RUSSIA AND WALLACHIA.

On the 16th of September our troops crossed the
Sereth, and proceeded to Bucharest under the com-
mand of General Luder, Commander of the sth corps of
infantry. In the Wallachian Foksch, the avant
guard was received by the Bishop of Eparshie and
the inhabitants with public demonstration of joy.
From this point Colonel Skat iatin, the aid-de-camp,
was sent off with four hundred Cossacks to recon-
notire ta;and of Poles who are in the environs. He
met them on the 20th in the hamlet of Lagotar, and
sent to him a division of twenty Cossacks under
Etorandi Y schourbltof. The Cossacks attacked them
so suddenly that the Poles were only able to return a
few shots, some fled, and the rest defended them-
selves with their unloaded pieces ; they were soon
mastered by the Cossacks, seven were killed, and
twenty-three taken prisoners.
The following is General Luder's report respecting
the movement of the troops : ^ - _

" The avant guard of the troops confided to me ar-
rived at Bucharest on the 28th, and the main body
the 31st of September, with the exception of the di-
vision of General Hasford, who had been ordered to
Upper Wallachia. The troops are encamped along
the river which runs round that part of the city that
lies on the left bank of the Dembowizi.

"The avant guard, under the command of Major-
General Danileffsky, fell in on his march to Bucha-
rest, at Quasetheni, with a Turkish division, which
was also bound to Bucharest. After a mutual expres-
sion of goodwill, Major-General Danileffskv invited
the Turkish General to inspect his troops. Yesterday
I visited the Commissary of the Porte, Fuad Effendi,
ss also the commander of the Turkish troops, Omar
Paella, who testified their friendly sentiments towards
us. For determining the division of Bucharest into
two equal parts at the entry of our troops, and the
Turkish, after mutual deliberation, fixed upon the
river Dembowiza. The portion of the city lying on the
left bank of that river is occupied by our troops, and
the right bank by the
Turks, whose encampment is
now there. _
" I have appointed Major-General Rehfeldt, com-
mander of the 15th Artillery Brigade, commandant
of the portion of the city assigned to us, and to-
morrow the general staff wi I enter the city. After
the quartering lists of the troops shall have been
made out, the city, the environs, and the circles will
be assigned to them.
" Yesterday, after entering the city I inspected the
Uhlane Brigade of the sth Light Cavalry division,
which, under the command of Lieutenant-General
Bagra'isu Irneretinski had advanced from Ki.chinen
to Bucharest, being a distance of 450 werts in nine-
teen days. I found them all in admirable condition,
notwithstanding their forced marches. The horses
had not been overworked, and there were only six
men on the sick list."—Hamburgh Correspondent,

FRANCE.

A telegraphic dispatch has reached the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs to say that a serious quarrel had just
broken out at Tunis between the Dey and The French
Envoy. The quarrel was of so serious a nature that
the friendly relations between the two countries
must probably cease immediately. The news was
brought to Toulon by the Camelia steamer.

lsiderable delicacy, and by allowing the correspondence of
the poet to constitute the chief portion of the biography
—his own intermediate remarks being, figuratively
speaking, nothing more than the thread upon which
th@ pearls of fancy and the emeralds of wit are strung
together—he has revealed in the purest light the
intellect and character of this extraordinary man.
But for the publication of the letters contained in
these beautiful volumes, the public would have re-
trained in ignorance of one of the most exquisite
phases in the disposition of Keats, we mean his infinite
relish and appreciation of the humorous. Loving as
he did with his whole soul the ideal of the Beautiful,
and adoring from the innermost recesses of his pro-
found and susceptible heart the loftier and holier
emotions of humanity—the emotions of love, of pity,
of passion, and of grief—Keats, nevertheless, revelled
in those sudden gleams of wisdom and abrupt flashes
of imagination which are commonly called—wit. He
exulted in everything odd, comic, and grotesque, as
he did in everything fraught with pathos, affection,
and loveliness. He afforded another illustration of the
blending of extremes—that subtle principle of harmony
which constitutes the charm of antithesis in
rhetoric, and the magic effect of contrasting sounds
produced by the skill of the contrapuntist. Keats
seemed to feel that drollery was the natural ebullition
of the human mind in its moods of pleasure (and,
therefore for that reason, to be cherished) quite as
much as he believed iz the divine origin of the
nobler kinds of poetry—that creed which has been
since expressed so inimitably by the voice of Waldo
Emerson :

