PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

Mr. Charles Mathews and Madame Vestris, after a
lengthened absence from London, made their first ap-
pearance on this stage on Saturday. Madame ap-
peared in a new vaudeville entitled A Speaking Likeness,
and sustained the part of Manette, a country milkmaid.
living somewhere in Brittany, in the neighbourhood of
the chateau of the old Baron de Ransy (Mr. Granby), a
lover of pretty women, and a patron of the arts. Alfred
(Mr. J. Vining), a Parisian artist, is on a visit at the
chateau, and he is struck by the likeness, the speaking
likeness, which Manette bears to her whom he had ones
loved, but had mac rind to another, a dissipated roué, who,
having broken his wife's heart and dissipated her for-
tune, had gone to India to seek his fortune. He makes
love to Manette, who, with a delightful mixture of arch-
ness nod simplicity, keeps the poor painter in a state of
perpetual torawnt, by her rustic coquetting. He at last
persuades her to attire herself en grande dame, and set
for her portrait, in order that he may paint and possess
the likeness of her he had once loved. She takes her
seat majestically; and, in order to fix her at-
tention so that he may the better catch her features,
he hands her a newspaper. Scarcely has she
looked at it, when she screams and faints. It is scarcely
necessary to add the denouement. Manette is no other
than the lady-love of Alfred, who, to escape from the
persecution of her husband, had fled to Brittany to seek
the protection of her nurse, and the newspaper contains
an account of that husband's death, so that there is
no longer any obstacle to the happiness of Alfred. Comp-
ton, who acted the part of a stupid rustic, was most ar-
tistically stolid, and at the conclusion shared with
Madame Vestris the honours of a call. Charles Mathews,
who was as effervescent as ever, appeared in his own
two farces, He would be an Actor, and Two o'Clock in
the Morning, and was received with an enthusiastic wel-
come. The house was well attended.

up and handed it to his companions, by whom a division
appeared to be made. She then walked onwards, but
had not proceeded more than twenty or thirty yards ere
she was passed by a woman, who carried a basket on
one of her arms, whilst on the other side of her she 4,b-
-served the prisoner walking evidently closely watching
her. The woman's attention' was principally directed to
the basket, and presently a puff of wind having blown
her gown aside, the little prisoner pushed his hand into
her pocket, and ere he was able to release his arm she
laid hold of him and retained her grasp until a police-
man came up, when she gave him into his custody.
The boy had fast clutched in his hand which had been
in her pocket a shilling and three sixpences, all of which,
of course, were at once claimed by the owner.
The Learned JUDGE when, the, jury had pronounced
their verdict of " Guicty " said—What could be done
with this little child? 'lt would be ruination to send
him to a common prison. These scenes were positively
heartrending. Was he to pass over the cases of these
children as though the fact of their being brought to that
bar was to be regarded quite as a matt,.r ofcourse?
Was he to change his nature and so to steel his feelings

THE SWINDLER WYNDHAM.

The truth of Wyndham's death, which was recently
published, having been questioned in a letter signed " J.
C. Dowsing, late manager," the Glouce4er Journal,
which originated the account of the swindler's exit from
the stage of life, gives the following further particulars:
—" After reading the above letter, we deemed it abso-
lutely necessary to make some more minute inquiries as
to the truth of our original statement, the result of
which has been to satisfy us of the general correctness
of the paragraph, with one important exception, namely,
an inaccuracy of date. The death of the person Page,
Wyndham, or Wellesley, took place, not on the 20th of
June, as previously stated, but on the 29th of August,
at an inn on the banks of the Wye, between the towns
of Hay and Builth, and he was buried on the Jst of
September. At the time of his death he. was, as we
stated, accompanied by a woman who passed as his wife,
but who, when her companion was seized with sudden
and mortal illness, acknowledged that she had no claim
to the title. and had only known Mr. Page a few weeks,
having met him in London, and agreed to accompany
him into Wales. On death taking place, a highly re-
spectable gentleman of the legal profession was sent for
to examine the deceased's papers and effects, and
amongst them found the names of Wyndham and Wel-
lesley, with bankers' vouchers in both those names.
Particulars as to his family and connexions were also
obtained, and communication of his decease made to
them, as we mentioned in our former Raragraph. We
ought perhaps to state that we have obtained these facts
through the medium of gentlemen connected with an
extensive banking establishment in this city, who have
been in correspondence on the subject with the attorney
who made the examination of the dead man's papers,
and supplied the bank with the particulars. The de-
ceased, we understand, will be remembered in the city
of Hereford from his exploits there a few years ago,
where, as Captain Page, he created a great sensation in
the character of a military man and man of fashion, but
left the place very considerably in debt. That the de-
ceased Mr. Page was identical with Captains Wyndham
and Wellesley we think there can be no doubt—the
bankers' vouchers alone, accompanied by the names, af-
fording tolerably circumstantial proof. But though this
particular gentleman may have finished his swindling
career, he is not the last of his class ; and the suspicions
of Mr. Dowsing are not, therefore, at all misplaced.
Captain Wyndham's mantle will, no doubt, fall upon
some other brother of the trade,' against whose plau-
sible contrivances for carrying on fraud and imposition
the public cannot be too much on their guard."

