PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

On Saturday evening a melodrama, thoroughly French
in its construction, entitled " The Golden Daggers," was
performed here with perfect success. The authors or
adapters of the piece in question are Mr. Charles Fechter
and Mr. E. Yates, and it must be admitted that they have
succeeded in " creating" a piece that will prove highly
attractive. The drama, as our neighbours on the other
side of the Channel designate such productions, consists
rather in a series of highly wrought tableaux than a con-
nected story—the principal part being one George Lester,
who, during his travels in California has been within an
ace of being treacherously murdered by the chief of a band
of robbers—called the Golden Daggers—whom we now
find located in London under the title of Sir Percival
Cunyngham, and in the enjoyment of immense wealth.
At the opening of the play, George Lester re-
lates his adventures to the assembled company,
amongst whom is Sir Percival Lester, works strongly upon.
the conscience of the supposed baronet, and at last Conyng-
ham is informed that the man whom he so nearly mur-
dered is in England, with the sole object of taking dreadful
vengeance for his wrongs. Sr Percival seeks the aid of
some London desperados to foil Lester's intentions, and
this circumstance brings us into the company of the rogues
of London. At a masked ball Lester discovers that his
enemy is bent upon marrying a certain lady, who
has confessed her preference for him, and he therefore chal-
lenges Sir Percival to a duel to the death, which takes place,
and, of course, the villain is slain, and Lester, we suppose,
marries the lady whom he has saved from the meshes of so
bad a man. There is a very good underplot, in which Mr.
Widdicombe has a capital part.
_ _ _

Mr. Fechter sustained the part of George Lester with
great effect. It is a character that brings out all his talents,
and one that must become entirely his own. Mr. George
Jordan's Sir Percival is the best thing he has done. The
other parts were all excellently supported.
_ _

The piece has been put upon the stage with the greatest
taste and minuteness, and it is impossible to speak in too
high terms of praise of the beauty cf the scene-painting.
At the fall of the curtain the applause was enthusiastic,.
and the whole of the performers received the usual honours,.
The house was crowded in every part.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's' Ointment
Remarkable Recovery.—Mothers and nurses should read
the testimonials to the efficacy of Holloway's remedies in
subduing scarlatina, diphtheria, bronchitis, and those in-
flammatory complaints which are now committing such.
havoc both amongst children and adults. A wife writes
—" I had only rubbed your Ointment on the throat two
days, in a case of bronchitis, when my husband began to
improve in a most remarkable manner, and in less than a
week was quite well. Such testimony should be known to
persons oliable to throat affections, and all having tho •
charge of children. The worst ulcers, sores, and wounds
become clean and soon heal under the application of Hol-
loway's Ointment, which invariably prevents the spread of
inflammation and unhealthy action.

THAMES.

PERSONATING A POLICE CoNsrmnE.--Williara Davis,
a seafaring man, was brought before Mr. Woolrych,
charged with being drunk and disorderly, with represent-
ing himself to be a police constable, and with endeavouring
to obtain money under false pretences.
The complainant, Mr. John Salter, the landlord of the
Red Lion public-house, in Pennington-street, Ratcliffe-
highway, stated that the prisoner came into his house yes-
terday afternoon, at a quarter before 2 o'clock, and said he
was a police constable, and had been directed to watch the
house and report any misconduct to his superintendent. The
prisoner, who was intoxicated, and mistook the time, said it
was 15 minutes to one o'clock,and that he the (complainant)
was infringing the law, and that he should inform against
him unless he paid a sovereign. Ho refused to give the
prisoner a sovereign, and demanded his warrant card. The
prisoner was unable to produce any card or emblem of
authority, but continued to demand a sovereign for opening
his house before one o'clock. He directed the prisoner to
leave the house, which he refused to do, and remained there
some time making a good deal of noise, and occasionally
demanding a sovereign. He then called a police constable,
and gave the prisoner into custody.
Inspector Dendy, of the H division, said the prisoner
was not now a member of the Metropolitan Police Force
but was some time ago in the Thames division, and dis-
missed for misconduct.
Mr. Woolrych remanded the prisoner until Wednesday.

