The morning as usual was ushered in with the ringing of bells, the .flags and standards were displayed From the church steeples. At one o'clock the Park guns discharged a double royal salute. In the course of, s tbe morning the PRINCE REGENT, the Royal Dukes, &c. left town for Windsor, to be present at a dinner to be given by the QUEEN at Frogmore, in commemoration of the day, it not being deemed decorous for the ROYAL FAMILY to Celebrate the day in any public manner, under the Afflicted circumstances in which his MAJESTY labours. —The following Ministers and Officers of State gave dinners on the occasion : The Earl of LIVERPOOL, to Peers.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.--Last night, Mr. JOHN Howano PAYNE, who is a native of the United States, in North America, and designated as the Roseius of the new world, made his dramatic debut, :a the character of Douglas. Mr. PAYNE appears o) be under twenty years of age : his person is small, 7rt it is graceful. His voice is clear, and capable of much modulation. His reception was eminently flattering and his performance, which was crowned !hroughout with unmixed and unbounded applause, ;.olly justified the fond anticipations of his friends aod tne sanguine hopes of the few who were ap prised of his debut, though he could never wholly a,vest himself of trepidation ; feeling as he did, no Oubt, the vast difference there was, of playing on olcli stages as those of Boston and Philadelphia, and such ap immense and splendid Theatre as that of Drury Lane : hut it would be certainly a deed of aliustice to pass a final opinion of his merits under such abashing circumstances. He bath something to learn with regard to action, and much to unlearn with regard to emphasis, yet he may, and we have an doubt will, become an estimable actor: Mrs. Pes.veco, of Covent-Garden Theatre, sus ?ained the character of Lady Randolph, in conse euence of the absence of Miss Small, whose atten dance was precluded by the sudden and dangerous vid;sposition of her mother. Mrs. POWELL performed - .vith all her characteristic excellence. Mr. SKErVINGTON'S new Comedy was read in the Green Room on Thursday last. It is to be brought tarward immediately. _ - NAVAL ormlicENCE. EAST INDIA SHIPPING. The extra ship SOVEREIGN sailed from tengal Bth January, and from Madras Ist February.

Via, II THE ARMY. _ _ • We have now upon the establishment of our army a new corps, called the Rocket Corps. They are employed both mounted and on foot. The exertions and arrangements made by the Corn missary-in-Chief, to obtain supplies of accoutrements for the Patriots in the North of Germany, have been so successful as w render it unnecessary to have re course to the Depots of the Local Militia, as formerly intended. A small detachment of the 9th Light Dragoons, and a number of invalids of sundry regiments in the Peninsula, arrived on Sunday at Deptford. The in valids bad been some time at Plymouth, waiting a conveyance to the River, to pass the Board at Chelsea. Last week Earl CASTLECOOTE arrived in Limerick from Dublin, on his way to take the command of his regiment, the Queen's County Militia, quartered in Killarney. Wednesday se'nnight the first, and on the following day the grand division of the 2d Royal Surrey Regi ment of }Adida s marched into Mary-street Barracks, from Mullingar. On the same morning the last di vision of the 2d Royal Surrey Militia marched from this town on their route to Dublin, where they are to embark for England. This regiment has been quar tered here since their arrival in Ireland; and, from their sober, upright, obliging, and soldierly demeanour, had justly gainedthe sincere attachment and good wishes of all classes of people in this town and neighbourhood. As a genuine mark of mutual unanimity, and in ve neration of old Ireland, they gave three hearty cheers when on the eve of departure, and marched off with the national air of " Patrick's Day," which was followed by " The Sprig of Shellelah," &c. Hundreds of the inhabitants were assembled at an early hour to bid farewell to their new friends, and escort them out of town : and never did we witness genuine Irish send ment- more feelingly displayed than in the repeated cheers of the populace who accompanied them a con-. siderable distance ; and on their return drew up in regular line on both sides of the road, and kept up an incessant and heart-enlivening huzza while the regi ment was passing. They have been replaced by the Royal Carmarthen Militia.—Mullingar Journal.

