PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

The greatest little man in the world—General
Thomas Thumh, jun., from. the United States—made
his dead at th;s theatre last evening.. This bijou of
a General is only 25 inches high in his boots, and
weighs only 1.5 pounds. Ile is 12 years of age, and
has, not increased in size or in weight since he was
seven months old. He 'is perfectly well formed, is
remarkably strong and muscular for his size, and is
very active. The General is really a very wonderful
little fellow,. and his performances are' very astonish-
ing. After giving the audience an account of him-
self and his adventures, the General mounted a cocked
hat, and gave a capital imitation of Napoleon. His
taking snuff was admirable. Then he appeared in a
round tarpauling hat, and danced the sailor's horn-
pipe in very gallant style. His dancing is
very graceful, and when he rushed forward
on his heels the applause .-was rapturous.
lie afterwards gave the Ancient Statues, 'a la Du-
crow. His Cupid with 'the 'tablets, and Cupid
shooting, were elegant and graceful in the extreme,
his diminutive size adding to the vraisemblance of the
representation. His Sampson carrying off the gates
of Gaza, was a most extraordinary representation.
The attitude was perfect, and the spectator for the
moment lost the idea of the diminutive size of the
representative of the strong man so perfect, was the
representation. Ilis concluding poses were the five
positions of Hercules in his coMbat with the Nemean
lion. These poxes were gracefully and most accu-
rately given. He was called for at the conclusion of
the performance, and received with loud applause.
The theatre was exceedingly well attended.. •

STREET-CLEANSING ENGINE.—An engine for
sweeping the streets has been tried for some days in Cheap-
side and Fleet-street, and the result appears to be quite satis-
factory. An extract from the prospectus; published by the
patentee, will,.explain. its properties and its merits; and, as
far as this goes, those who saw its performance yesterday
must admit the. truth of what is asserted The engine is
simply and effectively. constructed ; is enclosed in a case open
only .at the bottom part, of it, to enable the brushes to come
in contact with the street or road, se that neither dust nor dirt
can escape .from it The mud or dirt is discharged into a
receiving truck travelling in front of the engine; the truck
when filled is easily detached and drawn away to the laystall
or shute ; another empty truck is instantly attached to the
engine, which pioceeds on its .work without the delay of
taking. it from the street with the receiver when it requires
to be emptied : thus the engine remains constantly at its work.
This is a distinguished and most important feature of this
engine."

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT'.

• HOUSE OF COMMONS, Feb. 20.
IRELAND—ADJOURNED' DEBATE.
Lord CLAUDE HAMILTON said, that Hon.,Gen-
.
tlemen opposite must be sadly at a loss for arguments
against the Government,' when they were obliged to
speak as the Hon. Gentleman who had just sat down
did, of the elevation of two Right Rev. Prelates to the
Bench. The Hon. Gentleman also seemed tc say, that
being a repealer was sufficient to disqualify a person
from serving on a jury ; but, if the Hon. Gen-
tleman had read the papers, he would see that
that excuse was made by persons who wished not to
serve on juries, but that the Judges had set the matter
right. The object of the prosecutions was not to put
down the agitation for repeal, but to repress the manner
is which it was agitated. There had been much misre-
presentation about the omission of twenty-four names
from the jury list.—(Hear, hear.) It had been said that
upwards of sixty names were omitted, when, in truth,
only twenty-four were, by accident, and that acci-
dent was attributable to a Roman Catholic officer.
Great stress had been laid upon this point of the exclu-
sion of Roman Catholics, but he would give them an ex-
planation of the principal cause why the Catholics were
not more prominent. The more respectable and upper
classes of that persuasion were so disgusted at the avita-
- tors preaching vengeance against the Saxon, instead of
peace and good will to all men, that they were glad to re-
tire into private life. And no one could wonder at this,
after the accusations which had been made, even in this
House, against the twelve honest men, and the calum-
nies which had been heaped upon them by the Hon.
and Learned Sergeant the Member for Cork, who called
them a good Protestant jury, ready to convict, and
ready to immolate their foe---,
Mr. Sergeant MURPHY—No, no; I never used the
word "immolate."

