SOUTHAMPTON, ►SATURDAY MORNING.

The North German Lloyd screw steamer Bremen,
Captain H. Wessels, which' left New York on the
26th ult., arrived off Cowes early this morning,
and proceeded for Bremen after transhipping mails,
&c., for this port. She brought seven passengers
for Southampton, 12 for Havre, and 119 for Bre-
men, and about 1,300 tons of cargo. Her advices
are anticipated by the Etna. The arrival of the
Bremen was retarded by an accident sustained in
the early part of the voyage. She experienced
heavy north-easterly gaits during the first two days
from New York, and on the second day shipped a
heavy sea, which got into the boiler-room, lifted
the platform, filled the bilge with ashes and coals,
and choked the pumps. The ship was obliged to be
brought to, and stood to the northward for 36 hours
to clear the bilge and pumps. Pleasant weather
was experienced the latter part of the voyage. On
the 6th inst., in lat. 49 22, long. 17 15, the Bremen
spoke the English bark Witch of the Wave, steer-
ing to the eastward.

A NOVEL FEATURE IN THE OPERA OF " NORMA."
—Pechter, it would appear, Is not alone in his novel stage
renderings. Last night a most humorous, though in a
sense disagreeable incident occurred in the Queen's Theatre
in the opera of Norma. In the ninth scene of the second
act, where Norma reproaches Pollio for his infidelity, and
where the latter rushes after the former towards the gong,
Mdlle. Titiens, in her impatience to strike the "sacred
bronze," that " a new victim" might be revealed to the
assembled Druids, Bards, and Warriors, by some mischance
brought the mallet in contact with the nasal organ of
Signor Giuglini, as Polio, and made a bleeding victim of
him on the spot. The accident was not observed till a
minute or two afterwards, when the Signor, from loss of
blood, had to retire. The fair cantatrice, evidently much
disconcerted, could not proceed, and the curtain suddenly
, dropped, greatly to the astonishment of the audience, few
of whom had noticed the occurrence. Mr. Wyndham im-
mediately appeared, and explained that a alight accident
had occurred to Signor Giuglini ; and in a few minutes the
Signor presented himself again, and, with the blushing
priestess, brought the opera to a brilliant close.—Caledonian
Mercury, November 9.

p
to claimants who had a friend at Court, a county member,
or a powerful nobleman to be conciliated by the disposal of
patronage. But the chaplain of Preston had not learned
the art of getting on in the profession, as the Times described
it with infinite humour a few weeks ago. The arts by which.
a bishopric was got in the days of patronage ought not to
be told to the unitiated, or, else, as in the days of Cicero,
one augur could not look another in the face without laugh-
ing. In these respects Mr. Clay was as simple as Henry
Goldsmith, and Preston was the prosaic Auburn where ho
spent his days, and retired from it only to die. But Mr,
Clay did not live for nothing if he taught the clergy to treat
fame at its proper worth. In these days of clerical Blon-
dinism, when Hayley's gilt tub is set up again as in the
days of Pope, it is well to set before us the example of a
man who lived only for his work and left his reputation to
take care of itself.—Dublin Unity? sity Magazine.
