The cerebiity of the father iiised tong hopes as to the tinalAcatiobs of the son, and his reception was ex- I ren i e ly !becoming. Mr. KEAN, jun. (as he is aft booked in the bills) is of the midck stature, and ele gantly made. Ott his entrance he appeared somewhat strange in his new sphere of action, but he speedily re 'covered his self-possessioq, and maintained it to the last. Easy and gentlemanly in his demeanour, his action was unrestrained, and frequently elegant ; and he at tended to the business of the stage, and likewise ictenti• gThimself very successfully with the unsophisticated ambition of )suing Abroat, and aTterwards with the 0 ing hopes and proud bearing of the youtbfulDoeglas. - To pronounce a decided opinion on the youthful Per. former's merits would be rather difficult, as the capaci ties of so young a candidate, and without actual experience on the stage, could hardly be fully ex*tedi to be developed on "his first appearance on any stage..., His attempt has been a bold one, not unsupported by very considerable acquirements; and we shall gladly avail ourselves of the opdortunity of seeing Mr. KEAN, jun. do still better, and of hearing testimony to further succresses. . _ _ _ _ ._ _ . Mrs. Warr in genes al pet formed her !tart well, though her tone throughout was rather too plaintive and whin ing. Mr. COOPER, as Old Norval, surpassed himself. The scene between Lady Randolph and him, in the third act, was done in admirable style, and drew forth tears from many of the audience. The propriety of action, distinct manner in which he pronounced the words, and in general the correct idea which be had formed of his character, well merited all the op timise which Mr. Conran received from the au• thence. Mr. WALLACE performed the part of Glenalvon with success. At the rising of the curtain, God save the King" was performed by the orchestra. Mr. Cone, Mrs. Gents, and a young Lady of the name of GRANT sung alternately the verses, and were much applauded. Miss GRANT was listened to with marked attention. The pit repeatedly was a complete scene o' confusion. The pleasure was such that every one strove, without respect of persons, to get some place for him self. Perhaps not more than twelve Ladies were in that part of the house. The head dresses—from the rush on entering, and the squabbles of gallant men •around them—were in a sad plight before the end of the piece. When the cocain fell the call for Mr. Kilos' was loud and general. After some delay he made his appearance and was loudly cheered. Douglas was announced by Mr. WALLACE for repetition on Thursday amidst great applause. After the Ballet of the Camp, in which the Nongs danced with their usual animation and ingenuity, the musical piece of Midas was performed. Mr. DOWTON was Midas, and we never saw him in better spirits, or act to greater perfection. His voice was unusually powerful, and his• face was a personification of rich humour and mock dignity from first to last. Miss Love, as Apollo, made her first appearance at this Theatre, sad was very flatteringly received. She looked re. markably well, and was extremely animated. Mr. TAYLRURI was a tolerable Pan. and Miss I. PATON and Miss A. Tan; as Nysa and Daphne, were pleas. ing, while Mrs. C. JONES made au excellent Goody. The piece was altogether well played, and may be repeated with advantage. COVENT GARDEN. This Theatre also commenced its winter campaign last night, and with a powerful Company. The Gen tleman who commands, and whose caution and general ship is well known, did not however on this occasion in troduce any of his new-raised forces, but trusted for suc cess, in this his first attack upon public favour, to the well tried powers of his established troops, and they did not deceive him. The Play was Julius Cesar; and the talents of these who were announced to sustain the principal characters, were sufficient without a single novelty, notwithstanding the attraction held oat at the rival Theatre, to draw a most respectable audience. As is usual, on the opening night of the Season, the National Anthem was sung previous to the commencement of the Tragedy. On the rising of the curtain, the strength of the Company presented itself ranged on the stage, and the well-known and established favourites of the public received a warm greeting as they presented themselves to the audience. As we have be fore observed, there was nothing new in the cast of ch.'. tatters on this occasion ; and the metits of those who sustained the principal parts in the Play are too well known to call for a lengthened critique on their per forrlunee. Mr. C. K !mimes Marc Antony lost nothing of its force in his hands; on this occasion it was as spirited and as excellent awnsual. The Funeral Ora tion, one of the finest and most effective points in the Play, was most judiciously managed. and the exer tions of the actor were rewarded by the loud plaudits of the audience. YOUNG'S Brutus, and WARD'S Cassius, afforded to the lovers of the Drama a treat, not Ire enently exceeded, especially the quarrel scene. The Play was powerfully cast, even in the subordinate characters; and should the Managets be able to present such a bill of fare nightly to their friends, there can be billy doubt of their making a successful Season. The Tragedy was followed by the Spectacle of Peter Wilkins. The excellent