Among the advantages of this excellent institu tion, the one of employing 250 prime seamen by the Yachts of this club, may be considered of the highest national importance. Strangers to the delightful re creation of sailing, are often appalled by the rude ex panse of the ocean, or the exaggerated expenses of a Yacht appointment ; but when it is known, that in all weathers, from the gentle breeze to the boisterous hurricane, Yachts navigate with safety within the Wight, and find the securest shelter at their general rendezvous Cowes, the surprise ceases why so many GentlemeA partake of this fashionable national amu ;e -ment, or construct Yachts agreeably to their taste and judgment. The two classes of Yachts now in vogue are—the one of 70 tons, costing £1,500 to £l,BOO, sailed at an expense (Master included) of 4001. per ann. the other 30 tons, cost 8001. sailed at 2001. per ann. These, then, compared with a ba rouche, four-in-hand, stand as units in the scale of ex pense. Vntrxrinxt-GARDENS—This elegant place of Surrt mer amusement closed last night one of the most suc cessful seasons which it has known for several years. The Gardens were full from an early hour, and few took their leave of them without f-wlings of regret. ENGLISH OPERA.—The Privateer,a Comic 0-e-a, . altered from CUMBERLAND'S Comedy of The Bro thers, was revived last night. It is a spirited abridg ment, not a rash mutilation, of the original wcrk connection of the plot is preserved, and those parts iafthe composition selected to survive the rest in re i presentation are in most instances deserving of such ,preference ; and we arc happy to concur in the fa vourable decision of the audience that witnessed :Ls tevival. Of the exertions and talents of the Perfor mers, it is impossible to speak too highly.—Mrs. CuarreßLEy came forward in the part of Viuktta, while suffering under extreme indisposition, and with the assistance of that humane encouragement which a British audience always afford under such circum stances, she succeeded in depicting it with truth and energy.—Miss KELLY'S Sophia was all that the cha racter would admit of; and more, much more than it could suggest to an ordinary performer.—Miss .1. Brevenson, as Fanny Goodwin, exerted her captiva ting graces with the best possible effect she sung her songs very prettily, and was much applauded.— Mrs Gnovit ' as Lady Dore, acquitted herself with talent.—Mr. W.S. CHATTERLEY Sir . Beijansin Dove is one of the best, if not the very best attempt he has yet made on a London Theatre.—Mr. Captain iron:idea was eminently successful ; it is a part which by no means acts for itself. Almost every thing is left to the Performer, and it is enough to , say, that the Performer, in the present instance, did his duty. He sung several comic songs with great Leifect, and was more than once encored.—Mr. BROAD HURST, as Betfield, Mr. PEARM x, as Betneld, jan. and Mr. Isnnes, as Goodwin, executed many airs in excellent style.—The House was very full, and the announcement of the Piece for repetition was received with every mark of approbation. A new Comedy and Farce are, it is said, to he pro duced at Drury-lane Theatre, almost immediately after the opening. INQUEST.—Tuesday an %quest was held in t.!•.e board-room of Clerkenwell Work-house, Coppice liow, on :be body of ,Joseph Wells, aged 30. It ap peared from the evidence of the different witnesses examined, that the deceased had been observed for about a fortnight before his death, mostly lying among the old woodenwater pipes in Spa-fields: his wretched and deplorable situation at length attracted ,the notice of some humane passenger, who had oh 'served him lying in the same situation for a consi derable time, and who on going to him and making inquiry, found he had not broke his fast for three 1 days, and that he was then so feeble for want offoed, [and being exposed to the weather, that he was not able to move, and could with difficulty speak. Infor mation being given to the parish beadle, he was care fully removed to this workhouse, where be was wash. ed and cleaned, and put into a good bed. Mr. Spen cer, of Islington, surgeon, was sent for, who prescri bed every necessary medicine, and every thing pos sible was dote for his comfort. All the information that could be obtained from him was his mime and age, and that he had been a sailor, and had fought and bled for his country. Ile lingered until Monday morning, when he expired. Mr. Spencer gave it as his opinion, that the deceased died from want ; hut it did not appear that any blame could be attached in the slightest degree to the parish. The Jury, after the strictest examination of the different witnesses, unanimously retianred'a verdict, that he died, fr con starvation and scant An Inquest was also held on Mary Colclough, a fine girl, four years of age, who was burnt to death, by her clothes catching fire in climbing np to a mantle-piece to get an apple, while her mother was absent.—Verdict, accidental death.
