THE ECLIPSE IN PARIS.

The appearance of the heavens in the early part
of the morning seemed anything but favourable for
enjoying a good observation of the great pheno-
menon which was about to take place. The night
had been exceedingly stormy, with heavy falls of
rain, and the morning broke with a dull leaden
sky, which seemed impenetrable to the rays of the
sun. At about nine o'clock the atmosphere got
clearer, and towards tea o'clock a gleam of sun-
shine broke out, giving promise of a bright propi-
tious day. By degrees the clouds became more
and more dissipated, and at nine minutes
to twelve, when the shadow of the moon
was to commence its passage over the sun's
disc., a bright sunshine prevailed, but still with
scattered masses of clouds existing, and with a
breeze which drifted them slowly to the west. At
that hour every part of Paris from which a good
view of the sun could be obtained WAS filled with
persons armed with pieces of coloured glass, ready
to observe the eclipse. The clouds, which at first
seemed likely to impede the view—as they did
cer-
tainlyo to a considerable extent for scientific
servers—rather served to assist the ordinary spec.
tator from occasionally dulling theover brialitness
of the sun's glare, and serving
i
appliances which
in
place of the
smoked glass or any other of the
are used on such occasions. What seemed to strike'
generally the spectators was the rapidity with which
the moon's shadow gamed on the sun's circle. Com-

lir R. HOWARD, burgeon-Dentist, 62, Fleet-
!. street, has ntroduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
FICIAL TEETH Axed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
tae original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
lecay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr.
Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the most econo-
mical, he has fixed the charges at the lowest scale possible. De-
cayed teeth stopped and randered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-452, Fleet-street. At home from ten till five.

THE THEATRES.

HAYMARKET.

A new ballet entitled, " Jack's Return from
Canton," was produced last night, and afforded
cordial enjoyment to a crowded audience. It
sparkles with humour and drollery. Jack, who
has seldom found a more genial representative than
in the person of Mr. Charles Leclercq, has been
settling accounts with Mr. Commissioner Yeh, in
China, and on his return to his native village, he
tells, in pantomimic language, the tin filing story of
his gallant aohievements, and dances no end of
hornpipes with his sweetheart, Miss Louise Le-
clercq, a very pretty and graceful girl. The fun of
the piece is chiefly in the hands, or rather in the
feet, of Mr. Arthur Leclercq, who not only dances
but acts the part of a drunken fiddler with a drol-
lery of gesture and an expressiveness and variety
of grimace which has never been surpassed. The
ballet was received with great applause and loud
shouts of laughter.

SWINDON.

Before the eclipse commenced the thermometer
stood at 58 deg. in the sun. At 11.30 the sky,
though cloudy about the horizon, was perfectly
clear around the sun. For some time we were able
to watch the waning of the sun, sometimes through
coloured glass. s, and sometimes through the filmy
clouds which now began to thicken round it. At
12.22 the first spot was covered, and at 12.30 the
whole cluster ; on examining our thermometer it
had fallen to 53 deg. We may here mention the
fact that the total fall of temperature was from
58 deg. to 48 deg. ; that this fall was entirely due
to the clouds is proved by the fact of *he tempera-
ture again rising to 52 deg. immediately after the
eclipse. At 12.40 a grand coalition of clouds put
au end to our telescopic researches, and we were
forced to confine our observations to the landscape.
After Mr. Hind's poetical description of the
"darkness visible" during an eclipse, the specta-
tors were evidently rather disappointed with the
gloom which spread over nature at two or three
minutes before one. Nevertheless this gloom was
very considerable, it was not great enough to ob-
scure the spire of Swindon Church, the hayrick.,
houses, and trees that we had noted, but it was
quite enough to prevent the index cards being read.
The gloom did not, however, exceed the ordinary
shades of evening, and was not calculated to ex-
cite the emotions of awe and wonder to any inor-
dinate extent. A vivid imagination might dis
cover something very awful in the darkness, it is
true, but to us it seemed merely curious. The
clouds spoiled all.

LYCEUM.

Last evening Miss Helen Faucit delighted the
lovers of the legitimate acting with a performance
of the part of Beatrice in Shakespeare's comedy of
" Much Ado About Nothing." No performance
could be more instinct with grace, ease, and refine-
ment. Miss Faucit's Beatrice was a perfect
study from beginning to end. In regard to power
and energy she far surpasses all who have attempted
the character. The famous scene—in face, the scene
of the play—in which Beatrice endeavours to in-
cite Benedick to a duel with Claudio for wronging
Hero, her acting was transcendent, and again
the exquisite tenderness she exhibited towards
her cousin, after she has been so cruelly
treated by her lover, was wonderfully true to na-
ture. Mr. Dillon, who, we believe, appeared for
the first time in London as Benedick, gave a truly
Shakespeare performance. His reading through-
out the part was faultless. Toole's Vet ges was the
only other artistic performance worthy of notice.
At the fall of the curtain, in answer to most
♦ehement calls, Mr. Dillon led Miss Faucit across
the stage amidst a hurricane of applause.

