RHEUMATISM, CHILBLAINS, &c.
OGLES'S ALGA MARINA is the only really
VJ CONCENTRATED Essence of the Sea-weed. It is daily
increasing in celebrity as a remedy for all kinds of Rheuma-
tism, whether Acute or Chronic, immediately relieving the
pain, and sp 'edgy curing the disease. It is the best remedy
for Spinal Allections, Contractions, Weakness of the Limbs,
Scrofulous •4wehings, and all those affections for which the
sea-side is recommended, and is also AN ADMIRABLE APPLI-
CATION FOR CHILBLAINS.
The public should be careful to obtain the original prepara-
tion by asking for " COLES'S ALGA MARINA," each
bottle of which is enveloped in a Pamphlet containing nume-
rous Cases and Testimonials, without which none is genuine.
Sold in bottles, 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d.. and lls. each, by T. KEATING,
79, St. Paul's Churchyard, London ; and by all Chemis s.

Observe in the GENUINE ALGA MARINA the name of
" JAMES COLES " is engraven on the label.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

Goldsmith's play " She Stoops to Conquer " has
been revived here with the greatest success, and
certainly at no other theatre in London could a more
satisfactory performance be witnessed. Mr. Buck-
stone, as Toney Lumpliin, played the part with such
amazing spirit and drollery, that in his hand it be-
comes the pre-eminent character in the comedy,
although the author intended it to occupy a secon-
dary position. It is one of Mr. Buckstone's happiest
impersenati•-ns, and s►ill preserves all its fresh-
ness, vigour, and vivacity. Mr. Chippendale's Hard-
castle is a capital performance, and Mr. Howe and
Mr. Gordon, as Marlow and Hastings, support their
respective parts in a satisfactory manner. Miss
Angel represents the part of Kate Hardcastle with
sprightliness and intelligence, the characters being
better suited to her than some she has represented.
Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Wigan commence a short
engagement here on Monday next.

THE AMERICAN BLOCKADE,

NEW YORK, April 3.—The Prize Court has con-
demned the steamer Anne and her cargo, the brig
Minna, and the schooner Annie. The schooner
Mary Jane, of Nassau, has been captured off Wil-
mington.

HATANNAH, March 28.—The sloop Mary C.
Harris has arrived from St. Mark's, and the Ata-
lanta from Mobile, with cotton. The schooners
Emma and Alabama had also arrived with cotton.
BERMUDA, March 25.—The steamer Cornubia,
from St. George's, with 314 bales of cotton, has
arrived. The Cornubia narrowly escaped capture
when running for IN ilmington. She was completely
surrounded by Federal blockaders, but managed to
escape and run into port. The steamer General
Beauregard, in four days from Charleston, South
Carolina, with 1,000 bales of cotton, arrived at St.
George's on Monday evening. She left Charleston
Thursday night, and steamed directly through the
blockading squadron, not, however, without having
a number of shots fired at her, one of which struck
her. It is said that the General Beauregard can
steam 17 miles per hour. The steamer Gertrude
arrived at Charleston from Nassau with an assorted
cargo. The steamer Britannia has arrived at Wil-
mington, North Carolina, from Nassau. Captain
Warn, of the schooner Laura Ann, arrived yester-
day, reports that on Saturday week he was boarded
by the Confederate steamer Florida, Captain Maffitt,
who requested Captain Warn to take on board 27
prisoners captured from the prize ship Star of Peace,
of Boston, for Calcutta, laden with saltpetre, which
vessel was destroyed. On the day the Florida spoke
the Laura Ann sho took the schooner Aldebaran, of
Rockhaven, and, having put a prize crew on board,
she went in charge of a large American ship then
in sight. The Florida reports having been chased,
after leaving Barbadoes, by the Vanderbilt, and,
night coming on, she tacked ship and stood for the
Vanderbilt, all her lights having been extinguished
and her steam stopped. The Vanderbilt approached,
and hailed to know if a steamer had passed. The
reply was, " Yes, and going at great speed right
astern." The Vanderbilt kept on after the Will•o'-
the-Wisp, and the Florida soon after captured the
ship Star of Peace. The cargo of the Star of Peace
consisted of 9,098 bags saltpetre, 446 bags linseed,
6,750 buffalo hides, 22,500 cowhides, 189 eases lac
dye, 65,500 goatskins. She was a fine vessel of
1,523 tons.

