but the one dramatic merit necessary to fit it for the stage . However , the apparently unpromising theatrical experiment was tried ; and , thanks to George Sand's delicate and artist-like treatment of the subject , in the first place , affd to the excellent acting of the Odeon company , in the second , Francois-Ze-Champi as a play , achieved the success of the season at Paris . The experiment , which was a hazardous one , even , in France , has just been Tepeated under doubly perilous circumstances , in England . Francois-le-Chanipi has been summoned to appear and speak English 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 5 and , still more extraordinary , has been heard 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 have 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 . .
THEATEES . Most English readers of George Sand ' s charming little PastoTal , Franfois-k-Champi , must have been somewhat astonished when they heard , a few years since , that the authoress had turned it into a play . The story had every merit
But , with all its defects of story , Fran $ ois-le-Champi belongs , by virtue of its " exquisite literary treatment , to a play of the highest class , and its production at the Adeljphi is an era in the history © f Mr . Webster ' s management . Apiece of extravagance , in which Mr . Roxby puts his head through the hole of a work-table , and plays the " dummy" upon which milliners make and exhibit caps , has been produced at the I / jtceubi . In other directions , the theatres are " wrapped in the awful lull" which precedes the Christmas Pantomimes .

CORN MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday Evening , Dec . 15 . The arrivals of "Wheat during the week , both of English and Foreign have been very moderate , and the extremely dull state of the trade , which we have have had so frequently to report of late , lias given , way to one of greater firmness . English Wheat has advanced and old Foreign is in great request at Is . to 2 s . over the prices current last week . There have been hardly any arrivals off the Coast . A cargo « f Saidi Wheat has Been sold at 51 s . cost , freight and insurance and Mazagan Maize was taken at 4 Ss . fld . but there are now buyers at 46 s . There has been a fair supply of English Barley , bat prices have not declined further , and in some instances a slight advance has taken place . With moderate supplies of both Irish and Foreign Oats , the downward tendency has been checked ; but the demand is slow . Beans and Peas have met a dull sale at rather lower rates .
