LYCEUM THEATRE.

Mr. Flexmore, the celebrated pantomimist, took a be-
fit at this theatre last night. The performances cam:-
prised melodrama, farce, ballet, concert, and pantomime
The first piece was " Black-eyed Susan ;" the character
of William being filed by Professor Anderson, whose
recent misfortune at Covent-garden does not appear to
have diminished, but rather increased, his popularity
with the audiences of this theatre, the scene of long and
deserved success. His performance of the warm-hearted
British sailor was a piece of genuine acting, that elicited
the warmest sympathies of the audience. The minor
characters were well filled, and we may especially notice
Miss Murray's charming performance of Black-eyed
Susan. Mr. Shalders (Doggras*), Mr. Harry Pearson
(Gnatbrain), and Mr. Hudspeth (Jacob Twig) fully sus-
tained their reputation. Miss Lewis personated Dolly
Mayflower with admirable success ; nor must we forget
Mr. Flexinore's Hornpipe, which was veal-Oily encored.
At the close of the piece, Professor Anderson and Miss
Murray were called before the curtain. The farce of
His First Champagne followed. The ballet of the Spanish
Dancers afforded an opportunity to Mademoiselle Auriol
and Mr. Flexmora of exhibiting their terpsichorean
abilities in the execution of some of the most rapid and
graceful of the national dances of Spain. A miscellane-
ous concert (the musical arrangements of which reflect
great credit on the able management of Mr. lianoway,
A.M.) was pucceeded by a selection from the comic
scenes of the Covent-garden pantomime, Ts Belle Al.
liance, the drolleries and burlesque acting of which con.
eluded the amusements of the evening. Flexosore's ex-
traordinary phenomenon, " La Petite Leon," obtained a
double encore in the pas M'Gregor ; a high but well
merited compliment to the very juvenile performer. The
bowie was well filled, and we trust, upon the whole,
satisfactory alike to the beneficiaire and the audience.

EGYPT.

A letter from Alexandria of the 22d ult., in the
Constitutionnel, says :—" The Viceroy of Egypt is
desirous, at the same time ',that he opens the
Isthmus of Suez to the peaceful operations of all
nations, of solving the great problem of African
geography—that of the sources of the Nile. He has
manifested his intention to confide the command
of a new expedition to Count d'Escayrac de Lau-
ture, member of the Central Commission of the
Geographical Society, a man well known for his
travels in the interior of Africa, and for his
works on that part of the world. This expedition
will take place under the most favourable condi-
tions. It will, moreover, have in its favour the
experience of the preceding ones under Selim-Ca
pitan, and in which MM. d'Arnaud, Sabatier,
Werne, and Thibaut took part. Halim
brother of the Viceroy, who has requested to have
the general government of the Soudan, with a de-
sire to open to science these distant countries and
to promote their civilisation, will powerfully con-
tribute to secure the success of the enterprise."

RUSSIA.

A- letter from St. Petersburg of the 3d, in the
Debais, says :—" Mournful accounts are constantly
arriving from the Crimea, where epidemic diseases
appear to be committing as many ravages as ever.
Typhus fever has recently carried off many young.
men who are serving as volunteers in the Crimea,
and who were not well prepared for supporting the
fatigues which they have had to encounter. A
great number of medical men, many of them
foreigners, have also fallen victims to this malady.
It is said that the ranks of the army have been so
thinned by disease that, even should peace be con-
cluded, it will be necessary to keep all the militia, in
order to fill up the blanks, so as to keep the army
even on a peace footing. Different deliberations
have recently taken place on the subject of affairs in
Asia, but they have not lei to any result. However
important the taking of Kars may be, it is not the
less true that the Russian army has been compelled
to retire on its own territory, whilst th-e army of
Omer Pacha still occupies a part of Mingrelia, and
in strong positions, although it is decimated by
disease. The question to be decided is, whether,
in the event of peace not being concluded, the
Russians shall attack Omer Pacha or return on
Kars. If the latter, they would advance with an
enemy's army on their flank."