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

Moore's tragedy of Tke Gamester, the earliest and
certainly the best of our domestic dramas, was re-
vived here last night with the following cast :
Beverley Mal. C. Kean.
Stukeley Mr. Creswick.
Lewson .. Mr. Howe.
Jarvis
Mrs. Beverley ....Mrs. C. Kean.
As has been justly observed by a contemporary,
the character of Mrs. Beverley is one which shows
to very great advantage a principal phase of the ta-
lent of Mrs. Charles Kean. In the portrayal of in-
jured, gentle, meek, and loving womanhood, she has
no rival near her throne. Affecting and effective as
these delineations are, there is in them no straining
after effects no evident and elaborate trumping up of
the feelings, no artificial piling of the agony. lo
Mrs. Charles Kean pre-eminently belongs that
art which conceals art ; she sinks the heroine
in the woman. Infusing just enough of ideality into
her pathetic creations to redeem them from the charge
—if it be a charge—of not rising from the mere
prosaic realm of domestic misery into the more purely
spiritual kingdom of tragedy—Mrs. Kean places her
trust in an absolute truth to nature, elaborated and
displayed by the most subtle refinements of her art.
She is, if we may use the phrase, the least theatrical
of artists; yet she is one of the most dramatic. She
never exaggerates, yet she is never tame. To her,
in fact, it bas been given to find that oft-sought but
rarely discovered line of art which is dramatically
effective from the very depth and openness and hearti-
ness of its truth to our common nature. Nothing
.could be more exquisitely touching than her whole
portraiture of Mrs. Beverley—it was so graceful and
feminine, so tender and so true. The confident, the
assured, the disdainful, yet the thankful unbelief
with which she meets Stukeley's insinuations of her
husband's faithlessness, was beautifully summed up
in her delivery of the short; and seemingly trivial,
phrase, " I don't believe it ;" and the intense burst of
inarticulate anguish in the dying scene, was the very
consummation of art. The part of Beverley is one of
Mr. Charles Kean's best impersonations. He played
it last night like a true artist—thoughtful and
manly is Ms remorseful struggles during the earlier
scenes, while over the latter part of the play he flung
an intensity of dramatic energy, and a deep sense of
utter desolation, which were painfully powerful. As
a whole, the play was steadily and conscientiously
acted. The unpleasant part of Stukeley is not
unfitted to the peculiar character of Mr. Creswick's
style, and he rendered it with a sustained and gloomy
power, which, though sometimes harsh and dry, was
always telling. Mr. Howe, as Lewson, played with
energy and effect, giving the passionate speeches with
a hearty vigour which was not lost upon the audience;
while Mr. Rogers, a very painstaking and often suc-
cessful actor, gave the small part of Jarvis with
unction and pathos. The applause was hearty and
unanimous at the fall of the curtain, and, after Mr.
and Mrs. Charles Kean, Mr. Creswick was summoned
to receive the congratulations of the audience.

ADELPHI THEATRE.
London, England, 1848-11-14

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.

