tional Representatives, begin to treat him with dis-
respect ; and as the hostility of CALATRA vA and
M ENDIZABAL is no longer concealed, the question of
his punishment begins to be mooted in the political
circles of the capital. ESPARTERO is a compound of
villainy and folly. Had he not been a villain, he would
never have had recourse to a military conspiracy, to effect
the overthrow of a Constitutional Government, in the
presence of the National Representatives ; tine had he
not been a fool, as well as a villain, he would not,
after proceeding so far, leave it in the power of those
Representatives to punish him for his crime before he
had tasted the fruits of his ambitious daring. It is
the property of base natures to conceive crimes without
being able to perpetrate them. We are not, therefore,
alarmed by the apprehension of the :Temps of Wednes-
day, which, on the authority of a current rumour, inti-
mates the probability of a real attack on Madrid by
the Christino Commander-in -Chief. EsPA RTERO IS
too timid to attempt any thing of the kind, knowing,
as he must, that there is, not a private in his ranks who
would not join the Cortes.
There is no domestic news •f any moment in the
Paris Journals, save the brief announcement that, at
a Council of Ministers held on Wednesday morning,
at which the Duke of ORLEANS presided, the expe-
dition against Constantine was finally resolved upon.
His Royal Highness had just then returned from the
reviews at Compiegne, where both himself and the
Duchess HELENA met with a most enthusiatic recep-
tion, from the assembled chivalry of France.
A report of the capture of Vittoria by the Carlist
chief TARRAQUAL, was current in Paris on Wed-
nesday. The fact, however, was doubted by all but
the partisans of the Pretender. Vittoria, though the
capital of one of the Basque provinces, is a place of
no strength, and stands in the centre of a bleak plain,
at a considerable distance from the sea. • The British
Legion there first experienced the hardships and the
Ministerial bad faith, with which its subsequent career
in Spain made it so fatally familiar.
The present King of Hanover has just claimed all the
diamonds of the Crown of England as family property,
taken to England by his ancestor, George I. The proof
of the property is said to result from the inventories drawn
up at the end of each reign, and which show that George I.
on his..accession found at London • only a few jewels of
small value ; and, on the other hand, from the inventories
of the family of Hanover, which show the quantity and
the value of the diamonds transmitted to George 1., and
from which their perfect identity may be ascertained. Ac-
cording to the family statutes these diamonds are trans-
ferred, as well as the crown, to the male heirs. This point
is not contested, and cannot cause any difficulty. The ques-
tion is entirely one of fact, and consists in deciding whether
the present diamonds of the English Crown are really those
brought to England by George I. It should seem that
nothing is more clearly established, and the Coinmissioners
appointed to inquire into the facts have found their task to
be provokingly easy.
The Diane di Roma at length confesses that the cholera
is at Rome. Some physicians had doubted of it, because
there is at Rome, besides the cholera, another fever called
Algida Perniciosa, but the number of cases and the cha-
racter of the disorder leave no doubt. Up to the 17th
there had been 132 cases of cholera and 53 deaths.

WATERLOO BRIDGE.—It is now a considerable
time since the tolls on a certain kind of carriages were di-
minished at this bridge ; and now the revenue arising from
that particular kind has increased, while the revenue from
other carriages which pay higher toll has diminished, as
cannot be denied at the bridge office. This result should
induce the proprietors to lower their tolls generally ; and
if they are so blind as to neglect it the public are injured
thereby, and Government should exert its influence to in-
duce them to benefit themselves and the people at the same
time ; especially as the proprietors cannot lose by the trial,
because they can return again to the present tolls imme-
diately their revenue appears to be diminishing. If a pas-
senger paid a halfpenny instead of a penny then four times
more people would pass, and the revenue would be doubled.
VICTORIA TII EA TR E.—Last evening the per-
formances at this theatre were Lucille, or the Story qf a
Heart ; Forty and Fifty; with the afterpiece of Paid and
ri•ginia. With such a variety the audieke must hate
been difficult to please, considering the manner in which
they were supported, if they did not find some scenes to
gratify and amuse them, We are bound to observe, from
the manner in which pieces have recently been represented
at the Victoria, that it is fully entitled to the patronage
which of late it bits received, The great attraction, how-
ever, of last night was the performance of Mrs. Hooper in
the character of Lucille. It was a beautiful and faultless
representation of woman in the most interesting and attrae.
tive situations—the supporter of a blind and helpless ad=
wirer ; his discarded lover when restored to health ; and,
notwithstanding all her sufferings, her heart still clinging
fondly to this image he presented when she was his only
support, and the attractions of the world had not won him
front her. In sustaining. such a character, there was iq
Mrs. Hooper's actin all the spill 1004 with the
moist (lel;vaim display of 44 In Lsringing the home feelings of
an aileetionate lenwle before the public. Such acting as
that of Mrs. Hooper is alone sufficient to secure the at•
tendance of crowded audiences ; and we feel quite assured
the more her talents become known, the more certain must
the victoria Theatre be of having its visitors increased.
