THEATRE noym

Mr. Power on His Last LeYS and it' ether pieces, 1:; Vert
funny and very attractive. lie has appeared in solar ether:4
of his old and favourite parts, such as Pat Pcsoney, Gerald
Pepper, and Dr. O'Toole.
Much as we admire Power's acting, it is much.on this side
of idolatry. He has lent himself more than ever to pander-
ing to the low and depraved tastes of the public, instead of
making a determined stand against them, as if favourites do
not do, who can and who should do so ? Allusion is here
made to sundry obscenities in expression and acting. These
obscenities either are in the licensed copies of the pieces, or
they are not. They should not be suffered by the public,
whose voice is superior and ulterior to the ex officio perusal
of any delegate of the Lord Chamberlain. Some good people
may affect not to comprehend the meaning of au acted obsce -
nity! If they read Archdeacon Paley 's Moral Philosophy, they
will fully understand the force of the remark in all its diversi-
fied bearings. That worthy, when officiating at Carlisle, and
illustrating different modes of lying, used to say that a man
or a woman mivht act a lie without speaking a falsehood.
For instance, if, on being asked the way to London, a man
in Carlisle should point with his finger not towards Penrith,
but nod towards Gretna Green, he or she would lie as much
as if they gave utterance to an intended untruth in the most
intelligible phraseology. Now it is a parallel case with some
things that 'Mr. Power does in dumb show • they are as
broadly obscene as many allusions that are explicitly spoken.
Whether in the piece or not, is immaterial : they are intro-
duced as " gag' in worse than ordinary bad taste, and the
nuisance ought to be abated. Tne remedy lies less with the
Lord Chamberlain, or any deputy licenser of plays, than
with THE PUBLIC. Mr. Power is a clever and successful
performer and an immense favourite, but the liberties he
presumingly takes " by o'ersteppiny the modesty of na-
ture" should be discouraged. He seems to speak or parody
the words of his author according to the nightly state
of his own caprice ! How other steady, experienced actors,
mixed up with. him in an expected dialogue, get through
their duties, puzzles us not a little. As Dr. O'Toole, the
other evening, several parts of the dialogue he turned topsy-
turvy, and part of page 5 or 10 was rattled off, when some-
thing in page 4 or 9 should have been disposed of ! This is
odd ; but it may be one way of perplexing others, and obtain-
ing credit to himself, alone, fig' being perfect, and up to
his stage duty towards the public ! There are various
new ways of doing old things, and assuming credit for ori-
ginality. As good acting, as Charles Young used to say,
" don t depend upon thides (sides)," Mr. Power's new
stage " effects" may be matter for opinion ; but with every
wish for his success and popularity, let him avoid grossness
and obscenity.

DUBLIN REGATTA.

The most successful Regatta ever got up in this city was
that of Monday last, 22d inst., by the gentlemen of the
Pembroke Club.- This was fairly tested by the immense
crowd of fashionables who thronged the scene in every place
from whence a view could.be had. The club had au extensive
platform erected, which 'wa's filled with the elite anxiously
looking for the result of every race. The starting of the
boats and their return was managed with all the judgment
and order of the first race course in the empire. A military
band played the most modern and favourite airs during the
day. The river was alive with boats of all descriptions,
filled with persons anxious to have a nearer view of the dif-
ferent contests. The arrangements for the admission of the
friends of the club into the slip, or quay, were excellent; no
intruders could even land at the steps without tickets. The
first race came off shortly after two o'clock. which was—
The. Pembroke Cup, value 30 sovs., for four oared boats,
to be rowed and steered by gentlemen amateurs, with 15 sovs.
for the second boat. To be decided in two races and a tie.
The Unknown, Pembroke Club, blue with white cross 1
Hester, Chester boat, blue 2

Comet, Dublin Club, white
The Comet led at first, but the Unknown soon began to
make her powers known, and she headed and won, after a
severe struggle with the Hester, by about three boatslenth,
the comet being left far behind. The distance, three miles,
was rowed in 20 minutes.

The next race was a second to the former one, the winners
in each race to row a tie for the cup :
Crusader, Liverpool boat, white with red cross 1
Challenger, Waterford boat, tartan red 2
Wasp, Dublin Club, blue
Pembroke, Pembroke Club, rose and white 4
The Crusader won easily and in gallant style, and the crew
were loudly cheered.
The interest was well kept up by the rapidity with which
the boats were brought to the start. The next race excited
great interest.