MANCHESTER, April 17.—1 n yarns ktere .r .
an extensive business doing throughout .
the weAt.
Prices have advanced daily, and the market closes
,-1,-d. per lb. higher than on Tuesday. The business
td-day has been very large for all kinds of yarn for
India, at the extreme advance. There has also been
a fair inquiry for China, which has resulted in
some little business in twists suited for that mar-
ket. Buyers for the Levant trade have also been
in the market, at extreme prices. Home trade
buyers have competed pretty freely during the
whole week, and the advance on yarns suitable
to this branch has been fully id, per lb. Tho
buyers for Germany have, as usual, acted with
much caution. This class of buyers seems to be
almost out of the market—a circumstance which
has ben remarked with some surprise. There are
telegrams to the 30th of March from Cllcuttn.
quoting no change. The market w:ls strong and
actiNae A telegram is also reported to the 31st of
March gao•ing the market quiter, in cons«incuce
of the high prices demanded by hold: rs. In cloth
there is still a good deal of irquiry for India, and
very full prices are (it:nal:dud. Daring the week a
very large business 11.,:; been done in mulls and jae-
conets, light shirtil,gs, and long cloths. To-day
there is less business doing, especially in shirtings
and long cloths, which is owing to shippers having
in many cases completed their orders, as well as to
the bareness of the market in fabrics of this kind
suitable to India. With the slackening in the de-
mand, however, there is not the slightest giving
way in prices, and buyers having to make pur-
chases have found that they must give the extreme
rates asked on Tuesday. The buyers for other
markets do not respond, and the demand has been
mainly for India. The high prices check business
for the home trade, and T-cloth 3 and printers are
not in much request, but prices are firm.
CARDIFF, April 16.—The coal merchants are
better supplied with orders than has been the case
for a long time. The market quotations are firmly
maintained, but there has been no actual advance in
prices. The iron trade is moderately active. Con-
tinental orders are principally in hand at present.
There is no change to report in quotations.
NOTTINGHAM, April 17.—A better feeling pre-
vailed in the market to-day. There was a numer-
ous attendance of manufacturers at this Exchange-
hall, and sales in lace yarns were effected more
readily, medium numbers being quoted ld. to 2d.
per lb. higher. Hosiery yarns were also held at
an advance, but the amount of business done was
limited. Silks of all kinds were firm at late prices.
In brown nets there was not much doing. An
opinion prevails that if makers would take less
money for fine sorts a speculative demand would
spring up; but this they cannot do, as these nets
are now selling at less than prime cost ; coarse nets
have still a tendency to give way.

to give our prefernce to those lovely " Stanzas to
Wordsworth," in which, while doing homage
to his chosen Poet, Mr. Worsley proves
himself beyond all doubt to be a oe t also! Milton
he apostrophises on the preceding page in a noble
sonnet beginning finely—
" God gave to thee the keys of heaven and hell:"
But in this very sonnet he says to Milton, a little
further on, almost in the language of a genuine
Irish Bull, that Jehovah
Fashioned thy tongue to speak the unspeakable
Earnestly do we trust that it is less an awful pre-
sentiment than a passing anticipation of gloom
which induces Mr. Worsley in his manly but most
affecting preface to remark of these poetic effusions

thing better, and that possibly with some readers
they may have a permanent value of their own, if;
as I have good reason to fear, my l!fe should liot,
spared for future efforts." Before closing our refe-
rence to these paws of graceful, and scholarly, and
pathetic verse by Philip Worsley, it would be un-
grateful on our part, as numbered among his
readers, and, therefore, also by necessity, among
his admirers, if we did not mention here in terms of
fitting admiration his two classically imagined
and eloquently written Poems opening the Col-
lection—" Phaethon" and " Narcissus," but more
especially the latter. A bounden duty also it
seems almost to us, here, to thank this gifted young
Translator for his metrical versions towards the
close of the volume, of some of the sublimest of
the Catholic Hymns, such as Thomas of Celano's
Dies Ira, and Giacopone's Stabat Mater. Com-
pletely satisfactory they are not, any one of them
as a whole—very far from it in our estimation.
But here and there they are undoubted improve-
ments upon all preceding translations; here and there
they are more than simply satisfactory, they are
wonderfully felicitous. We shall yet hope to have
occasion to congratulate Mr. Worsley later on upon
his having adventured upon " fresh fields and pas-
tures new," with his pains and sorrows passed and
his constitution reinvigorated.

