Mr. Love, the Polyphonist, was last night engaged
by the Lady Mayoress, to deliver one of his celebrated
entertainments, in the Egyptian-hall, at the Mansion-
house, before a party of about 700 lathes and gentlemen.
Notwithstanding the immense height and size of the
hall, which was evidently a 'great dis odvantage to the
vocal portions of the entertainment, Mr. Love acquitted
himself in a manner which drew forth the hearty ap-
plans,+ of all present.
SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY MORNING •••••• By the
Havre packet jest arrived we learn that the advices re-
ceived there from New York, via Liverpool, had
yesterday a most favourable effect on the market,
causing active sales and an advance of about one franc
on all kinds. 2,600 bales were disposed of up to two
o'clock. Havre has fortunately escaped (owing to fa-
vourable winds and position) the anticipated high tides,
but in the Bay of Caen they were immense, and did
considerable damage.
IMroRTATION or TALLOW.—The vessel Dove,
arrived in the River from Yarmouth, has brought 12?
casks, 3i tons weight, of tallow, ex the ship Samuel,
from St. fetersburgh, wrecked at that plane.

THE NORTHERN STATES

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Advices have been received from Vienna to the
26th. At that date it was rumoured that in January
the EMPEROR would publish a proclamation suspending
mero motu the Constitution for two years.
The Austrian Cabinet has been frightened from its
propriety by the rumour of an alliance between
Prussia, France, and England.
The Austrian Ministry, in its poverty, is
casting a longing eye on the vast
estates of Prince CZARTORYSKY in Galicia,
and the forgery department of the Austrian chancery
is busied in concocting documentary evidence of a
fabulous conspiracy with which Prince CZATORTSKY
is to be connected, in order that he may
be robbed of his estates. The following
extract from that Conat Blak au.s Bohmen may be
considered as the first overt act in this conspiracy of
plunder :—The Imperial Royal Criminal Commis-
sion, which has recently been sitting! at Breslau, is
ih possession of multifarious documents, calculated to
throw great light upon the plans of the Propagandists
in Paris. "Prince CZARTORTSLY in Paris," says
the paper in question, " is supposed to be so deeply
implicated that the confiscation of his great estates
in Galicia is not improbable."

had the Prince been a Prussisn subject, he would
have had trial by jury, and might probably have
escaped the contemplated injustice. In Austria,
however, where justice is scoffed at, he stands no
chance.

The Duke of BOURDEA.IIX is about to proceed to
Venice.

Serious disturbances have broken out in Croatia,
and three priests, who preached obedience to the
EMPEROR, have been seized and hanged by
their con-
gregations.

DANUBIAN PRINCIPALITIES.
The Lloyd states, from Semlin of the 11th ult.,
that a battalion of foot has been brought by steamer
from Sissed to Mitrovitz, whence they marched to
Peterwaradin. It was asserted that large masses of
troops were moving towards the Turkish frontier.

DRURY LANE THEATRE.

The Road to Ruin yeas revived here last evening
for the purpose of introducing to us several performers
new to the metropolitan boards, and the whole of
whom are likely, we are happy to say, to prove per-.
manent acquisitions. Mrs. Winstanley, who appeared
as the Widow Warren, is a lady of considerable
personal attractions—her features are handsome, her
figure well developed, well proportioned, and com-
manding, her deportment at once vivacious and grace-
ful, and her voice excellent. She acted the widow
to perfection, and made a decided hit. Mr. Basil Baker,
who appeared as Old Dornton, acted the part of the
old man with considerable pathos and effect, and
Miss Baker, who appeared as Sophia, played with
great spirit; her voice is very clear and power•
ful, and her enunciation particularly distinct.
The part of the soubrette was entrusted to
Miss Annie Lonsdale, who performed it with a
most fascinating espiegierie. Mr. Anderson as harry,
Mr. P. Vining as Goldfinch, and Mr. Emery as
Silky, were all excellent. The house was very well
attended.

