ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

La Donna del Lago •was repeated on Saturday night.
There was no diminution of that artistic excellence and
scenic splendour which won for this opera the admiration of
the public on its reproduction. Urisi displayed all
the beauties of her wonderful vocalisation, and
enraptured the audience by her fascinating com-
bination of histrionic and musical power. To
bestow praise upon ➢lario is superfluous. It is "paint-
ing the hly—giloing refined gold." In his instance a triple
encore is a natural incident, which it seems scarcely necessary
to note. 241n11e. Meric makes nightly and deserved advances
in the public favour, and the rest of the characters fully sus-
tained the justice of our previous observations. To the two
acts of Masaniello, which were again added to the evening's
entertainments, the same Fremaiks will apply. The house
was densely crowded in every part.

ATTEMPTED MURDER.

A very painful sensation prevailed during the whole
of yesterday in the immediate vicinity of Drury-lane, in
consequence of a report that Donovan, the pugilist, had
murdered his wife, by throwing her out of the window.
From careful inquiries made the reporter ascertained
that the unfortunate woman had been thrown out of tt,e
window, and the injuries sbe thereby received prevent
the possibility of her recovery.
Donovan, who follows the trade of a blacksmith when
not in training for pugilistic encounters, resides at
No. 17, Short's-gardens, Drury-lane, and on Saturday
night was drinking with his wife at a public-house in the
neighbourhood. They both left when the house closed
at twelve o'clock, and they arrived at their home shortly
afterwards. Nothing was seen or heard of either of
them until about half-past one o'clock, when some of the
lodgers heard a screaming and a cry of " Police" pro-
ceeding from Donovan's room. The occupier of the
next house, who was sitting up, mad who heard the
alarm, ran into Drury-!ane to procure assistance. Ile
met a policeman, to whom he said he was afraid a mur-
der was being committed in the next house to his own.
The officer without a moment's delay ran into Donovan's
house, when ho found the various lodgers in the back
yard and the almost lifeless body of the wife.
Several other officers having arrived, they procured a
stretcher, on which the poor creature was placed, and
removed to King's College Hospital. Polite-constable
Gatib then went up stairs to Donovan's room, on the
second floor, where he found the mars leaning against the
wall. A little girl, who was in the room crying, informed
the constable Plat her father had thrown her mother out
of window. The officer thereupon told Donovan that
he must consider himself in custody for the murder of his
wife. Donovan replied, " Oh, well, I will go with you,
but she did it herself; she threw, herself out of window."
The man was then removed to Bow-street police station,

IN R ---.

Mr. EnA:trwELL applied for a rule calling upon an at-
torney to 'answer the matters disclosed in the affidavit.
The affidavit was made by a lieutenant in the Royal
Engineers, and stated that some time ago he was arrested
at the suit of a creditor by the sheriff of Devonshire,
and being then in difficalties, ho retained the attorney
in question to negctiate a settlement of his affairs. He
supplied him with money to go to Gravesend and see
the deponent's father, a retired colonel in the Royal
Engineers, residing at Gravesend, to obtain funds to dis-
charge the claims of the detaining creditor. This the
attorney did, and he received 301. from the deponent's
fwher, but he had neglected to apply it to the purpose
for which it was handed to him, or to devote it to the
&penult's use.—Rule granted.

MARLBRO'-STREET=(THIS DAY.)

