STRAND THEATRE.

The production of -the Beggar's Opera at this theatre
has been most successful, both as regards audience and
artistes. Everyone knows by heart the little opera, the
most successful hit of the century, which took the town
by storm on its appearance, and has since retained its
place -on the stage as the facile princys of English
opera, and to „0-O into a minute detailed criticism, there-
fore, would be superfluous. On the whole we think
that in our time Gay's masterpiece has seldom or ever
been placed before the public with better effec., than as
at present played, and as we last night witnessed it, at
the Strand Theatre. Miss Rebecca Isaacs is the fond
Polly Peacham, and sang the well-known music with
great sweetness and expression. She was deservedly
encored, in " Cease your funning." Miss 'lsabelle
Featherstone played the saucy and slightly shrewish.
Lucy. This promising young actress is, to use an old
phrase, a valuableacquisition to the London stage, and
we venture to say, from what we saw of her last night,
she is destined to make some considerable figure on it.
Her acting was full of spirit; and d what the French call
aplomb, without ever being boisterous or obtrusive, and
she sang the part in a manner which left nothing to be
desired. Her voice, which is full and clear, told in the
concerted' music with considerable effect. We shall
watch her progress with some interest. Our old favourite
Leffler played the dashing Captain with somewhat less
than his usual care and finish, bat his singing made 91
for other defects. "How happy could Ibe with either,"
given in his best style, was a genuine treat, and was re-
ceived by the audience with great delight. The other
characters were all well played, ' and the 'piece, as a
whole, was put on the stags in a manner most creditable
to all concerned-. We were glad to remark that the
house was well-filled ; and for the ability and liberality
evinced in the management of the theatre during the
present season certainly deserves public support,

FATAL ACClDENT.—Yesterday afternoon Mr. Thos.
Wilmot, a person well known in the parish of Lambeth,
was driving a cart heavily laden with earthen pipes
along the Lambeth-walk, and on reaching the end of
Regent-street the horse, which was a blind animal, from
some cause or other became restive. 'Wilmot rushed to
his head, and endeavoured to guide the horse in the di-
rection he wished ; but in this he was unsuccessful.
After trying every effort to restrain the furious animal,
Wilmot by some accident fell down, and the conse-
quence was that the wheel of the cart:tweed- over a-con-
siderable portion of his body and head, and crushed him
to death on the spot,

GERMANY.

The King of the Belgians and the Duke of Bra-
bant arrived at Cologne on the 2d with a numerous
suite. The railway station was handsomely dressed
out with flowers on the occasion. His Majesty was
to continue his journey the next day to Brunswick.
The French Minister at Frankfort has just ex-
changed the ratifications of the literary treaties
signed between the French Government and those
of the Duke de Nassau and the Prince de Reuss
(elder branch). A delay of three months is allowed
to the holders of the re-prints to sell of their
stocks.

The Queen of Bavaria has just named the Countess
Walewska, wife of the Ambassador of France at
London, honorary lady of her Order of Theresa.
The distinctive marks of the Order have been
presented to her by Baron Cetto, Minister of Ba-
varia at London.
A letter from Vienna, of the 29th ult., says :
"The Emperor this day held his first public recep-
tion since his recovery. It is said, by persons who
are considered to be well informed, that the Empe-
ror of Russia, the King of the Belgians, the Kings
of Prussia, Bavaria, Greece, and Naples, and the
Duke of Saxe-Coburg, are to arrive here in the
course of the month of May."
London, England, 1853-05-05

ITALY.

The Bund states from Fribourg that Colonel
Perrier appears disposed to give information, in
order to prevent proceedings against innocent per-
sons. The Ordre of Berne of the 28th ult. was
seized in all the inns, in consequence of its con-
taining a supplement in which M. Charles, a mem-
ber of the National Council, denies all participation
in the insurrection, and calls on the Federal Coun-
cil to protect the electoral right at Gruybres.
Arrests were still being made.
The Syndic of Turin has issued a notice an-
nouncing that the commission appointed by the
municipality to make up a list of those natives of
Turin who fell in 1848 and 1849 in the cause of
Italian independence, for the purpose of having
their names engraved on marble slabs, to be placed
in the vestibule of the Civic Palace, has terminated
its labours, and that the list may be examined by
the public for additions or corrections during the
whole of the present month.
A letter from Florence of the 28th ult., in the
Parlament° of Turin, states that the Austrian
troops in Tuscany are to be diminished by 2,000
men, in consequence of which one regiment is to
depart for Romagna. A few disturbances have oc-
curred here and there in Tuscany on the mcasion
of the drawing for the conscription, which always
takes place in a church ; but none of them of a
serious character. They are generally ascribed to
the antipathy of the Tuscans for military service.
The sth conference relating to the construction
of the Railway of Central Italy was opened at Mo-
dena on the 27th ult.

