AINSWORTH'S MAGAZINE,
No. XLVIII.—JANUARY.

With Illustrations on Steel by GEORGE GRUIKSITANK.
" Ainsworth's Magazine' opens the New Year with great spirit.
The first paper Is a characteristic sketch by the Editor, Mr. Harrison
Ainsworth, entitled Sir Lionel Flamstead,' with an admirable il-
lustration by George Cruikshank. The Author of Handley Cross'
continues his Life and Writings of Nimrod,' to which he does ample
justice ; and the other papers are highly interesting —the serious and
the gay being happily intermingled."—Bell's Life, Jan. 4.

HA YMARKET THEATRE.

The legitimate drama—the melo-drama —ther
lyrical drama—the burlesque drama-, were all built
up gradually. Like .Minerva• from the head of
Jupiter, full-grown and armed at fill points, bath the
entomological drama sprung from the brain of Mr.
Charles Dickens. Every theatre in London has its
own Cricket Chirping on its own Hearth, and gives us
its own Fairy Tale of Home. Last evening was the
fit-A appearance of The Cricket on the _Hearth at the
Haymarket, and the following was the cast :
John Peerybingle
Tackleton Mr. Tilbury
Caleb Plummer
Stranger
Dot's Father
Dot
Bertha
Mrs. Fielding
May Fielding
Tilly Slowboy Mr. Buckstone
The Presence
Dot's Mother
Webster is by far the best John Peeryhingle who has
yet appeared. There is more heart and less violence
about his John Peerybingle than about that of any
other actor who has yet attempted the part. He ap-
pears to act so completely from the impulse of the
moment—to so completely identify himself with the
character—in other words, he is so accomplished an
artist, and understands so thoroughly the ars celare
art.-m, which is the very perfection of art, that he is
the very carrier that Dickens drew. Miss Fortescue's
Dot was exquisite ; the transitions from "gay to
grave" were beautiful, and nothing could exceed the
touching pathos of her bye-play in the third act, when
her husband is explaining his intentions as to her
future fate to Tackleton. Farren's Caleb Plummer
was a finished performance, as everything that Farren
does must be; it struck us, however, that it was some.
what too thin in every sense of the word.
Mrs. Seymour has never yet done anything
that can at all compare with her Bertha; there was a
quiet intensity of feeling, a depth of pathos about it
that went at once to the heart, and the tears and the
enthusiastic applause of her audience were her just
reward. Mrs. W. CliffOrd's Mrs. Fielding was the•
ne plus ultra of majestic dignity; and Mr. Clark, in
Dot's father, as usual, made a great part of a little
one by his admirable acting. Nothing could exceed
his hearty greeting of Mrs. Fielding in the last
scene—the only scene in which he appears. His
" How are you, Ma'am—glad to see you, Ma'am,"
was quite equal to his " Waiter—the snuff-box," in
Money. Buckstone's Tilly Slowboy was an imita-
tion of Wright's, but it did not come up to the great
original. Ile was not so well made up, and neither
in voice nor gesticulation does he so completely un-
sex himself as Wright. Buckstone bath an honest
throat, and in whatsoever character he may appear
he cannot but be Buckstone. This piece, which is
very well mounted, was announced by Farren for re-
petition amidst the unanimous applause of a well-
filled house.

