NORFOLK and NORWICH FESTIVAL

NORWICH, WEDNESDAY.—The unpropitious state of the
weather had raised some misgivings as to the attendance at
the first concert of the Grand Festival, which commenced yes-
terday evening ; but we are happy to be enabled to state that
the fears have proved groundless, inasmuch as upwards of 1.9
persons occupied the patrons' gallery, and nearly 700 the side
galleries and body of St. Andrews' Hall, exceeding conside-
rably the number collected at the first concert at the last Fes-
tival in 1833. The streets leading to this magnificent struc-
ture were crowded with spectators to witness the arrival of the
visitors, but the excellent arrangements which had been made
prevented any disorder or confusion, and the approaches both (ir
carriages and foot passengers were convenient and easy of t e
cess. The view of the Hall, as seen from the exterior, was sin-
gularly beautiful. The strong glare of light from the interior
which illuminated the fine Gothic windows of each side the nave,
and those of the aisles presented the appearance of an illumi-
nated palace. It might almost have been imagined, detach-
ing one's thoughts from surrounding objects, that a portion of
the Alhambra was before you. This very pretty and. inte-
resting effect was, however, trifling when compared w.ith the
splendid spectacles which burst upon the sight on entering the
Hall. From the windows on each side of the nave were
.sus-
pended a line of elegant festoons, composed of myriads of small
gas burners, which shed a genial and graceful light upon all
the objects beneath. From the middle of the finely-propor-
tioned pillars branches of gas-lights were seen, and over the
orchestra a circle of gas, without the formality of a chande-
nfiee, was let down from the roof. Immediately before the
The
patrons' gallery a similar plain ring of gas was nung.
whole system of lighting the Hall was admirable, inasmuch as
there was no disagreeable glare to distress the
was soft and subdued. Amongst the occupants of the patron!
gallery we recognised the High Sheriff of the county, Marquis
of Northampton, Lord and Lady Suffield, Lord hnd Lady
Sondes, Sir W. and Lady B. Proctor, Hon. Mr. and Mrs.
Scarlett, Sir Edward and Miss Bacon, Sir C. B. Vo?,
M. P. ; Colonel Rushbrooke, M. P. ; Sir T. S. Gooch, Sir
Jacob Astley, M. P. ; Sir W. J. B. Folkes, M. P. ; Hon. Mr.
Keppel, Edmund Wodehouse, Esq., M.P. ; the Chairman of
the Committee of Management, Samuel Bignold, Esq. ; the
Mayor and Sheriff of Norwich, and several families
of dis-
tinction in the county.
After Haydn's symphony had been finely performed by the
band, especially the last movement, the National Althem was
given, the first verse being sung by Caradori Allan, the second
by Hobbs, and the third harmonized by Miss Bruce, H.
Phil-
lips, Hawkins, and Hobbs. At this moment, when the audi-
ence were standing, and the entire band of 400 performers
were pouring forth an immense volume of sound, the spectacle
was particularly grand and imposing. It was impossible not to
be struck with the dazzling beauty of earth's fairest objects--
the ladies who were assembled. It has been our lot to be a
wanderer in many climes, and where a summer's sun has burned,
and a winter's snow has chilled ; but on no occasion, whether of
weal or of woe, have we ever witnessed such a numerous assem-
blage of beautiful women, perfect in features, and unexception-
able in form. The classical and patrician caste was remarkably
visible. If we might venture to speak physiognomically—{or
phrenologically we will not—we should say that the intellectual
qualities were as manifest as the merely beautiful. It was a
charming sight, and Norfolk may indeed be proud of such
daughters. We had almost forgotten that our task is to treat
of things musical, and not of things physical, and we will
therefore return to the programme. Mrs. A. Shaw created
some sensation amongst the amateurs, by the very efficient
manner with which she sang " Pensa alla patria," and ob-
tained considerable applause. The debuts of the charming
Assandri and of the great basso were of the most flattering,
description. Lablache was received with several rounds of
approbation, which he acknowledged by singing in his best
style.
The concert imparted infinite satisfaction, although to the
metropolitan musical habitue it afforded few attractions, as the
pieces have all been so much hackneyed. The scheme Was
also too long, a besetting sin at the Festivals, which ought to
be abandoned as soon as possible. If vocalists and instru-
mentalists are expected to perform their duties efficiently,
they must not be kept from eleven in the morning to four to
the afternoon, and then from eight till twelve in the evening.
This labour may answer for one day, but the powers of the
performers will be materially impaired if such sharp practice
be followed up.

