• :ye 1. PROLOGUE TO THE 11 1 W COMEDY n or "SMILES AND TEARS." WRITTEN IT lOHN TAYLOR, RIM. SPAKEN IV MR. AISOTT, If, as our Drama's Sov'reign Lord proclaims, The scenic art to copy Nature aims. To *hew the Times their manners as they pass, And Characters reflect as iu a glass, To paint ' he world in all its mode: strife, The gay and dread vleissicodes of life; Here, Via. in .plendour, Virtue bent to earth, Herr pining Want, and here luxurious Mirth, Here airy Fa.lntm, and her sandy shows, Here Maniac:: sportive mid the worst of woes, Then must the Comic Muse front nature stray, When laughter kolds an undivided sway ; For such, alas! are all the scenes around, And where can Pleasure unalloy'd be found! Still Man must struggle with a cheipter'd fate, Whate'er his climate, and whate s er his state; Hence if to-night our Author should appear, 'l'o deviate rashly front his proper sphere; If be suspend the ludicrous and gay, And at the shrine of Pity homage pay, Yet Truth and Reason will his cause defend, And spite of formal custom herd his end. Not from the Drama seek for barren joy, Which, to the mind well-balanc'd soots will cloy; But In the words of en illustrious Sage, Whose works shall moralise each future age, All lighter feelings of the heart forego, Fur useful mirth and salutary woe! The Editor of a Weekly Paper, in announcing the happy accoucheneent of Lady Byron, who has brought her affectionate husband a daughter, congratulates tne Noble Bard on this addition to his works. The Poets of the present day seem more likely to continue their name in this manner, as well as the other, than most of their predecessors ; for it is a remarkable thing, which he does not remember ever to have seen noticed, that hardly any of the tribe on record have left pos. terity. Scarcely a single ancient poet s , from all that can be gathered, had children.—Homer none—Anacreon none ---Pindar n ,, ne=-Theocritus, /Eschylus, Euri pides, Meander, Virgil, Horace, Catullus, Tibullus, I'ropertius, Lucan, Lucretius, none of them any. It appears to have been the same, as far as posterity at least was concerned, with the Italian Poets.— Dante had none; Tasso had none; Ariosto and Tetrarch had natural children—the latter a son who plagued him prodigiously, but the race has failed.— Then for our great countrymen, their posterity seems to have failed in the second or third generation.— Chaucer's did; so did Shakspeare's, so did Milton's. Pope, Dryden, Young, Gray, Collins, Shenstone, Lord Surrey, Ben Jonson, Carew, Denham, Sandys, Waller, Beaumont and Fletcher, Aikeuside, Chur chill, Goldsmith, Otway, Garth, Parnell, Prior, Congreve, Gay, Thomson, Rochester, Butler, Cow.' per, rec. &c.—none of them children. The only families even that have maintained their name col laterally are the Paraells and Drydens—both of them, by the way, Baronets. It is suspected, how ever, we believe, that there may be descendants living of one Poet, whose name would make up for a thousand ;—we mean Spenser. A Syliyanur Spenser, his grandson, in the time of Steele and Addison, who interested themselves for him, obtained from Government a part of the Po.t's lands, which had been lost during the troubles in Ireland. The fami lies of the living Poets, we trust, will be more for tun.,te. All of them, we believe, of any eminence, have got children—Campbell, Coleridge, Moore, Scott, Southey, Wordsworth, and now Byron. Mr . Moore lost a little girl a short time since, but he h4s two others ; and there is something in the idea of. a poet's d.thter, which carries a recommendation with it beyond even the usual charm of the sex. These also are the fines , of titles; and Lord Byron . will ag. grandize his posterity more by his name in the re public of letters, than if he had gathered about it all the ribbons and coronets in the bestowal of Courts. BONV-STREET.—Yesterday several proprietors and drivers of stage coaches were convicted for an ob struction in Piccadilly, on the complaint of Mr. Dean, the Inspector of Nuisances, for the parish of St. George, tianover.square. William Smith was charged with stealing a baker's basket full of bread, from the gate of Carlton-house. The prisoner, although a young man, pleaded po verty and hunger as the cause, saying, he was not able to get any work. In some degree he gave proof of it, as he bad actually no breeches on. MANSION Housa.—Yesterday, James Harris, Joseph Weak, and Judah Pollock, underwent a final examina tion, charged on suspi:ion of breaking open the dwelling house of Mr. Henry H.trt, of Garden-place, Middlesex -street, and stealing from thence various articles of furniture, looking-glasses, bedding, linen, several rolls of carpeting, and a quantity of other goods. They were fully committed for trial. MURDER.—Saturday se'snight, about 7 o'clock, Robert Parsons, a confidential servant of Mr. Med ftn d, stocking•maker, of Glastonbury, Somerset, on his road to Wells, with a cart, was most savagely murdered- by a fellow workman, who beat oat his Oains with the bone of a horse's leg, and also cut his throat. It is supposed the villain meant to rob the deceased of the money with which he was entrusted to pay his master's work people, but in which he was disappointed. He soon after confessed the foul deed, and has been since committed to Ilchester gaol for trial. A vessel is arrived in the Thames from New South Wales, after an extraordinary short passage of less than five months. A dispute is said to have arisen between the Governor and Vet- Gentlemen at the head of the judicial department, which has occasioned a suspension of the judicial business, till the matter in question shall be decided by fresh instructions from home. The point At. issue is, whether or not convict Attornies, transported to the settlement in virtue of legal sentences passed for crimes proved to have been committed by them at home, shall be al. lowed to practice professionally in the Colonial Courts. The Governor, it is said, insists upon ibis professional practice on behalf of several Attornies so circum stanced, among whom is Crossley. The head of the . judicial department, it is said, refuses the privilege, on the around that the dignity and purity of British justice would not be likely to be duly sustained in such hands; and that, moreover, there were in the settlement Attornies, regularly appointed from home by his Majesty's Government, fully competent to the business, with whose offices the association of the convict Anomie: in the practice would be an im proper interference. i ~. • '4 rS r y ra , • • • • • THRifTRES. DRURY LANE.—Often as the excellent Tragedy of Richard lii. has been performed, it still maintains its attraction. The peculiar genius and powers of Mr. KEAN are admirably suited to give it permanent currency :—Last night he repeated the part of the tyrant, with all that native enegry and genuine fire with which he has so often electrified his auditors.— His performance also derived increased effect from the circumstance of his voice being, last night, more clear than it has usually been. COVENT GARDEN.—The Tragedy of Venice Pre- served was again performed last night to an overflow ing and-splendid House. Miss O'NEILL, in Belvidere, displayed, with the happiest effect, those transcendant powers which never fail, in the tender and affecting scenes of domestic calamity, to excite the sympathy, and command the feelings, of her audience.