Last night Mr. Bunn entered upon his recently
announced experiment of lowering the prices at this
e,tiblishment. It is evident that most things to be
attractive in these days of depression must be cheap,
and there i 3 no imaginable reason why theatres anti,
operas should be excluded from the general category ;
Mr. Bunn has, therefore, perhaps, done wisely in ad..ipt-
ing himself to the exigencies of the times. The perform-
ances consisted of the new opera of Haydie and the
ballet of the Peri. Miss Lucombe, who has recovered
from her indisposition, re-appeared in the character
of llaydee, and introduced, in place of the ordinary
.finale, a brilliant air of Mercadante, which she exe-
cuted with remarkable facility and neatness. In the
ballet Madlle. Plunkett danced with wonderful spirit
and agility, and was obliged to repeat the famous
saut perilleus, and a Spanish dance in the last scene,
which she executed with singular grace and anima-
tion. Both the opera and the ballet were received,
with enthusiasm throughout. The pit and galler'.es
were crowded to excesA, and the boxes were tolen..wy
well filled. A succession of such houses would soon
revive the fortunes of the theatre.

THE QUEEN IN THE MATTER OF DICKSON-PETITION

OF RIGHT.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, Rt the sitting of the Court
to-day, said that he was instructed in this case of a pe-
tition of right, in which his Learned Friend the Attor-
ney-General the other day made an application to re-
quest that his Lordship would be good enough to allow
the matter to be in the paper to-morrow, as there was
some difficulty in the case which it was necessary to
have the opinion of the Court upon.
The LORD CHANCELLOR at once acceded to the appli-
cation, and the case was ordered to be in the paper to-
morrow.

LORD v. THE COPPER MINES COMPANY.
The further arguments in this part-heard appeal from
the judgment of the Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce,
overruling a demurrer, were resumed this morning, and
occupied the Court the whole day. We gave a state-
Mont of the whole facts of the case yesterday.

FRANKFORT.

Nov. B.—A private dispatch of the Hamburgh
Borsenhalle, per electric telegraph, says
In this day's sitting of the National D►et, Roesler
interrogated the Ministry relative to the crossing of
the Prussian territory by Hungarian soldiers.
A motion by Engel, respecting the position of the
new intermediate Government, and of Schleswig-
Holstein, not being considered urgent, was referred
to the International Committee.

After the order of the day, the Diet entered upon
the general discussion of the 3d article of the prp-
ject of law relative to the army. The special dis-
cussion was adjourned till to-morrow.
Bussermann yesterday set out for Berlin, charged
with the commission from the Imperial Ministry. It
is said that these messages call upon the Prussian
Government to adopt energetic measures against the
anarchical frontier of Berlin, and the threatened inde-
pendence of the National Assembly.

CANADA.

Toronto papers, to the 14th of October inclusive,
have been received.

The Toronto Globe, of the 14th of October, con-
tains an important document, giving the revenue of
the province for the last two years.
The revenue of the year ending July 5, 1848,
amounts to 556,7481., while that ending July 6,
1847, was 540,2991., showing an increase in favour of
1848 above 16,0001. The last quarter, viz., from April 5
toJuly 5, 1848, contrasts unfavourably with the same
quarter in 1847, as there is a deficiency in 1348 of
nearly 49,0001. The deficiency on the Customs
alone amounts to 38,0001. It will be observed, how-
ever, by a glance at the figures, that the July
quarter of 1847 was unprecedentedly large, being
213,0001., and that the last July quarter is the
largest in the two years excepting the parallel quarter
and the October quarter of 1847.
We understand that in the quarter ending 10th
October, the Customs of Toronto exceed those of
the same quarter in 1847 by 1751., and there is alto
believed to be some increase at Hamilton. At.
Montreal there is reason to fear a considerable fal-
ling off. There is some cause of hope that this will
be the last deficient quarter, as the imports from
the United States, which arrive chiefly during the
last quarter of the year, are expected to be con-
siderable.

SHEEP STEALING, AND PROMPT CAPTURE..--.OH
various occasions within the last fortnight, about fifteen
or sixteen sheep have been stolen from the farm of Mr.
Park, Birkhillside, parish of Legerwood, Berwickshire.
On Friday afternoon Sergeant Falconer, county police,
Dalkeith, on obtaining information of the theft, disco•
vered that some of the sheep stolen on the evening of the
9th had been sold to a butcher there. Having obtained
a description of the person who sold them, who had
gone to Edinburgh, leaving his horse and cart at Gal-
lowshall Toll, the sergeant traced and apprehended him
the same sight.—Calecionian Mercury.

