HAYMARKET THEATRE.

Mr. Macready performed hamlet at this theatre
last evening, and was quite as enthusiastically received
as he was on Monday. The house was again crowded
to suffocation, not a place from which there was even
a chance of catching an occasional glimpse of the
stage being unoccupied. Macready acted the part
with great care, and in the third act more especially
produced an immense effect. The scene with his
mother was splendidly given. He was well supported
by Mrs. 'Warner, whose Gertrude was very fine, and
by Miss P. Horton, whose Ophelia is a most exquisite
piece of pathetic acting. Mr. Macready and Mrs.
Warner were both called forward at the conclusion
of the tragedy.

METROPOLITAN COMMISSIONERS OF SEWERS.—In
The Sun of yesterday it was stated that the Metropo-
litan Commissio❑ of Sewers, issued at the commence-
ment of the present year, had been determined by writ
of supersedeac. We are now enabled to state that a new
commission has been directed to the following persons:—
Viscount Ebrington, M.P.; Major-General Sir John
Burgoyne, K.C.8.; Sir Henry de la Beche, F.R.S.;
Robert Stephenson, E,q., M.P.; Samuel Morton Peto,
M.P.; Lieutenant-Colonel Alderson, Royal Engineers;
Philip Hardwick, Esq.; Captain Vetch, Royal Engi-
neers; J. M. Rendel, Esq.; Captain Harness, Royal
Engineers; Thomas Hawes, Esq.; Captain R. K. Daw-
son, Royal Engineers; and Edward Lawes, Eiq., bar-
rister-at law.

Last night Mr. Artis gave his first elocutionary
entertainment, entitled " A Night with the Poets," at
the Freemasons' Tavern; he successively introduced—
Poetry—Definition—Orin of Poetry—Efficacy of it-
-Readings from Milton'sig " Paradise Lost "—Poets—Re-
Marks on them—The Dying Slave—M. Lewis—" The
Captive," in the first part. The second part consisted
of—Remarks on Shakspere's King Lear—Readings from
that Tragedy. The entertainment was listened to very
attentively throughout by a very crowded and delighted
auditory. We hope soon to have the pleasure of meeting
Mr. Arris again.
Mr. More O'Ferrall had an interview with Earl
Grey yesterday, at the Colonial-office.

ANOVELTY for the approaching season is in
preparatbin to which a distinguishing name has not yet been
tiv..n, but which the inventors, Messrs. NICOLL, can recommend
as one of the most useful, warm, comfortable, and graceful articles
of gentlemanly attire ever produced. Specimens can be seen at 114,
116, and 120, Regent street, and 22, Comilla, as also TILE TREBLE
Garment, or I'ALETOT, called THE NICOLL, which retains all the
characteristics of the famed l'aletot (registered 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 65)
iu its exterior, and has the additional advantages of being convertible
from a warm to a light Overcoat, or viee versa, at the pleasure of
the wearer, or as the mild or cold nature of the weather may re-
quire. This garment must he seen and worn to be properly appre.
elated ; it will be found, perhaps, the best preservative of health in
this variable climate. THE NICOLL has been secured by Royal
Letters Patent in ENGLAND. IRELAND, SCOTL kND, and the
COLONIES ; It can, therefore, only be purchased in the country, or
abroad, of Sfessrs NICOLL'S (the patentees) recognised AGENT ;,
and in LONDON only •f themselves, ♦iz., at 114, 116, 120,

CONSUMPTION OF SMOKE.

This often wished for, but never realised improve•
ment, may now be said to be effectually aehieved.
We speak not from theory, but from actual obser-
vation. A short time ago, Messrs. Chambers of
our city erected a new furnace. and chimney for
a ten-horse power steam-engine, which moves
their printing machinery ; and, with a view
to remove all challenge respecting smoke, they ap-
plied Juckes's patent smoke-consuming apparatus.
This apparatus resembles nothing else of the kind.
It consists of what may be called an endless chain
of bars, disposed not crosswise but lengthwi,e, and
this chain of bars forms the bottom of the furnace,
on which the live coal blazes. The chain moves
very slowly forward—not more than at the rate of
an inch in the minute—from the front to the back
of the furnace, carrying the fire along with it. At
the back or bridge of the furnace, the chain of bars
moves round, and comes back beneath. Thus it
goes on endlessly from morning till night. The
apparatus is fixed on a carriage, which is run into
its place on a species of railroad: and the whole—
that is, the whole bottom of the furnace—can be .
dragged or out at pleasure, by which means
every facility is presented for cleaning, renovation,
&c. The chain of bars is moved by connecting gear
from the steam-engine. The coal is laid on a
hopper at the mouth of the furnace, and is carried
forward by the bars, the depth of coals that enters
being regulated by an iron door, which is depressed

HERRING TRADE.

