SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE.

A my:holcgical burletta, entitled The .Intigwent
Paris has been produced at the above theatre with de-
served success. The story is the very ancient one of
Discordia's apple being flung amid the goddesses, and the
ultimate decrea of Paris in favour of Venus. Miss So-
MERVILLE enacts the " Queen of Love," and if she does
not realise all our wishes to the eye, she makes amends by
charming the ear. Miss FORDE plays the hero, " Tr'e
blooming Trojan who made Helen fake," and looks, acts,
and sings exchantingly ; her parody on '• The Minstrol
Boy" is an effort at once extraordinary and delightful.
For power, conjoined with compass and purity of tono,
this lady has but one rival. Mercury and Bacchus are
sustained by Messrs. W. H. WILLIAMS and SALTER ;
the latter falls short of MITCHELL, who played the part at
the Strand Theatre. The former is animated and amus-
ing. Considerable pains appear to have been bestowed on
the scenery and dresses, and the piece will, in all proba-
bility, have a run.

$lll,-By the arrival of the Sapphire from Tampico
and Vera Cruz, I am informed that although the civil
war continues in the Mexican territory, the alarm felt by
the British merchants had in a great measure subsided,
and reasonable hopes were entertained that tranquillity
would soon be restored in that country. I shall, how-
ever, continue to employ a naval force in the Gulf for the
preservation of the British interests ; with which view 1
have sent the Race-horse to Vera Cruz, and the North
Star will follow as soon as she can be got ready. The
Hyacinth was to leave the Gulf of Mexico on the 20th
ult. for England with specie that could not be shipped in

MR. HUME'S v)6rro'k-Oril sin stns.

(Abridged from the Tyne Mercury.)
Agreeably to the requisition from the Reformers of
South Shields, Joseph Hume, Esq., the patriotic Memb-r
for Middlesex, paid a visit to that town on Friday last, the
2d of November, accompanied by Wm. Gowan, Esq., the
thorough Reform candidate for the borough. A proces-
sion, with banners and a band of music, went out to meet
him, and, though it rained unceasingly, an immense crowd
of persons assembled in front of the Town-hall, where it
was expected Mr. H. would address them. As soon as
Mr. Hume and Mr. Gowan bad alighted,
Mr. Gower addressed the assemblage; after which,
Mr. HUMS came forward, and was received with im-
mense cheering. He begged to remark, that since he had
begun to sit in Parliament, he had considered himself as
the representative of South Shields, as well as of every
other place in the United Kingdom—(Applause)—and,
therefore, there was no place where he could appear as a
stranger. He (Mr. Hume) had been charged with the
heinous offence of recommending to the electors of the bo-
rough of South Shields a man with whose character he
had been acquainted as their representative. Wherein, he
would ask, did the crime of his conduct consist ? He (Mr.
Hume) bad not ventured to dictate to the electors, or to
arrogate authority over them, as had been asserted. Hav-
ing himself laboured personally to promote Reform, he
was naturally anxious to further the cause by obta'ning
the co-operation of men similarly determined with himself
to do so ; and when applied to by so respectable a body of
electors as those who signed the request, to recommend to
them a suitable person as their representative, he felt that
he should have shown little regard to the courtesy between
man and man, much less to his public character, had he
not taken the step he did, and recommended to them his
friend Mr. Gowan. The private character and public
principles of that gentleman he knew well, and could place
in him the fullest confidence. It was for the electors
to inquire into and examine the merits of Mr. Gowan,
and judge for themselves of his fitness to represent them.
His (Mr. flume's) design was to keep the Peers out of
the House of Commons, and make that House properly
represent the people. Reductions would then be made in
the country's expenditure which would materially benefit
every person, but especially the poor man. He was far
from saying that the present state of the suffrage was
what it ought to be. His opinion was, and he had net
conformed to it because it was the popular cry—that tax-
ation and representation should go hand in hand ; and
that every man who paid money to the state—and could
any person tell him who did not?—should have some
control in its application to national purposes. He (Mr.
Hume) would, however, address the 101. householders,
as on them the elective franchise had been conferred, al-
though he could point out many a 71. householder who was
as capable of exercising a judgment in political matters as
many a Nobleman that he (Mr. flume) could mention.
To the electors, then, he would say, they must secure
those measures on which the best governments hail existed,
via. : vote by ballot, and triennial Parliaments. WI at
would be the advantage of reducing the duration of Par-
liaments to a term of three years ? It was simply this :
if Members acted from selfish views, they would be sent
to the right about, and better: men sent to take their
places. Their representative should be a man who had no
feeling for the delicacy of pledges which many people
talked about. What hold could they have upon any re-
presentative, if they did not question him upon every great
point, and require of him assurances as to his conduct in
reference to those points? Another point he would men-
tion as necessary for the people to secure, and that was, the
extension of the suffrage. These were the impotent objects"
to be first secured, and having obtained these, what was next
to be done? Their next duty was to educate every man in the
country. He (Mr. H.) was notafraid of an enlightened peo-
ple, but he was very much afraid of an ignorant community.
When he (Mr. 11.) looked at the situation of the people,
in reference to the administration of justice, he saw much
to be done. The vexatious delays which existed in the
administration of law, served to entangle the wheels
which ought to roll on with the greatest rapidity. There
were many persons, too, connected with this department,
received salaries for doing nothing. Lord Ellenborough,
for instance, derived 9,0001. a-year as fees from a Court,
for which no business was done, with no other assignable
reason than that his father was a Chief Justice. Lord
Kenyon, too, from a similar circumstance, received 7,000/.
or 8,0001. The people of England had been like stupid
beasts of burden, born for servitude and bondage. Let
them endure no longer, but for the future call on every
candidate to obtain cheap, speedy, and local justice. He
(Mr. would now ask, what was the next duty of
Government? Certainly, to remove the abuses of the
Church. Nothing was more absurd than the union of
Church and State. Bred himself a Presbyterian, he had
been accustomed to see the clergyman in every parish
doing his duty, and he was in consequence looked up to
and respected by his flock. But when he looked to Eng-
land it was fir otherwise; there he beheld a Church the
ministers of which were rolling in their chariots, like
Princes or Nabobs, and living in a style which the Chris-
tian rtligion no where sanctioned. The clergy of the
Church of England possessed property which was more

