A general meeting of the perhwmers of Drury-lane took place yesterday morning, in the two Green Itcronis 0 that Theatre, preparatory to the opening of the house for the season; when the Manager, according to annual custom, welcomed the several actors by a shake c,f the hand, and the Ladies by a salute, which Mr. Rarstot:u did so impartially that none of the lair (imes had reas .n to complain that " I►iutng went by favor,. I" The performances vet) , properl) commence with The School for Sandal--a due tribute of respect to the memory of one of the very best of our Comic 'Writers. Mrs. HENRY ,M30%8 is in treaty with the Drury. lane Company. There has not been another Actress of such interesting simplicity since the days of Mrs. STEPHEN KESIBLE, and Mrs. Menhir. Mr. STANLEY, from Bath Theatre, is to ni.ke tiis &lid at Drury-Line, .ts Rover, hr Ifild Oats. Mrs. BELLCHAIIBERS, .di. , is engaged fur the ap proa,hing season at Drury -lane, is said to possess a cosarafie voice than the Stage has possessed since the days of Mrs. K.EliNabY- Mrs‘TS. YOUNG and C. KEZIBLE are to succeed alternately to the parts tell vacant by the secession of Mr. KESHILE, at Covent Garden. Mr. Yours took leave of the Cork audie.tee on Friday, in the character of Harslet, for his own benefit, under the immediate patronage of the Mayor. London now ranks exactly as it did during th• ♦isit of the Sovereigns: it has its Kings and Queens, its Princes and Princesses, all ready for the opening of Drury-lane and Covent Garden. The Margate Theatre has this season been unpre cedentedly successful. The excellence of the sl; sa d . fie persons, under the active management of Favor, has been the principal cause of its success. All the stirs have made excellent benefits—Mut:rum and LUTON particularly so. The amateur Corps Dramatigoe of the Kilkenny Theatre are about to revive their theatrical labours, which have hitherto attracted all the Nobility and Gentry for miles round to that place, and have proved so beneficial to the purposes of humanity. The Emperor of all she Conjurors had his pocket picked of three pounds, the week before last, on York Race Course ! The late R. B. SHERIDAN used to relate a humor ous anecdote of one of his Constituents. It was at the time he was advocating a Parliamentary Reform. A Burgess knocked at his room door, and was admitted, he walked all round the edge of the room to avoid treading on the carpet, till he was opposite SHERIDAN* SHERIDAN bade him sit down, which ha did—tucking up his feet, is great dread of the carpet. be I'm glad, master, to hear of this iieform ie Parliamens."—" Ah (says SIILRIDAN) you are a Reformer, eh r' 0 yes, Sir ; but it will make ajd of odds, won't it, Sir, to , ome of the Member ?" Why that will depend on bow far Reform goes," says SHERIDAN. " Are you tor Universal St6Fra3e .1 Sir Mexclaimed the bur 4ess, as though he had been addressed in Greek. .6 Are you for Universal Suffrage, and annual Parliaments?"—" 1 don't know what you mean by ,tiff ranee, ;we vifir a good jd by trusting so long; .aid when Parliament is reformed, I hope we shall get our money a little sooner 1" PITC4IIIN ISLANA The remote Island of Pitcairn, peopled by the descend lots of the Mutineers of the BOVNTY, has !ray beta vishid by anwhe: British ship, the BRITON, from the Narrative of whim. Voyage, by Lieutenant .I. Sint Limit, I. M. we extract the fol:owing Interesting psnieulara On September 2, the Briton left the Marques.; Is!ands for Valpariso ; but in the second watch of Ilse night, was surprised by the sight of an islrmi. Day , light discovered huts, cultivation, and people; some nt whom launched their little canoes through :hr sue:, and approached the ship. Surprise was heighten ed to astonishment, when these canoes hailA the ship, in perfect English, and enquired her name, and who commanded her ? The mention of the nanies of Nigh, and of Christian, soon led to a discovery of the relation of these islanders to then visi ors; and the eldest native of the Island, Friday Fletcher Oc tober Christian, son of the mutineer, came on hoard. :410 conducted himself with the tttnr - sst propriety.__ Our Readers are acqu tinted scint the fat* of ; and they know that the real name of the Pa trise di of the Colony, now called John .dams, is .soniih; or, that the ship-name of Alexan der Smith, was previously J Adams, family name he 1144 resumed; and thin we think quite as I likely. The explanation given by these yeong men. of t..eir manners, is Isiiel44 pleasing: their confession of faith is the regular creed, ‘‘ I believe in Gun th- Fath'r," &c. their prayer, 6 , will arise and gn to My Faiher," fie.: their preference of the English 14n• race in their soninsiiii speech; their acknowledg- Georr,e let V:O4. Ki ; tecellec ton of Mryhew Fulger, Captain of the only ship that had landed oa equally excite our interest. Bet re we had finished our interrogatories the hour of breakfast had arrived, and we solicited our hall I c untipuen, as they styled themselves, to items:- palsy us b. 14w, and partake of our repast, to which they acquiesced without much ceremony. The circle in which we had surrounded them bring opened, hr.