TUB FRENCH. TROOPS IN THE CRIMEA.

The Assemblee National of Tuesday contains the
following article on the condition of the French
army in the Crimea, which will be read with inte-
rest after the remarks made on the same subject by
the Moniteur :
" The article of the Times, which the Monitcur, has
answered, did not escape our attention. The Times
is not the only English journal whose correspondents
have painted in the most gloomy colours the situa-
tion of our troops in the Crimea. Without being
entirely void of foundation, as we see by the reply
of the official journal, these accounts are evidently
exaggerated. We had no wish to reproduce them,
although we alluded to them on one or two occasions,
in expressing our wishes for a speedy peace. But,
allowing for exaggeration, it is certain that our army has
been cruelly tried this winter, notwithstanding the soli-
citude of which it has been the object. Sickness has
been more frequent, more malignant than last year, and
everything proves that in the hospitals the deaths have
been much more numerous. The Moniteur accounts fcr
this by the unhealthy situation of our present encamp-
ment. To this cause must be added the inclemency of the
season, which, in the Crimea, has been of the worst na-
ture. Finally, if in the past year the fatigues and dangers
of the siege were added to the rigours of winter, our sol-
diers found in those very perils au excitement which is
wanting to-day. The slightest event of the struggle in
which they were engaged resounded over the entire
world. Every arrival conveyed to them proofs of
sympathy and admiration. The grandeur of the task in
which they were engaged, amidst so many difficulties,
and under the eyes of attentive Europe, doubled their
strength and energy. For three months past, matters
have changed, and it is not towards the Crimea that the
eyes of ail are east. This new situation has naturally
had its influence on the sanitary condition of the army.
, But if public attention is withdrawn from the theatre of
I war, and has taken another direction, Fr ante has not
forgotten those of her children who are detained by the
requirements of politics on the shores of the Bosphorus
or the plains of the Crimea. The cruel trials of this ex-
ceptional winter have been supported by them with a
courage, a constancy above all praise. Never have
.the
sentiments of duty, discipline, the true military
been carried to a further extent. In the struggle which
they sustain to-day against sickness, our soldiers are
not less admirable than at the assault, or on the field
of battle ; and the country will make no distinction be-
tween those who served it with equal devotion and
heroism in circumstances so different. The Moniteur
informs us that their condition has improved. We re
joice sincerely at this, but we await still better news, for
we believe that it will soon be possible to terminate
those sufferings. Peace will give the signal of return to
our brave soldiers, and the month will not conclude, it
we believe in our hopes, without the telegraph convey-
ing to them orders to leave those inhospitable shores,
where the dead destroy the living. The day is not far
distant when France will prove to the eoldiers of the
Crimea that she has not forgotten them."

CRYSTAL PALACE—SHILLING DAY, March 27.—Ad-
missions on payment, 2,29 P ; ditto by season ticketp,

When the present war shall meet with its legiti-
ma to hiAorian, among other of its inscrutable and
una :countable freaks and bye passages -will be
fowl d the episode of Anapa. Let not our readers
start. way from an unusual name, or imagine that
we int end to treat them with some dull criticism
and civilian's disquisition upon an obscure and un-
interesting passage in the war. In the name of
Anapa there is, in fact, involved the history of the
Circamsiatns, and the part they have taken, or
should I, ave taken iu this campaign against
Russia. though mightier interests may for a
time have absorbed public attention, yet, when
these are pi ‘s,sed, and it has become possible to
take a calmer review of the war and its events,
the question will recur, how is it that so little has
been thought of the Circassians ? Why have a
people occupyin g a most important frontier and
boldly withstano ing for years the aggregate powers
of Russia, been never brought into play, and ap-
parently never sob much as regarded by the allies
or their rulers ?
Our correspondent's highly-interesting and im-
portant letter from Anapa, which appeared in our
columns of Wednesday ast, will explain this
strange anomaly. It will show both the causes of
the apparent inactivity of the Circassians, their
little prominence in the war, and the real authors
of that inactivity. It will clear the character of a
brave and hardy race from the imputations which
have gathered round it. And when the Duke of
Newcastle again takes his seat in the House of
Lords, his grace, who Las been visiting Anapa,
and hrs male himself familiar with 'the events to
which wo refer, will doubtless take an opportu-
nity of enlightening the .nation as to the true state
of the case.

