DRURY-LANE THEATRE,

A new farce, entitled "An April Fool," has been
produced at Drury-lane Theatre, which, although
composed of very slender material, affords unani-
mous merriment for nearly an hour. The fun con-
sists of the perplexities, disappointments, and
eventual triumph of a certain Mr. Peddles (Mr. G.
Belmore) in his endeavour to secure the object of
his young heart's fondest affection, Miss Diana
Oldbuck (Miss Lydia Thompson), whose life
it is his happiness to have saved when in
extreme danger from the upsetting of a
pleasure boat cff Brighton. Mr. Poddles
has a vivacious friend Mr. Sparks (Mr. R. Roxby),
who generally contrives to come in for all the
honours following the exertions of Paddles, and in
the present instance, though holding the young
lady in his arms, after having received her dripping
from the sea from Peddles, on her recovery he takes
all the credit of having saved her from drowning.
He is invited to her father's house, while Poddles
is made the means, through the instrumentality of
Sparks, of providing all sorts of fun for the amuse-
ment of Miss Oldbuck and her lady friends. On
the occasion of one of his visits to Oldbuck Hall, on
the first of April, Sparks takes delight in making
everybody April fools. He invites Peddles to Miss
Oldbuck's fete with her knowledge. He tells the
old gentlemen his pleasure grounds are about being
taken for a railway, and points Paddles out as the
surveyor, &c.; but, finally, he is fooled himself, by
being made instrumental in resigning Miss Oldbuck
to the arms of Peddles, as he observes, " for ever."
The little trifle is well worked out, and Mr. Bel-
more drew down immense laughter by his humorous
performance, Miss Lydia Thompson, as Diana,
playing with her usual archness, and in
the course of the piece she dances a kind
of medley with great spirit and effect, Mr.
Roxby rattled through the part of Sparks with his
peculiar briskness, and Mr. B srrett as Oldacre, and
Mr. G. Weston as a poor, half starved charity boy,
both acquitted themselves excellently. The farce
was perfectly successful, and it is to be repeated
every evening until further notice.
The splendid Skakspereian revival, Henry IV.,
increases nightly in attraction, the great effect—
the battle of Shrewsbury—calling down thunders
of applause.

of the 3d Oetobar, I shall hasten 4o place the
monarchy under the safeguard of,tonstitutional
laws as soon as the country shall be-L)aemphhelyS
pacified. The strength of the executive power is,
in my opinion, secured by the precision equally with
the well defined establishment of its limits; it is
therefore my intention, in carrying on my Govern-
ment, to fix such boundaries as may guarantee its
stability. I firmly hope we shall prone that well-
regulated liberty is perfectly compatible with the
reign of order.

"I shall know how to respect the one and to
cause respect to be shown to the other. I Judi
hold high the flag of independence, the symbol of
future greatness, with the same vigour.
"I ask the assistance of all Mexicans who love
their country to aid mein accomplishingmy splendid

procure for us peace and prosperity.

it owes to the illustrious prince whose generous
support has brought about the rog.meration of cur
beautiful country.

FRANCE.

A doable religious solemnity took place the day
before yesterday at the Church of Ruel—the bene-
diction of the new organ given to the Church by
the Emperor and the baptism of a new bell, of
which their Majesties are sponsors. The woodwork
of the organ came from the Convent cf Santa-Maria
Novella at Florence, and was carved by Baccio
d'Agnolo, a Florentine sculptor, contempo-
rary of Michael Angelo. The Emperor,
knowing the artistical value of the work,
had it purchased and presented it to the church
of Rueil. The instrumental part is entirely new,
and is the work of M. Cavaille Coll, who built the
large organs in the churches of St. Denis, the Made-
leine, and St. Sulpice, The ceremony of benediction
was performed by Mgr. Mai, ie, Bishop of Versailles.
The bishop afterwards proceede.ll into the choir,
where the bell was placed, and went :hrough the
:,
ceremony of the baptism in presence of Marshal
Valliant, the Prefect of the Seine-et-Oise, and ti he
Mayor and municipal Council of Rueil. M. and Mere,
Adrien Cramail had been appointed to represent the
Emperor and Empress as sponsors. The bell, which
is about 4 feet 4 inches in height, bears the follow-
ing inscription :—" I am called Napoleon-Eugenie,
having had for godfather Napoleon 111,, and for
godmother the Empress -Eugenie." Below this
inscription are two escutcheons, one of Napoleon
111. and the other of the Empress, and below them
the Imperial arms. The ceremony concluded with
a Domino Salvum fac Imperatorem, sung by the
Orpheonists of Rueil. The church was crowded.