. so:terui of the popularity of railways in this country as
sound media for permanent investment, than did its pre-
decessor, which was principally an exponent, not of indivi-
dual investment, but of the holdings by the representa-
tic.s of established lines in proposed tributaries or ex-
tension&
Probably no document ever exhibited railway enterprise
under a more imposing aspect, since, irrespective of the many
thousands who hold largely in established lines, we find, on
calcniation, that the return includes upwards of twenty thou-
sand subscribers to the lines and branches of last session
subscribilig to the extent of 21,386,703/. 6s. 4d. Nume-
rical reference connexion with every name are given to
the titles of the lines in which the parties are holders, show-
ing at the same time their extent of holding. Amongst
these names are to be recognised many of the leading nobi-
lity, the largest manufacturing firms, and names familiar to
most people, as connected with the commerce and literature
of the country. The juxta-position of names and descriptions
presents come remarkable contrasts, the same columns pre-
senting a combinatbis of peers and printers, vicars and vice-
admirals, spinsters and half-pays, M.P.'s and special pleaders,
upfeasors and cotton-spinners, gentlemen's cooks and Q.C.s,
attorney's clerks and college scouts, waiters at Lloyd's, re-
lieving officers and excisemen, barristers and butchers, Ca-
tholic priests and coachmen, editors and engineers, dairymen
and dyers, braziers, bankers, beer-sellers, and butlers, domes-
tic servants, footmen, and mail-guards, with a multitude of
other callings unrecorded in the book of trades.

THE T N HOURS BILL.

The death of Lord Wharncliffe, and the consequent
elevation of the Hon. John Stuart Wortley, M.P., to the
House of Peers, having created a vacancy in the repre-
sentation of the West Riding, the Central Short Time
Committees of Yorkshire resolved that the ten hours
question should be promptly brought before such candi-
date or candidates as. might offer themselves, and that
the secretary sould solicit an interview for a deputation
from each of the Short Time Committees of the manu-
facturing districts of Yorkshire.
On Saturday, Dec. 27, the Right Hon. Lord Viscount
Morpeth, having, in compliance with a numerously
signed requisition of the electors, offered himself as a
candidate, intimatinc, at the same time his intention of
declining to visit thee several large towns, as on former
occasions, the secretary of the Central Short Time Com-
mittee immediately proceeded to Castle Howard, whence
his Lordship's address to the electors was dated the day
previous, for the purpose of soliciting an interview for a
deputation from all the Short Time Cemmittees of the
West Riding on this important subject,
He arrived at Castle Howard on Saturday evening,
and was most courteously received by the Noble Lord,
who, in reply to his request on behalf of the Short Time
Committees, that Lord Morpeth would fix a day upon
which he might be pleased to meet the deputation from
those b.dies, expressed hi. readiness to meet them at
York. His Lordship at the same time stated, that if the
delegates thought proper to send him a written com-
munication, he would give it the same attention, and
save the deputies and himself the trouble of a long
journey. After some conversation on the factory
question, in which the Noble Lord showed considerable
interest for the improvement of the condition of the
working classes, the secretary returned, and on Monday
summoned a meeting of the delegates at the New Inn, at
Bradford, for Tuesda. , the 30th ult., which was presided
over by the Rev. W. -Morgan, 8.D., incumbent of Christ
Church.

After considerable discussion it was decided that Lord
Morpeth's suggestion should be acted upon, and the
following memorial was unanimously adopted, to which
his Lordship's answer was received on Monday :
London, England, 1846-01-07

THAMES.

Patrick Pigott and John Sullivan coal-whippers, were
charged with assaulting George Brown, 164, and Michael
Dempsey, 247, police-constables of the K division.

Evidence having been received,

The prisoners, by the advice of Mr. Pelham, said they
should reserve their defence till they got before a jury.
Mr. BRODERIP said, according to the evidence, a most
cowardly assault had been committed on the policemen
in the execution of their duty, and it was too serious a
case for him to dispose of summarily. He committed
the prisoners, in default of bail, for trial at the sessions.
Charles Williams, a seaman, was charged with cut-
ting and wounding William Hanney, a man-of-war's-
man, and also assaulting Margaret Heaney, his wife.
The case was proved, and ON prisoner was committed
for trial for assaulting and wounding Heaney, and also
for the assault on his wife.
GREEN WI CH.

