COVENT-GARDEN TLIRATRE. A young Lady of the name of' Nrsarrr, who has been performing with much eelol at Bath, made her appearance last night at Covent garden Theatre, in the char:icter of Juliet. Miss NKSCITT'S person is very handsome ; her carriage spirited anil graceful; she Ills a voice of as much rii hoes and melody as ever we recollect to have listened to; and even with these rei:tiisites alone, by moderate sense and taste, it ss °Oil rot be 'very easy fur any Lady to make a failure. 'Miss did more than avoid a failure; she was warmly, and often deservedly, applauded throughout the ravening. 'ler. garden scene, though pi 4) et' evidently under alarm, was given the greater part of it—with infinite sweetness and delicacy. The scene that follows, too, in which she CO3XCS the nurse, told even against Mm. DAvcsroita's acting. which of itirlf is enough to kill all the Jitfirls iu Christendom. Miss Nagsive is very young, and very likely to improve ; with great ntticiebs of manner, and some frnmess of delivery. her Lien?, hcowever, at present seems to point towards comedy rather Our tragedy. and in characters of sentiment she can scarcely fail to prove a considerable acquisition to the'Theatre. VAUXHALL. The Vauxhall Gardens ere last night crowded to excess, in consequence of the more than usual splendour of their appearance in honour ache victory c.f Waterloo. Upwards of MOO additional lamps were displayed on the occasion, in military and other devices, and a stene was presented of greater brilliancy than could have been anticipated, notwithstanding the day that WAS comme morated, and the names that were to be remembered. Among the changes in the amusements of the evening we would particularly notice the Cosmorama of the Battle of Waterloo, a, exceedingly bcantilni and in teresting. The fire-wor ks were splendid in the extreme, and in those also care was taken to do honour to the heroes who conqueted on the 18th of June. THE MEMORABLE EIGHTEENTH OF JUNE. Yesterday being the Anniversary of the memorable battle of Waterloo, the second battalion of the first Regiment of Grenadier Guards, which battalion signa lized themselves on that glorious occasion, had a grand 6eld.day in Hyde Palk. They mu• toed on the ground about seven o'clock, accompanied by several Officers, amor.g whom were Colonel Townsend, Colonel Jones, Captain Boldero, &c. The word of command was given by Colonel Jones, belonging to the battalion, which, on forming line, proceeded through all the new evolutions and field exerci,e with the greatest precision. This occupied until ten del ck, when they were marched off the ground to their barracks, at Knightsbridge. The greater portion or this battalion wore laurel in their c.ep•, and on leasing Hyde Park they were noticed to turn their faces towards Apsley House, the residence of the Dake of Wellington, apparently elated with joy.-- The battalion mustered about 700 strong. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, JUNE 18. • John Foster, Writ. HorT,rffradley, and Henry HaW awa, were indicted for assault and falie imprisonment. Mr. PLATT, in opening the case, said it was one of great importance, and of a most extraordinary nature, and not less brutal than it was extraordinary. The pro. secutris, Miss Sydney Cowell, and her mother, resided at Chelsea, and let out part of their house. In the month of June, - 2 Mr. Rawstorn came to reside with them, and continued with them to the month of Decem ber, when he left them, and at which time he was in their debt upwards of fifty pounds. He was also in debted to one of the defendants (Foster), who kept the Princess of Wales, a puh;ie-Louse in that neighbour hood, in a trifling sum. Soon after Mr. Rawstorn's de pasture, Foster called for his bill, and was informed by the prosecurrix, that Mr. Rawstorn had left their house, and she did not know where he had gone to. Upon this, he became very abusive, and said he would make either her or her mother pay the money. He called afterwards with another of the defendants (Horn), and conducted himself in such a violent manner, that the prosecutrix was obliged to apply to the Magistrates at Qneen.square, for protection ; and on their hearing the case they bound Foster over to keep the _peace. On the 7th dry of May, the prosecutrix being at that time con fined to her bed, and her mother absent from home, to fetch Sir A. Creighton, her rhysician, the defendants _came to their house about eight o'clock in the evening, and asked to sea Mrs. Cowell. On the door being opened, they rushed