THEATRES. DRIIRT-LAWL—•Last night, the Play of the Cattle Spectre, was performed Mr. Res, in the part of Os wend, reunite:lel an equal degree of felicity and effect : lie was much applauded. Mrs. MARDyie, who performed Angela for the first time,appeased to uslvith many claims to praise. The credulous , loquac ious, inquisitive Alice, found an admirable representative in Mrs. Stinnes, whose genuine comic hummer drew down reneated applause. The agreeable Ballet of The Bridal of fkra was next brought forward, in which the graceful movements of Miss SMITH and Mr. OSCAR Benez were. as usual, highly admired. --After this a New Melo-Drama was produced, called The lanite/ter's Daughter, founded on Soutnav's ballad, The Maid of the Inn." May, the heroine of the Piece ( Miss KELLY) is in love with Richard, a young sailor (Wattoice), who is associated with a band of smugglers. The Piece opens with die bur ning and explosion of a vessel of the smugglers, one 'of whom, in revenge, murders the Gauger, in conse quence of whose information the vessel had been taken. Richard meets with Harold, the murderer, soon after the deed was perpetrated, and at his soli citation assists him :o cr.nvey away the body. In the mean tame Mary, to win a wager and to shcw her want of fear at ghosts, goes to the close cf an old abbey at midnight to plucks slip of yew : The smug glers pass at the time with the body of the Gauger, and the hat of Richard drops off. Mary conceals herself, and perceiving that a murder has been cons. mined, but not recognising the persons to those who passed her, carries off the hat, and a presumption i 4 the guilt thus falls on her lover. The Drama, hov. ever, does not, like the Ballad, end here. Richard is apprehended and confined, but contrives to escape, sod in the mean time proofs are brought forward of his innocence, or rather of the guilt of Harold. The latter urges him to fiy in a boat during a violent storm, in the hope that be, and with him all clue to a disco very of the murder, would have been lost. The boat sinks, but Richard clings to a rock, and is rescued from it by the efforts of his mistress:--and thus the Piece ends. The interest of the Piece is strong and well kept up, though it but slightly approaches to the terrific effect of the catastrophe of the Ballad.— The characters are drawn not with much power, but with tolerable correctness. There was a sufficient quantity of pistols missing fire, and hair-breadth escapes, according to the approved receipts for Melo dramas ; which, together with a little' amusement from tee Gauger (fit:ones), a Dutchman, (T. P. Coma), and a busy foolish Justice of the Peace . , won it the favour of the Easter audience. The acting too of WALLACIC sand Miss kELLY was very good. It was loudly applauded, and given out for repetition. COYENT•DARDEN.— This Theatre re-opened last night after the recess with Cymbeline, in which Mr. &writ displayed his usual abilities, and ie;eived enthusi astic applause ; and a new Grand Romantic Melo drama, called Robinson Crusoe j or The Bold Buccaneer,. The title of this Piece is almost a sufficient explana tion of its plot. It shows that it is taken from that pet of Rubinson Crusoe's story, in which he ob tains the means of quitting his Island, by rescuing the Captain of a merchant vessel from the hands of his rebellious crew. The only alterations made con sist in this—that the Captain is turned into Crume's son, Diego, who, like a new Tattsoscuus, has gone io search of his father, but more careful than his ancient prototype, has carried his mother along with him. Crone, whose force is increased by Friday', father, whom he rescues at the opening of the Piece, by the Mate of his son's vessel, who remains faithful to his Commander, and by Diego himself and his mo. ther (ler she Wits most heroically),' surprises some of the mutineer!, and at the end of the first act seems to hive conquered all opposition. They effett their escape, however, and even get Crum into their power. After a variety of well managed and interesting vi. cissitudes, ' the rightful party triumph through the assistance and ingenuity of Friday and his father, the latter of wham !stings a large number of his country men to the succour of his deliverers. Dances of Europeans and Savages celebrate the victory : the mutineers are left on the Island, and the whole family embark to return to the counts y.—Considerable into. 'res . t arising from the story itself and the skill with which the various incidents am managed ; a dagger fight, executed with great spirit by bleats,. Botootia and NORUAN, in the characters of Chieftains of hostile tribes ; an elegant dance, in which the three Miss Denims were justly encored; respectable dialogue, considerable splendour of scenery, and appropriate music, secured a most' rapturous reception to this Rem, which possesses sufficient intrinsic merits to maintain, for a considerable time, the favour which it acquired last night. Mr. FARLEY did ample justice to Rolfinsen Crime, as well as GRIMALDI to Friday— Emma' to the Mate—Tokinx to the Baths:rasa— BIADICIIMID to the cowardly Steward,' and Mrs. PAR KER to Gush', wife. The last scene produces a most templet* optic illusion.

