I do not know a more mortifying thing than to be - conscious of a foregone delight, with a total oblivion -of the person and Manner which conveyed it. In dreams, I often stretch and strain after the comae nonce of, Bdwin, whom I oace. saw in Peeping Tom. - I cannot catch a feature of him. He is no more to me than Nokes or Piakethman. Parsevas, and still more bodd; wete near being lost to me; till I was refreshed With their portraits (fine treat) the other day ot Mr. Mathews's gallery at Highgate. There hang the players, in their single persem, and in grouped scenes, from the Restoration—Bettertons, Booths, Garricks lh justifying the' prejudices which we enter tain for em—the Bracegirdles, the Mountfords, and the Oldfields, fresh as Cibber liar described them— the Woffington (a true Nogarth) upon a couch, dal lying and dangerous—the screen scene in Brinsley's famous comedy, _with Smith and Mrs. Abingdon, vliom I have .pot seen, and the rest, whom having Len, I see "still there. There k Henderson, anrival fed in Consus, whom I saw at second hand in the elder Harley—Harley, the rival of Holman, in Ho ratio—Holman, 'with the bright glittering teeth in Lothario, and the deep paViour's sighs in . Romeo— the jolliest pei•son (" our son is fat") of any Hamlet I have yet seen, with the most laudable attempts (for a personable man) at looking melancholy—and Pope, the abdicated monarch of tragedy and comedy, in Harry the Eighth and Lord Townley. There hang the two Aickins, brethren in mediocrity—Wroughton, who in Kitely seemed to have forgotten that in prouder days he had personated Alexander—the specious form of John Palmer, with the speciareffrontery of Bobby —Beasley, with the trumpet-tongue, and little Quick, (the retired Dioclesian of Islington) with his squeak' like a Barelemew fiddle. There are fixed, cold as in life, the immoveable teatures - of Moody, who, afraid of o'erstepping nature, .iometimes stopped short of her—and the restless fidgetiness of Lewis, who, with n 6 Mich fears, not seldom leaped o the other side. There hang Farren and Whitfield, and _Burton and Phillimore, names of small account in those times, but which, remembered - now, or casually recalled by the sight of an old play-bill, with their associated re cordations, can " drown an eye unused to flow." — There too hangs (not far removed from them is death) the graceful plainness of the first Mrs. Pope, with a voice unstrung by age, but which, in her better Clays, must have competed with the silver tones of Barry, so enchanting in decay do I remember it—of all her lady parts - exceeding herself in the Lady Quakeress (there earth touched heaven!) of O'Keefe, 'when she played it to the "merry cousin" of Lewis—Mrs. Mat tocks, the seniiblest of viragos—and Miss Pope, a gen tlewoman, to the verge of ungentility, with Church ill's compliment still burnishing upon her py Honeycomb lips. There are the two Bannisters, and Sedgwick, and Kelly, and Dignum (Diggy), and the by-gone features of Mrs. Ward, matchless in Lady Lover ule ; and the collective majesty of the whole Keruble fa mily, and (Sliakspeate's woman) Mira Jordan; and, by her, two Antics, who in former and in latter days have chiefly beguiled us of our griefs ; whose por traits we shall strive to recal, for the sympathy 'ol those who may not have had the benefit of viewing the matchless Highgate Collection. ~:,_ - .'• ' 'tl teft • ence) as legs:-Aqestibt or a scruple must haft dwide . him totterot sighTiave puffed him clown ; the ilffit ,of a frown had : staggered hii n , a w ri n kl e made :WWI ._lose his balance.

Your whole .conscience stirred with Banoi:,ter's perform. ance of Walter, in the Children in the Wood—hove dearly beautiful it was!--but Dicky seemed like_a thing, as Shakspeare says of Love, too young to know whit conscience is.

QOCRATES, by his discourse on Marriage, so en -10 raptured his auditors with the subject, that, the married men flew to their wives, and the bachelur. hastened to be wedded; and " The Spectator" has affirmed, that the word" wife" is the most agreeable and delightful name in nature. The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the de sideratum of our enjoyment ; teeming not only with happiness on earth, but disposing the soul itself to harintinize with bliss hereafter. Previous, however, to entrrins into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those hapless instances, which, while they excite the commiseration of the beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self reproach. Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the reiaature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the n.nUral dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the ago nized sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we address otirselves, offering hope—energy--mus cuter strength—felicity ; nor will our advances appear question :ole, sanctioned as they are by the multiplied proofs of twenty years successful experience. The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath—for the female habit is often constitutionally weak— yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every re laxation of the generative economy, we pledge our ability to, cure speedily, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the' unfeeling empyric from the position so presumptuously taken tip, we deviate front general principles with less hesitation; and confident in our own honourable integrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the suffering community of either sex (especially those entering into matrimonial life) at mice to stir house, where daily attendance is given for personal con sultation; and letters from the country are inunodiately an swered ; these must contain a remittance for Advise and Medi cine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, how ever distant.

