Sadler's Wells Theatre.

This theatre opened on Saturday evening, under
the continued management of Miss Marriott, who
announces her determination to support the repu-
tation it obtained under the intellectual leeseeship
of Mr Phelps. True to these declarations, the
poetical drama is to be the foremost object of the
theatre, although the lighter drama of the day
is to be intermingled, and burlesque and perhaps
sensational dramas will not be altogether excluded.
As an earnest of the entertainment to be given, the
opening pieces were Knowles's truly legitimate
play of " Love," and the last new burlesque of
" Arline."

The play of "Love," as a literary work, is one
of the best of Mr Knowles's productions.
Mr George Melville is the leading actor, and if
he is not a very passionate performer, still he has
many excellent qualities of manner and expression.
The burlesque of "Arline," which was played last
season experimentally by amateurs, has been re-
arranged and rewritten in parts, and was uproari-
ously applauded by an audience that filled the
theatre.

The attendance was all the management could
desire, every part of the house being filled ; and
there seems every prospect of the intelligent manage-
went achieving the success that their enterprise and
efforts deserve.

Strand Theatre.

This house was reopened for the season on Satur-
day night. During the recess it has been entirely
cleansed and redecorated, and has a bright cheerful
look quite in keeping with the light and sparkling
class of pieces to the performance of which it is
specially devoted. The dress circle has also been
enlarged and fitted with spring seats, and with im-
proved ventilation, it may be fairly called the most
comfortable little theatre in London. The company
included no new appearances, but all the old
favourites were greeted with an enthusiastic wel-
come on making their appearance in the popular
pieces of "Short and Sweet," "The Miller and his
Men," and " Where's Your Wife P'' Mr Parselle,
Mr H. T. Turner, Miss Eliza Johnson, and Miss
Kate Carson played Troughton's capital little comic
drama with great spirit and vivacity, and were all
honoured by a recal at the close. Messrs Byron's
and Talfourd's burlesque extravaganza, which was
revived for twelve nights, excit©d the usual roars
of laughter, and numerous songs and dances were
encored. It is peculiarly adapted for showing the
spicialite of the theatre and the company, and was
throughout moat heartily enjoyed and warmly ap-
plauded by a crowded eulience. A new burlesque
by Mr Byron, and a comic drama, in which the
author, Mr H. T. Craven,will appear, are announced
as being in active preparation, and Miss Raynham
and Mr James Stoyle will shortly be added to the
company.

gards home-grown produce, and there is a fair show of
foreign produce on offer. In most descriptions, a fair busi-

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The supply of foreign beasts and sheep on offer here to-
day was seasonably large as to number, bat the quality of
the stock was very middling. On the whole the trade was
steady, at full quotations,
From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts
fresh up were good. The general condition of the supply,
however, was by no means prime. Prime Scots, Herefords,
Devons, &c., moved off steadily, at very full prices, to a
slight advance, Inferior stock was dull, but not cheaper.
The best Soots and crosses realised fully 5s 2d por 81bs.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire amounted to abot“ 2,500 short horns and
crosses; from other parts of England, 860 various breeds;
from Scotland, 57 Scots and crosses ; and, from Ireland,
212 oxen and heifers.

For the time of year the show of sheep was limited, and
the quality of most breeds was inferior. There was a steady
inquiry for prime sheep, and in some instances the cur-
rencies had en upward tendency. Otherwise the trade was
inactive; nevertheless, prices were well supported. A few
very superior Downs and half-breds realised 58 Bd, but the
more general top figure was 5s 6d per Blbs.
Calves, the supply of which was only moderate, moved
off steadily at extreme quotations—viz., from 4s to 68
per Blbs.

There was a fair sale for pigs, at prices quite equal to
Monday last.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The leading country markets held on Saturday were
fairly supplied with wheat, which moved off slowly, at
drooping prices. Tha barley trade was in a very inactive
state, on easier terms. Oats were likewise cheaper, but
other kinds of produce were steady in price.
On the Continent, as well as in America, wheat has been
drooping, with a heavy export demand. In other articles a
fair average business has been transacted, at mostly full
prices.