BADLRa'S WRLLL —Last night ois elegant little Theatre opened for the season -with mat eicelleat Pieces and new performers. • The sehA of the per formances met with great approbation from an Over. Bowing audience. Oa the appearance of Mr. PAULO he was loudly cheered, in his character of Cloves; — mach opposition had been threatened by the friends of Mr. Gassiam, who 'rad personified the Clown for the last twenty years, and during the Pantomime ik was feebly kept up ; bat the spectators only consider ing die actor belors them, who displayed talrOlS of as superior order, itippetted him. by drowning all-un xnerjted opposition.

A brick-maker, on Plumstmul Common, about a mile below Woolwich, had a shaft or well dug, to the depth of about 180 feet, for procuring sand, chalk,' &c. At the depth of about 80 feet from the surface of the earth was an entrance into a chamber, from which two of his workmen had been some time em ployed in digging sand for the brick-makers: one of the two was a married man, having six children ; the other was single. On Friday, the 28th March, the brother of the single man, passing the mouth of the well, observed, to his great terror and surprise, that the earth near it, and over the chamber or mine, where he supposed his brother was working, had con siderably sunk in, and fearing for his safety, ran to the shaft, and receiving no answer to his loudest call, procured assistance, and descended in the bucket to the entrance of the chamber, which he found com pletely chocked up with dry gravel, sand, &c. Sus pended in the bucket, with lOU feet of the well still inder.liim, he applied his shovel to the loose earth, which caused it to run like sand through an hour glass, until it entirely filled up the 100 lees of well under him ; and, finding the earth still ready to fol low the motion of his shovel, with no prospect of getting at his brother, and unfortunate companion, recourse was had to the assistance of some well dig gels, who, after working about 24 hours, gave up the search for the bodies. The Magistrates and Pa rish-officers of Pluni,tead then applied to the Engi neer Departmet.t at Woolwich, who immediately sent a company of sappers and miners, who commenced their operations on Saturday week, since which time thirty men have been employed without intermission,' day and night (being relieved every eight hours with fresh men), in mining in the most scientific manner round the part of the earth that has fallen in, in or der to discover the bodied, which they succeeded in doing yesterday evening (Saturday, sth April) in a chamber they themselves had excavated. They were lying dead in the remote part of it a one appears to have been injured by the earth having fallen upon him, and to. have been dragged out by the other to the place where they were found; the other died resting on the breast of his companion. Too much praise cannot be given to the parish officers of Plum stead, for their attention and anxiety to recover the bodies; two or three of theria being in constant at= tendatice, day and night, for eight days, in adminis tering refreshmeats, Ste. to the sappers, &c. during their long and Most laborious employment. The widow of one of them, whose case is much to be de plored, was also, without intermission, in most anxi, ous attendance. The sappers and miners worked in the most ardent manner for eight days, each man labouring most earnestly 16 out of every 24 hours. Yesterday an Inquest was held at the Fox and Hounds public-house, in the palish of Plumstead, be fore one of the Coroners for the county of Kent, on the bodies of the above unfortunate men: the'r names were Francis Wiltshire and James Cox. The Jury, after hearing some witnesses, found a verdict of— Accidental Death.—Cox had been a private in the marines, Ir.= which he was discharged at Wool wich. •weave months ago. :h, about L' During the morning service at the Chapel Royal, Brighten, on Good 'Friday, the hlicibter, the Rev. Mr. Lc, % ELL, was interrupted in his sermon by the sudden fall of a portion of the cieling, about a yard in diameter, which made considerable noise in its descent. The Marquis and Marchioness and Lady CIIARLOTTE CHOLUONDILEY. and Lord ROBIRT Sty. moult, were in the PktINCE RIC:ENT% pew•. The frag ments fell into an empty pew, and did no injury.