GARRICK THEATRE.

The Cricket on the Hearth seems to be as popular in
the east as in the west, if we judge from the enthusiasm
with which it was received by a Garrick audience last
evening. The different characters were well sustained.
Mr. C. J. Bird as John Peerybingle was very respectable,
and Mrs. R. Barnett as Dot was excellent. Miss F.
Harcourt displayed much pathos as Bertha the blind girl,
and Miss Yates as Tilly Slowboy, was exceedingly hu-
mourous and effective. Altogether the piece was ex-
ceedingly well acted and it will no doubt have a run.

SOUTHWARK.

Cha►les Perryman and William Hardwick, two well-
dressed young men, were placed at the bar, charged
with attempting to rob Captain Randall of a gold watch
in Horsemonger-lane, and with having assaulted a po-
liceman in his efforts to secure them.

Captain Randall stated that as he was standing near
the corner of Swan-street, at half-past ten o'clock that
morning, witnessing the execution of Quennell, the two
prisoners made the attempt to rob him of his watch,
They rushed upon him in the crowd, and one of them
(Perryman) made three attempts to pull the watch out
of his fob, but did not accomplish it, owing to the chain
having been twisted firmly round his brace. He (com-
plainant) called for the police, and 272 M, coming to the
spot, took the prisoners into custody, in doing which one
of them struck him a violent blow in the face, and both
of them endeavoured to escape.
Another gentleman, who was present at the execution
near the same spot, said that he was robbed of his watch,
but, owing to the pressure of the crowd, he could not un-
dertake to identify the parties.
Evidence was given of the previously bad characters
of the prisoners, one of whom, Perryman, had been con-
victed at the Old Bailey and sentenced to be transported,
which was afterwards commuted into imprisonment.
Mr. COTTINGUAN said that the dreadful spectacle of an
execution did not prevent the prisoners from exercising
their vocation even under the very gallows; that it was
fortunate for them they had not effected the robbery,
for if they had he would assuredly have comtnitred them
for trial, and as the sessions were then sitting, probably
they would have been tried, convicted, and sentenced to
be transported. He should wave the circumstances,
and commit the prisoners for three months each to the
House of Correction.

The 'MAGISTRATE, addressing Captain Randall,
expressed his astonishment that a man in his situation
of life should have been a spectator of such a scene as
an execution, awl advised him in future to remain at
home.

(In connexion with the Lynn and Ely, Ely and Huntingdon, and

At a public meeting of the inhabitants of the town of Sohant and
the neizhbourhood, held at Soham on Friday, 2d January, 1846, for
the purpose of taking into consideration the subject of the proposed
lines of railway through Soham and the adjoining parishes,
JOHN DOBEDE, Esq., in the Chair,
It was moved by 3lr. Husrwics, seconded by MT. KING, and resolved

(with one dissentient voice),
That the statements made in reference to the proposed Ely and
Bury St. Edmunds' Line of Railway, .via Mildenhall (in connexion
with the Lynn and Ely Railway). are satisfactory, and this meeting
desires to record its sense of the desire manifested on the part of the
promoters to consult the feelings end wishes of the inhabitants of
this district in the formation of the line.
It was moved by Mr. SMITH, seconded by Mr. HATFIELD, and re-
solved (with one dissentient voice),
That it is the opinion of this meeting that the proposed extension
of the Ipswich and Bury St. Edmunds' Railway from Bury, via
Kentford, to Ely, is ill adapted to meet the wants either of the agri-
cultural or commercial interests of th's town and neighbourhood, but
that the line proposed from Ely to Bury, by .way of Mildenhall, will
be highly advantageous to the district, and this meeting pledges itself
to use its utmost exertions to render all possible support to this line.
It was moved by Mr. JOHNSON, seconded by Mr. ADDISON, and

DUBLIN ADDRESS.

To the Address of the Lord Mayor and Corporation
of the City of Dublin, presented to her Most Gracious
Majesty on Saturday, at Windsor Palace, published by
us yesterday, her Majesty was pleased to return the
following reply:—
" I have heard with pain the statement which you
have thought it necessary to address to me respecting
the extreme poverty of a portion of my Irish subjects,
and the aggravation of their distress which you antici-
pate, from a deficiency of food, in the present year.
" The welfare ,and prosperity of Ireland are objects of
my constant care,and earnest solicitude; and the failure
of the last potato crop, and its apprehended consequences,
have not escaped my attention.
" I have directed precautions to be taken which may,
I trust, alleviate the evils unavoidably attendant on this
calamity, and I have summoned Parliament to meet on
an early day.

