Capture of Long Shore Pirates,

Revelations lately made at the police courts in
the neighbourhood of Plymouth have established
the fact of the existence of an organisation for pur-
poses of crime amongst the juvenile criminals of the
neighbourhood. Lads from 12 to 20 years of age
seem to have become possessed with a desire to
imitate the exploits of celebrated criminals, forget-
ting that the increased population and altered
manners of the age render now such careers per-
fectly impossible. On Friday another of these
combinations was detected in Plymouth, the offen-
ders having exhibited a desire to copy the adven-
tures of Capt. Kidd and similar buccaneers. Their
depredations were made by sea, and they, like Kidd,
had a store for their plunder, a mimic Key of the
Bahamas. For several days past the watermen's
boats moored near the Great Western Docks have
been plundered. Iceignificant and even valueless
articles have been taken, as well as better plunder,
the boats being stripped of everything moveable. A
barge was also visited and lightened of a quantity
of bones and soldiers' old jackets. At first it was
net easy to see at all how these robberies could have
been committed. The plunder could not be found in
the premises of the dock company, and it was known
that at each of the company's gates, by day and by
night, an unimpeachable member of their vigilant
police was posted, and who could not have allowed
such lumbersome articles as sails and ropes to pass
him unnoticed. At length the robbery of the barge
threw light on the affair, as a waterman's boat was
missed, and when found she bore indications of hav-
ing been employed in the carriage of bones such as
had been stolen. It was thus conjectured that the
'docks were entered by the thieves, and some of the
watermen's boats were employed in carrying off the
stolen articles, the boats thus used being, artfully
enough, left uurobbed. Over the offices of the
M ill bay quarries Mr. Steer, the foreman of the lime-
burners, and his family reside. From their win-
dows a view of the quarries can be commanded.
Leading out of the quarries to the eastward of the
West Hoe Baths is an old tunnel and arch, formerly
an entrance to Three Holes-quay, but which is now
unused, as is also the quay, access to the tunnel
being nearly closed up with rubbish. About the
breakfast hour on Friday morning Mr. Steer, his
wife, and Mrs. Mitchell, a daughter, noticed some
suspicious looking youths going into this tunnel,
who subsequently left with large bundles. A second
visit was also noticed during the morning, and again
the lads left, carrying packages. This roused curb-
sity, and Mr. Steer, accompanied by some of the
men employed in the quarries, visited the tunnel.
The result of their inspection was a discovery of
part of the property missed from the docks —sol-
diers' jackets, pieces of rope, canvas, a smockfrock,
and other articles. Kessell, the Hoe constable, was
at once communicated with, and an ambush was
laid. Shortly after three o'clock the lads again
arrived, and, with mistaken caution, came into the
tunnel one at a time. As each made his appearance
he was taken into custody and handed out, and thus
four of the young thieves were taken in succession.
The ambush, however, was broken up too soon, for
it was seen when too late that a fifth lad was
leisurely coming over the Hoe with a bag under his
arm, who, observing several persons collected round
the store, beat a speedy retreat. The parties cap-
tured have given the names of John Williams, Thos.
Jones, James Widger, and James Musty.

THE NEW " SENSATION KETTLE."—The demand
for sensational novelties has led to the improve-
ment of that common article of domestic utility the ordinary
kettle. We have now the "sensation kettle," to which the
principle of steam power has been adapted. On Thursday
the new apparatus was exhibited in operation to a number
of gentlemen at Mr. J. Stent's, the Talbot Hotel, Great
Charlotte-street. It consists of a cast-iron pedestal 3 feet
in height, with hexagon base, fixed to the counter on which
it stands, The upper part of the machine contains a tray
for the reception of from two dos?,n to 30 tumblers, which
may be kept warm or otherwise, as circumstances require.
There are two brass kettles of globular form—one for hot
water and the other for coffee ; and below are two taps for
supplying at all times fresh cold water. There are also
ther taps, from which hot water car. be obtained.
Bereath the kettles are two atmosph?ric rose burners, con-
nected with the gas main, and having stopcocks, each
burner consuming at the rate of not more than two
cubic feet per hour. Above the kettles, and close to
the cap of the pillar, are two cocks, each entering the lid,
for renewing the supply ; and there are also affixed to each
kettle floating valves, with indicators to show their con-
tents. The tray is ( laborately finished by an elegant per-
forated brass band, appropriately burnished and lacquered.
The apparatus is a gift from Profresor Anderson, the
Wizard of the North, to Mr. otent, in remembrance of
many acts of kindness conferred by the latter gentleman
during a period of 20 years. The machine, which exhibits
remaikable ingenuity, was brought from Edinburgh by
the manufacturer and patentee, Mr. John Lawrie, brass-
founder, &c., of that city, and is the fire t introduced into
England. It bears the name of the patent " Wizard
Kettle." The fitting up was entrusted to the Liverpool
United Gas Comi. any, and carried out under the supe-
rintendence of Mr. H. V. Dobson. The result of the trial
yesterday was highly successful, and the apparatus appears
to be well adapted to its intended purposes —Liverpool
.Mercury.

