LORD NAPIER AND THE DRAMA. Mr. STUART, the sub-lessee of Wahack's Theatre, .New York, and Mr. DloN Hanel- OkULT, the actor-dramatist, lately opened a band box of a theatre in Washington, which has boon well patronized there, and promises to Make money for the parties concerned in it. In the last number of the Irish News we find an article on this theatre, partly eulogistic and partly critical; evidently from the pen' of TIIOSIAS FRANCIS MEACIIIER;WiIO, it maybe remember ' ectiately accompanied General Woe. WALKER '(lately of Nicaragua) to Washington, at the time the 4, General" was conveyed to that m4ropelis, by Marshal MINDERS of New York. - We quote the close of this article, relating a circumstance, evidently within McAontin's personal knowledge, which dpes riot show tanrdll.6/ER in a very favora ble light. It runs on thus : "The boxes, Cibiarqu'ette, the dress - circle, every blase was crowded .' - Crowded and musical—mu steal wish the spotting of silks and laces—musical with' the tinkling of bracelets, ear-rings, and all the bright odds arid ends and exquisite trifles of fashimh-musioal with waving fans, radiant chit chat, merriment, sly syllables of delicate scandal, tHrtatio n appropriate comment , and what not be sides. }embers of Congress were there—they ate everywhere in Washington, and everything, It they speak tbo truth 'about themselves—and - ex hi,bited every variety of hue and feature of which the human model is naturally or otherwise sus ceptible. Members of the diplomatic corps were there—Moljna, the Costa Rican Minister—Hal eemann, the Austrian and my Lord Napier, who, with ell' bls reputation for good-fellow. ship and hospitality, had no business to be there. This titled gentleman gives dinners once a week— , plp:u3ant and brilliant dinners—and a ball once a month. He has so much allowed him fur doing so; but on the strength of a public appropriation for convivial isw-gasa - ntebredis ot -ueorar'nena sad a sprightly soul. The invited many of Washington attribute to him these agree able endowments. Wrongfully, however, for Lord Napier is ft.:dose-fisted foreigner. Left to himself —loft to his own resources and instincts—be would be as unfruitful as his native thistle; a little downy, perhaps, but prickly, common, sterile. Jqst think of it: when Bouroicanit set about establishing his theatre down there, the foreign ministers were waited on for subscriptions in aid of the .project. livery one of them replied promptly and generously—every ono of them put their names down for something decidedly bentleome—every one of them but Ole Scotch im portation. He refused. desk was not in Congress,, nor bad be a desk in any of the depart ments. nor was he a reporter on the press, nor so much is a politician out of employment and living inscrutably on hope, and, consequently, was not of sufficient consequence to be seduced with a din ner or a patronizing subscription. Napier turned his back upon the drama, pooketed' his purse, but toned his pooket, and reserved all his loose cash for the good time that's coming. He did more-he did worse. - Hearing that the Russian minister, like the prince of good fellows, as he Universally admitt - edly is had very liberally subscribed towards the opening of the theatre, my Lord Napier called. round and coaxed him to totit'Olairgi iiorS37(ll.o the representative of Ans. iirffithat it would be better to wait and see how the theatre was got up. bow it succeeded, how it was patronised, &c., before the Naplers or the Stoeok els, or any ono like them, went into the enterprise. From Stoeckel's house, Napier glided round to ;garages, and then to the Brazilian 'Minister, and then to Hulsentann—round to all of them. To each.and all he read the earns lesson of prudence, but the theatre was opened in spite of his frozen economy, and long may it wave !" If this be true—and Mr. MEAGILEIL would not Mate it, unless he were certain of its correct !iss—Lord NAPIER is liable to the imputation of being a close-thited gentleman. He had emery right to refuse his own patronage and subscription, but there seems to be gratuitous meanness in making the round of the corps di ptomatique, and urging them to follow his nig gard example. Peyhaps he expected to be admitted to the Theatre on the "dead-head" system ? • In connection with the provision (noticed in our Money article yesterday) in the bill for tho relief of tbo stockholders of the Bank of Pennsylvania, that no director shall be allow ed to borrow money from the Bank, we have to state one fact. No Director of the Bank of England, under any circumstances whatever, can borrow a shilling from that establishment, nor obtain discount for any bill bearing his own endorsement.

