ADELPHI THEATRE.

A one act drama, entitled The Coniracks, was pro
duced here last evening, for the purpose of affording to
M. Legrand, the celebrated French Pierrot, an oppor.:
tunity of exhibiting his wonderful talents us a Panto-
mimist. He acts the part of the dumb servant of a
French officer, who has been taken prisoner by the
Spaniards, while seeking an interview with his lady-
love, the daughter of an old Spanish Den. The dumb
servant rescues his master, and assists the lovers, and,
in consequence of his intervention, all ends happily.
his pantomime was perfect, and the expression of his
countenance was precisely that peculiar fixed and
piercing look (as far as the eyes and upper part,
of the face are concerned), joined to that meaning-
less expression (as 'far as the mouth and lower part
of the face is concerned) which it is impossible
to describe, but which all persons who have come much
into contact with the dumb will at once recognize as
the characteristic expression of the deaf mute. The
piece was completely successful, and was followed by the
Flowers of the Forest, which, thanks to the acting of
Madame Celeste, Miss Woolgar, and Miss Davenport,
continues to be as attractive as ever. The Starlight
Bess of Miss Davenport is the beat we have ever seen.
It is superior even to that of Mrs. Fitzwilliam, over
whom Miss Davenport has the advantage (an inesti-
mable advantage in the personation of such characters
as this) of youth, while she is quite her equal in all
artistic requirements. The house was crowded.

FRENCH PLAYS, ST. JAMES'S.
A three-act vaudeville, entitled Le Gant at L'Evantail
(an English version of which, under the title of Love's
Telegraph, was produced some three years since at the
Princess's for Charles Mathews and Madame Vestris),
was produced here last evening, with complete success.
Mademoiselle Nathalie as the Princess Amelie (the
Princess with a heart, as she might be aptly designated),
was beautiful exceedingly. A Sovereign Princess, her
Ministers advise that she should marry. She has fixed
her affections on her secretary, Edgard de Limberg
Monteland), who himself is attached to one of the
ladies of the Court, Mathildo (Mademoiselle Baptiste),
The lovers are frequently together in company, seldom
together alone, but by means of a code of telegraphic
signals, the gentleman signalling with his glove, and the
lady with her fan, they manage to carry on most inte-
resting conversations in the presence of the Princess
herself, who, however, at length discovers the
manmuvre, and is in an agony of despair at finding
that she has thrown away her young affections on a roan
so utterly unworthy of them as Edgard. She orders the
lovers into custody, but after giving way to an agony of
grief she becomes calmer, forgives them, and deter,
mines to be satisfied with doing her duty
in that station in which she is placed.
even although she cannot attach to herself
one loving heart, and reaps nothing but ingra-
titude for the favours she bestows. The acting of !ia•
dame Nathalie in the earlier scenes was exceedingly
graceful and queenlike, and in the latter scenes, when
the woman whose tenderest feelings have been lacerated
breaks out through all the conventionalities of Court
life, her impassioned pathos was heartrending. She was
admirably supported by M. Montaland and Mademoiselle
Baptiste as the lovers. Their glove and fan exercise was
most amusing. The piece was excellently put on the
stage.

apposed obligation of some fiscal commutation, in consequence
hich payment, it was proved at the September Court, that the
dnations of this temple, and destruction of human life, still coil-
, precisely as if the said dispatch had never been issued. This
is of opinion that the local Government is manifestly exceeding
immtssion, and that the tires to fully arrived when it becomes the
rative duty of this Court, to Christianity and the country, to
'pose, and. to declare that all such vuppert of heathenism shall
an immediate end."
iat a proprietor has given notice, that at the said Quarterly
iral Court he will submit the following motion, viz. :
"That the following declaration, male by Major Carpenter
Governor-General's agent at Benares, in charge of the late
ef Staters), in his letter to the Government ef Ind dated the
of May, 1846, namely, ' That after having carefully studied the

ew to ascertain the truth or falsehood of the charges of certain

property, driven into banishment, and confined as a state pri-
g' at lien:ins until his death.

TO Tlll LADIES.
This lady had the following letter inserted in the " Times" news-
paper on Aug. 7,1046. Reader, remember, this letter was put into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
Aistlty of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate for the egicacy of bit Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months,
- and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than
lever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to7the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Itigenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an 1 Is. bottle it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and produotion of hair in abund-
ance, bat as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume iti far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough."
- In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, aro w
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
?eat the hair from coming` way with the comb, mage
aid it strong, and
• prevent it turning grey, rdering the hair limuriant surly. A
iew drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may nse this delightful precinct of the
most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
odour removes headache and -blares it a most necessary companion
13 the tellet. In cases of nevous headache, peer tea or twelve drops
on the erovrn of the head ; If very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
hour In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It pr

Marriage reqaires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which errors the origin of domestic wretchedness, he raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
itbe traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant dwhen
isap-
Deintments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which
heed in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
.he nature and consconence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
ire productive of greater severity of misery to the human tratne,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account off tot
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs and of
their relative conditions In health and disease. It deservedly'
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more imeortance than the preservation of the health,
and et the physical capabilities of which every man should
• be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
Victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
In early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently-, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the roach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. in acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination n ascertainin,g the Mlles of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show Hy his possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes-
. tonal pursuits, the utmost contidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost
Solely to the treatment of these diseases.