IMPUDENT ROBBERY.—Duncan Mackenzie,- a servant out
of place, was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with
stealing from a bed-room in the Grapes Tavern, Queen-
street, May-fair, four sovereigns and a half, and other moneys,
belonging to Mr. Redmond Bryant.
It appeared from the evidence that on Thursday last the
prisoner went to the above house and asked for a customer
named Molly. On being told that that, person was not in
the way, he (prisoner) said he was sorry he was out, as he
wanted particularly to see him. The prisoner then requested
to be allowed to go upstairs in order to wash himself, which
request the barmaid, believing the prisoner to be really a
friend of Mr. Hoor;fly's, granted. After being upstairs about
half an hour, the prisoner descended, and having, pro-
cured change for a half-sovereign, gave the waiter
and the chambermaid sixpence each, and then
left- the house. (in the same evening Mr. Hoocifly
called at the Grapes, when be was informed-that the prisoner
had been there making inquiries after him, and in conse-
quence of Mr. Hoody's denying all knowledge of the prisoner
the puspiciwia of the, landlord were _exeited! and on going
into the bed-ropm latell occupied by the pris.oner, he found
that a desk belonging to one of his lodgers had been forced
open. In another room naoining the one occupied by the
prisoner he found that Some deers had been broken open,
and the contents scattered about-11,e room. On the return
of two of the gentlemen who lodged in those bed-rooms they
were informed of the above circumstances, and one of them,
Mr. Redmond Bryant, on examining his desk, found that
tour and a half sovereigns, a half guinea, and other moneys,
had been abstracted therefrom. The other gentleman also
niissed a pair of razerk,.whick the prriolart subsequently.
offered for sale t fierVailt in Park-lane. Nothing more was
seen of the prisoner till Saturday night.
Evidence having been offered corroborative of the above
the prisoner, who denied the charge, was remanded till Thurs-
day next.

LONDON, MONDAY, APRIL 29, 1850.

A question of the deepest and most vital import-
ance to the tranquillity and security of the Anglo-
Indian Empire will to-morrow evening be brought
under the consideration of the British Senate. Sir
EDWARD Corainnoonz has given notice that he will
then move for a " Select Committee to inquire into
the rights of succession of the allied and dependent
Princes of India." Every exertion will unquestion-
ably be made to avoid discussion, and to get rid of
the inconvenient topic by a side wind. The ordinary
ruse of " counting out of the House" will, if possible,
be resorted to, and we would emphatically warn the
chosen representatiies of the people in due time of
the intention, in order that they should attend in
their places on the occasion, and that they
should not, by their culpable negligence and apathy,
permit the august assembly of which they are mem-
bers to be brought into contempt and disrepute by
the success of an expedient so stale and paltry.
It is the noblest characteristic of the British Par-
liament that it is ever ready to attend to the remon-
strances of the opprea and injured, however lowly
and bumble, that every well-founded complaint shall
receive an anxious and attentive consideration. Any
alleged violation of theexisting laws, or any acknow-
ledged deficiency therein, to meet a particular case,
will be fully investigated, and ample justice
done to the aggrieved
.parties, and this, not
only where they have received actual damage, but
where there is reasonable cause to suppose
that such may be inflicted at any future
Period. The love of justice is deeply im-
planted in English hearts, and nothing will more
powerfully excite the public indignation than any
indifference to that sacred principle. If " might
could prevail over right " on any occasion, or under
"y cinumstigiceti the constitutional rights And Tiber"

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, April 27.
(Before Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS.)

Gustavus Vaughan Brooke applied, under the Protec-
tion Act, on his interim order.
He was opposed by Messrs. Nathan, the theatrical
dress vendors, and a butcher named Bloomfield. The
debts amounted t-, 5301., of which nearly 2001. were
owing to Messrs. Nathan for the hire of dresses.
Mr. Brooke attributed his insolvency to having been
suddenly thrown out of an engagement with Mr. Watts
to perform at the Olympic Theatre. He was to have
received 600/, but after performing five weeks the
theatre was closed. He was for a long time out of em-
ployment, but was now expecting another engagem‘nt.
He had no theatrical dresses or other property to give up.
He was a single man, but had bad great expenses. He
was surprised to find Messrs. Nathan's debt so large; he
considered it exorbitant, and that .50/. would have been
sufficient for the dresses he had hired. He did not sup-
pose that they could have been worth more than 40/, as
they were only made up for show. His engagement at
the Olympic Theatre this year began on the 4th of
February, and the theatre was closed in five weeks
afterwards.

Mr. Commissioner PUILLIPS observed that it was a
matter of public notoriety howit closed, as appeared
from the police reports.
Mr. SARGOOD said the subject referred to by the
Learned Commissioner was a recent affair. The
closing of the theatre had nothing to do with the Globe
office.

Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS—Why did it close so
suddenly?
The insolvent said Mr. Watts was taken up on acharge
of embezzlement.

Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS—That is what I said.
We can't shut our eyes to what is going on.
The insolvent, referring to the subject respecting Mr.
Watts, sate, " I had nothing to do with it."
Mr. Commissioner PHILLIPS—Of course not, but was
not the theatre closed in consequence of his arrest on a
charge of Embezzlement? Insolvent—lt was, Sir.
His examination was continued, and he stated that he
had acted at the theatre for four weeks. The rate of
salary by the contract was 251. a week. Mr. Watts had
paid him 1231., and a sum of 60/. on account of the con-
tract. Ile had got money in advance, upwards of 1001,
to pay Mr. Nathan's first action. Ho hail every reason
to believe that the contract with Mr. Watts was at an
end. He did not take advantage of it and engage him-
self elsewhere. At present he was out of an Engage-
ment. He bad had no engagement since the closing of the
theatre until the last fortnight. He had an engagement
at The Marylebone Theatre ,on certain terms—to share
after the expenses. He entered into the engagement

days past the ring have been playing at shuttlecock

time at 18 and 20 to 1, then up to 10, then back again to 16,
and so on. All I have to say respecting him is, take care
you don't burn your fingers at this caprioski; for, mark my
words, should he go to the post on the Derby day well and
fit, there are but few horses, bar Bolingbroke, who can come
anywhere near him for stride and pace; he and Bolingbroke
look very much like second editions of the Dutchman.

GERMANY.

Committees of the two Chambers of the German
Parliament of Erfurt met on the 23d, to arrange the
dissension which had arisen between the Chambers
with respect to the vote on the budget—the People's
Chamber, it will be remembered, having inserted
clauses in the constitution reserving that right en-
tirely to itself. The Committees decided that the
budget when voted by the People's Chamber should
be transmitted to the Chamber of States, which
should have the power to make observations on and
modifications of it, but not to change the total amount.
It was also decided that, in the event of the two
Chambers not la,iing able to agree on the same vote,
the vote of the Poeple's Cumber should prevail.
Tne Vienna Gazette announces officially the re-
sumption of diplomatic relations between Austria and
the Porte. It then gives a summary of the negotia-
tions on the question of the refugees. In demand-
ing that Kossuth and hi. fellows should be given
up, Austria, says the Gazette, relied on the treaty
of Belgrade, but the Sultan having addressed
representations to the Emperors of Austria and
Russia, it was agreed, in conformity with the Sul-
tan's offers, that the refugees should be removed to a
part of Turkey, in which they could undertake
nothing either against Austria or Russia. Then
arose the question, says the Gazette, as to the dura-
tion of the detention. Austria proposed five years ;
this was not accepted ; whereupon Austria declared
that it would not admit any limitation as to time, but
would interpret the treaties rigorously and literally.
This declaration, the Gazette adds, drew from the
Porte a note, " written in a spirit satisfactory to the
Imperial Government."

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Linda di Clianzouni was performed on Saturday for the
purpose of introducing a new contralto, Mdlle. Ida
Bertrand, in the character of Pierotto. Mdlle. Ida
Bertrand in figure, in features, in voice, and in
manner bears a striking resemblance to Brambilla
in her best days, with this advantage, that her
intonation is pure and perfect, and has none of
that uncertainty which was the great defect of
the voice of Brambilla. She acts, too, with more
spirit and energy than did Brambilla, while at the same time
she is most graceful. She sung the air " Per sua Madre"
with great expression and feeling, and achieved a
perfect triumph in the duet with Madame Son-
tag in the second act, "Alloy ch' io passo," which
was rapturously encored. She was called on at the
conclusion of the second act, and again the end of the opera.
Of the Linda of Madame Sontag it is impossible to
speak in terms of too high eulogy. As Voltaire
said of Racine, so we are compelled to say
of Madame Sontag, "Perfect, perfect." Whether we regard
her Linda as a piece of vocalization witness the
beautiful " Luce di quest anima," and the duets with
Carlo and with Pierctto ; or as a histrionic performance—
witness the scene in which she leaves her home in the first
act—witness the scene with her father at the conclusion cf
the second act—it is " perfect." Signor Baucardi appeared as
Carlo, and sung and acted delightfully. He gave the duet "Da
quel di" with great taste, and was deservedly encored in the ",Se
tanto in ira." His singing is full of delicate and pathetic ex-
pression. We perceive hti is to appear on Thursday as Elvino,
in the Sonaambuia, a part in which we expect he will be very
great. Coletti was magnificent as Antonio, Beletti very good
as the Prefetto, and F. Lablache an admirable Marquis.
His c,rnic humour is of the richest quality.
The Ti uandaise was dat ced between the acts of the opera,
and Les .Jletanzorphoses concluded the performances. The
house was crowded to suffocation in every part; even stand-
ing room was at a premium in pit and gallery, and every
stall was occupied.
ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

