THEATRALIA. A COMEDY WITHOUT PLOT. It is not generally known that MotrLsY, the author of The Widow Bewilch'd, arid four other plays is to be enumerated in the list of autobiographers ; but the fact is, that he wrote the minute accost of himself and his family, to be found hot the Lives of the Pacts annexed to Whinco)'s &ander-beg. He tells the following curious story of his uncle, Colonel MOTLEY, who had been dis patched to England by JAMES 11. after his abdication. The Earl of Nottingham was then Secretary of State, and had obtained intelligence not only of the arrival of the Colonel, but of the object of his journey, though both *ere kept as secret as possible.- Colonel MOTLEY used to spend much of his time at the Blue Posts, in the Haymarket, with a Cornish M. P. of the name of TREDENHAM, who had an inclination to become a dra matic author. Officers were dispatched to this tavern to arrest the Colonel, and to seise his papers ; and they arrived when he was out, but they found Mr.TitsnErs- HAtd, whom they did not know, with a mass of writings on a table before him. They took him into custody, as well as his papers, and carried him before Lord Not tiagliam. His Lordship recognised the prisoner imme diately, but as the intimacy between him and Colonel MOTLEY was well known, requested permission to look over the documents. Mr. TREDENHAM assured him that they were nothing but the scenes of 4 play he had been writing ; but th 4 did not satisfy the Secretary of State, who took time t 'examine them, and then' return ed the scenes of Mr. TEEDENHAM'S play, observing, that whatever else there might be, there certainly was no plot in them. NAT LEE'S ARROGANCE. Nat Lee once listen'd to a sage adviser, Who told him he should be an earlier riser ; That morning was the time when wits were quickest, When ideas fiuw'il and fancies came the thickest. At least the adviser found it so, and he Therefore suggested such a course to Lee. Nat, weary with his talk, so deadly wise, Yawn'd a few times, and rubbing both his eyes, Thus answered him—" You mean it kindly, doubtless, But still I wish you'd mind what I'm about less: Get up yourself and welcome—l protest Against all interference with my rest. Rise with the sun—salute bis morning beams— Your waking thoughts are hardly worth my dreams. BURNS'S COINCIDENCES. The following coincidence between Mums (in one of his songs), and a passage in Wycherley's Plain Dealer, pointed out in the notes to the new edition of Dods ley 's Uld Plays. The words of BURNS are— " The rank is but the guinea's stamp, The man's the gold for a' that," Ste. And WYCHERLEY thus gives the same thought :— ft I weigh the man, not his title: 'tis not the King's stamp can make the metal better or heavier. Your Lord is a leaden shilling, which yt'u bend every way, and debases the stamp he bears."—P. D. A. I. sc. I. Another remarkable resemblance, almost amounting to identity, between the same Scotch poet, and a much older dramatist than WYCHERLEY, has been detected by the same authority. The following lines by BURNS, are known to every body in the three kingdoms : " Her 'prentice ►an' She tried on man, And then she nude the lasses, oh !" In Cupid's Whirligig, a Comedy, printed in 1607, and written. perhaps, before the desth of ELIZABETH, is the subsequent passage:— , 4 Man was made when nature was but an apprentice, but woman when she was a skilful mistress of her art." ARTHUR MURPHY. Late in life, Murphy grew indolent, and much retired from society, refusing many invitations. One day he received the following, but the fact is not recorded in his Memoirs : 1, Tortoises slid not always carry Their shells about. Into kis starry Hail Jove cited every beast There to partake a splendid feast— The Tortoise only stajd away. Jove ask'd why he should disobey? The Tortoise answered,' I have heard That home is beat, and I preferred To stay at home, and that's the reason; I hope ray crime is not high treason.' • Remain at home (said Jove) for ever ; You shan't get out if you endeavour. Carry your house upon your back, Since you in coming were so slack, Preferring your own selfish pleasure— You will repent of it at leisure.'" ACTRESSES. It is generally supposed that female performers were unknown in England previous to the Restoration. This is a mistake—and Thomas Coryate and other authori ties, might be quoted to prove, that at least before 1611, women had acted in London, though not on the public stage. The Court Ladies also constantly figured in the masques at Whitehall, &c. in the reign of Charles I. which, of course, gave great offence to the puritans. Oa the Continent it is well ascertained, that acuesses were known long before they were permitted openly to appear in England 4 and their introduction to our theatres was a foreign innovation under the patronage of Charles the Second. if that Monarch bad not also patronised an imitation of the foreign drama, and the introduction of rhyme into our tragedies, we should have had nothing on this score to complain of. Malone contends (Hist. Eng. Stage, 111. 