TURKEY.
The Pays newspaper has the following
.dispatch
from Constantinople of the 25th ult. :—" It is stated
in the Journal de Constantinople that the question
of the Holy Places has been brought to a termina-
tion. M. Delacour has conducted the negotiations
in a very conciliatory spirit. The negotiations 1,
spect!ng the Greek Patriarchate alone are still
pending. At all events, it is certain that all further
armaments will be suspended. The Exchange on
London has risen."

The French squadron was still in the Bay of Sa-
lamis. The lung Otho intended to inspect the
squadron on the 23d, and to witness its manoeuvres.
A Turkish steamer has arrived with orders for
the Ottoman fleet to return to Constantinaple. The
fleet will therefore leave the coast of Albania.
London, England, 1853-05-05

SPAIN.

The Madrid Gatette of the 29th ult. publishes a
royal decree, ordering that 10 per cent. of any ex-
cess of revenue, under particular circumstances, in
the duties, registration dues, d;c., of the finance
department over the highest returns of any year
from 1847 to 1852, shall be set aside for distribution
amongst the persons employed in that department.
There is nothing else of the slightest interest in the
Madrid journals of the 29th.
It is asserted that M. Bermudez de Castro has
tendered his resignation. Tha Queen, however,
declined accepting it.
On the 29th ult. the Three per Cents. were at
43k.

ON TRUE dr FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
In relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, or Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD

"Dr. Plckford 's known to English readers by his frequent practi-
:al contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the noa-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
rower to correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 18M.
"We promised In. a --former number that we. should recur to this
work, M orderto exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the imposters who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of ' Quiet Symathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who stiffer from th• com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many h mdreds would
be raved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
,vtnt upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
Ikely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF THE URETHRA, on Princi.
pies at once Simple, Safe, and Efficient, in even its most Inveterate
and apparently Intractable Forms.
BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
_

"In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has given
history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
any which Mr. Syme adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such are cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had res sted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
re noved in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and six. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. Syme, and yet the
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently successful."

EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION IN WHITEOHAPEL.—
Yesterday morning, at a few minutes before five o'clock,
a fire broke out in the premises of Messrs. J. Relfe and
Co., chicory merchants, &c., carrying on business in
George-yard, Whitechapel. The premises, which were
of considerable extent, were 'fitted up with costly steam
machinery, and at the time of the disaster contained a
stock in trade of many tons, nearly all of which was
consumed. The total loss, it is understood, •willamount
to nearly 3,0001. The origin of the fire is enveloped in
obscurity. When the premises were closed on the. pre-
vious night, the place seemed perfectly safe and free from
fire. The adjoining premises, Mr. Morgan's, have also
the windows burned out, and the roof damaged by fire.
Messrs. Relfe were insured in the Phrenix Fire Office, but
it could not be ascertained, whether Mr. Morgan was
insured.

[PRICE SD.

I may be found expedient to allow special exemptions
where a reversion is received, not in the nature of an
inheritance, but I the effect of a bona fide contract,
determinable on death. It is, we presume, not intended
to impose a tax on the purchase and sale of life annui-
ties, for a duty of 10 per cent, on the falling in of the
reversion would effectually put a stop to such transac-
-1 tions. There can be no doubt that all these questions
are under the careful consideration of the Government ;
and although the details. of the new arrangement may
be troublesome, the difficulty is not insurmountable.
Parliament will be asked to decide that the principle of
the existing legacy duty shall be maintained and ex-
tended to all realty and personalty, subject to a deduc-
tion in favour of rateable property. An estate in fee or
for life, in lands and tenements, will be valued as a life
estate, and any smaller interest at its actual value.
The duty on rateable property will be levied in eight
annual instalments, to be paid in full when there is an
ownership in fee, but, in the case of any smaller estate,
to cease if the possessor dies before the payments are
completed. The outline of the plan is obviously just ;
and it is reasonable to suppose that it will be equitably
filled up.

SPORTING NOTES.—No. CCCCXX.

