THE FRENCH REPUBLIC

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
They all contain tributes of respect to the memory
of Sir ROBERT PErn, by whose untimely death,
" peace and civilization have," to use words of the
Constitdionnel, "been deprived of one of their most
admirable defenders."
M. AP.MAND .MARRAST is now regularly installed
28 one of the writers for the Credit. In the course
of a long article on the recent debate on foreign
policy in the English House or Commons, he thus
does justice to the merits of Lord PALMERSTON :
" His fellow-countrymen (says M. Armand Marrast)
know that he has the eye open and tie hand ready;
that, in place of sleeping honourably like Lord Abet -
deco, he is agitated even to disquietude by all that
touches the power of his country. Confiding with
humble and simple people, keener than the most keen,
pitiless towards disloyal trickery, he pursues with
all the haughtiness of a Briton the traditior al
policy cf the Whigs, modified only by his own
nature, which seems to have a horror of repose. Add
to that, oratorical powers of the first order, and which.
rever showed themseves so supple as on this occasion.
He appears to have been determined to differ from him-
self; neither sarcasm, nor challenge, nor petulance, but
an admirable continuation of clear recitals and sober

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
One of those delightful operas which used to de-
light us a quarter of a century past, 1.1 Matrimonio
Segreto (the Clandestine Marriage) was performed
on Thursday evening for Signor Puzzi's benefit. The
great Lablache was in his glory, and, of course, the
popular duet "Se fiato in corpo avete" was encored.
Signor Calzolari sung with much taste the music of
Paulin°, and the aunt and sisters were per-
formed with the greatest spirt and artistic
finish by Mademoiselle Parodi and Mesdames
Sontag and Frezzolini. Madame Sontag's fioriture
were, as they always are, the acme of good taste, and
were admired by every one. Fri zzolini was charming
in every thing, and Mdlle. Parodi, by her excellent
acting and singing, is increasing nightly in popularity.
Several choregraphic displays by Anne. Amalia
Ferraris were applauded to the echo ; and Signor
Colletti sang the last scena from I due Foscari with
the most heartrending pathos. Tne first- act of
Capulette ed illiontecchi concluded the night's en-
tertainments, which was one of the longest Thursdays
we ever recollect at the Opera.

arguments, a calm exposal of all the political acts in
which he had taken part, an historical summary so ably
cunnected together, that his juAiflevion was reflected
from it as light is from a glass. What, besides, is the
most striking matter in the whole, is the half-hidden
point of the speech. He there speaks with reverence of
the enterprises of Russia; but one feels that this rival
power is the real moving power of the recent acts of
Lord Palmerston. A formidable English force in the
bay of Salamis to terrify the Grteks ! That would
be highly ridiculous. But remember that Austria
_

had just placed herself under the guardianship of
Nicholas ; that the hand of the Czar presses heavily
on tip Danubian provinces ; and that he had
just claimed in a haughty tone the Hungarian refu-
gees who had found an asylum in the states of the
Sultan. It is then that the English fleet appeared in
the Dardanelles, and when Russia gave way on that
point, Lord Palmerston goes and proves to Greece that
the protection of the Czar is powerless when England
chooses to brave it. All this affair of Greece, violent
and puerile at the same titre, is only serious when its
real origin is looked to. Such is, in my idea, the double
character and the double bearing of the discussion
which has just taken place in the House of Commons.
On the one hand, a great English interest, of a perma-
nent character, and which ought to arouse all her
vigilance—the aggrandisement of the Russian power;
and, on the other, a more geneal idea, but which'springs
from the other—to de'end the threshold of the English
power against accomplices of these oppressive and
despotic powers, which, thanks to a similar turning
round, executed sixty years back, covered Europe with
blood and ruin."

DONNA MARIA MARTINEZ, THE BLACK
MALIBRAN,

A lady of colour, with handsome regular feature.,
whose hair is smooth, black, and glossy, without
being frisly, and of graceful form, will make her
debiit at her Majesty's Theatre, in a divertissement
written expressly for her, next Tuesday. She will
sing several Cuban and Spanish airs, and will accom-
pany herself on the guitar. Madame Maria Mar-
tinez, called in Spain and Paris " The Black Mali-
bran," was born at the ilavannah of free parents,
who were in comfortable ciecumstances. She
was taken to Seville when very young, where
she recived an excellent education. She was mar-
ried to a captain of St. Ferdinanci's regiment,
who soon was obliged to leave his native country, and
the young vocalist was left without any other re-
sources than those of her talents. Her reputation
was so well known in Spain that Queen Christina
wished to hear her. Madame Maria Martinez,
therefore, arrived at Madrid, pleased very much at
Court, and particularly the Queen Mother, who
placed her in the royal conservatoire under Valdernosa,
the most able professor of singing in Spain. Having
obtained leave of absence for six months, she visited
Paris, where her talent was acknowledged and ap-
plauded. She arrived in London on Monday, and
Mr. Belle, on bearing her, was so pleased with her
talents that she was engaged immediately.

General BEDEAU having refused to be brought
forward as a candidate for the Presidency of the Na-
tional Assembly, there is no longer any doubt of the
reelection of M. Dorm.

The Ministerial measure on the press meets with
such universal reprobation that it will, it is said, be
withdrawn.

The levy of seamen had been interrupted, by order
of the Minister of Marine. The Minister has now
given orders to con:inue it in all the ports. The ship-
owners and fishermen, whom the levy injures consi-
derably, have sent delegates to Paris to represent to
the Minister how injurious the late order is to com-
merce.
