'TETE SUN, LONDON,

HAYIVIARKET THEATRE.
A translaLion of the lively French opera comique,
La Ileine d'un Jour, was produced here last eve Ling,
tinder the title of The Queen of a Day. The music,
however, is not that of Adolphe Adam. One of the
moat promising of our young English composers, Mr.
Edward Fitzwilliam, has chosen this as his libretto,
and has exhibited such a delicious flow of melody,
and such a thorough knowledge of orchestral
effects, that we are compelled to say that
the music is superior, much superior to the
libretto. The story of the opera may be summed up
litterally in a sentence. A little milliner (Miss
13. ne), affianced to a Dover sailor (Mr. Harrison),
ni passed off by an intriguing cavalier for the affi-
anced wife of Charles 11., in order to distract the at-
tention of the still existing Puritan authorities from
the real dignitary, who has landed on another part of
the coast; the deguiseinent, of course, calling forth
the ordinary mystifiations and perplexities common
to such cases, leading a time-serving old landlord
kmr• Weiss) to keep alternately turning Royalist
44(1 Republican as the scale seems to incline to
either party, and of course bewildering the lover,
Who is not in the secret, and is tormented with all
Sorts of doubts and suspicions as to the identity of
!,118 pretended Queen, a convenient announcement of
_a‘ne Re3toration, in the nick of time, cutting the Gor-
dian knot of all difficulties, whether of politics or love.
4148 Louisa Pyne acted the little milliner with great
spirit and archness, and she sang the florid music of
the part with infinite delicacy and taste. Mr. W.
orison was exactly suited in some robust ballads,
which he sang with great vigour ; and Weiss was,
al he always is, artist-like and sensible. The or-
hestra, under the able guidance Mellon, was
all that could be desired. The encores were nume-
l'°llB) and the success was complete. We sincerely
congratulate Mr. Fitzwilliam on the well-deserved
fsuccess of this, his first opera, and shall watch his
hutare career with interest. We expect from him
creafter great things.

SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.—
FLOWER SHOW.
An extra miscellaneous dahlia and hollyhock flower
sb"? was held yesterday at the Surrey Gardens, in
ITttnernoration of the opening of the establishment.
raFe morning, like all flower-show days, gave pro-
false of determined wet, but before noon the sky,
-Lared,
and the sun shone out as the sun might rea-
licrnably be expected to shine in the middle of Au-.
g118t; The flowers exhibited were very splendid—the
'as and hollyhocks remarkably so, and there were
:nie Mexican plants of exceeding beauty. Towards
evening the attendance of spectators was unusually
;:eet--we would be afraid to say how many thou-

TI E IWYAL VICTORIA YACHT-
CLUB REGATTA.
RYDE, WEDNESDAY EVENING —TN) Isle of Wight
ibis day was the scene of immense attraction, from the
e.onou:cement that had been made that her Most Gra-
rifujs.sty would honour the Royal Victoria Yacht-
Club Regatta with her presence, and every preparation
was made to receive her with_ due honours, and to ren-
(ler the display of yachts and other vessels worthy of
•he occasion. Amongst the yachts which studded the
Channel we observed the Wyvern, his Grace the Duke
of Marlborough; the Herminia, the Earl of Ellesmere;

The vessels lying off the Island displayed their hon-
_ _

day colours, and several of them were furnished with
Hands of music, who played some choice music through-
out the day, and the town band was stationed in the
Prince of Wales steamer, who played some favourite
overtures.
The pier was crowded by a large number of fashion-
ables, amongst whom were his Grace the Duke of Marl-
borough, the Earl of Ellesmere, Major Graham, Sir
Robert Alexander, Sir H. Lushington, the Honourable
Mrs. Villiers, R. Pollock, Esq., Mr. and Mrs. Ainslie
Hoare, J. G. Marshall, Lq., M.P. ; the Honourable
Mrs. Cunliffe, W. Erskine May, Esq , the Dowager

modore of the Royal Victoria Yacht Club Mr. and
Mrs. Kemble, Major Colborne, J. Clayton, Esq., Captain
Greenland, Mr. Bruce and Lady Wray, Colonel Dawkin,
the Hon. E. Stephens, &c., &c.
The first raca set down on the card was a prize of
100 t, for yachts of all nations, for which the following
were entered :
Bacchante, 80 tons, Benjamin H. Jones, Esq.
Arrow, 84 tons, Thomas Chamberlayne, Esq.
Loelia, 75 tons, Twyeden Hodges, Esq.
Alarm, 193, tons, Joseph Weld, Esq.
Sibilla, 250 tons, James Close, Esq.
Cygnet, 35 tons, Hedworth Lambton, Esq.
Brilliant, 393 tons, George Holland Ackers, Esq.
Heroine, 35 tons, Robert Bell, Esq.
Secret, 25 tons, Robert Bell, juo., Esq.
Mona, 82 tons, Lord Alfred Paget.
The course round the Isle of Wight; outside the
Sand Head and No Man Buoys, the Nab Light-ship,
and in completing the course all yachts must pass be-
tween the starting vessel and Ryde Pier. The Sailing
Committee, who were on board the Earl of Yarborough
steam-yacht, moored off the Pier-head, consisted of
the Commodore, the Vice-Commodore, Captain
Campbell Lock, R.N., Captain W. Green, Captain
George Marshall, RN., Albert J. Hamburgh, Esq.
Several vessels from Portsmouth, Cowes, Southamp-
ton, &c., arrived during the day, and poured into the
town several hundreds of persons, a large proportion, no
doubt, being drawn to the place from the expected visit
of her Majesty.