in; Miss Cowell alarmed at the noise, got nut of bed, and came to her roinii door i n h er night dress, where she was met by the defendants, who seized her in a most violent Manner, and dragged her down stairs into the parlour, where they treated her in a most indecent and disgusting manner, saying, they would tracts her how to take Foster to Queen-square. They would not sufKa. her even to dress herself, but dragged her into the street almost in a stave of nudity, and afterwards forced her into a cart, where they con tinued their brutal treatment, until their arrival at Whitecross-street Prison, where she was confined from Friday to Saturday evening, when she was liberated on her mother paying 21. Bs. the suns for which she was detained.—The same witnesses who made these charges at Bow-,treet, in the first instance, were now called, and proved the facts ; and the Counsel and witnesses for the defendants were unable satisfactorily to meet this evidence. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the defendants. Sentence will be passed on Thursday. Private letters from Prague say, that hopes are en- , tertained there that his Majesty the King of ENGLAND' Vili visit Carlsbad this summer. Mr. Cooke% Annual Exhibition of Drawings has been for same time o, , en in Soho-square, and we feel great pleasure in directing the attention of our Readers to it. The dravt ings have been selected from the works of the most eminent artists, living and deceased, and its for mation has been aided by the several distinguished pro. printers who possess the rospective works. The names of Sir l'lintnas Lawrence, Messrs. Turner, Jackson, Stothard, Wilkie, West:di, &c. &c. arc to be found in the catalogue, with many others of equal celebrity. There are also three paintings by Gainsborough. exhi bited by artificial light, which form a most pleasing optical illusion. A curious occurrence took place at Plymouth dairing the loyal visit to the dock-yard in the year 1787. At this time. the great North Dock was constructing by Mr. PAILLST, the architect, by whom the docks and public buildings at tha place and at Pons- Mouth were erected, under the direction of the Navy Hoard. The good old King (thrones the Third), always interested and inqui sitive in the affairs of his Navy, discovered, by the plans laid before Lim, that the builder wax exceeding the dimensions given hint, and inquired the reasua of thi. deviation from his instructions. M r . l'armat inftn-ined his Manstr, that the French were then buililin 7 , at Touters, a first-rate ship so large that none of his l‘lwar.stv's ducks were capable of admitting her. Ile, therefore, considered it neces. nary to enlarge this one a little, that the Commerce de Marseilles might have outs dock in i:.ogii:nd fit to receive her. This so pleased his Mausir, char he immediately called the gums to let her know what Mr. Pacts? had told him, and both were highly delighted. It will be scarcely less gratifying to the re Act., than if was to Mr. PASI.IIIr, to iearn that the first ship ever taken into that dock was this very o, Littneret de Marseilles, becoming ours at the surnawitr of 'Coulon, in I;tpr. MONUMENT TO MR. IVA 1 7'. A Meeting. was yesterday held at the Freemasons' Tavern, to consider the propriety of erecting a Monu ment to the late JAMES WATT, as a tribute of national Lis genius and science, has gratitude to him, who, ,by multiplied the resources of his country and improved the c• edition of all mankind. The assemblage on this occasion was numerous and . respectable ; comprising Earl id* Liverpool, the T,trl of Aberdeen, Lord Bexley, the C:tanci.lior of the Li:chequer, Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr. Huskiason, M.P. Mr. C. Grant, ALP. Mr. Wilberforce, M.P. Sir James 31a.:kintosh, M.P. Mr. Brougham, M.P. Sir James Graham, But. M.P. Sir Isaac Coffin, Bart. 31. P. Sir Robert Wrlson, 31.1'. Mr. Gladstone, M.P. Sir Ilumpltry Davy, Mr. Bolton, Mr. Lit tleton, M.P. Mr. u,d Lewis, M.P. and several other Mem bers of Pariiatnent and Gentlemen of distinction. Several fashion able Ladies were also present. The Earl of Livxnpoot, hiving been called to the Chair, informed the meeting they were assembled for the purpose of discharging a public duty of respect arid gratitude to the memory of one of the most extraordi nary personages that ever blessel this country with their services. It would not be denied that there were few individuals who had a greater claim upon our gra tude than those who by their discoveries had increased the prodtictive pow