MURDER.—On Thursday Caillot was put on his
trial at Jersey for murdering, by a pistol shot, Mary Jane,
Williams, and on the following day was found Guilty, a"
sentenced to suffer death.

LORD MELBOURNE.—A correspondent of the
Liverpool Standard, states that the Reformers in that town
have resolved on inviting the Premier and Lord John Russell
to a public dinner at the Amphitheatre.
Advices have been received from India relative to
the projected Railway from Channel Creek to Calcutta. The
following observations are from the Bengal Paper of the 23d
of May :—" That a Railway is practicable between the taco
places there can be no question, the country being nearly
level ; the difficulty and expence of such an undertaking
would, perhaps, not be considerable, while it would certainly
bring a large tract of land, now almost entirely waste, into ad-
vantageous cultivation. About twenty-five years ago, Mr;
J. Palmer and some other mercantile gentlemen projectea
some such a scheme—the level of the country was taken, and
an estimate of the expences formed—the plan was considered
feasible, but nothing further was done, from the difficulty of
raising money. During the time the late Commodore Hayes
was master attendant, he, accompanied by some of the most
experienced pilots, made several examinations of the inlets 0
the river leading from the sea into the Channel Creek, and
:
was very sanguine as to the practicability and great utility
bringing ships through that channel into the Hooghly, in pre-
ference to the usual route."

Letters reached Dublin on Saturday morning, staling
that Mrs. O'Connell was on the point of death. -All hopes
of her recovery have been abandoned for some time.
An illustration of the fatal effects of terrifying chile

A little girl, between the age of six and seven, for some se
of childish disobedience, was thrust into a dark cellar at some
distance from the house, and suffered to remain there throughti
out the night. The dreadful cries and screams which the chi'a
uttered produced no effect upon her unfeeling preceptors, ale
when the door was opened in the morning the poor child was
an idiot; a medical man, who was instantly summoned, ba
pronounced her recovery extremely doubtful.
Some quarrymen in the neighbourhood of Doulearlgl:

ministration of the War Department, is named in-
tendant of the first military division.
M. BERNARD had repeatedly declined the 'War
Department, as he is no orator, and totally disqualified
to repel the attacks of the Opposition in the Chamber
of Deputies. M. MARTIN (Du NORD) is a lawyer of
considerable ability, but he knows nothing whatever of the
duties of his present office. The KING, however, could
not find any other person of equal influence with the
Chambers to accept the Port ffeuille of Public Works,
and it had become imperatively necessary to have the
shadow of a French Administration to oppose to the
movements now going forward in Spain and Portugal.

We have received a file of the Jamaica Despatch,
from the 24th of July to the Bth of August inclusive.
The Colonists are rather peaceable, and the com-
plaints of the masters respecting the conduct of the
black apprentices, have more of the tone of habitual
petulance, than of the resentment of real injury in
them. In fact, the manumitted labourers seem to
conduct themselves in a manner quite as orderly and
as peaceable as their masters. Dr. MACDON-
NELL, the Catholic Bishop of the Island of Gre-
nada, addressed a memorial to Sir LIONEL SmITH,
the Governor-General, praying his Excellency to ask
the House of Assembly for funds for the support of
four Catholic clergymen, for the service of the island.
The Bishop stated that there were upwards of twenty-
thousand Catholics in the island, and that unless some
temporary provision was made for the support of Ca-
tholic clergymen, they, must be deprived of all religious
consolation. His Excellency the Governor referred
the memorial of the Prelate to the House of Assembly.
The following extract from the Jamaica Despatch
must satisfy the most scrupulous minds of the inten-
sity of the religious devotion of the West Indians :

whence this passage clearly shows the quarter

deat4ll and AVG EE block. Its object is equally evi-

Our enemies in the mother country most grossly calumniate
us when they state that we have no regard for the morals of
the peasantry of Jamaica. Be this as it may, it cannot be
attributed to the inhabitants ; as we venture to assert that
there is no spot of equal extent on the face of the earth,
where so many prayers ought to be sent up to the throne of
Grace in favour of 350,000 sinners I

niators—look at the following list of those who so kindly in-
terest themselves for the salvation of our immortal souls :