HAYIIIIARKET THEATRE.

Goldsmith's play " She Stoops to Conquer" has
been revived here with the greatest success, and
certainly at no other theatre in London could a more
satisfactory performance be witnessed. Mr. Buck-
stone, as Toney Lumphin, played the part with such
amazing spirit and drollery, that in his hand it be-
comes the pre-eminent character in the comedy,
although the author intended it to occupy a secon-
dary position. It is one of Mr. Buckstone's happiest
impersonations, and still preserves all its fresh-
ness, vigour, and vivacity. Mr. Chippendale's Hard-
castle is a capital performance, and Mr. Howe and
Mr. Gordon, as Marlow and Hastings, support their
respective parts in a satisfactory manner. Miss
Angel represents the part of Kate Hardcastle with
sprightliness and intelligence, the characters being
better suited to her than some she has represented.
Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Wigan commence a short
engagement here on Monday next.

of the moment that it was a surprise to the Ministers of the
Greek Government. The Assembly met, and an inde-
pendent member got up and proposed that they should elect
Prince "William. It was known that Prince William had
been mentioned as the person who would become a candi-
date ; and the Greek Assembly were so anxious to come to
a decision in reference to the accession to the throne that
they elected him by a cclamatien—not on the proposal of
Ministers, but on the motion of an independent member.
The noble lord will excuse me if 1 do not tell him the exact
state of the communications now going on, but I have good
reason to hope that the election which has been made by
the Greek Assembly will be completed by the acceptance of
Prince William and those who are answerable for his deci-
sion.

In answer to a question from Mr. B. COCHRANE,
Lord PALMERSTON said the election was so far the
result of a communication from her Majesty's Govern•
ment, that the Greek Government had been informed that
communications were going on to ascertain if Prince Wil-
liam would consent to be a candidate.
After some remarks from Mr. PEACOCKE, who denied
that the Russian Government had taken umbrage at the
conduct of Sweden, the subject dropped, and the house
went into committee of supply.

ONE Y MARKET;

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
In the Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon
the alterations were unimportant.
There were no bullion operations of pi:olio inte-
rest et the Bank yesterday.

The imports of specie during the past week
amounted to £506,000, and the exports to £140,000.
The Poonab, which leaves on the 20th with the
East India and China mails, will carry £277,024
in specie.'

The money market this morning presents an easy
appearance, and 38 per cent. is the rate for the
negotiation of 3 months' hills.

The Imperial Ottoman Bank at Paris have to-day
issued their proposals for the new Turkish loan of
£6,000,000. It is to consist of 300,000 bonds of
500 f. each, carrying 301. interest, to be emitted at
the price of 360 f., redeemable at 5001, in 23 years,
by half-yearly drawings. The instalments extend
to the 10th November next, and the bonds bear in-
terest from the Ist of January last. Deducting the
interest, and that for the future instalments, the
actual price is reduced to 3421 Mc., giving a return
of Bf. 76c. per cent. The reimbursement at par in
23 years represents 11 89c. extra, and hence the
real yield is 101 65c. per cent. The subscription is
to be open from the 18th to the 23d of April. The
loan is quoted in the Stock Exchange this morning
at 1 to 11 prem.

SUPPLY,

On the vote of £1,143, balance of the sum required for
the maintenance of the Royal palaces,

Lord R. CECIL complained at the Government going on
with supply at so late an.hour (11 o'clock), especially as the
understanding was, when the alteration was made in the
standing orders of the house doing away with the motion
of adjournment on Fridays, that as a rule supply should not
he taken on Friday night:. He moved that the chairman
report progress.
The motion to report progress was agreed to, after some
conversation, and the house resumed.

SADLER'S WELLS.

The "Lady of Lyons," with Mrs, Charles Young
as Pauline, and Mr. H. Vezin as Claude, has at-
racted during the week very numerous audiences to
this theatre. The lady's representation of the
proud beauty of Lyons was a most finished and
beautiful creation, and the Claude Melnotte
of Mr. Vezin deserves the highest commendation.
The audience seemed greatly to relish the perform-
ance, and were most liberal in their applause. At
the :termination of the third and fourth acts, and
also at the close of the play, both artists had to
appear before the curtain.
The manager, Mr. Charles Dudley, must be gra-
tified with the result of his speculation, as he has
entered into fresh engagements with Mrs. Young
and Mr. Vezin for another series of performanees.

