The building Of this giant vessel was commenced
in January, 1852, and the hull was complete when
she was launched yesterday. The interior fittings
and the rigging have still to be completed, which
will be done with all possible despatch.
The town is placarded with the Drury Lane
posters, wherein Mr.. E. T. Smith promises great
things. Mdlle. Plunket and NJ. St. Leon are in them
selves sufficiently attractive to say nothing OF the
deservedly popular favortes Messrs. Davenport aud
Hoskins and Miss Fanny Vining. l have already
told you that the new legendary ballet is from the
pen of Mr.. w. r. Maxwell, and entitled The Spirit
Of the Valley" Mr. Davenport has met with great
success in Louis XL. at Edinburg, where he played
at the Adelphi.
A laughable occurrence took place at the Hay
market theatre some few evenings since. In the
first scene of Mr.. Planche's clever burlesqne OF
"Mount Parnassus," an imitation of Mr.. Albert
Smiths Mont Blanc" is given, Mr.. Caulfeld per-
sonating the popular author, dramatst and lecturer
By q previous understanding with Mr. Caulaeld, the
sung in duet with Mrs. Fitzwiniam, and carefully
fed Blackstone with his cues. Neither Blackstone
nor Mrs. Fitzwiam discovered the trick, although
the audience were one and all struck with the like
ness in appearance and voice. At last with one &C
claim, they announced the discovery, and Buck
stone and Mrs. Fitzwilliam joined in the general
hilarty.
We are all onthe tiptoe Of anxiety Tor Bourccauts

Monday. Mr.. James Anderson has gone to Liver
