GREECE.

The Esperance of Athens of the 11th states that
the opening of the Legislative Chambers took place
on the previous day with the customary ceremonial.
The ministry expects to meet a more organised and
more compact opposition in the Senate than at-
tended at last session, and the first show of this
opposition was to have been made on the address
in reply to the speech from the throne ; but that
plan was defeated by the chambers being opened
without any speech. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe
had left for Italy.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Murphy.)
IN RE WILLIAM LASLETT, THE ELDER.
This case had been adjourned from Friday in order to
produce books and additional evidence as to the sale of his
business. •
Mr. Dowse opposed and Mr. R. Martin supported.
Mr. Dowse complained that there was an imperfect de-
scription of the insolvent, inasmuch as he had omitted a
place where business was carried on in Rent; and also
described the copartnership, previously referred to, as of
Laslett and Son, in place of William Laslett and Son, which
had been printed on his bill heads.
The learned Commissioner declared that it was one of the
rivolous and vexatious technical points to which he was
too frequently compelled to yield, but that when the
advertisement was completed he would discharge the insol-
vent on the merits and listen to no further opposition.

CITY SHERIFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.)
POTTER Y. .111ITH-HORSE DEALING EXTRAORDINARY.
Mr. Buchanan appeared for the ilaintift; and Mr. Scott
for the defendant.
This Was an action to recover a sum of money for meta
supplied and 41 due upon a transaction relative to a grey
mars.

Defendant pleaded a set-off of butter and cheese, and £4
12s. 6d. due upon a transaction relative to a black colt.
There was a great deal of hard swearing in the case, and
in reference to the £1 defendant proved that he had ?aid it
for the mare's keep.
Plaintiff dsclared he had promised to pay. As to the
c)lt, it appeared that defendant and a person named Bar-
nett attended a . sale at Newton, and bought a colt for
twenty-three and a-half guineas. They charged plaintiff
£29 16s. 6d. for it, and he now swore that defendant had
nothing to do with it, and that Barnett had told him ;he
was the owner of the colt. This Barnett could not deny.
Plaintiff likewise said that Smith attended the sale and
bought the horse for him (plaintiff). This defendant de.
ied, and said he never agreed to do so. A witness depdones
that he heard Smith say Barnett was the owner of the horse.

DRURY-LANE.

Last evening Mr. Balfe's highly popular opera of " The
Bohemian Girl" was performed at the above theatre for the
first time this season ; Miss Susan Pyne personated the
character of Arline ; Miss Susan Pyne, the Gipsy Queen ;
Mr. Henry Corri, Devilshoof ; Mr. Ferdinand Glover (first
time) Count Arnheim ; and Mr. W. Harrison his original
part of Thaddeus. There was but one novelty in the cast ;
and if Mr. Ferdinand Glover's performance, regarded from
the histrionic point of view, was very inferior to that of
Mr. Weiss, or other familiar representatives of the same
character we could mention, there can be no doubt that
his really good singing made amends for many shortcomings.
The band and chorus, under the able direction of Mr. Alfred
Mellon, were all that could be wished ; and the general
performance was highly creditable to the Pyne and Har-
rison company.
The customary encores were" not wanting, and the prin-
cipal artists were honoured with the conventional " ova-
tions."
The house was well attended.