— Several ladies were so alai turd, that they were obliged to withdraw from the Chapel, but neither of those named. The service was suspended about 5 minutes. Fines—Friday se'nnight a barn occupied by Mr. Wood, of Stoke, Herefordshire, was consumed, with a large quanta) , of grain therein ; the flames having cemmunicated to the dwelling house, that likewise fell a prey to the devouring element ; but providentially a woman and child, who were the only inmates at the time, were saved, together with nearly. all the house hold furniture. There is strong reason to suppose the premises were fired by some wicked incendiary. The loss is calculated at nearly atel2oo. Last night, about a quarter before twelve, a fire suddenly burst out on the premises of Mr. BAW- L/OMM a carver and gilder, in High-Holborn.. The flames burnt with such tory, that in a short time the home was entirely consumed; but the timely and strenuous exertions of the firemen prevented the mis chief from spreading to the adjoining houses. The neighbours, most of whom were in bed, were cured ;oily alarmed; but no farther damage accrued. The cause of the fire is sot known. No lives were lost. Last night, a little before` twelve o'clock, a fire broke out at a green-grocer's, in Milbank, Westmin• stet-, which entirely consumed she same, with nearly the whole of the adjoining house. Saturday se'nnight about - ten o'clock as Mr. Monk, butcher, of Thorn, was returning from Taunton mar ker, he was attacked between Blackbrook and hiS home by two fellows in salters' &eases, who pulled him off his horse, and after cruelly besting. him with Wudgeons robbed him of between 45 and £6, with which they ran tiff. _Thursday afternoon, about five o'clock, as a wag gon, belonging to/deans. Clark and Son, was return. ing from Waltham Mill to Farebani, the horses ran away at the top of Crocker-hill. The driver, in en deavouring so stop the team; after being dragged a short distance fell ruder the wheels, an d was killed the spot. Thursday even 4,, about ball-past seven o'clock, at one of the poranys of the Star Inn, Southampton, was returniog from Winchester with a pair of horses, he was stopped near the Hut, and robbed of 41. 13s. by two men with sticks, dressed as sailors. The third adjourned Imp( st, on the supposed mur der of Mr. Lunn,' of Da wley, &lop, met on Tues day. After an investigation of eleven hours, the Jury came to the decision, that, upon mature and minute investigation, net evidence has been adduced that would justify them in returning a verdict of Murder, but that, from the diseased state of the body on dis section, they find themselves necessarily called upon to return a verdict of—Died by the Visitation of Goo- Bow-ezazirr.—Jehe Oarthur was committed for trial, charged with picking the pocket' of Lfentenatit Cuppage, . yesterday, iq the Strand, of his silk ban kerchief.

Mei Aunt, aged 24, was indicted for steeling 891 b. of tallow, the property of Francis Webb, of Mere. It was stated that Webb had recently received a great deal of tallow, from which the quantity mentioned in the indictment had been taken. It being declared that the prisoner had no Coun sel, the Judge very cheerfully became his advocate : Judge Aa acr, for the prisoner—How do you know, Webb, that you lost jut! Bulbs. of tallow 1-1 am sure et it, my Lord. I want to be sure of it too; do you keep au account of what you receive, or what yuo usel—Noony Lord. WLat, no book, in which you minute down your goods?—Yes, my Lord, I keep a daybook. Well, that is what I wanted; aid did you in this book make any entry of the tallow received, or Law !rem it, for the purpote of making candles ?—No, my Lord, for it is as WA fit to make candles of. No ! not fit to male oodles of; why then, man, it was not ;allow !—Yes, it was, my Lord. Then why not fit to make caudks ?—Bccause, my Lord, it was wit run into tallow. Nut run into tallow!—No, my Lord. Why then it must be fat, and not tallow.—Yes,my Lord. Ah I that's very Gentlemen of the Jury, (said the Learned Judge) you find by the prosecutot's own evidence that )ou must acquit the prisoner. This man charges the rti sutler with stealing tallow ; the prosecutor is a tallow cl:andler,. and yet, Gentlemen. you heard, float this tallow-chandler's mouth, that he does not know the difference between tallow and fat /—Acquitted. LANCASTER ASSIZES. At these Assizes done Lord, aged 37 years, was found guilty, on the clearest evidence by her accom plice. tor uttering torgell notes at Newchurch. She is a widow ; her husband, it was ascertained, died worth £7OOO, thcugh originally a weaver, which UM he obtained by his nefarious practices upon the public in the uttering of forged notes. • Anne Lcrd, aged s 8 years, and Edmc.nd Lord, aged 31, were also found guilty of having iii their posses sion, and uttering, forged notes. These trials excited considei able interest, from the magnitude of the offence, such a desperate gang of ssholeside dealers now 114ving been apprelienJed in the County. J. S. C. Madge, and IV. J. Jacisers, for stealing a horse and gig, at Liverpool, were both honourably acquitted. This trial particularly excited the curio. sity of the public, from reports having been circulated of its being merely a sailor's frolic. It appeared by the evidence of Mr. Williams, that the Prisoners had hired the gig and horse from him. They had got as far as Bolton on a land cruize, and had fallen out with some person while in liquor ; had been charged with an assault, and were actually