Lord CLAUDE HAMILTON—The Honourable and
Learned Gentleman at all events stated that there was
no justice to be expected from this jury.—(Hear, hear.)
During this debate he had heard much of the readiness
with which the Irish nation would receive a foreign foe,
but he would tell Honourable Gentlemen foreign foes
were not so ready to take advantage of this nation.
He then alluded to the vituperative abuse which Mr.
O'Connell was in the habit of heaping on Louis Phi-
lippe, and to the talk of raising an Irish brigade ;
and then denied that the. Government in Ireland
was wholly one of force and not one of opi-
nion. It would be impossible with such a military
force to hold 8,001,0000 of inhabitants in such sub-
jection. He, therefore, thought it was a most calum-
nious and unwarrantable insult, to charge the whole
nation with being disaffected to the Queen, and desirous of
throwing off her authority, and dismembering the empire.
It had been said that order and peace had prevailed in
Ireland ; there was no doubt that this was owing to the
preaching of the Uonourablo and Learned Member for

JUSTICE TO IRELAND!
At a MEETING held at Cleveland-row, Monday, Feb-
-uary 19, 1844, •
Resolved—
That the conduct of the present Government towards Ireland, in
its general policy, and particularly in connection with the late trial
of Daniel O'Connell and his fellow-traversers, deserves and demands
the most severe reprobation.
That equal laws and equal privileges—freedom of discussion—meet-
ing together to proclaim grievances—agitation by peaceable and legal
means—and fair trial by jury—arc the birthrights of every subject of
the United Kingdom.
That the powers brought to bear against these rights In Ireland,
although directed against Mr. O'Connell, are equally adverse to the
rights of Englishmen.
That, in order to show the sympathy of Englishmen with Irish-
men, and the admiration entertained in this conntry for the constant
and consistent advocate of the rights and privileges of Irishmen
during the last forty years, a public dinner be given to Daniel
O'Connell, Esq., M.P.
That Thomas Slingsby buncombe, Esq., M.P., be requested to
preside on the occasion.

LAW AND POLICE.

'At Lambeth-street Police-court, Thomas Brand and James
Eccles, young men of gentlemanly appearance, were charmed
before Mr. Henry with causing the death of 'Ellen Goodlad,
an unfortunate female 7or 18 years of age, by inducing her to
take a large quantity of gin, on Friday night last, at the Gar-
rick Tavern, in Lemon-street. Both prisoners denied calling
or paying for the liquor, and their solicitor contended that
there was no proof whatever that they had done so, They
were held to bail.

At the Woolwich Police-court, John Hawkesworth and
John Batt, two convicted thieves, were charged with feloni-
ously breaking into the house of Mr. Heard, Woolwich-com-
mon, on the night of the 23d January last, and stealing 111
quaditity of property therefrom ; also a second charge of steal-
ing a quantity of linen, belonging to a Mrs. Ware, laundress,
of Jackson's-lane. They were committed for trial.
Thomas Adams, John Ives, Steven, Richard
Turner, and Samuel Richardson, apprentices, and Joseph
Rowe, an engineer, in the employ of Messrs. Miller and Ra-
venhill, engineers, of Mil wall, were brought before Mr.
Broderip, at the Thames Police Court, on the charge of as-
saulting: Ann Troup, the wife of a man employed as a tool-
maker in the same establishment. It appeared from the
evidence of Mrs. Troup, that her husband had been lately
confined to his bed by illness; and the -workmen and appren-
tices belonging to the factory came to the toneh,mion that he
was skulking, and on the morning of the 14th inst. tile pri-
soners and others brought a truck to the house to fetch him
away. In resisting the prisoners and their companions Mrs.
Troup was violently assaulted. The was that the
complainant's husband was a skulker, negleettug his work
and his family, and that it was the custom of the trade to
pull such men up. The defendants, with the exception of
Ives, were held to bail.

• In the Court of Exchequer an action was brought by a
cab proprietor, named Colley, to recover in damages the sum
of 351., for injuries to a horse and cab, occasioned by the
carelessness of the defendant. It appeared that the defendant
under a contract with the Commissioners of Sewers-had made
an excavation at Charing-cross, opposite to Nerthumbertand
House, on the 27th of October last. Next morning, at half-
past three, plaintiff's horse and cab approached from St.
Martin's-lane, broke through the temporary barriers into the
excavation, and thereby so injured the horse for further ser-
vice, as to render his destruction matter of necessity.. Several
witnesses proved that the barriers were quite sufficient, but
the jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 351.

judge from the report, Mr. HUME acquiesced.