If our readers will take the trouble of examining
the relative positions of Kertch and Anapa, and
the surrounding districts, they will at once perceive
the commanding awl important situation of the
latter, and its paramount value as the key of Cir-
cassia. A very little pains would have converted
it into an impregnable stronghold. Built upon a
rock, possessing the greatest advantages by sea and
land, Anapa is not only important as a military
position, but as a rallying point for the Circassians.
A few hundreds of Europeans fairly supplied with
ammunition might hold it out against any large
force which Russia could bring against it ; because
their strength would be continually augmented by
a population whom years of hostility have made
the uncompromising enemy of Russia. It will be
seen, indeed, by our correspondent's letter that
Sefer Pacha, the old Circassian chief, with two
field-pieces only, did offer to raise a body of men,
and hold Anapa against the Russians, if he only I
received sufficient encouragement from head-quar-
ters at Sebastopol. He did, in fact, hold it
without that encouragement ; nay more, in spite of
the very heavy discouragement with which he, like
many other bravo men, have been visited during
the war, whenever they dared suggest operations
which did not emanate from one particular class of
heads or find favour within the limited capabilities
of certain privileged cliques. As a military posi-
tion Anapa is of no less value than Kars ; in re-
ference to the immediate population by which they
are surrounded, the former outdoes the latter; just
as much as the good-will of a hardy race like the
Circassiana is more valuable, as it is more trust-
worthy, than any professions of aid from the races
which surround many of the Asiatic fortresses.
But just as bravo General Williams was left with-
out support at Kars—was rewarded with an indif-
ference proportioned to his sacrifices and exertions
—just so was it at Anapa. The old Circassian chief
was abandoned to his fate—ho, too, was left to
make the best of his two rusty guns, and perish or
not. The Circassians have met, on the side of the
allies, with a total and contemptuous indifference;
their applications were disregarded ; their advances
repulsed ; " important despatches, reports, and
petitions" of-the utmost urgency wore left with-
out an answer. And as if these instances of cal-
lousness had not been enough, with a total want
of right feeling towards Sefer Paella, who had
always distinguished himself for his loyalty to the
cause of Constantinople and the allies, without his
concurrence, and iu direct opposition to the wishes
of his people, a resolution was taken by the allies
to blow up the fortress. On the 10th of October a
French officer arrived in a steamer with orders to
carry out these intentions. The narrative shall
be givezt in the words—of -the original corral:tannins:
tion

"You may imagine the figure presented by the
French captain of engineers when he received this order.
M. Caste is an excellent young man, who has all the
jollity and all the ir,Lnkness of a French soldier. That
which he had promised and that which he was obliged
to do contradict each other-so-point blank that he knew
not how to communica'is to Sefer Pacha the order which
he had just received, He thought tbat his best plan
would be to avoid 'meeting with the old man, and it was
only at the last moment that he caused him to be told
of what he was ordered to do on the following day, Oct.
28, viz —to set tire to the mines, and embark immedi-
ately after fur Sebastopol. That he might execute the
order of his superiors without any obstacle on the part
of the Circassians, lie invited Sefer Pacha to a,sist in
his operations. Sefer Pacha was at that time obliged
to keep his bed on account of severe indispo.ition.
When the melancholy news was communicated to
him, a bitter smile gave an indefinable expression
to his countenance, and his reply wag, 'Marshal
Pelissier has all piwer in bis !lauds ; why, then,
did he res irt to falsehood, and make rue psss at the close
of my days fora air n,tuon,; my countrymen ! Let my
chief of the staff do what is n cessary, A 9 to me, in
spite of my sickness, I desire net to be present when you
are destroying my patrimony. I wish to retire among
my countrymen, and when the destroyers shall have de-
parted let me know it.' The old man, bore down by
chagrin and disease, then mounted on horseback, and
went hence at three o'clock to a village where he was
born, while the colonels of the staff posted themselves
with the troops of the garrison and the two cannon to
restrain the Circassians, who were disposed to at!ack
the French.

