Summary of Continental News—The New Cab Law—The Great Britain Steamer—Theatricals— Sims Reeves’ Benefit—The Crowd—The Ladies— Their Looks and their Toilettes—Jullien’s Adieu— Lines from“ Diogenes,” §c., §c. From Vienna, July 17, we learn that the Rus- sians have occupied all the fortified places on the Wallachian side of the Danube, and from Peath, two days earlier, that all the available steamtugs have been secured by the Austrian government, to tow up large vessels, containing Austrian infantry, daily pouring into the city. The Paris correspondent of the Times reports that the measures taken by the Russians in the Danubian Principalities, but particularly in Moldavia, are of such a kind as to lead one to imagine that the Em- peror Nicholas has not the remotest intention of abandoning them soon. Eighty thousand men, up to the present time, are supposed to have crossed the Pruth. The Paris exchange experienced a decline yester- day, owing to the unfavorable rumors. Mr. Fitzroy’s hackney cab act is giving plenty of employment to the metropolitan magistrates, who have daily, each, some four or five cases of disputed fares to decide. ‘The screw steamship Great Britain, Captain Mat- thews, will be despatched for Australia on the llth of August next, and, from the alterations which have been made since her arrival here, it is expected she will make a very rapid ran. During my brief sojourn in this sublunary “round- about,” it has been my lot several times to see ppor old Drury Lane tolerably well filled, (very recently too, on two occasions, Jullien's farewell testimonial concert, and bal masque,) but never to my recollec- tion was it ever so crowded as on Wednesday evening, at the occasion of our celebrated tenor, Mr. Sims Reeves’ benefit. The house was packed to suffvcation, and even that was a pleasure, in such goodly company. Such pretty girls! such exquisite toilettes! such amiability, and such applause for the beneficare and his charming and talented little wife, who warbled through the part of Zerlina with con- summate ability, all the more charming from the ap- parent unconsciousness that she was achieving one triumph quick upon another. Mr Sims Reeves is a great actor as well as a great singer, and has made vast improvement in the histrionic art, since he first took the town by storm, (during M. Julien’s operatic management of Drury Lane, in 1848,) when he ap- peared as Edgardo in “Lucia di Lammermoor,” not sharing, but grasping the laurels from every other tenor who had preceded him. ‘Fra Diavolo” never before found so able a representative on any stage, either at homeorabroad—and you may safely believe your Don, who has heard every tenor who has impersonated the Brigand of Terracina, during these past fourteen ears—in any theatre between Rome and St. Peters- urg; the music of this master-piece of Auber's genius is very difficult, particularly the tenor part, which is written very high and very low, requiring en conséquence, a voice of no mean quality to do it full justice. Mr. Reeves mastered, apparently with- out an effort, all difficulles. Inthe barcarole sung by the seductive robber to Lady Allcash, the beautiful serenade “Young Agnes,” and the celebrated scena, “Proudly and wide my standard flies,” wherein the dare-devil highwayman recounts the exploits of his juivocal calling, he quite electrified the house, who, as the elder Kean was wont to say in the palmy days of the legitimate drama, “rose at him;” aye, that they did in one unanimous mass, not Satis- fied till he had three times repeated each morceau! Mr. Sims Reeves died like a Roman, full of that culiar courage traditional in those who follow ao des- perate a game. Lorenzo, the second tenor Part, was carefully enacted by our old friend Mr. Manvers. Mr. Weiss, for this occasion only, kindly consented to play Lord Allcarh. Truth to say, wo n 8 a der. ah fine, rich voice told to perfection in the concerted music, and he looked every inch a lord. Miss Julia Harland (whom all you enlightened Yankee playgoers know), now Mrs. Hoskins, was not only a very lady-like ly Allcash, but sang the music allotted to the part with her usual taste and sey The veteran, Mr. 8. Jones, almost the jast of Mr. Bunn’s original corps-musical, wa3 Mat- teo. Messrs. H. Corri and Farquharson Smith rep- resented the two collateral theives, to the imminent danger of the rixible muscles of the anditiory, par- ticularly “the deities,” who were as clamorous in their laughter as in their applause. The chorases and orchestra were as near perfection as possible, and the mise-en-scéne left nothing to be desired. Mr. Hoskins was the stage manager for the occasion, and Mr. Sims Reeves had indeed to congratulate himself on having secured so able a coadjutor. After the opera, Mr. Reickart, the renowned Bel- ‘ian flatist, whose services have been secured for 1. Juilien’s American tour, astonished to