La Donna del Lago was repeated on Saturday night.
There was no diminution of that artistic excellence and
scenic splendour which won for this opera the admiration of
the public on its reproduction. Grisi displayed all
the beauties of her wonderful vocalisation, and
enraptured the audience by her fascinating com-
bination of histrionic and musical power. To
bestow praise upon Mario is superfluous. It is "paint-
ing the lily—gilaing refined gold." In his instance a triple
encore is a natural incident, which it seems scarcely necessary
to note. Mdlle. Meric makes nightly and deserved advances
in the public favour, and the rest of the characters fully sus-
tained the justice of our previous observations. To the two
acts of Musaniello, which were again added to the evening'....
entertainments, the same o'remaiks will apply. The house
was densely crowded in every part.

IN RE==...

Mr. BRAMWELL applied for a rul,. calling upon an at-
torney- to answer the matters disc!. sed in the affi lavit.
The affidavit was made by a lieutenant in the Royal
Engineers, and stated :hat Nome time ego he was arrested
at the suit of a creditor by the sheriff of Devon
and being then in diffieultiei, he retained the attorney
in question to nevtilte a settlement of his affairs. lie
supplied him w;tn money to go to Gravesend and see
the deponent's lather, a retired colonel in the Royal
Engineers, residing at Gravesend, to obtain funds to dis-
el arge the claims 4 the detaining creditor. This the
rney did, and he received 301. from the deponent's
'a-ht r, but he had neglec e 3 to apply it to the purpose
f which it witi hinded to him, or to devote it to the
cl. pyrient's use.— Rule grant- d.

-sTuEET.7-(TFIISDAY.)

ImruDENT IlonnEux.—Duncan Mackenzie, a servant out
of place, was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with
stealing from a bed-room in the Grapes Tavern, Queen-
street, May-fair, four sovereigns and a half, and other moneys,
belonging to Mr. Redmond Bryant.
It appeared from the evidence that on Thursday last the
prisoner went to the above h, use and asked fur a customer
named Houflv. On being told that that person was rot in
the way, he .(
prisoner) said he was sorry he was out, as he
wanted particularly to see him. The prisoner then requested
to ha allowed to go upstairs in order to wash himself, which
request the barmaid, believing the prisoner to be really a
friend of Mr. 1100fly's, granted. After being upstairs about
half an hour, the prisoner descended, and having pro-
cured change for a half-sovereign, gave the waiter
and the chambermaid sixpence each, and then
left the house. On the same evening Mr. Hooofly
called at the Grapes, when he was informed that the prisoner
had been there making inquiries after him, and in conse-
quence of Mr. Iloofly's denying all knowledge of the prisoner
the suspicions of the landlord were excited, and on going
into the bed-room latel' occupied by the prisoner, he found
that a desk belonging to one of his lodgers had been forced
open. In another room adjoining the one occupied by the
prisoner he found that some drawers had been broken open,
and the contents scattered about the room. On the return
of two of the gentlemen who lodged in those bed-rooms they
were informed of the above circumstances, and one of them,
Mr. Redmond Bryant, on examining his desk, found that
four and a half sovereigns, a half guinea, and other moneys,
had been abstracted therefrom. The other gentleman also
missed a pair of razors, which the prisoner subsequently
offered for sale to a servant in Park-lane. Nothing more was
seen of the prisoner till Saturday night.
Evidence having been offered corroborative of the above
the prisoner, who denied the charge, was remanded till Thurs-
day next.
