TifEATARI.I COMIT CiRnEW. Afer the admirable performance of the Tragedy falella. r this Theatre 'aft night, an attempt was Aide to r Aft the fpirits of the "woebegone" audience by tt a introduttion of a new Farce, or rather what t e French would call une petite Contedie, entitled, Too Friead'y ly Half, the produaii.n of a Gentleman, who, we u nderstand, wrote it limply as an experiment, in order to afcertain what might be done to relieve the public ear from th- inceffant reiteration of found "rollout fenfe, by calling into action the pecular ta lents of two or three leading performers, capable of keeping attention awake for about an hour, without the aid of either fiddles, flutes, or hautbois, by the mere exhibition of prominent charaClers, which were thus can : _ _ Sir Matthew Meddle General Vanguard Colonel Clairville Bluntway . Faddlle - Lady Wrangle Mr: MCNDEN. Mr. BLANCHARD. Mr. BRUNTON. Mr. WADDY. Mr. FARLEY Mrs. MATTOCK& , . In this attempt the Author of the piece has not been altogether unfuccefsful, though it noffeffes little or no plot, and is in no fituation as we have hinted, broadly farcical.—A Sir Mattkew Meddle, !attained by MUPIDEN, in his beft manner, is the central figure of the groupe : he is renrefenred as an officious difpen.: fer of benevolences to all who may or may not nand! in need of his affiltance. Of the path of happinefs and! ' . prokerity, he, in his own opinion, is in poffeffmn of I thennly true chart ; the confequcnce is, that all who i - • f o lhiw his advice are lure to be mined, as.thofe who - ditiemble with him, and purfue their own, are to facceed , This charaaer, though well conceited, is not altogether new to the Stage, but it is f fketched in a maflerly llyle.— Among thole- viho are the dopes of hi, not unamiable folly, is an amo. rolls widow (Wrattsk) who, harraffed by law.fuits, would gladly fi .d ':‘lace in the arms of a young. bufband (Golone/ • lairville), the nephew of Sir Mat thew whom the latter u.ould perfuade to quit the moirary profeffiori tor the mo-e philofophical enjoy ments r f rural life.—The relulr is, that the widow is left to leek revenge for her dif.tppointment in law, , and the Colonel efcapes further perfecution in the endearments of a wife of his own chuffing. It i needlefs to Itate, that the Lady Wrangle of Mrs. Mar 'PCKS was every thing mar the author could ex pa. &mica Ain and Faatey alto did ample I j ottice to General Vanguard a man of mere military jargon. and Fiddle, a coxcomical valet to Clairville BRUNTON (annoyed the charater of the Colonel with cafe and 414;4 and Wimpy was not unfu: cefsrul in delineating the fatincal landlord of a faill'onable hole). The piece, though it may not 1 nliirnately ,‘ pleafe the million," went off laft night with coufiderable applaufe. IRURY•LAMI. The Drama of the Travellers was pet formed, for the firft time this feafon, lalt night. The attraftion of tbe beautiful mufic of this piece was fo powerful, that the houfe was crowded At an early hour. BRA HAM was in fine voice, and Mrs. MOUNTAIN fling with her ufual fweetnefs and &ill. The audience had, however, to regret the abfence of Mrs. BLAND, who was taken fuddenly ill. An apology was made Fa ber, and her part was, at that very &oft notice, filled by Mils KELLY. The charader of the Mar itistiefi of Merida, which STORACI ufed to perform, was very well fultained by Mrs. HARLowa. PROLOGUE TO THE NEW COMEDY OF i g TIME'S A tiILG TALC" WI/TTIN BY MR. HENRY MDDONII. That " Time's a Tell Tale," you will all allow, A truth each anxious Poet mutt avow. This hour arriv'd, What fears, what doubts deftroy The fabric of his vifionary joy! Startling, he reads alarm in very face, Which threatens ruin, downfal ; and difgrace. Hope's drooping pinions fcarcely cleave their way; The buds of pfomife wither and decay; Whilft all the hafclefs ftrudtures of the mind. Like dreams diffolv'd--" leave not a wreck behind." How (hall the Prologue tlan, in fuppliant Strain, Plead for your fuffrage, or your fa"our gain Weak the attempt!