HOUSE OF LORDS—(This Evening.)
The Low CHANCELLOR took hie sent on the wool

TORTURE IN INDIA.

The Earl of ALBEMARLE gave notice that on
Monday, the 14th April, he should present a petition
from certain inhabitants of Madras, complaining of the
infliction of torture by the officers of the Government,
attributing the practice to the weight of the assessment
required for the Government revenue, and praying for
protection. The noble lord said it was afterward his
intention to resolve, "That, by the report laid on the
table of the house, it is proved to our conviction that
torture, or the infliction of pain by way of punishment,
or to induce confession, or for the purposes of extortion,
has been practised ars! continnes to be practised by native
officers for the realisation of the public revenues, or in
the administration of the criminal law, to a greater or
less extent throughout the presidency of Madras. That
the aforesaid torture, although clandestinely practised,
has been known to the constituted authorities in India,
as shown by public documents. That this house
views the practice of torture, extending ever many
millions of her Majesty's Government, whether as an
instrument for the realisation of the public revenue, or
in the administration of the criminal law, as repugnant
to the principles of national justice, abhorrent to
humanity, and highly disgraceful to the character of
the nation. That this house pledges itself to
adopt the most speedy and effectual means in its power
for the utter annihilation of the odious and barbarous
practice of torture within the abovementioned
Government and Presidency of Madras." The
noble lord gave notice that it was his inten-
tion, immediately after the Easter recess, to inquire
of her Majesty's Ministers whether they had received
any account from the Government of Madras respecting
14 cases of torture within the presidency in a particular
district, inflicted at as recent a date as July, 1855, by a
Government collector, in order to realise some overn-
ment dues, and in relation to a certain tax. The noble
lord then gave notice of his intention to move for a
series of other papers, relating to the practice of tor-
ture in Madras.

THE MISING STEAMER PACIFIC.

The New York Herald, of the 27th of Feb. sale :
"The steamer Alabama, which was sent out by E. K.
Collins, on the 9th inst., in search of the Pacific, returned
to port on Sunday morning, having been absent 2 weeks.
She brings no tidinre of the lost vessel. The Alabama
proceeded as far as Cape Race, where she met with large
fields of ice, which prevented her further progress. She
took a zigzag course, following the usual track of the
Collins steamers ; sailed round Sable Island, from
thence to Cape Race, and, returning, put into Hali-
fax, from which port she sailed on Thursday morn-
ing last. She spoke thirty vessels during the guise,
front none of which could she gather any news
relative to the Pacific. Before reaching Cape
Race, the Alabama ran for about eight hours
through a field of ice, which is described as pre-
senting a very beautiful and singular appearance. The
ice was broken up in small and mostly circular pieces,
from one to two feet in diameter, and being encircled by
a ring of snow, they presented the appearance of myriads
of plates spread out for a grand banquet in honour of
Neptune. On reaching Cape Race, however, the ice
gradually grew more compact, until it became almost
Impassable. It is thought by some that the Pacific, in
attempting to force her way-through one of these fields
of ice, may have broke down, and still remains fast in
the ice. If this be the case, the government ship Arctic
which is now in search of her, and which was built for
an ice-boat, will probably ba able tq search her out. The
Alabama could make but little headway where the ice
was compact, and she tore a large portion of the copper
from her bottom in the slight attempts she did make."

THE BALTIC.

HAMBURG, March. 11.—The flying squadron has
proceeded on to the further part of the Baltic, and
probably may extend itsvisit to the Gulf of Finland
if not prevented by the ice, large quantities of
which 'are floating about at a considerable distance
from the coast, thereby rendering any passage for
the vessels extremely' dangerous.
We read in the Independance Beige, under date
Hamburg, 9th inst.:—" According to letters re-
ceived this morning from Kiel, it appears that the
English Government has resolved to reinforce by
several ships of the line the blockading squad-
ron, limited at first to two frigates and four
corvettes. These letters state that several
liners, which are to be under Commodore Wat-
son's orders, are daily expected at Kiel, and that
the frigate Euryalus has been directed to await in
that part the arrival of those reinforcements. The
naval force assembled at the Danish island of Moen
will accordingly only consist of four corvettes or-
dered there from Elsinore, and the 50-gun frigate
Imperieuse, on board of which the Commander of
the squadron has hoisted his flag. The English Com-
modore, as well as all the naval officers, who went
ashore during their recent visit to Kiel, publicly ma-
nifested th eir displeasure at the prospect of theconclu-
sion of peace. They openly avowed their anxiety for
the continuation of the war and a third campaign,

