The Qt:een continuing' in a very weak and low state, the Prince Itegt:nt did nut leave Kew till about half past 12, tin Loudon. Yesterday morning early, the Physicians sent off an express, with * full statement of the situation of the Queen. The Bulletin is as follows: •• Kcw Palace. Nov. 8..

His It Tal Highness the Prince Regent went - to Kew is the aftvranon, and remained during the whole of the eve ting. The Mosquito sloop of war, Captain Brine, arrived at Portsniouth in the afternoon of Saturday, with dis patches'fiom St. Helena, which island she left so lately as the '!9th of September. All communication with this vessel having been interdicted for twenty-four hours, the only thing stated positively by the Ports mouth Editor with regard to the despatches which she brought, is tint they were of very great importance." Captain Brine, who left Portin:oath in a chaise and tour for London, at half-past 3 o'clock on Saturday, arrived in town at an early hour yesterday morning.— Earl Bathura king at his seat near Putney, Captain Brine proceeded thither; and soon after a meetiut , was held, at which Lords Liverpool, Sidi:loath and :1171%411e were present. The Council lasted four hours. Various rumours were afloat in consequence. The Times says—We have heard, but we should be sorry to pledge ourselves for the fact. that Mr. O'Meara, who lately officiated as medical attendant on Buono parte, has been removed from his Britannic Mijesty's service. The' eircttmstauces from which this aileged removal has arisen are described to us to be ofli nature which will not admit or their being concealed. It is said that the Doctor has charged the Governor with a proposal to him to poison the prisoner. A considerable degree. of uneasiness was excited during the last wee':, in consequence of certain indica tions of u rebellious and reliactory spirit among the boys at Eton College. For several 'days they kept the town in a state of uproar, and in their own immediate quartets did some serious mischief; as well as offered time grossest indignities to Dr. Keate, the head of the college. At first it was apprehended that all subordi nation was at end, and that it would be impossible for the business of the institution to proceed : by the firm and decisive conduct of Dr. Keate, however, aided by the other masters, and by making a proper example of some of the ringleaders, peace was restored, and on Saturday the whole of the school had returned to a proper sense of . their duty. co VENT GARDEN THEATRE. The tragedy of Othello was performed on Saturday , evening at Lids theatre, when an actor, whose name is Yates made his first uppearance in the character of Ito. This gentleman comes from Edinburgh, where be enjoyed, we believe, a high reputation in his pro fession ; and our neighbours are allowed in matters of taste to be no meat: judges ; we-therefore felt our ex pectation greatly raised by the announcement of this new performer. It would have been thrtunate, perhaps, if we had expect( d less. Mr, Yates does not appear to us to soar above that class who are termed es.iii/ actors. ut least his lap), as character, exhibited very few of those masterly touches and indications of superi9r genius which ‘N e expect from the man who appears as the re presentative. of that consummate hypocrite and villain. Mr. Yates drew him rather as a common place, vulgar schemer of mischief; and delivered the part in the colloquial familiari:y of comedy. lie appeered to have uo ecnsciousness of the Successful progress of his designs, end sufkrcd the aloft important scenes to languish far want of energy. The great merit of Mr. Yates is his. delivery, which is very clear and distinct. His action is easy- and unembarrassed, without any appearance' of study. His person is not very striking or eulculated to convey the idea of dignity ; in statue be is rather below the middle size ; his leatures are strongly toadied, but do not seem capable at' quick mid powerful eNyresioo. On the whole, Air. Ya'es is 'et better lagu thou many who have lately piers sof feted to fill the character, but he is very far from a true conception of the /ago of Shakespecre. He was . receive: with much favour by the audience. Miss O'Neill's Devdemuna is a charm pertimuunee, but is perhaps (11.-tivient, in some scenes, in the requisite degree of softness and submission. Young's 011iella just. ly ranks us a line manly piece of acting. The Caxsiu of C. hemble is, we think, ,his master-pi ece : th e gmlual approaches of inehrity were so inimitably ex pressed, that the scene becatue one of the tine 4 igen:lnca t in the tragedy, and was very loudly applauded Mrs. ates who, we ;nay here mention, is not the wife nor any way related to Mr. Yates) played Entlia with pi:oricty cud feeling.