THE LATE FIGHT BETWEEN KING AND HEENAN.
—An application was made yesterday to Mr. Justice Shee
at Chambers, in the case of the Queen v. King and others,
by Mr. Thomas Beard, the attorney for King. He, with
Heenan, Sayers, and several others, engaged in the late
prize fight, had been committed by the Wadhurst bench of
magistrates to take his trial at the Quarter Sessions at
Lewes for an alleged breach of the peace. The application
was for a writ of certiorari to remove the indictment from
the sessions into the Court of Queen's Bench. His lordship
granted the application, and the is dictinent, which was to
have been tried this day, will be removed.

BARBARA'S HISTORY. By Amelia B. Edwards.
3 vols.—"ll Miss Edwards (bays the Athenceuni)
goes on writing such stories as ' Barbara's History' she will,
on some bright day of a lucky season, wake up and find
herself famous. Miss Edwards has qualities superior to
mere literary facility and acquaintance with the artifices of
her art, bile has humour, insight into character, and a
somewhat extensive knw.vlalge of books. We give her
full credit for having written a thoroughly readable and
deeply interesting novel."

art belonging to the King, and has also only bequeathed the
seventh portion of her property to her family, the remainder

ROYAL ENGLISH OPERA,

Last night a new operetta, entitled " Fanchette,''
the music by Mr. W. C. Levy, was produced with.
complete success.

Tne action is supposed to take place in Douay
(La Vendee) during the reactionary political dis-
turbances of 1794. The Marquis de Beaupre, a
Royalist leader (Mr. W. Harrison), is forced to
take refuge in the house of the Republican mayor
of Douay (Mr. H. Corri), whose niece, Fanchette
(Miss Louisa Pyne), a young lady of very decided.
Royalist principles, is the marquis's foster-sister.
Beaupre is betrothed to Hortense de Layal (Miss
Thirlwall), but Fanchette, to rescue him from im-
minent danger, passes the nobleman off as her own
lover, Pierre (M. Rouse). This occasions all sorts
of mystifications and ludicrous contretemps, and
matters are pushed so far by the impatient major
that Beaupre and Fanchette are compelled to go
through the preliminary ceremonies of marriage,
and the real Pierre is about to be consigned to pri-
son as the supposed marquis, when the dea.h of
Robespierre is announced, and Douay, besieged by
Royalist troops, declares for the monarchy. Beau-
pi 6, thus master of the situation, proclaims a
general pardon, and the happy lovers return to
their allegiance. The music, as the production of a
young composer, contains much that promises well
for his future. There is a vivacity of style, and
an occasional feeling for dramatic effect, that may,
with continued culture, develop into some-
thing more important than the present effort.
Among the most remarkable pieces in the operetta
are a highly spirited trio for soprano, tenor, and
bass, "My uncle here!" a fresh and graceful
chorus, " May many years of wedded bliss ;" two
melodious duets, for tenor and soprano, " Home of
our youth," and " The good old time ;" the songs,
" How sad all nature " (soprano) and " The true
love-knot" (tenor), the last-named being most
likely, we believe, to achieve extensive popularity.
Miss Louisa Pyne was in the best possible voice,
and sang her very best throughout. Mr. W. Har-
rison's part is every way suited to his voice, and
Mr. H. Corri threw all requisite humour into the
character of the mayor. The other characters were
ably sustained by Miss Thirlwall, Mr. Rouse, and
Mc. Aynsley Cook. The band, conducted by Mr.
Alfred Mellon, who was loudly applauded on enter-
ing the orchestra, fully maintained its web'. won
reputation, and the one chorus which " Panel tette"
contains was sung irreproachably.
At the fall of the curtain Mr. W. C. Levy was
led on by Mr. W. Harrison to receive the ,con-
gratulations of his admirers.

Mr. Thaelteray's daughters have left Lond
and are now staying with attached friends at the Isle .of
Wight, close to Farneyford, the residence of the Pc ,et
Laureate.