acting of Mrs. Vanua, as the hero of the piece; the agility of Pantos in the Non descript, and the humours of Kens,/ and l'Oesite contributed most successfully to the amusement of the audience, and elicited uproarious applause, even from the gods themselves. ADELPHI EATRE. This elegant little Theatre TH commenced its Wintee Sea son last night, and we should judge, from the crowded state of the h ouse , under most favourable auspices, Daring the recess, the whole of the interior has•been entirely redecorated, and embellished in the most splen did manner. Two new orchestra boxes added, the dress circle enlarged, the proscenium extended in height and breadth; and, in short, nothing left undone that could in any way contribute to the comfort of the audience, or add to the effect of the performances, which com menced after the national anthem of God save the Mag, with the favourite piece produced last season of Luke:4, Labourer, in w hi c h M r . B ucesron m the author of the piece, a pei former well known on the other side the water, elude his first appearance here, and met with well de., served success. Another candidate for public favour, in the person of Miss TAYLOR, from the Brighton Theatrm i likewise made her first appearance. The rest of the characters being as before, it is only requisite to say, they were received with all the warmth due to old fa vourites. The burletta of %%John-street, Adelphi, fa lased, in which YATES, in the part of Mr. Tontkins, kept the house in a roar of laughter. After the Burletta, a new Grand Ballet, composed by the celebrated DIDALOT s was produced ; in which Miss BARNrit o from Drury-Hun made hart defust—the production of this Ballet atone, •aa a Spectacle, would reflect great credit upon the Management, but which, added to ele g ant dancing, beautiful music, ac. cannot Tail of attracting. ' The admired burlesque of The Quadrupeds. followed: M which Mr. 4. Reeve played his old poet of Ara hatisides—he introduced •arious imitations of London performers, and sang a parody on Cherry Ripe with all . the humour so characteristic of him. We have already said that the house was crowded. We may truly add that the company was genteel, and sincerely wish the spirited Managers all the success which they so unquestionably merit. • 41. -- the cloth peter, was .101.14/‘ which isa Ste. eld rote fleet ; an, *ld e tbe Po" wee cca' tral emu* 'bled, sr* rated fic e , ' was w" deeec**4 it which II 'brie d laSlin d * bees wee. & deice for d u t o lsog. was **Tgr po erica * a • with the oo a 101. -- a mom 41 ' 2the od d which ere • it It 7 . 1 11 : water. •••• r view * a d o by welcome* I knew r I wse t re. lo v if 14os toted be( Web same . s***. as Ndd e labia t.

Colonel Russell, Meters. Aubrey, Irby, Mille, and some other Members. The attendance of the betting men is numerous; but their expectations that some of those, who have not yet shewn at Tattersall's, would meet their St. Leger engagements here, have as yet been disappointed, the parties having been too much fatigued at Doncaster to be enabled to get their boots on. Some hopes, however, are entertained fee to-morrow, when the settling for to-day's races takes place. Contrary to our expectation the weather is very favourable, and the above of general company is in consequence more numerous than, from the scanty appearance, had entitled us to anticipate.

We have weer witnessed any thing more picturesquely grand ihr Stag Hunt at Killarney, on Wedneeday t a tree description stnalikk would require the pen of a Scott or Syron. It was like arimelmited little fairy world to look down from the mountain iso dormer gay barks gliding on the lake beneath among which we the beautiful pleasure boats of L ord Kenmue, and Illh fli .r hed oonelL We have not, on any former occasion, seen so many lleyeetabk personages on horseback, among whom was a young Lady deserving the stmentadmiration for her superior horsewoman. ;hip wad courage. She rode from the Kenniate Arms at six o'clock /um to the ruins of Aikido., from thence to Dunloe Castle, and dwough that grand defile in the mountains between Tonnes and WOillyeutidy's reeks (called the Gap). On penetrating into this thileinw admiration of the wild scenery is exchanged for a feeling of awe, and an impression of fear; bat this young Lady had such a sublime idea of the grand beauties around her, that she coatinued tar tour fearlessly through that dreadful path, guarded at each side by steep perpendicular precipitous craiga, where masses of enor. moss bulk lie tossed in aU the terrific sublimity of chaos, and we have known persons, who, when they have arrived at this 'polo' were so paralysed with terror, that no earthly reward could induce them to advance; but this Lady, regardless of danger, exchanged her horse for a mountain Sticky, and (while the guide and the rest of the party were obliged to trust to the steadiness of attir feet), she rode along the margin of the black lake, and, wonderful to re bate, crossed Mount Havhe, without once parting the fleet animal an which she rode, a distance of seven miles, where the arbutus and wild &eider rose seemed waving their bloss omed headi, as if con. goes of the approach of hensan beings. Fresh horses waited at the north aide of the mountain, and the party, after riding six miles a the new line, arrived before one o'clock at. the base of Turk,from whence they had a grand view of the stag hunt.