John Wilson, cook on board the ship Masden, of
Stockton.upon-Tees, Durham, was charged with stealing
a watch, appendages, and eight sovereigns, the property
of Captain Stowell, his employer.
Sergeant Booth said the prisoner, on giving himself
up, made a voluntary confession that he had left the ship
in the Pool, and had taken from the master's cabin the
watch and eight sovereigns, and that subsequently he
was induced to give himself up to the police, as his con-
duct weighed so heavily on his mind. Witness had
since seen the captain, who stated that he missed fifteen
sovereigns as well as his watch, &c.; and he had no
doubt the prisoner had stolen the whole of it. The
captain had promised to be in attendance to prosecute,
but had not made his appearance.
Mr. JEREMY said, under the circumstances he should
remand the prisoner until this day, when the case could
be gone into. In the meantime a summons would issue
for the captain's attendance. The prisoner was accord-
ingly remanded. _ _

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHAN GE-WEDNESDAY.
Since Monday the arrivals of English Wheat, coastwise as
well as by land carriage and sample, have been again limited,
and of very middling quality; yet the demand for that
article to-day was by no means active, at about
previous quotations. There was rather more inquiry
for the finest qualities of free Foreign Wheat, but at
no more money. In Corn under lock, scarcely a
speculative sale took place. The best Malting Barley was
again scarce, and quite as dear. Grinding and distilling
sorts, which formed the bulk of the receipts, hung heavily
on hand. The Malt trade rated tolerably steady, and prices
were well supported. In Oats a full average business was
doing, at late rates. Beans, Peas, and Flour commanded
very little attention.

BOW-STREET.--(THIS DAY.)

Two boys of 15 to 16 years of age, named O'Leary
and Donovan, were charged with stealing a " sleeved
waistcoat," the proFerty of Charles Sairen, a navigator,
employed upon the sewerage repairs now going on in
Charlotte-street, Bedford-square.
It appeared that the prisoners were observed dodging
about by one of the navigators who was at work at the
sewers, and that, having suspicions of their object, he
watched them, and saw O'Leary take up the waistcoat
(which had been left with some other waistcoats, coats,
&c., belonging to the workmen), and run away with it.
He ran after him, and saw him pass it to Donovan. He
caught them both, and gave them into custody. •
Charles Sairen, the owner of the waistcoat, identified
it as his property.
The prisoners being asked if they bad anything to sa,

iswered sullenly that they had m•t.
They were committed for trial.

MA RLBRO'-STREET.-(THIS DA V.)
Edward James Dell, a young man of shabby genteel
appearance, who was described on the police charge-
sheet as having "as place of abode," was charged with
stealing two shawls from the shop of Mr. William Stunt,
of No. 261, Oxford-street, hosier, under the following
circumstances:—
The prosecutor stated that between nine and ten
o'clock last night the prisoner ran into his shop, and
snatching up from off the c.unter the property in qut.s-
don, rushed into the street and ran off. He was pur-
sued by one of the shopmen, and on his (the prosecu-
tor's) going out directly afterwards he found the shawls
the prisoner had taken lying on the footway pavement
opposite to the next house.
The prosecutor's shopman stated, that on seeing the
prisoner run out of the shop with the shawls in his
hand he pursued him, culling, Stop thief." He threw
threw down the shawls as he run. He (witness), after
following him through several streets, came up with him
in Regent-street, and gave him into the custody of the
police. On the way to the station-house, he said he
hoped the owner of the shawls would not prosecute him.
Mr. MALTBY (to the prisoner)—You have- heard the
charge against you, do you wish to say anything in
answer to it ?
Prisoner (despondingly)—No, Sir, its all true that is
said against me.—He was committed for trial.

*ions in its disclosures, and furnishing, in fact, far better
criteria of the popularity of railways in this country as
sound media for permanent investment, than did its pre-
deceesor, which was principally an exponent, not of indivi-
dual investment, but of the holdings by the representa-
tives of established lines in proposed tributaries or ex-
tensions.

