ABANDONMENT OF TII DUBLIN THEATRE.—" Last
week but one of the Winter Season.—Mr. Calcraft regrets
exceedingly that the total desertion of the theatre by all classes
of the public, obliges him to close the winter season at a
much earlier period than usual, after sustaining a heavy loss
during a long series of many weeks, and by which a large
emnmunity of industrious and respectablepersons are curtailed
of their principal means of dependence. It is manifest that
no resources, however great, and no energy, however perse-
vering, can support a large public establishment without the
assistance of the public. Mr. Calcraft respectfully appeals to
the good tas'e and feeling of the citizens of Dublin not to
suffer their national theatre to be extinguished, at a time whets
the city appears to be crowded with the rank and wealth of
the land, when a very moderate share of patronage would
enable it to combat successfully with all difficulties, and when
there are engagements formed, involving great responsibilities
on the part of the manager, and comprising the most brilliant
talent in all departments of the drama, with every prospect of
asa isfactoty result." This announcement cannot have come
by surprise on those who have witnessed the gradual with-
drawal of patronage from our national dramatic establishment,
until. with every attraction capable of being produced, the
theatre has latterly become actually abandoned.—Dublin Even-
ng
A short time ago a carabineer, stationed at Chani-
bery, the capital of Savoy, having an animosity against one of his
officers, fired at, but missed him. Another officer, hearing the
report, came to inquire the cause, when the carabineer having
reloaded his piece, and, believing it was the first officer re-
turning to arrest him, discharged it again, and killed him in-
stantly. The man was brought to a court-martial, and con-
demned to death. He so deeply regretted his crime, that, by
his will, he left all the property he possessed to the widow and
children of the officer whose life he had involuntarily taken.
A country clergyman, by his dull, monotonous
discourse, set all the congregation asleep, except an iuiot,
who sat with open mouth, listening. The parson enraged,
and thumping the pulpit, exclaimed, " What ! all asleep but
this poor idiot ?" " Aye," quoth the natural, " and if I had
not been a poor idiot, I would have been asleep too."
We read in the Obserrateur Grec :—"A French
officer, Col nil Thouet, who has resided for six years in
Greece, is charged with the erection of a monument in the
church of Napoli di Romania, in honour of the Philhellenists
who fell in Greece. When M. Piscatory passed through
Napoli, last year, the Colonel requested hint to apply to the
French Government for a copy of a painting by a great master,
to be placed near the monument. The French Minister of the
Interior has complied with the request, and ordered a painting
to be made."
LAUNCH OF THE SPITEFUL STEAAI
That fine steam-vessel the Spiteful, built on the Plans of Sir
William Symonds, was launched from Pembroke Royal Dock-
yard on Thursday the 24th ult. The day proving tine, a vast
concourse of spectators assembled to witness the imposing
ceremony, which took place about four o'clock in the afternoon,
amidst the loud and hearty cheers of the gratified company.
She is upwards of a thousand tons burden, and intended for
naval warfare.—Cambrian.
THE FARMERS OF ESSEX AND THE TARIFF.—A
requisition, signed by Lords Rayleigh and Western, with 120
'of the leadin., agriculturists of Essex, has been addressed to
the Sheriff of the County, requesting him to summon a meet-
ing on Tuesday, the 19th of April next, to take into consi-
deration the proposed alterations in the Corn-laws aid tariff
duties. The Ilindford Agricultural and Conservative Club
have already held a meeting, expressing the uselessness of
petitioning Parliament on their grievances, and having confi-
dence in their own Members, impress on them the hardships
that will arise from these changes.
Mr. Willis, the author of "Woman's Love," "Lord
Darnley," and several other favourite pieces, will take a benefit
to-morrow evening at the Victoria Theatre. Three lessees of
London theatres have offered their services—namely, Messrs.
F. Matthews, of the Hay-
Osbahliston, Shepherd, and norther, together with Mr. Ox-
berry, of Covent-garden, and Mrs.
market. This gentleman has afforded much amusement to the
play-going public, and we confidently trust they will show a due
sense of gratitude, by returning the most substantial compli-
ment they can confer—a full house.