—of confidence bereft, At teat one manly, bold appeal is left: A plea, to you ne'er yet in vain prefered— The Charter of our Freedom...to be beard I Theo if ftern Juftice can afford no plea To mitigate the rigour of decree, We hand prepaid the fentence to admit, And boaft at leaft—the ccurage to 'mini!. In fuppliant verfe we alk no Critic (pare The facred tafle allotted to his care ; Ent own the Critic's effice wall apply'd, A frowning friend, but an unerring guide; Healthy, tho' bitter—wholefome, tho Interco. Like Whiter's froft, molt karching when moft cleat. If, while our Author aims his feeble blow, To lay the follies and the vices low; Erects that thro' the calm of focial life, Sow the rank feeds of bitternefs and ftrife You fhoutd approve—he'll feel a Poet's fires 'Should you tondenn—refpedtfully retire. During the performance at the Liverpool Theatre ette night lafl tireek,, the audience were thrown into a areadiul confiernation by the conduft of one of the performers, who being much intoxicated, (truck the Prompter with a fword on the back part of his head, and futlured his fkull. The aggreffor is now in tufiody. Monday night, as the Union coach arrived in th:.. :ud of the George Inn, Sunderland, from Durham, %here it had been repairing, it was found to have toly three wheels on ; the far hind wheel was found rest day between Houghton and Herrinuton, fide Wes from Sunderland ! It was never milled by the driver. It is a fad, that a gentleman who formerly figured amongfi people of the fi, It falhion, and through da- Pula, was obliged to fell his cotorniffion in a march in regimen t , is now a paup er o n th e b ox , in one of e lr gaols , for debtors.

Lord Muntgornerie's fox hounds have been very aditely and fuccel‘fully employed by the Members of the Hunt. One day IA week they threw of at Coilftiolm wood, and killed a brace of foxes• I They have been twice out fmee, and had excellent fport. On Tuefday fe'nnight, a fteeple chafe was rnn from Ballybrophy, in the Q2een's County, for fix miles acrofs the country, between Mr,.

At flatting, 5t04 on Mr. WHIT, who won eafy, though carrying 71b. over his weight. This race was run in 20 minutes and it feconds. It has been Rated that a mare, the property of Mr. HOWARD, of MargaretAreet, was backed to trot 16 I miles within the hour, to carry feather weight ; and the fame was undertaken yefterday near Slough, not withflanding the unfavourable Rate of the weather. Such, however, was the Rate of the roads, and the fogginefs of the morning, that it was very much Agana the performance; and the match was refigned, after the animal had gone 12 miles in 48 minutes.— The lofs was 501. SPORTING EXTRAORDIVARt. On lag the palrengers in the New Road were gratified in a moll eminent degree by a fingular Fox Chace, which for ten minutes afforded uncommon diverfion. Seve. ral months pall a fine dog fox was feen towards evening, playing in the nurfery belonging to Mr. HALL ; and for fome time parts of lambs and poultry have been found in feveral plantations adjoining his haunts. On Tuefday lag the gardeners affembled, about a dozen in number, and beat the nurfery ; Reyeard, finding himfelf difcovered, made a brut]) along the whole line of the nurfery : being turned, he was making towards the paling, his ulna' road to Highgate and Hampltead, when the owner of Our. ham Cottage unchained his maftiff, who immediately made Reynard take a fecund turn, which being in the face of the gardeners was fatal to his liberty, as he was taken by a gentleman; however he is preferved, and is now at Durham Cottage. He is remarkably large, with a beautiful brunt, and fierce !beyond de fcription. The Marquis of Cot ricrac:Ai, his Malay's Mailer of the Hounds, has given orders that in future two deers are to be brought in the cart, in cafe of one not (hewing fport. On Saturday morning, about ten o'clock, the Duke of CUMIFRLAND, the Marquis CORNWALLIS, and a number of Noblemen and Gentlemen, &trembled on Afoot Heath Race Courfe, for the pupae of enjoying a day's diver fion of hunting. The deer was flatted from the cart immediately on the arrival of the Royal Duke. The Deer ran with great fwiftnefs towards Bracknell and Berkhamflead, making a double back, crolTh3g the Heath towards Windfor Great Park, where he leaped over the paling, and croffed the Parks towards loglefield Green, taking to the left down the hill, and croired the Thames. The fporti men made over Staines Bridge in pnrfnit, and renewed the chafe through the inclofures, by Staines Moor. The deer was taken within about a mile of the town of Staines, after a chafe of upwards of three hours. However much the Prize of 40,0001. now fo dofe on its determination, may engrofs the attention of Fortune's