when between " Boro , curtain ascended and discovered the entire company of dolls standing in a rew , flanked by an extensive group of subordinates . The National Anthem was sung by the proxies of the little figures , to which the latter gave all tho necessarv appearance of gesticulation and emphasis . — The "Marionettes " have long been a national amusement in Italy . The invention of them is attributed to one John Brioche , who first combined the motions of the puppets with comic discourse . They were common in London during the reign of Qaeea Anne , and at all periods have been u : ore or less in vogue ia France . At the Palais Royal they are now an established entertainment : and Mr . Simpson bids fair , by the excellence and completeness of his arrangements , to revive thoir popularity for a while in England .
ADELPHI THEATRE . The " Yankee Pedler , " brought out at the Strand Theatre , a few years aso , for the American actor Hill , and subsequently for Marble , was revived on Monday night for Mr . Joseph Silsbee , who played Hiram Dodge , in his own < hy and peculiar manner . The Americanisms in which the part abounds were received with roars of laughter ; and the sharp " down-easter , " who profits so handsomely by his " tarnation 'cuteness , " promised a repetition of the performances , amid -unmistakeable satisfaction . Mr . Silsbee has evidently taken a thorough hold of the Adelphi auditory .
ItOYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION , This establishment has lately received numerous works of mechanical skill and art from the Great Exhibition , many of them being particularly deserving of notice ; and among them we observed tiro flutes , constructed entirely of silver , one being plated with sold . They were manufactured by Messrs . Rudall and Rose , and both most deservedly obtained prizes—the first , invented by Bmhm , the council medal ; and the other , by Carte , the second prize . The latter flute is an improvement on the first , as the mode adopted by Mr . Boehm is difficult to execute . However , the plan adopted by Mr . Carte renders the mode of fingering extremely easy and perfect . The tones of this flute are most splendid in quality , and very far surf ass all kinds of flutes hitherto known .
Comparative Treatment Of Convicts And Sa...
COMPARATIVE TREATMENT OF CONVICTS AND SAILORS . ( From the United Service Gazette . ) It is at length announced that the mutiny among the convicts at Woolwich baa been suppressed by sundry floggings and removals . We must confess that we hear of these frequent mutinies among convicts with the greatest contempt for the authorities . These scoundrels , who have forfeited their rights of liberty , and in some cases their lives , by crimes the most villanous and atrocious , seem to receive more forbearance and tenderness at the hands of the authorities than our free and honest seamen , marines , and soldiers . It used not to be so formerly at our dockyards , where a large number of felons displaced tho hard-working labourer ,
and helped , by depriving him of employment , to starve his family . Convicts were then kept iu such wholesome discipline that they dared not throw even a " hang-dog " look at a keeper . Now , however , it would appear that they are permitted to become dainty in their diet , to insult , their keepers and defy their superintendent , and the mutiny 13 allowed to attain so serious a head that they flatly refuse to work , and are prevented from murdering the officers in chargcef them with miscellaneous weapons with which tbey contrive to arm themselves , only by bristling bayonets . and cocked muskets , and it is only when they are on the verge of a desperate onslaught that one or two of the ringleaders are flogged and otherwise punished .
The humanity-mongers , pseudo-philanthropist ? , and pri . son-reformers have indeed attained aclimnxin their pursuits and wishes , when rebel felons and murderers are spared up to tbe moment of a combined attack upon their jaiJors and officers , and our gallant , free , and honest seamen , unstained by vice , or degraded by crime , are daily subjected to be flogged for a h -isty hut provoked answer to a cadet or midshipman , for overstaying leave a few hours , or for , perhaps , an accidental act of intemperance . . It must , indeed , be an unmistakeable sign of a degenerate age . when the treatment of proscribed and convicted murderer ? , assassins , burglars , andbighway robbers occupy so much of the attention of select committees , public bodies , and distinguished naval and military officers , whose reports fill massive volumes of blue books , with tbe tendency to
relax the rigours of punishment and reform the criminal ; whilst , from one year ' s end f o the other , scarcely a whisper is ventilated through either house of the legislature , or through the public pro ?? , with the view of improving the condition of the men of the navy and army , of mitiyating the severity of military punishments generally , and of protecting British seamen and marines from the summary infliction of tie most revolting bodily torture , at the will of a single individual , for such crimes as being " ugly , " "lazy , " and alleged , hut not proved , " drunkenness . " " it has been contended over and over that convicts aro much better off than the honest labourer , and that the comfortable diet and lodging with which they rts provided , and the easy daily labour which is required of them , aro an inducement to
crime and a premium en robbery . Without assenting altogether to this sfirtlin * proposition , we may express the natural opinion deducihle from the facts which have been from time to time laid before the public with respect to tho management of convicts at the dockyards—that when we find sensnen and marines treated so badly as they very often are at the home ports , by the | petty and insolent tyrants in command over them—made to work so hard , confined so much , and hourly sworn at in the most disgusting manner , we cannot help the impression that good men will only join so degrading a service as that of the Royal navy at the last shift , aud ~ bad men will deem it an advantage to change the blua or the red uniform for the grey suit of the felon brigade .
