the West India proprietary complain)
will not devote themselves regularly, industriously,
perseveringly to the cane fields and the sugar mill.
They prefer (we are assured) squatting on waste
land, or their own provision grounds, or engaging
in petty huckstering. Well, but if an intelli-
gent, a cultivated, a native-born, an English-
speaking, a Christian peasantry, aro thus chary
of bard work in the West Indies, is it to be
supposed that negroes newly imported, having
none of these advantages, subjected to none of
these influences, unaccustomed to systematic in-
dustry, ignorant of the language of their employer.,
and frequently of the language of each other, will,
without any legal compulsion, and without the temp-
tation to work for the purpose of gaining the means
of enjoyment, become, by virtue of their transporta-
tion to the West Indies, first dam, or even tolerably
good labourers ? The supposition is a wild one.
Then, there is all the danger of a change of
climate, and • change of life, %r habits, and of
amociations. These changes necessarily involve a
serious mortality. Have we, the people of England,
any meal right to subject Africans, whom we may
transport to the West Indies for the advantage of
West Indian proprietors, to this extraordinary
morality? In the annual Reports laid before
Parliament it is shown how great is the want of
medical skill and science in the West Indies, and
bow frightfully the peasantry have suffered from
tkis want. Yet, notwithstanding, the West India
Body propose a wholesale emigration of raw Africans
to their sugar estates. Heaven forgive them!

A DOUBLE NUMBER of the " EXPRESS '
will be published TO-MORROW.

NOTHING could place in a clearer point of view the
error of those economists who, like Mr. GLADSTONZ
and Mr. Ewer., insist that the military establish-
ment proposed for the current year is greatly in
excess, than the demand now made on it for troops
for foreign service. No doubt these two able men
will reply that this demand is an unforeseen and
unexpected emergency, and that the Minister, in
preparing the estimates we objected to, did so on
considerations in which hostilities in China and •
revolt in India were not included. But it is pre-
cisely the possibility of such emergencies occurring
that constitutes the great difficulty of the War Mi-
nister. He has to provide against that which is
unseen and may never occur, as well as against
reasonable probabilities ; and he has at the same
time to ask only for such numbers as he can defend
and justify by popular !aeons in • popular
assembly.
. .

The general necessities and requirements of
the empire must be studied, settled, fixed,
and, when determined on, maintained. In all
non-essentials, in all superfluities, in all job-
bing tendencies, let the most rigid and rentoneleas
economy by all means prevail; but in all uses-
tials, let nothing prevent our being true to the
empire and to ourselves. That empire cannot
be in permanent security without an adequate mili-
taryforee.

Already Imperial neeessitke in China and India
are drafting out of the realm and its European
garrisons a fores not far short of 20,000 troops.
Now the number at which Lord Fanttru has
estimated the QUEEN'S land forme for the current
year is 126,000 of all arms ; • number which
did not contemplate any such demand as this
for China and India. Happily we hays advanced
se ler In training the Militia and in collecting
isle mews and organises, our army, that we
have hoes sad sae to a poetise to answer this de-
emed ea our military resolute, with a rapidity and
DOM= perfectly asexampled in our history. But
asverthebes, the withdrawal of so large a portion of
she wall mils" of troops we have at home aad
In the Madtteraustan garrisons is not a pleasant
carsurser, wises we Wok of the enormous armies
which Rasta. France, and Austria have quite
unemployed. Far be it from as to preach alarm, or
to contend that we are in any danger. Bat these
great drafts on our army for the Fast, sad the
present uncertainty to what extent they may go, can-
not have a tendency to augment oar influents in the
general councils of Europe at a time when both duty
and interest invite as to take a very prominent part
therein; and our safety against external attack
results quite as much from the Improved morality of
our age as from our military preparations.
That the hostilities in China may prove short is
the prayer of every rational Englishman ; and that
the molt in India will be suppressed long before
the troops sent out pass the Cape of Good Hope is
a nameable expectation. But confidence in a Native
Army ones shaken is not easily revived; and WO
Nowt look forward to a considerable increase of
the (Icemen Army in India for some years to saw.
The average number of Royal Troops in the pay st
the East India Company is 30,000 ; by the additives
now making that number will be increased to
44,001 ; and who can say how long this larger
number may be required in India ?

