ST. JAMES'S.

The performances at this theatre yesterday evening were
a new burletta, My Lover, Lucille, and The Daughter of
the Danube. The first was a new piece, never before per-
formed, in which the principal parts were sustained by Mr.
R. Roxby, and Miss Fortesque. The incidents in My
Lover, for it could not be said to hare a plot, are contained
in the hazardous experiment of a wife seeking to excite
her husband's jealousy, and being very much frightened in
consequence, and therefore resolving, like a sensible woman
never to make a second attempt of the same description.
Tho piece was amusing in every scene, and its close
marked with unanimous approbation. It is, we understand,
the composition of a lady of high rank. In the serious
burletta of Lucille, Mrs. Hooper appeared. We have
already recorded our opinion of the manner in which the
part is performed by this lady. Nothing can be more
simple, nothing more unaffected, nothing more true to
nature. In the altarpiece of The Daughter of the Danube
there was some excellent dancing by the Spanish company.

STRAND.

The Fairy Lake was again performed at this theatre
last night. There followed after this an entirely new ver-
sion of Nicholas Nichelby, by W. T. Moncrieff, Esq.
Boz's admirable work has here been dramatised, with con-
summate talent; the scenes have been selected with the
greatest judgment, and the story developes itself at once
with rapidity and perspicuity. Some parts were truly
admirable. We will notice particularly the parts entitled
severally " A room at Madame Mantalini's" where Mon-
sieur and Madame Mantalini, together with Mr. Ralph
Nickleby, and Miss Nickleby are introduced ; " The
best parlour in Do the boys Hall," where Ni-
cholas Nickleby, John Browjie (a Yorkshire cornfactor,)
Miss Matilda Price, and Miss Fanny Squeers go through
a scene that excites roars of laughter ;" the drawing-
room at Mr. Ralph Nickl;:by's," where Lord Frederick
Verisopht, Sir Mulberry Hawk, and the other lashionables
are introduced with irresistible drollness; " the coffee-
room" in which Nich.,las is attracted by the mention of
his sister's name amongst the strangers there, and the ad-
mirable scene which ensues upon it, &c., &c. The only
improvement that we could conceive would be the curtail-
, ment of certain scenes which were perhaps too long. The
acting was excellent, and such as most faithfully' to rea-
lise the characters of the novel. It was the first appear-
ance of Mr. thrton (Nicaolas Nickleby) at this theatre ;
he was eminently successful. It was also the first appear-
ance of Mr. W. J. Ray t, Ralph Nickleby.) He was the
very image and embodiment of the character he repre-
sented. The piece was received with enthusiasm by a
crowded audience.

VICTORIA.

A new version of Nicholas Nic.*by was produced at
this theatre Yesterday evening, under the title of Poor
Smike: or, :Do-the-Boys Hall. The sentimental part of
the business was evidently rather too much.) the milk-
and-water school for a bloodthirsty Coburg audience, but
the grotesque absurdities of some of the comic situations
put the gallery gentry in good humour, and the curtain fell
amidst vociferous applause. The performances afterwards
consisted of Nigh of the Woods, and a ballet entitled The
Three Tigers-.

is great virtue in an " if." If a very few of the Radi-

at five o'clock in the morning of the 13th instant. The
Cardinal was the maternal uncle of NAPOLEON, and was
born at Ajaccio, in Corsica, on the 3d of January, 1763,
so that he died in the 76th year of his age. When his
nephew was at the zenith of his power in France, he ap-
pointed him Archbishop of Lyons, and Pope Pius VII.,
in 1803, decorated him with the Purple. During the
first Revolution he was accused of many excesses dis-
graceful to the sacerdotal character, but since his re-
conciliation with the Church his life and conversation
were most exemplary. He died immensely rich, leav-
ing behind him, besides his great wealth, the finest col-
lection of pictures in Europe.
The trial of the prisoners accused of abetting the
late insurrectionary movement in Paris by the Chamber of
Peers is condemned by all the Opposition Journals.
The report of the prisoners having sums of money in
their pockets, as if they were paid for disturbing the
public peace is likewise contradicted.
The Moniteur states that fears are entertained of a
renewal of the war in Africa.