"I Ituritani" was performed, last night, at the Aeademy of Music. It lifer from being Bellies most happy production, laboring under the disad vantage of being exoessivelylugubriona, and Over laid with choruses; The oast was very complete: DO Lagrange and Marini as the. lovers, Formes as the heavy father, and Gassier as the vindictive rival. Do Lagrange sang admirably In the ern and second sots, but got hoarse, and screaming to wards the , end. As usual; she eau, moved, and looked at the audience. 'Until she will mita° to think of the audience the never oats be a dramatlo Ringer. Tiberini was in capital voice, singing with delicacy, eweetnesa, and expression. Gassier, who improves ripen aorptaintance, sang very well,. and was the only actor on the boards. He shared the honor of an eni•cro (the only ono demanded) with Formes: This wax the famous Ltberty duet—deoidedly the gem 'of the opera. Tile usual gag of bringing out two flags (the French tricolor and the Americo &stars and etripes, in an English pieced the year 1649) was very Judi clOusly omitted. The public have not yet seen Carl Formes in his full strength, They most hear him as Leporeno, in "Don Gievanal," (lobe produced on Monday evening,) and its "Robert le Diable." , . We have again to remark on the very inferior singing of the female chorus. Their costume was wholly wrong. Puritan damsels, during the Civil War of England, wore not attired as Swiss peasants. The beautiful and appropriate 'scenery used for 'this opera deserves especial commendation. This evening, " L'ltallana In Algeri," and the last act of " Rigoletto" will be performed. Madame D'Angrl, Madlie Claudine Cairoll, and Signors Dignardi, Labooetta, Talsnelli, Gassier, end Rocco will appear. We would suggest that there be some light on the stage, during the " Rigoletto" performance. 1-rogramme of the public rehearsal of the Ger menia Oroheetra, this afternoon, at three and a half o'clock, at the Musical Fund Hall : I.

CITY POLICE.—JARtany 29 [Reported (or The Trebel A Lawiran sor.n."—Mr. D. L. Wolford, a gentleman of the law, whose willingness to make money has always exceeded his ability, was seated in bis office on Ninth street, on Wednesday morn ing, when a tall young man, pretty well dressed, entered with an expression of disoomposure on his countenance. Mr. Wolferd Invited the stranger to take a seat, and, In the hope that he had foand a client, eagerly inquired if he could render him any service. old gentlemen , " sold the visitor, "the fact is I've coma to put myself under your protec tion. My name Is James Hewitt, and I'm heir to a very nice property-850,000 in hank, a blook of houses on Pine street, and two of the beet farms in Chester county. But my half-cracked old daddy, when he died, left for my guardian one of the ens wedeln old rascals that ever hopped, and he's bent, heart and liver, on getting my property. I'll be twenty-one to-morrow—if I live; but I've disoo vexed a plot: my old &mandrel of a guardian in tends to have me murdered toulay—like the chil dren in the woods. There are several of his agents, awful blood-thirsty-looking villains, watching for ..4 ode =meet ; and I want you to lot rue stay here, for safety, till to-morrow, at which time I'm going to bring suit against that old rogue for plot ting to kill me,' and for the recovery of my for tune." So fine a prospect of 'litigation caused Lawyer Welford's phis to brighten up immediately ; and ho assured Mr. Hewitt that it would afford him the greatest pleasure to eheller him and to see that strict justice was done to him. It was now about 12 o'clook, and the legal gentleman ordered a neighboring restaurant a fine luncheon, in the ditonesion of which the new client displayed a oharuting appetite. Mr. Hewitt then borrowed a dollar from his future counsel and wild a visit to a hotel next door; on returning from which he threw himself on a lounge in Welford's office and retrained there In a torpid state until the next morning. When James awoke, Mr. Welford produced a decanter of excellent French brandy, and supplied the young man with several bumpers, In order to prepare him for business. Then the lawyer im vited him to oelebrato his twenty-first birth-day, by signing a bond of $2,000 to indemnify his coon. eel for all risks and expenses which might be un. dertaken in his behalf. Hewitt complied with the greatest cheerfulness; but, Just as Mr. Wolford was chuckling over his own diplomacy, an elderly man rushed in, exclaiming: "Jim, you ungrateful rascal, have I found you at last?