—Chrk Coisaitastion. Cardinal WoLorr, on leaving Oxford, where he had been maintained on very slender means, settled in the country as a schoulanaster, where happening to displease a powerful neighbour, Sir PAWII47, the latter, says his biographer, set Wotan , by the keels," anagram which was never forgotten or forgiven, but grievously repaid, when the schoolmaster became virtually both a spiritual and temporal hlonarch. When a corpse is buried in Russia, it is attired in its best clothing, or in an expensive substitute fog it ; or, if the indivi dual held any situation under Government, in his appropriate old ions. This custom led to • singular occurrence on the decease of the late General .4lablef. After bis interment, a bill of 30,000 stables was missing; suspicion fell upon his secretary, who was threatened with a prosecution, unless it was produced. Unable to account for the deficiency, the ides at length occurred to him that the paper might have been buried with his master ; the coifin was opened. and the bill found safe in the General's pocket. A curious custom exists among most northern na tions, as among the French and Italians, and of the inhabitants of Asia and Africa, for which it would be difficult to assign an origin—namely, that of making a I , w bow, accompanied by some expression of benedic tion or salutation when a person happens to sneeze. The effect produced in a whole army of the ancient Gr. efts by the mere circumstance of one man sneezing is :elated by Xenophon. The approaching return of Ulysses was hailed by Penelope io the sneezing of her son Telemachus; and a religious reverence for sneezing is not only alluded to by the Roman Historians, but bas excited the cariosity of ancient and modern yhilo sophers. COURT OF ALDERMEN; PIM f 9. , , ....a......_ . , . • WHIIIIIIIFF lIPARIBROTHER AND THI RECORDER. . , After the routine business of the Court was transseted ' ins Saturday, all the officers of the Court were ordered to withdraw, it being considered necessary to .conduct so delicate an a air as that between Sheriff Farebrother And the Record as privately a.• pOssible under all the t circurnitaaces,._ The SEILItI9, rose to state his gtound of complaint against the Recorders which,. as well, as we could col lect, was nearly to thf following effect :—The Sheriff had in the course of his official investigation, found that a young man, named William Crane, who had been sentenced to be imprisoned six months and whipped, for having stolen a piece of meat in Ncwgate Mat ket, was considered to be an object for the mer ciful consideration of Government, and was determined to exercise his influence in order to procure a re mission of the mo,t heavy part of the sentence. A petition was drawn up, representing the respectability of the prisoner's connexions, and whatever else appeared to be matter for justifying the abatement of the more rigorous punishment, and it was handed to the Sheriff, with a view to obtaining the recommendation -of the Judge who tried the prisoner, to the Secretary of State. The Sheriff proceeded to the Old Bailey, where the Courts were sitting at the time, and handed the petition to the Recorder, requesting his signature. The Recorder, upon reading the petition, took a pen, but instead of subscribing his name to the paper wrote upon the back of is the word si scandalous.' Ti2it word the Sheriff convideced an insult to hmsea, and he addressed the Recorder in a private room near the Old Court upon the subject, in the presence of one of the Judges. The terms on which this address uas made, on a topic cal culated, to excise so much heat, were not, we are informed, eery iireasured ; and the observations of the lecordei were not just such as to conciliate an ()Ended officer Of so much importance in the city of London and the county of Middlesex. The Re. curder stated, that if the Sheriff did not put the sentencepf the Court into execution. a fine should be inflicted upon him. The Judge said not one word upon . the subject, but witnessed the crimination and recrimi nation with all the calm gravity for which be is distin guished. The stogy y discussion at an end, the Sheriff, not diverted front his intention of obtaining the libera tion of the prisoner as soon as possible, represented to those who had signed the petition the necessity of get. ting up another. the writing of the Recorder upon the one of which he was in possession being an obstacle to the presenting of it to the Secretary of State. This course was adopted, and the Sheriff applied with the new petition to the then Secretary of State (Mr. Peel), and obtained the desired remission of the sentence, and the prisoner has been since liberated. The Sheriff, however, thought that the indignity which had been offered to him by the Recorder, in ap plying to his interference the epithet is scandalonsAre quired serious notice, and resolved to complain to the Court upon the subject. He had been performing what as considered a most essential part of his duty, when he engaged in representing the circumstances which appeared to be favourable in the case of an suifortunate convict, and the manner in which he was checked by the Recorder for having interfered, from an impulse of humanity, was such as an officer of such rank as he had the