SCIENTIFIC OPINION,

Laboratory. Royal Polytechnic Institution,
October 21, 1848.

Sir,—After a careful examination of your New Gas Burners,
which I have tested in comparison with the best hitherto known. I
am compelled to acknowledge that your recent discovery is superior
to all others in economy, and in the purity of the flame produced
by it.
By the simple, yet truly scientific arrangements of your burners,
you have succeeded perfectly in obtaining the proper supply of air,
both in quantity and position ; thus, the flame is, at all tines, steady
and intensely luminous ; while even under suddenly increased pres-
sure, or during draughts of air, no smoke is given off.
I remain, Sir, yours faithfully,

PRUSSIA.

The second edition of the Cologne Gazette of Sa-
turday states that on the 10th the Ministry and the
Assembly of Berlin were both inflexible in adhering
to their previous decisions. The latter had resolved
upon an appeal to the people nem. dis. The troops,
however, advanced, surrounded the hall of sitting,
and precluded the entrance of the members—at the
same time that they allowed free egress. The repre-
sentatives of the people intended to resume their sit-
ting on the 10th. The Burgher Guard maintained,
in conjunction with the Assembly, an attitude of
passive resistance. The city was tranquil, and was
occupied by 15,000 of the troops of the line.
The Hamburgh Borsenhalle of the 10th has the
following:—
" Travellers who have arrived here this morning,
from Berlin, by railway, state that no breach of the
peace had taken place."
According to the statement of the Berliner Nach-
ridden the appointed meeting of the National As-
sembly was held on Thursday evening, under the Pre-
sidency of M. Von Murate, at the theatre, without
any interruption taking place. The meeting proceeded
to the order of the day, viz., the abolition of certain
dues and customs, without the substitution of others.
The Assembly then adjourned till nine o'clock this
morning.
According to a notice from the Vice-President
Philipps, the Presidium on Committee intended to
pass the night in turns in the Hall of Sitting.
On the motion of M. Von Berg, the thanks of the
Assembly were voted to President Von Nuride.
In the sitting of the Bth, the Deputies Dunker,
Wachsmuth, Bredt, and many other Members of the
Centre, presented a project of law securing the right
of the Priority Committee (committee of ten) to
meet that evening. It is directed against the assem-
blies of the people in the vicinity of the Hall 'of
Session, and that none shall take place within the
circuit of a thousand paces from the theatre. The
Deputies are to be secure from personal assault, and
all such assaults are to be punished with imprisonment
of from one to ten years.

The Deputy Befinsch, In consequence of three ad-
dresses from Silesia, made the following questions
1. Whether the Ministry had cognizance that
the Hungarian military had crossed the Prussian
frontiers ?

2. What steps they intended to take in regard
to these soldiers who had refused to fight in the ranks
of the enemy of the German people against the
conquered liberties of that people, the declared will
of its legal representatives ?
3. Whether it would permit these soldiers, now on
the Prussian territory, to return to Hungary, their
native home ?

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

- .
SIR,—Haring just discovered by an unexpected com-
munication from Dr. Fergusson, of Park-street, Grosve-
nor-square, that several impostors have made use of my
name in order to extort money from the nobility and
gentry, to enable me, as they assert, to erect parochial
kitchens for the poor of the metropolis against the en-
suing winter, I beg to acquaint you, Sir, and, conse-
quently, the nobility, gentry, and the public-in general,
that such persons have never been sent by me, and that
I am entirely ignorant of their importunities, which I
should consider a great imposition and annoyance to the
public.
I have only received subscriptions by the medium of
the public press; the name of each subscriber, as well as
the amount of their subscription, has been immediately
made public and deposited in the hands of a committee.
Several hundreds of circulars were forwarded, last
winter, to the nobility respecting my parochial kitchen
in Spitaltields, but all by post and franc°, leaving it en-
tirely to their option whether to subscribe or no. A
few subscriptions have also been received and booked at
my Philanthropic Picture Gallery, which names will be
added to my former list.
The only direct communication made on this subject
was lately to the celebrated prima donna Mdlle. Jenny
Lind, whose benevolence towards the unfortunate is only
equalled by her extraordinary talent. Any gentleman
or lady whose charity has been duped ;by impostors
would much oblige me by communicating the circum-
stance, as it might enable me to detect the party. Being
confident, Sir, of your wish for the prevention of fraud
on the public, I beg, as a great favour,.the insertion of
this letter in your important journal.
I am, Sir, yours most obediently,