Happily the strength of the place resisted the
efforts made for its destruction by the engineers,
and Anapa still remains little damaged—a memo-
rial of grief and neglect to the Circassians—a con-
venient fortress for the occupation of the Russians,
when the declaration of peace shall have given them
an opportunity of repairing their losses and retriev-
ing their errors.
But we wait for the return of the Duke of New-
castle to substantiate those statements—refute them
he cannot.

MEETING OF MIDDLESEX MAGISTRATES

Yesterday a special met ting of the magistracy of Mid-
dlesex was held at the Session•houtie in Clerkenwell—
first, to take into consideration the report of the Com-
mittee of Visitors of the County Lunatic Asylum at
Hanwell, and the plans for certain proposed alterations
at that institution, involving an expenditure of 67,3001. ;
and, secondly, to take into consideration the like report
from the Coltiey Hatch Asylum, and the plans of certain
proposed alterations for the enlargement of that esta-
blishment. Mr. Pownall presided.
The report from the asylum at Hanwell stated that.
throughout the year ending January last, the general
health of the patients of both sexes had been and con-
tinued to be, remarkably good, and that, though the
mortality was greater than in 1854, there had not been
the slighted cause for anxiety. The number of patients
admitted during the year was 151—males, 73 ; females,
78 ;—discharged cured, 16 males, 21 females ; deaths,
males 65, females 45. One male patient was killed by
another, and one female patient committed suicide by
hanging herself. Appended to the.report were plans of
the proposed alterations of the asylum.
Sir A. Y. SPEARMAN, Bart., said the plans which were
submitted to the Court with the report bad received the
most ample and careful consideration of the committee of
the asylum, of which he had the honour to tr-t, chairman ;
they bad been referred to a sub-committee for further
examination; and, finally, the general committee adopted
the plans of Mr. Harris, the architect, as most calculated
to carry out the object of the committee. Those Plans
were now submitted to the Court for its decisiona.wTentehraet

Mr. ARMSTRONG seconded the motion. The expen-
diture proposed was not lavish, but involved a very
important principle of economy, because they were i❑
dilemma, unless they adopted these alterations they
would have no alternative but to provide a third a,sylunt,
—Agreed to.

111;*. COTTRELL, with reference to the Colney Hatch
report, said, Educe the last Court-day, the Commissioners
in Lunacy had visited the asylum, and had made an
entry in the visiting-book in which they expressed an
opinion that the committee had not taken advantage of
all the space at present available in the asylum for the
reception of patier,t,;. A report had been subsequently '
received from the Commissioners on the same subject,
and therefore to give the committee an opportunity of
examining whether there was anything in the suggestions
of the Commissioners worth adcpting, ho proposed that
the consideration of the Colney Hatch Asylum report
be referred until the next Court-day.
This was adopted, awl a motion with respect to cer-
tain alterations at the Westminster House of Correction,
at an outlay of 11,0001., was also postponed, and the
Court then adjourned.

MR. BROOKE'S FAREIKELL BtiVEPTT4e
it
(From tite Melbounze Age)
• The hundred and twenty-third and final night
of Mr. Brooke's performing in this city was signal-
ised by the assemblage of one of the most crowded
and entl es of the season. The
aspect of Corpin's Olympic on Saturday evening •
. was such as to convey to the actor, who then took
his farewell benefit, an assure.nce that his popu-
larity had sustained no diminution-, that he pos-
sessed numerous and warm admirers among all
classes of the community, and that he would he
followed, on his retirement from the stage of th •
Olympic, by the respect and regrets of the play-
going public of Melbourne. And deservedly so ;
for his professional visit to this colony has been
productive of enjoyment to tens of thousands,
and his prospective departure will deprive the
Australian theatre of one of its brightest orna-
ments. His talent, aided by the enterprise of the
manager, and supported by se accomplished an
artiste as Miss Cathcart, and by actors awl actresses
of such ability as are comprised in the Olympia
company, has enabled the Australian public to
witness representations of the Shaksperian drama
in a style of completeness that has elevated the
theatres of the metropolis of Victoria to a level
with those of the capital of Great Britain.
The grey discrowned Lear, the melancholy and
philosophic Dane, the impetuous and unscrupu-
lous Richard, the fate-impelled Macbeth, tbe hard,
remorseless Shyleck, noble Othello, boisterous
Faulconbridge ; [Richelieu, Evelyn, and Claude
Melnotte ; tha Corsican Brothers ; Virginius,
Master Walter, and Julian St. Pierre; Petrre'do,
Beverly. and lago ; Captain Murphy Msgeire,
Felix G'Callagban, and the Irish Attorney ; Mat-
thew Elmure and Rory 0•M-re ;—what a diversity
of character is here, and what a masterly apprecia-
tion, not merely of the broader features but of the
minor idiosyncrasies of etch, has Mr. Brooke dis-
played in his impersonations of the whole. While he
has torcos 1 almost every cote in the gamut of the ras
sions, h's good toste and sound judgment have pre-
vented him from exaggerating vehemence of .
angn4go
into bombast, cr degrading humour into buffoonery. 118
hss been thoroughly succe sful, too, in broadly and
tinctly defining thikindividuality of every character be
assumed. Other actors of eminence may have possessed
voices of greater flex'bility and compass ; but few ba e
managed them with greater 'skill, and with a happier
subordination of tone to the vocal characteristics which
presumably belong to the part sustained, than Mr. Brooke
has done.

