TIIE VICTORIA.

•
The Easter performances at this theatre commenced
with a new domestic drama, entitled The Lucky Horsf-
shoe, or the Lone Chamber and the Silent Hyhway.
The piece, although it contained many striking situations,
was, upon the whole, somewhat exaggerated, improbable,
and inconsistent in its various incidents. The maih
features of the plot are to this effect : Ellen Marchmonf,
(Miss Vincent), has been promised in marriage by her
father Colonel Marchmont (Mr. Griffith), to Clement
Graylingford (Mr. Dale), but the lady's heart is devoted
to another ; she oyes George Framktou (Mr. Seaman),
and his father, after some resistance, consents to her
contracting the marriage of her choice. On the day,
however, appointed for the nuptials, Frankton is in-
vited to the sea-shore by the treachery of Graylingford';
he is then seized upon, and transported to the coast of
France, where he lingers for years. On returning after
a lapse of time, he finds Ellen married to his former
rival. He soon obtains an_ interview with her, at whicll
they are surprised by the husband • a contest then oft
sues, which ends in the fall of Frankton, whd
is shot, and left for dead by bis rival.Eller
is discarded by her husband ; they both, a
well, as Frankton, arrive accidentally 'at th
same inn. Another busy actor in the drama, Rober
Rough (Mr. E. Saville), a farm servant of Grayling
ford is also staying there, and for the purpose of aveng
ing some wrongs he has suffered from his master (we d
not think it necessary 'to detail them), the unamiabl
Mr. Rough strangles Graylingford, and is himself sho
by Ellen in her heroic' attempt to defend the life of he
child against the murderer of her husband. We shoul
not forget to mention -that there is some amusing bye-pla
in the character of Tom Hammer, in which Mr. Gardne
performs very cleverly-the part ofajealous and injured hus
band. Tom Hammer, we must also observe, is the possesso
of the " lucky horse-shoe," which has, however, in realit
very little to do with the piece to which it gives its title,
The acting' was very creditable to the various per-
formers ; and we must make particular mention of Mis 4
Vincent, who personated her character with her usu 4
energy and power. 'The drama was followed by ty
" grand fairy legends ry romance," entitled Altddin
or, the Wonderful Lax ,p. We have only to say of thl
piece that the plot was adopted to the well-known story
and that it was illustrated by sonic gorgeous scenery;
and some clever Iscene-shifting. The house was!
throughout the evening extremely crowded, and thel
audience, considerinKzhe occasion, was unusually orderly!
and attentive.

WEYMOUTH.

John Ploughman, a ♦oter for the petitioners was ob-
jected to on the ground of having personated another
John Ploughman, a saddler. A great deal of
evidence was given to maintain this point. In
the course of the testimony Mr. Vincent, late
joint overseer, acknowledged that there had been a heavy
default in the accounts of him, Mr. Voss, and another
colleague. Each threw the blame of appropriation on
the other, but they all had to indemnify the parish in
goods or money. But witness was convinced that Mr.
Voss was the person who took the money ; and when
Mr. Voss had alleged that witness had pocketed some
of the missing rates as well as another, Mr. Vin-
cent pitched into Mr. Voss with such energy, that he
was soon compelled to run away.—(Laughter.) Another
witness proved that Ploughman admitted that he had no
right to vote, but that after he had dene so, he said it
was a mere election trick. Mr. Pitmann, amongst
others, swore he heard Ploughman say this a fortnight
after the election at the Black Dog.
It appeared the two Ploughmans rushed to the bar
of the booth together, each crying out that he alone
was the Ploughman entitled to vote, but the latter suc-
ceeded in persuading the Deputy that he was•
the right man. Therefore John Ploughman, the
baker, was recorded for the sitting members,
and Mr. Ploughman, the saddler, could only ten-
der his vote for Villiers and Hope. There were
great bustle, uproar, and pressure in and about
the booth at the time. The usual three questions
were put to Ploughman before his vote was taken for
Burnal and Christie. The testimony of Mr. Thomas, the
returning officer, went directly contrary to most of the
foregoing. He who swore he was not a party man, said,
that Ploughman, the saddler, never tendered his
vote, nor any one for him ; bu that the other Ploughman
under consideration, who is a baker, voted out of a good
house in Mary-street. He did not even see Ploughman,
the saddler, at the booth. Some other contradictory evi-
dence was given, and the Committee adjourned at Five
o'clock.

SURREY.