REGISTRATION ACT (SCOTLAND).

In reply to Mr. ALEX. HASTIL
Lord DUNCAN said that the cost of the books for
carrying into effect the registration act b Scotland was
3,0001. The charge for those books now averaged
about 2,0001. per annum. There was now a great im-
provement in the cost of those books for the present
year in comparison with those for 1355. The total cost
of carrying into effect the registration act in Scotland
amounted to 18,0001., with 3,0001. for postage, which
was merely drawing from one pablic department and
paying over to another.

THE FALL OF KARS.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH, pursuant to notice,
asked the noble lord the Under-Secretary for Foreign
Affairs whether the omissions in the papers produced
upon the subject of the capitulation of Kars, to which he
had called attention on a previous evening, would be
supplied ?
Lord WODEHOUSE was understood to say it was
unusual for the Government to comply with such a
request.
The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH expressed his stir-
Prise that the Secretary for War had not given the ex-
planation on this subject. It was perfectly well
known that before the investment of Kars
nothing whatever was done by the allies for the
defence of the place, end now he wished to know what
had been done by them after the fortress had been in-
vested. During the last war the Government never
made the slightest objection to lay the amplest informa-
tion with respect to military affairs before Parliament.
In reply to the Earl of MALMESBURT,
Lord WODEHOUSE stated that a correspondence
had taken place between her Majesty's Government and
the Turkish Government with respect to General Wil-
liams,

ASTLEY'SAMPIIITHEAT.RE.

The extraordinary feats of the performing elephants
still continue to attract immense audiences at this
world•renowned place of amusement. We hear that
great preparations are being made for Easter. Mr. W.

at Sadler's-wells Theatre during Passion Week, and re-
turns to St. Martin's-ball on Easter Monday to com-
mence a second season, no doubt to be as successful as
the first.

PURCHASE IN THE ARMY.

Mr. EWART inquired of the First Lord of the Trea-
sury whether the commission about to be appointed on
the system of purchase in the army would have power
to inquire into the system of promotion, and the sys-
tems of education and examination on appointment and
promotion adopted in foreign armies ?
Lord PALMERSTON said that in the investigation
alluded to an inquiry must of necessity be made into the
system of foreign countries.
IRON PLATE FOR GUN•BOATS.

Sir G. TYLER, asked the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty whether any experiments had been made as to
the relative power of resistance between hammered and
rolled iron plates for the construction of gun-boats ; and
if so, whether there was any objection to state the.re-
sult of those experiments ?
Sir C. WOOD said that the rep3rt had not yet been
made to the Government.
ITALY AND SARDINIA.

Mr. BOWYER asked the First Lord of the Treasury
whether there was any truth in the report that the at-
tention of the Paris Conference would be directed to the
affairs of Italy ; and, also, whether the Sardinian
Government had suggested or requested that any and
what matters of Italian politica might engage the atten-
tion of the Conference ?

Lord PALMERSTON declined to give any answer
to the questions.

PRUSSIA.

Mr. DISRAELI asked a question relative to a ru-
mour that was in circulation in regard to Prussia having
been invited to take part in the Paris Conferences, and
who were the distinguished indi►iduals that were to re•
present that country at the Conferences ?
Lord PA.LNIERSTON declined to answer the ques-
tion.

THE BALTIC FLEET.