and have proved themselves worthy of the artists.
The substance of the book has high literary merits,
and reflects great credit on Mr. M'Dermott. Ho
takes each subject in turn, and in elegant, yet
clear and simple language, he tells us
how of old the May-day game, the har-
vest homes, the sports and pastimes were
carried on among the peasantry, the hunting
and hawking, the jousts and tournaments among
their lords and barons. He draws us a picture,
too, of the good cheer kept up in the old baronial
hall, and shows us how life flowed on in the abbeys
and castles that are now sinking into romantic
ruin. The wandering minstrels, the Canterbury
pilgrims, the shepherdesses and milkmaids, all fill
a page in his chronicle; and in a work on the olden
days it would be as impossible to omit the merry- •
men of Robin Hood as the boar's head of
the Christmas revel. His pages are full
of quotation and incident. The lover of
verse will be as much gratified as the artist. His
extracts from the poets are numerous and varied,
from the quaint imagery of Herbert, or the love
songs of Corydon and Phillis, to the writers of the
present day. The literary part of the work reflects
scarcely less credit on Mr. M'Dermott than the
taste and judgment with whichhe has superintended
the volume. The initial letters and ornaments are
pretty and skilful, and the binding of the work is
in that rich and massive antique style so much in
vogue. Altogether the work is one of the most
acceptable of Christmas gifts, and affords sufficient
testimony that if we have no longer the feasts and.
frolics that made our country " Merrie Englande "
we have not lost our love of illustrative art, and
need not fear competition with the illuminated
volumes of our forefathers.
London, England, 1858-11-23

PRUSSIA.

In an address from the Pine Regent of Prussia
to the Ministry of State at the first sitting, his
Royal Highness, after alluding to the King's
ness, said It must be generally admitted that
the welfare of the country and of the ero*n are in-
separable, and that the prosperity of both repose
on solid and conservative bases. To recognise
these wants, and to properly satisfy them, is the
secret of State wisdom, and it is above all things
necessary to avoid running into extremes. In this
respect the mission of the Government will not be
an easy one ; for a movement has of late manifested
itself in public life which may be in part ex-
plained, but which on the other hand already
shows traces of ideas unusually violent, and
which must be opposed by acts as rational as they
are legal and energetic. Everything that is pro-
mised should be scrupulously performed, without,
however, refraining, from amelioration ; and every-
thing not promised must be firmly opposed. Above
all, it is necessary to abstain from the stereotyped
phrase that the Government must indefinitely con-
sent to the development of liberal ideas, from the
apprehension that they may make their way in an
underhand manner. When truth and legality are
manifest in all the acts of the Government it is

strong, because it is conscious of acting properly ;
and that feeling gives it a right to energetically
resist all that is objectionable."

HOLLAND.

Prince Henry of the Netherlands, the King's
Lieutenant in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
opened the session of the States on the 18th. In
the speech which he delivered he mentioned the
unsuccessful attempt made by the Government to
come to a proper regulation of religious affairs, and
to form a Council of State. He next allUded to the
differences which exist between the States and the
Crown, on which he expressed himself as follows :

" When you separated last year you signified a
wish to be convoked by the Crown for an extraor-
dinary session. His Majesty preferred to defer
your meeting. The King Grand Duke being al-
ways disposed to accede to the just wishes which
his faithful' States think it their duty to express to
him, that determination was only dictated by the
knowledge of the motive of your request, which he
could not reconcile either with his convictions or
with that paternal solicitude which makes him
desire calmness in the public mind, and a good
understanding with all. it is,the same system that
has guided the Crown with regard to the revision
of the electoral system. After due consultation, it
has not appeared opportune to deviate from the
fundamental principles which are now in force.
It moreover appears, that at the present time
there are other interests far more important
for the country which particularly claim your at-
tention. In fact, the efforts which the King's
Government have constantly used for many years
past, to endow the Grand Duchy with a complete
set of railways, are on the point of producing their
fruits, and you will have to take into consideration
the different conventions which have been entered
into on the subject."
London, England, 1858-11-23

THE NAVY.

The Vulcan, 6-gun iron troopship, in No. 9 dock
in Portsmouth Dockyard, is to have her sternpost
taken off about four feet from the keel, and the
top of the sternpost carried forward 15 inches ;
the shaft-hole is to be raised one foot. These al-

terations are in order to apply Maudslay's hoisting
gear for raising the screw. Her old engines are
removed, and she is repairing defects preparatory
to the reception of new ones of 400 horse-power by
the above firm, as before stated.

The Cressy, Captain Edward P. Halstead, kas
been taken into No. 1 dry dock at Sheerness, in
order to remedy a leak near her propeller-shaft,
through her sternpost.
The new screw steamship Hero, 91 guns, has
been taken from her moorings into the fitting basin
at Sheerness.

