      "ber of honest , hungry , and perpetually open mouths . For these reasons—it is deplorable they should be so peculiar in society—plus having been at Eton to school , the genteel world hare decreed Mr , Kean a genteel testimonial . If it -were only among the possibles to get Mr . Smith into Eton , he -would surely be deemed worthy of a testimonial too !

      O J ? dramatic novelties proper there hare been few during the ¦ week . Mr . Kean has revived the" Corsican Brothers . " with all the care and finish of its first adaptation under his direction . His own peculiar style of acting the twin Dei Tranchi has long , no doubt , been familiar to our readers . It is now no less refined than it ever was , and . a very full house heartily appreciated the exertions of the manager and his able aids , Miss Daly , Miss Heath , Miss Leclercq , and Mr . Walter X . acy . The latter artist should be especially noticed for his Chateau Renaud . We cannot here refrain from expressing a hope that the triumphs of Mr . Kean on these boards may be worthily wound up with a last repetition ( by the English creator of the part ) of " touisXI . "

      OLYMPIC THEATRE . The benefit of Mr . W . S . Emden , the respected . manager of the Olympic Theatre , is announced to take place on Saturday , the 13 th inst . The dramatic programme of the evening comprises " The Porter ' Knot , " " Retained for the Defence , " together with other entertainments , which , collectively , cannot fail to ensure an amount of patronage to Mr . Emden , commensurate with his merit in his responsible capacity . The marriage of Mr . Albert Smith to Miss Mary Keeley , on Monday last , has been welcomed with extreme gratification by a large circle of admirers , and , we believe , we may add , / riends . The Chinese exhibition closed , for a season , on Saturday , and our

      old entertainer will furbish up . during the honeymoon the old characters and scenes that never fail to please his audiences . He scouts the notion of in-. structing against the grain , and inscribing over his proscenium the old dulce est desipere in loco , means , he tells us , so far to pander to the passions of the million , as to give them always something amusing — -sometimes , perchance , something new , but never anything dull , flat , or stale . He has found , by long experience , that attempts at tuition make the entertainer feel foolish , and the entertarnees yawn , so he means to steer clear , he tells us in his valedictory address , of all attempts to be grave , and to wash and wear his good old livery of mptley as long as there is a rag of it left to hold together . To our mind he is well advised .

      MADAME TCSSATJD S . No sooner does any man or woman obtain celebrity , no matter what position in society , than immediately ah effigy is enshrined in the Pantheon in leaker-street , and the public become intimately acquainted with the personal appearance of the original . A few days since the statue of the Baron Poerio was added to this interesting collection , and now that of the patriotic general , Garibaldi , is to be seen there . This last-mentioned effigy is a remarkably fine specimen of the art of modelling , and is really felicitous in the flesh tints of- the complexion , and the outline of features and limbs is full of character and of the animation of actual existence .

      HOUSE OF COMMONS . RESERVE VOLUNTEER FREE SEAMEN BILL ; On the motion for going into committee on this bill , Lord C . Paget said he took that opportunity of entering into some explanations relative to the bill . It was true they had increased their coast-guard , but it amounted to less than 4 , 000 men . There was also a coast volunteer force , which , however , many persons , and amongst them the commission which inquired into the subject last year , greatly doubted , would be found an efficient force in a case of emergency . By the arrangement that existed in France , there was always a reserve for the navy , and . there was always a body ready for action when required . The Royal Commission recommended that there should be a force of 30 jOOO royal naval

      volunteers who should receive a retaining fee of 61 . a-year , from which a deduction was to be made to provide for pensions payable at theage of fifty-five years at the rate of 6 d . a day . The bill was based on that recommendation . In case of war it was proposed to call these into active service , and they should be liable to serve in any part of the world for three years , during wliich period the Government was to have a claim on their services . It was proposed to render the royal naval service so attractive to the merchant sailors as to induce them to enter , and to regard a dismissal from it as the greatest punishment . —Mr Lindsay said if he was satisfied that the sum proposed to be voted would effect the object contemplated he would agree to it cheerfully , but he was of a dilFerent opinion . —Sir C . Napier gave the Admiralty credit for being now sincere in their desire to adopt

      necessary , steps with reference to the Royal Navy and they were going to- work in ' good earnest . He considered , however , that there might be some alterations introduced which would be of great benefit , and which would render the condition of the men in the Royal Navy more comfortable , and the service more attractive . The objection to the . clause in the bill by which it was provided that at the expiration of ten years the reserve volunteer corps should receive a pension even in time of peace , because it was not equitable to place this force on the same footing as those engaged during war . —Mr . F . Baring approved generally of the bill . —Sir J . Elpiiinstone supported the bill . — Mr . Cardwell explained some of the details of the bill , which he supported . The House went into committee on the bill .
