Theatres. Most English-Readers Of George...
THEATRES . Most English-readers of George-Sand ' s eharming little PastoraJ , Frtinjois-te-Cliampi , must have been somewhat astonished -when they heard , a few years since , that the authoress ; bad turned it into a play . Tlie story h ^ d e very merit
but the one dramatic merit necessary to fit it for the stage . However , the apparently unpromising theatrical experiment was tried ; jind , thanks to George Sand's delicate and artist-like treatment of the subject , ia the first place and to the excellent acting of the Odeon company , in the sec 6 nd , Francois-le- Champt as a play , achieved the success of the season at Paris . The experiment , which was a hazardous one , even in Prance , has just been repeated under doubly perilous circumstances , ; in England . Francois-le-Champi has been summoned to appear and speak finglish at the Adelphi Theatre . The simplest , the slightest , the least startling of stories , has appealed to an audience accustomed to returned felons , bribed accomplices , roaring thunder-storms , banging guns raving heroines , mortal combats , and terrific dreams—has appealed ; and , still more extraordinary , has been heaTd attentively ! This is much to begin with ; and we sincerely congratulate Mr . Webster on having succeeded , so far , in a most ; praiseworthy attempt to elevate the taste of his audiences . He might hare chosen a better play , in a dramatic point of view , from the long list of admirable dramas which have made the modern French stage famous all over Europe ; and which have been produced , it is to be observed , on a principle directly opposed to the peculiar theatrical doctrines advocated by George Sand . But , ivith all its defects of story , Franfois-le-C / iampi belongs , by virtue of its exquisite literary treatment , to a play of the highest class , and its production at the Aimslfhi is an era in , the history of Mr , Webster ' s management . Apiece of extravagance , in which Mr . Roxby puts his head through tbe hole of a work-table , and plays the " dummy" upon which milliners ' make and exhibit caps , has been produced at the IiYcEUM . In other directions , the theatres are " wrapped in the awfdl lull" which precedes the Christmas Pantomimes .

CORK MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday Evening , Dec . 15 . Tho arrivals of Wheat during the week , both of English and . Foreign havo been very moderate , and the extremely dull state of the trade , which we havo havoliadso frequently to report of late , has given way to one of greater firinuess . English Wheat has advanced and old Foreign is iu great request at Is . to 2 s . over tho prices current last week . There have been hardly any arrivals off the' Coast . A cargo of Saidi Wheat has been sold at 5 ls- cost » freight and insurance and Mazagan Maize was taken at 4 > Zs . 9 d . but there are now buyers at 45 s .
