DIVOT-LAMS TREATILL—A new Tragedy, me. titled Szeitorterid, was produced at this Theatre last night. It Is said to be from the pen of Miss JAWI PoeTla. We are sorry to add that the Play failed; for Mies POltTal Is a lady mach esteemed in private lift, and she certainly has shown considerable talent In her former productions. We ere little ibis to say how far the derision of the audience was jest or Dot ; for at an early period a strong contest took place, end those who would bare been glad to fol low the story, end to learn something of the merit, of the eomposition, were shot oat from those object, by the almost inceneet uproot which prevailed. We ' coetd barely make Get, that the business of the piece related to the foresees of *atone (Mr. Haus), the son of the deceased Bares of Rotsenberg, in the at tempt to free his country from the Austrian yoke, In that attempt he finally falls into the heads of his enemies, and stabs himself to avoid the igasidelows death which awaited him. It 'meld be (rialtos to say more where we could know se little; we comet help observing, however, that it dose appose ooloetio an Reckoner, not to permit a new play to develop itself void its merits are fairly before them. Coo. deeming unheard is not the way to improve the taste , of tbg Destro, however much that may need im provAiM. The certain fell in the midst of a via. lent contest; the Meager was called for ; end Mr. STSPIILM KistaLa appeared. lie said it was the right of the eadieoce to give the law, sod the dety of the Committee and himself to obey. lie regretted that the ace Tragedy had failed of success; es, how ever, It was the opinion of the audience that it should be withdrawn, the Management would bow to thole decision. This Address was received by great and repeated applause. Pollee 01 PA IttIAMENT.—The following edger. tisement appeared in the Wed Brion, a paper Nib. lished at Truro, in the "'Mee and independent county of Cornwall" :—" TO Gentlemen of .

The forthcoming Novel, The Metropolis, by the Author of Little Hydrogen; or, The Devil on Tiro Sticks in London, is said to contain Sketches of every person (to the member of many hundreds) of rank ur fashion. It Is full of curious Anecdotes, and is 04 production of a titled Lally (not Lsdy Canociris Lana) of high distinction. We need scarcely ■dd, that the eagerness espremed for Its peAvaL folly equals the interest sock a Worly mast necessarily incite. As for Luttle Hydrogen, even the second edition is nearly eshsested. The severity with which some of mac sapient Rulers are trnted in it, is certainly well deserved. 4tis ANECDOTE or rim LAVE FAMILY: Sir PICRISION LAMB (afterwards created a Nor of Ireland), the graodfather of the present Wmt.. mintier Candidate, after purchasing. at a eery dear tete, the great hoax in Piccadilly, and which Om present Viecoent Id MOURN'S etchanged, some Iyears ago, with the p rereot D o k e of YORK, was do. sire's of maklne what Is familiarly terms 1 a ho u s e ., warming, and for that purpose lathed a fee bent ;irons, fashionable friends, to a rrtgal Among these were several Noblemen and others' calebr4t.l for their wit and conviviality ; Lord CIIZTTERPILI.D, for instance. and Catmint •Sat.well.• After haalog in. dated with the bottle till nearly break of day, the first Lord CillrllAN (then Mr. PITT) proposed to de particular !looser to the b4apitable owner of the house, by drinking, mondial op, one e.g.() more, in swimming bumpers, to " the health of the hos. pitable host, and may he lire a great weeny yeezein his maw house."
