cious Lake, to be fully appreciated.

LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 15, 1844.

The aspect of affiiirs in Italy is calculated to
arouse the liveliest emotions of regret, the profoundest
sentiments of indignation, in every European bosom,
whose pulses still throb to the recollections of Italian
greatness. It is not enough, it seems, that she
should have expiated, by the political humiliation and
moral debasement of ages, the magnificent crime of
having usurped in the Roman Empire the dominion
of the known world, and for many years maintained
it against all antagonists. It is not enough that she
who, for centuries, marched at the head of civilisation,
letters, and refinement, should in these latter times have
fallen far into the rear of that social progress which
in more northern kingdoms is so rapidly extending
itself. Italy is parcelled out into territorial sections,
one only of which, Tuscany, is blessed with anything
like sound political institutions and guarantees for life
and property. In all the others, she is once more
exposed to the same sanguinary and vindictive
tyranny which desolated her fairest provinces through.
out the eventful struggles of the Middle Ages ; thai
is to say, to the supersession of the laws by the arbi.
trary mandate of the Sovereign—not palliated, but
rendered more intolerable, by the intervention of arbi-
trary Commissions, whose functions, for the moss
part, are limited to the mockery of passing 'sen-
tences on political offenders, always in servile confor-
mity with the will of the powers from whence the ju-
risdiction is derived, and to the recording their own
decrees, always irregular, generally iniquitous. But
with the tyrannous excesses, the various communities
of unhappy Italy inherit nothing of the chivalrous
grandeur, derive none of the political advantages, of
the conflicts that distinguished the Middle Ages. For
if these latter too often affirmed the power, and con-
solidated the ill-gotten acquisitions of her petty
Princes and her brigand Barons—her BORGIAS, her
MANFREDS, her CASTRUCCANIS—they gradually ex-
tended privileges of Cie municipal democracies,
developed the resources of industry, cherished and
the
rewarded mercantile enterprise, and finally elevated
to the highest pinnacle of political influence and
authority, that mercantile opulence whose great-
ness was destined so soon to absorb their
own. Under the protection of such commercial
Republics as Genoa, Venice, and Florence, the Italian

LONDON, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1844

In the House of Lords a Bill was read a second
time to simplify the transfer of real property.
The Bishop of EXETER moved for a Select Com-
mittee to inquire into the state of religious worship
and spiritual instruction in the union workhouses
in England and Wales. The speech of this Puseyite
Prelate was what might have been expected. It
was all Church, and full of hostility to Dissenters.
He wished, as a matter of course, to raise the au-
thority of the Church above all other authorities,
and told the Government, that if they refused a Com-
mittee of Inquiry the glory of the Ministry would
be eclipsed. The Committee was refused, for the
motion was negatived without a division. We refer our
readers to the report to show what priests can do.
The House adjourned at Half-past Seven.
In the Commons, Mr. C. RUSSELL moved the second
reading of the Newbury and Great Western Railway
Bill. Sir WM. HEATHCOTE opposed the motion, un-
less he had a clear understanding from Mr. RUSSELL
that no opposition would be made to another com-
peting line, that by the South Western Company from
Basingstoke to Newbury. A brief discussion took
place. Mr. GLADSTONE thought the second reading
of the Bill should be deferred for a fortnight, and Mr.
C. RUSSELL had no objection. The second reading
was accordingly postponed for a fortnight.
Capt. PECHELL gave notice that on Thursday next
he should make a 'motion relative to defaulters in the
payment of assessed taxes.
On the motion of Sir J. GRAHAM, after some ex-
planation with regard to the Gilbert Unions, the
Poor-law Amendment Bill was read a second time,
with an understanding that the discussion on the
Bill was to take place on going into Committee.
In answer to a question from Mr. WALLACE, Sir
G. CLERK said that the Government had given di-
rections, hireference to the free-postage paper, to
have a certain number of half-sheets prepared, as an
, experiment, which would be ready in a few days for
F delivery. The papers would be sold at 2s. 3d. a
quire, and lid. each.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL resumed the debate on
the state of Ireland. The greater part of his speech
referred to the mode of conducting the State trials
in Ireland, and to the course which he had pursued
under similar circumstances in England, and was
distinguished by great moderation and good feeling
towards his opponents.

Bill was to take place on going into Committee.
In answer to a question from Mr. WALLACE, Sir
G. CLERK said that the Government had given di-
rections, in reference to the free-postage paper, to
have a certain number of half-sheets prepared, as an
experiment, which would be ready in a few days for
delivery. The papers would be sold at 2s. 3d. a
quire, and 4d. each.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL resumed the debate on
the state of Ireland. The greater part of his speech
referred to the' mode of conducting the State trials
in Ireland, and to the course which he had pursued
under similar circumstances in England, and was
distinguished by great moderation and good feeling
towards his opponents.

