London, November 17. It i 3 now more than a month since I put pen to paper on the subject of London frivolities, and during that period a good de;il seems to have happened, in the first place you will be inteiested to he:ir thut our erstwhile colonial visitor, Levy, the cornctist, has, after many years' absence, returned to London, and made his appear aoce at ihe promenade concerts on Thurs day last. The great man only played once. It seems that during his foreisn tour, another "human grampus," known as Howard Reynolds, lias arisen on the musical horizon, and when the pair per formed together on Thumlay, a iickle public had the bad taste to show a marked preference for its latest favourite. At lirst Le?y—who believes himself to be the most marvellous trumpeter of this or any other aR;e —could hardly be persuaded he had heard aright., 'l'he applause, however, proved moat marked, and on Reynolds being efFusivclyV encored, Levy lost his temper, and declined to afford Covent Garden the privilege of listening to him again. The iact|s, the man has—to nse a vulgar expression—" lost his form " alto gether. In America they have no really fine cornetists, and Levy was able to de lude " musicos " into the belief that his powers retained their pristine vigour. Here, in London, unfortunately, audiences are not so easily deceived, and when to pitted himself against a really clever artist like Reynolds he committed an absurd blander. The promoters of the promenade concerts are bringing an action against Levy for breaking his contract, and he will certainly be mulcted in heavy damages. In appearance the fellow is fat, bloated and most repulsive. An overweening conceit has tpoilt him, and he can never a^ain hope to command either the tcrnu or tke applause he once did. Quite accidentally the other day I came across another histrionic personage, who, a few years ago achieved a tine run of success in New Zealnnd. Of coorae you remember Kmily Soldeue, wilh her ample figure aud her frisky ways. Well, her figure is ampler and her ways friskier. The theatre I saw her at was the Alexandra, Liverpool, and the piece or rather the opera, turned out to be "Bocaccio." Emily enacted the hero, and waltzing on to the stage wiih the frolicsome gaiety of a young mastodon, met with a very warm reception. Behind me sat o young Frenchman, and 1 heard him mutter t > his companion, " Mon dieu ! but la Soldene has yon ver grand poncho,1' The .Englishman was scandalised, "Look here, mounseer," quoth he, "you must'nt talk like that. Our girls have waists, I am told, and some of them even plead guilty to chests, but paunches! never." The principal theatrical event of the past fort night has been the production at the Globe of Tennyson's pastoral play " 'Hie Promise of May." This piece was heralded with a great flourish of trumpets, and the first night's audience was' one of the most re presentative and distinguished ever gathered together'within the walls of a play house. In a stage-box sat Mr Gladstone (who is an ardeut admirer of the Poet laureate's), and Boyal personages from the Prince of Wales downwards, were as plentiful as playbills. After this preamble you will be surprised to hear the drama proved a dismal failure, People listened to the first act tolerably, but grew very im patient as the second dragged wearily along, arid in the course of the third, the play was unequivocally gnyed and damned, "The Promise of May," is written in prose of the mostlons»- winded description, and the plot re minds one of half a dozen worn out melodra mas. Here is the story, Philip Edgar, Ksq., artist* philosopher, and atheist, woos Hva Steer, a farmer's daughter, seduces her and deser s her in the old familiar fashion. Six years later he returns and tries it on her sister Dora, who doesn't recognise him, She prattles innocently about dear Eva, whom they had sought one morning, but never found, her little white bed being unslept on—her chamber empty. Unfortu nately Eva returns just in time to save Dora, and then hides with the white haired father of the girls, while the mis creant Philip is seen safely off the preinms by Dora's true hearted admirer, Dobson, A worse constructed stage play I never saw. It is fnll of lot>g soliloquies and heavy " talky talky." Moreover, the sen timents of the hero (or rather villain), Philip, are most atrocious. When Eva asks him to make her an honest woman he stands aghast and calmly bids her " look at the birds, who pair together for a season and then pait." The only bit in the whole farrago of rubbish worth remembering is Dora's song. It runs thus :

" Tho town lay still in the low sunlight Tho hen clucks late by tho white farm gate The maid to her dairy came in from the cow The stock dove cooed at the fall of night 'JChe blossom had open'd on every bough. Oh! joy for the promise of May, of May Oh 1 joy for the promise of May.

" But a red flro woke in the heart of the town, And a fox from the glen ran away with the hen And a cat to the cream and a rat to the cheeso And the stock dovo cooed till a kito dropped

down And a salt wind burnt the blossoming trees Oh! grief for the Promise of May, of May, Oh 1 grief for the Promise of May.