Votaries in general, it ihould not efcape the notice of Adventurers, that every Purchafer, at the prefent moment, of aTicket or Share, will poirefs a chance tikewife of obtaining 'ere the final atm of the depending New Lottery Plan, feveral other prin cipal Prizes well worthy their perfuit, namely, two of zo,oool. each, one of to,cool. nine of i,oool. dec. OLD A4ll Er. Yellerday eleven prifoners were tried, one of whoni wa► capitally cnnvieted, viz. Andrew Magill for Dealing, on the tzth of Septefts ber fall, in the parifh of St. George, Hanover filuare, in the dwcllitg•houfe of Jahn Hatchett, the elder, and Jnhn Hatchett, the younger, a variety of arti• des of wearing apparel, a chef, containing certain papers, 61. in money, and two Bank notes, of the value of 51. each, the property of the laid John Hatchets, the elder, and John Hatchett, the younger. Another count in the indiament Rated the pro- 1 petty to be that of Edward Cheatham, Efq. Mr. GURNEY opened the cafe on the part of the Profecution. He faid, that the indiament with which the Jury were now charged, imputed to the prifoner at the Bar a capital offence, in Dealing property very much above the value of forty Drillings in a dwelling houfe. The manner in which the depredation in this cafe was committed was ingenious and artful ; by whoa) committed, the Jury would have to fay.— Whether or not by the prifoner, who was laid to be a perfon much pradifed in that way. The profecu tors were the Meifrs. Hatchetts who keep an Hotel over the White Horfe Cellar, in Piccadilly. Capt. Cheatham lodged at that Hotel, in an apartment, No. 53. On the loth of September, the prifoner came ►o the fame Hotel, and told the chamber maid he (horrid Ray all night. He was accommodated with an apartment, No. 45, wherein he Dept, nearly over that of Captain Cheatham ; from whence, it was contended, he Role the property enumerated in the indictment. On the tzth of September, after break faft, he went away, and took with him the portman teau and the trunk which he brought to the Hotel. Very (hortly after he was gone, it was difcovered that Captain Cheatham's portmanteau had been broken open, and all the articles enumerated in the indidment taken away. From the manner in which the prifoner went away, fufpicion fell on him, and this the more, becaufe on the outfide of the window where he had flept, Tome bricks were found wrapped up firß in a piece of brown paper, and then again in a piece of an old carpet, of which it was fuppofed he had emptied his portmanteau, and then filled it with the contents of that of Captain Cheatham. Search was made after him, and he was traced to the White Horfe in Fetter-lane, and from thence, with great diligence and care, to the Portland Arms in Berkley. (freer, where he was found by that adive and careful Officer of the Police, Trott, accompanied and aflill ed by Mr. Hatchett. Trott found a key of the fireet door of the houfe where the prifmer lived ; and, c n fearching the room of the prifoner, there were dif. covered a vaR number of duplicates, and, among them, thole which led to the finding many of the clothes of Captain Cheatham, which had been taken out of his portmanteau. And here the Jury would have to confider whether the prifoner was the perfon who committed the plunder ; they would find him poffeffed of the property; that he flept near the apartment from whence it was taken ; that the pro perty was miffing immediately on his leaving the Hotel ; that bricks were found in the apartment he occupied ; and that he had pawned Come of the pro. petty. Then the quellion would be, whether, if he committed the theft, he committed it in fuch a man• ner as to be guilty of a capital offence, or not ? Now, the value was vafily beyond 401. There were two Bank notes of 51. each in the portmanteau, and the whole mull have been taken at one time, and there fore the whole offance was made nut. He would call the witneffes ; and, after they should have given their evidence, he apprehended, the Jury could have no doubt upon the cafe. Mr. John Hatchett proved, that his fon is his only partner of the hotel in Piccadilly, called liatchett's Hotel,which is in the parifh of St. George, Hanover fquare. Captain Edward Cheatham, of the Royal Navy, proved that he lodged at the above hotel for Come time ; flept there on the t tth of September lat. in No. 53. He had in his portmanteau