BY MIDNIGHT -MAIL. Oisitti Copy Of the ittate Constitution of Ore- [Oorreepondenee or The Prels] WASHINGTON, Jan 29, 11358 gen. Lane, the delegate from Oregon, resolved, by the last ateauter Prom California, the official oopy of the Constitution of State Government, adopted Is.) , the people of that Territory on the second Mon day In November last. It is stated in letters from .prominent men there that the public sentiment is almost unanimous in favor or its acceptance by Congress. In the ease of Oregon 'there was to enabling act passed by Congress, although efforts were made during the last and the preceding Congress for that purpose. For three years the question of a State Government was ziOnAlttn4 at each annual election, to the people; twice it was decided in the negft tlvii, but In June last it Vlll3 decided in the affirms. tire by a large majority. The Constitutional Con ventlen assembled at Salem on Monday, August nth, 185 d, And the Constitution which' was framed Was, without nay objection, submitted to the' ratilioation or rejection of the people. There Was a general desire that the people should decide on the different questions whioh were in oontro verey, as well in Oregon ae io Kansas, and Inetend of the deceptive echedule of Calhoun, it was so provided that the will of the majority could be %Ily and fairly esproieed. In Oregon the voting Ie OM; rote, and it Ia interesting to notice the terms of submission in view of the eireamstanoes surrounding the Kansas Lecompton •Constitution,' *Mob it is understood it will be attempted shortly through Congress: ' , Section 2d of the schedule. Ench elector who I offers to vote upon this Constitution shall be asked by the judges of election this question: Do you vote for the Constitution, yes or no? and alto this question: Do you vote for slavery in Oregon, yes ur no? and also this question : Do you vote for free I aegrees in Oregon, yes or no? and in the poll hooks shall be oulamns headed reepootively, Con .stitution yes,' Constitution no,' ' Slavery yes,' 'Slavery Free negroes yes, ' Free unload no,' to., do." .ere•wee.no difficulty experienced in voting tinotly Kati three questions, and it is needlosS to argue the questlon ; Meade to eustain the po sition era so many ; Palpable and strong, that if Hui lame fairness had been dealt out to the people of Kansas, the question which now vases the Ad tail:detention, Congress, and the people" of this 'country,' would long before this hour have met with a speedy adjustment, and Kansas, as a State, have been marching rapidly upon the high road to property. It is probable that Oatmeal Lane will eubmit this copy of the Constitutfon of Oregon directly tothe House of Representatives, inetead of having it communlos.ted through the President. It will, in either event, be referred to the Committee on Tereitories. The election for State offloore will not take place before June next, by which time Congress, it is supposed, will endorse the action of the peo ple there. The feeling in Congress grows each day stronger In favor of a volunteer forte against Utah, over the measure which has bean proposed for the addition of, new regiments to the regular army. Even if the regular force be Increased, it will be done, I have no doubt, according to the plan of 0 eneral Davis, of Misslqsippl, by increasing the number of roan laeach company. The reports of Col. Cooke's disastrous limos in his advance toward Utah have created a profound sensation, and something, it is admitted, must be done promptly for the relief of that command and the force of which It is a part. Several hundred thomands of dollars were to day paid to mail contractors in treasury notes. X. Y.

The subject is now before a oommitteo of the 'House for action. The use, therefore, in du plioating the matter Is not apparent. Nevorthe lesf, a majority voted to Impend the roles to take the matter up, but, it requiring a two-thirds vote, the motion failed. The marital state of the Commonwealth must be in a deplorable condition, if we are to judge from the number of applications for divorce before the Legislature. Upwards of twenty have been read up to this time—from Philadelphia, Fayette, Union, Perry, de.—and the cry is edit they coin.. That tho Legislature will grant the half of tivern I cannot believe ; or, in the event of their passing the two Houses, I have little doubt but that Governor Packer will apply his veto. Previ• petitionsof this description upon the Ales of the Legislature were t. thick as autumnal loaves in Vkllambrosa;" but that faithful chief magistrate set his lace against suels applications, until they had nearly ceased to be m+(10. The courts of the Commonwealth ought to be empowered to act in all eases of divorce, (they now have jurisdiction in more than half that are usually sent to Harris burg,) for at home the parties are known, while hero action must be taken upon second-band evi dence and representation. I am informed by an old member of the House that his experience has been, that a largo majority of those applying for a release from the bonds of matrimony, are °M ama of other States, who come here for the mere purpose of such a release, and often beceuse they are strangers to the body that in to decide on their petition If it were less easy to get rid of the marriage contract, (hero would b. more dixtration exeroised by young men and maidens—and aid mien, too—who, acoonling to the testimony, often rdsb madly into matrimony, •' and take no thought of the morrow." On s resolution offered by Judge 801 l to Inquire into the means, if any are required, to compel tho city of Pittsbargh to pay the interest on her bonds, de., a lively debate sprung up among the grave and reverend Senators. Bell supported his redo lotion In a speech, and WAR replied to by Dr. E I), Gassam, who repudiated re:sudiation, and tried to hold the Democracy of Allegheny county reepon• Bible for It. Bertram A. Schaffer, the modest but talented young Senator from Lancaster, spoke out for the Brat time, and made a fine impression His constituents, as holding acme of than certificates indebtedness, were interested, and from his course minifested to-day, I have no fear but that their !dermas will be vigilantly guarded. . . fdr.