126. Edit. 1821), that a woman had played the part of Desdemona as early as 1660, at the Red Bull Theatre, but he cites no suffi cient authority ; if the fact were so, this woman was undoubtedly Mrs Hughes, who did fill the character in 1663. Jordan, a minor poet, and author of " A Rosary of Rarities," prints in it a prologue to introduce the first woman actor on the stage, in the tragedy of Othello; and this might be considered decisive, but that JORDAN'S book was printed without a date. It is not clear that Sir WILLIAM DAVCNANTS .Siege of Rhodes had not precedence of Othello. The received tradition that Mrs. SAUNDERSON, who was the Juliet, Ophelia, and Desdemona of her day, was the first actress, is unquestionably an error.—Women did not for some years supersede the men as performers of female parts, aud, probably, in the first instance, it was no my mat ter to prevail upon Ladies to exhibit themselves before the public. There is one very remarkable circumstance connected with this subject,that the most indecent play in English, or perhaps in any other language, The Parson's Wedding, by T. KILLIOREW, was entirely performed by women, who undertook the male as well as the female parts in it. This most violent contrast to the system of the stage, prior to the Restoration, was exhibited very shortly after CUARLES 11. returned to this country. Mrs. MARSIIIALL, whose character is well known from GRAMMONT'S Memoirs, spoke the Prologue and Epi. logue, and undertook the character of Ms. Careless. COMIC INCIDENT. The following is extracted from the M.S. Common place-book of a deceased Dramatist, the author of one of our most popular Comed , es, and of the first Melo drama ever brought el the English Stage: Incident for a foolish ignorant servant. He sees his master in a passion, burning or tearing a letter he has just received, and inter rupts him to express his sorrow that it was destroyed, as he had long promised to send a letter to his sweetheart in the country, and had been unable to fulfil his undertaking, as he could not procure one for love or money. Now, that just burnt or torn, would have exactly answered the purpose... This joke is not new, we believe, even to the stage. PALACE COURT, SIFT. 28. SUMMERS V. ALLEN. Mr. THOMPSON opened the pleadings.—Mr. ADOL• PHUS (who was brought to this Court special) stated, that the action had been brought by Mr. Summers, 4 man of some opulence, carrying on the trade of a butcher in Skinner-street, Somers Town, against the defendant, who was also a butcher, and had formerly been the plaintiff's foreman, to recover a compensation in damages for the injury the plaintiff's feelings and reputation had sustais.ed, in consequence of the gross slander uttered by the defendant. The Jury which he had the honour of addressing would, he thought, be of opinion, that the character of a tradesman was as dear Ito him as that of any other member of society, however exalted might be his rank ; arid he was also confident that they would not think the alleged slanderous word! were either captious or frivolous. The Learned Coun sel read the slanderous words, and called upon the Jury to give such damages as would mark the defendant's conduct in this transaction, who had not ventured to put a plea of justification on the record, but had c•.n tented himself with denying having uttered the defa matory language imputed to him. Jeremiah Clarke, a furniture broker, at Somersj-swn, and a son of the plaintiff, were called, and they proved that, on the 17th of August last, the defendant, at the Brill Tavern, Somers' Town, and also at the door of the plaintiff's house, said, " You are a thief; you thought to have given me a ticket, but I will give you o.se ; you kept your slaughter-house open all hours of , the nigl.t,-to receive stolen property ; and, if I were to go before the Magistrates, at Hatton-Garden, and give evidence against you, I could hang you at any time, and that you know." The witnesses, in