We now come to Historical Facts, therefore, as the Clown at
Astley's would say, " Let us Ise serious." it Is an historical fact,
that the Earl of Essex loved, or pretended so, Good Queen Bess,
therefore he hated the Earl of Leicester, and thence arose a conspi
racy—Sir Walter Italeth fears his pipe will be put out —Bacon gets
quite in a frizzle, and Lord Burleigh shakes his head—but there's
nothing in that, whatever they may say to the contrary.
It is an historical fact, that Good Queen Bess was assisted at her
toilet by many of her noblemen, therefore the

Madrid journals of the Ist have arrived.
Two of them, the l'ais and the Nacion, an-
nounce, on the authority of letters from Paris, that
the Montemolinists intend to resume hostilities at the
beginning of the spring. Both these journals declare
that the Alonteniolinists have money at their command,
and the Count DE MONTEMOLINO has addressed cir-

to Catalonia, Aragon, Valencia, &c.; and it further
states that two expeditions by sea, under the order of

Count DE MONTEMOLINO'S brothers, are contemplated.
All this had created considerable sensation in Madrid ; '
but it was believed that it was much exaggerated.
Royal decrees in the Gazette announce the appoint-
ment of M. J. DE LA GETZ OSES to the post of
Under- Secretary to the Department of the
Interior, of M. BALLESTEROS to the Director-
Generalship of direct taxes; and another decree
transfers the management of all affairs respect-
ing what are called the passive classes of state cre-
ditors to the Minister of Finance. The Chamber of
Deputies, on the 31st ult., was occupied in discussing
the validity of certain elections. On the Ist postal
reform came into operation, and stamps for prepaying
letters were issued for the first time. There was a
report that the Cortes would be dissolved after the
discussion of the budget. The Three per Cents. on
the Ist were done at 294 (ex. div.), but that day being
a holiday the Stock- Exchange was not open.

TURKEY AND RUSSIA,

Great doubt exists as to the truth of the
announcement of the settlement of the Russo-
Turkish question. Russia is, it is said, manceuver-
ing to gain time, and the EMPEROR has refused
to accept the guarantee offered by the SULTAN
on the subject of the Polish refugees, and insists on
their expulsion. The Ministers of the Divan, on the
17th ult., met in a grand Council, and, it is stated,
gave an important decision, to the effect that they
will not resume negotiations but on the footing pre-
viously proposed and adopted by M. Trrorr and M.
STURMER and the Porte.

On the 15th the SULTAN suddenly made his
appearance at the Grand Council while the
Ministers were in full discussion, and joined
in their labours for upwards of an hour.
Subsequently, in a neat speech, he recommended
union, and caused the Ministers to take each a
solemn oath, to the effect that party spirit will be
done away with henceforth, and that no animosity
should exist among their ranks, which ought at the
present time to be directed in guarding against the
enemies of the state. The warlike preparations of the
Porte still continue. The militia pours in daily, and a
few days back recruits of Rumelia began to make
their appearance. In this city there is such a
flux of troops that the barracks are crowded,
and about severity khans (caravanseras) are occupied
by the new comers. The several strongholds of
Turkey are likewise being fortified—among others,
a mint of money is being spent on the fortress of
bhumla.

A few days back a three decker was launched.
General DEMIDOIT, at the head of 4,000 Russians,

HAMB URGH.

JAN. 3.—The weather has now set in so decidedly
cold and frosty that the Elbe will be firmly covered
with ice in the course of a day or two. At present
the mouth of the harbour is kept pretty clear by the
workmen, but this cannot last. The temperature is
3 deg. Three ice-boats have gone out to sea,
carrying pilots for any vessels that may want to
enter the Elbe. The navigation is still kept open,
though with difficulty, between Hamburgh and liar-
burgh.

The Court was occupied the greater part of the morn.
,ng with the trial of Mint cases.

BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
A middle-aged man, whose name did not transpire,
was charged with begging. -
The prisoner was observed last night to beg of'several
gentlemen, and when taken into custody 3s. 2d., with
plenty of eatables, were found upon him.
In reply to questions from the Bench, he made a
rambling statement about his being in the receipt of an
annuity, amounting to 83. per week, and talked inco-
herently of the manner in which he had been treated by
the police.
•
Mr. HENRY—I am afraid he is not sane.
Prisoner—Oh ! bless you, I am, quite.
Mr. HENRY—Then, what excuse have you for begging
when you had so much money about you ? Prisoner—
Really now, it's all a mistake. I have a clean pipe in my
pocket, and I simply asked a gent'« man, who was smok-
ing, if he could favour me with half-a-pipe of tobacco ;
but Mr. Jennings, of Clement's Inn, has got my bond;
and be won't advance me more than .Bs. a week, you
see, because if I was to die ho would lose all he had paid
me in advance.