WicK, Ocr. 3. We are yet unable to report a
revival in the staple trade of this place, and, indeed,
of the north-east coast of Scotland. In fact, it is im-
possible adequately to pourtray the present depressed
condition of the herring market, or to predict its
consequences to the many thousands that directly
depend upon the business, unless a change fur the
better speedily takes place. The real state of matters
may in some faint degree be imagined, when we state
that 13s. per barrel, for full grown brands, may be
quoted as the present price in our local market, and
that in not a few cases the returns from distant mar-
kets do not even realise that sum. Now, as it is
well known that the fishermen, on an average, re-
ceived this year fully 11s. per cran, the fish-curer
has barely 2s. to meet the price of barrel, salt, sta-
tion rent, coopers' wages, expense of gutting, packing,
and many other items.
Last advices from Stettin represent a trifling im-
provement, both i❑ demand and prices, and hold out
hopes, which we trust the sequel may prove correct,
that a further melioration will take place. The
season for shipments to that and other continental
markets being now nearly over, and a cessation of
exports on an extensive scale having taken place from
the east coast, the addition to the present stock on
hand cannot be material. Hamburgh has declined a
shade since the date of previous letters.
From Ireland, last accounts are very unfavourable.
In many markets, where a large consumption for-
merly took place, the demand is now scarcely per-
ceptible. Indeed, we fear Ireland need scarcely be
trusted as a herring market. The potato failure,
and the extraordinary low rate at which American
beef and bacon can now be had, with other cir-
cumstances, combine to show fish-curers that they
must look somewhere else for an outlet for their fish.

This season 161 vessels have sailed from Pulteney.
town Harbour with cargoes of herrings. About three-
fourths of these have been sent, to the Continent,
and the remainder to home ports. Since our last
report six vessels have been entered—three for Ireland,
and three for the Baltic.

A good many coopers, we are sorry to see, have
been paid off; but from the deficient stock of barrels,
we should hope they will not remain long unem-
ployed.

- A few good cargoes of Norwegian billetwood have
arrived this week. Last price was 9d. per solid foot.

HOW TO ESCAPE FROM FIRE.
The Kent Mutual Fire•of}ice have just issued the
following instructions to assist persons to escape from
premises when on fire. They say—" The want of
presence of mind at the time of an alarm of fire is by
far the greatest hindrance to an escape, and for this
no regulation can be laid down ; but a few simple
directions to be observed by the bystanders and in-
mates, well considered and reflected upon in time of
safety, will, in a great measure, tend to discreet and
successful efforts in the hour of danger."

ALLOWANCE TO BANKRUPTS UNDER THE NEW
LAW.—There is a new feature in the Bankruptcy Act
with regard to allowance to bankrupts. Hitherto the
law has been that an allowance was made by the credi-
tors, subject to the approval of the commissioners, but
now the power is vested in the Court. By the 194th
section it is declared that it shall be lawful for the
Court, if it shall think fit, to make an allowance from
time to time to the bankrupt, out of his estate, until he
➢hall have passed his last examination, as shall be neces-
sary for the support of himself and family, provided
that no such allowance shall be made by the Court for
any period after the adjournment of the last examination
sine die.

HACKNEY POOR-RATE COLLECTION.—Yesterday
full meeting of the members of the poor board was held
to consider the propriety of appointing an additional
collector of the parochial rates. After a long discussion
in the course of which it transpired that the two present
collectors received upwards of 400/. per annum, the re-
port of a committee appointed to inquire into the sub-
ject was received, and a resolution declaratory of the
necessity for a third collector was unanimously carried.
This step is imperatively demanded, owing, it is said, to
the rapidly increasing rental of the parish; and also to
the inability of the collectors to do full justice to its
widely extended districts. Some idea of the presumed
value of the newly created office may be furnished by the
fact that a guardian of the poor and a member of the
trustee board have resigned their posts of honour, and
are already in the field as competitors for the parochial
emolument. A severe struggle is expected.

To Shareholders this Company offers an investment totally free
from risk, with a valuable property and increasing source of divi-
dend, such as few undertakings have ever been able to command ;
whilst the small amount of the shares, wholly paid so, will enable
persons in every grade of society to participate in the advantages,
without the annoyance of any future call. The cattle market at Li-
verpool, which was formerly held in the centre of the town, has been
removed to the suburbs, and the 25/. shares pay a dividend of 2/. 185.

