PUNCH,

Kossuth comes in fora vetylandaome compliment
this week in the pages of our facetious contemporary.
The principal illustration represents the " Welcome"
accorded to that great man by England—Britannia
introducing him to the most lively old gentleman in
her dominions, the national lion rubbing up against
the beg of the exile like some colossal semblance of
an ecstatic cat, while Master Toby is making a sa-
laam, not unlike the first half of a summersault, by
-way of profound obeisance. The artist may easily
be recognised as that same comical John Tenniel,
who has for some months been endavouring to
compensate us for the loss of our inimitable
Richard Doyle by a series of very ingenious and
extravagant " initial capitals." Bloomerism, by the
way, is rather tolerably excoriated by the caustic
pencil of John Leech, the pleasantest of our periodical
caricaturists, In one sketch he gives a ;group of
Bloomer gentesses lounging, smoking, and drinking
in front of the counter of a public-house—in :mother
a specimen of the delightful results of the change of
costume in a Bloomer gallantess popping the ques-
tion to a very lackadaisical gentleman—and in yet
another an example of the superiority likely to be
assumed by the then unfair sex in the event of any
such petticoatical revolution. Several of the literary
squibs and jokes contributed to the same current
number of Punch, are snore than usually droll—as,
for instance, the complaint made by the " Appetite,
of All Nations," and
the well-known ex-Unprotected.

WILSONS UTILITARIAN SERIES OF

DIARIES FOR 1852.
Messrs. Wilson and Son, of Cheapside, have just
published their 61 Utilitarian Series of Diaries " for
the ensuing year. They are of various sizes, and
each size may be had either bound as a book for the
table or desk, or done up as a neat pocket-book. The
arrangement of the Diary is admirable.

On Saturday, says a Havre journal, as three men
were returning in a boat from the Cape de la Heve to Havre,
with a cargo of lead, thep suddenly discovered that the boat
had sprung a leak. One of them, named Briant, proposed to
throw part of their cargo overboard, but this was opposed by
the others, who thought they could arrive at their destina-
tion without danger. After a time, however, they changed
their opinion, and were proceeding to lighten the boat when
she suddenly went down. Briant, who is an old man of 60,
swam towards the shore, and after great difficulty reached it
in safety, but the other two were drowned.

PORTS AND HARBOURS.

It may not perhaps be generally known that a Bill
" For the better preservation and regulation of the
Ports and Harbours in the United Kingdom," was, a
few days prior to the close of the last session of Par-

liameni, laid on the table of the House of Commons
by Sir F. Baring, for consideration during the recess.
Copies of the Bill are, we understand, in course of dis-
tribution amongst hose parties and communities
whose interest is sought to be improved by it; and
for the information of our readers we proceed to ex-
plain the nature of its provisions.
The seaboard of the United Kingdom is indented
with innumerable small but useful creeks, under no
local management or conservancy, and are permitted
to remain in a state of nature unimproved and un-
cared for, while a trifling sum judiciously expended
on their improvement might prove a lasting benefit
to these creeks and their immediate neighbourhood.
There is no remedy for this evil but the costly one
of procuring an Act of Parliament for each locality.
It is proposed by this Bill, that on a memorial, signed
by a certain number of ratepayers of the district, pre-
sented to the Admiralty, a local conservancy board
may be constituted by an order of her Majesty in
Council, with authority to levy a small tonnage due
on shipping frcquenting the harbour, and likewise to
borrow money on mortgage of the dues, with a view
to procuring a fund to carry out the necessary im-
provements, and to pay a harbour-master. It also
provides for the removal of sunken wrecks,and imposes
a heavy penalty on all persons depositing material of
any description within the limits of the tide ; thus
consolidating the several powers vested by Parliament
in the Admiralty. _ _ _

Such are the principal heads of the Bill, and it i 3
important to observe they materially differ in effect
from those embodied in a Bill which was introduced
in the session of 184 G, hut which was not proceeded
with.

Without committing ourselves to an opinion on the
merits of this particular Bill, we think that much may
he done by some such means as it proposes, for bene-
fitting the trading and shipping interests of the em-
pire. In other words, we consider this measure
step in the right direction.

" The harbour and roadstead' of Trieste, including
the Bay of Aluggia, as far as Punta Grosse, is open
to the ships-of-war of friendly Powers, but under the
following regulations :
" A. There shall not be admitted, at any one time,
within gunshot of the harbour batteries, more than
one large or two small (namely, complements under
300 men) sailing-vessels or steamers or the same flag,
excepting in case of a previous sanction obtained of
the Government in question from the Austrian Go-
vernment.

. _
" Owing to the local position of Trieste and the
Bay of Muggia, as well as of Venice and the coast
therein included, stress of weather cannot come into
operation, and such, therefore, cannot be considered a
valid excuse.