The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market
last week were moderate. From abroad we received 42,458
quarters of wheat, 6,441 barley, 32,022 oats, 3,021 rye,
1,339 peas, 268 tares, 6,144 linseed, 10,900 rapeseed, 2,550
maize, 550 sacks, and 50,795 barrels of flour.
Including the samples left over ft om last week, the supply
of wheat on sale here to-day, from Essex and Kent, was
moderately good, and the quality of the produce was very
fine. Owing chiefly to the large influx of foreign grain and
flour, the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce
was in a very inactive state, and in some instances the quo-
tations gave way is per quarter. At that decline a clearance
was with difficulty effected.
We were somewhat heavily supplied with foreign wheat,
fresh as well as ex granary. The trade was heavy ; never-
theless, selected qualities were held at full quotations. All
other kinds were lower to purchase.
In floating cargoes of grain the transactions were on a
limited scale at barely late rates.
The show of barley was tolerably good. The inquity
for all descriptions was heavy, and the quotations gave way
Is to 2a per quarter.
Malt was in fair average supply and moderate request, at
late rates.

We were well supplied with foreign oats. The oat trade
was heavy, at a decline in the currencies of 6d per quarter.
Beans commanded very full prices, with a fair demand.
The few peas on cffer moved off steadily, at extreme
rates.

We have to report a dull sale for both English and
foreign flour, at slightly reduced quotations.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 21 per mine pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.30 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appeals that gold is
nearly 3-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
By advic; s from Hamburg the price of gold is 425 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.51 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
1-loth per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg.
The course of exchange at New York on London tor:bills at
60 days' sight is quoted 278 ta 280 per cent., and the pre-
mium on golf 157 to 1581 percent. Gold kill continAlte to
be imported in very moderate quantities.

Sadler's Wells Theatre.

This theatre opened on Saturday evening, under
the continued management of Miss Marriott, who
announces her determination to support the repu-
tation it obtained under the intellectuai lesseeship
of Mr Phelps. True to these declarations, the
poetical drama is to be the foremost object of the
theatre, although the lighter drama of the day
is to be intermingled, and burlesque and perhaps
sensational dramas will not be altogether excluded.
As an earnest of the entertainment to be given, the
opening pieces were Knowles's truly legitimate
play of " Love," and the last new burlesque of
" Arline."
The play of "Love,' as a literary work, is one
of the best of Mr Knowles's productions.
Mr George Melville is the leading actor, and if
he is not a very passionate performer, still he has
many Excellent qualities of manner and expression.
The burlesque of "Arline," which was played last
season experimentally by amateurs, has been re-
arranged and rewritten in parts, and was uproari-
ously applauded by an audience that filled the
theatre.

The attendance was all the management could
desire, every part of the house being filled ; and
there seems every prospect of the intelligent manage-
ment achieving the success that their enterprise and
efforts deserve.

affairs, and that Sir CHARLES WOOD not finding
sufficient exercise for his ability or energy is in a
great measure taking the government into his own
hands. More and more the power of government

is being centralised in Downing-street, more and
more the exercise of authority is being with-
drawn from the Viceroy. By a recent order he
has been forbidden to appoint any official with
a salary of over 400 rupees a month without the
consent of the Indian Secretary. Those who are
familiar with the rate of Indian salaries will at
once perceive that this limit, under £5OO a year,
can only include very unimportant offices, so that
all the legal appointments rendered necessary by
recent changes will have to be dictated from home.
No importent measures are now, it is said, originated
at Calcutta, and to Sir CHARLES WOOD every eye
is turned in expectation. That expectation is not
a very hopeful one, for the two last measures ema-
nating from the Indian Office have spread general
dismay, and excited general discontent and indig-
nation. But the Indian Secretary is not inclined
to rest satisfied with disgusting the medical ser-
vice and irritating the army. He was so well
pleased with the manner in which he administered
the Imperial finances, that, being no longer in a
position to deal with them, he is about to exercise
his arithmetical ingenuity on the Indian Treasury.
It is currently reported that when Sir CHARLES
TRETELYAN leaves India, which will probably be
in the course of next spring, no new Finance Mini-
ster will be appointed in his place, but there will be
a head clerk merely, under the direction of Down-
ing-street. Happily before April we shall have
Parliament sitting, and be able to hear what inde-
' pendent members think of such an arrangement.
Englishmen are not as a rule very fond of cen-
tralisation, as the strong affection which the people
cherish for their old forms of local government and
their municipal institutions testifies. York or
Chester would not be well pleased to have their
affairs settled in London; while the good citizens
of London town itself stoutly maintain their an-
cient rights and privileges. Sir CHARLES WOOD
has not given such satisfaction, either to India or
to England by his obstructive and red-tarist policy
that his attempts to supersede Sir JOHN LAWRENCE
should be regarded with favour even if the prin-
ciple were sound. Bat it is one which is always
regarded with disfavour in this country as the high
road to despotism, and neither India nor England
is likely to profit by its adoption.