About 12 o'clock
at noon the heavy slate-coloured clouds which
ay
liZ Well seen at Leeds
weather was dull and
heavy the eclipse
yesterday
covered the sky;began to be dissipated with asmart
current of wind from the south-west, and in the
eclipse breaks of the clouds the
forthla
was observed at
frequent intervals, the thin edge of the clouds ex-
cellently serving the purpose of a screen from the
glare of the small crescent of the sun then exposed,
so that the observer could witness the phenomenon
with the naked eye without the aid of coloured or
smoked glass. At 20 minutes past 1. o'clock the
clouds had been so far driven away that the sun's
disc, with the shadow of the moon upon it, could
be clearly seen and watched, with slight interrup-
tions, from passing " rack" to its termination.
The phenomenon excited much attention among all
classes. There was nothing like darkness even at
the time of the sun's greatest obscuration, and had
the eclipse not been foretold, it might have passed
off without the unlearned having at all marked the
event.

PETERBOROUGH.
Three trains from London, and several from the
north, brought a good number of passengers here
and to Warrington Junction, four miles north of
Peterborough, to see the i;
ec....pse. The last train,
one from Munchoter and Sheffield, with about 250

' passengers, arrived at about a quarter to 1 o'clock
after stopping a few minutes at Warrington Junc-
tion, where upwards of 1,000 people were assem-
bl,.d. The weather was very unfavonrible, the sky
being overcast, with rapidly moving clouds. A
mere glimpse or two of the sus was obtained soon
after 12 o'clock, about twenty minutes after the
eclipse had commenced, and from that time, even
by those carefully on the watch, only momentary
glimpses were caught until 1 o'clock. The time of
greatest obscuration passed over, to the great dis-
appointment of every one, without a sight of the
heavenly bodies. The darkness at the moment
of greatest obscuration was about equal to
that which proceeds from dark masses of
clouds immediately before a heavy storm, and
it had a marked effect upon birds on
the wing, who flew low, and seemed anxiously
seeking shelter. About two minutes after this
period some openings between the swiftly passing
clouds afforded frequent momentary glimpses of the
eclipse, and at this time it could be seen quite as
well with the naked eye as with glasses. The
weather continued cloudy during the remainder of
the afternoon, affording but few opportunities for
observation, and a light shower of rain began to
fall between 2 and 3 o'clock.

OUNDLE.

At 12h. 32m. there was still no perceptible
change in the appearance of nature generally.
It was an ordinary dull day. The birds con-
tinued their singing. At 12h. 34m. we caught
a momentary glimpse of the sun. The moon's limb
was perfectly regular. Much scud was passing,
the sky was generally overcast, and the appearance
of the weather such as betokens rain, large masses
of cumulus in the neighbourhood of the sun were
illuminated at the summit, and iu the glooitlooked
picturesque and massive. At 12h. 39m.. both cusps
were very sharp as seen with a glass. The moon's
limb was even. At this time the gloom to the.
north began to deepen considerably, while the sun
was more clearly visible than at axy time before,
and appeared like a crescent of pure silvery bright-
ness. At 12b. 47m. the
.spot was bi-sected ; the
moon's limb was now- irregular, the gloom deep-
ened, and birds were heard, some singing, and
others chirping and calling as though disturbed.
At 12h. 50m. the lark ceased to rise, and was silent.
At 12b. 53m. we might have imagined that a severe
storm "was impending, and birds -were seen
flying homewards. The wind continued, to rise
in gusts and squalls, the sky was overcast, but
the sun still illuminated a circle round itself.
Between lh. lm. and lb. 2m. the greatest gloom
was experienced, but at no time was it difficult to
read at the ordinary distance, and throughout
there existed no necessity to suspend any:employ-
ment..

OXFORD.

The only period at which it was visible• was for a
few minutes after 12 o'clock. The apparent lower-
ing of the clouds and the passing of the shadow
was very remarkable ; but the most interesting of
the experiments were with the thermometers,
which, although placed in various situations, and
varying some 6 or 8 degrees, at the moment of the
greatest obscuration all sank to exactly the same
level. The birds were noticed to be singing almost up
to the time of the completion of the eclipse. Those of
the Oxonians who remained at home had a much
better view of the eclipse, as it was visible nearly to a
quarter to 1 o'clock. The appearance of the sky was
such as when the shades of evening had approached.
We understand that although little could be seen
of the eclipse at Heyford, Woodstock, ch., yet at
other villages differently situated it was visible
nearly up to the completion of the circle.