BURIAL GROUNDS.

in reply to Mr. NEWDEGATE,
Sir G. GREY explained chat the law was explicit on the
subject, and required that the minister of the parish should
be furnished with information to enable him to make the
proper registration.

CORK HARBOUR.
Mr. MAGUIR,E asked the President of the Board of
Trade, as to the intentions of the Government with re-
spect to Daunt's Rock, whether they intend to take imme-
diate measures to have it removed by blowing it up, or
whether they have resolved on at once giving the usual
notice of the intention to place a light ship, with tog bell
and signal gun, near it; and, if so, out of what sources do
they propose that the cost of such ligltt ship is to be de-
frayed ?
Yr. M. GIBSON said that the attention of Government
had been drawn to the subject, but they saw no reason to
take on themselves the expense of the work referred to,
which he considered should be defrayed by the shipping
frequenting the port of Cork.
PUBLIC-HOUSES.

Sir J. SHELLEY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department whether the Government had come to
any determination in reference to an alteration of the law
regarding the regulations as to the hours at which licensed
houses in the metropolis should be closed during the night?
Sir G. GREY said that, on the recommendation of
tha publicans themselves, he proposed to introduce a bill

to compel the closing of publichouses at 4 o'clock in the

morning.

HEALTH OF THE METROPOLIS,

(From the Registrar-General's Weekly Return.)
In the week that ended last Saturday the deaths in Lon-
don were 1,501. In the 14th week of ten years 1854-63 the
average number was 1,257, which corrected for increase of
population becomes 1,383. The present return therefore
shows an excess of 118 deaths.

There were 197 deaths from bronchitis, and 104 from
pneumonia; the corrected averages being respectively 152
and 102. The oldest person registered in the week was a
widow, 96 years of age. The wife of a file-cutter, aged 42,
died on the 2d inst., at 12, Plumtree- court, Holborn, from
" effusion on the brain, accelerated by want of nourishment;"
and a razor-strop maker, aged 50, died on the 4th inst., at
13, Devonshire-street, Mile-end, from " bronchitis, accele-
rated by want of necessaries." A gardener died at Plum-
stead of " tertian ague; engorgement of the lungs (two
weeks) ; apno3A." A child of "erythema nodosum ; pneu-

monia."
Last week the births of 1,018 boys and 995 girls, in all
2,013 children, were registered in London. In the ten cor-
responding weeks of the years 1851-63 the average number
(corrected) was 1,966.
In the first 13 weeks of the year the deaths in London
were very numerous; they were 22,733, In the same quarter
of each of the four previous years 1860-63 they may be stated,
as an approximation, to have been 19,000. Hence it appears
that nearly 4,000 lives were shortened, which would have
been prolonged, some perhaps for months, others probably
for years. if circumstances had not been more adverse than

those which attend an ordinary winter.
The weekly deaths rose to their highest point in the second
week, when they were 2,427; they fell to their lowest point
in the 12th week, when they were 1,397. Twice they rose
above 2,000; ten times above 1,600. In the first week the
mean temperature of the air was as low as 261 dcg. The
mean temperature of the quarter was 38.2 deg.
That inclement weather was the source from which sprung
so great a mortality is proved by the Table of Diseases,
Cold weather gives increased returns under many heads,
but bronchitis is, more than' any other disease, the mea-
sure of its intensity. The deaths from bronchitis scarcely
exceeded 2,200 in the warm winters of 1862-63 ; they rose
to 4,023 in the winter now past. Those from pneumonia
rose from about 1,000 to 1,425. Phthisis increased from
about 2,000 to 2.486; heart disease from nearly 800 to 1,027 ;
whooping-cough from about 800 to 913,
17 deaths were ascribed to privation in the quarter. The
average is 12.
The districts on the south side of the river returned more

than their due proportion of deaths from zymotic diseases,
Of 413 deaths from measles, 147 occurred in the south die•

tricts ; of 749 from scarletina 215, and of 172 from diarrhoea
70 occurred in the same districts, Though diarrhcel does
not prevail in winter, there were not few cases of it in
Lambeth and Battersea.

