On Tuesday night Miss O'NEILL repeated her pert'ormunce of Lady Tea.7le with increased effect. At her first appearance in this arduous character on the preceding Saturday, it is acknowledged, that she felt a more considerable degree of alarm, than even when she first appeared on the London Boards. 'Through the various range of her tragic characters, her power gradually un tblded themselves, and she soon shone as the High Priestess in the temple of Nlclpomene. l laving attained li to this pre-eminent station, she felt, perhaps, some groundless alarm thr her reception in the gayer assembly of Thalia ; although conscious of the innate force of her genius, she could not utterly subdue her feors during the whole of the perthrmank e of the difficult part which she had chosen; but on Tuesday evening, enccuroged by the applause which she had received (MI the preceding Saturday, she laid aside her apprehensions, and became the Lady Teazle of the author's own imagination ; her exertions were universally extolled, and called firth from a crowded and admiring audience the warmest plaudits. We solicit the attention of the managers of this Thea tre to the disguqing exhibition of Madame Sidra ; we call it disgusting, as it is revolting to common decency. We give her our praise us an Equilibrist, but there is a virtue we prefer to corporeal flexibility, and that in filtude modesty. The whirligigs of the Opera house even consider it decent to Mile from the pmflanc eye of the COntioisseur, those partsof the human frame, whi( h the gracciidness of their attitudes would reveal, but Madame S tCI4I, whilst she is walking over the heads of the up staring. pit, thinks it not requisite to assume the male at tire (Stile drawers. This is an outrage against all deli cacy, and we notice it, that the blush, which we often see mantling on the cheek of virtue, inky not be again excited. ?NG'S THEATRE. La Clemoda de Tilo WRS pertbrmed at this Theatre on Tuesday evening, in which Madame Fonon made her first appearance since her late indisposition. Her per fbrmance was received with that approbation which her talents so justly merit, and in several of her sonv, she was rapturously encored. 8RA14.151 Was in fine voice, and acquitted himself with his usual excellence. The flivourite Divertisement of Petits Itrareoniers was repeated by particular desire, which, with Leon's New Ballet of Le Partie de (*haw d'llenri Uuartre ex cited the warmest applause, from one of the most fashion able houses which we have witnessed this season. In justice we must add, that the various departments of this Theatre appear to be most respectably tilled, and reflect no small degree of credit on the Proprietor and Managers. INAL REGISTER. CITY BUSINESS. On Friday a 01111111011 COlllieli was held at Guildhall for the purpose of petitioning Parliament against the Property Tax, the Standing Army, and reeo 11111 l eliding Economy in every Branch of the Expenditure. Mr. Waitlituan opened the proceedings, and. after a very himinons speech. moved a string of Resolutions congratulating the C try ou the Abolition of the Income To ; expressi% e of their abhorrence of the enormous Peithe Establishment, and rec , immei.ding Retrenchment. Mr. Ilitinstead seconded the Resolution. After sortie discussion the debate was adjourned to vestcr day,tsiern the Court again assembled. The Resolutions having been read, Mr. Wadhman said, he would not repeat the arguments which he had urged on the preceding day in favour of their adoption, but simply mine that thi• should be agreed to. Mr. Dixon said, there was an entire new set of Resaintiots to be proposed. Mr. Davis said, as there were some verbal amendments to which the Hon. IMis%er had no objection, he Dusted be would propose them himself. Mr. Waithman indifferent as to what form the resolu tions assumed, he could not hut object however to the personal obstructions which had heen theowu in his way by gentlemen on the other side; they were unheatable. Mr. DiNon—" Von st bear them." Here something offensive was said in an tinder brcath,whicli induced both gentlemen to rush toward each other, c‘idently with intent to come to close cont.( at. Several members of the Court interfered, however ; strangers were ordered to withdraw, and during their absence the mat ter was adjn.ted. On strangers being re-admitted, Mi. Blown objected to the language of the resolntions us disrespectful and discreditable to that Cuort. He then moved au amendment, leaving out all the strung points. some discussion took place on Ili• amendment, in the course of which, however, no new arAtintent was adduced. In the end, Mr. ‘t aithman computed to some• trilling verbal altera tions in his resolutions, acid they were agreed to by a v ery jority of the members pi t sent. Petitions were then prop..sed and agreed to, founded on these I esoluttuns, af;.er which tit Court :••11.••••- The last accounts received of the Princess of Wales, state that her Royal Highness had no intention of re taming to England, having determined to visit, early ia the Spring, all the Greek Isles in the Archipelago. On Monday La 1y Wilson had the honour of being admitted w a private aialicnee of th Prince Regent.

