Otjb Clerks.—The Keeeeys. Tr> The Eng Li...
OTJB CLERKS . —The Keeeeys . Tr > the Eng lish farce , in its common acceptation , I cannot honestly prof ss a ttachment ; within my remembrance , no new practical joke has been *?* covered , and the fun is occasionally more dreary than amusing . In fit when I desire to laugh , it is my custom to go and see a leading tragedian in a part he has " made his own . " But when we go to see Buckstone or ^ Wright , or the Keeleys ,. we do not care : to look at the play-bill : if Buckston © were to play King John , or Keeley Samlet , or Mrs . Keeley Const ance , or Wright Ming Lear , it would be all one'to us : we go to see '" the actor , not the part . Keeley and his wife , as Our Clerks , were quite enough to take me to the Princess's last Saturday ; not to speak of the Corsican Brothers ( in which I begin to discern the possibilities of Charles Kean , as the Ghost in . Hamlet , on the improved sliding-scale he has so admirably introduced in this thrilling melodrame ) . Our Clerics are the Keeleys : Mrs . Keeley , the "fast ; " Keeley , the " slow . " Whatmore can be said to recom mend you to go , and laugh to your heart ' s content . Oh I think of poor Keeley smoking a weed under false pretences : trying to light his cigar- —never smoking except when his fast friend ' s eye is upon him—then gulping down the fatal poison with terrible bravado ; presently lolling back , limp and hel p less , in his chair ; breaking out into a cold sweaty and bending his head like a broken doll ; at last , creeping to the window for a breath of air ; and all this time a running fire of chaff from the fast clerk , and a burst of triumph at the catastrophe ! This is the scene in the farce . The rest of the business is neither original nor very funny ; and the love business , with the heavy guardian to bring about a happy denouement , is decidedly an ineumbrance . But the truth of the picture of the " reading" and the " briefless" man , and of their way of life , is capital ; and the language throughout is sparkling and neat . "Our Clerics" is a happy contribution to the repertoire of the Keeleys . Le Chat-Hxjant .

Money Mabket And City Intelligence. Fbid...
MONEY MABKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Fbidat MoBiTiira , March 12 . The apprehension now fast becoming general that the ministerial course of policy will be found antagonistic to the principles of free trade , and that a dissolution of par = liament must shortly give rise to a fierce struggle throughout the country , has had a depressing effect upon business , and the transactions of the- week have been characterized by an unusual And uniform want of animation . The failure , for a large amount , of a house in . tne East India trade , has gi ™>» cause for unfavourable rumours rospoobiug the stability of others , with what justice must soon be known . In consols , the operations have been limited , and with little fluctuation in price . The opening quotation on Monday was 97 £ f , and yesterday , after the settlement , which went off quietly , they closed at 97 $ f . Bank Stock has advanced to 220 . Exchequer Bills are steady at 62 s . to 65 s . premium . In the market for Foreign Stocks there has been less doing , but prices are fairly supported . Railway Shares , with a limited business , are very steady in value .

The Mabyleboive. Success Has Rendered Th...
THE MABYLEBOIVE . Success has rendered the manager of this theatre confident . He now produces his version of that terrible melodrama , The Corsican Brothers , and with it will harrow up Portman-market , as Charles Kean does Oxfordstreet . Kean ' s " d d good-natured friends" will hurry to the Marylebone to see whether the Oxford-street or Portman-market hero ( JEJenrv . Frazer ) bears the palm . . I haven't seen the Marylebone version , but I'll bet . two to one on Kean ! ''' ¦ ¦ -
Ella's Musical Evenhstgs. Among The Regr...
ELLA'S MUSICAL EVENHSTGS . Among the regrets at the treats I have lost lately , owning to the inexorable hours which will wait for no Vivians , I count that of having missed Ella ' s Mktsical Winter Evenings , conducted on the principle of his extremely delightful 3 £ usical Xlnion . A more refined musical evening is not to be had . The music is all of the best , and not too much of it ; the artists are those one loves to hear , being men whose celebrity is fully deserved—Ernst , Molique , Piatti , Halle , Pauer , <& c . ; and the audience is choice , not only in the " exclusive" sense , but also in the musical sense . Lovers of "fast" music find no attraction here ; lovers of operatic reminiscences coldly remembered have nothing here to their taste . A quintet of Mozart or Haydn , a sonata of Beethoven , a trio or concerto by Mendelssohn , varied by a couple of songs arid a pianoforte solo— -that is the whole bill of fare , and I assure you the lover of serious music remembers with pleasure every concert so arranged and executed . As I am in arrears with Mr . Ella , I will conscientiously devote myself to the remaining evenings , not that I am peculiarly sensitive about disappointing ^ him , but , like Tony Lumpkin , I don't like disappointing myself , and it is a disappointment not to attend his concerts . Vivian .

TXTOBKING MEN'S ASSOCIATIONS . — Yf The undermentioned Associations of Journeymen of various Trades have commenced business at the addresses below given ; and now call upon a fair-dealing and Christian public for the support of its custom and influence . Tho miseries of unlimited competition , the abuse of the powers of capital , have long taught the working olasaes that union is their only strength ; but painful experience has likewise shown that strength to be but wasted , for the most part , in combinations for the raising of wages , in the forced idleness of strikes . By united labour , therefore , they now seek to maintain themselves and their families ; and if not alwaya able to compete with the nominal cheapness of the alnpsellcr or the low-priced tradesman , they hope , in the quality and workmanship of their goods , to guarantee to all customers tho fullest value of their orders j whilst those who look beyond the work to tho worker—who feel that custom itself has its morality , and that tho working claasea of England have boon stinted of their duo reward in money , health , knowledge , and all that makes tho man , will aurely rejoice in aiding a movement whioh tends to substitute airy workshops for dena of filth andfovor—fairpriqea for starvation wagea—fellowship for division—and moral as well as praotioal self-government for meohanioal obedience , or thraldom bitterly felt—and by the peaceful , healthy , intelligent , and gradual processes of labour to aheck for over tho blind and sudden struggles of want . For auoh men there will bo scarcely a criminal or beggar , scarcely a pauper , prostitute , or drunkard , but will supply a living argument for associated labour .