ers of human industry ; and when, in any age of the world, was there-a more important dis covery than that of the steam-engine, of which the late Mr. Watt was almost the author; for its utility was nearly altogether unknown, until he, by his genius, and sagacity, and patient study, rendered it applicable to the. practical purposes of life; and by thereb3 , abridging human and animal labour, he had conferred the greatest possible benefits upon the whole world ? In such an assembly as the present, it would he presumption to say much of the invention of Mr. Watt. It had Le en compared to the trunk of the elephant ; there was no thing too small for the fineness of its touch, and nothing so great as to be beyond its reach. NVliilst it had im proved the texture of the finest silk, it had abridged navigation of half its difficulties. His Lordship, after dwelling on the advantages of Mr. Watt's discoveries, proceeded to speak of his private character. A more excellent man in all the relations of life never existed ; and if he had not received all the rewards to which hi., merits entitled him whilst living, it was because the modesty and simplicity of his life prevented them fr'.rn being suf f iciently known. It had been said that the value of his discoveries had been diminished by their having hccome known to the whole world ; but whilst the tiniversality of their advantages increased our ad. miration of their author, it was impossible not to feel that it was to this country, from its wealth and great ''command of fuel, that they were particularly and per manently applicable. His Lordship concluded by saying, that he was commanded by the King to express his Majesty's deep sense of the merits of the individual , whose services. they were discussing, and his wish that no subscription for a monument to his memory should take place at the head of which his name did not appear; he was therefore commanded to put down his Majesty's name, at the top of the list, for I:soo.—(Loud Chcers). Sir HuNtruaY Davv, after explaining the nature of Mr. Watt's inventions, which, he said, was not a for tui tons discovery, but the result of much philosophical study and numerous experiments, pronounced a warm panegyric upon his. character. The memory of James Watt would live as hwg as civilized society existed; but it bccaiiie them to give some substantial testimonial of their gratitude, not to increase leis glory, but to tes tily their sena: of his services, for which purpose he begged leave to move— " That the late James Watt, Esq. by the profound science and original genius displayed in his admirable inventions, has, more than any other man of modern times, exemplified the practical utility of knowledge, enlarged the power of man over the external world, and bcth multiplied and diffused the accommodations and enjoy. meats of human life." Mr. Bourom, formerly the partner of Mr. Watt, en tered into a calculation to shew that there was a saving of animal labour effected to the nation by Mr. Watt's invention to the extent of two millions and a half per annum. It was this which so mainly tended to rapport the nation through the late war,. and enabled it to en dure that Contest with an energy which excited the sur prise of the world—(Hear).—Both his (Mr. Bolton's) fa ther and himself had esteemed his connexion with that great man as the highest honour, and it was that con-' nexion he now pleaded for his presumption in seconding the Res& ut ion—(dpp/awe). Mr. IlusussoN felt it impossible not to be proud of the country which had given birth to a man who had conferred such mighty benefits on the world, and in creased the happiness of mankind. His improvements in physical and chymical science had a most beneficial influence upon moral society, even in countries the most remote and savage ; for, by increasing the means of satisfying every want, they had created inducements to make exertions towards civilisation. The Right lion. Gentleman then went on to shew the great advantages Mr. Watt's scientific inventions had conferred upon this country, the effect of which was particularly felt during our late gigantic contest, to the triumphant termination of which they had most materially con., ibuted. Therefore, when monuments were erected to those heroes who fell in that contest, we ought not to refuse them to those whose services, if more modest, were not less valuable. By his g. eat genius we had been enabled to defy the winds and waves, and, under the will of GOD, triumphed over the very elements. :limit as had already been