ADELPHI THE A TRE.
A travestte f E=4nerulda was proeuevii 'ae chi- theatre
lest evenine. It ;professes to be a • urle Kle, but is
enly parially re. The action, erenery, dresses and
characters ot the novel, in a drametised toren, are closely
followed, so much so that the piece might Pass ter a
spectacle;" and in this respect it has some very brilliant
effects. The principal characters are slightly trevrsti d,
hut scarcely enough so to make them humorous The
best attempt ot this kind is the Captaiu Ptnebtis of Miss
Woolgar, a dashing young lisp, Iv tau revels in alt the
privileged of a guardsman, teases his bride, quizess
his mother-inslaw, and, when keeping his midnight as-
signatien with Esmeralda, provides for her a lobster sup-
per. This part was tilled out by Miss Woolgar with a
great deal of dash and and humorous swagger. Fleur
de Lye, who has some vixenish tendencies, and quarrels
provokingly with her lover, was also converted into se
amusing burlesque character, by Miss Kathleen Fitz-
william. who sang some songs, as she always duos, with
great effect. Mr. O. Smith was the Claude Froths, and
was especially amusing in the lohster-aupper aecue,
where he joins, unperceived by the lovers, in
pas de fascination. Another scene, where, having been
thrown over the tower by Quasimodo, he hangs in mid.
air by a spout, his garments (bought at a sloe-Atop)
gradually giving way, was scarcely a subject for late-
morous treatment. Mr. Wright'e Pierre Gringoire we
chiefly amusing by reason of his grotesque daimie g with
Madame Celeste (Esmeralda) in the well-known
truandaise. The Qaasimodo of Mr. C. J. Smith was al-
most too reel for burlesque. The dialogue of the piece
is occasionally await and eft cove, aid the introduced
songs and choruses from Der Fretsrhutz, and The Hu-
guenots, &c., are cleverly managed. Tne s ory i f the ori-
ginal is c irried on to the preparations for the execution of
Esmeralda, and her rescue by the appearance, ' safe and
sound, ot P:.cebus, alter he has been fished up by the
Dragsman from the Seins ; and then comes a grand denoue-
ment, brought about by a magic whistle, sounded by Es-
meralda, which converts the scene into a distribution of
prizes. The tickets are drawn Irons a lottery-box by
Mr. Paul Bedford, the chief of the gipsies. ' -Corres-
ponding tickets bad been given to different persons in
the theatre, and as the rrizes were drawn, the helders
were informed that the afferent articles would be depo-
sited with the box-keepers. The last prize was in the
shape of the well-known statuette of Dorothea; person-
ated by a living damsel. The holder of this prize
was a member of the company (Mr. Worrell)
seated in the stalls; and roars of laughter arose
when Mr. Wright appeared in a private box,
as his indignant spouse, protesting against his
taking " that 3 oung woman " home with him. The
acting of Worrell was excellent, his reception of the" cur-
tain It e" of his Letter half was the very perfectionnf
Job Caueleism. The piece terminates with a brilliant
scenic effect, resplendent with blue fire and so forth, and
introducing characters from successful Adelphi dramas.
The piece was successful, and was announced for repe-
tition every evening until further notice by Madame
Celeste, eh°, it should be added, contributed in a great
measure to its success by some very clever dancing.

SUN DAY LET'T'ERS.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING Pi ST.
Sir,—ln your Parliamentary report of this day it is
stated that - Mr. Loch presented a petition from a place
near Bath, praying that at least one delivery of letters
may take place on Sundays." The words !used would
naturally lead your readers to suppose that it was an
address from a small neighbouring village, and not the
important petition which was presented by Mr. Locke
from the city of Bath itself, as well as its vicinity, and
rhich was signed by several county and other magis-
rates (one of whom was High Sheriff of the county
of Somerset until March last), six admirals, and many
other inhabitants et' high respectability, consisting of
clergy of the EstnblishLd Church, physiciaue, general
and .other ufficc rs, &e: .

Requesting you will be good enough to insert the
above explanation,.

I remain, your obedient servant,
ONE OF THE PETITIONERS.

Tar. NEPAULESE PRINCES.—ARTIFICIAL FRIMZ.•
ING.— Yesterday these interesting strangers visited Mr.
asastera' large premises, which adjoin the Polytechnic Insti-
tution, Regent-street, to inspect his freezing and other patent
inventions. The entire suite remained upwards of an hour
to witness the process of artificially producing ice by various
apparatuses, which vary in dimensions from a quart-pot to a
good-sized chetronier. So great was the astonishment et the
Princes at the instantaneous manner in which the ice was
produce(' by Mr. Masters, that it was evident they regarded
him as a magician. Upon the process being explained to
them by their interpreter, they manifested the greatest de-
light at the idea of being able in future. in India, with such
certainty and rapidity, to produce ice. We tnay remark that
Mr. Masters' apparatus will produce ice wi bout the aid of
ice, and that the freezing mixtures which he manufactures
remain unimpaired for any length of time in the hottest cli-
mates. His process must, therefore, be invaluable to resi-
dents in India. It is also evidently a very economical means
for producing ice in our own climate during the summer
season, as ice of the greatest purity can be produced at the
expense of a few pence, for sherry coblers, &c., at all times,
in perfection, from pure water. His other inventions for
making soda and other aerated waters, also excited much in-
terest.—Morning Chronicle.

SINGULAR FREAK.—CLOSING TEMPLE-BAR.--On
Friday night—or, rather, on Saturday morning - about two
o'clock. a scene took place which, it it had occurred during
the short sway of the renowned Cuffey and his red-hot
Chartist confederates, would doubtless have given rise to
serious apprehensions for the safety of her Majesty's good
and loyal citizens, but in these days of peace and tranquillity
tended merely to bring about half-atdoz ai of the blue bottle
guardians of the night from their regular bests, and gave
rise to a good deal of merriment amongst the cabmen on the
adjoining rank, as well as the loose fish in the vicinity who
were on the look out. A cilia- set, middle-aged man, in the
garb of an engineer, from some strange cause or other, took
it into his head to close Temple-bar, and with a strength
and adroitness that was perfectly marvellous, he, with a
single swing at each, drew both the ponderous doors under

his presence was required in the House of Lords. In the