" I look With confidence to the advice which I shall
receive from the united council of the realm, and I shall
rejoice if measures can be devised which, under the
blessing of Divine Providence, may relieve the wants of
my Irish people,,may improve their condition, and insure
their future happiness and contentment."

auction duties, and all export duties, were abolished,
and consequently no further aid to the finances of the
country is derived from any of these sources. The
great test of the true condition of the masses is the
Excise, and under this we are gratified to find an
increase of 107,897/, as compared with the closing
quarter of 1844-5. In the Stamps department there is
also an increase of 190,744/. on the quarter, and on the
year of 540,7241. Another important branch in which
there is a large increase, is that of " Miscellaneous," the
augmentation being 360.2811. on the quarter, and
569,611/ on the year. Under the head of Post-office
there is likewise an increase of 100.5561., which is all
the more gratifying as indicative equally of the growing
prosperity of our commerce, and of the extension of
mental pursuits. The total results give a decrease on the
year of 760,016/, but an increase on the quarter of
95,105/. This result would have been gratifying under
any circumstances, but it is especially encouraging, as
well as surprising, when it is remembered that so many
taxes were entirely abolished last session. It demon-
strably proves that never were the commerce and the
finances of the country established on more satisfacto] y
bases than they are at present. We cordially congratu-
late the country on this most cheering aspect of matters,
and hope it will prove to be permanent.

During the whole of the day the cold in this Court
Wft3 most intense—the temperature differing only in a
slight degree from that of the external atmosphere. Mr.
Commissioner Bullock and Sir C. Marshall complained
of it, and requested that heated air might be forced into
the Court, but in spite of their request no diff.rence in
the temperature was effected. Hot and cold al, are, or
should be, alternately forced into the Court through per-
forated zinc plates placed under the seats, but these
orifices are only the means of conveying a thorough
draught of cold air upon the person of every one who is
compelled by business to occupy a seat. The system of
ventilation is not only inefficient but mischievous, and
complaints are almost daily made during the sitting of
the Court.

NEW LONDON MAGAZINE.

Although this magazine has only reached its fifth
number, it has already acquired for itself a character
peculiarly and exclusively its own, namely, that of a
very delightful conversational, chatty, generous-
spirited periodical. Its tone is genial, its style is
popular, its articles are all entertaining, and after the
perusal of a number the reader will feel on better
terms with himself and everybody else than when he
commenced. Among the many able contributors to
its pages, we may mention the familiar names of
Albert Smith, Shelton Mackenzie, E. L. Blanchard,
and J. H. Stocqueler, in themselves a guarantee of
amusement. The most characteristic papers in the
present number, are those entitled " A New Year,"
"A Dv's Sunshine in Winter," and "Twelfth-
Night Retrospections " all of which are redolent of
genuine mirth and kind-heartedness, besides being as
seasonable as skating and frost-bitten noses. These,
with a clever leaf "From the Note-book of a Coro-
ner, " a shrewd narrative of how " Zedekiah Wish-
well" was "always in a fix," and a simple story
about a miller's daughter, by Zachary e
miscellany.GobbletoP

THE THEOLOGIAA. No. I.
In external appearance, in its general arrangements,
and in the healthiness of its literary tone, The Theo-
logian bears a very considerable resemblance to the
average body of quarterlies, and does credit at the
same tune to its editor, its publisher, and its contri-
butors. As an exponent of a certain class of religious
opinions,
it possesses much candour and independence,
while it opposes doctrines of a contrary tendency with
a liberality and a gentlemanly bearing which, in these
somewhat stormy times of controversy, are very de-
lightful to encounter. The present number, which
is the commencement of a new series, contains matter
of peculiar interest just now, embracing some sen-
sible articles on "Mr. Newman," "The Ronge
Movement," and especially one headed " The Church's
Course in her Present Trials." Besides this, a host of
searching and elaborate reviews altogether make up
a number that augurs well for the future prosperity
of the nublication.

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.