Probably no document ever exhibited railway enterprise
under a more imposing aspect, since, irrespective of the many
tlhousands who hold largely in established lines, we find. on
calculation, that the return includes upwards of twenty a on-
sand subscribers to the lines and branches of last session
alone, subsc4ribing to the extent of 21,386,703/.65. 44. Nume-
rical references in connexion with every name are given to
the titles of the lines in which the parties are holders, show-
ing at the same time their extent of holding. Amongst
these names are to be recognised many of the leading nobi-
lity, the largest manufacturing firms, and names familiar to
most people, as connected with the coramerct and literature
of the country. The juxta-position nanva and descriptions
presents some remarkable contrsnts, the same columns pre-
senting a combination of peers and printers, vicars and vice-
admirals, spinsters and lto!,f-psys, M.P.'s and special pleaders,
professors and cotton-P;pinners, gentlemen's cooks and Q.C.s,
attorney's clerks and college scouts, waiters at Lloyd's, re-
lieving officers and excisemen, barristers and butchers, Ca-
tholic priests and coachmen, editors and engineers, dairymen
and dyers, braziers, bankers, beer-sellers, and butlers, domes-

other callings unrecorded in the book of trades.

On Tuesday the General Quarter-Sessions for the

Lovelace, Lord-Lieutenant for the county ; Messrs.

Members for the county, and Benjamin Hawes, Esq.,
M.P. for Lambeth.
Returns and reports were made by the governors, sur-

of correction in the county, and their present state, but
they contained nothing of a peculiar nature, or calling
forth any particular observations from the Bench. The

SECOND ED ITION

ii,r4vl:l ,Vint
LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1846.

It is gratifying to observe that the Repeal Associ-
ation is at present performing an eminent practical
service to Ireland in these days of her tribulation.
Nearly every factious allusion, and all invidious re-
vivals of party squabbling, are, during this period of
scarcity and national destitution, abandoned. The
purpose of the Association scarcely appears to be so
much the repetition of that most fallacious and illu-
sory of watchwords " Repeal," as the consideration
of the necessities of the peasantry, and the avowal of
an anxiety to ameliorate the distresses of the dejected
million. What a noble contrast is this to the vapour-
ing, and the egregious bombast of the physical force
advocates ! While the latter are brooding over the
fictitious insolence of the Sassenachs, and nurturing
a diseased passion for vengeance, the admirers
of the moral force movement are striving
by all reasonable
persuasions to expdite the salutary exertions of the Government, to stimu-
late the patriotism of the landlord interest, and to al-
leviate, by every rational suggestion, the sufferings
inflicted upon their beloved county y
by the inscrug-
table dispensations of DIVINE Paovinzscr. A
iloionai committee of Irish landowners has been
sugges(ed as the most probable means of renderin
the improvement of the condition of the destitutge
multitude a permanent and effectual benefaction. It
has been observed, and observed with justice, that
such a congregation of irtituential men, assembled

THE ST. PANCRAS POOR.

On Monday afternoon a vestry meeting of the parish of
St. Pancras took place at the rooms in Gordon-square,
for the purpose of adopting some measures for the
amelioration of the condition of the poor. The chair
was occupied by the Rev. Thomas Dale, M.A., vicar of
the parish.
Mr. Churchwarden HOWARTH proposed, in a length-
ened and elaborate speech, the following resolution :
" That the vestrymen present avail themselves of the
opportunity offered by the attendance of the Rev. T.
Dale, M.A., vicar of this parish, in vestry this day, to
make known to him the satisfaction with which they
regard his appointment to the high and important office
which he fills in this extensive and populous parish; and
whilst they are well assured that he will zealously and
efficiently discharge all the spiritual duties of his office,
they are disposed to believe that he will cordially support
that beneficial system of local self-government now esta-
blished in this parish, in connexion with the election of
vestrymen freely chosen by and responsible to the whole
body of rate-payers.
The resolution having been carried nem. con.,
The CHAIRMAN said he could not receive this mark
of their kind confidence without endeavouring to ac-
knowledge it. He felt that the position which he had
the honour of occupying involved duties of a most ar-
duous and responsible character —he hoped they would
allow him at all times to throw himself upon their can •
dour and good intention—he had come amongst them
without any previous knowledge of the affairs of the
parish, but he found them a body of gentlemen to whom
the management of those affairs were entrusted. With
regard to the principles of self-government he could not
but admit that it was the only just and fair government.
--(Much cheering.) They were perhaps aware
that he was not there merely from his own
choice; the act of the Legislature which had consti-
tuted them for the management of parochial matters
had likewise placed him there, and it afforded him great
encouragement to be amongst a body of gentlemen by
whom he had been so kindly received. He regretted to
find the ecclesiastical of of the parish in so unsatis-
factory a state. All, however, that he would say at
present on the subject was, that he trusted to bring a
scheme for the promotion of the spiritual interests of the
parish, and he hoped he should receive the support of all
those who wished well for the spiritual and temporal
welfare of the parish.—(Eicar.) They must do all in'
their power to ameliorate the condition of the poor of.
that parish, and he (the Chairman) spoke necessarily as
one altogether untried, but he had left a parish in per-
fect peace which he found in a state of division and irre-
gulari4,. After seine further remarks the Rev. Chair-
man resumed his seat amidst much cheering.
After some further discussion the meeting adjourned.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1846.