cross examination, said that all the l plaintiff said in reply was, " Go about your business, I' have nothing to say to you." Mr. FLANAGAN addressed the Jury on the part of the defendant, and contended that the language of persons in the line of business followed by the defendant was not generally very elegant or classical, and that the nicest construction ought not to be put upon words used under a sense of injury by a man of the defendant's low and vulgar habits and conversation. GEORGE LONG, Esq. the Judge, said that the lan guage used by the defendant was grossly slanderous. It imputed to the plaintiff that he was a receiver of stolen goods. The character of a poor and honest man —and that was as respectable a character as man could ha-e—was as dear to him as reputation was to a Peer of the Realm. The Jury would give such fair and reas-nable damages as the case called for. Verdict for plaintiff—Damages, 101. and costs. MIDDLESEX ADJOURNED SESSIONS, Sspir.2B. George Harrison, beadle of Paddington, was indicted far a•saulting a boy, named Charles Butler, who stated that on the day in question he and his younger brother were walking through the churchyard at Paddington, when the burial of a child was taking pace ; and their attention being attracted by the small white coffin which was let down into the grave, he was induced to ap proach the edge of it and look down; upon which the beadle ordered him to be gone. The witness asked him if the thorougfare was not open? To which he replied by striking the witness with a stick he held in his hand. The witness then Itruck him over the hat with a piece of wood; but the witness's hat falling off, the defendant broke his stick over his bare head. The lad's brother, and other witnesses, corroborated this statement. The prosecutor's head and arm were severely bruised from the blows inflicted upon him. Witnesses were called for the defence, who swore that the prosecutor disturbed the funeral ceremony, hunted the sheep in the churchyard, and used gross lan guage to, as well as assaulted, the beadle. After a great deal of conflicting and contradictory evidence, The Jury found the defendant guilty, asd he was sentenced to pay a fine of 101. Sarah Eaton, Harriet Brag, John Clough, Hannah Collier, Wm. Wincet, and 'rm. How, were indicted for a riot in the parish of Bethnal Green, on the r4th of August last. Mr:PRENDERGAST conducted the prosecution; Mr. BODKIN definded Mrs. 13rag, and Messrs. ALLEY and PHILLIPS the other dele:.clAnts. It appeared from the evidence for the prosecution, that a woman named Jane Lee had been coniieteel upwards of i year and a half ago of ill treating an ap prentice, for which she was sentenced to six months' imprisonment. In about twelve months after she had undergone this punishment, a number of the neighbours thought proper to burn her in effigy. Whilst this ope ration was going forward, a mob of nearly 200 persons were collected outside her house, who threw stones and oyster shells at her windows, and offered her every species of insult. Amongst the rioters she perceived the defendants at the bar to be most active in encou raging the others. For the defendants several witnesses were called, three of whom proved different alibis for the same person, which excited much laughter in Court. On Mrs. Brag's behalf evidence was adduced to thew that she was a religions, charitable woman, and incapable of being a party to such conduct as that imputed to her. Besides, she was the prosecutrix's landlady, and was therefore likely to be the sufferer from the injury done to her house.—The Jury found all the defendants Guilty. They were ordered to be brought up for judgment on Thursday next, to which day the Court adjourned. When are the various improvements in London and its vicinity to be fini bed? At present a pe destrian is sure to be over his ancles in a bog, or tripped up by a pile of stones, or compelled to make a detour of a mile, wherever he bends his course.