SURREY.

The revival of Massinger's celebrated play, "A New
Way to Pay Old Debts," at this theatre last, night, was a
matter of no little interest. Firstly, because old playgoers
will remember that Sir Giles was one of the elder Kean's
pet parts; and, secondly, because it gave Mr. Vezin an
opportunity of displaying his great abilities to the fullest
extent, and thus to justify his claim to rank among the
first actors of the day. The character of Sir Giles
Overreach has been, to a certain degree, shunned by all new
aspirants for histrionic honours, owing to the many quali-
ties necessary for its embodiment. We have had plenty
of Othello's, Hamlet's, .and Macbeth's from America and
other places, yet, with one exception, and that was a failuie,
Mr. Vezin is the only person who has had the courage to risk
his fame on a portrayal of one of the most, if not the
most difficult character ever drawn by an author of the past
or present generation. With the result of last night's per-
formance Mr. Vezin may well be proud, and again con-
gratulating him on the admirable and effective manner in
which he performed his arduous and difficult task, we trust
that throughout his future career he will always do as he did
last night, trust entirely to himself in the conception and
execution of characters, and leave imitation to those to
whom nature has not vouchsafed the gift of genius. The
stage has, at length, a Sir Giles Overreach, which it has
not had since " the• Great Edmund" died.
In order to add to his attractions Mr. Calvert has effected
an engagement with Mr. H. Widdicombe for a limited
number of farewell performances, and last night he ap-
peared as Tommy Twinkle, in the pretty drama, "All that
Glitters is not Gold." He was most cordially welcomed to
the scene of his former triumphs, and acted throughout
with his usual ability and success.

Count Arese's-task in forming a ministry meets
with impediments. He swat to Bologna, by telegraph, for
M. Massimo d'Azeglio, who flatly refuses to join him.
A curious fact about Count Arese, the new
Minister imposed upon the King of Sardinia by the Em-
peror of the French, is narrated by the Inelependance Beige.
After the entry of the allied armies into Milan the Sar-
dinian Government nominated M. Rata zzi as governor of
that city. Napoleon refused to permit the appointment.
M. Cavour then suggested the name of M. Arese, but the
French Emperor again objected, saying that he had " other
views" with regard to the count.
In some quarters the appearance of a re-assuring
manifestos from the Emperor Napoleon is looked for, but
his Majesty's words no longer carry the weight that once
attached to them. N.o announcement of this kind, unless
involving a general diarmament, can restore eonficlenoe.—

ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND
DISEASE.

Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps,
SECOND LIFE ; or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus-
ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-
piled from the Note-book of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is ont which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being shown that the Elethical and
Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then by the action
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almcrat warranting the aeslgnatioli of
SECOND LIFE.

leasing. powers. The company already pos-
sessed authority under the Bill of 1855
to make an arrangement with the London and
North Western Company for working the line ;
and it would become a consideration before they
took any other step as to how far they could pro-
c ed under that Act.
Mr. WAGSTAFF, the solicitor, then read the
clauses retained in the Bill, which conferred powers
for an extension of time for making two new
branches ; also powers to purchase land between
the line at Cannock and the Birmingham Camll,
and to enable the company to raise more capital
for the works.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving a resolution approving
the Bill, said that, notwithstanding the leaQing
powers had been struck out, he had no doubt that
the railway had now attained such a position as to
traffic that there was no reason to fear a falling off
in the receipts; consequently, there was no danger
of their property declining in value.
Mr. J. B. PAYN seconded the motion, which was
unanimously adopted.
In reply to a question from a shareholder,
Mr. WAGSTAFF said he was of opinion that the
two companies already possessed sufficient powers
to make an agreement as .to the lease of the line ;
but ho was not prepared to say whether the Lon-
don and North-Western Company would make
another application to Parliament.

LEEDS, BRADFORD, AND HALIFAX
JUNCTION.

