LITINFOOL TIINATRI ROTAL.—We have much
• pleasure in receiving from our correspondent in Liver-
pool a communication stating that Mr. G. Bennett's new
s• play, the Justiza (of which we gave a notice as having
'` been produced with great success some weeks ago at
' Birmingham), was played to a Liverpool audience with
"•
a success as complete as the author could well desire.
The frequenters of Sadler's Wells will be delighted to
• ' ' know that an actor of such sterling merit is likely to
attain one of the highest ranks in dramatic literature.
It has been matter of surprise to us that he has not long
ere this attained the topmost position in his profession,
iiing, as we do, his attainments as an actor and a
• scholar. We trust ere long to witness one of his plays
prouuced, at One 1
our leading theatres.

—A public meeting of
the members of

took place last
the association is e to 1
n Convening Rooms. The object of
those
the rights of conscience,
to sympathise with and
dictates." The friend e who suffer for listening to her
were invited to attends i(llfteivil and religious liberty
warmly to the invitation, the they
did not respond very
numbers present not being
great. John Wigham, jun.
he along with the Rev. Dr. Ritcelhiewl7. in the chair; and
Ritchie, Rev, Mr. Knox, Mr.
Crowe from Honduras, in Central
terehant, and
America; Mr. Brown,

the speaking
part
Mr. James Letham, tobacconist, Shortei;
in the proceedings. The drift of all
• . show that a simple " yea" or " nay" was all that swears Dto
ture required of us to give, and that a solemn affirruat'i" -
or negation was equally binding as an oith—that a ple°rll
son who would tell a lie would as readily perjure himself
—and that eath-taking was one of the most grievous
burdens under which a people could labour. One of the
speakers stated that he had been in correspondence with
the Duke of Argyle upon the subject, and his Grace
stated that he had not turned his attention much to the
question of oaths, and was not prepared to introduce a
rill into Parliament, in regard to it, still if Lord Jus-
tice Denman should see fit to re-introduce his Bill of
1842, which went the length of not putting the oath to
any party who objected to it on religious grounds, he
would, in all likelihood, give that proposition his cordial
support. Various resolutions were submitted to the
meeting, and a petition, founded on the resolutions, was
read, with the view of being signed by those of the inha-
bitants of Edinburgh who approve of the object of the
association, and then tto be intrusted to a Member of
2 Parliament for presentation early next session.—

Jones, 8.A., a very handsome set of robes, as a mark of
their respect and esteem for him, and that his great and

The Roman Ministry had promised the deputation of
the clubs that the question of the ConstituentAsembly
should be decided on the 26th. On that day, accord-

the Chamber of Deputies a letter from the Junta,
declaring that if the Cabinet and the Chambers did not
immediately proclaim the Constituent, it would itself
assume the initiative. He afterwards read a report