The new screw steamship Edgar was yesterday
towed down from Blackstakes to Sheerness, and
taken into the fitting basin to be ready for being
commissioned.

Lieut. William W. Oke has been appointed to
the Royal William, for service in the Ordinary at
Devonport.

In our notice yesterday of the improved regula-
tions of the Hannibal, 91, Captain C. T. Gordon, the
words " washing once a•week" should read " twice
a-week."

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 18th do not contain
any political news of importance. The Correspon-
dantia Autografa announces that the relations be-
tween England and Spain are now pefectly satis-
factory, and that the Cabinet will be able to prove
to the Cortes that in the question lately pending be-
tween them it maintained the national honour. The
Gazette contains an official announcement of the
establishment of a blockade, by the French and
Spaniards, on the coast of Cochin China. One
of the religious journals announces that a beautiful
Jewess, daughter of wealthy parents, has been pri-
vately baptised, after having been instructed by the
Countess de Hurrianes, one of the most influential
members of the old aristocracy, and who is known
for zeal in the instruction of the poor. The follow-
ing are extracts from the journals:—
" Church robberies, which SO years ago were
almost unknown in this country, appear 0 be

getting more frequent than ever. A scandalous one
took Pace the other day in Madrid, and several
others are recorded by the provincial papers.
In the province of Sorca the churches of So-
tillo and Molinos have been rifled of everything of
value, to the great scandal of the faithful.--
Amongst the buildimgs at Seville which have suf-
fered most damage from the earthquake is the mo-
del prison, and four hundred of the prisoners con-
fined in it have had to be removed to the principal
gaol. The Government has been informed that
about the middle of the month of December a Dutch
squadron will touch at Cadiz. Orders have been
given to afford whatever it may stand in need of.
Similar directions have been given with respect to
two Russian men of war that are expected from
the Black Sea on their way to the Baltic, in case
they should touch at any of the Spanish ports.
The leprosy which has for some time existed in
some parts of the south of Spain has not spread
so much as was feared, considering its highly con-
tagious nature. New cases, however, have appeared,
and the alcalde of Viso del Alcor is complained of
by the Seville press, because although he has sent
every poor leper in his district to the hospital of St.
Lazarus, which has been appropriated to persons
affected with that loathsome disease, yet he has
permitted persons in comfortable circumstances to
be treated at home, contrary to the sanitary decree
concerning this disorder."

The Marquis de Banvillc, first secretary of the
French embassy at Vienna, will conduct affairs
during the absence of Baron de Bourqueney at
Paris.

The King of the Belgians, accompanied by Vis-
count Conway, has left Brussels for his Majesty's
estate in the Ardennes.

At the sitting of.the Germanic Confederation on
the 18th, the President laid before the assembly
the letters of recal of Count de Montessuy as
French Minister to the Diet, and those accrediting
Count de Salignac-Fenelon as his successor, and
the latter was accordingly recognised as such. The
assembly also decided that the report made at the
previous" sitting, on the affair of the duchies,
should be referred to the united companies.

THE THEATRES.
London, England, 1858-11-23

STRAND.

Last night a new farce, by Mr. J. M. Morton, was pro-
duced at this theatre. Its title " The Little Savage," would
seem to imply that it was getup with a special view to the
peculiar talents of Miss Wilton, on whom, indeed, the
burden of the piece falls, and who, we may say at once,
acquitted herself with her wonted liveliness and spirit.
Kate Dalrymple (Miss Wilton) lives with her uncle, Major
Choker, at Bagshot, and possesses an ample fortune. Mr.
John Farker (Mr. Swanborough) pays the family a visit
"with an object" as it is supposed; but he purposely as-
sumes the rudest manners and disgusts the Major and
Mrs Choker, although he makes an impression on the heart
of the niece. Mr. Lionel Larkins (Mr. J. Clarke) also pays
a visit with an object, and his genteeler mode takes with
the elder people but he fails with the young girl.
Mr. Parker rides off in a pet on Mr. Larkins' horse, con-
trives to break the animal's knees, and is himself brought
back in a state of simulated insensibility. The feelings of
the family are interested, and in a short time he makes it
appear that Larkins' aim is the fortune and not the young
lady. The :upshot is that he wins the good opinion of all,
and 'succeeds in gaining the hand of the young lady. This
piece is too dry ; there is little attempt at wit ; not the least
sparkle in the dialogue. The situations, which frequently,
without other aid, make a farce laughable, are clumsy and

