DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—We remember no season
respecting the commencement of which so great an in-
terest has been excited as on the present occasion. A
newly-decorated theatre, a new ballet, with a new set of
'dancers, a new drop scene, and various other novelties,
are certainly attractions of the very highest order, and
'e do not wonder that people are flocking to secure seats
for such an interesting event. It is most gratifying to
knowthat the private boxes and stalls are mostly secured
by some of our principal noble families.
The Gallery in Leicester-square, so well known
to our readers as being occupied by the late talented
!Liss Linwood, is, we are informed, about being opened

Ivans. While we condemn, as public journalists, any-
thing with the least approach to an immoral tendency,
Ze feel disposed to advocate the present exhibition,
Rowing it to be tinier the patronage of many influential
members of the Royal Academy. We would advise the
blic to go and judge for themselves, as we feel confi-
dent their expectations will be more than realised.

on and Royal Academy models. Monday week is an-

lerning a notice was posted at the General Post-office,
stl
t. Martin's-le-Grand, that her Majesty's ship Bulldog,
for Lisbon and the Cape of Good Hope, with letters,

NE TV COURT.

(Before Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK and Mr. Alderman

FARE BROTHER.)
James Downes, a plumber, was convicted of stealing
81bs. of lead, the property of Thomas Fossey, his master,
and sentenced 'to one month's imprisonment and hard
labour.

Edward Unwin, a labourer, was indicted, with a per-
son named George Fisher, who pleaded guilty, with steal-
ing 2,000 bricks and 6 loads of sand, of the value of 61.,
the property of George Banson and Edwin Gwyther,
and Daniel Stammers was indicted with feloniously re-
ceiving the same, well knowing them to be stolen.
Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Robinson conducted the case for
the prosecution ; and Mr. Payne, Mr. Ballantyne, and
Mr. Iluddlestone defended the prisoners.
From the statements of counsel, and the evidence ad-
duced, it appeared that the prosecutors were contractors
for certain work, now in progress in the neighbourhood
of Camden-town, by the London and North• Western
Railway Company; that the prisoner Stammers was
the foreman, and one of the members of a society
called the " Friends of Industry," who were
erecting houses in the same neighbourhood,
and the prisoners, Fisher and Unwin, were employed as
carters to Perkins and Co., who had contracted to cart
the bricks to the works of the prosecutors. It appeared
that the prisoners, Fisher and Unwin, instead of taking
the bricks to the works of the prosecutors, took
them to the building of the Friends of Industry, and left
them there. Upon Stammers being told that the bricks
were stolen property, he said he did not know that, that
he bad bought them honestly; and told the party who
stated they were stolen that he had better mind his owh
business.

Mr. Payne addressed the jury on behalf of the pri-
soner Unwin, and Mr. Ballantyne for Stammers, con-
tending that no case had been made against either of
them.

Several respectable witnesses gave Stammers an excel-
lent character, and stated that he was an honest and
hard working man. Some of the witnesses had known
him for upwards of 20 years.
One witness gave Unwin a good character.

Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK" summed up, and
The jury, after some consultation, found the prisoners
Stammers and Unwin Not Guilty.
Fisher was then again indicted with stealing several
loads of sand, and to this indictment he also pleaded
Guilty ; and Stammers was indicted with receiving it,
knowing it to be stolen.
The jury also Acquitted the prisoner Stammers on this
charge.
Mr. Commissioner BULLOCK sentenced the prisoner
Fisher, who has a wife and three children, to eight
months' imprisonment and hard labour.