Yesterday a special meeting of the proprietors of
this railway was held at the offices of the company,
Great Northern Station, Bradford, for the purpose
of considering and approving the provisions of a
bill now pending in Parliament, entitled " A bill
to authorise the Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax
Junction Railway Company to construct a branch
to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway at Brad-
ford." Mr. E. Akioyd, chairman of the company,
presided.
Mr. NELSON, the company's solicitor, read the
marginal notes of the bill, which authoriseS the
creation of new stock to the extent of £40,000 for
making the contemplated branch, with a margin of
borrowing powers to the extent of £13,000. The
works are to be completed within three years. The
bill also gives po ver to purchase additional land to
the extent of five acres, and there is a clause autho-
rising the company to convert their bond debt into
preference shares or stock.
The CHAIRMAN moved a resolution approving
the bill, and authorising the common seal of th
company to be affixed thereto. In doing so he re-
capitulated the arguments originally adduced for
making the branch, which, by enabling this com-
pany to run their passenger trains into the Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire Company's station, situate in
the centre of the business part of Bradford, will
remedy an inconvenience long felt both by the pub-
lic and this company from the position of this corn-
pauy's present station. He congratulated the
shareholders upon the fact that the bill had been
unopposed in the House of Commons, and expressed
a hope that in its passage in the Lords it would
meet with no opposition.
Mr. BRAYSHAW seconded the motion.
The CHAIRMAN, in reply to a question, said the
branch would commence with a junction with this
company's line immediately beyond the ticket plat-
form at the Bradford station, and terminate with a
junction with the Lancashire and Yorkshire Rail--
way, very near the Lancashire and Yorkshire Com
pang's station at Bowling.
The resolution was then put and carried unani-
mously, and the meeting terminated.

CHANCERY COURT.

Viscount SYDNEY brought down an answer from her
Majesty in reply to the address to inquire into the system
of taking evidence in the Court of Chancery. Her Majesty
had considered the address and had ordered a Commission
to.issue for the purpose required.
BURIAL OF SUICIDES.

Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from Leicester
complaining of the conduct of a clergyman who had refused to
bury a man who had committed suicide, although a jury had
agreed to a verdict that the unfortunate party was insane.
The petitioners prayed that, if the clergyman in question
had acted in accordance with the law, that it might be
altered so as to prevent a repetition of such a proceeding.

M. Granier de Cassagnac tells the public in the
Pays that people in Paris have no idea of the immense pride
which the honest rustics of the provinces take in the
bravery of their Emperor. They are all, he says, familiar
with the story of the epaulette ,carried away by a ball. No
doubt .they are, for the anecdote has been most sedulously,
circulated by the prefectorial journals. The story is a very
pretty one, but unfortunately it is untrue, as M. de Cas-
sagnac knows, or at least has the means of knowing. The
simple truth about the epaulette is that the Emperor, who
wears the epaulettes of a general of division, took one off
to give to Brigadier-General Auger in token of his promo-
tion, while he was lying wounded on the field,
London, England, 1859-07-19

FURTHER HEARING,

The Attorney-General, Sir Richard Bethell, resumed
and concluded his argument for the respondents. The
learned counsel contended that the appellants were not en •
titled to a new trial on the ground of res judicala.
The appellants allege that they are entitled to a new
trial on the ground of having additional evidence to produce
competent, and omitted at the former trial.
Mr. George Young, of the Scotch bar, is now being
heard on the same side.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET

OBTAINING BILL-HEADS FOR FRAUDULENT PURPOSES,

—Alfred Elphinstone, a respectable-looking man, described
as a tailor, of 11, Richmond-street, Soho, and who, during
the hearing of the case, kept his face covered with his
pocket-handkerchief, was charged before Mr. Beadon with
obtaining 50 bill-heads from Mr. Halifax, printer, of Ox-
ford-street, in July, 1858, by false pretences.
Richard Henry Thatcher, in the employ of Mr. Halifax,
said about twelve months ago a person, who he believed to
be the prisoner, came and asked for 50 bill-heads for Messrs.
Gobby and Haynes, who were customers, and as he brought
the usual message they were given to him.

George Snelgrove, clerk to Messrs. Gobby and Haynes,
army clothiers, near Regent -street, said the firm were sup-
plied by Mr. Halifax with bill-heads, he being the person
whose duty it was to send for there when wanted. He gave
no order either to the prisoner or any one else in July of
last year for the bill-heads in question, and none were de-
livered to him. He only knew the prisoner as having for-
merly worked for the firm, but he believed a porter had
been connected with the prisoner.
Joy, 338 A, said a quantity of cloth, &c., had been ob-
tained by means of the bill-heads, and asked for a remand
that he might be prepared with the necessary evidence.