gained, we might anticipate Gill greater advantages from tilt: further applica:ion of his invention. After some fat oh:ier vations, the Right Hon. Gentleman concluded 137 moving— " That these benefits, conferred by Mr. Watt on the whole civi lised world, have been first and most emperienced by his own coun try, which owes a tribute of national gratitude to a man who has thus honoured her by his genius, and promoted ht.: well .being by his discoveries." Sir dASSIMMACIUNTOSET, in seconding the Resolution, pronounced a glowing eulogium on the genius and in vention of Mr. Watt, which raised him, he said, to the, highest rank in society, and entitled him to the lasting gratitude of his country and of all mankind. The deb: of science had been well paid by the President of the Royal Society, than whom no man was better qualified, or snore entitled to pay it; the debt of the State and of mankind had been eloquently paid by the Ministers of, the Crown, the debt of that State, which, armed with threefold st rength by the genius of Mr. Wa►t, had thus been enabled to escape from the greatest dangers that ever threatened a nation. The Learned Gentleman read au extract from one of Bacon's tracts, in which that phi losopher, in an imaginary temple dedicated to science, set a gallery apart for the statues of inventers; and in another pair, he said that whilst the heathens ranked heroes ion:Weis of States amongst their demigods, they ranked inventers of arts amongst their gods. ' It was only sixty years since this invention by Air. Watt had taken place; and it had found its way already to every country, from the Mississippi to the (:cubes, and evels AnWagSt the savages of South America. After observing at great length upon the effects of their ills. coveries, the Learned Gentleman stated that he had lately visited the Mechanics' Institution, in company w ith Mr. Brougham. and was present whilst a lecture was , delivered upon the la..ss of attraction to above 800 me ' chanis. He never witneised more attention bestow ed , upon a lecture by any body of philosophers in his life , and when the lecturer had concluded, an unanimous j plaudit burst from the whole body, expressive of their delight at discovering and comfrehending a new and sublime truth (lATJar, hear). A more in.ellectual plaudit never rose 1: corn any body of men. This showed him the value of uniting science with the useful arts; and perhaps nixoy a Newton had been lost to the-:could for the. want of that alliance before. After some further Terms; ks, th e Learned Gentleman concluded by I t,econding the Resolution. Mr. BROUGHAM was thankful for the honour allowed him in taking a F art in this proceeding, far which he supposed he was indebted to the humble share he had . had in pron:oting, those institutions to which allusion had been wade by his Hon. Friend (Sir J. Mackintosh), the effect of which would be to draw forth many a man of genius to follow in the footsteps of him whose name, though once ob,cure, was now shining with brilliant and useful lustre. He had had the i:onour of that indi vidual's acquaintance, and he would state, that the public knew but halt his wo: th. In private life, his dis position was pure, candid, and simple; and he (Mr. Brougham) never met a min more scrupulously Loring of justice. One circumstance p,:iticularly struck him in the cietracter of this truly great man, his versatility of mind was so ;neat and universal, ti , s 1 it was difficult :o say whether it was more remarkaLlo for its immense •:::! , 0 or its minute delicacy of research. His invention had been compared to the trunk of the elephant, which could pick up straws, or tear op trees by the roots: Mr. Watt's mind re:embled his own invention, whilst nothing was beyond its dominion ' ns:thing was too minute for the delicacy of its touch, whilst it could tear up and cleave tusks, it could fashion the head of a pin. So he could pass at once from the study of the solar system to the details of a neeAle or a nail ; or ascend Li om the simplest subject to the most abstrisse. One quality, which particularly distinguished him from all other men of genius, was a total want of jealousy ; a careful and even scrupulous self denial, le-t be should infringe' on the merits of inlicrs; so much so, that he denied that he was the inventer of the steam-engine, and only called himself its improver ; although it might as well be said that Newton was riot the author of his system because Descartes or Galileo bad made one or two mi nute discoveries in it before; or that