TO THE EDITOR OF TRE SUN. .:
SlR,—llaving been much satisfied with the, course
which you adopted in vindicating the cause; of M. de
Lamartine, as also the cause of pure democracy. g.n
rally, during the French Revolution last- year, I beeaugo
a constant reader of your paper; but I nest say..that
during the last few weeks I have been much annoyed,
and, indeed, astonished, at the way in which you
have
taken up the Roman and Tuscany question. noised-
ing article in your paper of yesterday is perfectly out-
rageous on this subject, vindicating a system of 'foreieu
intervention to force the Romans and the people of ZlP-
cany to form a monarchical form of Government, white
they prefer a Republic. Why do you not allow thenuther
same latitude of acting for themselves as you advocator
for the French? lam sure they are, going as quiettr
and systematically to work. If they prefer a Repubret,
why not let them have it? I repeat that lam surprised*
your reactionary and aristocratic course during the le*
tew weeks on this point. I trust you will see the. sity of retracing your steps, and adopt the same •
with the Romans which you adopted with the: Ftee It is no argument to say that the rope was a
man; or that the Grand Duke of Tuscany was
man; it is the principle, and not the men, whichiwieoehe..,
to look at. I hope to see the Republic as

think the Romans are in a very fair way, with then.
eeption of the murder of Rossi (which is to be re-
-1 gretted), they have been extremely moderate '
the murder of Rossi was an individual act, and ought not
to be taxed upon the whole country or any portion of
it, at all events not the parties who have been in
power. Rave they been guilty of any of the wholesale
butcheries and fiendish actions of the Austrian Govern-
ment? No. And yet these atrocities are palliated, and
the poor Romans, because they are a handful compare.
Lively speaking, are to be trodden down, shame! If you
do not assist them in their struggle for liberty let them
alone. As to restoring the Pope it is out of the question,
his time is up; the 1,260 years which heaven was to
allow him to reign over the consciences of mankind is
completed—health and fraternity.
A CONSTANT REA.DErt.
Liverpool, Feb. 21, 1849.

LYCEUM THEATRE.
Shave You Directly is the title of a new farce which
was produced here last evening, and the Shaver is a lady,
one Barbara Sharp (Miss Kathleen Fitzwilliare), who
has inherited the business of a village barber front her
father, and who shaves and captivates all the beard
wearers in the district. Her most persevering suitor is
the village schoolmaster, Blott (Mr. Har!ey), who makes
love after a most quaint and amusing fashion of his
own; but the favoured lover is Cornet Walter Brown, of
the Duke of Marlborough's Guards (Mr. Charles
Mathews), who, jilted by a former mistress,
and breathing revenge against the former mis-
tress's husband, comes to the village to indulge
in his melancholy, and then almost unwittingly
falls in love with the pretty Barbara, and kisses and
toys with her while lamenting the inconstancy of his lost
Amelia. The slid Amelia (Miss IL Gilbert), who is •
triend of Barbara, arrives at the village with her hue.
band Quillett, a lawyer (Mr. It Boxby), and on dis-
covering that Walter is there, Quillett, afraid of a duel,
endeavours to bolt, whilst Amelia disguises herself le
male attire in order to get back certain letters which
Walter has in his possession. Her husband returns, and
Barbara immediately commences shaving the disguised
Amelia. Walter is announced, and to escape his
pursuit Quillett disguises himself as Barbara's
assistant, and commences shaving the schoolmaster.
Walter recognizes Amelia, and procures a promise of a
meeting as the price of his silence, and Barbara, under
pretence of dressing his hair for this meeting, crops it
as shot t as a charity boy's, and consequently exposes
him to the ridicule of Amelia. The piece ends of sours,
with the marriage of Barbara and Walter, who at
length becomes aware of the secret of his heart. Them
are two very pretty songs introduced into.theltarce; they:,
are the compositions of Mr. E. Fitzwilliatn, and were dm
lightfully given by Miss K. Fitzwilliam. The melody=
of the last song, "I love him," is exceedingly
graceful. It was rewarded with an enthu-
siastic encore. Tke farce was completely successful.
The fiftieth representation of the superb spectacle Of
The King of the Peacocks followed, in which Madam
Veatris, Miss Kathleen Fitzwilliani, Miss J.. Coleman,
bliss Howard, Harley, John Reeve, and Selby, sus-
tained their respective characters with infinite !pint.
The piece goes as freshly as it did the first week it way
represented. It has not yet half run its course. Tits
house was crowded.
