BPECITLITION IN TALLOW.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE STATESMAN.

Sta,—For sees time past as attempt bu been
male, although attended with but little success, to
raise Ito prints of soap and candles. Neatly half a
itstii•u.of fumy has been embarked la the scheme,
to -iiTylirelt Is has hitherto rained is. that
of an accumulation of the raw material, to an wont
before equalled in the history of the trade. The
prices in foreign markets continue to decline, and the
supply like that of meet other articles, is most super-
aboadant, and Nearly double what the consumption
requires.
As yos are an advAeate for the public deriving
these volunteers from low prices to which they are
moat jestly entitled, I tenet that you will consider it
your duty to elation them agalast any attempt that
may be made forth, nest two or three months to force
up the prices, as from the internees* acetionlatioo of
stock, which by the expiration of that time will take
place cm this market, a reductios of 15 or 20 per
cent. must then inevitably take place. A. B.

Aa arreeell': little farce called Family Jars was in-
troduced to public notice last night. his scarcely pos-
sible to imagine any thing more simple than the plot.
which consists entirely of the equiroque arising out of
the mistakes of Porcelain, (Teem) whose occupation
is expressed by hie name, and Deg (Lisiow,) his Fore-
man, whose respective sons have married withoot the
consent of their parents. The humour of the piece is
well sustained in the second act by the interviews which
take place between the two fathers and their supposed
daughters in-law: here it was impossible for gravity
itself to resist the comic genius of LISTON. The Farce
ended, as all Farces are supposed to end, in reconcilia-
tion and mutual happiness The latter was commeni.
rated to the audience ; as Lirrom announced the piece
for repetition without bearing one dissentient voice.
Of LISTON we hare already spoken, though this may i
scarcely be considered necessary. TailllT is known to be
steady sad agreeable in every thing he undertakes. Mrs.
tiARRICIL and Mr. LEON* Lee sang some pleasing airs,
which were well received. The latter appears to he a
young was of gentlemanly, unassuming manners, and
might,we think, be brought with effect into some more pro-
n:inent character; his voice has a resemblance to hat of
Btaham. The rest of the parts were filled very respect-
ably; or at least the audience were io such perfect good
humour as to be well pleased with every thing.