Mr. Beadon remanded the prisoner for a few days.
AN IMPOSTOR.—Mary Ann Brown was charged with
being drunk and inciting charity by pretending to have the
cholera. At the time she was taken into custody by Hill,
8t C, she was groaning as if in agony, but on the road to
the station she admitted that nothing was the matter with
her.

THE THEATRES.

DRURY-LANE.
The last twelve representations of the Italian• Opera
Company at this theatre commenced on Monday night,
and the prices to upper boxes, pit, and gallery have been
lowered, in order, as it is stated, to afford the " million an
opportunity of hearing the finest operatic artistes in the
world." At the conclusion of the present enterprise, Mr.
E. T. Smith has determined to try English opera, and he
invites ladies and gentlemen who have never had an oppor-
tunity of appearing on the lyric stage to attend at the
theatre, and if their voices are approved by two impartial
judges he offers them engagbments, at liberal salaries, to
appear at Drury-lane. in English operas, written expressly
for that establishment.

ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE 'IN HEALTH AND
DISEASE.

Just Published, price is., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps,
SZECOND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal of all who are suffering from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus-
ing tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-

piled from the Note-bOok of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and
Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then by the action
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almost warranting the designation of
SECOND LIFE.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN AMOROUS TALLOW CHANDLER—CURIOUS CHARGE.
—William Butler, a tallow chandler, residing at 25, Greek-
street, Soho, was charged with being in the house No. 7,
Nassau-street, Soho, fir an unlawful purpose.
From the evidence of Michael Phillips, a waiter, and
who, from the nature of his occupation, is frequently out
all night, it appeared that on the previous evening, about
about six o'clock, he went home, suspecting all was not
right, and on knocking at the door several times could not
gain admittance ; he therefore resorted to the window, and
on opening it to his very great surprise saw the prisoner in
the act of buttoning up his clothes. He then gave him
into custody; and he wished to stath that it was not
the first time he had caught him in his house—on one oc-
casion on going home early in the morning he found him
in a state of nudity under his bed. He had told him to
keep away, but he would not, and his wife encouraged him
to visit her.

A constable said he had been drinking at the time.
Prisoner said he would admit he had been drinking.
Mr. Bingham ordered the prisoner to enter into his own
recognisances for three months to keep away from the com-
plainant's house and to be of good behaviour.
TIA wife, who was in court during the hearing of the
case, and conduted herself with great levity, here exclaimed
" May I speak ?"

Mr. Bingham—No. We do not want to hear anything
of your affairs.
The wife—Where's the child?

A person in court (significantly)—Whose child P
The required recognizance being entered into, the parties

THE OLD BAILEY SESSIONS HOUSE,

Mr. Deputy 'WHITE brought up a report from
the City Lands Committee, recommending the exe-
cution of certain works at the Sessions House, Old
Bailey, at the expense of about £B,OOO.
The report was ordered to be printed (without
being read) and its discussion adjourned.

NEW POLICE RATE.
Some weeks ago a report was brought up from the
Police Committee, recommending the levying of a'
rate of sd. in the pound for the three-quarters of
the year terminating at Christmas next, to which
recommendation objection was taken that the com-
mittee had in hand a large sum which they had
accumulated for the purpose of building new
police stations, which were not required, and that
the money so accumulated ought to be taken into
account as an available balance in levying the new
rate; the report was upon this ground referred
back to the committee for re-consideration, and an
amended report was now presented stating that in
deference to the wish of the court the committee
had given instructions to sell out £15,000 of the
reserved fund for building police stations, and recom-
mending that the rate, instead of being 5d., should
be reduced to 3d. for the three quarters, making
sd. in the pound for the entire year.
The report was unanimously agreed to.
THE BAILIEWICK OF SOUTHWARK.
The court then proceeded to the election of a high
bailiff for the borough of Southwark, the office
being vacant by the death of Mr. D. W. Pritchard.
There were only two candidates, viz., Mr. W.
Gresham, solicitor, and Mr. B. W. Jones, also a
solicitor, of 15, Old Jewry-chambers, of whom the
former was chosen by the court.
The court then adjourned.

DEATH OF MR. JOSEPH STURGE.

Mr. Joseph Sturge, of Birmingham, died• sud-
denly at his residence, Edgbaston, at 7 o'clock this

cause of death.
