9. Those distinguished regiments, the 16th Lancers and
31st Foot, are about to return to their native country after a
service in India, the former of 24 and the latter of years,
and although the Commander-in-Chief has recently and so
frequently had occasion to laud the gallant conduct of these
corps before an ii.trepid enemy, he cannot permit them to
embark without again expressing his admiration of their
continued and conspicuous bravery in all the battles they
have been engaged in during this long and eventful period of
their Indian service, whether in Affghanistau, or the more
sanguinary conflicts of 1845-46.
These brave regiments may be assured they will be re-
ceived in their native land by every demonstration of that
patriotic feeling which galant exploits ensure from their
countrymen.
The 16th Lancers have added to their standards :--
" Bhurtport, Affghanisten, Ghuznie, Maharajpore, Aliwal,
and Sobraon;" and the 31st Regiment will have recorded
on their already highly decorated colours:—
" Caubul, Aloodkee,Forozeshah, Aliwal, and Sobraon."
Again must Lord Gough express the gratification it affords
him thus to be able to record his opinion of their merits;
and both these corps are assured their correct conduct in
quarters, and almost total absence of crime for many years
have mainly conduced to the gallant achievements in the
field their good fortune has afforded them the opportunity to
contribute to.
That every happiness and welfare may hereafter attend
these regiments is the Commander-in• Chief's ardent desire,
—for he must ever feel the warmest interest in the career of
such highly-distinguished 'regiments.
The Commander-in-Chief congratulates the two officers,
Lieutenant-Colonel 3PD6well, C. 8., and Lieutenant-Colonel
Spence, who accompanied their regiments to India nearly a
quarter of a century ago, upon now having the honour and
gratification of commanding them, after such distinguished
services, on their return to their native land. Lieutenant-
Colonel M'Dowell has never left India since his first arrival.

her Majesty's 16th Lancere, died yesterday or Cholera, at

LOSS OF THE BOMBAY CASTLE BY FIRE.
(From tho Calcutta Star, of May 30. )
The Semaphore Report of Thursday evening, announced
the loss by tire of the ship Bombay Castle, off Saugur an-
choring buoy, of which melancholy occurrence we are now
enabled to give the following account, with which we have
been obligingly favoured by a gentleman who was on

board :