CAPTAIN SEMMES, LATE OF THE SUMTER.---
Among the passengers by the Mooltan, which arrived at
Southampton on Thursday, with the Australian mail, was
Captain Semmes, the commander of the Confederate man-
of-war Sumter, whose daring achievements in the Caribean
sea have attracted such attention. After capturing and de-
stroying almost a fleet of merchant shipping among the
West India islands and in the South Atlantic, the Sumter
escaped to Europe, and there immediately commenced de-
stroying Federal shipping in the British Channel and in
the Bay of Biscay. Captain Semmes is a small, thin, but 0
.
wiry man, with a weather-beaten countenance, c
a most
determined-looking character. Although not by any means
an old man, his moustache and beard are quite white. He
was very anxious to know whether the Confederate army
had fought any great battle after retiring from Manassas
and what progress the Federals had made at the mouth of
the Mississippi. Amongst his baggage was an immense
trunk, filled, it was rumoured, with booty selected from cap-
tured ships. Captain Semmes is related to Mr. Jeff. Davis,
the Confederate President. The other officers of the Sumter
were also on board the Mooltan. They appeared very young.
The Sumter has been sold at Gibraltar.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The few samples of wheat en sale in the country markets
held on Saturday were taken off steadily, and, in some in-
stances, previous rates were rather exceeded. The barley
trade was tolerably firm, at full prices. All other kinds of

produce, including flour, were moderately active.
Throughout the continent the grain trade continues in a
sluggish state. Prices, however, are supported. The ship-
ments of breadstuffs from America have rather increased
of late.

Very limited supplies of English grain were received up
to our market last week. The imports from abroad were
4,451 quarters of wheat, 5,142 barley, 9,068 oats, 1,500 beans,
661 tares, 1,731 linseed, 95 sacks, and 5,252 barrels of flour
Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of Eng-
lish wheat were very small, both from Essex and Kent.
The condition of the samples was tolerably good. For both
red and white qualities there was a steady demand, and
last Monday's quotations were well supported. At the
close of business a fair clearance had been effected.
We were fairly supplied with foreign wheat. In most
descriptions a fair average business has been transacted at
the full prices of this day se'nnight.

Floating cargoes of grain were in fair demand, and the
currencies ruled firm.

Malting barley, the supply of which was very moderate,
was in request, at extreme rates. Grinding and distilling
sorts, however, continued dull, yet prices remained about
stationary.

Malt of good and fine quality was firm, at full quotations;
but inferior parcels were somewhat neglected, though with-
out change in value.

Oats were in fair supply and moderate request, at quite
previous rates for all good and fine qualities.
Beans were held at fully last Monday's prices ; but the
inquiry for them was by no means active, notwithstanding
that the supply on sale was small.

Peas moved off steadily, and the quotations were well
maintained.

Most kinds of flour changed hands to a fair extent, al
full currencies.

POLICE---THIS DAY.

BOW-STREET.
CARRIAGE ROBBERY.—William Daley, John Brown,
Philip Sidney, Ann Martin, and Louise Martin, were placed
at the bar, on remand, charged with being concerned in
stealing a leather bag from a carriage, containing property
to the amount of £250, the greater part of which consisted
of jewellery, the property of Mrs. East, of 7, Curzon-street,
Mair Fair.

The facts of this case were fully reported in The Sun cs
Monday last.
The prisoners were fully committed for trial.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CAUTION TO LADIES SHOPPING—Am OLD ACQUAINT-
ANCE.—An artful looking fellow, named William Hegan,
was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt as follows :-
304 A, Harris, said—About five o'clock on Saturday
afternoon, I was in Regent•street, and saw the prisoner
standing behind two ladies who were looking in a shop
window. Observing that the prisoner had his hand through
a hole in his pocket, inserted in one of the ladies' pockets,
and as there was a large crowd coming up the street follow-
ing a rifle corps' band, I at once seized the prisoner's hand
while it was in the lady's pocket, which had the effect of
making the lady turn round, I asked her whether she had
lost anything, and she said her purse was quite safe, and as
that was the case she would not charge the prisoner. I
then took him to the station, where he told the inspector
that he was "an old acquaintance of the lady, and that he
was in the habit of carrying things which she could not
carry herself." (Laughter.) On being told that he had
better send to her he said "he had lost his diary—(laugh-
ter)—and did not know where she lived."
Prisoner—Why I was tipsy at the time.
Mr. Tyrwhitt (the prisoner having been at the court
before) committed him for three months with hard labour.

THE SUICIDE IN BLACKHEATH
TUNNEL.