SU ETT. O for a "slip-shod muse," to celebrate in numbers, loose and shambling as himself the merits and the person of Mr. Richard Suett, comedian ! Richard, or rather Dicky Suett—for so in his life time he was best pleased to be called, and time bath ratified the appellation—lieth buried on the north side of the cemetery of Holy Paul, to whose service his non-age and tender years were set apart and dedicated. There are who do yet remember him at that period-,-. his pipe clear and harmonious. He would often speak of his chorister days, when he was " cherub Dicky." Whit clipped his wings, or made it expedient that he should exchange the holy for the profane state; whether be had lost hii good voice (his best recom mendation to that office), like Sir John, " with hal looing and singing of Anthems or whether he was adjudged to lack something, even in those early years, of the gravity indispensable to an occupation which professed) to " commerce with the skies".-1 could never rightly learn ; but we find him, after the probation of a twelvemonth or so, reverting to a secular condition, and become one of us. I think he was not altogether of that timber, out of which cathedral seats and sounding-boards are hewed.. But if a glad heart—kind and therefore glad—be any part of sanctity, then might the robe of Motley, with which he invested himself with sn much humility after his deprivation,, and which he wore so long with so much blameless satisfaction to himself and to the pub lic, be accepted for a surplice—his white stole, and a*. The first fruits of his secularization was an engage ment upon the boards of Old Drury, at which neat e he commenced, as I have been told, with adopting the manner of Parsons in old men's characters. At the period in which most of us knew him, he was no mere an imitator than he was is any true.sense himself .imitable. He was the Robin Good-Fellow of the stage: He came in to trouble all things with a welcome per plexity, himself no whit troubled for the matter. He was known, like Puck, by his note—Hd! Ha ! Het ! sometimes deepening to Ho ! Ho . ! Ho ! with an ir resistible accession, derived perhaps remotely from his ecclesiastical education, fcreign to his prototype of -0 La! Thousands of hearts yet respond to the chuckling 0 La! of Dicky Suett, brought back to remembrance by the - faithful transcript of his ft iend Mathews's mimicry. The " force of nature could no further, zo." He drolled upon the 4tock of these two syllables richer than the cuckoo. Care, that troubles all the world, was forgotten in his composition. Had he. bad but two grains (nay, half a grain) of it, he could never have sup ported himself upon those two spider's strings, which served him :Sin the latter part of his unmixed exist- _ . But we were .not to escape so easily. No sown' did we fall into slumbers than the same image, only more perplexing, assailed us in the shape of dreanis. Not one Minden,' but five hundred, were dancing before us, like the faces which, wlether you will ur no, come when you have been taking opium —all the -trange combinations which this strangest of ell strange mortals ever shot his proper countenance into, from the Jay he came commissioned to dry up. the tears of the town for the loss n of the now almost forgotten Eiwiti. 0 for the poser of the pencil ko have fixed them when we awoke! •A season or two since there was exhibited a llogarth gallery. We des not see why there should not be a Munden gallery. In richness and variety the latter would not fall far short of the former.• There is one face of Farley, one face of Knight, one face (but what a one it is!) of Liston r but Mun den has none that you can properly pin down, and call his. When you think he has exhausted h4bata tery of looks, in unaccountable warfare with your gravity, suddenly he sprouts out an entirely new set of features, like Hydra. Ile is not one, bat a legion. Not so much a comedian, as a company. it his name could be multiplied like his countenance, it might fill a play-bill. He, and he alone, literally i makes faces : applied to any other person, the phrase lis a m'ere figure, denoting ceitain modifications of the human cow:ten:lnce. Out of some invisible wardrobe he dips for faces, as his friend Suett used for wigs, and fetches them out as easily. We should not be surprised to see him some day put out the head of a river horse; or come forth a pewit, or lapwing, or some feathered 'metamorphosis. We have seen this gifted actor in .Sir 'Christopher Curry—in Old Dornion—diffuse a glow of semis ment which has made the pulse of a crowded theatre beat like that of one man; when he has come in aid of the pulpit, doing good to the moral heart of a people. We have seen some faint approaches to this sort of excellence in other players. Bu: in what has been truly denominated the " sublime of farce," 'Stun den standsout as single and unaccompanied asHogarth, trogarili; strange to tell, had no followers. The school of Munden began, and must end with himself. 'Can any man wonder, like him ? can any man see ghosts, like him? or fight with his own shadow—sessa—, its-he does in that strangely-neglected thing, the Cob bler of Preston—where his alternations from the Cob• bier to the Nagnitico, and from the Magnifico to the Cobbler, keep the brain of the spectator in as wild a ferment as if some Arabian Night were being acted .before him, or as if Thalaba were rip tale! Who like him Can throw, or ever attempted to throw, a supernatural interest over the commonest daily-life objects? A ale or a joint-stool, in his conception, rises into a dignity equivalent to Cassiopeia's chair. It is invested with constellatory importance. You cannot speak of it With snore deference, if it were mounted into the .firmament. A beggar in the hands of Michael Anger°, says tuieli - rose the Pa triarcli'of koquit: ' SO the gusto of Muaden anti 'Oates And ennobles wh:it it touches. His pots and Ms ladles are as grand and primal as the seething pots and hooks seen in old prophetic vision. A tub of butter, contemplifed by .him, Amounts to a Pla tonic idea. Ile under stands a loiol mutton in its quiddity, • He stands wondering 'mid the coMmon plaice materials of life, lik. priraavai man, with the sun and-stars about him.