•

Na one character that he has sustained has rerninged
us of another. Each occupies a separate niche or isolated
pedestal. Nor, while availing IninSelf of the traditi',ns
of the stage, in regard to the " business" of the piece,
and of thes3 graces of elocution, " points," gestures, at-
titude, and by-play, of which the usage has been conse-
crated by illustrious pr cedent, has Mr. Brooke failed
to subject each character he has impersonated to a care-
ful and intelligent !study ; and, often detecting tweet
beauties which have escaped the attention of his prede.
cessone he has given us Dee' readinge and stamped both
his action and elocution with the charms of originality.
And this is high praise to any actor : rem,mb line; that
tte Saksperian drama, mere especially, has le en the
study of so many men of genius on the stage, as I of
such numberless analytical critics in the aloi-et.
The play selected by Mr. Brooke for his farewell be-
nefit was " Love's Sacrifice," which is not so grew, a
favourite with a Melbourne audience as with play-goers
in England : the actor's choice, however, was a wise
one, for there are few characters which admit of the ex-
hibition of more powerful and varied emotions, or in
which he more strongly excites and sustains the sympa-
thy and attention of the spectators. A detailed not ce of
the performance would simply b 3 one continuous
eulogy; and two lengthy for the space at our dis-
posal. and for the reader's -patience. In Miss
Cathcart, the loving and self-sacrificing daughter
found a representative, capable of breathing life
into the somewhat chilly character pourtrayed by
the dramatist, and of heightening the beauty of the
poet's verse, by the grace of the actress's elocution
and the charm of her manner. Mr. R. Younge's
Lafont was perfect. We saw some of the specta-
tors setting their teeth at him, and heard others
muttering their detestation of him. What higher
compliment could be offered to him ?
Mr. Brooke's first appearance on the scene ex-
cited a hurricane of applause: - .Yociferous mani-
festations of delight called him before the curtain
at the end of the third and fourth acts, and the
plaudits which accompanied the fall of the green
baize, at the termination of the drama, swelled
into a storm of approbation, when be once more
appeared, and led Miss Cathcart forward to share
in the ovation. As soon as the tumult had sub-
sided, Mr. Brooke advanced to the footlights and
took his farewell of the Olympic audience in the
following words :
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—The unwelcome hour has
at length arrived that must separate us. In the ordi-
, nary course of toy professional avocations, in visiting a
town for six or twelve nights, the task of saying "Fare-
well" is at all times a painful one. What my feelings
are upon the present occasion may easily be imsgin-d
when I reflect (with pride and satisfaction) that I have
been honoured with your patronage and euthus;aetic
eTeriValiSin 114:123 nights. (Cheers.) Thfscircuraetance
will, I make nu doubt, cause much surprise and !peen-
latioa in the mother country, and tend to advance this
colony not only in the gaud opinion of " the abstract
and brief chroniclers of the time," hut that of the whole
community. (Renewed cheers.) This success I must
attribute to your love of the legitimate drama ; to the
spirit and enterprise of the manager in the production
of it ; and to the talent which I have been surrounded;
for never during my career have I witnessed the pro-
ductions of Suakepeare placed upon the atagein such
rapid succession, and in so perfect a manner. (Great
applause.) It is a matter of regret that on the eve of
riy departure I should have been made the subject
of a gross attack from a soc'ety, the professieeal prin-
ciple of which is "The Support of the Legitimate
Drama.." That attack I now declare (as an act of
duty to myself) to be as false as cowardly, and as
oowardly as unjust. (Cheers) But, as Shakspt re
Say S-