terday at an early hour the town and avenues to Green-
wich displayed all the activity usual on Whit-Monday.
The trains upon the Railway were in constant motion, going
from London and returning every five minutes. The de-
liveries of passengers at the terminus amounted in a short
time to thousands. In addition to the influx by the Railway
and the carriages, the steamers from Hungerford, Queen-
hithe, and Loudon-bridge, brought in their enormous car-
goes of bipeds destined to swell the holiday gathering. The
City of Canterbury landed on the pier at Greenwich, about
half-past three o'clock, upwards of 2,000 men, women,
and children. The lading made a remarkable appearance.
The tops of the paddle-boxes, and every part of the upper
works, formed one mass of human beings. The Green-
wich, the Pearl, and other steamers also carried as many
as they could possibly stow. Those who expected fine
weather were not disappointed. It was warm, and the
beautiful verdure of the Park invited the holiday lads and
lasses to climb the green hills—racing down the favourite
declivity kept the oung and old upon the broad grin. A
splendid new tavern was thrown open near the new pier.
The Unicorn Tavern, the Admiral Hardy, the Prince of
Orange, the Greyhound, and most of the houses were soon
filled by merry troops of holiday folks. The fair was a
sad scene of pressure and confusion.

The King of the French has recently sent a pre-
sent to the Marquis of Bristol (between whom and his
Majesty a long standing friendship has existed), consist-
ing of a variety of acorns, the produce of the finest oaks in
France. They have been planted with the greatest care
on his Lordship's estate, Ickworth•park, Suffolk.

SURREY.

Last night this place of amusement was crowded to suf-
focation by eager holiday makers. There was a double
attraction. The first was a revival of 13Alfe's Maid of
Artois, with Miss Romer, Templeton, and Balfe himself
as vocalists. The opera, considering what are the re-
sources of the theatre, was most creditably produced. The
second, acrd, we suspect, the greatest attraction, was the
new meld-dramatic piece, cast in the cu,toinary mould of
over-the.water theatres, entitled Alice Grey, the Suspected
One; or, The Moral Brand. To attempt to unravel the
plots of such productions requires the practised ingenuity
of a regular frequenter of west! theatres. An occasional
visiter is, indeed, at a loss. A humourous underplot, well
acted by W. Smith, Ross, and Miss Martin, relieved the
more serious portions of the drama ; and we need scarcely
say the whole was received with rapturous satisfaction by
the not fastidious auditory.

port from the people is for them to sink beneath
Sir ROBERT PEEL, whom they have just mortified
past all hope of peace. Between honestly and sin-
cerely placing themselves at the head of the Liberal
party, forming of the people " a wall of strength
around their much loved Queen," and sinking into
utter contempt and political insignificance, we see
no alternative ; and we cannot for one moment
doubt which line their pride, their honour,
and their respect for her MAJESTY will com-
mand them to take. Mr. Alderman Hum-

CITY OF LONDON THEATRE.

The entertainments last night at the above theatre com-
menced with a new historical, romlntie drama, called The
Gipsy Queen, or The King and the Cadgers. We shall
not attempt to " desccibc the indescribable," nor to un-
ravel the intricacies of its plot, but shall merely say that
the piece was as full of ludicrous incidents and scenes, and
of the drollery incident to the representations of low life,
as the warmest admirers of that species of description
could desire. It was succeeded by a new burletta, en-
titled the White Cross Knight. It partook much of the
prevailing character of the foregoing piece, but being
more decidedly farcical, elicited more laughter. The
night's amusements were concluded by an entirely new
comic pantomime, written by Mr. Nelson Lee, entitled
The Fairy of the Lake, or Harlequin and the Silver
Arrow. The house, if not exactly a bumper, was rea-
sonably filled.

LONDON :
TUESDAY, MAY 21, 123 t

The enthusiasm which prevails throughout the
country is very great. We are, in fact, prevented
making use of the proofs of it by their over-
whelming nature. The one theme which occupies
the Journals of England, Ireland, and Scotland is
her MAJESTY'S firmness. Universally almost is
she Praised and admired, and almost universally is
the Tory demand to dismiss her Household, and
submit to be the slave of that insolent faction, indig-
nantly reprobated. We regret that we cannot copy
the multiplied evidence which the Provincial Journals
contain of the public feeling, being in preference
obliged to fill our columns with the evidence, by
inserting reports of proceedings in the metropolis
of the state of public feeling here. We cannot
overlook the meetings of the working classes, who
are beginning to play a most important part in our
political drama, and we record their sayings and
doings at Kennington yesterday. We give also
a full report of the meeting held in the Bo-
rough yesterday, at which a loyal address to
her Majesty was adopted by a very great ma-
jority, in spite of the efforts made to divert
the meeting from its purpose. Whatever may
be the opinions of persons as to the Ministers,
there is but one sentiment regarding her MAJESTY,
whose engaging virtues—whose attachment to her
friends—and whose love of sincerity and truth, are
equally appreciated by the men with fustian jackets
and by those with silken waistcoat and broad cloth
coats.