Sir 11. Davy was not the inventer of galvanism. After some further le , marks the Learned Gentleman moved . " That a Monument be erected to his memory, tither in the Cathedral Church of St. P,Lurs, or in the Colltgiate Church of St. Peter's, Westminster ; and that a subscription for that purpose be forthwith opened." Mr. LITTLETON seconded the Resolution. Before it was put, Mr. PEEL came forward and said, that although jus tice, as far as human nature could do justice, had been done to the merits of Mr. Watt, yet from the pecu liarity of his (Mr. Peel's) situation, he was induced to offer his humble tribute to his memory also. Ile was one of the numberless persons who derived a direct per sonal benefit from his inventions, and who owed all he possessed in the world to the honest industry of other , , —(Cheers). That man must have a base :lid tvot thless mind who on such an occasion as this refused to ac knowledge his origin and the debt he owed to it, with any other feeling than that of gratitude—(Ncar, hear). The origin he alluded to was the cotton manufacture, which had received new life and spirit froth the disco very of Mr. Watt. In the year 1790 the first steam-en gine applied to rotatory motion was erected in the town of Manchester; since when the improvement in this branch of manufacture had increaLed so rapidly, that in the same room you might perceive the raw produce, and see it in the next moment converted into the most beautiful fabric that adorned the female form. Vaen he contemplated the extraordinary benefits conferred upon the country by ti:is great man's inventions, he felt that the class of society ft our which lte (Mr. Peel) sprang was ennobled by his genius, and, therefore, he cordially joined in the wish to see his statue amongst thcreof the other individuals who had done honour to their county. The Rani of ABERDEEN moved the fourth Resolution, which was for the appointment of a Committee: Mr. F. LEWIS seconded it. The Noble CHA 113 IA N read a letter from Mr. Secretary Canning, expressing his deep regret at being prevent. .d by public business from attending the .Meeting, his cordial approbation of its object, and bis desire to give it every support in his power. Mr. JCSIAH Wronwooti moved the Fifth Resolution, which was —" That the thanks of this Meeting be presented to the Earl of Liverpool, for his impartial and dignified conduct in the Chair, and that this Meeting has heat d, with respectful gratitude, the gracious communication which bis Lordship has been authorised to make." Mr. WILBERFORCE seconded it, and spoke at some length. The Earl of Liveitrom., after expressing his sense of the honour conferred upon him, said, that they had now only to commence the subscription, and begged that they would accept £5OO flout his Majesty, and £lOO Iron, himself—(Loud applause). very• liberal subscription was immediately opened, after which the Meeting adjourned. The follcm ing instance of sagacity, related Mr. by E.W. of Exeter, in tit.? Annals gf Sporting for June, will prove accep:able to many besides the love: of field-sports: A favourite and most handsome setter (lielle) had whelped ten puppies, six of which I caused to be di owned ; on the following day, observing one of the re maining four to be in a vary weak state, 1 put it into a trough of water; and, after life was quite extinct, and I had put the mother in her kennel, 1 went away. A : few hours afterwards, an old and very sagacious dog, Don, was seen to be very busy in an adjoining court. lie was not disturbed until his labours were finished, when it was found that he had dug a hole, had taken the puppy from the trough of water, placed it in the hole, and most neatly covered it with earth. You may call this instinct, or what you please; but it discovered a degree of sagacity that will make me more and more attached to one of the best setters in the county of Devon." Wedn.-sday last a respectable Norfolk farmer, tt 11a weighs 19st. 81h. fo: - a very considerable bet ran a gentivinan ef Norwich, who weighs Is4t. 100 yards, in C hapel Field. The:round was marked out, cad persons were appolzted to see that as was fair. For the first ZO or 40 yards the Norwich gentler:at. had de cidedly th 2 advantage, but the Norfolk farmer,wha was vcry active, held back till within the last 30 or 15 yards, and then, made a grand eff4rt, aid passed his competitor wits great ease. • An ignorant soldier at Quebec, observing sorne of his comrades stay behind him at church, asked thcm, on their co:c.Lg out, what was the reason?