LISZT AND THALBERG.—Mendelssohn's opinion
of the two great pianists of his day is thus express, Sd
in a letter to his mother, dated Leipzig, 1810 :—Liszt
here for a fortnight, and caused quite a paroxysm of excb;e-
ment among us, both in a good and evil sense. I consid( r
him to be in reality an amiable warm-hearted man, and a o
admirable artist. That he plays with more execution tha
all the others, does not admit of a doubt; yet Thalberg,
with his composure, and within his m ore restricted skhet
is more perfect, taken as a virtuoso ; and this is the standard
which must also be applied to Liszt, for his compositions
are inferior to his playing, and, in fact are only calculated
for virtuosos, A fantasia by Thalbarg (especially that on 00
" Donna del Lago") is an accumulative of the most exquisite
and delicate effects, and a continued succession of difil
culties and embellishments that excite our astonishment;
all is so well devised and so finishea, carried out with such
security and skill, and pervaded by the moat refined taste.
On the other hand, Liszt possesses a degree of velocity and
complete independence of finger and a thoroughly musical
feeling which can scarcely be equalled. In a word, I have
heard no performer whose musical percepti•.ns, like those
of Liszt, extended to the very tips of his fingers, emanating
directly from them. With this power, and his enormous
technicality and practice, he must have far surpassed all
others, if a man's own ideas were not after all the chief
point, and these, hitherto at least, seemed denied to him
so that in this phase of art, most of the great vittuosos
equal, and indeed excel him. But that he, along with
Thalberg, alone represents the highest class of pianists of
the present day, is, I think, undeniable.

A SUBMARINE SHIP.--A correspondent of the
Times writes to that journal:—" I have had nay
attention called to an article which appeared in the Times
about three weeks ago in reference to the Russian Govern.*
meut, who you state are now building a submarine ship,
which is made to float between the water and to rise and

sink when required. It is to be worked by a compressed-
air engine, and is fitted with apparatus for fixing torpedos
on the bottoms of ships it purposes to sink No doubt many
of your readers will recollecthaving seen plans of such a ship?,
which I exhibited at the Society of Arts, 1848, and also of
the compressed-air engine, a small model of which I
made, from which model I demonstrated that I could
obtain as great a pressure by air as by steam. I wrote
to the Aumiraity, and submitted soy plans to thew?
which were returned about three months afterwards by Sir
Baldwin `Valuer, who stated that the Lords of the Adrai-
ratty were not then in a position to undertake them. I have
not since then adopted any fur her steps to get the matter
taken up, but no doubt the Russian Government, who aro
more in the habit of encouraging invention than our own,
have taken copies of my plans and are now working they
out with the greatest secrecy. I may add one advantage
which my submarine ship has over thet which the Russian
Government is building. It is provided with a round"
house (or cupola) on deck, from which, when the vessel !e
raised to the level of the water, observations can be mace
of surrounding objects and country."

A prospectus has been issued of the Panul2illo
(Cuilian) Copper Company, with a capital of
X 200,000, in shares of £4. The object is to purchase
and work a well-known copper mine about 43 miles
from the port of Coquimbo, with which it will soon
be placed in connexion by railway. The ores are
of low percentage., but in greater available quantity
than at any o'her mine in the world. The price to
be paid for the property, including seven 4urnaces,
tramways, and plant, is 1120,000, of which
£41),000 is to be in shares and £BO,OOO in cash.
At the half-yeany meeting to-day of the share-
holders of the Loudon Dock Company, an increased
dividend of li, or 11 15s, per cent. for the past six
months was ordered to be paid,

Two O'CLOCK.
At the Paris Bourse this morning (according to
Mr. Reuter's telegram) the Three per Cent. Rentes
Were quoted at 66f. 70c. Rather firm.
The Market to-day for the English Funds has
presented a rather active appearance. The improve-
ment of about percent. yesterday induced a num-
ber of operators to come forward and effect sales,
Which at one time sent Consols down k, but they
again show a slight recovery, and the quotations
are 91 / for money and the 7th inst., and 911
for the February account. The New Threes and

DOCKS.

Mr. Lilley addressed the jury for the prisoner, and con-
tended that the witnesses were in such a state of inebreity
when the captain was robbed that their testimony was not
to be relied on. He said it was just as likely the man had
lost the money as that he had been robbed of it.
The jury found the prisoner guilty.
A po►ice constable said the prisoner had twice before been
summarily convicted for etealing whatever he could lay his
hands upon in dockyards during the hours the workpeople
were at meals. On one occasion he cut a supply pipe from
a ship, which would occasion the greatest inconvenience
when it was discovered, the ship having proceeded to sea
before the loss was discovered. He had also been taken
into custody with a quantity of Muntz's metal concealed
about his person.
The Recorder asked the constable if he had ever known
the prisoner do any honest work.
The constable said the prisoner had worked now and
then in different dockyards as a lumper.
The Recorder sentenced him to 18 months' imprisonment
with hard labour.