IN RE WHITNALL.

This bankrupt was a tailor at Canterbury, and caul,
up to pass his last examination.

. .
Mr. Huron opposed on behalf of the assignees, on the
ground that the accounts were unsatisfactory. .

Mr. Buchanan went into an explanation, and aub•
mitted that it was a case in which he might be allowed
to amend without an adjournment.

His Honour said he could not allow that, but an
adjournment must take plaee.

Adjourned accordingly, but on the application of Mr.
Buchanan protection and the allowance was continued.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.)
IN RE ANGELL.

This bankrupt was described as of Compton-street,
Brunswick-square, and to-day was appointed for his last
examination, which, however, had not been completed,
being of a very complicated character, but Messrs.
Hart Brothers had been fully engaged on it.
The assignees opposed, and ultimately his Honour
adjourned the case sine die, with leave to come up vibe°
prepared.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.— (This Dap)

THAMES.
-ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—Henry Brooks, aged 16,
late the employ of Mr. Burnett Moss, mahogany and
timber merchant of Leman-street, Whitecbapel, was
brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing 22
venters worth 183., the property of his employer. It
appeared that the prisoner bad been in the employ of Mr.
Moss for a fortnight only, on Saturday last Mr. Henry
Fuldan, a German, residing at No. 11, Plummers row,
Whitechapel, purchased some deals of the prosecutor
which were delivered to him by the prisoner, who thus
said he had some veneers to sell cheap, and asked
Fuldan to buy them. Mr. Fuldan refused to do so, and
told the prisoner be would have nothing to do with them.
The prisoner had occasion to call upon Mr. Fuldan a
second time, the subject of the veneers was again

or three hours afterwards the prisoner brought the
veneers, 22 in number, and asked 3s. for them. Mr.
Fuldan gave him the money, and then very properly
communicated with Mr. Moss.

Mr. John Buckly, foreman to the prosecutor, iden-
tified the veneen,, and said they were worth 18s., and
the property of his employer.
Mr. Yardley—And the prisoner offered them for sale
for 34., a sixth part of their value. There is no knoW-
ing the incalculable mischief he would have done his
master if the witness, Fuldan, had not stopped his career
thus early.

The prisoner pleaded guilty.
Mr. Yardley—There is no doubt of your guilt. You
are sentenced to three months' imprisonment with hard
labour

THE THEATRES.

HAYMARKET.

A new ballet entitled, " Jack's Return from
Canton," was produced last night, and afforded
cordial enjoyment to a crowded audience. It
sparkles with humour and drollery. Jack, who
has seldom found a more genial representative than
in the person of Mr. Charles Leclercq, has been
settling accounts with Mr. Commissioner Yeh, in
China, and on his return to his native village, he
tells, in pantomimic language, the thrilling story of
his gallant achievements, and dances no end of
hornpipes with his sweetheart, Miss Louise Le-
clercq, a very pretty and graceful girl. The fun of
the piece is chiefly in the hands, or rather in the
feet, cf Mr. Arthur Leclercq, who not only dances
but acts the part of a drunken fiddler with a drol-
lery of gesture and an expressiveness and variety
of grimace which has never been surpassed. The
ballet was received with great applause and loud
shouts of laughter.
London, England, 1858-03-16

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE.

Mr. John Yeats, F.R.G.S., writing from Fother-
ingay Castle-mound, says :—" All the phenomena
of an annular eclipse were clearly and beautifully
visible on the mound, which is a locality easily
identified. Baily's beads were perfectly plain on
the completion of the annulus, which occurrence
took place, according to my observation, at about
70 seconds after 1 o'clock ; it lasted about 80
seconds. The ' beads,' like drops of water, ap-
peared on the upper and undar sides of the moon,
occupying fully three-fourths of her circumference.
There was nothing like intense darkness during the
eclipse; I have seen more gloom in a thunderstorm.
Bystanders prognosticated rain, but it was the
shadow of a rapidly declining day. At 12 o'clock
a lady living on the farm suddenly exclaimed,
The cows are coming home to be milked !' and
they came, all but one ; that followed, however,
within the hour. Cocks crowed, birds flew low or
fluttered about uneas ly, but every object far and
near was well defined to the eye."
London, England, 1858-03-16

LYCEUM.

