2 INTERESTING FROM BELIZE, Our Belize Rocediiondene ee Bete, Honduras, Nov. 18, 1863. Arrivats of Colton Wessels—The Vessels Up for Sale—Dan- gers of Bi ¢ Renning, de. Since my last I have to report three schooners, under English colors, from Brazos, foaded with cotton, as having arrived at (his port, They are the John Douglas, with one hundred and sixty bales of cotton; the Agnes, with two hundred aud forty-five bales of costen, and the Star, with two hundred and fourteen bales of cotton. One remarkable fact connec with these vessels, and worthy of vote as showing the true private opinion of blockade ranuers, is that all are for sale, none of them desiring or intending to return, Heretofore their great anxiety was to get back for another cargo; now it seems to be to quit the business. This does not arise from any extra vigilance on the part of ,overament cruisers, but I believe from a settied belief that the rebel govern- meat is about played out, I beg to submit a hint to New York merchauts, who are daily losing thou- gands of dollars by oglish built; armed and manned cruisers, like the Alabama ‘and Florida, which are commanded by Southern officers. Japan is now at war with England, ard is desirous of contracting for @ fow first class war (rigates to prey on English commerce, under Eaglish interpretation of international law.

I bave not seen any of the flolds my- self; but { am told VY persons capable of judging that the Soa Island cotton which was planted in this colony was fin as Giue a stato as was the famous Sea Island near Charleston, S.

Tho parties who initiated it were strangers fo the colony, its seasons, it climate and its soil, and, although their efforts, with our high labor, may not bo profitable tiris, tho first year, owing, among ocbar caus tothe crop: being put in at the wrong season, still the ex- lant continues to boll and bear ail the time, so a patehes of Sea Island, planted in dens in (own, having continued to bear for over three months from the time the first was picked, and now the bushea are still white, while now shoots, with blossoms, are putting out. By cutting off the old shoots as they are dove bearing there ‘soems to be a fair prospect that tho plant will continue to bear from year to year, And what {s the best part of the affair is, the cotton is of a very superior quality. ‘This year's crop, with all its drawbacks, will cost here from seventy cents to one dollar a pound; but with coolie or other cheap labor, and now that the ground is cloar- ed, Tam confident cotton can be cultivated at a profit in theoolony of Britian Honduras, The yosr which is now drawing to a close bas been a very singular one during what is usually ealled our dry season. from February to June, both included, we had_ heavy raing; 1p July and Auguet, dry weather, when we sbould have‘ had rains; and during the months of Sep- tember, Uctober, and up to the 12th of this month, we | bave had raing—heavy and continuons rains—with severe gales of wind and heavy thunder and lightning. | ‘These have damaged our sugar prospects.

AGENCY CASK AT LOUISVELLE. A de-tsioe of some importance to actors and agonts has just beea rendered by Justice Clements, at Loulavtilo, Kentucky. The case was an action for breach of con- tract. Me Reynolds, the plaintiit, who bad beon engaged for Messrs. Duiiield and Fiynn, of the Louisville theatre, “by their theatrieal agents, J. Coanor & Co., of New York, sued the defendants for his salary, oa the ground thi they had no right to discharge him before the term of his engagemont expited. ‘The defence of Mesars. Deffield and Fiynn was that they vever authorized Messrs. Counor & Co, to make any contract with the plaintiff. The Court decided as follows:— ‘This case 's most clear and plain, and comes wader rules of law so well known that I decta it unnecessary to make special reference to them. The plaintill came ‘to Louis ville and produced a contract of engagement signed by James Connor, of New York. This contract is mate for the term of six mouths, or longer, at tho option of both parties, So far from the defendants objecting to er repa- dhiting that contract, the plaintiff was permitted to full and did fullfl, bis part of said contract for fh or six weexs: and he was paid by dofendants or their trowsurer the amount of salary specified ta said contract, without auy demurrer or ‘ob'ection being made by do’endanta vl ‘This renders the contract valid and binding on the defendants, with- out regard to the question whether they did or did not authorize Messrs. Connor & Co, to make said contract. For the defence it is endeavored to prove that the plain- tiff was incompetent to fulfil the duties for which be was engaged, 98 juvenile actor and light comedian. The evt- dence shows that he was compatent; that ke performed satlsfactorily for Qve or six weoks, gaining the repeated applause of his audiences. This certainly must be al- lowed to be the best avd most reliable of compe- tency in anactor, Tae whole weight of evidence is in favor of the plaiotiffs competency. ‘The Court gives judg- ment for the plaintiff. LONDON. ‘Tho theatrical event in London ig the reoponing of M. Fechter’s Lycenm and the production of a new play by Jobn Brougham, called “Bel Demonio, a Tove Story,’ in whieh Fechter plays tho leadingepart, George Jordan an Italian noble, and Mr. Brougham the Pope Sixtus V. The play was vory successful and 80 were the actors. Brougham fs ospecially praised, and the papers compare his acting to that of Macready apd Kean in Lear; Pope Sixtus V., it will be remomberod, assemed the decrepitude of age in order to gain the votes of the cardinals. The play is in “twelve tableaux, and the scenery is described as ua- equalled om the London stage. M. Fechter bas abolished footlights ia his theatre, and every scone is now boxed tn like the drawing room scones at our best playhouser. It ts said that Fechter cleared ten thousand pounds with “The Duke's Motto”’ last season, and has spent half of this sum wpon these stage improvements. Charles Matthews bas revived Planche’s classical extra- vagayza, ‘‘ Tho Golden Viecce,”’ at tho Haymarket, with great sucosss. Mr. Matthows plays the chorus. Mrs. Lizzie Weston Davenport Matthews carries off the honors as the ecolding Medea, witb the song, ‘‘A row there'll be.” Acor- respondent wickedly suggests that Mrs. Matthews must have had mang prtvate rehearsa's of this part. ‘The Ticket of Leave Man,’’ by Tom Taylor, is still running at the Olympic. “The Ticket of Leave Woman’’ has been produced at the City of London theatre. Mr. Sothern has wade another great hit in ‘Flowers of the Forest,” at Manchester. Tho Queen is building a private theatre at Windsor. Horrman, the’ prestidigi- tateur, draws crowded houses at London. Miss Bate- man is so great au attraction at the Adelphi that two hundred new seats have been added. Tho Prince of ‘Wales often goos to seo “Teah,’’ and cries over it. Punch says, ‘‘What can we expect of Wales but blubber?"’ Mr. and Mra. Charles Matthows succossfully appeared at the Haymarket theatre, in Mr. Lotcoster«Bucking- ham’s comedy called “Silken Fetters.” Mr. Matthews proposes to play balf the year in Paris, and Mr, Alfred Wigan, the most accomplished french inguist upon the English stage, has formed tho same resolution. Arrangements are in progress to bitld a new thoatre at the West End, It {s ramored that Mr Dion Boucicault and Mr. Creswelt will reopen the West- minster theatre. Drury Line is still crowded; for every one ig anxious to see Lord Byron's “Manfred.” It 19 stated, as a singular instance of the ups and downs of theatrical life, that the actor who porformod the prrt of Manfrea when it was produced before, and who then di- vided with Mr. Macready the honors of dramatic fame, is now @ humble checktaker at the doors of the vory theatre where another actor is now piaying this identical part..
