77IEATI?ES. HAymARKET.—The laughable Comedy of Wild 0 It: was excellently performed last evening at this atre. Mrs. Glans, as Jane, with her usaal naitelle and effect, and MATHEWS, TERRY, JONES, TOKELY, Evae, and RAYNER, were all loudly and deservedly applauded. The latter gentleman will, we doubt not, . prove a great acquisition to the London boards. He appears to act entirely trom his own conception, and his dialect is correct, without being charged with that coarse hi.. tness too frequently found in those who personate countrymen. LaoEur.t.—The Opera of The Doenna was last night • repeated at this Theatre. Mr. LEONARD appeared, Ur the second time in the character of Carlos. This Gentleman'. voice is not powerful, but it is extremely suelodions. Having got rid of a portion of the ti. ruidity attendant on a first appearance, he last night gave his songs with iv/Inch more effect than on Satur day, and promises, as he. becomes more known, to im prove in the estimation of the public. In the course of the Opera lie introduced a sweetly plaintive ballad, in which he was much and deservedly applauded. Mr. GIBBON played Don Ferdinand, and gave his songs with considerable effect. The house was crowded in . every part. Iset.etiow, Ceettenomr, and Honeearree (piano forte player), commenced their professional Tour last night, at the Boston Theatre, with a new Entertain. =eat, in three Parts, called Mirtk and Afineirelsy; or, Two Jo One agaiatt Care: consisting of Recitations and bong s. . The Edinburgh Theatre will open on Monday, with. Mr. Yount; in the character of Harald. Miss STYPHENS is also engaged. • VatArraLe.—These Gardens continue to be crowd ed, and the fineness of the weather allows, them to be seen in their full effect. The gallant Lord Hier., Lord BAIteARD anti Lady, Earl of Fin, Lady M. FAULK r, Lend Beewlee, Lord SOMALILAND, and the French and Portugeese Ambassadors, were among the fashionable: of Wednesday evening. WRSTHINSTEIt NATIONAL FRU SCHOOL..-.The amend marked out for this School 'house, whioli is designed for the ipstruction of 1000 children-600 boys and 4.00 girls—is close to the Sessions House, in front of Westminster Abbey. Yesterday was the day appointed for the ceremony of laying • the first stone, which was done by the Duke of YORK, with, the usual -ceremony. There were benches and scaffolding erected in the rear of the Sessioni House, for the ac commodation of Ladies,orhich were crowded with beauty and fashion. Three hundred children, with white_ wands, attended the ceremony, and were re pled afterwards in the Sessions House, each with a bun and a cup of ale. The bell; of St. Margaret's church rang a merry peal ; and the fineness of the day rendered the whole a very interesting sight.

His Royal Highness very particularly adverted to them as the nurseries of our fleets and a•mies-aas the abode ef men not more distinguished for their un shaken bravery in the hour of battle, than for their constant habi s of order, subordination, and loyalty. Thf Noble Duke concluded a most able speech by a n -,ppral to tl at benevolence which he felt proud to sty he never solicited in vain, in behalf sif the funds of the Socsety ; and the sub equent Reports of the .

An Address for the occa sion was then recited, and received with unanimous approbation. Several lists of additional subscriptions were announced by the Secretary ; and at a late hour his Royal Hi : lllness left the party, highly gratified with his condescension, affability, and attention. biennia.—Sunday night se'nnight, about test o'clock, Mrs. Noyce, an aged woman who resides at Pawky. in the New Forest, Hampshire, was barbs. toady murdered near her own residence. The de cassia kept a chandler's atop ; she was a widow, and had one son, about 20 years of age, who, being from home, :Le kft bar house to go in search of him ; not returning home at a late hour some of her neighbours went out in pursuit of her, and at two o'clock in the • morning 5-he was found in apparently a lifeless state, in a herd adjoining a lane, where they knew she would pass, with her head shockingly bruised; she remain ed insensible for several da)s, and when she came to herself, she stated the attack to have been made by a Man in the lane, who came behind her and gave her some violent blows with a stick or bludgeon at the back of her bead, and afterwards dragged her into the field ; tan she did not see the man and of course could not describe him : she has since died of the wounds, and the Coroner's Jury having sat on the body, brought in a verdict of wilful murder against Jur own sen, who on Monday was conveyed to Win chester gaol, by Vickery, the Bow street officer, It appeared before iheJury, that the son courted a young woman, and was about to marry her, whom the mo ther bad a very great objection to ; but he persisted in paying his addresses to her. On the night when the horrible deed was committed he was proved to have been visiting the young woman, and he was seen by a servant girl coming out of the field where his mother was ' isle minutes het house.

