ADELPHI THEATRE.

A glorious burlesque (from the prolific pen of Selby) on Le
Jugement de Paris, and Le Pas des Ddesscs, was produced at
the Adelphi last night, under the title of The Judgment of
Paris, or The Pas de Pippins. The getting up is magnificent,
the scenery and costumes splendid, and the burlesque itself
full of broad fun. Ryan, Paul Bedford, and Wright are the
three goddesses. Glorious Paul, as Juno, appears riding on
a peacock, and is turned round a la Keller, on a pedestal,
the spread tail of the peacock appearing as
though it were part of Juno's proper person; and Wright,
as Venus, rises from the sea, after the most
approved manner of the Hall of Rome. The Pas de Pippins
was superb; Wright's imitation of Taglioni was most close,
and at the same time most ludicrous. He was encored as a
matter of course, and his mincing and diesse-like manner
of advancibg towards the orchestra, for the purpose of direeting
the conductor when and where to recommence the music, was
most rich caricature, and elicited roars of laughter. Then the
bouquets were showered in such profusion that Mercury was
obliged tolgather them up,and trundle them off in awheelbarrow,
and at the conclusion there was a second shower, which the
goddesses gathered into their aprons. The costumes were
grotesquely classical, all save that of Jupiter, who appeared
as Young England, in blue dress-coat and metal buttons, white
satin waistcoat, black silk stockings, and smalls. The bill offare
fur the supper of the gods—furnished by Soyer, of course— •
was full of fun. Some of the best jokes, howgver, were too
recherché for the audience; for instance, Alouettes ( Larks)
ala Waterford, passed unnoticed. The dances are admirably
arranged; and some of them, the dance of the houris for instance,
exceedingly graceful ; and one or two beautiful melodies are
introduced, which are tastefully sung by Miss Marian Taylor.
This burlesque is a palpable hit—as great a hit as the original.
The House was crowded to suffocation, and will continue to
be so every night that the Judgment of Paris is acted, for
months to come.

LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 18, 1846.

On Saturday the British Possessions Bill was read
a third time in the Commons, and passed. Previous,
however, to this consummation of the free-trade
colonial policy, Lord G. BENTINCK endeavoured to
retard the measure by another of those vexatious
amendments for the employment of which the pro-
tectionist representatives have acquired such an un-
enviable notoriety. As a testimony of the utter
futility of these intnruptlons, we may instance the
division by which the proposition of the Noble
Member for Lynn—namely, that the Bill" should be
read a third time that day three months"—was nega-
tived. A majority of thirty-nine in a House of
merely fifty-five testified the impatience of Perna-
anent under this most irksome, because most impotent
system of opposition. We have characterised Lord
G. BENTINCeS amendment as vexatious, and any one
possessing little better than a pudding for brains
would, on a dispassionate perusal of the dis-
cussion which was evoked by that amend-
ment, feel himself compelled to acknowledge
it to be peculiarly and intensely vexatious. Inso-
much are we impressed with this conviction, that we
cannot but think Mr. EscoTT was justified in
charging the Noble Lord the Member for Lynn

ST. ALBANS' ELECTION.

Me. Benjamin Bond Cabbell has been returned for
St. Albans, Lord Listowel, of the household, defeated.
What, however, could his Lordship expect against the
shrinking philanthropist, who speaks of his friendship
for the poor with that peculiar modesty that makes
known the manifold virtue of Holloway's Ointment ?
Mr. Cabbell, we doubt not, may possess loyalty—devo-
tion to the Church—and friendship for the poor ; but
these surpassing virtues do not, somehow, affect us as
they ought to do, when shouted from the hustings in the
confident tone of e sleight-of-hand man or fire-eater.
A large heart should not, we think, be advertised as
showmen adve►tise a monster hog. Mr. Cabbell, how-
ever, may think differently. His recent success may
induce him to think so ; and thus, improving on our
hint of the showman, he may—as that festal tradesman
paints his hog outside his booth—on a future occasion
have his philanthropic heart, in all its magnitude.
limned for the curiosity of the elector. " The Heart of
the Poor Man's Friend " would be a taking title ; and,
of course, the philanthropist would not copy the com-
mon exaggeration of showmen, by causing the thing
represented to be drawn at least double the size of the
original. When Mr. Cabbell last canvassed Marylebone,
a list of his donations to the poor was sent to every
elector. This, no doubt, was without the consent of the
worthy candidate ; it was, in fact, the work of some
enemy. Will any of our St. Albans' friends inform us
whether the same plotter was at work in their ancient,
unbought borough ? However, Mr. Cabbell is now RR
English senator ; and, judging from his hustings'
speeches, ho promises to add to the harmless amusement
of the House of Commons.—Douglas Jerrold's Weekly
Newspaper.

" That to provide for the destitution necessarily arising
from such a deplorable state of things, it appears to your me-
morialists that not a moment should be lost in procuring em-
ployment on a large scale for the people ; and that unless im-
mediate steps be taken for effecting this purpose the peace of
the country will be endangered.
" That already large assemblages of the people have met
within the last week, and threatened the proprietors and
millowners that, unless immediately relieved, they will ' help
themselves.'
" That your memorialists beg likewise to represent that
the contemplated measure of appropriating 1,000,0001. ster-
ling to the drainage of land in Ireland will not be available
for the purpose of giving employment in this and many other
districts, insomuch as there are no lands requiring to be
drained in the localities alluded to. Your memorialists,
therefore, humbly suggest that the application of said money
may be of a more general nature.
"That the funds placed at the disposal of your memo-
rialists for the relief of the ‘listress existing at the close of
the present season, are now nearly exhausted and your me-
morialists respectfully suggest that a further grant be forth-
with made to them for the purposes of meeting the impend-
ing pressure, and providing temporary employment until the
Government shall have bad time to organize a more general
system of affording relief by the construction of public works
on a large scale.
" Your memorialists consider the subject-matter contained
herein to be of so urgent a nature, that they most respect-
fully request the immediate attention of your Excellency to
its prayer, and your memorialists, as in duty bound, will ever
pray."