Alter a protracted ran of more than 600 nights, "Patience" shows signs ol •wearing out, and on Saturday next, the 25th instant, Gilbert and Sullivan's new whimsicality (which the papers now an nounce will foe called neither " Perola ". nor " Phyllis " but "Tolanthe") is to be pro duced. The Strand Theatre entirely re built, re-opened last night with John &. Clarke iv " The Heir at Law " and a music al burletta called " Froliques." I have not heard much about it yet. Arthur Matthi aon has acheived a marked success with a farcical skit on the blood thirsty class of melodramas now so ripe which is called "More than Aver." The typical villains are Sir Crimson Fluid and the Lady Agna Toffana whose murderous arm s are thwarted by Kangy i^lo "man Kangaioo." Bow that excellent parody of Hie " man monkey" in " For Ever," poisons some of the charac ters, shoot* others, clubs other?, kills a policeman by making him swallow bis own truncheon and so forth, may be imagined. At last, havine cleared all the dramatis personce off the board,the " man kaDgaroo " commits suicide and as there are no more people lett to play, the curtain necessarily tails. The satire is screamingly funny, and will enjoy a great run without doubt. Two more theatres are to bo opened in London next month. . The "Pandora" (manager, Alfred Thompson) is in Leicester Square.and the " Novelty " in Great Queen street. An oriental opera bouffe by an unknown composer is to be the first attrac tion at the latter house. To-night (l burs day, November 10), the "Romany l'-ye," which has not proved so successful as the "Lights of l,ondoD," will be withdrawn from the Princesses Theal re to make room for a new piece called " The Silver King," of which great things are expected, Charles Eeade's much talked of drama, "Love or Money "comes out on Saturday at the Adelphi, and the Kendalls re-open the St. James's the same night, Gounod's " Kedemption " was performed for the first time in London at the Albert Hall the other day, the composer himself conducting. An enormous audience as sembled to do honour to the occasion, but thepopular verdict is that the work is dull and commonplace; a succes d'estime, in lact. Every day now brings the unfortunate reviewer a large contingent of new books for criticism. The publishing season has indeed pet in with unusual severity, jnve n'le literataie of all sorts teeming particu larly plentiful and of excellent quality. Children nowadays (more especially grow ing boys),are provided with a much better class of story book than their parents ever enjoyed. The tone of write) s like Henty and BaUantyne is far healthier than the namby-pamby " goodineas" of such mis leading nousenee as "Eno, or Little by ?<u,ilc;" and I may here remark that a better present for toys than the bound volume ot ihe " Union Jack " could not b? found. • . A very delicate subject Las been most wonderfully handled bylMrs Oliphant in a short s'ory called " Tb£ Little Pilgrim in tbe Unseen," which-treated a sen«ation when it r S n£t'i?'iAFvi arecl 'n Macmillan 'a "" JOHN KNOX/k .uvJ. .-. ■&& ,'...■■ ~

mngazinc. The tale is nor pnblislied aeiiurately as a hih;ill volume, at 2s Oil only, and I advise iinyose who cares to spend arcstfulhalf-lionro'iaSnnday evening to try it at once. Mra ' liphant contributes tho new serial to Macmillan next year. It commcncctl in Uic isovombßr number, and ii (wiled " The Wizard's Son," Kobert Buchanan, whp»o " God and Hie Man" ia so popular with novel readers, supplies the " Goutlemun'a Magazine" with a story to run through ISSIi. It is entitled " Tha jNhv aberlard," and " Maid of Athens" is to bo the name of Jantin McCarthy's novel iv "Ucl^rnvia." " Time " will rely on a romance by Fran cillon; "Tinslcy's1"' Under a Ban," by Mrs Lodge, and "The Wateia of Marali, by John Mill; Mid "Good Words" on "'AH iv ii QunlcJ Ufoi.ii," by Walter Besaut. Tlie Chrislmai nnni'.ali :ive decidedly below the mark, Unix us rcaards novaity and interest. Miss Braddon's story " I'lower and Weed," which forms the r»lc attraction of " The Mistletoe Bouuh " has not a singlo cjood point to make it worth reading. Tho ato>y could have been told in f jnr papc-i and shows signs of being a magazine aiticlo padded out to lill up spucc. Mr Uowling's " Lx^t Cluistmas live" (Xinaley's Annual), is more exciting than "Flower and Weed, but it seems a pity to give a shilling for it wlion me can get much the sumo stud' in the "London Header Novelist'1 fur ;i penny. Perhaps tho best of a bad lot is tho ''15elgravia," winter number, though I have no doubt Mr Boiant'a Christmas story for "All the Year Bound," which is to be oiled "Let Nothing You Dismay," will bo worth re.ul ing. In journalistic cliclea people are talking a good deal about the success of the " rictorial World," which has achieved a guaranteed circulation of one hundi ed and fifty thousand since Dulziel Bros, took it in hand. The "Pictorial" n now quite the he?t of the illustrated journals, nnd unless the "Graphic" improves considerably it will find itself ineoutincn ly muffed out. The coloured picture fjivtn away with thf Christmas number of the " Pictorial " is being bought up right nnd Lit, and out does anything of the sort ever before sold for a shilling. 1 hear the " Illustrated News" folks say the "Pictorial World" costs more than sixpence to produce, aud that the Dalziels aro mining themselves. Of course time aleue can allow whether this is true, but meanwhile all who care for good art cheap should take in the " I'ic torial World."