'OXINI. • The battle between Burn and Psliner, the Bristol butcher, took place yesterday at Comte Wood, near Kingston, in the presence of h‘dreds of spectators, among whom were several foreign•rs . of distinction. In the ring, which was composed of the usual motley groupe, betting was to lon Burn. Seconds, Crib (the champion), and J. Clark, for Burn; and Rich mond and Harry Hernia, for Pahner.—S to 1 Burn draw first blood. Round 1. Burn made play by a favouilte left-handed bit, which - was well stopped, and occasioned much surprise from a supposed novice. Palmer returned by a smart hit on his adver sary's eye, which produced first blood. A rally took place In which the supposed novice had, if not the best of fighting, the most luck, in planting blows. Burn was hit in the rally on the left vide of the throat, and Palmer was thrown. 2. Encouraged by success in the first round, Palmer went in, but lee got a fine le t-handed facer, which no doubt convinced him courage was misapplied. Another rally followed, and some desperate fighting took place; but Burn's science gave him a dechive advantage. He out-fought his adversary left and right, and in a close threw him easily-5 to 2on Bura. S. A nicht determined rallying round commenced by Burn, who skewed best condition, and again out-fought his adversary, who went down weak with a slight bit. 4. Burn planted a good left-banded hit, giving effect to it by throwing in the weight of the body. A rally followed, in which Palmer di-played much courage under every dhadvantage from being opposed :o fine fighting. At the close Palmer was thrown 5. Palmer received several left-banded hits, or jobs rath.•r, which I e could not return, and be fought under every dis.d vantage iti gentag in. He received a tremendous blow on the ear, with which he went down, and to the otdinary sp,ctator the battle seemed se'l'l t-d-4 and 5 to 1 on Burn. 6. Palmer bail , uffereit much from the last round, and he was eviden•ly very weak. Burn planted his left-handed hit, and p aced his right wills much violence on the head. l'abrier was knocked down again—Odds 4 and 5 to I on Burn. 7. Burn wa , succes-ful in dila round, and he out fought k•s adversary, and again got kim down, after receiving a smart blow in a *lion rally 8. Courage coutd not be better exemplified than in the manful manner in which Palmer met his man He was hit away, but be bored on, and in a trial of it: ength both fell, atter exchanging some hits. 9. Palmer seemed to have got second wind, to use a sporting phrase, and had the advantage of hi tang in this round for the se cond time. Boni seemed to tall off, and he went down in a man lier not very promising. Bet ing variable, but nearly even— Palmer for choice. 10. In a rally commenced by Palmer, he had the best of It, although bleeding and much disfi o urad. After some smart fight. ing Burn threw his adversary. i I. Burn fea in making play from weakness, and it would be Superfluous to enter further into detail. The heart of the man seemed broken by adversity, and although he fought four other rounds with a reciprocity of advantage, train superior fight in •-• he had no chance of winning against real game any—Lc..., man. The battle lasted 19 minutes. A second battle was fought between a Jew and a Christian, but of a bleaus nature, although it lasted until the spectators were tired of it. The Jew was beat as folks saids The next treat was a Bull-bait, and all the fanciers in London exhibited their best buffers to torment the bull, for a silver collar. Eleven dogs were in the run, and the owner of that which lasted longest in the Tawas the winner of the prize. Caleb Baldwin ba alfancy bitch, the favourite, but aftet one dog hat en killed, she got her left leg broke, and was drawn. The boll was placid, and Mr. Giles, of Bil lingsgate, had the enviable distinction of winning the prize. Gibbons officiated as master of the ceremonies, and first got the bull into play by turning-to a fine bred dog. An adventurer, who was on the look-out for a lamer, produced a badger, and the pastime of the day ended with drawing it from its den by subscription. PF.Drinetamem.—Yesterday William Le Mayne, a weaver, in Church street, Bethnal Green, undertook,' for a wager of aes, to go on 19ot from Shoreditch Church to Theobalds, Hens, and back again, in two hours and three quarters, the distanc e being twenty- four miles. He started at six o'clock, when odds were against him four to three ; stopped to bait at Tottenham a few minutes, and reached Theobalds' at 14 minutes after seven ; when, after refreshing about ten minutes, he started on his.return, stopped a short time at Edmonton, and arrived at the starting post about 39 minutes past eight o'clock, completing his task six minutes within the time. About o'clock, on the evening of the 14th instant, while two Gentlemen and a Lady were walking near Glasgow, on the Edinburgh road, within a few yards of Whitevale, they were attacked by tour ruf fians, dressed like sailors, who, without asking a question, knocked one of the Gentlemen down, and, having presented a loaded pistol to the breast of the other, they proceeded to rifle the pockets of his cont. paniob. He made a bold resistance, but one of the ruffians stabbed him with a bayonet in ten different parts of his body ; one of which was aimed at his heart. While this ruffian was inflicting these wounds, another held his throat, and a third robbed him of a gold watch, six pound notes, 225. 6d. in silver, and other articles. The shrieks of the Lady had attrac ted the notice of a family in Whitevale, who received the party. We are happy to learn that the wounded Gentleman is in a fair way of recovery. 131 tt 1 HS.
