The House was crowded in ail parts.—After the petfbrmance of " Ghti wipe Mt King," as is customary On such occasions, and the delivety of an appropriate Address, from the pen oil Jottir TAvitin, Esq. the Tragedy of Romeo and Ju liet commenced, and was attended throughout with great applause. It afforded two novelties—Mr. H. KEMBLE, from the Btth Theatre, in tle character of Romeo, and a Lady, whose name, we understand, is M.totitisats, in that of Juliet. The former is the son of the present Manager of Drury-lane Theatre, and I consequently a member of that family to which the Modern Stage is indebted for two of its brightest tie naments, and for some of its most respectable sup porters. Mr. H. Krumat's conception of Romeo was marked with a just and discriminating ardour; and , if it did not abound in flights of genius ' it did not offend by e x t ravagan t e ff orts t h e victims of their own vehemence and absurdity. The Lady who appeared as Juliet was also very favourably received. Her voice did not seem to have been fully exerted, nor her powers put forth to their utmost extent; enough, however, was done to give as a good opinion of her pretensions to public favour. We have no doubt they will both prove valuable acquisitions to the Theatre.—Mrs SPARKS, BARNARD, and Petrutv, were greeted with a cordial welcome. Kutotir was particularly notice: his animated performance of Peter gave great satisfaction. The other performers ac quitted 'themselves with their usual ability, and the Play altogether went off in very good style. Between the Tragedy and the Farce, which was to be No Song no Supper, a long time elapsed, and to wards eleven o'clock the house became impatient, and at last clamorous. The tumult had become very loud, when Mr. BARNARD, dressed for the part of Crop, p:esented himself in the character of an apo logist. He said he was requested by the Manager to state, that the cause of the delay which had taken place was the absence of Mr. OXBERRY, who was to appear as Endless: he added, that Mr. OXBERRY had been in the country for some days, but had promised to get to the Theatre in time for the Farce, and had by letter authorized the Manager to put his name in the bills. Under these circumstances, he solicited the indulgence of the audience for a few Minutes longer. Some disapprobation was expressed, but the boon called for was granted; and, after another pause, the curtain again rose, and the Entertainment began; but when the scene was about to open in which End less comes on, Mr. BARNARD advanced, and said, " Ladies and Gentlemen—l am sorry to inform you that Mr. Oxszaav has not yet come to the Theatre. In this distress ing situation, we can only request that you will permit Mr. Casa to read the part of Emden." A few hisses were heard, and these were succeeded by a cry of" Knight! Knight !"—Mr. BARNARD, on. this call being made, turned round and informed the audience, that when it was first apprehended that Mr. OXBERRY would not arrive in time, Mr. Kxtaiii had been sent to, but had returned for answer, that " he was then ia bed, and very laugh was the tesponse to this intelligence, and the arrangement proposed seemed generally to be acquiesced in. The Piece went on, and Mr. CARR presented himself as the representative of Endless. Mr. CARR did net use a book, and, bating the absurd extravagance of his dress, went through the part very fairly. Robin was well played by Mr. H. JOHNSTON; and BARNARD, J. SMITH, Mrs. BLAND, and Miss CDBITT, met with general approbation as Crop, Frederick, Dorothy, and Morgaretta. The following is the Address, which was delivered by Mr. H. JOHNSTON with considerable effect: Once more Old Drury now her standard rears, Sustain'd by hopes, yet not exempt from fears; Internal fends have eheek'd her onward coarse, And law has interpos'd its awful force: But Concord here, we trust, will soon revive, And fur your smiles with emulation drivel Fashion, we know, is stronger e'en than Law, And all mankind can in her circle draw; To novelty her stamp such power conveys, In vain may Genius spread its splendid rays, In cold neglect its brightest beams may fade, Lost in obscurity's o'erwhelming shade! But shall the spot where Gamma rals'd his name lii mingling radiance with his Snacsneaa's fame--s Where Sionons, Tragedy's unrivall'd Queen, As Nature vivid, dignified the scene— Where Smearoast, our boast, whom all admit A second Coen:fere in the realms of wit, Enrlch'd those realms with humour that shall live, And poliah'd mirth to latest ages give: (Two the " fell Serjeant Death" has borne away, The third has abdicated scenic sway; Yet still their spirit hovers o'er the place, With reason, truth, and energy to grace:) Shall these, so long adapted, to Fashion yield. And Talents droop on the deserted field ro!