Maidstone, Decentbrr 18. FIFTEENTH DAT.--TUFFEE and Sun, last night, at 20 minutes after nine finished their fourteenth day's labour with 60 miles : and this morning, at a quarter past six, Timm started again, and, with the help of his son, at 13 minutes before nine in the evening, left off with 50 miles, having then completed in the whole 890 miles. HAMPSHIRE PEDESTRIAN.

The pedestrian completed 48 miles in ten hours and 23 minutes, when he retired to bed ; after resting about three hours he ag.iiu started, and completed the 80 miles in 17 hours and 48 minutes. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE 4fT d4NTIGUA A fire broke out in this island, at English Har bour, on the 6th of October. During the storm, which raged the whole of that day, the extensive buildings of the Victualling Department were set on fire by the lightning, and, from the great quantity of rum and wine deposited there, as well as large quantities of provisions of all kinds, it burnt with such rapidity and fury, as to baffle every effort to ex tinguish it. 13y the great exerti , nis of Commissioner Lewis, and Lieutenant Colonel NIXON, of the fourth West India Regiment, the Dock yard was saved.— The loss, in property, was considerable, Lilt nu lives were lost. The following is a statement of the loss, exclusive of the buildings consumed : —230 pun cheons of rum, 56 pipes of wine, 030 tierces of beef, 250 barrels of pork, 80 barrels of flour, 60 barrels of pease, 100 bags of cocoa, 400 bags of bread, twenty five thousand pounds of sugar, with furniture, cash, bills of exchange, &c. PUGILISM. Tuesday afternoon last, a severe contest teok place at Beasted Green, - near Maidstone, by two men, named Sarong and Riley, which lasted one hour and 20 minutes, each party having agreed that there should be no fall without a knock &Yin blow. During the above interval, 51 rounds were fought, when ulti. mately Riley fell, which causing some demur amongst the spectators, at length all bets were withdrawn, though unsatisfactorily to the opinion of many who were present. Simi, though a small man, chewed great skill, and milled his adversary very severely.— Riley, a man of greater bulk, displayed good pluck, but little skill. Those who have lived rather gay, and are about entering into conjugal felicity, are informed that Dr. COOPER, and three Surgeons, of 30 years experience in Strictures, Fistulas, Debilities, &c. &c. have estab. lished a Medical Board at Charlotte-house, Great Charlotte -street, opposite the Rev. ROWLAND Hu.L's Chapel, Blackfriaes-road, by whom the public are cured without salivation or confinement. The Board claims the attention of those who have attempt ed the cure, or who have consulted men ignorant of so important a branch of the profession, whose im. proper treatment has ruined thousands. Eruptions on the head, face, and body, sore eyes, throat, mouth, and nose, vertigo, noise in tbeears, deafness, dimness of sight, pains in the head and limbs, frequently mis taken for rheumatism ; weakness in the knees, swelled ankles, &c. are symptoms which appear years after, and to often embitter the matrimonial state. Messrs. COOPER and Co. are consulted daily by all ranks of people, every morning until nine o'clock, and froml twelve till eight precisely; or by letter, inclosing a fee (for no others are answered), stating their ' case, when medicine and the best advice ts sent to all parts oc the kingdom. They also cure the piles and fistula, without burning or cutting; and give advice gratis, on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sun day mornings, till twelve o'clock A side door and private meals ter females. • RAW HIDES.

Yesterday the company assembled at Mr. Sadler's yard, in Goswell-street, was numerous and respecta ble. The conditions of the Shew were distributed to the different butchers ab3ut town, who ate to 101 l them, exhibit their carcasses in their shops, and make returns to the Club of their exact weights of Inc it and offal, with returns of dead weights, in conjunction with the particular certificates as to breed, age, feed ing, &c. Among the company in the yard, was the Duke of Dorset, and a great many other patrons of agriculture. Messrs. Cooke and Fisher sliew•ed several stalks of the new Heligoland Beaus, four pods of which are curiously grouped together through an un usually great length of the stalk : the sample also was shown, which is of a small and good sort. They likewise produced transplanted Swedish Turnip seed, of a very approved s wt. Messrs. Gibbs chewed a new variety of root, called the Breadfruit Potatoe ; and Mr. Phillips shewed another vat iety of potatoe, some of them boiled, in order to shew their quality in that state. At three o'clock, such as were Members of the Club left the yard, and repaired to the Free masons' Tavern, where a meeting of the Club was held. Sir JJIIN SANDERS Sannhuotn•, Bart. in the Chair.
