SURREY THEATRE.
The Infant Sappho commenced an engagement for
five performances at this theatre last evening. At the
conclusion of the first piece, The Minute Gun at Sea,
there was a concert in which the Sappho appeared, sup-
ported by her father (Mr. Vinning) and Miss
Amelia Vinning. We have so frequently had occasion
to express our admiration of the performances of this
wonderful child, and so flattering have been the recorded
opinions of the first musicians of the day as to her
transcendent abilities, that to dilate upon her merits is
now become a work of supererogation. She -pos-
sesses the god-like gift, genius—but not untutored
genius. She is a rule unto herself, and if she does not
intuitively comprehend, she is at all events intuitively
guided by the most exact and abstruse rules of musical
science. She thoroughly understands harmony, and is
a clever contrapuntist. Like Mozart, while yet a child
in years, she is a giant in musical science. Her per-
formance was followed by the farce of The Hole in the
Wall, after which we had the grand spectacle of The
Forty Thieves, which has been revived at this theatre in
all its pristine splendour. The house was crowded in
every part.

ROME.
" History informs us, that
so long as the Roman empire,
a pattern of the best of Go-
vernments, held up its glory
and greatness, it maintained,
with little or no change, the
standard measurean purity
of the coin. after the
loose times of Commodus had
led in need and excess, and
so that shift of changing the
standard by enhancing the
coin, the majesty of the empire
fell by degrees. Vospissius
says, 'The steps by which the
State descended were visible
most by the gradual altera-
tion of the coin ; and there is
no surer sign of consumption
in the State than the raising
of money.' ".—Extract from
a Speech by Sir Robert Cot-
ton on the Raising the No-
minal Value of Coin, in the
Reign of Charles the First. I
This raising of the coin the ancients stigmatised under
the term Puntca fides, which rendered idiomatically into
the English language, may be understood as .11Iunt •

MOROCCO.

" The Government has in-
creased the nominal value of
the current coin. The export
of Spanish coin is again
prohibited, and the strictest
orders are given to all the
officers of the Customs to exe-
cute rigidly: this prohibition,
searching carefully all persons
leaving the country ; conse-
quently money is become
scarce." Extract from a
Letter dated Tangiers, Nov.

A TRANSLATION A VIOLATION OF COPYRIGHT.--
The Royal Court of Rouen has decided, on an appeal from the
inferior tribunal, that the translation of a work into another
language is still a violation of the law of copyright. In the
case before the Court, some French lectures on chemistry had
been translated into Spanish. The publisher of this transla-
tion was sentenced to pay I,ooof. fine, and all the copies were
ordered to be destroyed.