could not be arranged without a reference to the source
from whence the means were to be derived. Several
friends of the Gallant Officer, General Nott,
who had also fallen in consequence of his services
in that part of the world, had put forw,ird the claims of
his family ; and w-ry justly. But still, in the
present session of Parliament, it was imnossible to take
these matters into immediate consideration. The Gal-
lant Officer might, however. be assured that the matter,
as it was entitled to it, would receive the best considera-
tion of Government. _ _

Sir DE LACY EVANS was perfectly satisfied.
Lord J. RUSSELL understood this moment, from a
friend near him, that r,OO/. a year had already beta
granted to Lady Sale.
Sir 1)l LACY EVANS trusted that, as that allow-
ance had been made for a totally different service, and
ono which had no reference whatever to the loss of her
lamented husband, that his Lordship would discard that
circumstance altogether from his mind, in considering
the pension to which she was now entitled.
ECONOMIC GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM..

Mr.IiUMEI, seeing the Noble Lord at the head of the
Woods and Forests in his place, wished to ask him in
what state this structure was? He understood that it
was intendee, to keep the front houses in .Termyn-street
still in existence, and he thought that it would be a dis-
grace Ohe country if a few shops were to be aUaw,ed
to interfere with a public institution of this kind.
Lord MORPETH quite agreed with the lion. Mem-
ber, that it was advisable to render the approaches as
facile as possible, but he could not at present uive any
decided reply to the principal part of this question ; but
he might say that no paltry consideration would prevent
the Government from giving an institution such as
would be creditable to themselves, and advantageous to
the people.

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

This theatre has been engaged during the short recess by
Mr. Davidson, who opened last evening with Mr. Barnard
Gregory in Hamlet. On the appearance of Mr. Gregory last
night, the disgraceful scene of uproar, and confusion, and
violence which took place on his appearance in the same
character at Covent Garden a few years since, was renewed
with, if possible, increased intensity, and continued to the
conclusion of the performance. It is limier such circum.
stances impossible to criticise minutely the acting of Mr.
Gregoit, but what we say of Mr. Gregory's pertormanca
last night, confirms the opinion which we expressed when
he was acting at the Strand, viz., that if fair play were
shown him, he would become a great actor.

OPENING OF THE FRENCH
CHAMBERS.
PARIS, MONDAY, AUG. 17.
At one o'clock the King opened the session of the
Chambers by the following speech :
" Gentlemen, Peers, and Deputies,

" I experience a lively satisfaction at seeing yr,u assem-
bling around me with so much eagerness. At the usual
period of your labour I shall communicate with you
respecting the internal and external affairs of the State.
At present, in convoking immediately the two Chambers,
in -compliance with that charter, in summoning the
Peers appointed since last session, and the Deputies,
whom France has just honoured with her suffrages, to
take the oath before me, I am anxious that you should
receive at the same time the assurance of my active
and unchangeable devotedness to our country, and of
my confidence in your sentiments towards me and my

family.
" I learned from my earliest youth to love and serve
France. Called to the Throne by her wish, for the sal-
vation of her liberty, I devoted my existence to the
regular maintenance of her institutions, and to the
peaceable development of her prosperity and grandeur.
'Chere is no trial that I am not prepared to submit to,
and that I shall not endure, in order to attain an object
io dear to my heart.' Pros idence, I hope, will permit
me, with the co-operation of the Chambers, and the
national astent, to insure the success of that patriotic
labour. _ _

" Aly children and yours will reap its fruit, and, if
France, free and happy, retain an affectionate recollec-
tion of our common efforts, it shall be, Gentlemen, our
brightest and noblest reward."

LINCOLNSHIRE.—BREWERY at SPALDING,

Together with the TRADES ATTACHED to FOURTEEN
LEASEHOLD PUBLIC-HOUSES, several FREE HOUSES,
and PRIVATE TRADE.
MR. W. W. SIMPSON is instructed to SELL
the ALBION BREWERY, situate In Double-street,
Spaleing, and comprising as follows :—Brewbouse, with Malt and
Hop Chambers, Stores, Counting-house, &c., a convenient Resi-
dence, an excellent Malt-house and Well-house, in which is a well,
affording an abundant supply of water to the brewery and malt-
house. The buildings are brick-built and slated, and in a very
perfect state of repair. They possess a commanding frontage of
nearly 260 feet to the River Welland, which communicates with
Stamford, and is navigable to the sea ; and the property, from its
extent, might he made available for the carrying on of the coal
trade, or any other mercantile business in conjunction with the
brewery. The moderate terms on which this property will be
sold, offers one of the most eligible opportunities which could oc•
cur for an active person desirous of embarking in the brewing
business, as a comparatively small amount of capital would be re-
quired to carry it on (particularly as the proprietor would give
great facilities by allowing a proportionally large sum to remain in
mortgage), and the purchaser would have the trades arising from
fourteen leasehold public-houses ; also several free houses and a
considerable private trade, at present commanding altogether
about two thousand barrels annually, but which might be very
considerably extended.

Particulars may be obtained of Messrs. J. R. Carter and Son,
solicitors, Spalding ; of Mr. William Proctor, on the premises ;
and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, estate, brewery, and distillery
agent, Bucklersbury, who strongly recommends a personal inspec