-laving just arrived from Saugur by the Lion steamer,
_ _

I address you with a view to give -a
true statement of facts
relative to the loss of the ship Bombay Castle, which was
destroyed by fire off Saugur Point this morning, being made
public, and something like justice done to the exertions of
Captain Fraser and his officers, at the same time that the
loss of the vessel is made known. The first alarm of fire
was given at about a quarter to twelve on the night of the
27th (Wednesday), and upon coming upon deck he found
the ship was on fire on the gun deck close to the main
hatch, but this, owing to the excellent arrangements of
Captain Fraser and his officers, well seconded by the exer-
tions of the crew (Chinamen and lascars), was speedily got
under.
" Shortly after this it was discovered that the vessel was
also on fire forward, close to the chess trees; and the deck
was immediately scuttled to allow of water being poured
upon the burning part.
"All exertions were used to subdue the fire, but the las-
cars became so alarmed at the progress of the flames that
the control exercised by the officers was much weakened,
though they continued to exert themselves in every manner
that could be looked for from British 'sailors. Seeing how
desperate all endeavours to save the ship must prove, as the
flames were rushing through the main hatchway—the cap-
tain ordered one of the quarter-boats to be launched, and the
women and children put on board. Thanks to the excel-
lent arrangements which had previously furnished the boats
with oars, rudders, &c., this was done with comparatively
little difficulty, and the boat safely delivered her freight on
board the Ellen, of London, which was, with several other
vessels, anchored near the spot where the Bombay Castle
was lying.
" Almost immediately after the boat had left the vessel
the lascars were in the fore part of the ship (commu-
nication with the stern being by this time cut off by the
flames), launched the jolly-boat aver the bows, but she was
almost immediately swamped by the rush made to get on
board her. Others attempted to get away on spars and such
rafts as individuals on the spur of the moment could frame—
and
it is to be feared that many, if not most, of these pe-
rished, but the number had not, when I left the spot, been
ascertained. Signals of distress had been made as soon as the
tire forward was discovered, and those of the vessels near at
hand who had boats ready for the emergency, sent them to
aid in bringing off the people.
" The Cove sent two boats and the Duke one for the pur-
pose, and were the means of saving many lives by their exer•
tions. Captain Fraser and some of his officers remained on
board till the deck was burning beneath their feet, and quitted
the vessel only when every one that could be removed had
been duly cared for. It is impossible to say too much of their
self-devotion and gallantry throughout.
Mr. Childs. the pilot, with his leadsman, Mr. Smyth,
showed themselves as cool, zealous, and energetic as men
could possibly be. Mr. Childs, who left the vessel in the
first boat immediately on reaching the Ellen, called for a
volunteer crew of British sailors, which was instantly fur-
nished from the gallant fellows on board—and returned with
them to aid in bringing away the people from the burning
wreck.
" Every hospitality and attention were shown to the suf-
ferers by the vessels which received them ; but when were
these wanting from British sailors to those in distress?'
" The Bombay Castle, at % A.M., was one mass of flame,
and at a quarter-past three the masts fell in succesion over
the side, and she drifted from her anchors down upon the
Gaspar land. Shortly before taking the ground she blew
up—the explosion destroying about one-third of the vessel—
what remained of her continued to burn till daylight, when
I came away.
" Nothing has been saved beyond the clothes which each
hurriedly put on when the alarm of fire was given—the
ship's papers and a few instruments which Captain Fraser
brought away alone excepted.
"Had we been enabled to proceed to sea, which the state
of the weather prevented, nothing humanly speaking, could
have saved us; but it pleased God to allow us to be over-
taken by the misfortune where aid was at hand, and we have
every reason to be grateful to Him who has preserved so
many lives under such awful circumstances."

THE NORTH-WEST PROVINCES.
We learn from Lucknow that one of the regiments in the
service of his Majesty the King of Oude has been refrac-
tory. Our letters state that "on the night of the 17th, the
23d and 46th Regiments of Native Infantry were ordered to
hold themselves in readiness to proceed on service, and that
on the morning of the 18th the before-mentioned regiments,
together with some artillery, marched out of the station,
under Brigadier Webber, in order to bring the refractory
corps to their senses. It appears, however, that long before
they reached the spot where their services were likely to be
required, the refractory cerps had taken to their heels, leav-
ing their arms and six large guns behind them." It is said
(but our correspondent does not vouch for the accuracy of
the rumour) that the non-payment of arrears of pay was the
cause of the outbresk. The force under
.Brigadier Webber
returned to cantonments at seven o'clock cn the morning of
the 18th, the date of our letter. —3lofussilite, May 22.
Orders have been issued to some of the regiments on the
frontier to detach recruiting parties to the vicinity of Kangra,
to pick up Hill Rajpoots, who are said to be found there in
considerable numbers, and most ready to take service. They
are supposed to be, as in Kumaon, descendants of the Rai-
poots driven from the plains in former days. These parties are
directed to complete the ten men por company allowed to
corps on the frontier. Many regiments had previously sent
detachments to beat up for recruits in those parts of the
country whence such are usually derived. The Jullunder
parties are to receive their instructions from the political of-
ficers in the new territory.—Delhi Gazette, May 23.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE FROM THE FRONTIER.
The force before Kangra is becoming daily more respect-
able. It will consist, when complete, of nearly three regi-
ments of Native Infantry, a regiment of Irregular Cavalry,
Captain Fitzgerald's Light Field Battery from Phulloor,
Captain Christie's ditto front Jullundur, and Captain Swill-
ley's troop of Horse Artillery, with two 8-inch howitzers,
ten mortars, and three 18-pounders, should they be able to
reach, of which some doubts are entertained, with three
companies of Artillery to work the siege guns. Brigadier
Smith, C. 8., of the Engineers, arrived at Kangra from
Lahore, on the 13th inst., as also, Captain Napier, from
Umballah. The latter was to retrace his steps on the 15th
to the banks of the Beas, with the view of joining and
accompanying Brigadier Wheeler's force to Kangra. We
understand that Captain Napier considers the road the
guns will have to travel not quite so bad as it was previously
thought. On the 13th and 14th the engineers and political
officers repeatedly reconnoitred the place, and there were
fresh rumours of surrender on the last-named day, but the
continued sounds of preparation within the walls were
still plainly heard from the advanced posts. It appears we
were in error in stating that Major Lawrence had taken
the Jullundur route to Kangra from Umritser, as he fol-
lowed the short road rid Deenanuggar. We give the fol-
lowing extract entire from the letter of a friend regarding
the site at Dhurmsala, which we have already mentioned :
"A delightful spot for a military station and sanatarium has
been discovered on the hills which bound the Kangra and
Rhilloo Valleys to the north. It is a table land upwards of
a mile in length and half as much in breadth, at an eleva-
tion of rather more than 4,000 feet above the level of the sea
On this there is space for two regiments, much more than the
majority, of the heroes who compose them would like for
parade. Water flows in abundance on both aides of the table
land, which itself stands high and dry. The elevation is not
greater than that of Subathoo, but the climate is consider-
, ably cooler, as the spot is open to all the winds of heaven,
' and looks the snowy Chumba range, 14,000 feet high, full in
the face. Further up the hill, from 5,000 to 8,000 feet high
YOU came upon another Simlah Laites bo level that they seem