grounded in the centre of the river before they arrived
opposite the town. During the time they were aground
the Mexican volunteers so annoyed them by their fire
that, when got afloat again, they were glad to make a
hasty retreat.
_

"Almonte, the present Minister of War, would, it was
believed, be elected President, should he conform to the
wishes of Santa Anna. Santa Anna would, in all proba-
bility, be Almonte's successor.
" General Canaleso returned from Paris to Mexico,
by the Royal Mail steamer Clyde, and it was believed
that Santa Anna would appoint him his second in
command.

"It is not likely that the war will be of long conti-
nuance, as the vast expense of the American army is
much beyond what can be long borne by the United
States Government, and the Mexicans, or at least the
more respectable portion, desire peace, if it can be ob-
tained on honourable terms."

PORTSMOUTH, WEDNESDAY NIGHT.—By the arrival
of her Majesty's steam-frigate Cyclops, Captain Lapidge,
which came up to Spithcad this evening about eight
o'clock, in eight days from Lisbon, having communicated
with Oporto, we have news from the above quarter to
the Ist inst., being eight days later.
At the above date the Queen's troops still invested
Santarem, Das Antas's force being about 3,000 strong.
Lisbon was perfectly tranquil, as was Oporto, at which
place the Cyclops touched on the 2d. Both cities were
being put in a state of defence as well as the means and
appliances at command would admit of.
No operations of any kind had taken place since the
last advice:.

The latest news from the north is, that a Miguelite
general, Macdonnell, had collected a force of 3,000 well-
armed men at Braga, having declared for Don Miguel,
which declaration was received by the people with every
demonstration of rejoicing.

On the morning of the 2d the outward-bound packet,
having communicated with Oporto, was proceeding on
to Lisbon when the Cyclops exchanged numbers with
her.

Vice-Admiral Sir William Parker's
.squadron in the
Tagus when the Cyclops left consisted of the flag-ship
Hibernia, 100, Captain RV-arils; the Trafalgar, 120,
Captain Nutt; the Canopus, 81, Captain Moresby; the

mand of Captain Stephens, Captain Corry having come
home on leave in the Cyclops. The Vanguard, 80, Capt.
Willes, was on the south coast of Spain.

WEST INDIES.

The private accounts from the West Indies repre-

weather particularly favourable, although a more
than usual quantity of rain had fallen. It was very
hot in Jamaica, and some little sickness prevailed.

JAMAICA MARKETS.
(From De Cordocas' Mercantile Intelligencer.)
Flour—The demand being rather active, and the sup-
ply light, several parcels have changed hands at im-
proved rates. The market is now in a good position,
and prices have reached 345. per barrel, at which rates
holders are generally firm. The sales have been-600
barrels Philadelphia at 325. ; 100 ditto ditto at 335, ;
550 ditto ditto at 345. ; 500 barrels Georgetown at 345. ;
300 ditto, and 200 half ditto ditto at 345. ; 600 barrels
Philadelphia at 335. The above sales are reported in
the order in which they were effected.
Corn Meal—This article also is in good demand.
100 barrel, have been taken at 365., and 500 ditto at 255.,
per barrel.

