NATIONAL THEATRE.

The performance of the Willow Copse" at
the National theatre on Saturday night was wit
messed by large assemblage. The 9Willow
Copse" is domestic drama Of much merit. 1t
abounds in fine passages and the most exciting
scenes. 1t was admirably performed, and the
most rapturous applauses bore testimony to the
satisfaction Of the audience. Mr. McDonough,
Mr.. Hale, and Mrs. Dufield sustained the
principal characters, and added much to their
already high fame. They were called out by
the house at the close Of the performance, and
made graceful and appropriate acknowledg-
ments.
The National presents unusual attractions
this week. The celebrated Irish comedian and
vocalist, Mr.. Collins, commenced an engage
ment last night, which we hope will continue
some time. Those who love mirth and MUSIC
should not let slip the opportunity now offered
to them Of hearty enjoyment.

s@- The Norfolk and Portsmouth Herald

says
while we award full praise to President
Fierce for his proclamation against the land
pirates of the Pacific, who in open day are
violating our laws and treaties by attempts to
rob friendly neghbor Of his territory, it brings
up A. bitter recollection, that for the same
prompt and paiseworthy act of President Fill
more in regard to the Cuba fflibusters, he was
ruthlessly assaulted by the same presses which
aided to elect Mr.. Pierce, and which will doubt
less, as one Of them (the Washington Jnion)
has already done, extol him for so nobly sus
tanning the laws and the obligations of treaties
The policy of President Filmore's administra-
ton was strictly national, and aimed at rigid
enforcement of the Constitution and laws, with
out fear, favor, or affection IfPresident Pierce's
administration is faithful to these high trusts,
it must in its own despite, sustain and exalt
the character of his 'illustrious predecessor !"
We take leave to say that there is marked
and manifest difference between the two pro-
CARNATIONS referred to by the Herald, and to
thecircumstances under which they wereissued.
We stated those differences in an article that
we published several days ago. Almost the
only points of coincidence between them are,
that they were both proclamations, and against
ilibusters. There was revolt, or it was 80
believed, in the case of Cuba. Natives of Cuba
were engaged with Lopez, who commanded
the expedition, and who was himself Span
ish subject. The discomfort in the island was
widespread-disaffectio general. But in the
case that has recently occurred, and which
drew out President Pierce's proclamation,
there was no revolt Of Mexican citizens against
Mexican rule. There was no discomfort among
them. They did not incite, encourage, or ex-
Pect any such expedition. Ittook them by sur
prise. They opposedit; they happily crushed
it. twas nothing but band of lawless ma
RAIDERS who went for the purposes of conquest
and plumber. ssalta

CONGRESS-.

In the Senate, yesterday, resolution offered
by Mr.. Cass, calling for all correspondence
touching overtures by the Papal States for
diplomatic relations with the United States,
led to considerable debate, in which the re.
cent outrages and violent demonstrations to-
wards the papal nuncio, NJ. Bedini, we're Sc
verely commented upon. The resolution was
adopted.
In the House of Representatives, Mr.. Ben
son offered resolution, which was adopted,
instructing the Committee on Agriculture to
inquire into the expediency of establishing an
agricultural bureau in connection with the De-
partment of the Interior
The House, in Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union, discussed the Erie rail
road difficulties.
