TOTTENHAM-STREET THEATRE.

A New Two-Act Piece was produced here on Saturday,
and repeated on Tuesday night with rather increased effect.
It is culled Mary Graham, and is in the usual style of Scotch
Melo-drame--sufficiently romantic, though without much
claim to unity. The story is told in few words. The
fair heroine, Mary, is the daughter of humble parents,
and betrothed to Donald Rose, a young man of suitable
rank. On the eve of their union, Mr. Wilson, the Lord
of the Manor, steps in with an offer of kis hand and for-
tune, which tempts Mary's parents to cancel the engage-
ment with their daughter's less wealthy suitor. Mary,
however, is faithful to her vow, and seeks protection un-
der the roof of her lover's father. Wilson, who was never
serious in his proposal for Mary's hand, though enter-
taining a design of possessing her on other terms, meets
Donald, and taunts him with seducing the girl from her
father's home, and entailing misery on her family. Do-
nald's young Scotch blood cannot brook the insult, and
the life of Wilson is the atonement. Donald is appre-
hended on a charge of murder, pleads guilty before his
Judges, asd sentenced to death. Old Graham repents,
when repentance is of no avail, and Mary loses her reason.
Such are the materials of which the psece is composed;

but, slender as they are, the play-wright ham contrived to
render them sufficiently interesting to sustain a short piece.,
Mrs. Cri.trusw, as Mary, gave a delicate portraiture of
feminine constancy. The other characters were but in.
differently drawn, but the piece wa► well received.

The Bulletin did not reach the Mansion-
house yesterday till a much later period than usual, and
great anxiety was expressed in consequence. At half-past
two o'clock several hundred persons were collected around
the Mansion-house, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the
messenger. The delay was further increased in conse-
quence of the official letter having to be forwarded to the
LORD MAYOR, who was at this time presiding at a Court
of Common Council. Shortly before three o'clock the Bul-
letin was posted, and gave universal satisfaction.

Rumour has swelled the property of the late
Sir ROBE ILT PEEL far beyond any thing that had been
imagined as its amount. We have heard the personalty
stated at two millions and a half, and the rent-roll of the
landed property at 30,000/. per annum.

A mon tunent is erecting in Westminster Abbey
by Mr. WasTstacurr, jun., to the memory of the late
Mr. TIERNEY. The fund for this splendid remembrance
of him bas been raised by private subscription.

RICHMOND PARK.-(FROM A CORRES-
roNnatix.)—lt has been remarked, and justly complained
of, that Richmond Park, which possesses so many charms
and is many attractions to the surrounding gentry, is almost
the only Royal demesne from which the public are ex-
cluded. Why, it is difficult to discover ; except, indeed,
that it may be considered desirable to consult the secluded
disposition of my Lord SIDAIOUTII. The drive through
the Park from Roehampton to Richmond, as well us the
numerous other beauties which the place presents, renders
it not only convenient but highly advantageous that it
should be thrown open under proper restrictions--such as
preventing the free ingress and egress of stage cuaches, carts,
and hired vehicles ; and we trust that the suggestion in the
proper quarter will lead to the adoption of a more liberal
arrangement, by which those respectable persons who seek
healthful exercise in the 4eighbourhooti of the metropolis
may be no longer exeludt d. Such, we are assured, is the
wish in the highest quarter: It is not improbable that the
subject may be mentioned in Parliament.
