LAMBETH-STREET.

Yesterday. Sarah, the Wife of Thomas Walker, a well-
dressed and good-looking young woman, was charged before
Mr. HARDWICK with attempting to cut the throat of her hus-
band, and also with nearly severing the tops off two of his
'tigers.
Tho prisoner said that her husband was in the constant habit
of ill-using her, and treating her with great indifference, and
also cohabiting with a female, by whom he had-a chill.
This the husband denied; and the prisoner was ordered to
find bail, and give twenty-four hours' notice of its solvency, to
keep the peace towerds her husband.

THE AUTUMN OF LIFE.—" A phrase fraught
with meaning, and suggesting the gravest reflections—bring-
ing in review the elasticity of youth and vigorous manhood as
contrasted with the sober bearing of declining years : yet if
the progress of rue,licad and chemical science can obviate one
of these symptoms, and stay in a manner the swift hand of
time, such results must change the currerit of sad reflection,
and be productive of the highest gratification. The Loss of
Hair, one of the most annoying prods of the inroads of ruth-
less time, has been most successfully supplied, and the success
of Oldralyes Balm of Columbia in these cases has been no
less remarkable, than important to thousands who have expe-
rienced its powerful effects in encouraging or reproducing a
fine growth of Hair." The Balm is contained in bottles, of
which the smallest size (price 3s. 6d ) strengthens and fixes
weak hair; the next in s.ze (price 65.) produces hair on the
partially bald, and creates whiskers, &c. ; and the largest
(price 11s.) completely restores the hair of the head both to
the middle-aged and the young. No other prices aro genuine ;
and it is requested, that to guard against counterfeits, the
public will apply to none but respectable venders, or at the
office, No. 1, Wellington-street, S.rand, London.

A frightful scene occuried on the 6th inst. at the
theatre of Czeney, in Bob miss, during the performance of a
melodrama, called the Bear of the Illanntains, the principal
performer in which was a bruin of such wonderful docility and
dramatic talent, that for a long succession of nights he at-
tracted overflowing audiences. On this occasion, however,
something had put this star out of humour, and he was ob-
served to be wanting in those brilliant displays of the histrio-
nic art which bad previously overwhelmed him with ap-
plause. In the third act, instead of coming down the moun-
tain by a winding-path, with the slow and solemn step pre-
scribed by the prompter's book, ho alighted on the stage at
one bound, like the descent of an aerolite. On his return
behind the scenes. ho received r,proofs, which, instead of
improveing, made his temper still more sullen; and it
was with difficulty he could be prevailel upon to go through
' his part. In the last scene he was induced to commence a
waltz with a young and beautiful peasant girl, who seemed
to take so much enjoyment in the dance, that the whole
audience were raised from their seats, and standing en the
benches, drowning -the sounds of a powerful '. rcheatra with
their acclamations of praise and delight. In a moment,
however,'the joyous spootacle was changed iato one of inde-
scribable ho rcr ; a piercing shriek was heard above all the
combination of noises,'the stage was one rno rent in the utmost
confusion, and the next was clear of every performer except
the bear, who appoared with his muzzle unfastened, and bang-
ing round bia neck ; while he, after making a wide display of
his tremendous gullet, leaped into the orchestra, which, as may
be easily imagined, was in an instant as a acant as tho stage.
The flight of the audience was equally preoipitate, but the
consequences much more serious. Numbers were severely
crushed and bruised in the atruggles at the doors, and SQVCF-Al
were dreadfully injered by being thrown and trampled upon.
After a pause, a platooti of soldiers wr,s stilt into the pit with
fixed bayonets and loaded barrels, anti ordered to bring out
the cause of al the evil, detd or alive; b: t they found hint,
like other great stators, who have petformal their parts and
become exhaused by their exerti-ns, taking lit; repose on one
of tha benches, and incapable, or unwillittg, to make any re-
sistance. He wail M. 4140 muzzled aga.n, and led to his
den ; alld cm the ro:lowinb, day the piece was suppreacd by
order of the authorities.—Galignani's Messelum
