THE GERMAN OPERA, COVENT-GARDEN.—SO de-
lighted was her Majesty with the performance of the
Huguenots at this house on Monday evening, that she has
been graciously pleased to command a repetition of it
to-morrow evening, when, accompanied by her illustrious
Consort and the King and Queen of the Belgians, her
Majesty will again honour the German Opera with her
presence. Several Foreign Ambassadors, and such of the
Nobility as are in attendance upon the Court, will b e pre-
sent, so that the house will be crowded with the highest
rank and fashion in the land. The German company is
richly deserving of the most extensive public support,
and we trust that it will receive it. Mr. Schloss's ex-
cellent translation of the Huguenots will enable the
English play-goer to enjoy all the beauties of the Opera.
and appreciate the richness of the performance without
any acquaintance with the German language.

THE MARCHIONESS OF WATERFORD.—We are happy
to announce that the interesting and accomplished Mar-
chioness of Waterford is pronounced out of danger. We

BILL FOR THE BETTER REGULATION OF MUNI-
CIPAL CORroRATIONs IN ENGLAND AND WALES.—This Bill
has for its purpose the explanation and amendment of an Act of
the sth and 6th years of William the Fourth, in which a doubt-
ful signification attached to the words " Contract" and
Office or place of profit," in the said enactment, which pre.
eluded Councillors, Aldermen, or Municipal Commissioners,
holding any such in the gift or disposal of their particu-
lar Borough council. The new enactment makes the
word " Contract " not to extend to leases, sales or purchases
of 12nds, tenements, or hereditaments, or any agreements ap-
pertaining to such, or for the loan of money, or to any security
for the payment of money only. Clause B also enacts that
hereafter the office of sheriff shall not be deemed an office of
profit. '1 he body of the Bill is occupied with regulative
clauses for the termination and arrangement of actions, and
the payment of costs connected with them, that may have been
begun prior to the passing of the Act.
A letter from Copenhagen states that the Cham-
bers are to be consulted as to whether it is necessary to allow
the prohibition of foreign sugar to exist. In the duchies the
suppression of the prohibition has produced the happiest effects,
the price being considerably reduced.