OXFORD UNIVERSITY BOAT RACES.
The annual four-oared races on the Isis, for a silver
cup and medals given by the University Boat Club, was
decided on Wednesday. The trial heats came off on the
two days previous, when St. John's beat Exeter, Baliol
beat Trinity, St. John's beat Baliol, and University beat
St. John's. The final heat between the University crew
and the Oriel crew, the holders of the cup and medals,
caused considerable interest amongst the lovers of aqua-
tic amusements, and the banks of the Isis were thronged
with spectators. The University crew were the favour-
ites, although the Oriel had procured a fine new boat to
row in, differently constructed from the Oxford boats,
being made after the fashion of the Newcastle boats.
The distance was from Offley to Oxford, rather more
than a mile. The University crew went off at a slashing
pace, and although much pressed by the Oriel crew, who
were close upon their stern, maintained the lead through-
out, and won gallantly by two boats' lengths. This is
the third time within four years that the cup has been
won by the University crew. The crew on the present
occasion consisted of Messrs. A. K. Dawson (bow) ;
Follett, 2 ; A. Gray, 3 ; F. C. Walsh (stroke) ; C. H
Shebbeare (coxswain).

TIIE WEATHER.--A sharp frost set in in this neigh-

has prevailed for some time to a most alarming extent
in all parts of the town.—Liverpool Paper.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

We visited Drury-lane last evening, and again
saw the Daughter of St. Mark, which is running a
glorious career of triumph. This opera will not only
bear, but absolutely requires to be seen more than
once, in order to obtain anything like a proper idea of
its merits. So transcendently magnificent is the spec-
tacle, that, dazzled and overwhelmed by the blaze of
splendour by which he finds himself surrounded, the
spectator, on his first visit, can be a spectator only—
" The eyes are made the fools of the other senses,
Or else worth all the rest ;"
and it is not until a second visit that the spectator
can become an auditor, and properly appreciate the
exquisite music of this very beautiful opera. Belle
has, as a composer, taken higher ground in this than
in any of his former operas. It is a perfect and uni-
form whole—an opera—a grand opera, in the highest
sense of the word, and one which will tend to extend,
to consolidate, and to perpetuate his fame as
a man of genius, and a most accomplished and
scientific musician. The melodies are as beautiful as
those of any of his former compositions, while
the instrumentation is more elaborate, and the
harmonies of a more perfect and a more
scientific cast. But as we said before, in order
properly to appreciate this opera, it should be
seen more than once. The music grows upon one,
and the oftener it is heard the more will it be ad-
mired. The opera was followed by a very pretty
divertissement, which introduced to the English stage
for the first time Mons. and Madame Finart, from the
opera Madrid. They appeared in a grand pas de deux,
in which they were much applauded. They are most
elegant and graceful dancers, and not deficient in
force either, for some of their pas were most astonish-
ing as mere tours de force; but these tours were so
gracefully executed, that the idea of force was lost in
that of grace. They afterwards danced the
Bolero of Seville, with that mingled expression of
dignity and coquetry which is characteristic of all
Spanish dances. Their Andalusian costume was very
splendid, and became them exceedingly. They were
much applauded, and they are certainly a great addi-
tion to the admirable corps de ballet of this theatre.
We had, in addition, a pas de deux, exquisitely danced
by Clara Webster and her brother; the Redowa,
given with most Cereto-like espieglerieby Plunkett,
who was excellently supported by Montessu ; a pas
de trois by Delferier, Clara Webster, and Madame
Guibilei; and a most amusing grotesque pas chinois
by Mr. W. H. Payne and his clever little daughter,
which convulsed the house with laughter, and which
was deservedly encored. The divertissement con-
cluded with the Polkas by the whole corps de ballet.
The house was, as might have been expected, crowded
to overflowing before the commencement of the opera.

DEATH OP HER ROYAL HIGH-
NESS THE PRINCESS SOPHIA MATILDA.

This amiable and benevolent Princess expired at
her mansion on Blackheath, yesterday morning, after
a short illness. Her Royal Highness had been un-
well at intervals for some time past. The lamented
Princess was in the 72d year of her age, having
been born on the 23d of May, 1773, and was sister
to the late Duke of Gloucester.

Her Royal Highness had resided many years in
the parish of Greenwich, and was the Ranger of
Greenwich Park.

The poor and afflicted have lost a sincere friend
and benefactor. Her Royal Highness, it is well
known, expended a large portion of her income in
works of charity, and was first in patronising all
subscriptions for the benefit of deserving objects, not
only in her own immediate locality, but elsewhere.
As Ranger of the Park the Princess was always so-
licitous to afford accommodation to the residents of
the neighbourhood, as well as the public generally.
