COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. Macbeth was played last night—the part of Medea by a Gentleman, it being his first aprearance in Lon. don. The debutante, with.ut giving proof of veryemi nent abilities, deserves the praise due to ease and manli ness of deportment, ant general justness of conception. The scene in which Lady Macbeth urges the murder of Duncan was played naturally, and the final resolution taken with a,befirting effort t. to bend up each corporeal' :yent to the terrible feat." In the dagger scene, and that which follows the murder of Duncan, there was no imitation of any preceding performer, nor any undue straining after effect. It was sensible, straight-for ward acting, not without some touches of a more elevated character. In the banquet scene he played with force, and went through the troublesome interview with the witches a; well as most of his predecessors: In the last act, the beautiful expresions of melancholy and disgust we , e feebly g;Ttn, but the more stirring passages were not without effect. On the whole, the effort of the new performer was highly creditable to his intelligence and good taste; and, without fixing his rank on the London hoards, it establishes his claim to further opportunities for acquiring distinction. .Miss LACY played Lady . Macbeth with diligence and clearness. Letters from M ••ssina of the 17th December, amongst other information, mention the loss of the 11 bernia on the 9th, on the coast of Calabria. The crew were saved, but the ,ship and cargo were totally lost.

Letters from Trieste of the 22d December, are re ceived; they ate silent as to the affairs of Turkey and Greece, and are confined to commercial information.

We understand, that a number of the power-loom factories in this city and neighbourhOod o are to com mence working at half-tine on Monday next. In the present state of the market, this is, certainly, a very prudential measure.—Glrogote Carrier, Jots. 7. Two men have been perambulating the villages in East Kent, and with unblushing'effrontery walked into the various shops, and announced they were "sent by authority" to alter their weights and measures to the new standard. They soon bus;ed themselves for some little time about the weights, &c. and then demanded a fee of 10s. which in most instances was paid. R. Hilton, a boy about eleven years of age, having on Saturday week spent his week's wages at a public house in Stafford, was turned out of doors by his ex asperated father, who lives in the neighbourhood of Lane-end, and was obliged to seek shelter and lodging in a new unfinished building, in which he was lound on Monday morning in a most pitiable condition, without much sign of life. The poor lad shortly after expired, and the Coroner's Jury returned a verdict of—" Died by the inclemency of the weather."