IN my last paper, I promised to communicate a sue. eessital method of , curing rheumatism, which might be adapted without danger, if' any patient can persevere in the voluntary infliction of pain necessary in the early stages of the proeeedure. The late heavy rains and con sequent diffusion of moisture being unfavourable to the spontaneous cessation of the complaint, some, among my numerous readers, may perhaps he inclined to put the plan into execution. The recital ia as follows: " I usu ally proceed to my sweating walks in the following man ner :—Next to my skin I wear stockings, drawers, and a shirt, all of fleecy hosiery : over these put one, two, or three pair of flannel drawers ; one, two, or three flannel waistcoats ; and nsund my hips and loins, I gird six yards of thick flannel. making, besides the drawers and waist coats, eight thicknesses of flannel on the chief seat of pain, and the origin of the sciatic nerve. Over all this I wear warm pantaloons and a great coat. When I have walked mu: or two miles. more or less, according to the heat of the day, lam generally in a profuse perspiration. I re. tnnt home, take off my wet clothes, have a couple of cliangos of well aired flannel, am: then lie down upon a bed not warmed. I use no mewls to excite fitrther per spiration after the innscular action is over ; but, on the contrary, rather incline to check it us speedily as I can, taking particular care, however, to avoid catching cold. I do not perceive, that the quantity I perspire, has uny influence on the efficacy of the remedy. I imagine that a violent action produced in the general system is the chief' cause of its salutary cflect. In consequence of this opinion, I celiac the exercise the moment that a very in mased action is well established. This is fidly pr duo with the stlxive quantity of clothing, in moderately warm '"Weather, by walking front one to two miles. For patients who are very much disabled, the quantity of clothing might be increased, end the distance diminished. When the excitement is well established, I find my rids:• i ise to between 90 and 100, and it is full and strong. When I • began to experience relief from this mode of treatment, I was eager to prosecute the cure, and took my walks every second day. Being now relieved, I resume them only every fourth, fifth, or sixth day, as most convenient. I do not find myself under the necessity of any particular I precaution, as to avoiding cold the day I exercise ; and in this respect, sweating by muscular action has an immense advantage over warm baths, vapour, t r heated air ; par ticularly in a climate as dump as that of an island situated lin the north seas must be. Physiology will easily point out many other advantages, in exciting perspiration by a stimulus which invigorates, rather than by the enervatieg methods of heated air or water. Since beginning this proctais, I do not find that I am grown thin ; and in my general health, lam infinitely better. I feel myself more strong and active, and less sensible of cold. My diet has been much as usual, but my appetite rather increased. I have occasionally taken a little bark to maintain the ge neral tone of the system ; and, on returning home, atter each walk, I have found that a few drops of hartshorn in water were refreshing, and prevented thirst during the rest of the day." In the French armies, during the Government of But. naparte, it was strictly enjoined, and the rule arrears to have been rigidly enforced, that no person slould be ex cused the service on account of any rheumat c affection, however severe. An opinion seems to have been enter tained by that General, that nothing is more easily coun terfeited- than rheumatism, it being impossible to discover, by external examination, the degree of pain a person &els. Whilst he thus prevented the attempted evasion of duty, he justified the proceeding, by stating, that, ad mitting the existence of pain to be real, the motions of the affected limbs, thus performed by three, wetsz often times effectual in alleviating, or removing the complaint. Certain it is, that after the active state of the disease has subsided, the occasional motion of the stiftiuctl limbo will expedite the recovery of their perfect use ; but few per sons have resolution enough to encounter the pain gmic rally attending such an effort. This pain, however, is said to be much alleviated, and the cure greatly hastened, by enveloping the affected limb in an extensive covering of flannel, by way of bandage or roller. A physician of much experience, (Dr. BALFOUR, of Edinburgh,) pro fesses to have made several cures by this means ; limbs which were bairne stiff and motionless, have, by being bound up with a flannel roller, become easy and suscep tible of motion, soon slier the applitation of the bandage, w:.kh, at first, is to be adjusted according to the feelings of the patient, and to be tightened as the cure advances. In the early ages of medicine, before it had yet assumed the final' of a distinct scitnce, notices of cures obtained 1 y individuals, and a description of the• molted employed, were hung up in the temples of the Gods, for the infor mation of future sufferers. The mass of facts thus re corded, afforded ample materials for investigation by the scientific enquirer, and laid a broad foundation fx the Lie. auction of general principles. Even in the present ad vanced state of medical science, a similar plan might have its advantages. Unusual accidental occurrences or insu lated facts, communicated to - the Mosart R. might bscome the source of much usefid iafsrmation to the public ; not.