ill-contrived. The scene in which Gate plays the little
savage, is at once lively and ludicrous, but here the merit
consists in the acting, and not in the narrative. The piece

The following proclamation from M. Gery, the
new Prefect of Algiers, has been posted up on the
walls of that city :
" Inhabitants of Algiers,—Algeria has ceased to
be a colony. Under the generous impulse of his
Imperial Highness Prince Napoleon, a new organi-
sation has assimilated the departments in Algeria
to the mother country ; has imparted, by confer-
ring on them independence, greater energy to the
local authority; has preserved as safeguard an
army commanded by one of the most illustrious
generals of the empire ; has left full liberty to in-
dividual initiative, and opened the way to many
important ameliorations. Called to the Prefecture
of. Algiers by the will of the Emperor, I come
among you, without prejudice, to labour with all
my power for the triumph of those true principles
which ought to ensure the future welfare of Al-
geria. I ask the assistance of all well-disposed
persons. I appeal to all generous sentiments, and
I-hope that soon, by the presence and the exer-
'

tions of the Prince charged to complete the work
of our glorious army, there will be realised these
words of the Emperor at Bordeaux We have
opposite Marseilles a vast kingdom to assimilate to
France."

GREVCE.
The Esperance of Athens of the 11th states that
the opening of the Legislative Chambers took place
on the previous day with the customary ceremonial.
The ministry expects to meet a more organised and
more compact opposition in the Senate than at-
tended at last session, and the first show of this
opposition was to have been made on the address
in reply to the speech from the throne ; but that
plan was defeated by the chambers being opened
without any speech. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe
had left for Italy.

economised, and applied to the only use for which
it is required, as currency—viz., the adjustments
of the balances of foreign traders. A considerable

stock might also be kept on hand to provide for
any unexpected demand—although this might
safely be left to the dealers in bullion, who, when
they found a reasonable profit in so going, would
take care to keep up an adequate supply for the
wants and exigencies of the nation.

PUBLIC READING.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—The lecture of the Rev. W. H. Brookfield
on public reading, delivered at the Kensington
Museum, has directed the attention of the public
to a subject which we have for many years advo-
cated, by example as well as by precept.
It may interest those who see in public reading
a rival to the publichouse, to be informed that a
society is in course of formation, by members of
the Temple, for the purpose of providing this
amusement.

Certain of us who have studied and practised
the art will engage to read gratuitously, and a
subscription will, it is hoped, procure the necessary
rooms for the audience. It is proposed to admit
the public at some merely nominal charge, sufficient
to prevent the confusion which would arise from
open doors.

Perhaps we may be allowed to add, that persons
desirous of aiding this design, either by reading or
subscribing to the funds for the hiring of rooms,
&c., are requested to address
Your obedient servants,
EDWARD W. COX, Hon.
CHAS. J. PLUMPTRE, J Secs.
Essex-court, Temple.

[ln the interests at once of our social well-being,
of public morality, and of general education, we
very cordially wish success to this genial and
auspicious enterprise.—ED. SUN.]