some con- siderable degree the audience with one of his original fantagias. ‘The old musical farce of “The Waterman" (which of course you never saw) brought the ent in- ments to a most satisfactory termination. Mr. Sims Reeves was the Tom Tug, and acted it as well as ever I’. P. Cooke did William, and sang it somewhat to the detriment of old Braham’s reputation. Dib- din’s ever acceptable ballads, “The Jolly Young Waterman,” “Farewell, my trim-built Wherry, and “The Bay of Biscay,” will live for ever, par- ticularly if Mr. Sims Reéyes could live for ever to sing them. The audience really exacted too much, encoring everything, and then called on Mr. Reeves to give “Rule Britannia” and “My Pretty Jane.” Ali the principal artists were called before the cur- tain, led on one by one by Mr. Sims Reeves, _ Hun- dreds were turned away from the doors. Mr. Reeves cleared £423—not so Lad, when it is considered that the Coe were very heavy. Mr. William Allcroft, lessee of the Lyceum and Strand theatres, takes his annual theatrical benefit at the former house on the Sth of the ensuing month. Mr. Alfred Wigan, the future manager of the Olympic, has purchased eeveral pieces from our best authors, including Douglas Jerrold, Bourcicault and Charles Kenney. The Royal Surrey theatre, under the su- perintendence of Mr. Edward Stirling, is progressing most favorably as a summer English opera house. Misses Romer and P. Horton are the prime donne, and Messrs. Trabers, Romer and Henry Drayton (an American) the stars of the opposit x. Mr. Dray- ton’s Bertram in “* Robert the Devil,” is well spoken. of py all the town papers. Mr. Benedict, the cele- brated conductor who officiated on the occasion of Mr. 5. Reeves’ benefit, has announced his usual an- nual and monster concert. MrvSamuel Emery is starring in the provinces, as indeed are nearly all our best actors and actresses including Mmes. Ve: itzwilliam, Reynolds, Matthews, and Messrs, Charles Mathews, Buckstone, Chippendale, Frank Matthews and Roxby. ‘the Duchess of Sutherland, the “Mrs, Beecher Stowe and Uncle Tom aristocratic sympathizer, gives a grand “ Matinée Musicale,” to-morrow, at Suther- land House. The names of Signors Mario, Tamber- lik, Ronconi, and Sims Reeves, and Mme: ardot Garcia, Tedesco, Bosio, G and Mra. Sims Reeves appear in the programme, which is printed in gold Jetiers on fine watered satin. Mr. Albert Smith, so it is reported, has purchased the Egyptian Hall, Pic- cadilly, at a cost of some thou-ands of pounda. Mr. Robson, the rising low comedian, of the Olym doing wonders a3 Shylock, in Mr. Talfourd’s clever ysque on the immortal Shalspeare’s ‘‘ Merchant of Venice.” (tAnother burlesque on Mr. Kean’s version of Lord yron’s ‘‘ Sardanapalus” was produced on Wednes- day evening at the Adelphi. It is, I regret to say, considered as a burlesque, a decided failure, being perfectly void of plot, (the story of the poetic lord’s tragedy being entirely expunged,) and void ofa single joke or situation. From first to last the scenic eflects of the Princess’ have been closely followed, with, if possible, in: | splendor, partieuiarly in the costumes. Mo-i » first rate actors and actresses of the corps vce included in the cast, and have greatly to be pitied for the little they have to do. Miss Woolgar, as the Assyrian King, was ex- quisitely attired, and Mr. Keely looked Sairey Gamp- ish as his mother-in-law, doing all in his power to render a slow part funny. As the Z'imes very justly says, “One circumstanee, indeed, renders the bur- lesque like the original. The original depends for its success mainly on its decorations—the burlesque de- pends on its decorations alone.”’ But for Mr. Bour- cieault’s fine drama of ‘ Genevieve,” I really think this fiae company—thanks to the incompetent mana- ger—would nightly have played to empty benches. @ performances of the company at the St. James theatre this week are purely Shakspearean. Wednesday night ‘‘ Hamlet’? was produced, with Herr Deurient ay the Prince of Denmark; “ Othello,” with Her Dessoir as the jealous Moor announced for this evening. This will be a it novelty to our town playgocrs, The theatre is, 9s usual, fashionably and well attended. Kverybody who has seen “ palus” at the Princess’, is sure to visit Mr. Allcroft’s Strand theatre, where “Sambodampalus” is all the rage. Miss R.’ Isaacs is eharming as the anomalous young King. Nothing else but farewell dinners to M. Jullien and his talented band, is the order of theday. Tonight I join them at the Freemason’s Tavern, toa grand farewell dinner, given by most of the first-rate mem- bers of the musical profession. In my letter of Tues- day evening, I Lord's ving you an historiette of this talented indi re aves Liverpool on Wednesday for New York. Apropos de Jullien, the following lines are extract- ed from Diogenes, the very clever and very dan- gerous rival of the world-renowed Punch.