"The Promise of May."

TIIE TOTAL FAILURE OF ALFRED TENNY SOiS'S NEW PLAY IS LONDON.

(Cable to the "N, Y. Herald.")

LONDON.Nov, 11,18S2.—Alfred Tennysou s new prose play, " ihePrumiteof May," waa produced to-night before a crowded and brilliant audience at die Globe Theatre, It is impossible to treat seriously a play which deals with a harrowing story of seduction and death and scuds tlie audience home convulsed with laughter. But sucb v tho melancholy fact. Before the rising of the curtain Mr and Mrs Gladstone and Miss TeDnyson entered a box. The audience immediately burst into applause, to which the Piemier bowed bis thank?. The gnds listened impale.illy to tue o chestral piv lude, being evidently in do wood for des criptive music. The cast of this "new and original nut c dranii," emitting the minor parts, was as fo lows :— Farmer Steer Jtr Cameron Dora Stcar, his daughter....Mrs Bernard Becro Eva Steer, hia daughter Miss Ormsby Farmer Dobson Mr Charles TCelly Philip Edgar Jlr Hermann Vexin The story cau be told in a few words and the fever tlie better. 1 hilip Ed«ar, a young gentleman with atrocious, socialist, free thinking sei.timcnts, comes to S.'eer's happy homestead, aud de.-pite ihe suspicion batrsd of Farmer i-'ob-on, Dora's admirer, seduces Eva and abandons lier. She dis appears, leaving a letter expressing her in tention of drowning herself. Six years elapse, during which Dobson'd sait to Dora has not improved, when i dgar, with the addition of a slight moustache and beard " grown during my travels abroad," re turns to the farm and give 3 himself out as aMr Marrold. Ho shows a newspaper to Dora announcing the death of Philip Edgar. "'Tis true, he says aside; "it is my father's death." lie makes love to Dora, whom, In violation of hij pronounced obji-cticn to matrimony as to nlUfl'etc institutions, he intends to wed by way way ot compen-ation for her sister's seduction ; but Eva, who had not drowned herself, has returned, and overhenrs the free-thinking gcntlemm's declaration of love to. Dora, recognises him, and having previously informed the audience that the doctors say her health U affected, falls dead, exclaiming that she forgives h'm. Dobson, whose previous attempt on Edgar with a pitchfork waa fiustrated, now ap pears with a big stick, and is told by Dora that he is, after all, the better gentleman, and Is requested to see the freethinker off the premises. Such is the main plot of this unfortunate piece, which, from first to last bas com pletely miased i.s aim, Mr VeziD, as the free lover, a sqrt ot socialist Hamlet, de livered appaling soliloquies ngainst matri mony, a future sta'e, and the whole exist ing basis of S3ciety, regardless of the hili arity of the audience, Mrs Becre and Miss Ormaby did their utmost to inve.-t the Inck less rnstic daughters with tenderness and charm. Mr Kelly gave a fine and manly delineation of the honest farmer, but all struggled in vain against the inherent weakness of *he incidents and total lack of dramatic construction of a play which not even the author's illustrious name pre served from failure. ANOTHER CRITICISM New York, Nov. 19. — The "Tribune's" London oabla says: Tenny aon's "Promise of May " met and deserved a more contemptuous reception than any play of recent times, The "Standard," In lately applauding the play and speaking ot American criticism about Langtry, com plained of English timidity in dealing with celebrities; but the critics, without exception, condemned Tennyson's piece, agreeing that it was a crnde conception, clumsy in structure, weakond often puerile in dialogue, and totally devoid of dramatic quality. The play was received on the first night from beginning to end with derision.

The Next German Empress.

I'BISCra VICTORIA AND THE MANNER IN WHICH iHE EMPL .YS HER TIAIIf.

(Berlin Cor. "London Telegraph.")