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 18th do not contain
any political news of importance. The Correspon-
dantia ilatografa announces that the relations be-
tween England and Spain are now pcfectly satis-
factory, and that the Cabinet will be able to prove
to the Cortes that in the question lately pending be-
tween them it maintained the national honour. The
Gazette contains an official announcement of the
establishment of a blockade, by the French and
Spaniards, on the coast of Cochin China. One
of the religious journals announces that a beautiful
Jewess, daughter of wealthy parents, has been pri-
vately baptised, after having been instructed by the
Countess de Hurrianes, one of the most influential
members of the old aristocracy, and who is known
for zeal in the instruction of the poor. The follow-
ing are extracts from the journals :

PRUSSIA.

In an address from the Pinco Regent of Prussia
to the Ministry of State at the first sitting, his
Royal Highness, after alluding to the King's ill-
ness, said :—" It must be generally admitted that
the welfare of the country and of the crown are in-
separable, and that the prosperity of both repose
on solid and conservative bases. To recognise
these wants, and to properly satisfy them, is the
secret of State wisdom, and it is above all things
necessary to avoid running into extremes. In this
respect the mission of the Government will not be
an easy one ; for a movement has of late manifested
itself in public life which may be in part ex-
plained, but which on the other hand already
shows traces of ideas unusually violent, and
which must be opposed by acts as rational as they
are legal and energetic. Everything that is pro-
mised should be scrupulously performed, without,
however, refraining from amelioration ; and every-
thing not promised must be firmly opposed. Above
all, it is necessary to abstain from the stereotyped
phrase that the Government must indefinitely con-
sent to the development of liberal ideas, from the
apprehension that they may make their way in an
underhand manner. When truth and legality are
manifest in all the acts of the Government it is
strong, because it is conscious of acting properly ;
and that feeling gives it a right to energetically
resist all that is objectionable."
HOLLAND.

Prince Henry of the Netherlands, the King's
Lieutenant in the Grand Duchy of ,Luxembourg,
opened the session of the States on the 18th. In
the speech which he delivered he mentioned the
unsuccessful attempt made by the Government to
come to a proper regulation of religious affairs, and
to form a Council of State. He next alluded to the ,
differences which exist between the States and the
Crown, on which he expressed himself as follows :
" When you separated last year you signified a
wish to be convoked by the Crown for an extraor-
dinary session. His Majesty preferred to defer
your meeting. The King Grand Duke being al-
ways disposed to accede to the just wishes which
his faithful States think it their duty to express to
him, that determination was only dictated by the
knowledge of the motive of your request, which he
could not reconcile either with his convictions or
with that paternal solicitude which makes him
desire calmness in the public mind, 'and a good
understanding with all. It is the same system that
has guided the Crown with regard to the revision
of the electoral system. After due consultation, it
has not appeared opportune to deviate from the
fundamental principles which are now in force.
It moreover appears, that at the present time
there are other interests far more important

for the country which particularly claim your at-
tcntion. In fact, the efforts which the King's
Government have constantly used for many years
past, to endow the Grand Duchy with a complete
set of railways, are on the point of producing their
fruits, and you will have to take into consideration
the different convent ons which have been entered
into on the subject."

BURGLARY WITH VIOLENCE.

Augustin Jallde, an Italian, aged 25, pleaded guilty
to an indictment charging him with burglariously breaking
and entering the dwelling-house of Mr. C. Pritchard, residing
in the vicinity of Clapham, and stealing therefrom three
forks, ono fish knife, and various other articles.
The Common Sergeant said the prisoner had done right
in pleading guilty to the indictment against him. The
crime the prisoner had committed was of itself a very
serious one, but it was frightful to contemplate what might
have been the result supposing the rev. gentleman, or any
of the domestics, had disturbed him while ho was engaged
in the act of plundering the house. From the deposi-
tions, he found that he, in the most business-like man-
ner, forced a wire guard from its position, and
thus obtained an entry to the premises. That after
he had succeeded so: far in his object the prisoner ob-
tained a light and ransacked room after room, in search of
the silver plate, armed with a large knife. Fortunately
for the inmates the police were the first to arouse them, and
' when they attempted to capture the prisoner he commenced
a desperate resistance with the knife, so much so that it
was a mercy he did not commit the crime of murder, for
murder it would certainly have been had death ensued to any
person. He trembled to think of the consequences of per-
sons of the determined disposition of the prisoner being
discovered in the act of plunder in the dead of night in the
house of a clergyman, and he ought to be thankful that he
was not now standing before the Court as a murderer. The
sentence of the Court was, that he be kept to penal servi-
tude for six years.