An original farce, verbatim from the French, was produced last eve: at the Princess’ theatre, under the title of ‘‘Mr. Chesterfield Thin- skin.” It is a mere bagatelle, scarcely affording the veteran Harley, who enacted the hero, an opporta- nity of raising a laugh. The audience seemed de- lighted—when it was over! Vauxhall, Cremorne, and the Zoological Gardens are doixg very badly, ore to the continued wet weather.

[From the Boston Courier, Aug. 6.] There is, in every large community in the United States, a set of oyster-house politicians—without a habi- tation or a name—chicfly foreiga patiiots, who live by speculating on the credulfty of their industrious coun- trymen. We have such a gang in this city, whose drunken acts during the past few months have kept our paturslly industrious and well disposed Irish population in ment, There leadera mostly cougregaie in dingy rooms in obscure hotels, and there raire issues among their simple countrymen, as to the Impropriety of being riest ridden; but the moment the counsel of the leader 3 dist the party disobeying is marked and made to suffer a higher pensity than was ever iuflicted by in- quisition or any terrible court, seccet or open. The jenders have no cceupation, and they live maiuly by ar- ranting ovations tor some great patriot soon to arrive, and the business is said to be qnits profitable, The patriot, who, in many cases, knowa little of the character of his friends, eccapta the proilered banquet, comes to town, is received in regal style aad ushered into the city by a company of soldiers baacing his pame upon their ciest. One of these empty pageants tock place in this city on Wednesday evening, and wo propore, briefly, to state one incident of the occasion. Ir will be recollected that a public dinner was given at Farevil a honer of Thomas Francis Meaghor’s birth day. ruard 8, Treanor presided, and Patrick O'Donohce, the recently escaped convict from Van Die man’s Land, was present as a guest. Late in the evening, Mr. Treanor offered a fulsome toast in honor of bis friend O’Donchoe. the insincerity of which we shall show ia a moment. Mr. O’Dorohoe took from his pocket a large 10ll of manuscript, aud was proceeding to read his speech —after the fashion of Mr. Meagher and Br. Savage, who bad preceded him—but being unable to make himself beard, Mr. Treanor advised hia to icrego ony attempt to speak. O’Donohoe regarded Treanoz's course as undigni- fied, and wrote to him his opinion to that effect daring the’ night. Treanor, who claims to be a Captain of « company eailed the Meagher Rifles, feigned great indig- nation at the contents of O'Donohve’s note, ead straight vent an individual with tho bistoric name of Mv and titled Major, with a mestege to tuo offending O'Doa- oboe, to the effect that bo must withdraw the offensive note, apologize—or fight. Mr. O'Donohoe would not consent to apologize or fight either. Thus ended matters on Wednenday night. ‘On Thursday morning # Licut. Stunot bore a regular challenge frem Treanor to O'Donohoe, erking a meeting at Manchester, N II, at ten o'clock yenterday morning. O'Donohee was greatly incensed, avd ina fit of pstriot- im, Lect SY bel ecpsented to tho arrangement He was somewhat tardy in his answer, however, and another letter came to him, eaying that if’ he did not come up to the scratch—to ure the language of the ring—he would be posted ae. coward and whet not, Finally he consult ed with a friend, who advised him of the nature of our Jawa upon the subject of dueling, and the severe pun- i-bment which he would have to undergo if convicted of accepting a challenge. He repented, and promised to twhe no notice of the war document. Yesterday mornivg, upon hearing that Treanor, with his second, Mulcaby, had gone to New Hampetire, 0'Do- nohoe began to be s0-ry for the tems course he had pur- sued; and be declared he would follow them in the first train. To prevent him from so doing, his frieads had him arrested on # charge of accepting a challenge. and he.wa: taken before Justice Rogers, who held him in the sum of $2,000 for exemination on Friday next. Mer. Do- nokoe, the proprietor of the Pilot, came forward and gave the requist'e bond for the sabsequent appearauce cfhis vofortupate namesake. The Chief ot Police, in the meantime, caused « warrant to Le issued for the apprehension of Captain Traraor, and, we believe, Mejor Muleshy.