The Easter attraction at. this theatre is a grand
eqUestrian and dramatic spectacle, entitled The Pearl rf
the, Harent, fOunded on the story called the "Khan s
Tale," in Frazer's well-written volume of Eastern fiction,
the " Tales of the Caravanserai." The incidents of the
tale are pretty closely followed in the drama, which is
put together with considerable skill, and preknts many
points of admirable stage effect. The material of the
piece is the love of Leilah, the " Pearl of the Harem "
(Mrs. H. Vining), and Reza Koolee (Mr. H. Hughes)

At Bradford, the merchants are active, and trade
is steady. At Rochdale also business is brisk. At
Halifax and Leeds there has been no alteration.

IVIISCELLANEOUS.

According to statements collected by the police, out
of a total number of 6,884 weavers usually employed
in forty-one mills in the borough of Manchester,
4,873 were at work in the forenoon, and 5,051 in the
afternoon of Saturday. The others are rapidly re-
turning to their looms, and are too few to cause any
annoyance to those employed. At Bolton almost all
the mills use in full operation.

On Friday last, the Epping Agricultural Society
held its anniversary meeting at the Place Inn, Epping.
The stock was not very numerous, but the prizes for
stock, produce, and industry amounted to 1391. Up-
wards of ninety gentlemen, at its conclusion, sat
down to dinner.

The salary of the High Bailiff of Southwark is to
be reduced henceforward to 6101. per annum.
In the course of Friday, twenty-five persons were
received into the Liverpool Hospital, from the injuries
sustained at the fire, three of whom are dead. The
total liabilities of the various insurance offices amount
to 350,000/.

The Woodchester property, composing the princely
estate of the Earl of Ducie in Gloucestershire, is to
be brought to the hammer in the ensuing spring.
It is stated that Parliament will not assemble till
Tuesday the 28th of February, 1843, three weeks
later than usual.

We have heard that our military force in Canada
is to be reduced immediately, and that, should the war
in China continue, several regiments will proceed from
America to the East.
PLYMOUTH CORPORATION.—THE INCOME-TAX.—
The Corporation of Plymouth wilt have to pay Income-
tax on upwards of 6,000 L per ) car, their revenue from
the market, water, c Inventionary rents; &c., amounting
to about that sum. The Income-tax on their other pro-
perty, such as the hotel, &c., which will at first be paid
by the occupier, is exclusive of that amount.—Devouport
Independent.
We have received a letter from Florence, animad-
joke which appeared in 7he London Sun,
and
dtin was uponcopieda into our journal, to the effect that in the
vg
late trial of Suisse, the valet of the Marquis of Hertford,
for embezzlement, the executors had forgotten the old
proverb of Point d'argent, point de Suisse. The pleasan-
try.is by no means first-rate, but. it certainly contains no
national reflection upon the " land of the mountain and
the cream," as our correspondent seems to suppose..
To publish his angry letter upon it would be conferring
a ridiculous importance upon a trifle.— Galignani.

PEREGRINE BUNCE. 3 Vth.

Bentley, London, 1842.
This novel was, we believe, Theodore Hook's last
literary undertaking, and. from the manner in which
he has treated the subject, it is easy to see that it was
one after his own heart. The hero, Peregrine Bunce,
is a smart, bustling, self-assured young fortune-hunter,
who, though in possession of competence, is haunted
by a desire to become the husband of a wealthy wife.
Accordingly, he makes love to a pretty, serious
.country girl ;- but just as he fancies he has made
something like an impression on her gentle heart, he is
roused from his dream of bliss by discovering that the
unsophisticatiad creature has levanted with a may,

REDUCTION OF WAGES.

A reduction of full 25 per cent, has taken place in the wages
of the operatives since 1838. In some departments the reduc-
tion is over 25, in others rather under—the average is 25.

EMPLOYMENT.

Hundreds are at present totally destitute of employment, and
several thousands are working short time. Men who three
years ago were earning 255. per week, are now doing the
work of boys for Bs. or 9s. per week. In 1838 an unem.
played person could scarcely be found. All the mills were
working full time.