"We live in the world's wile month,
Live scaudaliz'd aud foully pokua of."
"Who steals my purse, steals trash; 'tie something, nothing,
'Twas mine, 'tie his, and has been slave to thousands;
But he that filches from me my good name,
Robs me of that which not enriches him,
And makes me poor indeed."

(Cheers.)

I will, if you please, avail myself of this opportunity of
acknowledging the courtesy and attention of the gentle-
men connected with the press during my enga7ement.
To the indefatigable stage manager, Mr. R. Youoge,
I am indebted for much valuable assistance, and can-
not too highly commend his exertions in the drama's
cause, which have been most ably aided by the pencil
of that talent artist, Mr. William Pitt ; and my thanks
are also due to the ladies and gentlemen who have so
successfully co-operated with me. Ladies and gentle-
men, I will trespass no innger on your kindness, but
say in the language of the imm,,rtal bard—

-" Should we be taking. leave
As long a term as we have yet to live,
The loathness to depaz t would grow;",
" Our separation so abides and flies
That though residing bore goest yet with me,
And 1 hence flying still remain with thee."
And now, in the sincere hope that increasing prosperity
may attend the city of Melbourne, and wishing yon
collectively and individually health and happiness, I
most respectfully, and with every feeling of gratitude
say--" Farewell."
We could have wished that Mr. Brooke had not
fallen into the error of implicating a large body of
gentlemen in a censure passed upon an individual
writer of an injudicous piece of doggrel. The pro-
duction animadverted upon was not calculated to
injure a reputation so firmly established as that of
the tragedian ; and we are of opinion that the more
dignified course to have adopted would have been
au abstinence from anything like an ebullition of
angry feeling. We did not approve of either the
animus or the style of the doggrel ; we equally dis-
approve of the animus and the style of the re-
joinder.

At the conclusion of his adiirests, a shower of
bouquets fell at the feet of Mr. Brooke, and a
wreath of laurel was flung from the box occupied
by Miss Hayes and a play of friends,—.a graceful
tribute from the bright star of the lyric to that of
the legitimate drama.

Coppin's Spider Dance next sent the house into
convulsions of laughter, and his speech at the con-
clusion, with its allusions to the "iron-pot,"
" stew-pot," and the " head cook of the establish-
ment," were greeted with bursts of applause and
merriment.

---
The rattling farce of the "Garrick Fever" ter-
minated the evening's entertainment, and sent
everybody home in good humour.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE LONDON DOCKS.—On Wed-
nesday afternoon, shortly after 1 o'clock, an accident of
a most frightful character occurred at the London Docks
to afrespectable female named Maria Shand, aged 26
years. The deceased, with a young female (Agnes
Forman), and her brother, Captain D. Forman, and
several intimate friends, proceeded to the London Docks
to view the interior of the establishment, and subse-
quently they were invited to the fourth floor of No. 10
warehouse, to witness the process of working the hydrau-
lic machine used for the purpose of raising heavy weights,
which pass through several traps or openings in the
flooring. The deceased and her female companion sud-
denly belt the gentlemen, and walked to the aperture,
when they leaned over a low rail to look down at the
machinery at the basement, where the labourers were
employed, when the " lift" descended with terrible vio-
lence and crushed the head of the deceased in such a
fearful manner, that she expired in three minutes after-
wards. The deceased's head was nearly separated from
the body, which presented a melancholy spectacle. The
deceased was removed by the dock officers and the poll('
to the parochial undertaker's (Nlr. Scotcher) to await au
inquest. The deceased's companion, who was much in-
jured, was removed to the London Hospital, where Mr.
Ross, the house surgeon, rendered every assistance, but
very little hopes are entertained of her recovery. The
nfortunate deceased was to have been marred this Cl/17.