[From the Leamingion Spa Courier, (no date) } A most scandalous act was perpetrated here (3tratford- upon Avon) within the lart few days, which cannot be ‘too strongly stigmatized. It has been ur; and justly £0, a8 & characteristic of Englishmen, that a desire to perpetuate their name has led them to injure monuwents; and that “Saxon” initials can be fo: traced from the summit of the Fysamid of Cheops down to the lowsat depths of a coal mine; but, withal, that passion for earthly immortali y has, we believe, never led them to commit an act of flagrant diehonesty and wanton mutila- tion such as the one we are sbout io relate, At the ham- let of Shottery is eituated the house where Shakspeare wooed and won Aun Hathaway. In that lowly cot isa well thumbed sacred volume, known as “The Hathaway Bible.”’ on the fiy leaf of which are inscribed the nawes of the family, descendants of the fair damsel who took captive ‘-the lone star of his own and after ages.” This precious relic is. preserved with great veneration, aa an invaluable family memento, enhanced by its connection with the mighty genius who lent a lustre ta it by his im- I name. On Tuesday, the Sth inst., about six he evening, three straogers visited the dwell- jewing the “Lions,” expressed an ardent and persevering desire to become posse:sora of eome mo- mepto of the poet—a part of the ead, or a chip of ‘the couzting bezch,”’ as it wasfcalled—in fact, anythiog; but all to no purpose. after several ineffectual attempts, one of the visiters—a gentieman, if such he be called—engaged the cicerone up stairs. whilet his companions, who were females, went into the lower room. When he descended, the guide observed the elder female neer the Bible but did not notice anythiag ‘The man then approached the fire near which a litt) girl of the house was sitting, and gavo her sixpence; after which the party took their we. About half an hour after they had quitted the cottage, ihe womsa in- habi ing it had occa-ion to look ut ths Bible, and, to bh ief ard consternation, found a portion of the’ fly-lea been sacrilogiously torn out. on which was written the following entry of birsh:—"July Ist, 1776, William Taylor, son of John Hathaway Taylor.” Tas poor wo man Immediately went, to, Strat(ord, fd learnt that ee persons. answering ption, had left the Red Horse Hotel. in a car or fly waich had been hired at the War Arms Hotel, Warwick. (She returned disconsolate- ly to her home, and, on referring to the visiters’ book, eaw that the last signatures were as follows:—'‘H. Johnson, late Governor of Louirana, U.8.A., and Miss Taomp: son.” The scandalous act is deserving of the severest re- probation. as destroying a link in the pedigree of the umble family, of which they wore justly proud, snd is a iece of vandalism that none but a Goth would e man who wrote his xame as above given wai amit. bout fifty years old; his elder companion absut the aame ago, and his younger friend about twenty or twenty-one yeara old.

My dear Sir—I do myself tne pleasure to enclose hore- with a note of introduction, which Mr. Dilke was kind enough to send me this morning. 1 do this in order to save time. I shall leave New York for Liverpool in the steamer of the 23d of next month, and will tarry in Liverpool a day or two for the purpose of affording the enterprising mer- chants of that flourishing town such information and ex- plapations concerning the vind and current charts as they may derire to have. se charts, and the sailing directions conneeted with them, and which have contributed no much towards quick passages, sre furnished gratis by the government to the master of every American merchautman who will agree to keep, acooidiag to form, and return to this office an abstract log of his voyage. Iam now authorized by the government to place the masters of Eoglish morchantwen upon the same footing. Therefore I have said I would make it convenient to tarry in Liverpool a day or two, fot the pur; of a! for¢ing British ship masters and owners such expla: tions and information upon the subject as theymay de- nite to have.