In the Eco del Commereio of Madrid, dated the 11th instant,
appeared an address from the Junta of Malaga to the Govern-
ment, detailing their proceedings, and giving an account of
the money collected by them, an its appropriation ; also stat-
ing that the two battalions raised by the Junta are placed at
the disposal of the Government. This is a contradiction of the
Junta having disposed the monies collected for their own use.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

Jonathan Holcomb and John Beck were indicted for steal-
ing on the 10th August thirty yards of cloth, twenty-five yards
of silk, four yards velvet, and other articles, the property of
Louis Stetcher, from his dwelling-house.
The prosecutor said he was a tailor residing in Argyle-
street, St. James's, Westminster, ; the prisoner Holcomb had
been his errand boy. On the night in question, when he went
to bed, all his doors and windows were fastened. At a little
after twelve, his wife gave an alarm, and he went down stairs,
and found his front door open ; he saw a boy run away, and
followed him, but did not overtake him. When he returned,
and procured a light, he found the articles mentioned tied up
for removal. They were at night safe in his parlour, which
was then locked. The goods had been removed through a win-
dow, and carried into the passage.
Wm. Trowbridge, foreman to the last witness, deposed that
when he came in the morning of the 11th of August, he found
that a robbery had taken place. He and an officer went to
Holcomb's house, and found him. On being told what he was
taken for, he said that Beck was in it. Beck, on being told
that said, if so, he had better make a confession. Witness
would not hear anything till they were before a Magistrate.
John Giblin, a policeman, was called by the prosecutor, and
he and last witness went to Holcomb's house. In consequence
of what he said, Beck was taken into custody. When Beck
was taken to Stetcher's house, he said that Holcomb put him
up to the robbery, and that they did it, and took the property
to a house in Monmouth-street. Nothing was found in that
house. A parcel of goods was brought to prosecutor's house,
about two hours after Holcomb was taken into custody, by his
father. The last witness told Holcomb that it would be better
for him to tell the truth. He made a statement before the
Magistrate.
Mr. DOANE submitted that the promise made to Holcomb
prevented that statement from being given in evidence.
The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said there was much doubt on the
point, and it might be reserved. He would admit the evidence
at present.
`Witness said, when Holcomb was asked by the Magistrate
what he meant to do with the property, he said he meant to
take it to a Jew in Monmouth-street.

Troubridge recalled. Saw the statement made by Beck
taken down, and attested it. The clerk read it, and it impli-
cated Holcomb as the instigator of the robbery, which was
done by them two and another. They got in before the men
left the shop, and concealed themselves in the coal-hole till all
had gone to bed, when they effected the robbery, and sold
some of the goods to a Jew in Monmouth-street.
The Learned JUDGE shortly recapitulated the evidence, and
the jury returned a verdict of Guilty against both prisoners.
John Hamilton and Henry Knight were indicted for stealing
two pieces of lawn, the property of George Revell, a draper
of Newington.
About twelve o'clock on the 25th August, the two prisoners
were seen standing in Newington Causeway, by two shopmen
of the prosecutor's. They went up to the window, broke it,
and took out two pieces of lawn. They were immediately
seized, and the property found upon Hamilton.
The prisoners said nothing in their defence, and the Jury
returned a verdict of Guilty against Hamilton, and Not Guilty
in favour of Knight:
Henry Knight was then indicted for stealing, on the same
day, a quantity of silk-handkerchiefs, the property of John
Kennaird.

A little boy, named James Day, was passing Mr. Kennaird's
shop, where he saw the prisoner put his hand into the window
and take a quantity of silk-handkerchiefs, with which he went
off. There were others along with him. He was quite sure
of the prisoner, though he had not seen him before. Only
one silk-handkerchief was found upon the prisoner ; it was a
new one, and the prosecutor said he had lost many of the
same pattern.—Verdict, Guilty.