FLANDERS MAIL.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 25.—The grand military fête at-
tracted an immense concourse of persons on the espla-
nade and near the gate of Namur. Her Majesty the
Queen, the Duke and Duchess of Cobourg, the Duke of
Brabant, the Count of Flanders, and the Princess Char-
lotte were present at the fete.
The two bas-reliefs which will be placed on the pedes-
tal of the monument in the Place des Martyrs were ex-
hibited; one represents the benediction of the victims
interred there, and the other reprsents Belgium distri-
buting crowns to the glorious defenders.
BRUSSELS, SEPT. 26.—The opening of the branch of
the canal of the Compigne was celebrated with great
pomp on the 21st. On no former occasion was so ani-
mated a spectacle witnessed in this city. Above 10,000
strangers, among whom were a great proportion of
Dutch, were present at the fete. All the streets were
planted with evergreens, ornamented with flags inter-
spersed with flowers and drapery, and almost all the
horses were decorated with the national colours and
streamers. The Burgomaster made a long oration at
the opening of the canal, to which the Minister of the
Interior made an appropriate afid very gratifying reply.
ANTWERP, SEPT. 25.—For a long time we have not
had so great a scarcity in the arrival of provisions from
the colonies. The want of coffee especially is every-
where beginning to be felt. So great has been the
falling off in the quantity of this article, that the greater
part of the orders still remain unexecuted. They are
expecting the arrival of several ships from Flushing
to revive the drooping trade in this particular.
Our corn market was pretty well supplied to-day, in
regard to the minimum quantity generally exposed for
sale. Not much business however was done, especially
considering emergencies of the farmers. Rye was sold
at 17.13f1. to 18.1313. of Brabant; wheat, 2011. to 21.176.
per scale of 1 per tolitre ; 2211. were asked for wheat
of the finest quality, and 19fl. for rye. There was a
large supply of potatoes in the market, the prices were
the same as last week.

ANTWERP, SEPT. 26.—The leading question which
at this moment engrosses the public mind is that of
pauperism. Every topic whether polemics, politics, or
commerce, bears upon this point.
KIEL, SEPT. 16.—Yesterday afternoon her Majesty
passed by Kiel; she endeavoured to avoid the city, but
was met at the Breetzer convent, at the boundary of the
Kiel territory, by Count Reventlow Preetz, and the
Burgomaster. Although the Queen had promised to
visit the former more than twelve months since, she de-
clined his reiterated invitation under the present cir-
cumstances. The Burgomaster briefly alluded to the
unhappy state of the country, and entreated her favour-
able intermission with the King. Her Majesty was very
loudly cheered at her departure.
VIENNA, SEPT. IL—Prince Luitfrold, of Bavaria,
arrived here from Munich the day before yesterday, and
purposes to remain here some days to witness several
manoeuvres.

The arrival of the Prince of Salerno is fixed for the
25th inst. The Archduchess Sophia is expected in the
course of the day, and her Majesty the Empress-Mother
will come in a few days ; and the Archduchess Maria
Louisa and the Prince of Prussia are expected here on
the 24th.

TYROL.—The King of the Belgians, who, as we stated
before, bas been ordered to drink goats' milk in the
Tyrol, will probably remain about three weeks in the
beautiful district of Meran. His Majesty is travelling
in the strictest incognito under the title of Count
d'Ardennes.

MEETING OF PARLIAMENT.—It is very generally
believed about the Houses of Lords and Commons, and
at the west end of the town, that Parliament will meet
for the dispatch of business on Wednesday, the 4th of
November next, the day to which it now stands pro-
rogued.
BURSTING OF A WATER•PIPE.—The inhabitants
of Acton-green were alarmed, on Saturday, by the burst-
ing of one of the large water-pipes which convey water
from the Brentford water-works to the Regent's-park
and neighbourhood. The noise was that of a frightful
explosion, and a large rent seven feet in length was made
in the ground above the pipe. The accident is supposed
to have been caused by the force with which the large
volume of water is impelled through the pipe.