confined for it in the New Bailey, at Manchester, the day after they set out from Liverpool, which prevented all possibi lity of returning with the gig. On being eaUed upon for their defence, Mr. Jack son left the management of it to Mr. Mudge, who simply begged his Lordship would allow their Counsel to read the journal he bad drawn up of their cruize, since they set sal from Liverpool and cast anchor in Lancaster Castle. On Baron WOOD observing, if he had any thing to say, it must be done by himself, he instaatly.rephed: " My Lion!, and Gentlemen of the Tory—Though I can orly yet be called a young man, I have brut an Officer In hie Majesty's Navy twenty-four-years, and have ever lived in good repute, and met whit every retpect and kindness from my brother officers ; even since my arrival at this Castle, I have received several very kind letters from my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, as well as the Commander of the last ship I was in, offering me the first vacancy ass occurs; but to suppose for a moment that there was any Intention to steal or sell the horse or gig, I declare I would sooner by half have bought him a horse than have been guilty of such meanness; and as far riding, my Lord, I know as much .boat that as your Lordship would know how to command or manage a 74 gun-ship, nor do I suppose I could sit upon a horse." The JUDGE addressed the Jury in a few words, and they without hesitation acquitted the prisoners. After which the Learnell Judge begged they would take cite and avoid such occurrences for the future. Mudge replied, like an honest and true son of Neptune—" 'Crust me for that, your Lordship, you shall never h:tir tell of my again undertaking such another land-tad"—at which the whole Court burst into expressions of applause. • COAL MARKET, Arkin.. 7.

It is an historical fact not generally known, that until the 14th century, the fishermen of the river Thames presented every 10th salmon they caught in it to the Clergy of Westminster Abbey. Salmon aro now but seldom caught in the Thames ; but when taken, they fetch a high price, from their superiority Over all others in the delicacy/of their flavour. The removal of the men of war •in ordinary from off Woolwich has been attended with great advantage to she navigation of the Thames, not cnly in permit ting the merchant vessels to pass with greater ticili:y, but also in clearing the bed of the river. The mooring chains to which the ships were fastened have been wholly removed, thereby preventing the accumtea tion of sand, &c. brought by the ebbing and flowing of the tide. The improvement in the navigation it., Weaver, not the only advantage derived, for several thousand pounds are saved, which would have bet t paid for carrying away the silt so deposited. A Letter from Stutgard, dated March 20, says: 64 The history of the foretelling of the late Kitty.': death by a Sesinutubafirt, is now published at Li length, with all the details and names of witnesses." CARRICKFERGUS, IRELAND, MARCH st UNLAWFUL MANIUAGIthro M. V Arcary was in dieted for privately marrying Arthur Connor, of Bal linderry, a Protestant, to Ann bl'Mullan, a Roman Catholic, without the consent of the said Arthur Connor's parents or guardians, he being at the time a minor. Isaac Bell.—Was present when Arthur Connor and Ann M'Mullan were married in his hnuse by Priest M'Cary ; the Priest asked Connor's age, who represented himself as nineteen 6 he also asked if the parties believed in the Catholic Faith ' and then mar ried them. Thomas Connor, the father of the young man, said, that his son was not yet eighteen; that he wa• brought up as a Protestant ; that he and all his fa-, mily are Proteitants, and witness's brother is a Cler gyman of the Church of England. Ann M'Mullan had lived as servant to him—he believes she is a Roman Catholic. Mr. Baron MCLELLAN!) explained the law to the Jury ; that in former years the offence was reckoned a capital felonry, but a subsequent Act, ameliorating the penal laws, by subjecting the effender to a pe nalty of JCsiij, must, of course, be understood to have repealed die Act which subjected to a capital punishment. The Jury, in a few minutes, brought in a verdict of Guilty ; and the Learned Judge immediately seq. tecced Priest M'Cary to pay a fine of £5OO, and to be imprisoned tall it is paid; observing, that he con sidered he did a service to the community to put such a person as the prisoner out of the power of doing further mischief; for there could scarcely be a greater nuisance, or more detistable characters, than ssch bridle kuars, by whose means the most serious injury was sometimes done to respectable families, by inveigling the young and unwary into improper connexions, and robbing parents of their children, alter all their anxieties, at the very time, perhaps, when they expected dram to be established in the world in credit and respectability. J. M. V.