— By the way, we perceive a board stuck up at Pimlico, with a notice as follows:—" Horses and carriages are respectfully requested to go round th e ot h er way. ' This is polite end considerate at all events. What would be said if such an inscription appeared in Dublin? POLICE INTELLIGENCE. • GinLDHALL. • The Stewuds of the Amicable Society; a clob instituted, as the preamble sets forth," to contribute to (an awkward expression, by. the-by) and alleviate each other's distresses." appeared before Al dermen Au and Legate yesterday, upon complaint of having unlawfully expelled one Hugh Price. The complainant had belonged to the society twenty years, and had paid about 50i. into the box, while he had drawn tack only DX In June last, while receiving 18s. a-week as a sick member, be was observed putting up the abutters of his shop at 1 i o'clock at night, without a hat on. The Steward, who witnessed this act, walked up to him, and gam him notice that he should repoit the circumstance to the Society. Two general meetings were held upon the subjett, and finally Price was expelled. Price said, he was a green-grocer, and his wife, who was a very fat heavy wornan,ha•ing been trudging about until her lees were swollen, he was obliged to put op the shutters. lie acknowledged he wits found shelling peas the next day, but that was under an Int. presslon that hr should not be allowed the sick money for that week. Mr. Alderman Arun , . said, that all societies of this kind were disposed to draw the line too tight, the body feeling a natural anxiety "to get ill of members as soon as they arrived at the age when they were likely to become burdensome. They could not look at a question-whether the rules had been Infringed by an ailing member without prejudice, and authority was very properly accorded to the Magistrates, who had no interest. to decide between the parties.— in this case, if the man had been detected in bringing home goods from market, or serving in kis shop, and carrying goods to his customers, that would have fairly been following his ordinary calling, But putting up two or three abutters on an emergency was not so, and the pea-shelling was not set up as a ground of expulsion. Sir Pasta Loma said, be should concur in ordering the man to he reinstated in the society ; but the society bafi certainly had a right to infer. that if Price was not afraid of ventiting out without; his hat to put op shutters, he was well enough to do many other things in his business as a greek-grocer, and he hoped the complainant would never be guilty of inch an act again while professing to be an object of relief from the sick fund.—The complainaat therefore was reinstated. BOW.STREFIT. aarke, the officer of the Court of Requests. Vine -street, Picca dilly, who was charged, in conjunction with niter. another officer of the same Court, who was ordered to find bail on Wednesday last, with an outrageous assault on Mrs. Teesdale and her brother ( Mr. Jones), was yesterday brought before Mr.Miestseic, to answer to the charge. Mr. Jones re-stated his former evident, and swore distinctly to his haying been struck by the prisoner. Mrs. Teesdale corrobo rated her brother's statement, as did also two other witnesses. The prisoner was ordered to find bail, himself in 401. and two sureties in 201. each. An Officer of the Army charged Henrietta &emu and Ann AIMS, two women of the town, with robbing him of the chain of his watch and its appendages. Aczording to the statement of the complainant, he was returning on Thursday night from the City, where he had dined, when be was accosted by the primers, who wished Man to give them some thing to drink. It being holignet eft in the morning, the public houses were closed, but she !snicked at the Black Boy in Long-acre, the landlady of bepisw, for the purpose of treating the ladies with a little re He found, however, that one of them had made free with his watch, &c. on dis covering which he gave both the prisesseinto custody. In answer to a question from Mr. hlinnann.t., the Lieutenant said be was perfectly sober at the time. The landlady of the house in question, however, admitted that be was very much in liquor. Both the prisoners denied in the strongest manner the act with I which they were charged. They said, that they met the Gentleman in Long Acre, and assisted him along, being incapable of helping himself. He thanked them for their kindness, and said be would procure them something to drink at the Black Boy, where he was known; and he spoke in great raptures of the landlady's daughter, to whom, he said, he was paying his add:asses, and was resolved to run away with her. On arriving at the door of the public-house, he knocked, and was admitted, having given the name of " the Captain." He remained in the house about ten minutes, and then returned, and charged the prisoners with robbing him. The pri• soners said ft was very unlikely, if they bad robbed the Gentleman, that they would have remained outside of the door for his return. . . . . The complainant denied the accuracy of this statement ' and was I indignant at the imputation respecting the landlady's daughter, whose name, he said, it was most unlikely (having an unbounded respect for the young Lady) be should have mentioned publicly. There bring no evidence against the prisoner James, she was dis charged, and Henrietta Stevens was ordered to be detained for a further examination. H ATTON.G ARDEN. A youth, named George Miller, late groom in the service of an Oxonian, was brought before Mr. RlOO2llll, by the Overseers of the parish of St. Pancras, on an order of affiliation.