The Sun. — 1835-10-13 (London, England)

VICTORIA.  Last night, after the historical drama of Marie Antoinette, a novelty was brought out by the spirited manager of this theatre, under the title of The Smuggler's Haunt : or, A Fire-side Story. Giles Darrell, a smuggler and poacher, landlord of the Owlet public-house, has a son (Richard), who is in love with Miss Letitia Felton, the daughter of a 'Squire. The lady is betrothed to her cousin, young Rushton, a lawyer. In order to prevent the match, and secure the lady for young Darrell, the old smuggler murders the'Squire. The wadding of the musket with which the old gentleman was shot, had been torn from a book called " God's Revenge, against Murder." After the deed the wadding is picked up, and it leads to the detection of the murderer. The smuggler, Giles Darrell, was well played by Gann ; the heroine was Mrs. Selby. The piece, upon the whole, was well received, and given out for repetition amidst applause.  Q UgEN' S. The comedy of Simpson and Co. was revived at this heuse last evening, with a strong and effective cast of characters—Mrs. Nesbitt as Mrs. Simpson, Mrs. Honey as • Mrs. Bromley, Miss Murray as Madame 7a Trappe, and Mr. Williams (from the English Opera-house) as Mr. Simpson. Mr. Wrench re-appeared here in his favourite characters of Nat, in Family Peculiarities, and Valentine Quill, in The Station-House, both of which are peculiarly adapted to display his comic talent, and elicited the warmest plaudits from a crowded and fashionable audience, amongst whom we noticed Lord Lyndhurst, Lord Exmouth, Lord Anson, Lord Brudenell, Lady Paget, Hon. L. Stanhope, Captain Gordon, Major Hall, Sir L. Glynn, &c.  Co L OSSEum.—This most elegant of our metropolitan entertainments re-opened for the winter season last night. The whole of the fittings-up are of the most splendid and gorgeous nature, and the place altogether presents the most elegant. and attractive lounge in London. The principal entertainment, " Raphael's Dream," is merely a medium through which to present to the audience Ducrow's exquisite " Living Pictures." These are beautifully chaste and classic, ,particularly the Hermes, Sampson, and the Dying Gladiator. The " Courses," and the " Peacook Chariot," which, we understand, were a good deal calculated on .by the* proprietors, are extremely dull and stupid, but where there is so much else to admire we can overlook this. The stage is exceedingly pretty, and the scenery and machinery equal to those of any other theatre in London. Although a " first night," the whole went off with great smoothness, and, judging from the satisfaction which the entire performance appeared to give to a pretty numerous audience, we should think the proprietors will find it a profitable speculation.  E. S. CAYLEY, Esq., M.P.—Last week, the Scarborough Reform Association presented an address to E. S. Cayley, Esq., in acknowledgement of the very efficient services rendered by him to the cause of Reform, and to the Reformers of Scarborough in particulai, during the past session of Parliament. The address was signed by all the members of the Association, and was presented in the Old Globe Lodge Room. Mr. Cayley made a long and eloquent speech in reply, which elicited the warmest approbation of his auditors.
