MESSRS . ALLSOPP & HOWS' PALE or UITTHIt ALKS have been unquestionably vouched by the most eminent Scientific and Medical men of ( ho ( lay , to lie " a very agreeable and ellicient Ionic , as > i general beverage both for tiie invalid and the robust ; and as tending , from the pure and wholesome nature of tho ingredients employed , the moderate proportion of alcohol present , and the very considerable quantity of aromatic anodyne bitter derived from hops alone which they contain , to preserve the tone * and vigour of the stomach , and to conduce to the restoration of that organ when in a state of weakness , debility , or irritability . " In all cases in which malt liquors are mutable , none nice ! , the desired ell'ect more certainly , none are prescribed with more confidence by the Faculty . " The careful manner in which the fermentation is conducted , causes them to assimilate to Foreign Wines more thun the ordinary alcH of this country ; and on this account they do not occasion that acidity of stomach created by tho lean perfectly fermented ales . " " These Hitler Heerrt differ from all other preparations of malt , in containing a smaller amount of extractive matter , thus being less viscid and saccharine , and consequently more easy of digestion . They resemble , indeed , from their lightness , a Winu of Mai . t rather than an ordinary fermented infusion ; and it in very satisfactory to ( hid that a Coverage of such general consumption is entirely free irom every kind f » f impurity .

Hotchkins and Mobbs , tho accounts of the Ship " Ballengiech , " A 1 , which sailed for Port Philip , Australia , on tho 18 th September , with 190 adults , and 247 souls on board . This Ship wasunder Mrs . Chisholm ' a regulations and personal control . In tho caso of provisions , water , and fittings , tho undersigned in each case took tho highest , and not the lowest , tender mailo , in order to secure to the Emigrants the best provisions . Tho personal risk to tho undersigned was upwards of £ 4000 . lie is able to state that the profit , when the proceeds from Australia of Cargo and Emigrants landed are received , will approach £ 500 . He trusts that , the above advantages of wending Emigrant Ships from Southampton rather than tlio Thames will ho demonstrated by the result of this voyage , while the danger and delay of tho Downs and Goodwin Sands will have been entirely saved to tho Emigrants . The undersigned therefore trusts that all ( Jovernment Emigrants will in future go from Southampton , and not from London , as all such persons now do . The Railway Company under whom the undersigned nerves , has been amply paid tor every Emigrant conveyed to tlui . Ship , and every one of the Stores and Cargo so convoyed . Two boxes for Mrs . ' Chisholin were only paid for by that lady . The undersigned merely inserts this advertisement that tho result may ho known , find that , others with larger means than himself may go uud do likewise . WYNDHAM HARDTNY ] , Secretary of the London and South Western Hail way . " Wimbledon , 2 <( th October , 1 H& 2 . gi ' . S . —Since writing tho above , the . Secretary has received tho acceptance hyll . IM . Land and Emigration CommissionerM , of the Tender oi this Company to provide Depots at Nine Elms and Southampton , so that the emigrants may in future be embarked from Southampton , rather than from Deptford , by which they will avoid tho perils of the Downs and ( Joodwin Sands , and for which he conceives there is reason to return thanks to Divino Providence .

best with two indifferent parts , and Leigh Murray , for the first time in his life , was positively " at sea" with his part . The acting of the Lycettm piece was good throughout ; but especial notice is due to Mr . Suter's hearty and humorous picture of the grocer married above his " station . " Prank Mathews has a bit of character ; Boxby a languid fop ; Baker , a milkman , who " waits at parties" under the . name of " Montgomery ; " Mrs . Frank Mathews , a vulgar widow , horribly afraid of vulgarity ; Julia St . George , a " proper" wife for the hearty grocer ; and Miss M . Oliver , an interesting young wife . They were all in capital spirits , and p layed their parts as if they enjoyed them . A line or two will be sufficient to chronicle the success of the new
farce at the Hatmaeket , A Capital Match , which succeeded , because of the admirable acting of Keeley , who scarcely ever left the stage . It is a slight affair , and turns on Mr . Sunnyside ' s perplexities to secure a husband for a young lady who is already married . I promised last week to speak at some length of Anne Slake after reading it ; the book , however , is not yet published . Therefore , Mr . Chairman , with your leave , I move that the criticism be adjourned ; those who are of that opinion will hold up their hands ; the contrary theirs : carried ! Vivian .