•ught to ete notice of Mackey, a little black ter rier. He was at first frightened, ran behind one of ti e Officers, and looking over his shoulder said, pointing to the dog, " 1 know what that is, it is a dog, I never saw a dog before—will it bite ?" Aflte 4 short pause, adthessed himself to Christian, say ing, with peat admiration, 6* It is a pretty thing tot to look at, is it not i" The whole of them were inquisitive, and in their questions as well as answers, bet►ayed a very great share of natural abilities. They asked the names of whatever they saw, and the purposes to which it was applied. This, they would say, was pretty—that they did not like, and were greatly surprized At our having so many things which they were not possessed of in the Island. The circumstance of the dog, the things which at each step drew their attention or crested their wondcr, retarded us on our road to the breakfast table, bur arriving there, we had a new cause for surprise.— The astonishment which before had been so strongly demonstrated in them, was now become conspiciii es its us, even to a much greater degree than when they hailed us in our native language ; and I must here confess I blushed when I sew Nature in its rre-,st simple state, offer that tribute of respect to the ase:i POTENT CitiC4Toll, which trom education I (La nie. perform, nor from Society had been taught its nece sky. Before they began to cat—on their knees, and giKb hands uplifted, did they implore permission to partake in per. ..e h:t w• I t before• them, and when they had eaten heartily, resuming their former atti tude, offered a fervent prayer of th inksgiving tor the indulgence they had just experienced. Our omission ul this ceremony did not escape their notice, for Chi is tian asked me whether it was not customary with us also? Here Nature was triumphant, for 1 should do myself an irreparable injustice, did I not with can dour acknowledge. I was both ensbarrAssed ;sod wholly at a loss for a sound reply, and evaded this pcor question, by drawing his attenti in to the cow, which was then looking' down the hatchway, and as he had never seen any of the species liskre, .t was a source of mirth and gratification to The hatted of these people to the black: is strongly rooted, send which doubtl ss owes its on to the early quari els which Christian and his full-wers had with the Otaneiteans after t' eir ari;eal at l'itcairo's ; to illustrate which, I shall here rel.te an occurrence which took place at breakfast. Soon after prang Christian had begun, a West Indian Black, %silo was one of the servants, entered the gun-room to attend table as usu4l. Chtistian looked at him sternly, r•ise, asked for his bat, and said, 4 I don't. like that black fellow, I must go," and it required some little per suasion, before he would again resume his seat.— The innocent Quashee was often reminded of the anecdote by his fellow servants. Alter coming along.side the ship, sa eager were they to get on board, that several of the canoes had been wholly abando..ed, and gone adrift. This was the occasion vi an anecdote which will sliesa most conspicuously the good nature of their dispositionso and the mode resorted to in deciding a double claim. The canoes being brought back to the ship, tl,e Cap tain ordered that one of them should remain in each, when it became a question to which that duty should devolve; however it was soon adjusted, for Mackey observed that he supposed they were all equally anxi ous to see the Ship, and the fairest way weuid be for them to cast lots, as then there would be no ill will on either side. This was acceded to, and those to whom it fell to go into the boat, departed without a murmur. Scarcity of provisions obliged Captain Sir T. Staines to contract his stay at the island to a few hours; during which time none but the Captains went - on shore; where they were received by the head of the family. John Adams, who is described as a fine looking old man, approaching to sixty year. of age. He denied being active in the mutiny. Says the informant of oar author, 44 He told me he was perfectly aware bow deeply he was involved ; that by following the fortune of Christian he had not only sacrificed every 'thins to his country, but that his life was the necossiry for feiture for such an act, and he supposed would be exacted horn him . ..as he ever to return. Ititwith branding all these circumranczs, uo Ling teottl.d be able to occasion him so much gratification as that of seeing once more, prior to his deatii, that country wi.icti gave Ilan bitch, and from which he bad been so lung estranged. ere was a sincerity in his speech—l can 'oadly describ e it—b ut i t h a d a tivry poa - erftil ence in persuad.rg me these were his real sentiments. great a clesree, that 1' My interest was excited to so 1 , . . • °retail him a Conveyance ft'''. hisnself, with any of h 4 family who chose to accompany him. He appelrcd gleasrcl at the proposal. and as no one w,s then pis. s• nt, he s; nt for his .wife and children. Tho rest of !iis :He community stirtrunded the door. He corn. mteticated his desire, and solicited their acquit scence. Appal?: d at a. request not less sudden than in uppu sit.:4l to their wis:43, they were all at a loss for a re iily. li;s chatmOg daughter, aithonsh inundated with tears, first broke the silence—' Oh, de not, Sir,' f.iii s!le, I take frnit me my father ! do not take .t aay try best, my dearest friend.'. Her voice tailed lier—she was tnutbie to proceed—leaned her head upon her [aid, and gave lull vent to her grief. His r i:e too (an Ot iheitAt) expressed a lively sorrow. Tl-e wishes of Ad.zns Rion became known -among the o o , t i liet tur s e , ; 7 l l 4 i n ti r t an c i,i t pathe%c solicitations for lux stay ye was dry—the !zid rear stood in those tit t h e nits—the women shed them in hod abundance.

To have t'.ken him front a circle nt such friends, would have ill become a fecitn: heart—to bave forced hins away in oppo s itio n to t h e i r j o i nt and earnest entreaties, I would haveAseen RP outrage on humanity.