—The mother s a somewhat fascinating little bed?, about twenty-live years of age, with a well-dressed chubby boy in her arms, positively swore to the fathership of the youth. Mr. Itormas.—Well, what have you to say, young man?— Master Dallier (smiling): I can only say as this, your Worship, we were fellow-servants at Mr. at Oxford, in the beginning of last winter, and that she seduced me to her bed; I went to her purely out of good nature; but I have now good reason to believe it was a trick played upon me, and that my master has a prefetable claim to the h o nour of being the infant's parent. Your Worship, the baby is the very picture of him. Dlr. Rormas.—How old are you, young man? Miller.—Seventeen, come Sunday, your Worship. Mr. Room said he was not ignorant of the way in which such affairs were managed, and ordered the youth to pay Is. 6d. a week for the support of the child. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Yesterday, som after Sir Gnoaaa Fawns, the Sitting Magis trate, took his seat upon the Bench, a letter was handed to him by one Of the overseers of the poor for the parish of St. James, which had been written by the governor of a farm-house at Islington to the said parish, and to which it seems the authorities of St. James's are in the habit of sending such paupers as may require a change of air, or for whom there may not be sufficient accommodation at the parish workhouse in town. This letter stated, that the governor of the farm house was that morning under the necessity of turning nut three male paupers whom he named, and who had for some days past conducted the mselves in such a violent and riotous manner that It became impossible, with any degree of safety, to keep them there I any longer. Scarcely had the Magistrate finished the perusal of this epistle, when in marched to the Office the three worthies alluded to therein, all strong healthy young fellows, who came to make a grievous complaint against the governor of the farmhouse. On announcing themselves and their business, they were not a little surprised to find that the Magistrate was already in possession of a sketch of their history. They, however, declared that the statement made of their conduct in the governor's letter, was altogether unfounded, for that they had been guilty of no violence or improper conduct, except, if it could be so considered, that they insisted upon having some food given to them, as they were literally kept in a .we of starvation at this farm-house, so that they were often driven to the most painful extremities ; and they need only state as one slight in stance of which, that they were compelled on Thursday night last to kill one of the farni-honse cats, which was much better fed than themselves, and eat it for their suppers ; and as a proof of this fact, one of them held up before the Magistrate the rope with which they hung the cat, while a second displayed the blade, and the third a thigh-bone of the poor animal, which, they said, they were driven to devour. Sir G. FARIRANT, who seemed rather surprised at this statement, asked them if they had eaten the animal in a raw state, or had it dressed?—They replied (laughing all the while) that they first hung the cat, then bulled it in a pipkin, after which they made their supper off it. The Magistrate, observing that they seemed very merry is their hunger,asked if they were sure it was a cat they bad eaten, for he could scarcely believe the story—perhaps k wile rabbit ? They assured his Worship that It was a cat, as any one might see by the bones. They had no opportunity of treating themselves to such dainties as rabbits ; it was a pet cat of the governor's that they fortunately got boil of, or they must hive starved ; and since that meal they then made they had nothing given to them, but were turned out of the werkhoose like dolts, for no other reason but he. cause they had, through alsselute hunger, eaten this cat. The blacuraara