On Saturday afternoon last Mr. C. J. Carttar,
coroner for West Kent, held an inquiry at the Free-
masons' Tavern, Woolwich, into the circumstances
attending the death of Mr. Henry Goodwin Miss-
ing, a draper, for many years residing at Tranquil-
vale, Blackheath, who committed suicide on Wed-
nesday last by shooting himself, in a third class
carriage, while passing through the Blackheath
tunnel! on the North Kent Railway.
The following witnesses were examined :
Mr. F. Wade, of 208, Old-street, St. Luke's, de-
posed—On the previous Wednesday he was a pas-
senger in the same carriage with the deceased, by
the down train, which left London-bridge at noon.
When the train arrived about half way through the
Blackheath tunnel witness heard a loud report, but
as it was quite lark, he had no idea of what had
happened until the train emerged from the tunnel,
when himself and the other passengers were horri.
fled to find the deceased reclining on the seat with
a frightful wound in his head, end holding a small
pistol in his right hand. On arriving at Woolwich
Dockyard station the deceased, who was then living,
was removed and attended by several surgeons, but
he expired about three o'clock.
This evidence having been corroborated by other
passengers who were in the same carriage,
Mr. Johnson Brook, of Blackheath, deposed—On
the morning of Wednesday last he accompanied the
deceased, with whom he was on intimate terms,
from Blackheath to London by railway. They con-
versed on business affairs, and the deceased ap-
peared to be much depressed in spirits respecting

THE ARMY.

Tho St. Lawrence, 1,500 tons, Capt. Toynbee,
arrived at the Customhouse-quay, Gravesend, on
Saturday, from Calcutta and the Cape of Good Hope.
She brings home detachments of troops belonging
to the 2d Queen's Royals, 13th Prince Albert's
Light Infantry, and the 59th Regiment, from the
Cape, together with a number of officers, passengers
from Calcutta, among whom are Col. Hobday, 3d
Bengal Light Cavalry; Col. Campbell, Col, Barr,
Major Trotter, 43d Bengal Light Infantry; Major
Green, Bengal Native Infantry; Major Bird, Sur-
geon-Major Williamson, Dr. Eyre, the Rev. Mr.
-Kennedy and the Rev. Mr. Irwin, chaplains. The
troops were landed on Saturday afternoon and for-
warded to Chatham garrison, proceeding direct to
the invalid depot. One death occurred on board
during the passage.

The East India troopship Renown, 1,450 tons,
Capt. E. Hight, belonging to Messrs. Green, arrived
in the Thames from Calcutta, on Scanr day, with
uPwards of 200 cavalry and infantry troops on board,
from most of the regiments serving in the Bengal
"'residency. Besides the troops she brought home a
-valuable cargo, chiefly of indigo, and numerous
officers and passengers, among whom are Capt.
Roberts, Assistant Deputy-Adjutant-General, Capt.
Evans, and Lieut. Ferris. The Renown embarked
her troops at Calcutta on the 31st Dec. last, and left
the Hooghleyo-
u lan. 1, touching only at St. Helena.
The passage to the Thames, including detentions,
occupied 107 days.

PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

On Saturday evening a melodrama, thoroughly French
in its construction, entitled " The Golden Daggers," was
performed here with perfect success. The authors or
adapters of the piece in question are Mr. Charles Pechter
and Mr. E. Yates, and it must be admitted that they have
succeeded in " creating" a piece that will prove hitrhly
attractive. The (17 ama, as our neighbours on the other
side of the Channel designate such productions, consists
rather in a series of highly wrought tableaux than a con-
nected story—the principal part being one George Lester,
who, during his travels in California has been within an
ace of being treacherously murdered by the chief of a band
of robbers —called the Golden Daggers—whom we now
find located in London under the title of Sir Percival
Cunyngham, and in the enjoyment of immense wealth.
At the opening of the play, George Lester re-
lates his adventures to the assembled company,
amongst whom is Sir Percival Lester, works strongly upon
the conscience of the supposed baronet, and at last Conyng-
ham is informed that the man whom he so nearly mur-
dered is in England, with the sole object of taking dreadful
vengeance for his wrongs. S.r Percival seeks the aid of
some London desperados to foil Lester's intentions, and
this circumstance brings us into the company of the rogues
of London. At a masked ball Lester discovers that his
enemy is bent upon marrying a certain lady, who
has confessed her preference far him, and he therefore chal-
lenges Sir Percival to a duel to the death, which takes place,
and, of course, the villain is slain, and Lester, we suppose,
marries the lady whom he has saved from the meshes of so
bad a man. There is a very good underplot, in which Mr.
Widdicombe has a capital part.
Mr. Pechter sustained the part of George Lester with
great effect. It is a character that brings out all his talents,
and one that must become entirely his own. Mr. George
Jordan's Sir Percival is the best thing he has done. The
other parts were all excellently supported.
The piece has been put upon the stage with the greatest
taste and minuteness, and it is impossible to speak in too
high terms of praise of the beauty cf the scene-painting.
At the fall of the curtain the applause was enthusiastic,
and the whole of the performers received the usual honours.
The house was crowded in every part.