We wish we could say something similar of
the Ministers, but it would be idle to deny that
amongst all classes, and amongst their own
friends, words of reproach and mistrust are frequently
heard ; and though there is now much returning
hope, the least backward movement on their
part would be fatal to their popularity, and
their power. We, however, cannot believe that
they will not go strenuously forward. In their
hands her MAJESTY has placed her honour and
her safety. Between them and the Tories her
MAJESTY has no choice, and for them not now
to take measures to carry the constituencies with
them, would be to sacrifice her MAJESTY to her
enemies. Should Lord MELBOURNE now fail,
the Tories must return to office, all their de-
mands must be conceded, and her MAJESTY
will be ten times worse off than if she had
never resisted the arrogant demands of Sir RO-
BERT PEEL. Every motive of honour and
pride must operate to make the Ministers exert
themselves in the Liberal cause. Not to gain sup-

INVALID INSTITUTION.
The DENHAM•PARK Establishment of the Institu-
tion is open for the reception of persons of both sexes in the
upper walks of life suffering under mental disturbance or ner-
vous complaints, but who are still capable of appreciating the
blessings of social intercourse.
The invalids reside with the resident Medical Officer and
Isis lady as one united family. The visits of the usual Me-
dical Attendants and Friends are admitted at all times with-
out previous notice. The attendants are educated persons ; and
recreation and amusement provided on the most liberal scale.
Denham-park is a Proprietory Establishment, and managed
by a Committee of Gentlemen, and under the general surveil-
lance of its Vice-Patrons, Noblemen and Gentlemen, who
have no interest in the Institution tout what is prompted by
a desire to benefit mankind.
The Resident Medical Officer is a member of the College
e f Physicians, and has the sole direction of the medical treat-
ment of the invalids, and has no interest whatever in the
emoluments of the Establishment.
Apply for terms and prospectuses to the Secretary, James
Taylor, Esq., addressed, Denham-park, near Uxbridge, Bucks.

RICHARD WRIGHT (Late of the Bell,

the public in general that he has entered upon the above eligi-
ble and convenient Establishment, which from the late altera-
tions and improvements will be found to merit the patronage of
persons visiting Worcester, it being the study of the Proprietor
to render the most complete domestic comfort. The centricity
of the situation, and having Coaches to and from all parts of
England and Wales daily, in connection with the London and
Birmingham Railroads, this Establishment will be found most
advantageous for Travelling, either by private or public convey-
ance.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.—A boy, named Alphonse,
Ramble, about 14 years of age, was brought before Mr.
Alderman Venables, by Thomas Gibbons, who pom-
pously described himself as " the inspector to the Ani-
mals' Friend Society," charged with having beaten some
sheep over the legs.
I he boy altogether denied the charge.
Mr. Alderman VENAILES discharged the prisoner,
after cautioning him as to his future conduct. He was
surprised that more cases of real cruelty were not brought
forward, and thought that if he had the honour of hold-
ing the exalted situation of the complainant, he should
be at no loss to find them.

Charles Specknell was charged by Henry Thomas,
Secretary to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals.

Mr. Thomas stated that at about ten on Saturday
morning he observed the prisoner, and two other men,
in charge of three cows, in King-street, Smithfield.
The prisoner struck one of the cows a violent blow
over the back, with a broomstick, in consequence of
which the animal ran on the pavement. He afterwards
struck the cow over the head, and thereby split the
stick.

The prisoner said she was rather wild, and he
struck her over the nose to prevent her from running
into a shop. He denied striking her over the hock.
Mr. Ald, VENABLES had no doubt that the prisoner
had beaten the cow in a cruel manner, and therefore
fined him 10s.

