DRURY-LANB The pleasant Opera of The Load of Me Manor was performed here last night, with the male characters very strongly cast. FANNIN sulThorted that of Sir John Contrast. LISTON was the Moll Hagen, Jonas the Young Contrast, and BRAHAIII the rummy. The great master of song was again in the fall posses. sion of bis unrivalled powers, and sang the music proper to the Opera in his finest feeling and taste. In some of the introductions, as is always the case, he appealed to a higher tribunal than his own judg ment, and was boisterously encored in the 6 1 Blue Bonnets." We do not remember to have seen FARRIS play Sir John Contrast before: it was one of his happy identifications, sunhat it was often very easy to forget for the moment that the various modes of obstinacy, humour, and good nature which be so faithfully repre sented, were not the actual feelings of the man. Jcierra's Young Contrast, if not so novel, is another perfect spe cimen of the art in another way. If it be not an imi tation of human nature, it is no exaggerated picture of many of the things to whom she has just given her form. LisToN's Atoll Flaggon was incomparably droll upon this occasion. Miss Love's Annette, and Mrs. Jessi N's Sophia, ware finely effective. The new Farce of Rhyme and Reason went off with increased spirit, and kept the audience in continual laughter. COVENT GARDEN. The Opera of kosina was repeated at this Theatre last night, when Miss Birmo's exertions called forth .he warm admiration and applause of another audience. She sang 44 Whilst with Village Maids I stray" most sweetly, and was rapturously enco,ed. Independently of the fine extent, power, and quality of her voice, the singing of this young Lady is rendered very delightful by the happy use of those beautiful sotte vote effects which always formed the greatest chasm of Miss STE . rims in her best days. A DELPHI THEATRE. The revival of the Pilot at this very attractive Theatre will no doubt turn to the advantage of the proprietors. In addition to the strong interest of the piece, the audi ence have bebre them every evening a combination of talent seldom seen at a secondary Theatre. MATHEWS, YATES, SINCLAIR, T. P. COOKR, with the actresses Miss GRADDON and Mrs. H. HUGHES, form a dramatic corps of the first importance. The house was well filled last night, and the public appeared to attend with increased pleasure to the old tale of the sea. Long Tows Coffin is, without exception, the best thorough-bred British seaman we have ever witnessed upon the stage, and T. P. COOKL is so exclu sively at home in the part, that we think he has no equal in characters of that description. MATHEWS, as the genuine Yankee Iliglar, Captain Boroughcliffi, has the opportunity of showing off his tact in imitation. In his admirable song, beginning 6 Come, ye bold militia-men," the audience are kept in • continued roar of laughter by his exquisite descrip tion of Yankees drilling for the militia. The following ire a few of his comic incidents, given in his best style : il I have brought the hook (pulls out a book) this time, because there may be no mistake. All who are armed with sticks and umbrellas, fall into the rear. Last time at drill, some of the words of command were left out. Now I have the rules arid regulations, it must be genuine exercise ; we don't like to be laughed t. Ground arms! That's nation well, but let's have 'over again. You, in the rear rank, down with your s—do you want to shoot all the frost rank men? 'You, with the fly fishing-rod, Ay rff, you have no busi ness here.—l beg, Captain, before you go any further, ,ou will make us a little more comfortable in this pompon!. Why, what's the matter? Why, lam so tall, and Mr. Paunch is so short, that he tickles my ear with the point of his bayonet. Do not mind the bayo net; let Mr. Paunch bring his firelock to the tight sit , under.—Fall in 1 fall in, I say ! One has fallen in.— Where? Into the canal, Captain.—Why d. n't you re turn your ramrod? I am going to return it; I only borrowed it this morning.—Shoulder arms !—Very well I very well indeed ! But don't some of ye put your guns on the left shoulder, and some on the right. Be all alike." He was loudly encored. Mrs. H. HUGH as, as Katherine Hoyden, played and sung with great effect. In the duet of is All's well" Miss GRADDON and SINCLAIR were deservedly ap plauded. In short, this nautical dish is so seasoned to the tastes t the audience, that every epicure must be gratified. The Pilot, by GA LLor, is not overlooked. It was much admired by the audience. SURREY THEATRE. Last night young Boasts took his farewell benefit at this Theatre, and left his friends strongly impressed with the excellence of his precocious talent. To show the versatility of his acting, this youthful Roscius ap