-In answer to a question from Mr. HUME, the
CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the Post-
office authorities were in communication with those
of the United States, for the purpose of adopting re-
eiprocal Post-office regulations between the two
countries.

.Mr. HAWES resumed the adjourned debate on the
state of Ireland. His speech very properly was
almost entirely directed to the Established Church of
Ireland. To that he attributed most of her grievances.
The' No Popery" cry could not now be raised. The
Protestant Dissenters had formerly been opposed to
the Catholics, because the Catholics were opposed to
civil liberty. Now the case was different. The
Catholics supported the principle of civil liberty, and
they would have the Dissenters with them. He added,
if the payment of the Catholic priesthood should
be proposed as part of a great plan for
tranquillising Ireland, if it were joined with a mea-
sure for the extension of the franchise, then he would
sacrifice his pre-conceived opinions, and support such
a measure. All the old evils of Ireland were sure to

find fresh nourishment, to receive permanency and
strength, from the maintenance of the Irish Established
Church. The contest was between religious liberty
and religious intolerance, and he had no fear as to
the result; but, in the meantime, the nation was
weakened by these unseemly struggles, and the
enemies of this great country were looking on with
hope, when they saw England weakened by the
misgovernment of Ireland.
Lord CLitvDE HAMILTON followed, and made a
characteristic Tory speech about the trial of the tra-
versers, Father Manizw, and the peaceable state of
Ulster compared with Tipperary.

The King and Queen of the French gave a grand ball on
Saturday night, at the Tuileries. Nearly 4,000 persons were
present. After receiving the diplomatic body in the Salle du
Trbne, their Majesties entered the Salle de Marechaux at
about nine o'clock, and dancing commenced immediately.
The King retired to his cabinet at ten, to write and transact
business, but returned at twelve, and took his seat by the
side of the Queen. At one o'clock, their Majesties, followed
by the foreign Ambassadors, proceeded to the Salle de Spec-
tacle, where covers had been laid for supper for four hundred
persons. The scene was here exceedingly splendid, from the
immense number of wax lights burning, and the elegance of
the ladies' dresses. The King and Duke de Nemours re-
mained standing at the entrance whilst the ladies were at
supper. The party did not break up till four in the morning.
Lieutenant-General Pajol, in leaving the ball, fell, frac-
tured his left thigh, and received other injuries. He was im-
mediately conveyed home, and as soon as the King heard of
the accident, he sent his own surgeons to attend him.
The Duke de Montpensier arrived at MarseiHes on Thurs-
day morning, and was to embark in the evening, for Algiers.
A Toulon letter of the 14th states, that the brig-of-war
Palinure has received orders to proceed to Alicant, and that
some other vessels-of-war are to hold themselves in readiness
to sail for the of Spain. •
The question of the execution of the great lines of rail-
road has been provisionally resolved, by the Govennnent,
in favour of the mixed system estaNished by the law of the
11th June, 1842. Consequently, a Bill will speedily be pre-
sented to the Chamber of Deputies.
The Journal de Manheim states from Constantinople, Jan.
24, that the differences between the Porte and Perna have
been settled by the influence of the English and .Russian
Commissioners.

A letter from Vienna, in the Augsburg Ciazette, states that
a notice, signed by the President of the Aulic Chamber, was
posted up at the I;ourse on the 9th inst., expressly prohibit-
ing all transactions in public stock or -shares that are not
quoted in the official list—in fact, that have not received the
sanction of the Government. The letter states that the ex-
tent of gambling in Leghorn railroad shares bas rendered
this order necessary.

" 1. That from the Printed Papers recently laid before the Proprie-
tors on the subject of Sinde, it is the opinion of this Court that the
proceedings of the Government of India which ended in the dethrone-
ment, exile, and imprisonment of the Ameers, and the seizure of tin it
country and private property, were uncalled for, impolitic, and unjust.
" 2. That this Court does therefore most earnestly recommend to
the Court of Directors the immediate adoption of such steps, by repre-
sentation to her Majesty's Government, or otherwise, as may cause all
practicable reparation to be made for the injustice already committed,
and enforce the abandonment of a line of policy inconsistent with
good faith, and subversive of the interests of the British rule in India.