MODERN GREECE.-We congratulate our Readers on the publication in this country, of the Travels of Dr. POUQUEvILLE in the Morea, Albania, Elc.* This work will be found no less valuable from the extreme interest of the subject, than from the talents of the Author, which, it will readily be confessed, are of the verx first order. It gives the only general and complete Account of these interesting Countries that has yet appeared. It has never fallen to our lot to meet with any thing which gave us so high an opinion of the Society of Freemasons, as the Account of the Proceedings at the Festival of the Society, given to the Earl of MOIRA. on his taking leave of the fraternity, previous to his departure for India ; faithfully taken in short hand, and carefully revised, corrected, and published by J. ASPERSE, Cornhill, under the sanction and au thority of the Grand Master. It is in itself elegant, and adorned with Engravings of much more value than the whole cost ; while the judicious and interest ing speeches of the Royal and Noble pe d rsonages con cerned, will be perused by every reaer with the highest satisfaction. FUNERAL OF MR. AND MRS. SONAR. On Thursday evening, about seven o'clock, two hearses arrived at Camden-place, the magnificent seat, lately the abode, of the unfortunate Mr. and Mrs. BORAS; they contained the coffins, which ‘vere im mediately carried, by the servants of the Undertaker, up the grand' staircase, and along the galleries into the bed-room, where the bodies were placed on the day•preceding in leaden ones. At eight o'clock, 16 men brought them down into the principal drawing mom, first proceeding through the library and vzs.i bule. The bodies were `placed on tressles, parallel with each other, and the two lids of feathers upon tables in the rear. The coffins were covered with black velvet, and ornamented with very rich gilt em bossed handles, nails, &c. The inscription plate on Mr. Boxaa's contained simply the arms, and underneath " THOMSON BONAR. Esq. Obiit Slat May, Isis. Etat.7o year.. On the other,' * Mrs. ANNE DON All, t.tat. 59." Before the pall was thrown over them, Mr. BONAR, jun. Mr. ANGERSTZIN, jun. and Mr. Haxscry, accom panied the Rev. Mr. LOCKWOOD. the Rector of Cbis lelaurst, into the room to view, for the £Pst time, those awful and solemn proceedings, preparatory to the last offices being performed. Every necessary step being thus taken, the hour of eight was appointed for the interment; but circumstances afterwards induced Mr. BOMAR to fix nine o'clock in preference. Soon after eight o'clock the hearses, with six horses to each, and four mourning coaches and four, took their sta tion at the private door, which leads to the Common, about 100 yards from the lodge-gate ; the reason for so retired a spat being chosen, was to avoid the crowd collected together. Before the procession was got up in due order, it was eleven o'clock. In the first mour ning coach went Mr. and Mrs. BONAR, and Miss Bo- Nan the latter the only daughter ot the deceased.— In the second coach, Mr. HARKEY, Mr. Wecostrx, and Mr. AxoensTetri, jun. ; in the third, Mr. THOM- . SON, Mr. CHARLES HAMMERSLEY, Mr. GEORGE HAMS MERSLEY, lind Mr. ANOERSTEIN, sen. ; in the fourth, Mr. LocKwooD, Mr. LOEKE, Mr. WOLLASTON, and a young Lady. Three state carriages followed. The cavalcade moved slowly, attended by undertakers, pages, mutes, &c. around a part of "the heath, and from thence to the church at Chishhurgt ; where, after the performance of the usual rites, the coffins were carried, parallel with each other, to the grave, which is a vault eight feet square, erected since Wed- , nesday last, in a chosen spot. The Rev. Mr. Loot , WOOD performed the funeral service in a very impres sive manner; Mr. Bohan stepd on his right hand with Mrs. I3ostaa, holding one arm, and Miss BONAR the other. It was a most affecting spectacle ; but what added to the distress of the scene was to observe the agonised state of mind the amiable sufferers were in, whilst this awful visitation of PROVIDENCE was alluded to by the clergyman. The procession return. ed in the same order in which it went ; namely, th, coaches were preceded by the undertaker, mutes, &c. and attended by the same pages as before. On re entering the house, the scene so lately of the most perfect happiness, but now " a dreary void," Mi ss BONAR first fell a martyr to the acittetess of her feel ings, and Mrs. Boraaa followed—they were attacked by a series of fainting fits—tee was the only reitora live. From the appearance of Mr. BONAR in the procession to the church, and afterwards at the grave, he appeared to undergo severe paroxysms internally, his heart palpitating and his knees teem ing, and, without an impulse almost supernatural, it s was theta& he could not have borne up in so trying a situ.lt;ou. THE MURDERER. Nicholson has recovered the use of speech, but neither the Catholic Minister nor his medical atten dants have induced him to open his bps, except to own that he har lien a great timer." He lies on a truckle-bed in the butler's-room, adjoining the pantry, wherein two men and a police officer are in constant attendance. He passed the night of Thursday in a very tranquil state, and frequently dozed, but it was observed that he opened his eyes at all times when any mention was made by those about him of the murderous weapon used , or any :allusion to the had. ness of his temper. He eyed attentively every stran ger, and particularly noticed one of the coachmen, who went into his room after the funeral with a silk hat-band. Mr. Ert.err, the surgeon, who sewed up the wound, remarked particularly his determined con duct at the moment; he never winced, nor made an inclination to retract from the operation. He lies constantly on his back, with his head raised by pillows, and so-fixed is it, that he cannot move se as to give the arteries any play, or in other words, to prevent their motion connecting them again together. Mr. CONANT, the Magistrate, arrived about ten o'clock, yesterday, at the house, and investigated the proceedings as far as they went ; hut nehing arose to give any further clue to this horrible transaction. The Catholic Clergyman has never been alone with the culprit ; his right arm, and left thigh, betray evident marks of having received violent blows in some way ; Missing his blow with the poker, which fell upon himself, is supposed to have inflicted the latter bruises. Whether he really meant to rob the house, or not, cannot be ascertained, but one thing is cer tain, he gave no indication of having such an inten tion, for even the gold watches, suspended at the head of each bed, were not touched ; indeed the still remained in the same situation yesterday. II Clergyman who has visited the murderer, says, he i not an Irishman, but a native of Chester. Camden-place, where Mr. and Mrs. BOYAR Lain been so inhumanly murdered, took its name from tho celebrated antiquary and historian WILLIAM CIMDEN who died here in 1623. It is not certain who wer his immediate successors, but in 1765, it was put chased by CHARLES PRATT, Esq. who being create% a Peer, took the title of Lord Camden, Baron %) Camden-place, Kent. When the present Lord CAM DEN was Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, it was purchase' by WM. LUSHINGTONI Esq. at that time one of th. City Members, and afterwards sold to the late unfol tunate tenant. WORSHIP-STRIZT.--Yesterday Jeer Hader on, 70 years of ag l was charged with having enticed, wh.le playing iu Chiswe. street, near their homes, three female children, about five or sl years of age.