meant for bungalows, so men and shady, firry and rhodo-.
dendrony, that fancy cuts a mall' along them in an instant,
drives off the rude blanket covered Tartar, and his browsing
herds, and people the scene with dandies in tight trousers
and belles in ' new spring bonnets.' The speculator and the
lover of the picturesque would equally find the hill of Dhu'm-
sale worth a visit." Can anything be more delightful, espe-
cially when we remember that this new oasis is but a step-
ping stone to the celebrated " Vale of Kashmeer."—Delhi
Gazette, May 23.
Letters of the 7th instant, received this morning, from
the force under Brigadier Wheeler, state that he is getting
on as well as could be expected. He was detained four days
crossing the Beas, in consequence of the great scarcity of
beats, there being only four on the first day. The number
was, however, subsequently increased to twelve from the
ghats below, and by working day and night all got over on
the 16th, except Captain Swiuley's troop of Horse Artillery,
and the 4th Irregulars. The European gunners have been
at times all day at work assisting in getting on the guns.
The force was within four marches of Kangra, and one from
the banks of the Bess. The first of these is said to be nothing,
the second " no joke," and of ten miles; but the road, though
steep, has been made passable for anything that may be
brought up. The guns started at two in the morning,
and were not up at six P.M., which would entail
a halt on the 18th. Brigadier Wheeler cannot therefore
have reached Kaagra at an earlier date than the 22d. The
two last marches are up the channel of a mountain stream,
said to be well paved with large round stones. Brigadier
Smithis stated to have written to camp in most respectful
terms of the defences of Kangra, and to have expressed his
opinion that double the quantity of ammunition brought
with the guns (500 rounds) would he required. It was
believed by some in camp, that the garrison had agreed to
surrender, or at least that a portion (the Hindnostanees) had
insisted on such a measure, while the Khatsas (the
majority) refused to entertain terms. Another report is
the effeet that the garrison had offered to evacuate on the
following conditions :—" A Jagheer to the Killedar (by tl e
bye our native Lahore correspondent says his name is Soon-
dur Singh, nut Hunsraj), two months' pay to the garrison,
and all to carry out their arms." We have not heard of this
from Kangra, therefore hope it is only a report, as we should
be almost sorry to find the heroism of the defence tarnished
so miserably, that the romantic story of the "token" had lost
its value on the stock exchange of chivalry, and that the be-
sieged havesindeed set a price upon their desperate resolve to
die among the ruins of their fertress.—lbid.