—Taste, upheld by you, with noble pride Mull Fashion scorn, and lead to Merit's side! No! still this spot to mem'ry shall be dear, And rising Genius find protection here Mtn WAI. PARRETT, who so successfully appeared at Covent-Garden Theatre, on Thursday evening, previously to his " trying on the Sock," was formerly in the office of a respectable Solicitor, at the West r End of the Town. Miss KELLY, we are happy to hear, k pronounced out of danger. Her disorder exhibited the most alarming symptoms for some days, bat has yielded to the skilful treatment of her medical advisers. THE PAnKs.—The Parks were very gay yesterday, and the turf has in a great degree resumed its beau tiful verdure. Many dashing equipages were in the drive, or as it is fashionably denominated, " the squeeze," and Dandies of every degree, on foot and a chevat, were fluttering about in all directins. 'The long-forgotten glories of Cavendish-square appear to . be again reviving; several four-in-hand turn-outs, in the full costume of the Whip Club, were visible yesterday, not only in the Parks, but on the surround ing roads. His Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT passed through both the Parks on his way to Kew. DEATHS BY DRINKING COLD WATER.--111 no for mer season do we recollect so many deaths occa sioned by overheating, and incautiously drinking cold water, as the present. In the town of Charl.tte, in Vermont, seven young men, labouring in the field, fell victims to this imprudence ; and in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, six more shared the same fate, all in an dai..--(Nrs; York Ere a's& Post.) itUNt: morning Mr. llu .appeared in the O'd Bailey :.4-fe said he came to complain of 'the &m -i.:hitt of the Cormosi SER;E' 11q r to the Judges, in not granting his motion on Saturday ; and again to apply for a warrant to appreihni.l Edward Quin, Esqi and Mr. Michell, the Proprietors and Printer of the New Times, for a libel.

A person, armed with a pistol which had a bayonet, got into the apartments of Mr. COCKERELL, a vet" rich Englishman, who lives in the loatagi.e du Pan, and attemptcl to discharge his pistol at him ; but, as it missed, he made use of his bayonet, and inflicted on his victim several dangerous, if not mortal wounds. Having committed this crime he escaped, leaving in Mr. COCKERELL'S room the pistol a..;1 his coat. The Police are in pursuit of him ; he is generally spoken of as having inhabited a lodging in a neighbouring house, and various causes are assigned for this dread ful assassination." " SEPTEMBER 9.—The assassin of Mr. COCKERELL has hitherto escaped all the exertions of the police. This individual (not a Belgian), was not induced to this crime by jealousy, as has been reported. Mr. Cock:taut:3 situation is very alarming, for of the five wounds which he has received, two are supposed to be mortal. This Englishman enjoyed the public esteem, and the crime committed upon his person, has excited in this city equal horror and indignation.'

The nail trade is also so brisk, that the masters at Dudley and Stourbridge have tecemtly been able to raise the wages of their workmen. From an American Paper.—S.A.v xx Ari, Ji-ty 21. a We received the following letter from a Gentleman of great respectability, to the Editors of the Augu.ta Chronicle. It opens a new vista to the character of Ferdinand and the Spanish Cabinet ; and an evi dence, says the Chronicle, that the Spaniards would have taken ossession of Florida, to indemnify them selves for the spoliations committed on their com merce: and that, while they were making the fairest promises to do us justice, they were so far from in tending to comply with them, that they were ac tually labouring to prevent us from doing ourselves that justice which they knew we were entitled The two agents of the Duke of Alegon, to whom all the unceded lands in East Florida were ceded, have arrived at St. Augtruine and claimed the same; and.l am informed his Excellency Governor Coppin ger has already placed them iu pcssession of it ; they .have opened a land office, and mean to sell to any purchasers offering ; they have also the privilege of Purchasing the Indian title to the celebrated Alocila way territory, and have already taken steps to effect the same."