THOUGHTS ON THE SENSIBILITY OF THE

IMAGINATION. Simpkin, London, 1842.
The first section of this essay—which, by the way,
is much the best portion of it—is devoted to a con-
sideration of some remarks made by Mr. Moore, in
his Memoirs of Lord Byron, respecting the sensibi-
lities of the imagination as distinguished from those of
the heart. The, author observes that it is questionable
whether such a distinction be rightly drawn, adding,
"instead of thus conceiving a fictitious and "a real
sensibility, both of which are real to those under their
influence, we would rather say, that they who are
most sensitive to pleasure, are of necessity most sen-
sitive to pain." The author then goes on to,illustrate
his position by reference to certain peculiarities in the
characters of Petrarch, Sterne, and Lord Byron, and
evinces no slight acumen in the manner in which he
handles this branch of his subject. His essay, re-
garded as a whole, is an ingenious one, though he
sometimes ventures a little beyond his depth.

STAFFORD ROUSE.—GR AND POLISH FETE.—On
Friday next, the 15th inst., the Duchess of Sutherland has
invited the elite of our aristocracy and the fashionable world,
as well as those who may be charitably disposed, to assemble
beneath the roof of her stately and magnificent mansion, on
the occasion of a fete to be there given for the benefit of the
Polish refugees. Signors Mario and Rubini have kindly;
consented to lend their assistance, and the Stabat Meatecro _
Rossini is to be performed by the full strength of thweGun_
Ger-
man company. The price of tickets has been fixed,in derstand, at two guineas, the same as last year ; but, innot.

quence of the great demand for them on that ,

ECCLESIASTICAL LEASINGS 811.01

Lord J. RUSSELL was understood to ask what was
the intention of the
,Governnient with regard to this Bill?
Sir J. GRAHAM said he was desirous of giving a
satisfactory answer to the Noble. Lord on this question.
It was his (Sir James Graham's) wish that this Bitl
should pass ; .he should wish, however, to proceed wit,'
the Poor-law Bill and when he saw what progress those
measures made, he should be desirous to proceed with
the Ecclesiastical Leanings Bill.

MUNICIPAL. CORBORATIONS' BILL.

Mr. I.E'ADER said he had to make a complaint of
that be considered a very unfair and dishonest act on
the part of some Member of the Government. On
Saturday morning, a very few minutes before
three, the Municipal Corporations Bill was read
a third time and passed. It would be recol-
lected that a few evenings age, when it was moved
that the Bill should be. committed at a late
hour cif the night, he objected to its being committed
then without ftirther discussion, but that he waived his
objection on the understanding that the Bill should not
pass until further discussion had been afforded. He then
stated that material clauses of the Bill had been ex-
punged, and that the Bill WILS altogether different front
what it had been. Ile thought, under these circum-
stances, a gross breach of faith had been committed by
the third• reading of the Bill, and in future whenever
any Government Bill was before the House Ite would
feel justified in offering every obstruction in his power
to its progress. •
Sir R. PEEL said he was not aware- that the Bill had
been read. He was certain there could have been no
intention to take advantage of the Hon. Gentleman.
Sir G. CLERK said the Bill had stood for the third
reading several nights.
In reply to a question from Mr. T. DUNCOMBE,
The CHANCELLOR of the • EXCHEQUER stated
that the Tobacco Regulations Bilk would be postponed
until Friday next.
Mr. HUME wished to know iihut stepg the Right
Hon. Gentleman had taken to supply the public with
silver currency. As a matter of favour he had get 10s.
in silver at the Bank.—(Laughter.) The greatest possi-
ble inconvenience was felt throughout the country. He
wished to know whether any coin had been issued, and if
so, to what-extent.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
could assure the Hon. Gentle.nan that the Mint was at
work upon silver coin, and was supPying the Bank as
test u possible The Bank had issued 240,000/. iu sil-
ver since the Hon. Gentle:llan before alluded to the
subject.

JESTY'S LIFE.

Sir R. PEEL gave notice that he should to-morrow
move for leave to bring in a Bill to provide more effec-
tually for the security of her Majesty's person.
THE TARIFF.

Mr. LABOUCHERE stated, that in consequence of
what had fallen from him on the subject of cement (as
we understood). The Right Hon. Gentleman, the Vice-
President of the Board of Trade, said he would under-
take to remedy the grievance if the effect of the new duty
would be such as he (Mr. Labouchere) had stated.
Mr. GLADSTONE said he had no occasion to modify
the answer which he gave on a former day. In the space
of 24 hours, however, he should be able to answer the
Right Hon. Gentleman with more minuteness.
TOBACCO.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE wished to know whether it was
the intention of the Government to proceed %s hit the
Tobacco Regulations Bill this session ?
Sir R. PEEL said that his Right lion. Friend, the
Chancellor of tho Exchequer had had an interview with
persons concerned in the trade ; and if the Rom.
Gentle-
man waited till he came, his Right lion. Friend would.
no doubt, give him an answer.
CORN LAWS. .