In proportion to the number of Qualm's troops

Yesterday news reached Turin, and was instantly
transmitted to London and Paris, that the steamer
Cagliari had been seized by armed Italian insurgents
while on her way from Oeuoa to Tunis. The in-
surgents made at once for the island of Poem, over
against Naples, where they landed and liberated a
number of rimers.
The Mossier was captured by a Neapolitan fri-
gate, and the king's troops were in pursuit of the
insurgents.

The insurrectionary attempt at Leghorn has been

WSTANTINOtLE, Irma 22.
For the last dim lays no cigar- cooking has been
seen here, et WA not in the streets of the city.
This is became the Sultan has been informed that
the late conflagration at the Top Kapn Seraglio was
occasioned by. a burning cigar which had been
thrown away, in consequence of which a ministerial
intimation was given to the inhabitants of Constan-
tinople, that " whoever had any regard or affection
for, the Sultan should leave off smoking cigars."
These few simple words suffleod to induce the 'Turks
to abandon cigar smoking altogether, and betake
themselves to the tchibouk or the noryliife; bat with
the European residents the case is different, and
several unpleasant incidents have already arisen,
since the Turks want the express desire of their
monarch to be respected by the Europeans as well aa
by themselves.
Dimensions have broken out again at Jaffa about
the use of the Gregorian calendar. The patriarch
there has Mined a circular to notify that the Greek
catholics must henceforth observe the Gregorian
calendar. The patriarch in this matter has the sup-
port of the French consul, Dl. Philibert, whilst the
Russian agents labour to make proselytes to the
cause of the calendar of Julian. The French consul,
in order to give effect to his views upon this question,
went in full uniform, and with the whole consular
staff, to attend the church service upon a great occa-
sion, but this only augmented the dissension and
animosity, which prevailed to such an extent that
we may expect to hear of an actual conflict.
As an example, on the other hand, of the Turkish
tolerance in religious matters, it maybe mentioned
that four days ago the local authorities of this city
allowed the band of music belonging to the Turkish
Marines to turn out in full parade, upon occasion of
• religious procession of the Greek church, in order
to enhance the splendour of the ceremony.
The affair of the Belgian minister having his pass-
ports sent to him seems likely to saunas some im-
portance. The day before yesterday several of the
foreign ministers called upon M. Biondi, and it is
rumoured that those of America, France, Russia,
Spain, and Sardinia will present to the Sultan a
joint note upon the subject. A meeting of the above-
mentioned diplomatists has been held at the house of
M. Boutenieff, the Russian ambassador.

The steamer Cagliari, which had left Genoa for
Timis, fell into the hands of the insurgents, who
attacked the island of Pouza, belonging to the
Neapolitan government, and set at liberty the per-
sons imprisoned there.
The imargents, with the released prisoners, then
landed at Sapri, in the lower province.
Some Neapolitan frigates captured the steamer
Cagliari, sad the royal troops pursued the insurgent
band.

The political prisoners who escaped from the
Island of Pons were about 300 in number. In
conjunction with the insurgents from on board the
Cagliari, they attacked the Neapolitan gendarmerie
in the province of Salerno, but were dispersed, and
many of them taken. The remainder fled.

Tate missose of what is called Free African Emi-
gration to the West Indies, but which will really
prom le be a insdieed Slave Trade, is one of far too
alarming and serious import to be lightly diamined t
and the assarances given to Lord BaorcnAn by the
Earl of CiAIIUIDON were so vague and unintelligi-
ble m to anguaeot rather than dimini►h the appre-
hensions of them who ere resolved that, in no form