a writing defk, containing two 51. and feveral 11. bank notes, fix guineas in gold, and a great number of letters ; and there was alfo a variety of articles of wearing appa rel. He got up about eight o'clock on the morning of the t zth. He could not fay exadlly when he had teen his writing defk laft, but it was recently, and it was locked. About half pall nine he went up to his zoom ; he miffed his writing defk, and found that hie portminteau had been forced open, and the articles of apparel taken out of it. He law Tome of his pro petty afterwards, and knew it. . . The prifoner being afked whether he had any (ig tinn to put to Captain Cheatham, he afked the fol lowing : 9 4 Have ynn feen the trunk finee you loft it ? A. I have the trunk in my poff!ffion now. QAnd are you confident it is the • , eryfame trunk? A. That is a very extraordinary queftion—to be fare I am ! Have you the key of it ? A. Yes • I have the key of it. Will you have the goodnefs to try to open it, with that key? A. I fancy the prifoner alludes to the writing defk. Prifoner. I mean the writing dell. A. I have the key of the writing defk. QWill you have the goodnefs to try to open it with that key A. You know it has been changed. Lord ELLEHBOROUGI4—You mutt not talk to one 'another; it produces great irregularity. Prifoner—l requefl of the Captain to open the writing dcfk with that key, in order to afcertain poll. Lively whether it is the fame clefk ? A. The lock is changed. LordEssiNßOßOUGH—Prifuner, be on your guard; this feems to allude to another ad of mikondud; you may afk Come queilions by which both may be dit covered. As you have no Counfel to advife, it be comes me to advife you as fuch. Sarah Bilhqp, the chamber maid at the hotel of Meirs. Hatched, proved that the prifuner came there on the loth of September, occupied an apart ment, No. 45, almuft diredly over that of Captain Cheatham, which was 53. She was lure the knew the prifoner; he came there on the night of the. loth, and went away on the morning of the lath of September, having ilept there two nights. When he• came he had both a portmanteau and a trunk.— On the 13:h, the day after the prifoner went away, the fawn on the outride of the window of the vOOlll I *bete he Bept, eight brick ' s, wrapped tip iii a Feat of brown paper and a piece of old carpet. Nobody elk deg* in the room N.). 45', on the tsth of Septet& b.r, but the prifoner ; nor were the tricks in the window befoVe the prifoner came there. When he went away, the porter carried his trunk, and he him felf the portmanteau, to the corner of Bond.ftreet, where the prifoner took a coach and drove off. The Prifoner afked the Witnefs a number of mi nute queftions refpcaing the diflances of the rooms, but nothing whatever to his own advantage, rathet the contrary. He was again aclmonifhed by Lord ELLIMBOROUGH not to afk queflions at random, and to draw forth anfwers which could not ferve William Moff, porter at Meas. Hatchert's hotel, laid, he knew the prifoner—that on the morning of the r nth of Septerhber, he carried the prifoner's trunk ; the prifoner himfelt carrying the portmanteau ; it was pal} nine o'clock. They went to the corner of Bond ftreet, where the prifoner took a hackney coach, into which he put both trunk and portmanteau, and drove off. The Prifoner put fome queflions to this Witnefs g about Whet apartments betides thofe of 45 and 53, and what property were in them, which the witnei conld not anfwer. Jonathan Trott laid, he is an of f icer of the Police, belonging to Hatton Garden. That on the 7th of 08ober inflant, he apprehended the prifoner, at a public houfe in Upper Berkeley-firect. Searched him ; found on him Come duplicates, and a key of the fillet door of the houfe in which he lived. After lurching the prifoner, he went with him, in com pany with Mr. Hatchets, to the prifoner's lodgings, a few doors from the public houfe. The witnefs opened the door of the houfe with that key. He went up one pair of (lairs—nobody was there—went up another pair, there found the writing•defk now pro duced, and a number of papers belonging to Captain Cheatham, which were afterwards delivered up to that gentleman. Found two pairs of flecking' and a towel, marked F.. C. in the fame rooms and alto a book, of the fize of a pocket-book- 1-fe opened the writing defk with a !mall key, which he found on :he prifoner, and which was now produced, and matched the new lock which had been put on the writing dells. There were a great number of dupli cates found—many of which were afterwards deli vered to the prifoner's wife, by order of the Magif trate'. Their which were kept, he now produced.