BELOOCHISTAN

I am happy to inform you, that Captain Brown has been
enabled to make his retreat from the perilous position at
Kahun, where he was so long cooped up, and that he is now
in safety in Shikarpore. The great loss sustained by the
Murrees, or Hill Belooches, in their conflict on the mountain
pass of Surtof, with the force of Major Clibborne, had had
its effect on their subsequent proceedings; for they after-
wards offered no molestation to the fortress of Kabun, and
seemed inclined for peace rather than for a renewal of hosti-
lities. They were accordingly, on Captain Brown's receiv-
ing instructions to use his best endeavours to come to terms
with them for his safe conduct from the place, by no means
difficult to treat with ; and he marched out of Kahun with
his whole detachment, his single gun, arms, and baggage,
escorted by a nephew of the Murree chief and thirty lie-
looches, and without meeting with the slightest molestation
or annoyance. The generosity exhibited by these indepen-
dent mountaineers could not have been-surpassed by the
most liberal action of civilised warfare. Lower Sinde is now
perfectly tranquil.

THE SIKHS.
There have recently been many reports of the treacherous
conducttfrom the
o f this
characterpeople— they)w far true it is impossible to say ;
but, have ever borne, not at all un-
likely to be so. It is allegedtahgt an emissary from the
Lahore government was found

tersges ouf e the
againstm o moun-
taineer,
then -
on his person addressed to the
taineers, and of a tendency to incite themwtiolteilife

oauun(ti of
raising troops, hooudies for this purpose,' to the
fifteen lakbs, being reported to have been intercepted,a
be pursuing an underhand and deceptive system of policy in
Toorkistan.
Rumours that Lord Auckland is about to send a force into
Lahore, to punish them for their treacimrous conduct, have
also been current, and it is probable it may shortly be neces-
sary to take this step. The old king, Kurruk Sing, is said
to be on his death-bed, and the affairs of the state are entirely
carried on by Now Nehal Sing and the chief councillor.
The acceptation of terms by the Nepaulese will, of course,
preclude the necessity of a recourse to hostilities on the part
of the British, unless, indeed, they should endeavour to se-
cede from their compact, which, from their organization of a
force to meet this contingency, appears to be thought altoge-
ther impossible, particularly as one of the articles of agree-
ment binds them to pay certain sums as indemnification for
their outrages, and the expenses which, on their account,
have been incurred by government. It has been, moreover,
for some time suspected that a correspondence has been

LIVER THEATRE.—The two pieces which we announced
as having been produced on Monday last have proved very
attractive during the week. " The Ruby Ring" is the best
drama of the two. The plot turns upon a ring, which gives
warning of danger to the possessor of it. Mrs. Gordon, in
the character of a country girl, played extremely well, and
imparted much interest to the drama. Her rustic gaiety, in
the early part of it, well contrasted with the serious portion
at the close. Mrs. Barton, as the Lady Adeline, played
gracefully and quietly. Mr. Bland was rather too boisterous.
Mr. Marshall, as Merryman, made the " unskilful laugh."
Mr. Barton did the Highwayman in a dashing, off-hand style.
The Chiarini Family continue their amusing feats of dancing
on the tight rope. The Coco dance always excites amusement.
On Monday next a play called " The Cavalier" will be pro-
duced, in which Mr. Elton will make his appearance. The
character assumed by him is that which he originally per-
formed in London with great success. We shall be much
disappointed if Mr. Elton does not find admirers. It is a
question whether he or Chas. Kean bear off the palm in many
first-rate characters. His Richard we prefer to Mr. Kean's,
while his Sir Giles Overreach is decidedly the best. The
incidents of " The. Cavalier" are laid during the time of
Cromwell. There are some scenes of deep interest in it ;
and, if well played, as we expect they will be, we prophecy
" The Cavalier" will run for some time.

