LV CEUM THEATRE.

A bustling farce, frorn the pen of Mr. Bayle Ber-
(ad im Prarbalc-
y
nard, was produced here on Saturday under the title
toifeaAl
I‘Piraanctzi.csalaMcaenriaNivnithmgrrecatiosuudcecseisesy. The
acted by Mr. Charles Mathews), who is a sort of
juvenile bustling, rollicking, chattering, volatile Sir
Abel Handy, in a perpetual fidget himself, and
a sore torment to all with whom he comes in contact,
an English Alnaschar. Plot there is none, the
imaginative vivacity of the hero does the whole business,
and does it excellently well. We doubt not but that
Mr. Charles Mathews will be to the full as popular
in Cloudesley as he is in Captain Patter. The farce
went bri*kly off, and at the conclusion Charles
Mathews was called for and loudly applauded.

FLAX COTTON—It perhaps may not be generally
known, even by those engaged in flax, that by com-
pletely robbing the fibre of all its gum, we get imme-
diately a fine downy material like raw cotton, only rather
stronger. The strength of the flax is rather diminished
by this process, but still the fibre is superior to cotton;
and it may be passed through all the present cotton
machinery in the subsequent processes. This cannot
fail to be highly interesting, now that we are threatened
with a scarce and consequently dear and inferior supply
of cotton; and since much flax stalk is thrown away,
both at home and in India, the plant being cultivated for
the seed, it follows that we have here, prima facie, a
much less expensive raw material than cotton.
EanATsml.—ln the report of the county meeting of
Middlesex magistrates, on Saturday, the name of Von
Orloff Brink should have been printed " Carl (Charles)
Olof (Olave) Brink," that gentleman being a Swedish
barrister-at-law, and Secretary to the Royal Board of
Prisons in Sweden. Mr. Brink is at present in this
country on a special mission Lrelating to the examina-
tion of the system of police and prison discipline in
England.