CHINA.
THE DISTURBANCES AT FOO-CHOW-1700.
(From the China Ifail, May 7.)
The Torrington, which arrived here on Monday about
noon, after a passage of only forty-eight hours-from Foo-
chow -foo, has brought the latest advices from that city. The
disturbances and angry feeling towards foreigners, excited by
the misconduct of the seamen from the Daedalus, as men-

tioned in our issue of the 10th April, had greatly.subsided.
The Espiegle, from Amoy, had arrived in the Min, but a
vessel of her draught cannot approach within many miles of
the city, and to dispatch a boat's crew would only be to give
occasion for fresh outrages.
Immediately after the affray with the Dtedalus's men the
aspect of matters seemed so alarming that the Shroffs and
Chinese servants advised the foreign residents to seek the
protection of the receiving ships; and their houses were no
sooner evacuated than the mob commenced plundering
them. We have not heard, however, that any one suffired
personal violence, though one English merchant (he may be
called the only one at Foochow-foo), in effecting his escape,
fell through the roof of a house, and sustained considerable

injury.
On receiving intelligence of the disturbed state of the city,
the receiving vessels had moved up the river as far as prac-
ticable, for the purpose of affording protection to the foreign
residents and their property ; but on the urgent remon-
strances of the Chinese authorities, who declared that their
presence would exasperate the mob, the Consul advised their
removal to their former anchorage, about 30 miles off.
Foreigners were absent about a fortnight, but had returned
at the time the Torrington arrived. Affairs, however, were
in such an unsettled state that the consignee deemed it ex-
pedient not to land her cargo, which was therefore brought
back to Hong-Kong. The amount of freight and of loss
thus incurred will, we suppose, form part of the claims for
compensation about to be preferred against the Chinese.
During the rioting the English Consulate was unharmed,
nor were the inmates apprehensive of danger; and there is
no foundation for the statement of a contemporary that the
Consulate required the protection of 150 native soldiers. The
only occasion on which their services were made use of
while the Torrington was at the port was, while a clerk in
the establishment had occasion to proceed in his chair with
the captain of a merchant vessel through a part of the city,
when he was accompanied with what it seems is there called
a guard, being two Chinese soldiers without arms, from
which we conclude that they were not wanted from any ap-
prehension of danger. At all events this young gentleman
seemed to have more dependence on himself; for conceiving
that a Chinaman with a stick had assumed a threatening
attitude towards him, he leaped out of his chair, seized the
offender by the tail, dragged him out of a shop, and deli-
vered him over to the authorities. Whether the occasion
demanded this, or whether such exhibitions of hardihood
and resentment are commendable, may be doubted, but in
this instance the people looked on passively, and there was
no necessity for the assistance or interference of the guard.

MONEY MARKET,

The market, upon the whole, has been easier the last few days.
Some remittances have been received from China on merchants'
account, and more to a considerable amount are daily expected.
Government has provided steamers to convey about 35 lacs of old
rupees from Allahabad to the presidency. Part of this money
is said to be of a very remote period; it was received from the
Seikhs.

—Government securities arc dull and looking downwards, but the
depression is mainly in Sicca paper.
Exchange has rather rallied—the rate being general at 2s. 114 d. to
2s. 2d. at ten months' date, according to amount and parties.
Bank Stock is quiet; the near approach of the ensuing dividend
indisposing holders to sell at present quotations,

LI VOR.PO OL, TUESDAY.