RESPECTFULLY assures those who are troubled with
Corns, Bunions, and defective Nails, that her mode of
treatment combines carefulness and skill, and is highly ap-
proved of by gentlemen of the medical profession. It is at-
tended without the least pain, and immediate relief has in-
variably been the result of their operations. During their
ten years residence in Liverpool their practice has extended
to bad Nails, in the very worst of stages, and the worst cases
of Bunions attended by joints out of place ; in some instances,
of many years' standing, perfect cures have been wrought,
enabling the Patients to wear straight and proper shaped
shoes. Testimonials can be produced of those relieved la-
bouring under a gouty affliction of this nature to the happy
enjoyment of ease. Good accommodation for those who
come from a distance. Three days are set apart, from day-
light to dusk, to attend at No. 1, DAULBY-STREET, on Tues-
day, Wednesday, and Thursdays ; the other three days

MEETING OF THE

The second annual meeting of the Whitchurch Protes-

day last. The meeting was numerously and respecta-
bly attended. Lord Kenyon occupied the chair, and
the proceedings were characterised by the greatest
enthusiasm. The noble chairman and the Rev. R. J.
IVP Ghee spoke at considerable length, and with much
eloquence, on this interesting occasion. On Tuesday
next we shall give a full report of the proceedings,
which, we have no doubt, will prove a source of rich
gratification to our Protestant readers in Liverpool.

PUBLIC PARKS IN LIVERPOOL

Last evening an extraordinary general meeting of the
members of the Liverpool Guardian Society was held in the
. .

Lou propriety of memorializing- the Town
favour of public walks or parks, for the recreation of the
habitants. The meeting was very numerously attended.
Mr. GEORGE SUMNER, president of the society, having
taken the chair, after a few appropriate introductory remarks,.
proceeded to say that no doubt could exist in the mind of

places of recreation. Not only were the places he had men-

those which had been once given to them. The great in-
crease of the town had precluded them from the enjoyment
of recreation and amusements in those places. The places
once eligible for the purpose were now built upon. The poor
man must therefore either go down to the pier, or across the
water, at some expense : but even there he must confine
himself to the road, for on one side as well as on the other
he beheld the silent monitor of the owner—" if you come
here you shall be prosecuted as the law directs." It there-
fore became a question of great importance, and one which
for some months had attracted the attention of the Town
Council, namely, the propriety of establishing some place for
the recreation and amusement of the inhabitants. Its hav-
ing been brought before the committee of the Guardian So-
ciety was caused by the present situation of the parks'-com-
mittee of the council. The meeting was aware that the subject
had, some months ago, obtained the attention of the council,
and a committee was appointed for the furtherance of the
object. That committee proceeded to obtain the necessary
information nntil the late municipal election, after which a
part of it was removed, and other members substituted. It
appeared that some members of the committee were very
lukewarm upon the subject, whilst those who were desirous
of carrying it out bad not the power to act. Whilst upon
the one band some thought there would be nothing for them
to do this year, others with different impressions thought they
should be pretty well occupied. Those gentlemen, who were
desirous of carrying the thing out, desired to have the aid

LIVER THEATRE.—The two pieces which we announced
as having been produced on Monday last have proved very
attractive during the week. "The Ruby Ring" is the best
drama of the two. The plot turns upon a ring, which gives
warning of danger to the possessor of it. Mrs. Gordon, in
the character of a country girl, played extremely well, and
imparted much interest to the drama. Her rustic gaiety, in
the early part of it, well contrasted with the serious portion
at the close. Mrs. Barton, as the Lady Adeline, played
gracefully and quietly. Mr. Bland was rather too boisterous.
Mr. Marshall, as Merryman, made the "unskilful laugh."
Mr. Barton did the Highwayman in a dashing, off-hand style.
The Chiarini Family continue their amusing feats of dancing
on the tight rope. The Coco dance always excites amusement.
On Monday next a play called " The Cavalier" will be pro-
duced, in which Mr. Elton will make his appearance. The
character assumed by him is that which he originally per-
formed in London with great success. We shall be much
disappointed if Mr. Elton does not find admirers. It is a
question whether be or Chas. Kean bear off the palm in many
first-rate characters. His Richard we prefer to Mr. Kean's,
while his Sir Giles Overreach is decidedly the best. The
incidents of " The Cavalier" are laid during the time of
Cromwell. There are some scenes of deep interest in it ;
and, if well played, as we expect they will be, we prophecy
" The Cavalier" will run for some time.