It appeared that Rickman, hearing a disturbance be-
tween the prisoner and some women, Went up
to them for
the purpose of obtaining peace, and had no sooner uttered
than the prisoner
struck him on the breast and knocked him down. The
the words " What's the matter here
constable got up and was felled again, and when down the
ruffian kicked him. Holmes came to the assistance of
Rickman, and was struck and knocked down, but he
brought the prisoner down with him, and for come time
all three were rolling and scuffling with each other on the
ground. There were several roughs and prostitutes about
them, who instigated the prisoner to ill-use the constables.
Tucker repeatedly kicked them, and some time elapsed be-
fore he could be secured.
The prisoner said he had been a teetotaller for a long
time, and that he suddenly relapsed yesterday, and took
some strong drinks which affected his head.
Mr. Paget said if teetotallers were to be credited, they
were a great set of ruffians, for when they violated their
pledges, they were guilty of the most atrocious assaults on
the police and others.
The prisoner said he was very sore all over him, and he
had been ill .used.
Mr. Paget said if the prisoner laad any charge to maks
against the police ho would investigate it. The police were
not allowed to maltreat any one.
The Prisoner—l cannot recollect anything, or who ill-
used me. I was very drunk. I have been a teetotaller a
long time. I remember nothing.
Police Sergeant Stinipson, 21 K, said the prisoner had
been in custody on several occasions, and was the greatest
ruffian in the district.
Mr. Paget said the prisoner had acted with groat bruta-
lity to the police, and sentenced him to six weeks' impri-
sonment and hard labour.

until at last he came to a handkerchief, which contained a

quantity of gold and silver chains. The property had evi-
dently been stolen, and placed there during the night, as
many of the watches were still going with the right time
of the morning indicated. It is expected that these articles
may prove to be a portion of the plunder from a house at
Henley-on-Thames, which had been broken into and robbed
the night previous.

11 RANGE.

A double religious solemnity took place the day
before yesterday at the Church of Ruel—the bene-
diction of the new organ given to the Church by
the Emperor and the baptism of a new hell, of
which their Mi.jesties are sponsors. The woodwork
of the organ came from the Convent cf Santa-Maria
Novella at Florence, and was carved by Baccio
d'Agnolo, a Florentine sculptor, contempo-
rary of Michael Angelo. The Emperor,
knowing the artistical value of the work,
had it purchased and presented it to the church
of Rueil. The instrumental part is entirely new,
and is the work of M. Cavaille toll, who built the
large organs in the churches of St. Danis, the Made-
leine, and St. Sulpice. The ceremony of benediction
was performed by Mgr. Mabille, Bishop of Versailles.
The bishop afterwards proceeded into the choir,
where the bell was placed, and went through the
ceremony of the baptism in presence of Marshal
Valliant, the Prefect of the Seine-et-Oise, and the
Mayor and municipal Council of Rueil. M. and Mme.
Adrien Cramail had been appointed to represent the
Emperor and Empress as sponsors. The bell, which
is about 4 feet 4 inches in height, bears the follow-
ing inscription :—" I am called Napoleon-Eugenie,
hav,ing had for godfather Napoleon 111., and for
godmother the Empress Eugenie." Below this
inscription are two escutchenns, one of Napoleon
111. and the other of the Empress, and below them
the Imperial arms. The ceremony concluded with
a _Domime Saloum Jac Imperatorem, sung by the
Orpheonists of Rueil. The church was crowded.

A robbery was attempted three nights since at
Sept-Freres, near St. Sever (Calvados) on the pre-
mises of a farmer named Hervieu, residing at
some distance from tho village. About midnight,
having been awakened by the barking of his
yard dog, he dressed himself, took his gun,
and went to see whether any person was about
the farm. On approaching a barn a hundred
paces from the house, he saw three men
bringing
out sacks of corn and laying them on a horse, the
bridle of which he immediately seized. As soon as
on
the thieves saw him, they closedhim so that he
could not use his gun, and twoof them beaotnhitmhewalrtnah