CHESTER SPRING MEETING.—To-morrow's races com-
mence at two o'clock, I believe, with the Cheshire Stakes
of 15 sovs. each, 10 ft. &c., from the Castle Pole, once
round and in (about a mile and three furlongs). Out of
the sixteen acceptances, not more than six at the outside
will be found at the post ; and the race, I fancy, will
terminate in placing lANTHR first, and the King of
Trumps second.
The Wirral Stakes of 10 sovs. each, h. ft., with 30
added, for two and three years old, T.Y.C. (not quite
three quarters of a mile), will, like the preceding stake,
be contested by a very diminutive field. The winner, I
anticipate, will be found in Mr. Halford's ELIZA.
The Cestrian Stakes will only furnish a walk over for
SYLPHINE or Mocassin.
The Eaton Stakes of 10 sovs. each, h. ft., with 30
added, over the Grosvenor Course (1 mile, 1 furlong,
216 yards), ought to be carried off by Mr. Knowles
with his useful son of lon and Palmyra, TALFOURD ; but
the starting of the animal is very questionable, on ac-
count of the small value of the stake, and the better
things in store for him.
It seems that the settling on "The Cup" will be of a
harmless kind ; for, with the exception of a few "long
shots " got on in the winter, and some not particularly
heavy investments made in town and at Chester yester-
day and the day before, scarcely anything was done re-
specting the most appropriately-named winner, Gold-
finder. The race was a close affair at the last, Talfourd
only being disposed of by half a neck, and Trifle stalled
off but a length. With respect to at least a dozen of
the starters, the race must be taken as no criterion of
their merits, for, from the badness of the start --one of
the worst known at Chester since the increased size of
the fields for the Cup—they were out of the race before
they could be said to have been well in it. The six
leading horses at the finish were in front from end to
end, therefore with them it was undoubtedly a fair race.

ITALY.

The Bund states from Frib ourg that Colonel
Perrier appears disposed to give information, in
order to prevent proceedings aga inst innocent per-
sons. The Ordre of Berne of • the 28th ult. was
seized in all the inns, in consequence of its con-
taining a supplement in which E. Charles, a mem-
ber of the National Councifollenii es all participation
in the insurrection, and calls on the Federal Coun-
cil to protect the electoral ri3ht at Gruyeres.
Arrests were still being made.
The Syndic of Turin has ist; ned a notice an-
nouncing that. the commission appointed by the
municipality to make up a list o f those natives of
Turin who fell in 1848 and ICe. ) in the cause of
Italian independence, for the i?urpose of having
their names engraved on marble slabs, to be placed
in the vestibule of the Civic Palace, has terminated
its labours, and that the list ma! T be examined by
the public for additions or cam ,ctions during the
whole of the present month.
A letter from Florence of the 28th ult., in the
Parlament° of Turin, states ti hat the Austrian
troops in Tuscany are to be du ninished by 2,000
men, in consequence of which ( )ne regiment is to
_depart for Romagna. A few disturbances have oc-
curred here and there in Tuscan) r on the occasion
of the drawing for the conscript? ion, which always
takes place in a church; but r tone of them of a
serious character. They are geil .erally ascribed to
the antipathy of the Tuscans for military service:

The Pays newspaper has the following dispatch
from Constantinople of the 25th u It. :—" It is stated
in the Journal de Constantinople that the question
of the Holy Places has been brot tght to a termina-
tion. M. Delacour has conducte d the negotiations
in a very conciliatory spirit. Ti NB negotiations re-
specting the Greek Patriarchat e alone are still
pending. At all events, it is certa in that all further
armaments will be suspended. ! the Exchange on
London has risen."
The French squadron was still in the Bay of Sa-
lamis. The King Otho intend ed to inspect the
squadron on the 23d, and to with ess its manoeuvres.

THE STRIKE AT MANCHESTER.—The police have a 2•
cepted the 2s. per week advance offered by the Watch
Committee at Manchester, and wore formally re-engaged
and re-sworn on Thursday morning. The operatives of
Messrs. Poolley, 350 in number, have received a satis-

operatives still on strike in Manchester are those of Mr.
George Clarke, 80 ; Mr. S. Turnbull, 350 ; Messrs.
Penny and Wood, 200 ; Messrs. Wood and Co., 80
(throwing out of employ 180 others) ; and Mr. W. P.
Clarke, 25. About 62 are going to strike at Mr. Daniel
Clarke's. Messrs. Douglas, dyers, have given thoe'r men
(150) the advance required, but there are still about 500
dyers belonging to other firms on strike,
