FALSE ALARM DURING PABLO FANQUE9SFSIIOI;
FORMANCES AT MANCHESTER.—The performaro.- .4
• Saturday night last, at the Amphitheatre, Mount- sq;
at
where Signor Pablo Fanque's equestrian compsnr hjef
present, being for the benefit of Mr. Wallett, the „
clown, it was announced as a special attraction, that 7,3
the conclusion of the other entertainments a pig won. ith
be run for in the circus, by the first six persons wh'
should enter the gallery, who were to be blindfoldea
during the running. Attracted by this not very novel
bait, there was a very crowded audience in the gallery,
and the other parts of the house were also very well:
filled. As the persons in the back part of the gallery
are unable to see more than from a half to three-quattero
of the ring, there was a great pressure from behind oar.

This had not continued very long, when an alarm was
given by some one in front, that the gallery was givii4
way. The house was immediately in confusion, thosal!'
the pit crowding into the arena, and some of those in the
gallery rushing down stairs, whilst others slid down tul
pillars supporting the gallery, or even boldly leap,r!
thence into the arena. Mr. Wallett announced that, the
performances were closed ; and that the pig woal?
given to the six competitors to be raffled for, or otne,_
,wise disposed of as they thought fit. The audience then
quietly left the house.--illancleesfer Guardian.
ADVENTURE IN SYRIA..—We have just heard ofan
interesting adventure of Lieutenant Molynenx, of De
Majesty's frigate Spartan, which may amuse our '; of
ers. He, having volunteered to make survey the
the Dead Sea, during the time the frigate was on
,;mi
coast of Syria, (a sea, by the bye, which has ..sever be
thoroughly surveyed), started with three of the errsho
the above frigate. Soon after the arrival 01 :be
gallant lieutenant at the place of his labours '„d
boat's crew were attacked by a band of Arabs, 1",/
made prisoners. The Arabs were, however, satisfe
with not taking their lives, but plundered them of ese,...tri.-
thing they had about them, not even excepting t'
s,
shirts, and thus left them exposed to a burning sun 01:1,_
parched sand. The sailors bravely persevered, and OS
incredible hardships arrived safe at Be rout, with
backs skinned by the heat, and their feet dreadfthir
swollen. The men were conveyed on board of her Abe:
jesty's steamer Heela, and immediately were put or
re,
sick -list. But to return to the lieutenant ; he Was 111°b,r
fortunate; whilst riding on a camel he was attacked ¢Y
the Arabs, but with the true courage of a 13rWsLato,
immediately jumped off the camel's back, and gettwo,hir
leeward, presented his double-barrelled gun ove" c
neck of the camel, and with his finger on the teggesi
threatened the robbers to fire upon the first th
attempted to touch him. In this state he trei;
veiled, keeping the ruffians at bay, four 01,1;,;
and at last reached Jerusalem in safety. '4

ancient, historical, and interesting sea. The Cadi
