We leave our Readers to make the applications which this anecdote will not fail to suggest. The waspish irritation of a little mind, descending to unworthy re prisals against the insects of virulence that bussed amend him, is nowhere visible here: at all events, Jonu,', Duke of Msnutoaouon—when his life comes to be contrasted by the historian, with that of the modern aspirant after similar - fame and glories— must stand acquitted . of all arbitrary RIIIIIREgo, when he changed the sword for the insignia civil power, and bad at least as good an opportunity, as that which the Duke of WZLLINGTON has used, to trample under his feet the privileges and rights of opinion.

The noble behaviour of the Court appealed to, in reversing so tyrannical wudgment, is the more interesting to contemplate at such a moment, when we reflect on the disgracefully opposite results which the Old Bailey has just exhibited. We always said, that regeneration would come from France : sal vation for European liberties—even those of Eng land not excepted—is dawning there. It is from France alone that the light must emanate, which will dispel the darkness of despotism that sits on Portu gal—liberalise Flanders, now groaning under a new repression and, eventually, constitutionalise Northern Italy. Nay, there will burst a light —or we are much mistaken—from that region of politi cal improvement, which will impart an inteneer beauty, as well as security to institutions here, which for leo many centuries have boasted, and fairly boasted, to be without their parallel.

Last night night the tragedy of the Earl of Essex was re vived at this theatre—for what purpose cannot be easily conjectured. It is a composition at once as unsuited to the taste of an English audience, as it must ever be un profitable to the treasury of an English theatre. The management we consider still more to blame for its re vival, upon the present occasion ; because, as its repre sentation may be said to involve the destiny of a new ap pearance for public favour, it would have been kinder to have announced a new candidate with fairer chances of propitiating his audience ; and many opportunites offered for him—DARN, for instance, in the Exile—which is a piece that would have brought a better whole piece.— Mr. G. Berm Err, re-appeared for the first time these four years, and sustained as well the uphill part of Essex as could be expected—the excellencies were his ows—the faults entirely those of his author ; and we do 'hops the good sense of the Managers will never be taxed - with the repetition of this tragedy. Mr. BENNETT was well supported by Mr. ABBOTT as Southampton ; and Min LACY displayed much credit in Elizabeth. The Ladies of her Court, however, should copy somewhat of its Queen's costume—that is—if they are pqrmitted to do so. The house was full at half-price. Prince LEOPOLD left his residence at Claremont yes terday morning, and paid a visit to the Duchess of KENT, at her apartments in the King's Palace at Kensington.