tioin sufficient for their maintenance without tithes, which
were a system of odious exactions, setting man agairst hia
fellow man, and making the clergy appear as the great-
est enemy the poor man had. What did he ask in
reference to the Church ? Nothing more than what those
he addressed would do in their own private affairs. His
object was to put an end to the means which prevented
the clergy from doing their duty. They ought to be better
men. They were not to be led, nor to lead others into
temptation. That system ought to be abolished, therefore,
by which men had an interest in neglecting their duty.
After having submitted to the Parliament of England that
the Church of England was public property, that it was
given to the clergy for certain services performed, and
that when those services ceased to be performed, Parlia-
ment might take it back again and employ it for the pur-
poses of the State—after having propounded this doctrine
to the Howe of Commons sixteen years ago, the bench of
Bishops had come forward at the eleventh hour, and
thought to satisfy the people by a little bit-by-bit Reform,
in order to keep them a little longer under their trammels.
When he (Mr. EL) looked at other nations, he saw as
much piety and religion, and more morality than in Eng-
land ; yet no such wealthy church establishment existed
amongst them. One piece of corruption was enough to
corrupt twenty men ; because, though only one person
can obtain the situation, twenty sacrifice their principle
in endeavouring to secure it. If Mr. Gowan would not
pledge himself to Church Reform, such as the abolition of
tithes, the exclusion of Bishops from the House of Lords,
he (Mr. H.) would never give him his vote—not consi-
dering hint fit to be a representative. With respect to the
corn laws, he must say they had done a great deal of mis-
chief. His own income depended on land. His opinion
was, that corn should be put on the same footing as any
other article ; if there were extra charges upon it, let
an adequate compensation be given. By the removal
of the corn laws the people would to placed in a
better situation. These were some of the most im-
portant changes which every man ought to advocate.
He (Mr. Hume) had advocated them throughout.
He now came to the last point, which might have been
put first. They should consider the question—what
was the end of Government? Was it to support my Lord
this, or my Lady that? Was it to support the King?
No ! The people had a King in order to secure advan-
tages to themselves. This was the end of all government,
the advantage of the governed.
Mr. GOWAN then observed, that he reiterated those
pledges he had given the electors of South Shields on a
former occasion. If returned to Parliament he should
imitate, for he never expected to (qua!, the course of his
friend Mr. Howe, in obtaining a cheap Government, a
Reformed Church, and cheap Justice. If ever he found
himself at a loss in any great question, he should have re-
course to the integrity, wisdom, and experience of that
gentleman.—(lmmense cheering.)
In the evening a dinner was given to Mr. Hume, when
120 gentlemen sat down, and the Chair was taken by
Mr. James Mather.

Much activity prevailed i❑ the diplomatic
circles throughout the whole of yesterday. The reply of
the King of HOLLAND was taken into consideration by
the Council, and an order for the embargo on all Dutch
vessels was issued. It is said that the French Govern-
ment would issue a similar decree almost simultaneously
with that of the British Government, as the King of
HOLLAND'S refusal to evacuate the citadel of Antwerp had
been communicated to Prince TALLEYRAND immediately
on is arrival on Monday, who sent off a courier the same
afternoon with a despatch to the authorities at Calais,
whence it would be forwarded to the French capital,
through the medium of the telegraph.
TERMINATION OF THE • CARRIGEEN IN-
QuEsT.—After an investigation of the Carrigeen affair,
which took up 11 days, the inquest was, on Friday,
brought to a close. The Jury brought in the following
verdict :—" We find a verdict of Wilful Murder against
Captain BURKE, and a party of police under his command,
for killing CATHERINE FOLEY and JOSEPH SINNOTT On
the Sth of October, about the hour of twelve o'clock, on
the lands of Liquidstown, in the parish of Fortascully,
barony of Iverk, and county Kilkenny."