Jam Gin», a shoe-milker — in the City, was indicted . for assaulting Daniel Mario*, a bricklayer, and his wife, on the 15th of November. It appeared that the defendant had a country house near Edmonton, from which some of his pigs had strayed and gotimpounded. The prosecutor was charged with having been instru mental in putting the vagrant grunters into winter (ratters, and an assault was the cthnsequence. The complainant said, that his breast was black and blue, and that he was at death's door till this very morning. He admitted, however, that he had called the defend. ant's wife a liar in the presence of her servants. The defendant had a stick in his hand when he waited on the prosecutor, but he only punched him with his knuckks doubled inwards—(Lnughler). During the course of the trial, the prosecutor, who was a diminutive odd-looking Personage, kept his hand upon his breast, and when he happened to forget h mself the hand dropped down, to the great annoyance of his watchful wite, who always reminded him o' the pain in his breast, and put up his hand, to the great amusement of the Court. This Lady had more to say than t'4e Counsel on both sides, and she even outdid the Drctor's aperient and pectoral draughts, by the virtue of her homely drugs, no doubt thinicin .3 , that— " ••••••=mm The sovereign'st thing on earth, Was her own spruce beer for an inward bruise." For she gave the poor fellow sprUce beer the last thing at night and the fist thing in the morning. The dear man was at death's door, and took to his bed ; but he took care to get up by day-break, not liking the visions of the night. He was represented to be upwards of sixty years of age, but he himself said that he was only five or s'at and forty, and his wife confirmed him in this statement, ndtwithstanding that his Counsel insisted that he must have forgotten his age. The wife, however, said, that he was not a bit older, for she ought to know—(Laughter). The defendant denied having assaulted the prosecutor at all. : The Jury found him Guilty of the assault. Fined .10/. with liberty to speak to the prosecutor. Aim Morris, an Irish woinan of decent bus reduced appearance, was indicted far asssul i g Mary Thorn, who stated that she lived in Stanhope-street, Mayfair, where a Gentleman, who went by the name of Wall, and a Lady who passed as his wife, had lodged with her for eight months. On the day in question, the de fendant wanted to see this Gentleman, and was told he was, not at home; but she insisted on going up stairs, and upon Mrs. Thorn's attemptingcto prevent her from so doing, she put her fist in her fa e, and would have struck her but for the inter ference of the prosecutrix's son. Mrs. Morris stated in her defence. that she has been married several years ago to Mr. Morris, an Oitcer in the army, whom she had followed all through the Peninsula in the late war. About four years ago, however, he deserted her and two children, and went to live with another woman. She had, consequently, instituted a suit against hints is Doctors' Commons for , alimony, but be had succeeded, by assuming various disguises and false names, in keeping himself concealed from her for a considerable period, until one day she saw the woman who lived with him conveyed from St. Martin's w itch-house to Dow-s:rcet Pol'ce-effi:e, from which she had her dodged to the Louse of Mrs. Thorn; in Stanhope -street, where, upon her calling them, she tour's] her husband living with this woman under the names of Mr. end Mts. Wall, whilst she (Mrs. Morris), with her surviving son, the other having died, were endeavouring to subsist upon a scanty allowance from •he parish. Mts. Thorn then proposed to her to live comfortably with Mr. Morris and the other woman, and the neighb ors would know nothing about them; hut she iefused to associate with her husband " so long as he lived with another hussey." The discovery of his residence caused him to be aireqed for some of her, debts; however, he got out again ; and upon her calling at his lodgings on a subsequent day, Mrs. Thorn ee njed that he was there; but she, well knowing that he' was up stairs, insisted upon going up. arid there accord ingly she found him and his lady. Tnis was all she had done, nor had she the slightest intention of striking Mts. Thorn, or using any violence whatever, beyond merely forcing her way up stairs to her husband, which she conceived she had a right to do, when she and her child were starving on parish bounty. Mrs. Thorn, in reply to a question from the Court, said that she had always considered the other woman as her lodger's wife; but now she " rather believed that the defendant was his true wife." The Jury returned • verdict of Guilty, under circumstances;' (meaning, of palliation.) The COURT sentenced the defendant to pay a line of one shilling, and to be discharged. Henry Carton was indicted for an assault upon Hes ter, the wife of Cooper, on the 26th of September. The defendant, it appeared, was driving a horse and cart at a rapid rate, through Broad -street, Golden square, as the prosecutrix was crossing to another street with a child in her arms ; and owing to his negligence, the poor woman was knocked down ; the child was thrown out of her arms and severely bruised, whilst the cart passed over herself, and hurt her so seriously, that ' she was confined to her bed for a fortnight. Mr. Az.s.zy proposed, on the part of the defendant, to submit to a verdict of Guilty, and pay the prosessutria SI. Mr. Puu.urs aa behalf of the proseeutriz, alter some hesitation, assented to this proposal. The Jury, therefore, returned a ♦erdict of Guilty, and the de fendant was sentenced to pay a tins of 101. to the King, with liberty to speak to the prosecutriz.

We base great pleasure, however, in observing, that although the Honourable Gentleman has, for a short time past,. been suffering under an attack of nervous head-ache, of more than ordinary violence, he is not allicted with any malady from which seriaus consequences nerd be apprehended.