THIRT V-FIFTII CON( RESM, First Session WASHINGTON, Jan. 29, 1858 The Renato was not in session to-day. ROUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Mn. IlowAnn, of Michigan, called attention to the fact that the bill before Committee of the Whole on the state of the Union, providing to Imply the deficiency in the appropriation for printing, had not yet been discussed, but the de bate was devoted to general subjects. That biil bee grown out of abuses, which, if suffered to con tinue, will bankru?t the Treasury ; yet not a eiu glo member of the Committee of Ways and Means or the Printing Committee, hag been able to get the floor to discuss the provisions of the bill, in or der to bring out what has led to this system of abuses. All ought to unite In order to give the mat ter a full investigation. If they devote this day to the country, by thoroughly probinglthis object, their constituents will forgive them for all the time heretofore waded in Speaking of Indians, Mormons, Kansas, and buncombe generally. (Laughter.] Re offered a resolution for extending the debate on the bill to-morrow, and confining the speeches strictly, to the subject. Mr, JOUN COCRRANE, Or New York, objected, for the simple reason that It was too late to insist on such a course, the Committee on the Whole having yesterday distinctly refused, to enforce the rules. Further proceedings on this subject were termi nated by the House going into Committee of the Whole en the etato of the Union on the printing deficiency bill. Mr. Bunwarr ' of Kentucky, was proceeding to dinum the printing question, when Mr. tinazawoon, , Arkansas, sportively raised apoint, ao to whether Mr Burnett was in order, an he was oonlining himself to the enbjeot under ooneideration. MMZIM,i2I=3I - • Mr.Bunverr. eatd the publiii printieg had bees a1t."14 61 as a foUrOft Dr corruption,• through which the lreutiry is robbed ; that gentiemau ono nom the office of publio printer realise prime!) , lams; and that extensive combinations. are formed by whitish the printing is controlled. He did notmake theao charges, nor did be know how far they were true, yet they are made through the press of the eountry; and hence should be fully inveatig!sted by special committees having charge of the subject. It was to him mystery how matter of mystehow the 'pub lic printer could be guilty Of corruption, with the law tegulatlug his compensation, but it was never theless true that the printing of both houses enables the printer to realise immense fortunes. It had been adysnoed, that to favor their election they gave thiassands of,dollars, and freely open their purses during the Presidential canvass. Printing has grown enormously within a few years past. In the Thirty-second Congress it was $950,000. and for the Thirty-third it was nearly $1,700,000, and for the Thirty-fonrth $2,333,000 He, among other citations of extravagance, said that $45,000 had been spent for outs of wood emiehea, squirrels, rules, and other animals eo worthlessly put Into the Patent Office Report. He was for stopping this extravagant drain on the Treasury, by paying for all work oomploted, and dispensing with that not performed. He moved AR amendment to the bill reducing the $790,000 proposed to bo apprepriated to $120,000 Mr. LKTCHER, of Virginia, showed that the amount in the bill was to pay for liabilities in curred by the last two Congresses. Ho alluded to the fact that the publication of Gillia's Astrono mical Expedition coot $115,000, that of the Pacific Railroad Survey nearly $833 000, and Emory's Report $317,000. He hoped that a 'top would soon be put to this extravagant system In moo way. The publication of these and other works amounted to nothing more then that the Govern• meat is to be tho publisher of books which would not tempt private pu blishers. Some of these books were utterly worthless. lie appealed to the com mittee to take the means to put an end for the future to such shameful extravagance. Their con stituents should not be taxed for such unjust end wasteful purposes. Mr. Nese!, of' Missouri, explained that the bill was to pay the amount due under contracts made by the authority of the House. Those contracts should be met, and Congress should not undertake is repudiate them. While the attention of the country Is attracted to the extravagance of the last two Congresses, the present Congress should be held responsible for its expenditures for print ing, and govern its future course by the experience of the past. Mr. CRAW roan, of Georgia, lees willing to pay only for the work already done, to the extent of $310,000, and no more. Mr. NicnoLus, of Ohio, thought It was proper that the House should manifest Its sense as to what should bo done relative to some of the printing, but wee opposed to the suggestion of the gentleman from Georgia. After further debate, the committee rose without coming toe conclusion on the subject. • Adjourned tillMunday. General Walker's Speech at Itlabile WasittNorox, Jan. 29 —Gen.

The duties paid to the Goverment last year were on 335,000,000, while Baron Humboldt calculates the annual yield under the Spanish rule at 123,000,000. The esta blishment by the United States of military poets along the Mexican boundary (says the New York Journal of Commerce) is having the effect to recover large tracts of territory from the incur sions of savages, and entourage a re-occupation of valuable mineral lands long since deserted.