honour of sustaining could not tolerate. He had no pernanal motive for making this complaint. He felt not the slightest personal hostility, but he felt that a ords had been used in reference to his conduct which ought certainly to be retracted. The word scandalous" had not only been written in the petition, but the Recorder had, us the conversation which took place bet* een thew s accused him of scandalous conduct in countenancing the petition. He should leave it to the Court to decide upon the merits of the complaint, and of the excuse or justification, and was ready to call witnesses to substan tiate the facts he had stated. The RECORDER said, that the Sheriff had improperly interfered with his duty, in refusing to carry into exit cutlers a sentence, which, after a full consideration of the crime and character of the prisoner, had beeu , passed. The offence of which the prisoner had been found guilty was one of frequent occurrence, and it had' become n-cessary to ii.flict the punishment of flogging and severe imprisonment upon offenders of the kind. The example of public flogging was, in such cases, most salutary. But in the case of the prisoner whom the Sheriff had thought proper to recommend, there was nothing whatever tojustify recommendation; for he had been convicted three times upon former charges, and was of course a person to whom it could not be very wise or very charitable to extend the indulgence of a remitted sentence. There was evidence of those convictions on the records of the Court, and he (the Recorder) had supplied himself with copies of them. He had refused to sign his name to the petition, because he knew there was no foundation for a pe tition at all, and he considered the interference of the Sheriff, who was a servant of that Conn, quite unjustifiable, and such as was calculated to draw tUlth severe animadversion. The petition which had been sent to the Secretary of State was not the petition which had been presented to t.im for his signature., That which carried on it the mark of the Judge bad 11 keen destrOyed. After some further observations le justification of his conduct in refusing to sanction the object of the Sheriff, he stated, that the Sheriff's ergo. meet against the whipping—the indisposition of the prisoner—was not available, as the indisposition took place subsequently to the period at which that punish ment should have been inflicted: and he concluded by denying the right of the Court of Aldermen to question his conduct in discharging the duties of a Judge. Some of the Aldermen here proposed that the Re corder should apologize to the Sheriff for the offensive words which had been used by the former. The RECORDER, in a firm tone, declared that nothing should induce him to apologize. He acted under his Majesty's commission; and it would be an indignity to him to apologize bathe Sheriff for conduct which in his conscience he approved. The Lonn Meson strongly condemned the conduct of the Recorder, who was the paid servant of that Court, and yet had used language to one of the meal-, bets of it which could not be tolerated. The Sheriff' was not paid for the important duties which be per-, formed: on the contrary, his office was extremely expensive. The offensive words ought at once to be, retracted, otherwise it might he found necessary to adopt some course which would be likely to prevent a repetition. The RECORDER repeated that he would not apologize. Alderman ATwiss thought that the conduct of a Judge ought not to be interfered with by a Sheriff. such a thing were to be endured, the office of Judge must indeed be very far from independent. Besides, he did not see how the Sheriff should come to that Court and act in his double capacity of Sheriff and Alderman, in bringing forward the charges He agreed with the Knottier, id denying the power of the Court to inter- . . . tere with the duties of a Judge., harmer appointed, or by whomsoever paid. Sir PETER Littilktit suggested the propriety of ad journing, and thought that the affAir would terminate, well in the departure of all the member, of the Court. The Loan MAYOR objected to adjournment. until the other bb.iness of the Court should be gorte through.

About three o'cl , ick on Sunday, an immense eon course of people assembled on Clerkenwell Green, to hear the Rev. Mr. Nauru, of Pentanee, who- land pre. viously intimated his intention of holding forth at that hoot and place. Mr. SMITH mounted a table placed in the centre of the Green, and had just commenced singing an opening hymn, whew he was interrupted by Mr. READ, the chief officer of Hatton-garden, who, ac. companied by the 'al ious officers of that establishment, attended by order of the Magistrates, to prevent Mr. SMITH from preaching there, informations having been sworn before them by the overseers of the parish, that such a proceeding was likely to endanger the peace of the neighbourhood. Mr. SMITH having learnt who Mr. RIAD was, and by what authority he acted, quietly submitted to the commands of the Magistrates, complimenting the chief officer on the gentlemanly man ner in which he had executed his orders. He then to. formed the persons assembled of the inter' option he had experienced, but besought them to forbear from any im proper conduct towards the officees,who were merely act. ing under the authority of higher powers.