peared in Hamlet. Rodolph, Looney liladuroller. and all the other pares he has been so long playing in The March of Intellect. He sustained eight or nine characters in a style which would have done honour to a veteran actor. At an early hour the house was crowded to excess. The lower tier of boxes had been engaged several days previous to his farewell, and, in short, a very ardent de sire was manifested on the part of the public to witness the concluding performances of this extraordinary youth. In Hamlet, his conceFtion of the pelt was admirable, and his Looney Mactteolter was a rich piece of comic acting. Barney Brailaghan's courtship, which be in troduced, was loudly encored. The whole of the per. formances gave general satisfaction. At the end of the last piece, andjat nearly one o'clock in the morning, Master Bosun came forward, and ad dressed the audience with great sensibility and feeling. The following is the substance of his address : Ladies and Gentlemen—l come to bid you farewell, but I know not in what terms to do it—(Loud applause). I come to speak of all your indulgence and kindness, but know not how to express my feelings. I would talk of the flower of another land transplanted from its humble bed to your gay and beautiful parterre, where it has flourished under the influence of your fostering hands. I would talk of the spreading of its fibres, and the root you have given it; but lam too poor in words to express the feelings of my heart. I have assumed Many characters, like Proteus, but on this occasion I appear before you in my natural character—that of a little wild Irish boy, sensible of all the amiable encouragement you have shown. Oh that I could place a window here (touching his breast), that you might see what is passing ! You would then know what the feeling of my heart is, when I leave you—(Cheering). Believe me, my kind friends and benefactors, it is with diaculty that I ejaculate Farewell I" He then bowed, under great agitation, and left the stage. The applause continued several minutes aftea the curtain dropped. Whether the powers of this juvenile actor will continue, or improve with his maturer years, it is hazatdous to pronounce ;.but it is quite certain, that at present they are full of attraction, and ought to be retained as long as possible in the theatre in which they have been so popularly exercised. , _ _ npign.w.••••77. ......""=..' DEATH OF MR. BEWICK. It is with great regret that we have to announce the des , h of Mr. Thomas Bewick, the celebrated engraver on wood, who may be said to have revived the elegant art in which he so peculiarly excelled. Mr. B. had long been in a delicate state of health; and died on Saturday morning last, at one o'clock, at his house in West-street, Gateshead, aged 76. Mr. Bewick was born in the year 1753, at Cherryburn, in the parish of Ovingham. He was the eldest son ofJohnßewick, who had for many years the Lapdsale Colliery at Mickley Bank. He early ma nifested great skill in drawing, and at the age of four teen was apprenticed to Mr. It. Beilby, the engraver of Newcastle. In 1775, when twenty-two years of age, he obtained a premium from the Society of Arts for a wood engraving of the Old Hound. He was naturally fond of delineating animals, and his History of Qua drupeds, his first work, raised him to celebrity. This *as followed by his Land Birds, his Water Birds, and his Fables, all of which have gone through several editions. Mr. Bewick, as we mentioned a few weeks ago, very lately visited the metropolis. Mr. B.'s largest cut, and one of the finest, is that of a wild bull of Chdlingham Park. Next to this in point of consequence were his large cuts of the zebra, the elephant, and tiger, all of which were engraved for Mr. Pidcock, the proprietor of the celebrated menagerie. Mr. B. was also di:tinguished for a few engravings on copper of a peculiar style, which were highly prized—for instance, Mr. Hall's Whitley Ox, and Mr. Campbell's Kyloe Ox, as well as the seve ral prints in Conseu's Tour to Lapland. Mr. B. has left unfinished a History of Fishes, and a Memoir of his own Life, with portraits of his friends, and a large cot of an old hunter, which was the last work he employed himself upon, only a few days before his death. In conversation, Mr. Bewick exhibited much of that , quaintness and shrewd in,ight into character which so eminently distinguish the tail pieces introduced in hi. several works. He acquitted himself with credit in the various relations of life, as a husband, a father, and a friend, and he was much and deservedly courted as a social companion. Mr. B.'s bust in marble is in the room of the Literary and Philosophical Society, and will be highly valued now that he is no more.—Dyne Mercury. NOMINATION OF SHERIFFS FOR THE ENSUING YEAR.

