ARRIVAL OF THE JANE AND VIEWFORTIL

( From the Hull Advertiser.)
d
Thursday evening, this town was again the scene of su
den and unexpected joy. Shortly before five o'clock, are,
port was spread that the Jane was in the Humber, and by"„-
dreds hastened to witness her arrival.
The Jane got beset on the 30th September, in lat. 68,
company with the Middleton of Aberdeen, and the Vieufer',
of Kirkaldy, and continued beset until the 31st January, wiled'
she got clear of the ice in lat. 58. N., during the whole
which interval they had a continued succession of heahe.
breezes, and all the ships received many a squeeze from
collision of the ice. On Sunday, the sth of November, t"
Middleton became a wreck.
Extract from a letter dated H.M. S. Cove, Strom:lesg;
Feb. 15 :—" The Jane and Viewforth came into this plage,
two or three days since ; the latter was in a shocking e°
dition, fourteen having died, and thirty-one sick, ten of whifo
o,
were very bad indeed ; the cries of the poor fellows, w".„;
they were being hoisted out to be taken to sick quarters, w"
dreadful, the least motion creating extreme pain."

DRURY-.LANE TIIEATRE.—A novel and 1111.erest'
ing musical performance took place at t'iis threatre 12. st nig if
in lieu of the usual dramatic entertainment. It was a revie°:;sic
we may use the expression, of the rise and progress of
in Europe from the time of the Greeks to the
scientific music it should be said, as the melodies of maw,' le,
tions of our continent were not comprised within its ei,,rcrio
It began with nothing more nor less than a genuine Pin'', st
ode, such as it was sung (so deems or dreams Mr. Boclissittio
the Pythic games. The ode we have, and some record °t„ovt
music remains, but that the true effect of the latter can "rug
understood is wholly a matter of doubt. The solo and
last night were both of simpld style and not inexpressive, resetelt
bling early church composition. The accompaniment of thebut
flutes, the harps and cymbals, was singular and striking ;,i,at
present 66'Y00,
the whole effect, however curious, could not be much like laia
which wrapped the Greeks in enthusiasm. No Roman sloe
followed the Greek ; but, after a long interregnum,!iewlic
brought to the simple and noble sacred chorus of the Utoce
Church in the days of Ambrose and of Gregory. From the au
we were led to the Troubadours : Madame Caradori 06
sung a graceful lay of love, composed by Thibault, ICii/gfor
Navarre. Then came an English pastoral canon, or catch,
ti4i
six voices, said to be the first known specimen of comP°sl,
in contrasted parts. Then came some fine ecclesiastic coral)
tions of Germany, and Italy, and Flanders, by leading ni°'tbeAo
Luther's prayer, a broad and noble solo, was given by 11:11,401
in his best style. Some Italian madrigal music, very f rge-rf
and delicate, came into this first part of the selection. "A 1-1,,
agreeable English ballad by Lawes, ,‘Silly heart, forbel:1;,
was sung by Phillips with great applause. An English for
them, Hosanna in Excelcis," concluded the first periouvi
composition in the eighteenth century. The second Pe/1104
was one of great richness and exceeding interest, bringo,
forward the greatest of our more familiar modern nisst,,,,e
The third periOd comprised Haydn, Rossini, Mozart, C 1,7255
rosa, Weber and Sphor, whose grand chorus from The a
Judgment" finely concluded the whole review. The ho°s
was full.
PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 16.—Several additional 13'
bourers and artificers have been entered for duty at the '1°1::
yard, and much bustle has been occasioned, owing to the se',"
ral line-of-battle ships ordered to be brought forward for e°
mission. Among the number are theßenbow, 74, and Ponbr
74, both in dock. The Vanguard, 84, is also ready for hdistili;
her pendant, and still remains in the basin. The. Cad
donia, 120, flag-ship in the Mediterranean, is order
home to be paid off, her time having exp;xed.
rumoured that the Britannia, 120, at this port, will be fort
with dispatched to supply her place, the latter being in e",-rw
respect ready. Orders were received ttlis morning from "to
Admiralty for the corvette Scout, 20, Commander Cragie'her
proceed into harbour immediately, to be docked, and have Po
defects made good. This ship has only arrived a few dayles f_l(l.°,f
Sheerness, where she was fitted out, and now
proves ri,
She came into harbour this afternoon, and as
soon as repair'.
will proceed to her destination, Africa and the Cape.
SIR M. S. STEWART.—The absence of this .g.eil;
tleman from Parliament at its opening was occasioned hy,lJ:‘,
sudden death of Mr. Farquhar of Newark, his father-in' ir
who died suddenly at Keswick, on his way to London. ,
Michael was also on his way to London, but was recalled
this unexpected bereavement.

The Ultra Tories are quite dismayed in conseVe7,lo
of the Duke of Wellington absenting himself from the 14„°-ii,
of Lords. They are so violent and outrageous in theii:- re
o;
tics that no individual who has prudence or common sensS; so
give them his support. If the Radicals were to dictate to tb
Tories, they could not recommend to them any mode 0' t
ceeding more likely to lower them in the estimation o:: gieg
opinion of the public than those modes which the Ultra. 11""r"
now pertinaciously pursue.