FELONY.—Henry Williams was charged with felony.
Mr. Emberson, jeweller, of 31, Fore-street, said that
about half-past eight on Friday night he saw the prisoner
looking through his window, and another boy with his
hand through one of the panes, which had been cut out.
On observing him the lad ran away. He followed the
prisoner and apprehended him, but the other lad
escaped. Four ear-rings with coral drops, and five
wedding rings, bad been taken away, the value of which
was 4/. 4s. They had not been found.
The prisoner was committed for trial.

RURAL FETE IN THE HIGHLANDS.--.—The families
of the Duke of Bedford and Edward Ellice, Esq., M.P.,
have been very gay this season at their summer re,idence
in Badenoch. A number of noblemen and gentlemen
have visited them—one party succeeding another—and
;ill delighted with the romantic scenery of the glen.
Amongst these have been the Speaker of the House
of Commons, Mr. Charles Buller, M.P., the Marquis
and Marchioness of Abercorn, Edwin Landseer, Esq.,
Lords Cosmo, Edward, and Alexander Russell, Ladies
Georgiana and Rachel Russell, Edward Ellice, jun.,
Esq., and lady, General and Mrs. Balfour and the Miss
Ballours, the Hon. J. Dundas, the Hon. F. Cavendish,
Capt. Seymour, W. Cook, Esq., J. Purvis, Esq., &c.
ale day lately, the party at Doune (Duke of Be,tlford's)
and at Invereshie-house (Mr. Eiic,:s) made up a puts°
of fifty guineas, to be giwn away in prizes among suer of
the young men of the district as should distinguish them-
selves at athletic sports. The exhibition " came off,"
as the sporting phrase is, at Mr. Ellice's, trbitht r the
Duke and Duchess of Bedford and their friends re-
; aired. An immense concourse of persons was present,
as the news soon spread over the hills, and the people
poured forth to witness the splendid array of Sassenach
Lords and Ladies, and to partake in the amusements of
the day. A hogshead of whiskey was provided by the
generous entertainers, and abundance of bread, beef,
and mutton. Tents were erected in the glen ; and,
as the ladies arrived, the pipers announced the event
in the liveliest strains of the pibroch. The sports com-
menced with a foot race up a steep mountain, one of the
highest of the Grampians. Seven Highlanders started,
the distance back and forward being better than four
miles. The winner of the first prize, which was 31. ,came
in to the :pole in the short. time of '"). minutes 33 se-
conds ; the successful competitors for the second and
third prizes arrived very soon afterwards, keeping side by
side the whole way until within a few seconds of their
arrival at the starting place. The Marquis of Aber-
corn and some of the party then had some excellent
races on their own horses ; and a variety of sports fol-
lowed among the people, such as throwing the hammer,
putting the stone, leaping, &e. In the evening there
was a splendid display of fireworks, and the whole con-
cluded with a supper and ball. The arrival of the
Duchess of Bedford and party at the ball was announced
by a novel spectacle—a great number of sky rockets
being let off, which met high in the air, and united in
the form of a large Gothic arch. The Marquis of
Abercorn and Lord A. Russell appeared in full High-
land costume. The dancing was kept up with great
spirit till near daylight. During the night several shots
were fired from a field-piece on the lawn, which, echo-
ing amongst the stupendous mountains that encircle the
glen, produced a striking and grand effect. Altogether,
the day was a memorable one in the annals of Glen-
Feshie.— Inverness Courier.

EV N ING EDITION.

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.

The first Olympic night commenced on Saturday,
with the four following pieces, Sons end Syslenis,
Faint Heart never Won fair Lady, Patter v. Clatter,
and the Loan of a Loren These popular pieces were
acted with very few and trifling exceptions, by the same
performers at the Olympic, and we observed :to ma-
terial difference in the effect of the performances, ex
cept that the stage being larger, and more distant the
didlogue was not so well heard as might be wished,
in some parts of the house.
Madame Vestris acted with her usual spirit and
effect as Duchess of Torrenuova, and Gertrude.
She looks as young as ever. The " mounting" of
the pieces, and the stage appointments were intended
to imitate the style of the Olympic, and they did so,
successfully. The pieces went off with spirit, and the
house was well attended.
Madame Vestris has obtained great credit, and very
deservedly, for consulting the public feeling by re-
ducing the admission to the lower gallery to one
shilling. She will be no loser by the change.