A PENNY LODGING-HOUSE.
) At the Thames Police- court yesterday James Hayes
was charged with savagely assaulting two wretched
boys, named John Sullivan and James Green, who
) are without home, friends, or the means of sabsistence.
) The complainants had been in the practice of
ing in a penny lodging- house, kept by the prisoner's
mother in-law, in Blue Anchor-yard, Rosemary -lane.
The boys, who had not been able to procure a meal
on Tuesday, repaired to the house on Tuesday night,
for the purpose of sleeping there. They had no
money, and the landlady said they should not stay
there. The boys refused to leave the place, on
which Mrs. O'Brien called her son in law, who
armed himself with a blackthorn stick, with
which he beat the poor boys over the head and
shoulders in a most savage manner, and severely
injured them. Their cries brought a police.
constable to the house, who found the lads bleeding
profusely, and the prisoner standing over them with
a stick. The fellow was immediately arrested, and the
boys were sent to the London Hospital to have their
heads dressed, and they appeared with bandages on
them, and said that they had been grievously as-
saulted and wounded. The policeman described the
scene which presented itself in the room he entered.
It was a very small one, extremely filthy, and there
was no furniture of any description in it. There were
16 men, women, and children, lying on the floor with-
out covering. Some of them were half naked. For
this miserable shelter, each lodger paid a penny. The
stench was intolerable, and the place had not been
cleansed out for some time. It was also stated, that
several cases of cholera had occurred in the house and
the adjoining ones, which were equally filthy.
The prisoner said the boys would not leave the
house, and made the first attack on him.
This statement, however, was completely dis.
proved by John Shea, one of the penny lodgers
who said the attack on the boys was brutal and un.
provoked

- Mr. Yardley expressed his surprise that so many
human beings should be huddled together in one close
room. It was lamentable that such a state of things
existed in this metropolis. He condemned the con-
duct of the prisoner in strong terms, and said he had
no right to use the stick on the boys, and beat them
as he had done. He fined the prisoner 405., and in
default of payment committed him to the
ouse of
Correction for fourteen days. 4

YOB INMATES.

I. Every householder should make each person in
his house well acquainted with the parts thereof
which afford the best means of escape, whether the
fire break out at the top or at the bottom ; and in
securing the street-door and lower windows for the
night, care should be taken that an easy outlet for
every member of the house is not thus prevented in
ca,e of fire. Tnere are many excellent fire-escapes
invented for keeping
in dwelling-houses, amongst
which may be mentioned, Thompson's, Baylis's, But-
ler's, and Lee's.
2. Inmates at the first alarm should endeavour
calmly to reflect what means of escape there are in
the house; if in bed at the time wrap themselves in
a blanket or bedside carpet, and open neither window
nor doors more than necessary, and shut every door
after them.

$. It must be borne in mind that in the midst of
smoke it is comparatively clear towards the ground,
consequently progress through the smoke can be made
on the hands and knees ; if there is much smoke a

PRUSSIA.

The second edition of the Cologne Gazette of
yesterday publishes a telegraphic dispatch from Berlin,
dated the evening of the 9th October, and announcing
the adoption of the second part of the 105th (and
most important) section of the Constitution, by the
majority of 237 to 63 votes.

THE PEACE CONGRESS.
The following letter has been addressed to Lord
Palmerston by the Peace Congress Committee of
London, relative to the dispute now pending between
the British and Portuguese Governments, on the
subject of the forcible release of Mr. Summers at
Macao :

" Peace Congress Committee, 15, New Broad-
street, Sept. 29, 1849.
" My Lord,—We have learnt with deep regret that a
misunderstanding has arisen between the British and
Portuguese Governments, in consevence of the death
of a Portuguese soldier, killed at Macao by a party of
English marines who were engaged in forcibly releasing
a British subject from confinement. Whilst this trans-
action justly demands the most searching investigation,
we beg to express our earnest hope that it will not be
permitted for one moment to disturb the friendly rela-
tions of the two countries, and that, should any obstacle
arise to prevent its amicable adjustment, to the entire
satisfaction of both parties, by ordinary diplomatic
negotiation, your Lordship will at once exert your high
influence to secure the settlement of the dispute by
friendly negotiation.
"Signed on behalf of the Peace Congress Committee
of London.
" To the Right Hon. Lord Palmerston."