RUSSIA.

According to the latest intelligence from Russia,
the extensive levy of recruits ordered by the Emperor
NICHOLAS had created much irritation among the no-
bility of the three Governments nearest to St. Peters-
burgh, who had resolved to resist, and engage in a
struggle with the military directed to bring the order
of the EMPEROR into execution. This event had de-
termined his Imperial MAJESTY to recal the troops
that had been sent to Poland. The cholera was raging
at Tarnpul, in Gallicia.

AQUATICS:

THE CUSTOM-HOUSE (EAST STAIRS) REGATTA.
The respectable waternie n belonging to these stairs,
yesterday contended for a new boat and other prizes,
subscribed for by the gentry and inhabitants residing in
the vicinity. The quay was thronged with spectators,
the river was crowded with boats.,and on no occasion of
a similar nature, do we ever rear ember to have seen so
much excitement as there was upon this. The distance
was twice round the Eel-chain and the Buoy, abreast of
St. Katherine Dock entrance, to the prize boat, oil the
stairs.

First heat--George Andrews (scarlet), 1; Isaac Con-
norton (dark blue), 2; George Bartlett (pink), 3. Scar-
let took the lead, kept it throughout, and won by a boat's
length.
Second heat—William Andrews (yellow), 1; William
Knight (light blue),:2; Christopher Brockwell (green), 3.
Light Blue took the lead, but was passed by Yellow op-
posite the 'rower, who won with s ome difficulty. It was
a very closely contested heat.
Third heat—This heat was .contended for by the
second and third men in the first and second heats: Wil-
liam
reen Knight (light blue), 1; 'Christopher Brockwell
(g), 2; Isaac Connorton (dark blue), 3; George
Bartlett (pink), 4. In this heat,' which was a spiritedly
rowed one, Light Blue took the I bad, but was passed by
Green off the Custom-house, in the first round. Dark
Blue then passed them both, but slipped off his thwart,
and was again headed by Light glue, who won after a
most severe struggle.
Fourth heat—The first man in each of the previous
heats then contended for e grand heat: William
Andrews (yellow), 1; George .Andrews (scarlet), 2;
William Knight (light blue), 3. The winner did as he
pleased, and won easily.

VENICE.

The Augsburg Gazette has accounts from Venice.
The situation of that city is still the tame. Admiral
ALBINI is said to have declared to the Austrian
officers sent to confer with his Excellency, that he
would not obey the orders given him until he had
received a direct command from Turin, and that,
until then, he would attack the Austrian fleet
wherever he encountered it. It is not doubted that
a secret understanding exists either between ALBINI
and the Venetian Government, or between ALBINI
and CHARLES ALBERT. Travellers who quitted
Venice on the 14th relate that considerable confu-
sion prevail,. The universal cry is "Death to the
Germans ! "

place on the 22d between the Austrians and a detach-
ment of the column of GARIBALDI, in the neighbour-
hood of Stabbio. The historical painter AzouNl was
killed in it The Austrians wounded were conveyed to

arms. There was another engagement on the 25th.
A considerable Austrian force having entered La-
vino, the Italians embarked on board a steamer on their
approach. The direction they took was not known.
At Tress and other places there were Italian detach-