•t• I •
Accounts from 'New York to the 2d lus • lac usivel have
been received this morning by the packet -ship Montezuma.
Important intelligoace had been receiN vd from Mexico.
The revolution against the Administration ,of Paredes had
spread to the department of Jalisco. The re\'olt broke out
in the city of Guadalaxara, and the Government troops
having, after a short skirmish, surrendered, the insurgents,
headed by Don Jose Maria Tanez, issued a formal declara-
tion, proclaiming Santa Anna their chief, and (Thclaring that
a new Congress bu elected by the people according to the
electoral laws of 1824, to frame a new and anti-monarchical
constitution. The decree .also provides that the Congress
meet four months after the liberating army should gain pos-
session of the capital of the republic. Don Juan Camplido
was reeognisell as provisional Governor of the depaftment,
and, according to the accounts published in the New Orleans
Picayune, under oath to repel the aggressions of the American
States. This statement, if authentic, bears a most important
relation to the duration of the existing war. Late accounts
from Savannah state that Santa Anna still remained there.
Letters from Yucatan report that the commander of the
United States brig Somers had received dispatches from the
Government, proclaiming the neutrality of the State. The
Somers, therefore, immediately left for Vera Cruz. A pri-
vate letter from New York adds to the above statement---
"Paredes has capitulated." The correctness of this is doubted,
however.

No further accounts have reached us from the "army of

invasion."

Domestic affairs in the Union had undergone little change,
and our advices still remain indefinite with regard to the
several points pmding at the date of our previous letters.
The Warehousing Bill had been taken up by the Senate on
the 80th..ult., and the measure would, it was anticipated,
receive the sanction of that assembly. Similar opinions
were generally entertained with regard to the Tariff Bill,
then sloWly progressing before the lower branch of Congress.
The leading men of the Upper House, according to the
Washington letter-writers, would compromise the question.
No steps had been taken by either House on matters of
finance.. The. rumours of Cabinet changes still -continued
afloat, and there would appear little doubt that Mr.

Buchanan desired, and would assume, the vacant seat upon
the Supreme bench.
Several additional military appointments had been made.
The Mormon differences bad temporarily settled down.
Exchange continued dull at 1074 to 108.
Our accounts from Canada are unimportant. The provin-
cial journals ridicule the bombastic comments of the Ame-
rican journals upon the late achievements effected by the
" American" tr-my, composed of a miscellaneous crowd of
foreign immigrants.

MEXICAN AFFAIRS.
(From the Yew Orleans Picayune.)
The United States sloop of war Falmouth arrived at Pen-
sacola on the evening of the'l9th inst. from off Vera Cruz,
whence she sailed on the 4th inst.

The United States steam frigate Princeton had arrived off
Vera Cruz, and, with the frigate Raritan, was maintaining
the blockade of the port. The health of the crews of both
vessels was excellent, although the vomito was raging in the
city of Vera Cruz.

The Falmoth left at Vera Cruz the British brig of war
Bose, and the French barque La Perouse and brig Le Mer-
cure.

The fate of the bark Eugenia, Captain Biscoe, from New
York—which vessel it will be recollected, ran the blockade
—was uncertain. Instructions for disposing of her had been
sought from the capital. Some were disposed to seize and
burn her, though subsequently a disposition was manifested
to let her off " scot free," in consideration of her saucy de-
fiance of the American squadron.
Our news from the city of Mexico is later than we gave
on Sunday. We are informed that the Mexican Congress
was finally organized on the Ist inst., but ne do not learn
whether a legal quorum was obtained. The reader will re-
cal that when Mr. Dimond, our late Consul at Vera Cruz,
left, on the 30th ult., he was decidedly of opinion that a
quorum could not legally be obtained, and such appears to
have been the case down to the evening of the 30th.
General Paredes at last determined to leave the capital and
take the command of the army of the frontier. The result
of the actions of the Bth and 9th of May is said to have
made upon him a profound impression. We detect in the
tone of the papers, which comment upon those actions, di-
rect attempts to paliate the extent of the disasters, intended
for the Provisional President rather than the public. But
Paredes would seam to appreciate the full extent of the ca-
lamity, and perhaps he judges rightly that the most certain
means to confirm his power in the Republic is to retrieve in
person the honours lost at Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma.
He was to leave the capital on the 6th instant, at the head
of 3,000 troops, but orders had been issued that large bodies
should join him at the different points on the line of march,
so that his entire force, including Arista's command, should
not fall short of 16,000 men. _ _ _