Mr. HUMP presented a petition from the Provost
and Magistrates of Dumfermlin, complaining of the dis-
tress of the country, which they state to have arisen
from the restrictions of trade, and praying for a repeal
of the Corn-laws.

MINES 'AND COLLIERIES BILL.

Mr. STANFIELD wished to ask a question of the
Secretary of the_ Home Department, relative to the Re-
ports on Mines and Collerics. The first Report received
from the Commissioners was dated, Ist •of April, 1842,
and they then stated that they had given a failiful re-
port of the circumstances to which they had been able
to gain access with regard to the employment of women
and children, of the moral training
.of the children they
stated it to be their intention to speak in a future
Report. 1k wished to ask the Right lion. Gentleman
when that Report would.be laid on the table.
Sir JAMES GRAHAM said he had had a communi-
cation •with the Commissioners, and from what took
place he was -lead to believe that two more Reports were
in progress, but he could not say whether they would be
prtnted this Session or not.
FACTORIES BILL. _ .

Mr. STANSFIEII3 wished to know whether any
other report had been received upon the factory ques-
tion, because he understood that evidence had lately bLen
taken which would materially affect the question.
Sir JAMES ,GRAHAM. said that it was usual to
issue only annual Reports, but there were, however, two
quarterly Reports. which were being printed, and which
would be laid before the House as early as possible:

Mr. HINDLEY wished to know if It were the inten-
tion of the Government to propose any alteration in the
Factory Bill ?
Sir JAMES GRAHAM said the Government had no
such intention.

ROMAN CATHOLIC GRIEVANCES.

Mr. T. D 66 he presented a petition the
other day signed by a.great number of Roman Catholics.
He wished to ask the Right Hon. Baronet in connexion
with that petition, whether it was the intention of the
Government to introduce any Bill founded on the sixth
report of the Commissioners of criminal law.
Sir J. GRAHAM said he could not do better in
answer to the question of the Hon. Gentleman opposite,
than refer him to what was stated in the report to
which lie alluded, it was there distinctly stated that the
clauses of the Bill could not be brought under the consi-
deration of Parliament without raising a question which
might lead to inconsiderable inconvenience.
THE RECENT ATTEMPTS UPON HER MA-
London, England, 1842-07-11

DISTRESS OF THE COUNTRY.

Mr. SHARMAN 'Milt 174613135 aid he had to pre-
sent a remonstrance from the inhabitants of Rochdale,
in public meeting assembled, complaining of the distress
of the country, which was to the effect-
1. That the people of the United Kingdom are now suffer-
ing unparalleled distress, as -proved by various Parliamentary
and other documents; .. • .

2. That deaths from destitution, and commission of crime
from absolute want are daily occurring and rapidly increasing,&c ;
3. .That not only are the working classes sunk to the doepest
distress, but the middle classes are rapidly descending to the
same state ' •
4. That during the existence of this condition of the people,
the annual production of wealth from the resources of the em-
pire has increased in a remarkable degree, an anomaly which
can only be accounted for by the monopoly of political power,
the unjust usurpation of authority, and the consequent bad Go-
vernment of the nation ;
That' the-great masrof the teeple•aresnot cepregented in
Parliament; that, therefore, legislation is conducted for the
benefit of a class, and not for the interests of the great body of
the people;
6. That the unenfranchised people have petitioned humbly
and repeatedly without the smallest effect, or even a prospect of
relief ;

7. That 3,500,000 people prayed by petition to be heard at
the bar of your House, but that hearing was denied, and at the
same time their objects cruelly misrepresented;
8. That the people, therefore, have no hopes of relief or re-
dress from a House of Commons constituted as the present ;
9. That the people assembled on this occasion now submit
this last declaration to your Honourable House, deeply de-
ploring the utter disregard by your House of their petitions,
and dreading the consequences to which that disregard may lead;
10. The people row assembled hereby declare that the, will
take such peaceful and legal steps to remedy their condition as
the well being of society, the security of property, and their
extreme sufferings imperatively demand.
(Signed, on behalf of the meeting)
THOMAS LIVESEY, Chairman.
The SPEAKER informed the Hots. Member that the
fmms of the House, as observed hitherto, did not allow
of the presentation of a remonstratice which did not end
with a
, .
prayer,l ho •
" Remonstrance" was accordingly withdrawn.
Ir. T. Dunosog ~preaented a -petititx, froai

Sheffield, complaining of the treatment of Samuel Boul-
tree, and praying for medical investigation.
Mr. JOHN UCONNELL presented ,a petition-against
au increase of the stamp duties in Ireland.
Mr. O'CONNELL presented petitions from different
parts of Ireland, complaining of the management of the

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.