A Purse, value £3, for two oared boats, to be rowed by
young gentlemen under 17 years of age.
Vixen, Pembroke Club
Bee, Dublin Club 2
Vestal, Pembroke Club
Lucifer, Dublin Club

The fisherman's race followed, after which the tie race
between the winners of the two first races came off. Both
crews came to the post evidently determined that no exer-
tions should be spared to insure success. On the word being
given they both started at a tremendous pace, but the Cru-
sader's soon began to overhaul their opponents, passed well
a-head, and came in early victors.
In the evening the club entertained their friends at a
dejeuner, which was kept up with great spirit until a late hour.

THE IRISH REGISTRATION BILL.

Some misapprehension (says the London Times of Tues-
day) appears to prevail as to the nature and effect of the
amendment proposed by Lord Morpeth, and carried in the
committee on Lord Stanley's bill. With a view to place the
object of the government beyond a doubt, . and at the same
time to show that it was worth their while to break the pledge
given a few nights before, we win copy the amendment
which is couched in the folloWing words
" That in making the register of voters for any county, city
town, or. borough, under the provisions of this act, the name
of every person who, when such register shall be made, shall
be registered as a voter for such county, city, town, or
rough, shall be placed and retained upon such register
long as his right of voting as such registered elector would
continue under the present law, unless he shall have lost
hie
qualification since he was so registered, or unless he ,shall
have become personally disqualified as such voter, or ha'i
died ; or unless his registry was effected by fraudulent per-
sonation."
The remnant of the reform ministry has by this amend-
naent made the following concessions :—Lord Stanley is to be
permitted, through the medium of the registration provisions
of his bill, to remove from the register four classes of voters,-
1. Such as have lost their qualifications share their original
registration.
ar
2. Such as have become pefsona.lke ss al ne d was luna-
tics, or persons holding offices which disqualify from voting.
3. Such as have died—a most gracious concession.
4. Such as, having personated dead or disqualified voters,
have succeeded in obtaining the benefit of re-registration.

The hired organs of the Melbourne Ministry, both
metropolitan and provincial, have laboured hard, with
characteristic rascality, to show that the recent attempt to
nanoverr
assassinate the Queen was a plot, and that it bad its ongim
either in the Orangemen of Ireland, the King a
or the Protestants of England. If plat it was, nothing as
rotligate Whigs-
likely that it was hatched by the base and. 1,,
themselves, for the purpose of reco.veriug the lost popularity
of their ill-used mistress, the Qu,een, and
making use of it
in the dissolution of Parliament, so long
threatened, and jutilF
perhaps to take place..-. 1 ewcastie Journal.

COUNTY LIMERICK.

MOST DARrNG ATTACK FOR FIRE ARMS AT TER
Housc OF MONTIFORD WESTROPP OF MELLON, ESQ.—
Between the hours of six and seven o'clock yesterday morn-
ing, four armed fellows, perfectly undisguised, approached
the house of Montiford Westropp, of Mellon, Esq. Two of
them remained outside, while the other two entered. One
of the latter immediately desired a female servant to shew
him her master's room, with which request she, of course
complied. Mr. Westropp was at the time in bed. The
fellow approached the bedside, and after ordering him to part
with his steward within a week, decamped with two loaded
pistols, which were lying on the bedroom table. The other
fellow who entered the house went at once to the bedroom of
John Westropp, Esq., son to Montiford Westropp, Esq.,
and demanded fire arms. The young gentleman said
he had none in his possession, on which the fellow
declared that he would break open a press which was
in, the bedroom, and make a search. Mr. Westropp
hereupon told him that there was no occasion for him
to break it open, as he. would open it for him himself,
which he accordingly did. When .the feilow found no
arms inside, he left the house. We regret to learn that
the family thus attacked made no effort to arrest the villains.
That they might at all events have made the attempt, and
with great chance of success too, would appear unquestiona-
ble, when, if we are rightly informed, there were two Eng-
lish, gentlemen sleeping in the. house besides Mr. Westropp
and his two sons. There were, moreover, nine servants in
and about the house, we are told, who might have rendered
assistance; and when we say that those nine persons are
Mathewites, and that they witnessed the attack, we think it
does not speak over powerfully in favour of the teetotal sys-
tem, when we say that they used no exertion whatever to ar-
rest the villains. Subsequently the Pallaskenry police went
in search of the party, but did not succeed in discovering
them. It will be recollected that a short time since this very
Mr. Westropp's horse was shot, and that at a more recent
date a threatening notice was posted for him on one of his
outhouset.—.Limerick Standard.