Although we have now received intelligence by way of
Havannah and Tampico, and by the Falmouth, that Paredes
would certainly take the command of the army in person, yet
there was an impression prevalent among men of sagacity in
Vera Cruz, when the Falmouth left, that he would not and
could not venture to leave the city of Mexico during the ses •
sion of Congress. It is said that nearly one-half of the coun-
try is in open revolt. The news received here a fortnight
since of the revolt at Mazatlan is confirmed, and, as we then
anticipated, Sonora is now in a state of rebellion against the
Central Government. _ _ _

So ripe for revolution is the department of Vera Cruz,
that upon the departure of the Falmouth it was said there
were 1,500 men outside the city of Vera Cruz ready to attack
it at any moment, upon the signal being given. Some of
the guns had actually been removed from the Castle of San
Juan de Ulloa, and placed around the city for its defence,
and troops had been withdrawn from the castle for the same
purpose.
Theintelligence received from Tampico on Sunday shows
how that city was rent by internal dissensions, and in con-
eidering the deplorable state of the country in every quarter
and under every aspect, it would by no means surprisa us
were Paredes compelled to forego his cherished purpose of
placing himself at the head of the Mexican army. But, sup-
pose he carries his resolution into effect, what better fate
awaits him at the hands of General Taylor and our troops?
Truly his chances from every point of view appear desperate.
To illustrate the treachery of General Alvarez towards
Paredes, the story is circulated at Vera Cruz that the
former, who had the commend of the forces at Mazatlan,
was supplied with 1,500,000 dolls. with which to act against
the American squadron in the Pacific. No sooner had
Alvarez obtained the funds than he pronounced against
Paredes, kept all the money, and even sold the cannon in the
forts.
The British brig Reliance, Captain Doane, arrived at this
port yesterday from Lompico, having sailed on the sth inst.
The Reliance was chartered at Liverpool to proceed to
Tampico, and thence to Tobasco, to take in a cargo of cork.
She was prevented from performing her voyage by the block-
ading squadron, and left Tampico on the sth in company
with several vessels previously reported at Tampico, the time
allowed by the terms of the blockade for loading and depart-
ing having expired.
We received yesterday a copy of El Locomotor, of Vera
Cruz, of the Bth instant, which is four days later than any
advices received by the Falmouth. The news is important.
A revolution had broken out in the department of Jali.co.
It commenced on the morning of the 20th of May in the city
of Guadalaxara. The battalion of Logos, followed by other
bodies of military and by the enthusiastic populace, attacked
the palace of the Governor.
The assault of the insurgents was so prompt, that the
guard had only time to make one discharge, by which one
man was killed and one wounded.

Some of the defenders recognised friends among the assail-
ants, and refused to fire, The disaffection then became ge-
neral, and some of the leaders of the Government troops
were arrested to save them from the 'fury of the insurgents.
Some skirmishing ensued, and preparations were making for
a general engagement, when General Dugue, who had taken
command of the Government troops, proposed a parley.
This was agreed to, and the result of the deliberation was,
that the troops under General Dugue should be allowed to
retire with the honours of war, by a route designed by them,
directly to the city of Mexico. Provisions were given them,
and they were allowed till the 22d to prepare for their de-

parture.
Don Jose Maria Tanez was at the head of the insurrection.
A formal declaration was drawn up by the insurgents, pro-
claiming Santa Anna their Chief, and declaring that a new
Congress should be summoned to be elected by the people,
according to the electoral laws of 1824, to form a new Con-
stitution, in which the monarchial principle is to be ex-
cluded. _

It also provides that the Congress should meet four months
after the liberating army shall gain possession of the capital.
Don Juan Camplido is recognised as Provisional Governor of
the Department, and his oath includes the repulsing of the
infamous usurpation of the Americans.

