Wal1ack's rheatre-s'The Pet or the Public.

comedetta under the above ii lie played at this
house last night for the first time here. 1t is French
piece first translated by Mr. Edward Stirling for Miss
Rebecca Isaacs Hebrew vocalist who is chiefly distn
gushed for having sustaneda series of guerilla operate
skirmshes the London theatres during the past
three years. The pet is young actress who has at
tracted the attentions Of LADY killer who boasts tha
received tokens of her admiration. The jealousy
of the sPes husband Is awakened by the braggsdoeio
othis person. and the wife, quiet it. DISCUSSES herself
in various odd costumes, and nearly fghtens her ad
rer out Of his Wits He makes apology the husband
is satisfied, and everything is settled ami :aby.
The weight of this piece falls upon the shoulders of
Miss Hodson, who enacts the part OF the young
who is supposed to be the "Pet Of the
Public" The whole thing Is mere triHe-perhaps
beneath criticism but Miss Hodson did dot succeed with
it. She is not clever actress and to be unfor
tunate in being cast for parts wh;h require great deal
of stage tact and epossesson. She does not possess
either Of these qualities Indeed she positively
dsraie She sang three songs effectively, but there
seemed to be dispute between the vocalist and the
leader Of the band to the key and the time. Una
nnity on these points is very desirable, and we hope
that the music of this piece will have another rehear
cal The sketch-for it is nothing to have
been done originally for the purpose of showing of the
points Of favore actress. The apology for plot is
exceedingly absurd and the dialogue the veriest
mopplace. The songs made il respectable success
and it win be done again this evening The house
about two thirds FILED.

PRESIDENT PIERCE's Corr D'ErAT on THE
SPEAKERsHIP--THE KANSAS MEssAGE.-We pub
lish day from the Cabinet organ in ertenso, the
special message of the President to Congress
on the Kansas controversy. We take it that
this is the Executive coup detat which was threa-
tened a few days ago oa the Speakership; and
we may also consider it as codicil to the an
nual message, on the the slavery question, for
Southern capital at Cincinnati.
The special object of this message on the
Speak ership was, We suspect, to drive the anti
administration elements to the wall on this
Kansas question, under the presumption that
there are many halfway members among them
standing out against Banks, who will find this
message too hard dose to swallow, and will
straightway fall in upon Banks, as choice Of
evils. How many Of the Fuller men, as las.
resort between the endorsement of this terri Die
message and the adoption of Banks, will
choose the latter, remains to be seen. The
first effect of this peculiar State paper" has
very naturally been to strengthen the union
and the resolution Of the Banks men; and the
second effect will be the election Of Banks,
probably, or the inevitable prolong cation of the
souabble At all events, the message has an
swered the object of tub to the whale, and
goes very far to show that the President de-
sires the election Of Mr.. Banks if possible,
without the direct cooperation of the demo-
Gratis in his behalf His Excellency, however,
may fall short of the mark, for it is very likely
the "South Americans" so called, will see
through the trick and laugh at the decoy
In the next place, this special message, as
bid for Southern capital at Cincinnati, will be
perfectly harmless Southern men may like
it-Southern mass meetings may eutogize it.
Southern State conventions may praise the
author Of 1t as the true man for the crisis, but
when they get to Cincinnati they will find that
Mr.. Pierce is too short by foot for the active
business Of the campaign. Something more
than the discharge of Reeder and the appoint
ment Of Shannon rs Governor Of Kansas will
be required of the democratic nominee for
1856. He must be relieved in the very outset
OF the dead weight of this administration. And
yet Mr.. Pierce is really in fori IL. Cushing will
be the death of him. Read his message.

"KANsAs AFFAIRS. A letter from
Weston, dated the goth, from a reliable
source, says: II yesterday met a member

after going through the farce of %electins

if Northern fanatics will only suffer them

his presence to execute the writs. This
was on Monday last, and it is probable
that it has been done. A dispatch from