It is not every friend of monarchy who appiovei tho-e traditions which, ay in the house of Hoheozollem, exclude the heir apparent and his consoit from participation in nearly all tho important affaire of the nation, and render it extremely difficult for them to dcvel"p and to manifest aucb special «ifta us they posse s for acquiring the affections of iheir future subjects. The failing health ot the Empress :md the Emperor's great age ac, however, at pre sent giving an oppoitunity to the Crown Piince and Princess for showing in how high a degree they are endowed with all those qualities and masters in all those arts that insiire popularity to princes. In welcoming the Crown Prince of Austria and his young spouse on their first visit to the German Couit, Prince Frederick William and our Princess Hoyal are dis charging a duty fjr which they are eminently fitted, and which the cordial relations subsisting between the imperial families of Austria and Germany render a genuine pleasuie for all concerned. During the days preceding the imperial visit the Crown Princess of Germany has been receiving deputations and jvisit ing several hospitals and schools, Catholic and Jewish, as well as Protestant, and charitable establishments, giving proofs everywhere of a thorough and uncommon knowledge of the art ot nursing, the neces sity of ventilating, and all those brauches of hygiene culture in which England nx cols the rest of tne world. In tho " Vol skuchc " of a ladies' association she tasted the cheap and good soup made for tho poor, received a report from medical men on ex cellent results obtained by sending pule and sickly town children into rural retreats, or, as Germans designate them, holiday colonies, and complimented the citizens of Breslau on the liberality with which their charities have been eodojyed or wore kept up. On another occasion she attired her self in the attila of her regiment, the Black Hussars, and defiled with her men in front of the JEmperor, first in slow and then in quick time. On Thursday last when the Crown Prince with the Count AJoltke and the latter's designated successor, Count VPaldersec, at his side, was witnessing the manoeuvres from the supposed enemy's camp, Princess Victoria led her regiment at full canter to an attack upon his position, eliciting from her husband tlie remark that "this was the first time in his life that she had figured among his adversaries."

It ia well known that Pure-bred Stock aro more easily fattened, come to maturity earlier, produco better beef, and realise hlghor prices than the ordinary class of stock. This fact, which is so siKiiiliciint to breeders and dealers iv cattlo, haa ot lato years induced a constant and active demand for pure-bred stock in England, America, and the Australian Colonies. In view of this demand for pure-bred cattle, and tho large and Increasing area of land which ia annually taken up (ov grazing purposes all over New Zealand, and tho vast quantity of cattlo required to stock tho same, tho Directors see at onco a ready market at good prices for their stock, and they beliovo tho Company will bo able to pay early and continuous dividends from their ordinary operations in tho salo of utock, without relying upon any protlt from the in creased value of landed property, whioh is here after referred to. ... ~ Tho Directors confidently anticipato that tho Frozen Meat Trade cannot fail to open a practi cally unlimited market for Now Zealand beef and mutton, and will Rivo to stock-grazing interests in New Zealand an impetus which must ultimately teiid to tho great advantago of this Company. • Tho whole of thn Pedigrco Herds before mentioned, tho Clydesdale Horses and Sheep are well-known, and consist of first-class im ported stock (judiciously selected by tho best judges, without regard to cost) and their progeny. exhibited they havo re ceived tho highest prize*. Tho celebrated Shorthorn Bull " Duke of Newcastle." tho pro perty of tho Auckland Agricultural Company, was awarded First nnd Champion Prize at the Intercolonial Exhibition at Sydney for tho best bull of any breed, for which tho whole of the Australasian Colonies competed with imported and Colonial bulls. This bull and many of his progisnyaro among the herds proposed to bo purchased. The Hereford.! aro deserving of special mention. Five hundred and forty-live in number, they form the largest herd of puro Herefords in the world—their progeny have always met a ready and remunerative sale. Tho land proposed to bn purchased by the Company for carrying on their operations con sists of well-selected and suitable stations, where the- breeding of pure cattle has for many years past been successfully conducted. These properties have also been selected with a view to their future increase in value, and from this source alone the Directors anticipate the Com pany will derive considerable profit. Eleven hundred and forty acres of tholnnd acquired are so near io the City of Auckland as to entitle them now to be classed as Suburban Lands and they must speedily advance in value ,witli tho rapid development of tfeu city. The value of tho Freehold, leasehold, and Stock hag ".icon fixed by Messrs Alfred Buck land and Win. Aitkon at tut sum of £161,353 Is (id. Tho Directors, after the valuation was fixed, induced tho vendors to make tho important, concession of leaving nne-half of the purchase money secured upon the property at livo per cent, Using thoroughly satisfied with tho prospects of the und-rtaUiuir. tho vendors have reserved to themselves nearly one-half ot tho chares in tho Company upon equal terms with tho shares now ottered to the public.