said It appeared alt ogether a strange affair, and ordered the paupers to be taken for the present into the town work house, and that the governor of the farm-house should be directed to attend at the Witte to give some further explanation of this cat, transaction. MARYLEBONE. A Mr. Nathan, a Jew dealer, in Chapel-street, Edgeware.road, appeared to answer the complaint of a Mr. Fairbrother, who lately carried on the business of an eatiophoose keeper, in Chapel street but whose premises were a few weeks ago burnt to the ground. The substance of Mr. Faarbrother's complaint was, that Mr. Nathan had improperly purchased of the firemen some of the goods which had only been partially destroyed at the fire. Mr. Nathan said he lived withtn one or two doors of Mr. Fair brot►er, and he was passing the house us the night of the fire, when he observed neteral firemen selling some of the property, Which con. Arid of feather beds, carpets, &c. which had been partially COIN. .tonied, and being informed that the goods had been given to theta by Mr. Fairbrother. he bought a lot for I as. The Deputy Foreman . to the Imperial Insurance onithiny,,4l he was on duty on the night of the fire. and alter collecting goods together, he informed Mr. Fairbrother th.t the men wont/ leave the premises that evening, and Mr. Art...caber then select e d some feathers and a carpet. which be pee to the firemen, that tac t might have something to drink. The goods and premises wer e insured in the Albion and other Insurance (Mee, —Mr. Fait. brother said be had not given the men an unqualified penoi ss i ess i sell the property. Gllivrirn said he could not carry the case any fvrth er , ht consequence of the explanation Nathan bad given, and the matt er therefore ended, the feathers, &c. remaining in the possession of the Jew. QUIERN-SQUARE Richard Alen, a lamplighter employed at Putney Bridge, w i t charged with robbing the drawer of the tollhouse. eophia C‘snis4, the daughter of one of the toll collectors, stated that uo Tends she saw the prisoner trying to open the drawer containing them with a key ; he instantly left that drawer acrd went to th e pretending that be wanted some lamp.cuttoo ; she comnisnica the circumstance to Inir father, who stated that th e mi,,,ser h been employed at the bridge for sonic years; be 1 12 4 fix. a cos. -siderable length of these missed several small sums of mousy from the drawers.

Norris further said, that on the night previous to the prisoners apprehension, he beard from the „quarter from whence he bad his information, that the gang had no less than five watches in their possession, the fruits et that day's work, and on making inquiries at some of the pawnbrokers where the goods were found, beard that the same per.oas who bad pledged the watches had also pawned several quadrants, telescopes, and ether mathematical Instruments. They are remanded for farther examination until Thursday next. UNION-HALL.

Canoga Cane.--Yesterday morning Mr. SmootMU gee decision in the following case, under the Tstupike Act, between Mr. Davis, the lessee of tolls, and Mr. Bennet, a leachinaker, ohs was summoned for nonpayment of a certain toil. Mr. Bennet resides in Woeshipstreet, within a short disbace of the toll-bar, neat Cithos-etrust. On the occasion in ques tion be drove in a single horse anise through the gate and m toll was then demanded, as he bad not pissed 100 yuds 'keg the road of that trust. Having passed the bar be turned snout Clifton-street, proceeded round into Bkhopegate.steret, ad about half an hour returned to his own house through Wanlip street. In the latter part of his route be entered tips the complainant's trust, nearly opposite the Curtain-road, but the is. lance from that part to his own residence is still less than webs. dyed yards, and he claimed an exemption from toil under thr Act, ' on the ground that he had not at one time passed a distance of KO yards along the road of that trust. The lessee, on the other hand, contended that he was Noble to the toll, th*distance front Inshore to the gate, and from the point where he entered the road the if:- coed time to his house being together about 190 yards. The Msouraave decided that the distance of ene hundred yuh must be a passage of that distance on the road at one time*, and could not be made up of parts of that distance performed a different times. The defendant, therefore, was not liable toil toll demanded.—The case was accordingly dismissed. NEWGATK jtm LRADENHALL MARKEtS, Sin. a. Beef.