— Thefe were of articles pledged at a pawnbroker's in South.arect, Manchefler-fquare, in the name of John Williams One of them was a duplicate belonging w a naval uniform epaulet. . - Thomas Makiuder, the landlord of the houfe in which thefe things were found by the Police Officer, proved that the houfe was lett to the prifoner at the bar; it was taken by the prifoner's wife, and her mother lived with her. William Moral), fhopman to the Pawnbroker of No. 17, South Weer, Manchetler-fquare, produced satious articles of wearing apparel, fome of which were pawned by the prifoner in the name of John Williams, and others by a woman he underflood to be his wife. On the 22d of September, he pledged a coat, flirt, and handkerchief, for a guinea and a half. On the 25 , h of September, two pair of breeches, a pair of pantaloons, wailicoat, and handkerchief, for 23 'linings. OR the 29th of September, three fhirts, a pair of ftockings, and an handkerchief, and two ravirs.—Some other articles were pledged by a per. fon calling herfelf Mary Williams, whom the witnefs under acted to be the prifoner's wife, and among them a naval epaulet. The prifoner Aced the witnefs whether he pofi. lively recollected his pledging the coat and other u tiles which he enumerated ? He Paid he was not lure of them all ; but he per. fealy remembered his pledging the pantaloons and waiftcoat. The razors were pledged twice in the fame name, as the prifoner always pledged every thing John Williams; did not know exaetly who pledged them; he had no doubt ; however, it was the prifoner. Captain Cheatham then looked on the writing delk produced, and proved it to be hi*, and to be the one which he loft on the 12th of September, out of Hatchett's Hotel. He had had it for feven years. There was in it a figure emblematical of Time, an! Johnfon's Diftionary, and an Almanack. The pan taloons he believed to be his, but the buttons were changed—his were uniform, with anchors, &c. The llockings he was Cure were his, alfo the !flirt and towel now produced. There were in the defk two 51. bank notes, and various papers when he IA lock. ed it up. There were two keys ; the one Captain Cheatham had always the poffeMon of—the ether matched the lock which had been recently put on the defk, and was found on the prifoner. The prifoner addreffed the Court and Jury, laying, My Lord, fince I received the favour of this Court yeherday, to put off my trial until this day, I could not avail myfelf of that favour, although I had a wit nefs to bring forward in my behalf ; for the kindnefs which the Court intended for me was countera&ed, by my being afterwards brought back to be arraign. ed for an alledged crime in the city; fo that I have not bcen able to obtain either Connie!, or any wit. mefs who was to have come forward .o prove that which is the fa& that my wife has, and fo have I, been in the habit of dealing for years in the purchafe and fate of fecond hand wearing apparel. Indeed. all the things Row !worn to have been fo purchafed. If ever 1 have been guilty ~f crime, my wife never knew of it. My Lord, I hand in this Court at this moment, in a mule awful fituation—a fituation that harrows up my foul. Having lived more than 20 years in Weßminfler, in refpettability as an houfe. keeper, with a large family, which I have brought to difgrace, I molt eatnettly intreat your Lordfhip's indulgence to a man whole pride it would be not to be thought guilty of that with which he now hands accufed. I have been three weeks in a cell in Cold Bath fields prifon, and deprived of the means of preparing my defence. Lag Friday I was removed to Newgate. I have anxioutly looked around mein this multitude of perfons, to fee whether there be any to whom Lcan trier for my charaCter ; and I have teen only one, and that is M r . lf aac B a k er, who has known me for many y e ar s; t o hi m t h erefore, with his leave, I beg to appeal ; an d to pray that you r Lordfltip may extend to me that mercy, of which my prefent lunation hands in need. Mr. Ifaac Baker laid, he was a vitivaller ; kept a public houfc ; had known the ptifoocr for fivers!
