Balance
Among the capitalists who have joined in the Conven-
tion with the Colonization Company, are, as we hear,
M. Klei (?), Consul-General of Great Britain at Gua-
temala, the house of Mills and Co. of London, and a
banker of Brussels. We do not know whether the
gentleman acts for his own account or for a foreign
house, and therofore do not give his name. We mention
this in detail, because we are informed that since yester-
day endeavours are still made to raise doubts respecting
the serious nature of this operation.—Brussels Papers,
December 2. .

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

One of Planche's clever adaptations from the
French was produced here last evening, under the
title of Somebody Else. The scene is laid in the
neighbourhood of Hamburgh, where we find an
honest wheelwright, Hans Moritz (Mr. C. Mathews),
has been left in charge of Louise (Miss Lee) by her
brother, Moritz's bosom friend, Ernest Waldburg
(Mr. Howe), who has gone to America to better his
fortunes. As might have been expected, Moritz and
Louise fall in love with each other, but neither told
their love. Louise, through maiden modesty, and
Moritz, because he thinks it would be a betrayal of
the trust reposed in him to make love to Louise, and
in order to avoid the possibility of his being tempted
to make love to her, he actually engages himself to
his wild rattling cousin, Minnie (Madame Vestris).
He is not aware of the strength of his passion until
his jealousy is excited by the attentions of a
nondescript sort of German dandy, Herr Flit-
terman (capitally acted by Brindal), whom
he threatens with condign punishment if he
dares to continue his attentions to the girl. At this
juncture letters are received from Ernest, announc-
ing his approaching return ; and in his letter to
Louise he tells her that he brings with him her fu-
ture husband. Louise is in agony. She makes a con-
fident of Minnie, telling her that she loves another,
but not that that other is Moritz, and Minnie readily
consents to pass off to Ernest as Louise, whom he
'has not seen since she was a child. Ernest sees her,
and is delighted ; Moritz is lost in astonishment at
her excessive impudence, but in every attempt of his
to explain to Ernest the real state of affairs, she turns
the tables upon him by some clever ruse. Herr Flit-
terman arrives, and is unceremoniously rejected by
both ladies. His arrival, however, brings about an
explanation ; the betrothed each love somebody else,
and Minnie accepts the hand of Ernest, while Moritz
takes that of Louise, protesting all the while, that al-
though he has long loved her dearly, he has never told
her so. The piece is admirably acted through-
out, and Madame Vestris sings a very lively
vixenish song, to a pretty quaint air, as
she alone can sing such songs. It was
encored as a matter of course. Madame Vestris and
Charles Mathews were called for at the fall of the
curtain, and the latter announced the piece for repeti-
tion every evening amidst loud applause. This
amusing piece was preceded by Old Heads and
Young Hearts, and followed by Young England. The
house was very well attended.