INSOLVENTS' COURT.

IN THE MATTER OF MRS. LIVINGSTONE.
This was an application to charge the assignees of
the insolvent 20 per cent. on the monies received under
the insolvency, and to cause them to file an accoun,.
The insolvent was discharged some years back, when
201. a year was set aside for the creditors. The creditors
had, however, received nothing of this apportionment,
but one of the assignees bad received the money ; this
assignee was a Middlesex magistrate. The other assignee
had received' no part of the money in question.
The COURT enlarged the rule in order to attach the
assignee who had received the money, and to com-
mit him.

THE AMENDED ACT.
The Court on Friday directed that Commissions should
be issued to certain attorneys in the country to take
recognizances in bail, which will greatly relieve persons
confined for debt in country prisons, and secure their
liberation at as early a period as though they were within
the metropolitan district.

HATTON-GARDEN.

POT-STEALING EXTRAORDINARY. Oa Saturday
Charles Sheppard was charged with stealing twelve
quart pots, the property of Mr Hanbrook, of the Duke
of Brunswick, White Conduit-fields.
• The prosecutor stated that within a month he had
lost upwards of 12/. worth of pots. On Friday evening
the prisoner and two other fellows entered his house,
and, suspecting them, he kept watch, and saw them
secrete twelve peal. He gave inform,ition to a police-
man ; and as he was about to apprehend the gang they
got "scent," and two of them made their escape. Th e
bulk of the property was, however, found on the
prisoner.
Mr. GREENWOOD said it was astonishing to him how
licensed victuders bore up against the losses by pot-
stealing ; and he was convinced from experience that
Lheir profits scarcely overbalanced the losses. Several
publicans, to his own knowledge, had been ruined by
that description of depredation, and he did hope that
the prisoner would be transported as an example.
The prisoner was committed.

" A PROCLAMATION.

" Whereas I have received information that a party of
armed persons, to the number of 200 or more, have invaded
a portion of this province under the jurisdiction of her Ma-
jesty's Government, from the neighbouring state of Maine,
for the professed object of exercising authority, and driv-
ing off persons stated to be cutting timber thereon; and
that divers other persons have, without any legal authority,
taken up arms with the intention of resisting such inva-
sion and outrage, and have broken open certain stores in
Woodstock, in which arms and ammunition belonging to
her Majesty, were deposited, and have taken the same away
for that purpose—l do hereby charge and command all per-
sons concerned in such illegal acts forthwith to return the
arms and ammunition so illegally taker, to their place of
deposit, as the Government of the Province will take care
to adopt all necessary measures for resisting any hostile in-
vasion or outrage that may be attempted upon any part of
her Majesty's territories or subjects.
" And I do hereby charge and command all magistrates,
sheriffs, and other officers, to be vigilant, aiding and assist-
ing in the apprehension of all persons so offending, and to
bring them to justice. And in order to aid and assist the
civil power in that respect, if necessary, I have ordered
a sufficient military force to proceed forthwith to the
place where these outrages are represented to have been
committed, as well to repel foreign invasion, as to pre-
vent the illegal assumption of arms by her Majesty's sub-
jects in this province.
" And further, in order to be prepared, if necessary, to
call in the aid of the constitutional militia force of the
country, I do hereby charge and command the officers
commanding the first and second battalions of the militia
of the county of Carleton, forthwith to proceed as the law
directs to the drafting of a body of men, to consist of one-
fourth of the strength of each of these battalions, to be in
readiness for actual service, should occasion require.

.. By his Excellency's command,
" WILLIAM F. ODELL.

" God save the Queen."

On this affair we copy the following particulars from the
New York paper of the 25th ult.:—
" The Governor of Maine has ordered 1,000 of the
Penobscot militia to march with all speed to the scene of
the troubles, in aid of the force under command of the new
land agent. These troops were to march on Wednesday
morning from Bangor.
" On the other hand, Sir John Harvey is said also to
have ordered out a thousand of his militia, with directions
to march at once into the disputed territory. Also it is
said that regular troops have been ordered from Frederic-
ton, St. John, and Halifax ; that a boom is to be placed at
the mouth of the Aroostook, to catch the timber as it comes
down, with a sufficient force to protect it.