MRS. MABERLY'S NEW NOVEL, 1" LEONTINE."-From
the sale of the publication of " The Love Match," Mrs. Mo-
berly has taken rank amongst the popular novelists of the
day, and every now work of hers is looked forward to with
interest. In ..Leontine" she lays bare with unsparing pen
and strong purpose, the hollow elegance, the sensual cultiva-
tion, the abandoned and selfish refinement of the Richelieu's,
etinettioo f n ,
the De Chevreuses, the Bouffieurs, and the rest of the profli-
gate parasites who thronged Versailles during the reign of
Louis XV., the Heliogabalus of France. These she pourtrays
and the interest attaching to his
with a bod, unflinching spirit, yet so as never to offend,
whilst coming put from the mass of dark shade, in clear and
beautiful relief, stand the characters of Leontine and Anselm
Quinot, the very perfection of artistic skill, and pictorial
it has strong
effect. 'l he hero, Guesolinde Fontenelle, is not one of your

THE WEATHER.—The continues most fa-
vourable for the growing crops, and the fields of wheat and
barley, in some places, are l:Tgi9ning to assume the tint of
harvest. Such corn are now folly in the ear; and we saw the
other day a field of barley belonging to Captain Munro
which will be ready

in ten days. In general, all the crops are luxuri-
ent, except in some very ariddistricts, where the oats and
barley are short and irregular. In moist and good land the
return will be ample. At Arcan and other places, we ob-
servod some fine barley and oats, of
great height, and
with large ear. The Prolific
crop was every appear-
ance of being unusually prolific ; and e have heard of no
failure in this country, where, we believe, a larger breadth
than usual has been planted. The turnips are looking well,
and, so far as we have heard, have escaped the worm. St.
Swithin's day, the 15th, was warm and dry; and if the usual
prediction be verified, dry weather will prevail during the
autumn.—Ross-shire Advertiser.
COLLEGE OF ENGINEERS, PUTNEL—The president
and council, in order to meet the requirements of this ra-

Little, are now being carried into execution by Messrs.
Burton, the contractors. Additional buildings are also being
erected for the use of the Government Commission, under
Dr. Lynn Playfair, for the purpose of testing the qualities of
the different mines of coals throughout the kingdom.—The

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

Murphy's admirable comedy The Way to Keep Him
was revived here last night, for the purpose of intro-
ducing to a metropolitan audience " a lady, her first
appearance in London," in the character of the
Widow Belmour. For once the playbills have told the
truth. The debutante is a lady, and evidently a lady
used to the best society. She was nervous, as might have
been expected, and did not, therefore, give herself fair
play ; but it was evident that she had been used to the
best society ; there was a ton about her imper
sonation of the Widow Belmour that nothing
but the frequently mixing in good society can give.
In person she is rather above the middle height ; her
features are expres ve, and her figure tallness. From her
manner of giving the more serious portions of the part,
we should be inclined to augur favourably of her in tra-
gedy. She was not, however, wanting in the vis comica.
In the scene with Lovemore, in which she describes the
far niente, but far from dolce style of modern conversa-
tion, albeit from nervousness her manner was scarcely
sufficiently prononce, yet was she admirable. The germ
of great talent was evident, and when she has become
used to her audience, she will rattle through the de-
scription like a female Mathews. We have long
wanted a lady on the stage to represent the
principle characters of La haute Comedie, a lady with
that haut ton, that innate good breeding, which cannot be
taught—which no mere actress can ever hope to ac-
quire; and if we mistake not the Widow Belmour of last
evening is that lady. Whether she is so or no we
cannot at present decide. We wait until we shall have
seen her Lady Teazle. Her debut, however, has been
successful, and most deservedly so. She was applauded
throughout, and was called for at the conclusion and
received the floral tributes which are now the usual
tokens of success. The comedy was announced for re-
petition on Thursday amidst loud applause.