----
BatonTor'',- JULY 10.—On Friday evetiing two boys, about
nine years of age, were unfortunately drowned off Brunswick-
square, while bathingt Several persons were near the spot
at the time, notwithstanding which nearly an hour elapsed
before the bodies were brought on shore, when, of course, life
was quite extinct. The bodies being found in different places,
one iu the parish of Hove, the other in Brighton, led to two
inquests being held. The first was held before Mr. Gell last
evening, at the Brunswick Hotel, on the body of Walter Hoad,
step-son of aman named Goddard, residing in Cavendish-place
North.
Charles Wicks, a boy 12 years of age, deposed, that after
leaving school on Friday afternoon, he accompanied Howl
and another boy, named Martin, to the beach between Bruns-
irk,quare and Mill's-terrace, for the purpose of bathing.
Martin went in first, Hoad followed, and witness went in
last. It was nearly low water, and they could walk on the
sand bank, but the sea was rather rough. Martin, after pro-
Leedieg some distance, got out of his depth, and began to sink.
}load thereupon said he would go and help him, and he was
proceeding towards Martin, when he also got out of his depth.
-Witness then -called to some men who were collecting boul-
ders, and they called to a young man who was bathing to go to
the spot., but by this time both the boys had finally sunk.
Sine fishermen then searched for the bodies in their boats,
but it %%A; three quarters of an hour before Howl's body was
found.
The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death."
The second inquest was held immediately afterwards
the son
Bedford Hotel, on the body of Richard Martin,ho
Brighton policeman, when a similar verdict was returned.

APPROACHING ALLIANCES IN HIGII LIFE.—The
marriage announced between Sir Henry Hervey Bruce,
Baronet, of Down-hill, Londonderry, and Miss Clayton,
daughter of Sir Jackes and .Lady Granville Clayton, will
be ,olemnised in about a fortnight. The Hon. Miss Julia
Leigh, eldest daughtir of Lord and Lady Leigh, of Stbne.
leigh, is understood to be will to a gentleman of large for-
Abbey,d birth, and festivities take place at Stoneleigh
in Warwickshire, 42 40Pour of the auspitious event.

CORN TRADE.

Our Flour Market is without any change. Western Flour
finds purchasers on a small scale at 6 dols. 06ic.
We continue to receive favourable accounts of the crops.
Notwithstanding the injury done to Corn by the late frosts the
aggregate production of Grain will be larger this year than
ever before.

CATTLE MARKET.
Both markets appeared dull and inactive this morning.
'I here was the usual supply offered, namely, about 700 Beeves,
1,30(1 Sheep and Lambs, and 50 Cows and Calves. Nearly
all these were sold at prices current last week. Beeves ranged
from 5 dole. to 7 dols. per cwt., Sheep from 1 dol. 50c. to
4 dole. 50c. ; Lambs from 1 dol. 25c. to 2 dole. 75c. each, and
Cows and Calves from 23 dole. to 38 dels. a head.
FOREIGN MARKETS.
11AVA NNAII, JUNE B.—The article of Brown Sugars is ad-
vancing cocsiderably, owing to several large orders having
reached the market, principally from the north of Europe, and
the increased existing scarcity. Planters in almost every in-
stance rafused selling, except half whites. The crop is now
zscertzineel to be short of that of last year, say about to
I,c, and hollers ,es m now sanguine of realizing higher prices in
the latter part of the season. White Sugars were slack.
For Coffee the demand is good for England, in consequence
el a reduction on duties there, and rates steadily advancing,
I and the stock remaining excessively small.

GROUND SOLD AT ONE GUINEA PER INCH.—
That fart of the street opposite Messrs. Illingworth and Hicks,
booksellers, Wakefield, is extremely narrow compared with the
other parts of the street in the Market-place. Last w^ek, the
shop riceutly occupied by Mr. Alderton, sitnap9 directly op-
posite the above place, .was taken down ; assd wit understand
that the Commissioners of Wakefield streets have agreed to
Turchase, fur eighteen guineas, eighteen inches in width (mea-
:_uring from the angular corner), a the ground on whicli stood
the most prominent corner of the shop above alluded`to. The
wry tiny bit of round thtts purehased,will be a eonsiticra,ble