Last evening Miss Helen Faucit delighted the
lovers of the legitimate acting with a performance
of the part of Beatrice in Shakespeare's comedy of
" Much Ado About Nothing." No performance
could be more instinct with grace, ease, and refine-
ment. Miss Faucit's Beatrice was a perfect
study from beginning to end. In regard to power
and energy she far surpasses all who have attempted
the character. The famous scene—in fact, the scene
of the play—in which Beatrice endeavours to in-
cite Benedick to a duel with Claudio for wronging
Hero, her acting was transcendant, and again
the exquisite tenderness she exhibited towards
her cousin, after she has been so cruelly
treated by her lover, was wonderfully true to na-
ture. Mr. Dillon, who, we believe, appeared for
the first time in London as Benedick, gave a truly
Shakespeare performance. His reading through-
out the part was faultless. Toole's Verges was the
only other artistic performance worthy of notice.
At the fall of the curtain, in answer to most
vehement calls, Mr. Dillon led Miss Faucit across
the stage amidst a hurricane of applause.
London, England, 1858-03-16

SWINDON.

Before the eclipse commenced the thermometer
stood at 58 deg. in the sun. At 11.30 the sky,
though cloudy about the horizon, was perfectly
tcoleawraartohoutnhde twhaeosiunng.
of
fFtohro someat tingew
mayheremention the
temperature was from
58 deg. to 48 deg. ; that this fall was entirely due
sometimes through
coloured glass- s, and sometimes through the filmy
clouds which now began to thicken round it. At
12.22 the first spot was covered, and at 12.30 the
whole cluster ; on examining our thermometer it
fl i
ill, ft ahlal et nt
hteo
tso3t adle giall `of
to the clouds is proved by the fact of the tempera-
ture again rising to 52 deg. immediately after the
eclipse. At 12.40 a grand coalition of clouds put
an end to our telescopic researches, and
we were
forced to confine our observations to the landscape.
After Mr. Hind's poetical description of the
"darkness visible" during au eclipse, the specta-
tors were evidently rather disappointed with the
gloom which spread over nature at two or three
minutes before one. Nevertheless this gloom was
very considerable, it was not great enough to ob-
scure the spire of Swindon Church, the hayrick.,
houses, and trees that we had noted, but it was
quite enough to prevent the index cards being read.
The gloom did not, however, exceed the ordinary
shades of evening, and was not calculated to ex-
cite the emotions of awe and wonder to any inor-
dinate extent. A vivid imagination might dis-
cover something very awful in the darkness, it is
true, but to us it seemed merely curious. The
clouds spoiled all.

THE LATE AFFRAY WITH THE POLICE IN

IRELAND.
Lord RODEN called the attention of the noble earl
opposite to the cowardly attack of the police on the
students of Trinity College, Dublin, on the occasion of
the entry of the new Lord-Lieutenant into Ireland, and
asked what steps the Government intended t, take in
consequence?
The Earl of DERBY said the facts that had come to
his knowledge of the circumstances at the present mo-
ment were of so incomplete a character, that he was un-
able to give any definite answer to the question.
Their lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(YESTERDAY.)
The SITAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock.
NEW MEMBERS.

Lord Naae, Lord Claude Hamilton, Lord Newport,
Col. Taylor (members of the new Government), and Mr.
Proby took the oaths and their seats.
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The following bills were read a second time :—An-
dover Canal Railway ; Halifax Park and Improvements;
and Ware, Hadham, and Buntingford Railway Bills.

LONDON TRAMWAY BILL.

On the motion for the Feoond reading of this bill,
Sir B. HALL opposed the second reading of this
bill,. and moved that its second reading be postponed for
six months. He complained of a private company being
allowed to come before the house with a private biil
without giving the usual notices required by railway and
canal companies. It was a novel principle for a private

be to materially interfere with the heavy traffic of the
metropolis. In many cases in the City the roads were
so narrow that only about one foot would be left on
each side of the proposed tramway.
The SPEAKER put tko motion for the second reading
of the bill, which was negatived without a division.
ST. LEONARD'S (SHORE DITCH) PARISH BILL.
On the motion for the second reading of this bill,
Mr. S. ESTCOURT said that, as the promoters of the
bill had consented to the introduction of a clause pu ting
the election of guardians on the same footing as the rest
of the kingdom, he had no opposition to offer to the
bill.

The bill was then read a second time.
PETITIONS.
Petitions were presented from several deaneriesagainst
legalising marriage with a deceased wife's sister; against
the toll on Battersea bridge ; for an extensive measure
of Parliamentary reform ; the repeal of the paper duty ;
repeal of church rates ; in favour of marriage with a
deceased wife's sister; against the repeal of church
rates, &c. &c.