Queen MARIA DA GLORIA of Portugal has been
duped into a proceeding most prejudicial to the
liberties of her subjects and to the stabilty of her im-
perial influence. Like Queen ISABELLA 11. of Spain,
her Portuguese MAJESTY has been cajoled into a
most unpopular policy ; like the Spanish SOVEREIGN,
Queen MARIA has been entrapped in the pitfalls of
French diplomacy. What the marriage of his Royal
Highness the Duc DE 11IONTPErSIER has done for
Spain the expulsion of the PALMELLA Administration
has done for Portugal. The independence of each
country has been filched from it by an unconstitutional
intervention ; the entire Peninsula is now nothing
better than an additional spot for the vassalage of
GUIZOT and BRESSON to flourish and multiply.
There cannot be a moment's question that the Cabinet
of the Tuileries is implicated in the late 'Ministerial
transpositions at Lisbon, and that it is implicated
therein most intimately and systematically. The
programme of the new Administration is of itself a
sufficient evidence upon that particular, and that evi-
dence is not so much in the appointments already an-
nounced, as in the startling vacancy which is ob-
servable in the Ministry. There is Farimuo for
the administration of Justice ; there is POE..
TUG AL for the Marine ; there is OLIVEIRA
for the Interior, and temporarily for Finance; there
is SALDANH A as Minister of War and President of
the Council ; but where is the holder of the Foreign
portfolio ? Who is nominated to one of the mos
responsible of all Ministerial dikes in the preseni
dubious state of European, and especially of Pepin.
sular affairs ? Why, it would appear that this de-
partment is reserved for the Viscount CARREIRA,
the Portuguese Ambassadcr in the French metropolis.
Is not that a tolerably conclusive testimony that the
same wily diplomatists as have recently bartered away
the integrity of the Spanish constitution for the
sake of a superfluous bridegroom, have likewise been
the principal, though secret, instigators of the recent
catastrophe at Lisbon ? Is it not another instance of
that passion fur foreign interference which has latterly
reigned predominant in the Council of Louis
PHILIPPE ? IS it not another and most lamentable
proof that the Government of the Citizen KlNG—the
hero of the three days—the constitutionaltg
by
y and all
monarch
of 1830—the crowned patriot of Jul

liberal
machi-
nations of ministerial guile to subvert the
iberal.late
;in-
stitutions of surrounding nations and
toncipalanitieis
annihilate
the independence of the continental
principalities?
We are living in an epoch as dissimilar from all
preceding ones, politically as it is scientifically and
mechanically. Where monarchs had failed when
sustained by all the potency of allied ambition, or
when supported by military prowess and an almost
miraculous generalship, a successor is succeeding
through the assistance merely of consummate cunning

who hr•re made an effort to reach him, which ho was
unable to accomplish, being out paced, Sullivan winning