Mr. ABRAMAIIS opened the, pleadings, and Mr. EVANS stated the plaintiff's case to the Jury, in s low a tone of voice as to be nearly inaudible in the Stiident's box ; we understood hilts, however, to say, that the plaintiff was a tailor, and that the first defendant was the celebrated Mr. Graham, and the othei defendant was a scientific Gentleman connected with him in hi, pursuits. Some time in the last year a hallo-in ascent was contemplated by these Gen lemen, but the balloon needed considerable repairs, and the plaint'ff WAS en gaged, under the immediate superiptendence of the defendants, to cf.) such repairs, and it was fur a remu• neration for his time and trouble upon th it occasion that he brought the present action; he had made a very moderate demand for his trouble, but the defendants had refused to pay it, and he (Mr. Evans) understood that the witnesses that would be called before the Jury, would say, that a far larger sum than that wh'ch the plaintiff had demanded, would be a very moderate re muneration for his trouble. A 'witness was called, but before his eunilnation was pro. seeded in, the Luso Cuter JUSTICE suggested a reference, which was agreed to, and a nominal verdict . was consequently found for the . . LANCELOT SIIADWELL, Esq. of Lincoln's Inn, has just canvassed the Borough of Ripon, in the place of Mr. gins, who, it is understood, will retire on the dissolution of Parliament. The public-house called the Elephant, in Fenchurch street, supposed to he one of the oldest in London, is condemned to be pulled down. It is not perhaps gene rally known, that in this house the inimitable Hooarru enjoyed many of his convivial meetings, and on the walls of the tap-room of which are two paintings from his hand of convivial meetings, which may probably contain portraits not only of himself, but of characters well known in his day. It is much feared, that in con sequence of theie being painted on wall, no part of them will be able to be preserved. The Corporation of London are in a very great dif ficulty with respect to the Courts of Justice at Guild hall. The Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas suffers particular annoyance, not only on' ac count of the reverberation 'of the sound of his own and other voices, but the doors are so unfortunately disposed as to cause the wind to blow upon him with peculiar violence. In the course of last Term he called the door-keeper, and ordered him, upon pain of a 10/. penalty, not to allow any person who was not a Barrister to pass through' the -doer through which the wind makes its entrance in so intolerable a manner. Some of those who have been proposing a remedy for tlae echo are of opinion that the purpose would be an swered by lowering the roof; others think it would be more advisable to have a false roof. The fact is, that very few of the architects of the present day have any notion of the doctrine of acoustics, in which their inimitable inaster„Sir Christopher Wren, was as well skilled as in the other great principles of the art. Some persons in the City some time ago thought proper to remove the pulpits in the churches built by Sir Chris topher from their original position ; but after turning them one way, and then another, they found, that the spots from which they had presumed to shove them were the very best adapted to the voice, and they ac cordingly resigned their judgment to that of the archi tect of St. Paul's. Friday a barbarous and cowa►dly robbery was perpetraa d on a female, on the road between Cali muck-houses and Leichtown March, near Port of Monteith. She was knocked down by a fellow who tied her hands behind her back, and fastened her feet, and, after having stopped her mouth to keep her from crying for assistance, he ro'sbed her of a one-pound note, Is. 6d. of silver, and some peace ; four ells and a half of black cloth, nine ells of checked cotton cloth,l some cotton shining, some tea, sugar, soap, and number of other arc.cles. He also took from one of' her fingers a gold ring. She lay neatly two hours in a senseless state, occasioned by the blows she had re ceived ; and when she recov,ered a little, it was with the greatest difficulty she got her feet disentangled,. so as to be able to walk back to Calimuck. Thursday a Vestry-meeting was specially convened at Cambridge, to take into consideration the conduct of John Allum, the keeper of the workhouse in the parish o f the Holy Trinity. The Meeting was numerously attended, and it appeared that a poor dimi n u t i ve y oung man, of the name of Robert Silk, about 25 years of age, had been in the house some years; he WAS dumb and an ideas, The charge against Allum was, that he had, during the severity of this season, and for a long time previous, confined this poor creature in an out house without any fire, penned up in one corner, there placed upon a board without shoes or stockings, and with his arms bare, and only a petticoat and some coarse covering for the upper part of his body ; there he was accustomed to remain till night, trampling in his filth, when he was put into a crib or manger, with a small portion of short straw. There was no chair or stool in the hovel for this unfortunate victim of severity to rest upon. The cruelty thus practised reached the ears of Mr. Alderman Coe, a Magistrate, who well to the workhouse, and saw the young man in the situation above described; he instantly ordered him to he re moved into the house, there to be clothed with shoes and stockings, and plaied near the fire, and otherwise properly taken care of. Two days afterwards the worthy Magistrate called again to see the youth, when, to his atter astonishment, he found no attention had been paid to his directions by the master; but the unfortunate creature was still standing upon the board, penned in the same corner, and apparently in extreme pain; still withont shoes or stockings, and the very water and dirt he stood in gushing up between his toes. Mr. Fantasi a the surgeon, who in his visit accompanied the worthy Alderman, instantly ordered him to be removed into the house: he examined his feet and legs, and expressed some apprehension lest mortification should ensue, and gave directions for them to be put in a warm-bath, after other precautionary measures had been taken. •A Vestry Meeting:wai held a few days after this happened, to transact the ordinary bissiness of the parish, when Mr. Alderman Cos attended, and informed the- parish of what had occurred. A iluM was instantly suspended, and directions given for calling a Meeting to inquire into his conduct, when, the statement-brink confirmed, the Meeting unanimously agreed instantly •to discharge him, for acts of cruelty, tram his situation.—C'dnabridge Independent. bPONTING INTELLIGENCE.

A most tremendous battle was fought on Saturday, at Waltham Marshes, between Warminster and Devises. for 10f. Spada. in which Moss, the tinman, and the Champion of the Prpvinciakt, was beat, to iise the language of our Correspondent, ss to death's door." The winner is young Flowers, son of the blacksasith (who was twice defeated by Moss), a fine young man of 12st. 41b. 19 years of age, and designated in the West, as the Jem Betel*, or the day. Moss, who it 34, was backed at odds but was carried senseless away, and the winner will never be so good again. Pat Magee and Ralph iloscow were to have again contested for pugilistic fame, and 420 a-side were staked. A further deposit was to have been made at Liverpool on Monday, when both pinks were present ; but ilisacow's money was not tonbcoming. and the " Emeralder" was obliged to content himself with pocketing the .420 forfeited. • PIGEON SHOOTING.