It is to be composed of Scotch granite, and when finished will present an interesting and pleasing object, when viewed from Great Russell-street. This is to be the grand feature of the neat improvements. , - SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TA TTE RSA LL'S. Every thing was so dull yesterday, that it would be-useless t.. give any quotation of odds ; we shall, tbereforepmerely state, that all the horses for the tbreeStakes occupy the relative positions held ►y them on Moodily ; and that the only fresh ones brought into the market were Lord Verulatn's two,O.nbre,and e. out of Laurel Leaf, at 30 to 1 each, and 16 to 1 jointly. From what was dropt in the course of the afternoon, it seems likely that the settlement of the Leger bets about Cant (which, of course, will not take place till the settling day for the race) will give rise to many disputes, as ono party insists that they must be considered u play or pay. while the other side avers that they are not so unless there was a specifics. tion as to the horse being named. The point cannot well he settled without reference to the Jockey Club, who will probably provide for lay future occurrence of this kind. Bets are always understood to be p.p. at Tattersall's in opposition to a regulation of the Jockey Club ; but in the case of Cant, the bets were made before the entries for the St. Leger, and as he is not named, k becomes a proper question for reference.

I t —Monday last a considerable concourse of people assembled together at Hunt's Hank and along the Strange ways-road, to witness a feat of pedestrianism to be performed by a person calling himself West, the champion of all pedestrians. He undertook, within four hours, to w.lk tour miles forward, and three wiles backward, to run four miles, to trundle a hoop four miles. to wheel a barrow three miles, to draw a chaise two miles, to pick up a hundred stunts placed at a yard distance from each other with his mouth, and to deposit them separately in a basket, and to hop 100 yards in 50 hops ; allot which, we understand, he performed withift the limited time, though much distressed. He had no remuneration, escept the contributioos of the spectators. YliN FANCY. Tue LATE Fscwrs.—Harry Jones, and Barney Aaron.—Tbe stakes for this fight were given up las t night at the Castle Tavern, Holborn, in the presence of a numerous and respectable muster er amateurs. There was a hint thrown out that Barney bad dune wrong; but Barney's own declaration, uncontradicted by a single probable assertion, set all suspicions at rest, and all bets were paid. Young and Curtain.—The stakes for this fight were given up last night, at the Royal Crown. Ratcliffe Highway, without dispute. Perkins, the Oxford Pet, and Gipsy Cooper.—The Among nt.ny others, is anxious to have a turn with the Pet, and he has agreed to meet Cooper, and make a match for .150 a-side when ever be pleases, to fight within two or three months. ! Ned Savage and Sweeney —Wednesday evening, at Tuts ,Spring's, Sweeney attended, with his friends, agreeably to Ned's in. siltation, to make a fresh match for larger stakes; but when the !time was up, Ned stated that he had published the challenge wish. 'out the concurrence of his friends, and they had not approved of the step, ma that he was consequently unable to proceed with the match. Yes'ereay evening an Inquisiti n was taken at St. Barthaomew's Hospital, on the body of Mr. John Lewes, cheesemonger, late of Fore -street, Cripplegate. Joseph Hoe ton, Superintendant of the W'a•ch, nn Sunday night received information that a smashing of glean had been heard at the back of some houses in Cripple. gate Churchyard. Witness proceeded either, and found the deceased lying on the ground in a state of insensibility. Deceased was restored to his senses; when he exclaimed, that he had suffered a martyrdom, and prayed to GOD to take him out of the world. Jobn Lewis, son of the deceased, stated that he was alarmed out o f sleep, and found his father with a dreadful contusion on his head, and his thi,h broken. The d.• ceased had latterly become very childish. The w ititess thought that he proceeded to the window, under the impression that it was the door, as he imagined that ha was under confinemei t. The Jury returned a verdict of " Accidental Death, by mistaking the window for the door." Some days ago, a person in St. Ninian's, on clearing out an old boiler, for the purpo,e of being repelled, was surprised to find that a mouse had tormed her abode under it, from materials the last that would have been expected. It would appear that the boiler, on being thrown several months ago into an outhouse, was place with the mouth downwards, and that a poor cat. who happened to be below at the time, was made cap• tive. Here the animal must have been starved to death, as nothing was known of the circumstance till the boiler came to be repaired, when the skeleton of the cat was found almost denuded of flesh and skin. On closer in sa ection, it was discovered that a mouse had contrived to get entrance into the boiler—and, in contempt of her ancient enemy, grimalkin, made rafters of his ribs for a habitation—having actually formed her nest in the skeleton, and brought up a family of little ones in the singular dwelling.—Stirling Advertiser.