. .
A MAN FOUND WITH THE BODY OF A DEAD
WOMAN IN His ARMS.—A tall man, named James
Butler, was brought before the Mayor, George Good-
man, Esq., and Thomas Benyon, Esq., at the Leeds
Court-house, on Tuesday, to answer to a charge of hav-
ing been found in the street with the body of a dead
woman in his arms. Policeman Joseph Lees said that
about twenty minutes past twelve on the preceding night
he was passing along York-street, and found the prisoner
sitting upon a step with a woman beside him, on whose
shoulder he was resting his left arm, and was holding
one of her hands in his own. The woman was then
quite dead. Witness had previously seen them together
twice the same night in Call-land Kirkgate, and had
ordered them out of the street, owing to the disorderly
conduct of the deceased female. The prisoner, on being
asked by the Mayor to give some account of the matter,
said he met the young woman (deceased) a little after
dark. They had two pints of beer together, one of
which she paid for and he for the other. When sent from
Kirkgate by the policeman they went down Marsh-lane
to the bottom end of York-street. Just as they were
passing by a door she said she felt ill, and at that
moment she would have fallen deadly on the flags,
had he not prevented her and kept her in his arms.
He thought she was in a fit, and he put his arm under
her neck and took hold of her hand, and held her in
that position until the policeman came. A woman who
had been to them previously said sho was in a fit. Police-
man Rycroft said he saw them together in the position
described, and went over the street to them. The woman
appeared to be in a fit. Witness told them they had
better go home, and took hold of one side of the woman,
and the prisoner took bold of the other, in order to hold
her up. But it was of no use. Witness also went for a
glass of water, but that was of no use. The Mayor
said that he did not see that the prisoner need be kept
in custody. Mr. James said Mr. Price, surgeon, had
examined the body of the woman. At present he could
not say there was anything amiss with her. Prisoner—
lam a stranger; I never was in Leeds before. The
Mayor—What are you? Prisoner—l have been in the
army. The Mayor—You will be remanded until the
inquest on the body of the deceased is over. The pri-
soner was then removed from the dock. An inquest
was held on the body of the deceased female on Wed-
nesday: morning, at the Leeds Court-house, before J.
Blackburn, Esq., the Leeds borough coroner. It trans-
pired that her name was Caroline Clarke, and her age
from 25 to 26. She was from the neighbourhood of
London, and had for some time cohabited with a travel-
ling conjurer, at a house in Marsh-lane. In accordance
with the evidence of the surgeon, the jury returned a
verdict of "Died of an affection of the heart." The
man who was found with her was of course liberated.
BROADLANDS.—Viscount and Viscountess Palmer-
ston arrived at their seat near Romney, Hants, from visit-
ing her Majesty, at Windsor Castle, on Saturday last.
Lord and Lady Ashley were to arrive on a visit to the
Noble Viscount and Viscountess on Saturday from Hyde,
Isle of Wight.
There have never been but three Lord Chan-
cellors of Ireland who were natives of that country.
The first was the celebrated Fitzgibbon, the first Earl
of Clare ; the second the equally celebrated and still
living Lord Plunkett ; and the present Chancellor, Mr.
Maziere Brady.
RE-PAVING CIIEAPSIDE WITHOUT A STOPPAGE.—
On Saturday orders were issued from the office of the
Commissioners of Sewers for the re-paving of Cheapido
with stone instead of wood. This order was given in
consequence of the commissioners believing the wood
pavement would not stand throughout the winter, from
the fact of a portion of it having floated during the
storm of the Ist of August. To prevent interruption to
business, the contractor will finish one side of the street
before he commences work on the other, so that vehicles
will be able to pass along one side of the street in the
same manner as usual. It is calculated that the re-paving
will occupy five weeks.

THE POTATO DISEASE.—Many of the farmers in
Dorsetshire have commenced the autumn planting of
potatoes, in accordance with the recommendation of
many agriculturists and chemists, who assert that this is
the best, if not the only method, of checking the prevail-
ing disease.
FIRE AT PORT GLASGOW.—We are informed by
a passenger who came up by the last train from
Greenock, that a large ship, from which a cargo of hemp
was disloading, had taken fire at Port-Glasgow harbour,
that the masts were burned down and the hull on fire, and
that part of the sheds had been destroyed.— Glasgow Con-
stitutional.
