nEIiTRICALS IN THE UNITED

STATES.

After losing sight of Mr. Braham and his amiable
family for several days, we at last find them on the
26th ult.; he was at Detroit, and gave a concert that
evening at the National Hotel, which was crowded.
The Park Theatre has now been open two nights
at reduced prices, and the experiment succeeds. The
female department, with the exception of Mrs.
Wheatley and Mrs. Vernon, is poor. The male cast
for comedy is very strong—Burton, Browne, Pla-
eide Williams, Fisher, Barry, &c. ; still we miss
ChLiPpendale.
' The Tremont has been newly decorated, and op3ns
text Monday with the following company :—Mr. and
Mrs. Gilbert, Mr. Chapman, Mr. Howard, Mr. John
Green and lady, Mrs. Cramer, Miss Fanny Jones,
Mr. and Mrs. Ayling, Mr. Leman, Mr. Corner as
leader of the orchestra.
Abbott having married Miss Buloid, both of them
seem unable to appear on the stage, for they have
made no engagement anywhere.
z ' -It: is confidently stated that James Wallack is in
"fhis city, or State, and that as soon as he shall have
erfeeted an arrangement with his creditors, he will
attiCir at the Park.
the theatres are closed in New Orleans, and all
tkrar, frh'the South. The St. Charles and American
ato be rebuilt shortly.
,„; inneford is doing pretty well out West, and building a new theatre in Louisville. p
Forest and Miss Clifton, who have been playing
together a long time, with good success, are now
playing a very brilliant and lucrative engagement at
the Chatham, under the auspices of Thorne.
Upon the whole, theatricals may now be said to be looking up a little ; and as Congress has adjourned,
and the Tariff been passed, and the Treaty signed,
we think, with a proper degree of enterprise and pru-
,, dence, some of our managers may make money this
~winter.--Neui York Herald.

If there is a delicate, deformed, or weak-minded '
child in a family, it is generally the favourite with its '
parents. This is a beautiful illustration of nature
taking the part of the most helpless.
INTIMIDATION.—A. solicitor of Devonport has ad.
dressed a letter to the officers of the dockyard there to
caution them that evidence having been furnished
that many of the officers of the dock-yard have can-
vassed voters in the dock-yard, in order to influence '
their votes at the ensuing election of Councillors, that
he will use every legitimate means to carry into effect '
the Admiralty order that was issued expressly to pre- '
vent this sort of intimidation, which seems, of course, '
to be chiefly exercised against the Liberal voters.
Mignonette, Reseda Odorata, now naturalized to '
our climate, is a native of. Barbary. Many years
since, it was introduced to the south of France, where
it Was welcomed by the name of mignonette—little
darling. This favourite plant, brought to England in
1742, is noticed by Cowper in his " Task"
---" The sashes fronted with a range
Of orange, myrtle, or the fragrant weed,
The Frenchman's chilling."
Sir Walter Scott was in error when he introduced it
into his novel, " The Fortunes of Nigel," as decorat-
ug the London windows during the reign of James I.
We have obtained the following particulars of the
deplorable accident from the ferocity of a dog, of
which, on Wednesday, we gave only a short notice.
`The animal, which is of the mountain breed, belonged
to Mlle. Annais Auber, of the Theatre Francais, who
• kept it to guard her house at Louveciennes, between
Versailles and St. Germain. He was always chained
Up during the day, and was under the charge of a
female servant, who, acting under advice, had been
accustomed from time to time, during the late extreme
heats, to throw pails of cold water over him, in order
to keep him in health. This so enraged the animal
against her, that, on Sunday last, having got loose,
and finding his well intentioned tormentor alone at a
remote part of the grounds, he sprang upon her, pulled
her down, and tore her so dreadfully in the neck and
head, that she expired before any assistance could
reach her. Mlle. Annais immediately ordered the
dog to be killed, and was so much affected by the
catastrophe, that she has been seriously indisposed
ever since:
noax.—The wags of the town have been highly
amused during the last few days by a very capital
"ax' played upon the worthy host of one of our prin-
cipal inns (Yarmouth). At the time the Queen
Passed through the roads, mine host and his fair part-
ner displayed their loyalty by taking a boat and going
off to greet her Majesty on her way towards the me-
tropolis. A few days after a letter was received,
bearisig the Royal arms in the seal, and purport-
ing to he a communication from the Secretary of
State for the Home department, expressive of the gra-
tification her Majesty felt at this display of the loyalty
of this worthy pair, and offering, as a peculiar mark
of Royal favour, to confer the honour of knighthood
up" mine. host. The letter being read to his
lady she was in extacies at this mark of Royal
condescension, at the same time expressing her opinion
that so dignified a title was rather too much for her
spouse to accept, when a friend suggested that a much
better plan might be adopted by bargaining with
some gentleman in the county who might be desirous
°f obtaining such an honour, and selling to him the
title, which her friend assured her the Queen would
transfer to the favoured individual she might he
Pleased to nominate. 3,0001. was the sum named, and
the lady thought so substantial a benefit being more
seful to people in business than a title without a for-
tioltw, was about to commission the gentleman forthwith
c,,lntnence a treaty for the sale, when a junior mem-
r"f the family expressed her indignation of the
the
about to be made of the Royal savour, and thought
,J title should be accepted miller than so shameful a
,eBhould be made of it. Whether this eloquent ap-
rea',,of the young lady had its full influence or not
we ere by no means prepared to say. Suffice it that
on Saturday the worthy host was congratulated in
the market by a number of his friends, who, without
'waiting for the Royal letters patent, greeted him by
the title peculiar to the rank of knighthood. Whether
it is the intention of the party to apply to receive the
honour we have not yet heard.--Ipswich .Express.