UNFOUNDED CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED HIGHWAY
ROBBERY.—George Mills, a respectable-looking young
man, in the employ of Mr. Anderson, dyer, of Howland-
street, Fitzroy-square, was charged before Mr. Knox with
attempting to steal the watch of John Joseph Parry, of 39,
Upper John-street, Fitzroy-square.
Prosecutor said that about halt-past eight the previous
evening, having been out with some friends, he was return-
ing home along the Tottenham-court-road, when the pri-
soner ran up against him and seized his watch chain. He
immediately laid hold of the prisoner, and on a constable
coming up he gave him into custody, when the prisoner
said it was all a mistake.

Fish, 331 A, said when the prosecutor gave prisoner in
charge he said the prisoner had his chain in his hand, but
afterwards, at the station, said he had his watch in his
hand.

Mr. Knox asked if anything was known of the prisoner 1
Tho constable said the police knew nothing of him, bui
his master was in court.

Mr, Anderson, dyer, of 2, Howland-street, said the pri-
soner had been in his employ nine months, and he believed
him incapable of doing ouch an act as that with which he
was charged. He bad always found the prisoner strictly
honest, and he had been working at his house till half-past
eight last night

Mr, Knox said it was preposterous to think that the pri-
soner intended to commit a robbery. What did he find—a
young man of good character ran against by a half-drunken
man, who then fancies he is about to be robbed, and gives
the prisoner into custody for attempting to rob him. Not
only should he discharge the prisoner, but he thought that
if he brought an action against the person who had given
him into custody it would prevail.
Tho accused then left court with his employer.

ACQUATICS.

_
THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE WORLD,
CHAMBERS AND GREEN.

The announcement that a meeting between the above men
would be held at Mr. Kelley's, at Putney, last night, caused
a large assembly to meet at the Bells. There was a great
muster of the rowing men present, amongst whom where
Robert Chambers, Harry Clasper, R. Green, Tom Royal,
George Hammerton, Old John Phelps, Hayward, &c. The
backers of the Newcastle man were present in great force,
and, as business proceeded, had everything almost their
own way. Mr. Bagnall was in the chair, and when the
time of rowing was the mooted question, he, in a few words
stated that as Green travelled from Australia he ought to
have a few points waived ; therefore, the business was con-
cluded by the articles being signed as follows :
" Articles of agreement entered into this 17th day of
April, 1863, between Robert Chambers, of Newcastle-on-
Tyne, and Richard A. W. Green, of Sydney, New South
Wales. The said Robert Chambers agrees to row the said
Richard A. W. Green a right-away race for the Cham-
pionship of the World and £4OO, being £2OO a-side, the
race to be rowed in wager boats, over the usual course,
from the Aqueduct, Putney, to a boat moored
off the Ship at Mortlake. It is agreed that each
man is to be ready at the starting-post at two p.m.
on the afternoon of the 16th of June next, either man being
absent to forfeit all claim to the stakes. It is understood
that this race is to be rowed according to the rules of boat
racing for Champion races on the Thames. It is agreed
that the first deposit, of £5O a-side, is to be made by each of
us on the 21st instant, with the editor of the Sporting
Life, through Mr. Salter, of the Feathers, Wandsworth;
the second deposit, of £5O a side, to be made with Mr.
Pankhurst, Bull's Head, Barnes, on the 7th of May ; the
third deposit of £5O a side to be made with Mr. Wilcox,
White Hart, Barnes, on the 21st of May ; and the fourth
and final deposit to be made with Mr. H, Kelley, the Bells,
Putney, on the 11th of June; each deposit to be made be-
tween the hours of 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., at the above-named
houses. The editor , f the Sporting Life to be final stake-
holder. It is agreed that either party failing to make the
before-mentioned deposits to forfeit the whole of the stakes
down at the time of the stakes falling due, and the cutters
attending the men to keep astern of the sternmost man. It
is further agreed that the referee shall be chosen on the 15th
day of June preceding the race, at twelve o'clock at noon,
at a meeting to be held at Mr. Laidler's, New Inn, Old
Bailey, London.