My Dear Sir :—The suporvintendent of the cbservatory here, Lieutevant Maury, is on his road toa Congress at Brussels, called for the’ purpose of carrying into move fully the system of shortening the passages by sailing vessels. The discoveries already made by Lieutenant Maury hare, as you are probably aware effected wonderful changes in the routes taken by our commercial ebips; the tinue occupied In their yoyages has been immensely diminished, and altogether the system ix @ most important one as regards commerce. It has occurred to some of my colleagues and myself that it would be very udvisable Lieutenant Maury wero to be brought into communication with one or to of the leaéing shipowners at Liverpocl, but not having the Pleasme of personal acqusintance ‘with any, we have ecided that I should write aud ask your ktnd oifices. May we, therefore, request you to furnish him with a note of introduction? Yours, truly. C WENIWORTA DILKE, The Worshipful the Mayor of Liverpool. The Chairman said he had not heard anything of Licu- tenant Maury or of Mr. Dilke, except what was contained ‘tn those communicatione Of course the members of the Dock Commitice would be very glad to introduc Lieu- tevant Maury to the merchants and shipowners of the town. Mr. Rankin remarked that a great part of Lieu- tenant Maury’s book was taken from Mr. Towson's wk, without Lacknowledgment, Mr. Barber thought the sub- ject upon which Lieutenant Maury was eogaged was of importance to the whole of Great Briiaia, and whether his ioforoation was second-hand or original it was not for the committee to decide. Mr. Ransin said that Mr, Tow:on was really so modest a man, that when a thing vas appropriated in that way, without the slightest ac- knowlodg ment, he thought it should be known, and that was renily the case. (Hear. hear.) It was then resolved that the receipt of the communications should be ac knowledged, and that the msyor be informed that the committee would be very glad to introduce Lisutenant laury.

Yesterday they were sworn in before John McKibbin, Jr., Exq-, Secretary to the Sheriff, and Commissioner of Deeds, at the effice of the Sheriff, ia consequence of the non-artival of the letter sufficiently early to perform the duty himeelf. In addition to the above, there wil be some twenty more sworn in shortly, all of whom are intended for doing duty along the Nerth river only. Thete beat will extend from pier No. 1 Nerth river to Franklin street, namely, as far asany sailing vessel lies, The extent of jurisdictioz along the East river is not yet determined om, but a police force will be organized for the same purpose a8 coon ag possible after the North river one is im active operation, The force is made up of a superior class @! active and respectable young men, including among tte members rome of the city police department, as well ag of the Crystal Palace police, whose experience will be of great service to the corps. Previously to swearing in the members of the mew force, Mr. McKibbin addressed thean. in brief terms, stating they were to consider themselves ag under th mand of Capt. Rakiele vitz, the sheriff hay- ng to further authority over them except to swear them in, and to dismiss them if they negiected their duty; that they were organized for the purpose of protecting the shipping and property ef the merchants along the quays and docks of the North river, and that any derelis- tion of duty om the part of apy one of thom would be visited by dismi-tal from the force. After swearing the officers in, Mr. McKibbin addressed the new pclice force to the following effect, that it wasa private enterprise. under no coutro! of ‘the municipal authorities, and that he hoped they would perform thet duty im such s manuer as sot to bring any censure upen the sheriff, who had acted in this circumstance on his own respomsibility. There had beea much jealousy manifested from certain quarters on account of its being a private enterprize. The sheriff hewever, had been ea- treated earnestly to give his consent to it, whic had fa- duced him to act as he had dene. He hoped thi cenduct would be such as to ensure them the newly sworn in officers some further good advice as te the course they shou‘d pure whica was attenti listened to by the officers, and we have no doubt will be followed out. ‘The company'then adjourned to Rabineau’s, in Chambers street, where an exceilent dinner had been previded far the new police force and their friends.