Sir C. NAPIER, who spoke from the front seat
of the Opposition benches, moved for a select committee
to inquire into the conduct of the Baltic fleet in
1854 and 1855, aid in doing so he said that lie had
been in the service upwards of 56 years. During that
time he had always been ready to serve his country in
any part of the world, and he believed he had done so.
When he received the command of the Baltic Fleet on
25th February, 1854, he called on Lord Clarendon and
other members of the Government, and informed them
of the low state of the navy. Sir James Graham, who
was then at the head of the Admiralty, declined, how-
ever, to seo him. He admitted that the Government
afterwards used strenuoss exertions to remedy that state
of things. Sir Charles then entered into some details
relative to his command, and in the course of his
remarks said he should pass over the banquet at the
Reform Cleb—(laughter)—where so many fine speeches
were made that the people of this country were wrought
up to so high a state of excitement and expectation that
if he had been so fortunate as to have taken the
Emperor Nicholas a prisoner they would have
been dissatified and have said he ought to have taken
St. Petersburgh also. (Laughter.)

FRANCE.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.
The following is the last bulletin issued relative
to Prince Jerome :

12th, 8 a.m.-11 rather marked alleviation in the
principal symptoms has set in.
By a decree in the Afoniteur, Mme. Bizot, widow
of General Bizot, of the Engineers, who was mor-
tally wounded before. Sebastopol, and Mme. do
Brandon, widow of the colonel of the 50th Regi-
ment of the line, who was killed at that place, have
been named to thel functions of sub-gouvernantes
of the imperial children of France.
The Al or tom- publishes a decree promoting Ge-
neral Maneque and Chef d'Esoadron Robinet of
the Imperial Guard, to the rank of officers in the
Legion of Honour, and 54 officers and non-commis-
sioned officers in the same force to that of knight.
Another decree confers the military medal on 237
non-commissioned officers and privates of the Im-
perial Guard.
A letter from Paris of the 10th, in the Lidepen-
dance of Brussels, under the signature of " Y,"
who has generally been found well-informed on the
subject of the congress, states that everything is
going on in the most satisfactory manner, and that
peace is likely to be announced at a more early
period than is generally imagined. The letter
adds :

" I will not repeat to you—what every person
knows—that Count Orloff speaks with admiratiap
of the •Emperor Napoleon. In conversing a day or
two ago of the state of affairs with an eminent personage
belonging to the French Government, the count said to
him—'The greatest regret of my life, now that I know
the Emperor Napoleon, is that my deceased master, the
Emperor Nicholas, had not been acquainted with him
also. If he bad only seen him for one half hour, not
only would there have been no war, but a friendly inter-
course 'would have been established between the two
sovereigns, for the Emperor Napoleon ha 3 precisely the
qualities which would have exercised an influence over
the mind of the Emperor Nicholas.' "

THIRD READINGS.

The Mutiny Bill, the Marine Mutiny Bill, the Con-
solidated Fund (26,000,0000 B:11, and the Drainage
Advances Act Amendment Bill were read a third time
and passed.

MARRIAGE WITH A DECEASED WIFE'S
SISTER.

Earl ST. GERMANS brought in a bill for the legal
cation of marriage with a deceased wife's sister.

The bill was read a first time.
JUDICIAL STATISTICS.

Lord BROUGHAM rose for the purpose of resuminr
the debate upon the resolutions he had laid before the
house on the 3.1 instant. The noble and learned
'ord urged the importance of correct information
on the subject. France was not the only
c,4untry which was superior to this in judicial
statistics. Belgium and the Sardinian states were
also provided with accurate judicial statistics, and he
thought the happiest effects would arise to this country
by a like system beisg adopted. The noble lord con-
cluded by movinz the resolutions on the subject.

The LORD CHANCELLOR said the- resolations
Should leave their most serious consideration. Of course
he could say nothing further at present.
EDUCATION.
In answer to the.. Earl of SHAFTESBURY,

The Dal of GRANVILLE explained the various
parts of the bill he had introduce l into their lordships'
house with respect to education, but he thought it
would le prudent before they proceeded any further with
the measure to avert the result of the resolutions of
Lerd J. Russell in the other house.