Mr. HENRY directed the ofliccr who had him in
charge to take him to the Strand Union, to be examined
by a medical man, as it was quite evident ho was not in
his right senses.

Th-c p isout r was eccordingly removed.
A-respectably-attired man, named Jones, and a young
woman were charged with creating a disturbance' outside
a pubic house in St. Giles's.: •

It, appeared that, betwe9w three and four o'clock this
morning, the landloid Of the • public house turned (Mt'
about a score of men and women, amongst • whom Were
the prisoners. They made so much noise, that ut least
a dr'zen policemen were drawn off their •teats' to' the•
spot, and one of them saw the two prisoners' pitch into"
a third party as he (merged from the tavern, which in-
duced him to take them into custody.

house, nod the party in question, who was very drut,k,

CRIMINAL COURT.—(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
(Before the RECORDER

Daxiel Fitzge7ald, who pleaded Guilty to the offence
of returning from transportation, and against whom
since his return several charges of theft had been pre-
ferred at the police-office;, was sentenced to be trap.
sported for life, and to be previously imprisoned in
Newate for one calendar month.

Thomas Peak pleaded Guilty to a charge of forging
orders for the delivery of goods, with intent to defraud
one Thomas Broad, and was sentenced to imprisonment
for three calendar months.

John AtacLaughlan, a respectably-dressed man, about
35 years of age, was indicted for u misdemeanour, under
the 6 and 7 Vic., c. 96, commonly called Lord Campbell's
Act, in baring, as was alleged, threatened to write and
publish a libel on the Hudson's Bay Company, with the
intent to extort money.
The defendant, who was permitted to stand on the
floor of the court instead of the dock, pleaded Not
guilty.

The counsel for the prosecution were Mestere. Clark-
son and Ballantine; and the defendant was represented
by Mr. Parry.
Mr. CLARKSON had begun to open the case for the
prosecution, and was about to read a letter written by
the defendant, which formed the subject-matter of the
alleged libel, when he was interrupted by
The RECORDER asking him it the defendant was
charged with threatening to libel any particular individual
or individuals, or only the Hudson's Bay Company, as
a body corporate?
Mr. CLARKSON said the indictment charged the de-
fendant with threatening to libel the Hudson's Bay
Company.
The RECORDER said, that being so, he was of
opinion the charge could not be sustained under the
indictment. He apprehened that the section of the
Act of Parliament, under which the indictment was
framed, applied to the case of individuals alone whose
fears might be worked upon by the threat of publishing
that which would give them pain or do them an injury,
and it was not in its terms in point of law legally appli-
cable to the case of a corporation, principally because it
had not used apt words to express a corporation. He,
therefore, thought the counsel for the prosecution had
not brought themselves within the precise language of
the Act of Parliament. The Act in question clearly
contemplated the case of individuals only; but this was
the case of a great public body amenable to public opi-
nion, and it could well disregard the threat of- a wan
who said he would turn patriot and submit certain state-
ments concerning them to the public.
Mr. CLARKSON said, under those circumstances he
would not further press the case, and intimated that pro-
bably the prosecution on consultation might think it ad-
visable to put the defendant on his trial for an offence at
common law.

Mr. PARRY, for the defendant, said he wished it to
go forth to the public that he should have been fully
able to resist the charge of attempting to extort money
under any reasonable construction of the law.
The defendant was then liberated.

Viscount Goucu took the oaths and his seat. The
gallant veteran arrived shortly after four o'clock, and

table robed as a Viscount. He was introduced by Viscount
liawarden and Viscount Hardinge, who were also robed.
Having taken the oaths, the Noble and Gallant Lord

Chancellor then approached him and shook bands with
him cordially, as did several other Noble Lords. The

excellent health. After remaining upon the Viscounts'
bench for a short time, he (having previously retired and
disrobed) returned and took his seat upon the cross