past 12 o'clock, he was seated close to his window upstairs
after the business c f the day, and was witness to a deplor-

over by a horse and cart. He went down stairs to the door
and saw the prisoner standing there, and asked him if the
poor man was killed. The prisoner said, <aWhat is that to

were still advancing when last heard from at ten o'clock yes-
tarday morning, meeting with little or nu opposition. The
infantry, consisting of Crook's command, the 6th and 19th
Corps, broke camp atl o'clock yesterday morning, and moved
in three parallel columns towards Berryville ; Crook's com-
mand was on the left, the 19th Corps in the centre, and the
6th:on the right. Crook's command reached Berryville first,
about 12 o'clock in the morning, and rested in line of battle
with arms stacked for two hours, while pickets were being
posted on the different roads leading from Berryville. The
23d Ohio was sent out on Snicker's Ferry road and the 36th
Ohio on the Winchester pike, running to the right from
Berryville. Crook's command went into camp, and had just
finished pitching tents at 4 o'clock when heavy skirmishing
was heard on the picket line. The whole command rapidly
turned out, and was formed and moved to the support of
the pickets, who had been driven from behind some en-
trenchments which they had occupied. The 36th Ohio and
9th Virginia were formed and charged the enemy, driving
them out of the entrenchments. A desperate struggle then
ensued, the rebels being determined, if possible, to regain
possession of the entrenchments. With this oj)ject in view
they massed no less than two divisions, and hurled them
with their accustomed ferocity against our gallant little
band,which was supported by bothDavall's and Thorburn's
divisions. They were handsomely repulsed every time they
charged. The conflict lasted long after the sun had set,
and artillery firing was kept up till 9 o'clock. The whole
army has been busily engaged all night in digging en-
trenchments and throwing up breastworks, and now occupy
a strong position. The whole of the fighting, so far, has
been done by Crook's command, which captured 50 pri-
soners and a stand of colours. Our loss will amount to
about 300 killed and wounded, while that of the enemy is
at least one-third greater. Heavy firing was heard yester-
day in the vicinity of Bunker's-hill, supposed to be Averill
advancing."

Surrey Theatre.

A new sensation drama in four acts, entitled
" A Fight with Fate," was produced at this theatre
on Saturday night last, and was, as it deserved to
be, eminently successful. To ensure for it, however,
a continued success, the pruning•knife must be
used with an unflinching hand, in the first and
fourth acts especially, and, indeed, in some portions
of the piece which told most effectively with the
audience,but which would have been rendered even
mere attractive if the incidents were made to work
more closely together. _ .

The plot abounds with spirit-stirring adventure
of almost every form and kind, and the situations
arising out of the peculiar features of the piece are
of the most exciting and absorbing nature ; and
although the framework of the drama is slight in
its construction, it serves to introduce scenes of the
most startling effect, which have seldom bee❑ sur-
passed upon the stage. The piece, which is really
well written, is put upon the stage with the greatest
regard to effect, and if curtailed of some of its pro-
portions is sure to have a run.

In the course of the performance Miss Paunce.
fort, Mr Shepherd, and Mr Fernandez were hon.
oared with a hearty call, and indeed the efforts o
the actors generally received the marked approve
'of the audience.

The amusing burlesque of "Fra Diavolo" closed
the entertainment, to the groat amusement of an
audience which crowded every put of the house.