The Earl of HARDWICKE called the attention of
the noble lord to the system of education for the army
and navy.
Earl GRANVILLE said the Government were
perfectly aware of the importance of the subject.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY said he believed there
were upwards of two millions of children uneducated, but
it must be remarked that there were facili ties for educating
half as many more children as now attended the school?.
He thought the Government would have to attempt
compulsory education.
The subject then dropped.
Their lordships shortly aftarwards adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—Crhis Evening.;
The SPBAKER took the chair at the usual hour.

EGYPT.

A letter from Alexandria of the 22d ult., in the
Constitutionnel, says :—" The Viceroy of Egypt is
desirous, at the same time that he opens the
Isthmus of Suez -to the peaceful operations of all
nations, of solving the great problem of African
geography—that of the sources of the Nile. He has
manifested his intention to confide the command
of a new expedition to Count d'Escayrac de Lau-
tore, member of the Central Commission of the
Geographical Society, a man well known for his
travels in the interior of Africa, and for his
works on that part of the world. This expedition
will take place under the most favourable condi-
tions. It will, moreover, have in its favour the
experience of the preceding ones under Selim-Ca.
pitan, and in which MM. d'Arnaud, Sa,hatier,
Werne, and Thibaut took part. Halim Pacha,
brother of the Viceroy, who has requested to have
the general government of the Soudan, with a de-
sire to open to science these distant countries and
to promote their civilisation, will powerfully con-
tribute to secure the success of the enterprise."
London, England, 1856-03-13

IRON ORDNANCE, &c.

In reply to question■ from Colonel BOLDEBO,
Mr. IIONSELL said there would be no objection to
lay on the table of the house the contract entered into
with Messrs. Grissel & Co. for the supply of iron ordnance,
and the correspondence thereon. In one of the trials
with an ordinary charge a mortar burst, and on trying
them with hydraulic pressure some of them were found
defective. The contractor had been paid for the ord-
nance that had been passed.
PRIDEAUX'S PATENT VALVE.

Mr. HUTCHINS asked the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty whether he would have any objection to lay upon
the table of the house the report of a series of experi-
ments made in June, 1855, under the superintendence
of Captain Denman, on the effect produced of Prideaux's
Patent Valve, both as to the saving of fuel and the re-
duction of temperature at the firing-places !
Sir C. WOOD repeated the statement he made on a
former occasion, that the experiments, not being com-
plete, he could not comply with the request.

-given the opinion the hon. member bad stated on this
question, but the noble lord must have misunderstood
him if he thought that opinion was given without dis-
trust in its soundness. The whole matter was in the
greatest confusion, and further legislation on the subject
was absolutely necessary.
Mr. DUNCOMBE asked the Attorney-General if be
was to understand that the Amendment Bill would not
be proceeded with. Pie complained of this bill being
brought in so late, and read a first and second time so
speedily, seeing that its provisions annihilated the powers
of the old vestries.

The elihject then dropped.
CRIMEAN TARTARS.

Mr. HOLLAND asked the First Lord of the Trea-
siry whether the attention of her Majesty's Govern-
ment had been drawn to the position of the Crimean
Tartars in the event of peace being established, and the
allied forces, towards whom they had shown themselves
friendly disposed, being recalled.
Lord PALMERSTON said that according to the
custom of war no doubt the usual amnesty would be
granted to the subjects of all the powers who had bee❑
engaged in this war.

Small amounts of gold coin continue to be remitted
from Paris, and the rate of exchange is very firm. At
Hamburg there is a renewed pressure for money, and
the rate of discount has again advanced to 5 per cent.
THE MONET MARIEET.—The East India Company lent
300,0001. yesterday upon stock at 5 per cent., and the
demand for money in the Stock Exchange was conse-
quently much mitigated. At the Bank of England,
likewise, although the applications were numerous, there
was an absence of any serious pressure. In the discount
market generally there was no particular alteration. This
day, in consequence of 2,000,0001. being due on the new
loan; an extraordinary demand was anticipated.