The weather in the early part of the morning was re-
markably fine, with a strong breez9, but at about 11
o'clock a general lull came on, followed by some smart
showers, and in spire of every effort, and the utmost
anxiety of the sailing committee, no start until 340
could be obtained, in consequence of the dead calm that
prevailed, for the sea most perversely almost presented
a glassy surface. However, at the time above named, a
gentle bre€ze sprung up from the west, and the com-
mittee determined upon making a start, under the most
untoward appearances, rather than disappoint the nu-
merous and fashionable company that had assembled to
witness the departure. The following vessels appeared
at the station:—
Bacchante, 80 tons, B. H. Jones, Esq.—Blue, white

arrow.
Arrow, 84 tons, T. Chamberlayne, Esq.
LDelia, 75 tons, T. Hodges, Esq.
Alarm, 193 tons, J. Weld, Esq.—No. 8, chequered.
Sibilla, 250 tons, J. Close, Mg.—Neapolitan flag.
Cygnet, 35 tons, H. Lambon, Esq.—Ram's head.
Brilliant, 393 tons, G. H. Ackers, Esq.—Red pendant,
white cross.
Secret, 25 tons, R. Bell, Esq.—Blue and red diagonal.
Mona, 82 tons, Lord Alfred Paget.—Red, yellow, blue.
At starting, in consequence of the light state of the
wind, the small vessels were the first to get under weigh,
the heavier yachts moving from their posts with great
nifile.olty, End some of them with their balloon jibs flap-
ping idly in the wind. At Oldcastle Point, nearly op-
posite Osborne House, the Cygnet was taking the lead
by at least a mile; but, of course, at this early period
the success of any particular vessel was very problema-
tical, the course being nearly 70 miles, and en the back of
the island great changes of position were anticipated.
The match was accompanied by several vessels, with a
very crowded company, but in consequence of the lengthy
course, they cannot be expected, together with the
yachts, until a late hour tomorrow morning, to which
period we must defer our report of the timing of the
vessels at the various points, with the winner of this
valuable prize.

The next was a race for Amateur Galleys, first prize,
51. ; second prize,l 31. The following boats were
entered .
Attempt, George Dashwood—Red and white.
Phooka, Star Club of Cowes—Red, white star.
Unknown, E. Ratsey—Red.
Eclipse, M. Ratsey—Red, white eclipse.
Wave, Charles Stevens—Blue.
Tile first three were only started, and after some very
excellent rowing the prizes were decided as follow:

Victoria Yacht Club. The 504 prize cup is also offered
for cutters, the property of members of the Rpyal Vic-
toria Yacht Club, about 75 tons to 105 tons, 0. M.

Last night there was a grand display of fireworks on
the pier, and various other entertainments were pro-
vided for the numerous visitors.

DEATH FROM FIGHTING NEAR DRIFFIELD.—TWO
men, strangers to the locality, but known as Thomas Brock-
lesby, alias " Shepherd Tom," and " Ginger," had been
working some time among the farmers in the neighbourhood
of Langtoft, in the East Riding of York. Ginger, it appears,
was of a very quarrelsome disposition, andßrocklesby and he
met at a public-house on the 4th inst., where they quarrelled,
but were parted. Some days afterwards they met in the
same place, and Ginger said he would fight anybody in the

and quite insensible, and he died on the following evening.
An inquest was held upon the body on Friday last, before
Mr. E. D. Conyers, when the surgeon who attended the de-
ceased stated that there were marks of bruises upon his fore-
head and temples, and that, on making a post mortem exami-
nation, he found a considerable quantity of extravasated
blood corresponding with these external injuries, together
with appearances indicating the rupture of a large vessel in
the head, which would be quite sufficient to account for
death. A verdict of manslaughter was returned against
Ginger, who made his escape on learning the fatal result of
the fight, and is still at large. Deceased was nearly 50 years
old, while Ginger was not more than 25.
THE MURDER BY A SHOEMAKER AT MANCHESTER.
—James Macnamara was brought up yesterday morning at
the Manchester Borough Court for further examination, on
the charge of, murdering a man named Ellis, by striking him
evidence on the head with a hammer. The was substan-
tially the same as that given before the coroner, except that
Ann Oldfield, the keeper of the pablic-house where the quar-
rel took place, asserts that deceased struck the prisoner first.
This agrees with part of the pri'oner's own statement to the
officer who apprehended him. The prisoner was committed
for trial at the assizes.

Cardinal Antonio Maria Cadolini, Bishop of An-
cona, died there on the Id ihotaut.