" B. Each such ship or steamer-of-war shall pro-
ceed and anchor in such place only as shall be pointed
out by the harbour authorities, and, should a ship be
compelled by circumstances to let go her anchor pre-
viously to receiving such information, she must (if
deemed necessary by the harbour authorities, accord-
ing to the instructions) afterwards change her berth
agreeably to such notice.
"C. If the armament of a ship allow of it, and
particularly if she should be of a class which usually
salutes, such ship should forthwith salute the Imperial
Austrian flag, which salute will be returned with an
equal number of guns.
" D. On the arrival of a ship-of-war of a foreign
flag, her commander must acquaint the governor or
military commandant of the cause of his visit, as also
of the probable duration of his stay ; and a ship must
not, without necessity and a previously obtained per-
mission from the governor or commandant, prolong
her stay beyond the time which has been decided on
with the governor or commandant, according to the
declared object of the visit.
"E. Foreign men-of- war will not be allowed to
fire morning or evening guns in the harbours.
" F. With the exception of officers and subordinate
officers who usually wear side-arms, the crews of
foreign men-of-war must only land unarmed and in
small parties.

throw part of their cargo overboard, but tuis was opposed by
the others, who thought they could arrive at their destina-

their opinion, and were proceeding to lighten the boat when

APELVHI THEATRE.

Mr. Wright, who has been suffering for some months
from a bronchial complaint, which affected the voice and
quite interrupted his pleasant duties as one of the chief,
it not the very chief, histrionic amusor of the play-going
folks of London, is happily so far recovered as last night
to have resumed his post, making his re-appearance as
Paul Pry. The Adelphi without Wright can hardly be
said to be the Adelphi at all, so the enthusiastic nature
of the greeting received by the popular favourite may be
imagined. At the first sound of his voice in the coediss•s
there was a partial outbreak of applause, and when ho
did come on, the acclamations were deafening, and re-
newed again and again ere the audience settled down
after the noisy welcome. Mr. Wright's voice is still a
little husky, not at all disagreeably so, however, and he
played with his usual comic verve and effect.

HYA,AI and CO.'S
COATS DRESS and SURTOUT
Tex'le excellence, and novelty and superiority of design, as dis-
played in lIYAM and Co.'s Dress and Surtout Coats, have elicited a
large share of approval, and arc daily meeting with extensive sup-
port. Exactness of lit without restraint, and ease without
exuberance of cloth, have been made especial points in these
articles ; and nothing has been omitted in the manufacture of
lIYAM and Co.'s dress which could in any way tend to tlfe perfec-
tion of personal appearance. lIYAM and Co., 86, Oxford-street,

DRUR,Y-LANE THEATRE,

M. JULLIEN'S CONCERTS.

These concerts, which, we regrjttosay, aro rapidly
thawing to a close, still continue to attract crowds every
night, and M. Jullien's new Indian Quadrille bids fair
to become as popular as his Exhibition Quadrille. As
we predicted, I3ottesini is the lion of the concerts this
season. His wonderful performance on the double bass
is listened to every night with breathless attention, and
is invariably encored.

SOIREES MYSTERIEUSES OF M. LANGLOIS.

at
last evening. M. Langlois is one of the most expert and
ingenious of escarnoteurs, his apparatus is magnificent,
and all the tricks are prepared with a neatness
and dexterity which are perfectly astonishing. His
attendant was a lady dressed in the Bloomer
costume who, at the conclusion of the per-
formance, was spirited away a/a Madame Robin. The
performance of M. Langlois was followed by the exhi-
bition of the automaton rope dancer; after which the
Indian Djalma exhibited some extraordinary feats of
juggling, and was mach applauded. He is certainly
by far the cleverest juggler we have ever seen. The
performances concluded by the exhibition of a series of
beautiful dissolving views. The hall was crowded.

MRS. T. C. FOSTER'S LECTURE.
This talented and fascinating lady repeated her lee-
ture on the female costume of the last hundred years at
the Hanover-square Rooms, last evening. She was re-
ceived most favourably by an audience more numerous
than on the former occasion. Mrs. Foster is by no
means to be confounded with the vulgar herd of Bloomer
lecturers who are well fitted to flaunt in front of a penny
booth. In her address there was much of interesting
as well as amusing matter, and her sketches of the va-
rious absurdities of fashion were given with spirit and
good taste. Although we cannot approve of even her
modification of the costume attempted to bo introduced
of late among our fair countrywomen, so far as the
pettiloons are concerned, it cannot be pronounced de-
cidedly offensive, and her observations have the merit of
being rational in the main, and wholly untainted with
the trashy viragoism of the common spouters on
Bloomerism, who we imagine are by this time fairly
done up."

course of the evening sang several Irish songs in so quaint
and humourous a manner, that in each instance her songs
were re-demanded. Her rich soprano voice was heard to
great advantage.
MYSTERIOUS DISCOVERY.—On Saturday informa-

last, Mr. Gilbert, superintendent of the Kent constabulary,
dug up from a swamp in Park-road, parish a Pembury, a
quantity of black silk, apparently portions of a woman's
dress, apron, vi,•ite, and drawn bonnet, and also a child's

were of a fashiou in vogue ten or twelve years ago. Por-

On Saturday evening Mr. J. W. Pyne, the deputy-

33 years. It appeared by the evidence that deceased
was in the service of Mr. Shortus, china-warehouse.
man, of Crispin-street, Spitalfields, and on Monday,
the 17th instant, while lowering a crane, the handle of
the machine clipped from his grasp, when he endea-
voured to stop the wheel with his left hand, whereby
his little finger was cut off. He was removed to the
hospital, where mortification of the arm supervened,
causing absorption of putrid matter into the blood, no
doubt, resulting from the injury to the finger.—Vet-

purity of moral ; and for all these undoubted good qualities of a work
of fiction, we welcome the author of the ' Fair Carew,' and thank
her for her contribution to the public's pleasant readlug."—Literary