LONDON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1846,

Miserably ungenerous as the onslaught upon Mexico
has been from its commencement, our sentiments of in-
dignation thereat are exceeded by our contempt for the
incompetency of the assailants. After a preposterous
amount of bluster the American belligerents are
only negatively victorious. A general, who is re-
ported to have thinned the laurel shrubberies in the
Rio Grande in weaving chaplets for his own glory
and brow, fights with AMPUDIA, gets seriously in-
jured, capitulates for the neighbouring fortifications,
and recapitulates his preceding braggadocio, and then
stands shivering behind the battlements of Monterey
mortally fearful of any further advancement. General
TAYLOR has, apparently, as little inclination to ad-
vance upon Saltillo, as Captain WEAZLI3 had to
emerge from the carrier's van. A Commodore is
dispatched with an ostentatious squadron to Alvarado,
and what with a vast amount of blundering and lab-
berly seamanship, gets beaten back in a manner dis-
graceful to himself professionally, and rather indica-
tive of the pusillanimity of his subordinate officers.
Commodore STOCKTON has endeavoured to ob-
tain the chestnuts, but has only burnt his
fingers in the attempt. It is impossible to recur
to the vain-glorious exultation with which
the news of the battle of Monterey was received
throughout the United States without the gorge ris-
ing at such impertinent egotism. The victory proves
after all to have been little better than a defeat. The
town was only surrendered in consequence of an adroit
capitulation. The Americans were severely injured,
and their adversaries would unquestionably have been
the conquerors providing General Asiruno. had only
evinced a little more determination. Is any proof re-
quired of these statements ?—the returns of killed
and wounded in the engagement are alone amply
sufficient. But beyond this testimony there is the
extraordinary moderation of the demands made by
General TAYLOR upon the Mexicans, and, above all,
there is the course pursued by this same redoubtable
commander since his occupation of Monterey.

LONDON, TIIIMSDAY, DZCEMBER 10, 1846.

French influence is not only maintained in Madrid,
it is more than ever predominant. The harvest of
the Montpensier marriage is already being garnered.
The pear is not only ripe, it is gathered. With the
termination of November a variety of Ministerial
changes have set the Spanish capital in a ferment,
end have revealed at the same moment the
continued supremacy of Louis PHILIPPE'S Am-
bassador. The Afrancesados have in all liken-
lood been striving to conceal the unconstitutional
scaffolding upon which their power has been
erected. They have, doubtless, been endeavouring
most sedulously to screen themselves from the ob-
loquy which their latent subserviency to the Count
nE 13ansios would excite against them on its distinct
revelation. They have been trying to shroud in
obscurity their ignoble connexion with the Gallic
Uahinet. In these contemptible endeavours they
lave been miserably un,uccessful. The very earnest-
ile3s of their desire for concealment has con-
duzed to a most unfortunate, and a most
complete exposure, just as SHAIESPERE speaks of

" The dread of guilt,
Spilling itself from fearing to be spilt."
The circumstances of this ecldrcisser,zent are peculiar
and interesting.
At ten o'clock on the eight of the 29th ultimo the
Ministry tendered their resignation. That resigna-
ton Nws accepted with apparent alacrity by ISABELLA
11. At eleven o'clock the Marquis of VtLumA
was, at the instigation of CHRISTINA, invited to
form an administration, but immediately declined.
.subsequently the Marquis of MmarLonus, the Mar-
quis CASA TRUJO, and others, received similar re-
quisitions, and those requisitions were successively
rejected with similar promptitude.
Among the numerous causes to which these unex-
pected occurrences are traced, there are only four of

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF QUEELV'S BEACH, Dec. 9.
PLIMMER V. ANDERSON.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.)
Evidence was adduced to show the delivery of va-
rious quantities of ale and beer; that the running ac-
count between the parties, on being balanced in May,
showed the above-mentioned balance in favour of the
plaintiff, who allowed the defendant Si. per cent. discount
on all sums paid by him.
The defence was that the plaintiff was really indebted to
the defendant for money expended, and for time and
trouble in endeavouring to obtain a spirit license for ano-
ther house belonging to the plaintiff, for which he claimed
upwards of 501.; that he was simply placed in the house
in question to sell beer and ale for the plaintiff, at a
commission of 10s. per barrel, and Si. per cent. discount;
and that he paid the rent to the owner of the house for
the plaintiff.

Evidence was adduced on the part of the defendant to
show that such an arrangement had been made.
The plaintiff's son, however, was called, and proved
that the defendant was allowed 10/. for his expenses;
that no arrangement was made to pay 10s. per barrel;
that he uas his father's tenant, lino that if he obtained
the spirit license, which he did not, he was either to give
the plaintiff a promissory note fur 1,2001., the value of
the other house, the Victoria, or to have 1001. for his
trouble.
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for the
amount claimed.
WOODS AND FIELD V. THOMS AND ANOTHER.
This was on a bill of exchange fur 279/ Is. incurred
for hops supplied to the defendants by the plaintiffs, who
are hop merchants in Mark-lane. The defendants are
brewers at Hungerford, in Wiltshire.
Mr. Joseph Rainer, the plaintiff's traveller, proved
the hand writing of Matthews, one of the defendants.
The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs.

It appeared that the prisoner had for some time lodged

lost his watch, and on the same day the prisoner disap-
peared, and was not seen or heard of till he was taken by
policeman F 135 on Tuesday night. The prisoner, on the