KING HENRY THE FIFTH . Not content with making his solemn temple a school for the national drama , Mr . Phelps has converted Sadler ' s Wells into a school of martial fervour and national glory for the young militiamen of Middlesex , " of a roving disposition and five feet two , " as Mr . Macaulay describes them , who are burning ( in tight and staring stocks and scarlet ) to die for our homes and altars , as policemen die for our areas and kitchens . Seriously I believe the production of Henry the Fifth to be a capital substitute for the ballot in completing our regiments of volunteers . The most unwarlike man that ever grasped a steel pen fires up and longs for a stouter weapon , as he gazes with atossing heart on that page of England's annals
so nobly illustrated by Phelps and his gallant army . Many ( among whom i regret not to name myself ) remember the production of this grand historical spectacle at Drury Lane as one of the crowning triumphs of Macready ' s direction . Mr . Phelps , who has with equal courage and modesty , and with all the fidelity and enthusiasm of a disciple , followed the traces of his master , on a smaller stage and with humbler resources , revives Henry the Fifth at a most opportune moment , when National defence is the cry , and " Louis Napoleon in the Channel , " the vague
expectation . Nothing can be more complete than the ensemble of this representation : every scene , every grouping , every movement , every tableau , carefully and intelligently studied . The result reminds you of the doings of the Theatre Historique in the days of Dumas , for brilliant colour , and smart , unflagging animation . The moving panorama of the storming of Harfleur , and the various passages of the camp and the battle , are alone worth n visit even to the most illegitimate of playgoers , and well repay the rather tedious twang of Mr . Henry Marston , who ( as Chorus ) makes Time hang heavy on his scythe between the acts , for all the beauty
of the language and the glowing picturesqueness of the descrmK The misfortune of Shakspeare ' s historical plays , considere d as r ' plays , is the crowd of minor characters ( in a dramatic sense ) , but yvh ^ fact , represent high-bred and gallant gentlemen , or , to say the 1 ° ' \ human beings , who do not ex-aspirate their h ' s and assassinate the rkvtl ' Now , these parts necessarily filing to the talents of supernumerar who have not the finest ear for poetry in the world ( not to speak of th ^' tuneful voices or their discordant legs ) , whole scenes are literally swamv ^ i You will at once imagine the attitudes so free and unconstrained , the e badinage , the proud and haughty defiance , as we find all these artist ^ phases conceived by that dense array of unacknowledged trao-edia who figure in the playbill and in the council chambers of Henry the M . ftJ and the King of France . J l
Now , having vented my acid dispositions , let me tell you what a finepre sentme , nt Phelps gave us of the King . He seemed to revel in the part " His bearing was kingly in the best sense : brave , generous , and kindly ' and full of gentle dignity : and in the battle , he was Harry to the life ' He gave the celebrated speechs " This day is call'd—the feast of Crispian , " with immense spirit , and carried the house away with him . In the scene with the soldier , the night before the battle , he wore well the humour at once grave and genial , of the disguise . In that charming courtship of Katharine ( deliciously played , by-the-bye , by Miss T . Bassano ) , in the last act , the homely heartiness of the Xing , so racy of the soil of England was never divorced from a certain grace and chivalry of manner , at once simple and refined .
Let me say , that Mrs . Henry Marston was a capital Mrs . Quickly , The description of Falstaff's death , that exquisite bit of pathos , so farreaching in its simplicity , was given with the intelligence of a real artist . I was sorry to observe , however , that a part of the audience , usually so discriminating , turned the pathos into ugliness , and laughed incontinentl y . The three " swashers" were well made up , and not inefficiently acted . Mr . George Bennett ' s reading is always careful and correct , and full of -purpose , but he has a regrettable habit of balking his utterance by dragging the time on the last words of a sentence , and so making the sense
inaudible . On the whole , I preferred the Bardoljoh ( Mr . Knight ) of the three . Mr . Lewis Ball looked Fluellen like a genuine Welshman , and there was a choleric but kindly crispness in his manner , quite enjoyable . Mr . Barrett was a very sturdy and un-stagey Sates . That word " tin-stagey " is high praise ; for it implies naturalness , a rare vision on the stage . On the whole , I again beg all my readers to go to Sadler ' s Wells to see Henry the Fifth . Even members of the Peace Society may go—they are typified in the play by that hyper-logical militia-man , Williams As for myself , I freely confess that I came out of the theatre more than ever convinced that " Upon one pair of English legs "Would march three Frenchmen . " And a very proper and orthodox conviction , too ! J Le CmLT-UvkST .