economy in atts.mitifariskis branches, ind mAy fairly be
said to include every thing that is important on the subject.
Our " good lady," to whom the publisher has addressed the
work for review, bestows upon it her most hearty commenda-
tions, as a Innuum in parvo of all that appertains to the
mysteries of cooking. Independently of the ample direc-
tions which it furnishes on this important subject, it contains
copious instructions respecting the management of poultry,
the dairy, and other matters of equal interest to the careful
housekeeper. No young lady should be without this book.
It should form one of the first presents from a lover to " his
intended."

A Brief View of the English Drama, from the Earliest
Period to the Present Time. By F. G. Tomlins. Lon-
don : C. Mitchell, Red Lion Court, Fleet-street. 1840.
We had great pleasure in noticing a former work from the
talented pen of Mr. Tomlins, on " the Past and Present
State of Dramatic Literature," to which the work before us
forms an admirable sequel. The author has brought to his
task a mind well stored with classical lore, and a taste culti-
vated by an acquaintance with the best standards of English
literature. With such qualifications he could scarcely fail
in producing a work entitled, as the one before us is, to the
best consideration of every lover of the legitimate drama.
He has introduced into the little tome under notice a mass
of interesting information of an historical character, and
offered many invaluable suggestions on the present condition
of the dramatic art, with a view to its elevation and that of
its professors. The subjects upon which he has dilated
include the classical drama—the romantic drama—the modern
drama—the state of the English stage—the metropolitan
drama—the patent theatres—legal enactments affecting the
drama—and a variety of other topics of the same character.

lIOUSE OF COMMONS.—TuEsnKt-.

Mr. WAU.BURTON said, that on July Ist he should move
that the house resolve into committeeon medical reform.
Lord J. RUSSELL stated, that on Tuesday next he would
move for a bill for the better government of the colony of
New South Wales.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in answer to Mr.
O'Brien's inquiry, said that he should soon call attention to
the renewal of the charter of the Bank of Ireland, as well as
to the Post-office arrangements.
Mr. F. KELLY then brought forward his motion for leave
to bring in a bill to abolish the punishment of death, except
in cases of murder and high treason.
Mr. EWART seconded the motion.

Lord J. RUSSELL declared that he should not oppose the
motion ; yet he must not be considered as pledging himself
to support the bill in all its stages.
The motion was eventually agreed to, Mr. F. KELLY stat-
ing that he should lose no time in proposing similar bills for
Scotland and Ireland. .

Mr. PLUMPTRE moved his resolution, declaratory " That
after the grant for the current year, no further payment of
public money be made to the Roman Catholic College of
Maynooth."
Lord MORPETH opposed the motion.

economy in all its multifarious branches, and may fairly be
said to include every thing that is important on the subject.
Our " good lady," to whom the publisher has addressed the
work for review, bestows upon it her most hearty commenda-
tions, as a multurn in parvo of all that appertains to the
mysteries of cooking. Independently of the ample direc-
tions which it furnishes on this important subject, it contains
copious instructions respecting the management of poultry,
the dairy, and other matters of equal interest to the careful
housekeeper. No young lady should be without this book.
It should form one of the first presents from a lover to " his

A Brief View of the English Drama, front the Earliest
Period to the Present Time. By F. G. Tomlins. Lon-
don : C. Mitchell, Red Lion Court, Fleet-street. 1840.
We had great pleasure in noticing a former work from the
talented pen of Mr. Tomlins, on " the Past and Present
State of Dramatic Literature," to which the work before us
forms an admirable sequel. The author has brought to his
task a mind well stored with classical lore, and a taste culti-
vated by an acquaintance with the best standards of English
literature. With such qualifications he could scarcely fail
in producing a work entitled, as the one before us is, to the
best consideration of every lover of the legitimate drama.
He has introduced into the little tome under notice a mass
of interesting information of an historical character, and
offered many invaluable suggestions on the present condition
of the dramatic art, with a view to its elevation and that of
its professors. The subjects upon which he has dilated
include the classical drama—the romantic drama—the modern
drama—the state of the English stage—the metropolitan
drama—the patent theatres—legal enactments affecting the
drama—and a variety of other topics of the same character.