LANDED ESTATES COURT.

The first great sale under the new land tribunal
took place yesterday, and the result was most satis-
factory. The property disposed of consisted of the
Meath estates of Mr. Charles Powell Leslie, M.P.
for Monaghan. They were put up in 64 lots, the
whole comprising more than 12,000 statute acres,
producing a net rental of X 7,000 per annum, which
realized the gross sum of £195,000, being nearly 30
years' purchase on the whole property. This
flourishing state of the Irish land-market shows
that confidence in the progressive improvement of
the country has not been abated by the revival
(temporary, it is to be hoped) of agrarian outrage
in its most repulsive form.
London, England, 1858-11-23

STRAND.

Last night a new farce, by Mr. J. M. Morton, was pro-
duced at this theatre. Its title " The Little Savage," would
seem to imply that it was got up with a special view to the
peculiar talents of Miss Wilton, on whom, indeed, the
burden of the piece falls, and who, we may say at once,
acquitted herself with her wonted liveliness and spirit.
Kate Dalrymple (Miss Wilton) lives with her uncle, Major
Choker, at Bagshot, and possesses an ample fortune. Mr.
John Farker (Mr. Swanborough) pays the family a visit
"with an object" as it is supposed ; but he purposely as-
sumes the rudest manners and disgusts the Major and
Mrs Choker,although he makes an impression on the heart
of the niece. Mr. Lionel Larkins (Mr. J. Clarke) also pays
a visit with an object, and his genteeler mode takes with
the elder people but he fails with the young girl.
Mr. Parker rides Off in.a pet on
.Mr. Larkins' horse, con-
trives to break the animal's knees, and is himself brought
back in a state of simulated insensibility. The feelings of
the family are interested, and in a short time he makes it
appear that Larkins' aim is the fortune and not the young
lady. The .upshot is that he wins the good opinion of all,
and:succeeds in gaining the hand of the young lady. This
piece is too dry ; there is little attempt at wit ; not the least
sparkle in the dialogue. The situations, which frequently,
without other aid, make a farce laughable, are clumsy and
ill-contrived. The 13 ceno in which Gate plays the little
savage, is at once lively and ludicrous, but here the merit
consists in the acting, and not in the narrative. The piece
must be a " dismal swamp" indeed which the jocund jesting
and jilting jollity of Miss Wilton would not make pleasant.
A crowded house were amused by her last night, but the
" Little Savage" is not a "hit," and Mr. Morton, it is well
known, can do bettor things.
London, England, 1858-11-23

tion. Its success as a drama was most unequivocal. It
was a real Surrey bit, and will doubtless occupy the post of
honour in the bills for some time to come.

The acting was throughout excellent. Mr. Creswick
supported the principal character, which is of that cool
naturo, predominant in the Count Horace of "Pauline,"
or the Count Priuli in "Retribution," though more
villanous than either, with consummate ease and
artistic skill. Mrs. Hudson Kirby, to whom the re-
pellant role of Lisa was assigned, toned down the
repulsive shades by a ladylike, natural deportment ; the
"bit of character" by Mr. Vollaire was as truthfully ren-
dered as are all this excellent actor's impersonations. Mrs.
Calvert deserves a word of praise for her impersonation of
the persecuted Joanna; and the rest of the serious cha-
racters found ettleient exponents in Mr. Basil Potter, Mr.
Fernandez, and Mr. Tapping.
The comedy of the piece was sustained by Mr.. Bruce
Norton and Mr. Widdicomb. The parts were of the most
slender nature, but filled as they were by two such trans-
pontine favourites, the appreciation of the actor compen-
sated for the deficiency of opportunity.
