In mammal of the perform once at entry-I.lle, on Saturd ty night, we noticed that Mrs. Jor,fan was encored in her beautiful ballad the Deal of (.10 Night mg it thC second time with ard.tienal benuty and effeit. The hrilliant audience that then filled the blouse were little aware that the indivi dual who imputed such rapture and delight was, at that moment, in agony. Towards the close of.the song, she was affetted by a severe pain in her shout. del s, which struck into her chest ; and nothing hat her great spirits and firmness mill have enabled her to finish the part. Early on Sunday morning, after a little coughing, a considerable quantity of clear blond came up from her chest, and it was evi dent that she had broken a blood-vessel. Dr. Blanc immediately attended, and, by his order, 12 ounces of blood were taken from her arm by the lancet. and eight by cupping. This has relieved the pain in lier chest; but reduced her very low; and she is prohibited trom taking A iy nounshment but cold water. After the play, on Satarday night, Mrs. Jordan was !innoanced for Monday, in the cha radler of Peggy is Thr Corotry Uirl; but her sudden illness has obliged the Managers to change it. What ever disappointment the Public may feel, we are confident it will be absorbed in their regard for the individual, and regret for the cause. A little time, however, we trust, will restore this fascinating adtress to health and spirits. To the numerous inquiries after Mrs. JORDAN'S health, last night, the answer was, that she was car.- sideralsly better. PLDESTRIAN FEAT. CAPTAIN SAILCLAY AND WOOD. Our accounts from Newmarket, received yes terday, st ite, that the ground on which the long. expelled contest between these two swift-footed heroes is to be decide ', was finally fined and measured for some days. It is an exalt mile upon the lett side of the first mile oi tne tuinpike road trout Newmarket. It is a fine firm piece or ground, well c .lculAted fur a fair trial. It was b tiled on Sunday, tsar the paints should start this morning at eight, and t,o, at nine o'clock, as report stated. Wood arrived on Sunday at Newmarket, from Cambridge. Capt. Barclay had arrived previously. They both take string exer cise. Their food is pal boiled mutton, and half broiled beef steaks, of wh•ah they eat heartily. They are both well. and each confident of success. Capt. Barclay is trained by Ward, Gully, and Crib. They are very attentive to their pupil. and speak in high terms of his performance. Wood is trained Ly Gregson, the rioted Lancashire man, who, according to report, is to fight Gully on Wednesday ; but the scene of action was not known yesterday. The odds on Sunday morning were 6 to I upon Captain Barclay. In the course of the day they rose to 2to I. and 3to 2. This pedestrian feet, the expelled pugilistic perlornance, ant the races, have attracted more company to &wine' ket than have ever been seen there at an Ottober bleetiit g. There is scarcely a bed, or place fur a horse, to be had in the neigh bourhood, and provisions, are, or course, dear in proportion. Immense sums are depending upon this match, and the parties interested who remain in town are all anxiety, ; accounts of the progress of the pedestrians will be reported by a series of expresses sent off to London until the final determi nation of the contest. Monday. Eight o'Clonk, a. Nt. The ground this morning was all life and bustle, and wore a most variogated appeara.tce. it was covered with tents and booths, filled at an early hour with company from London, Cambridge, Newmarket. and all the surrounding country for many miles. No fair was ever more crowded. The number of carriages was very great. consisting of barouches, phaetons, sociables, buggies, caravans, •c. Capt. Barclay, and his competitor, Wood, had each a marquee, with a snpha in it, on which to rest them...lees when they should thick proper. These marquees were pitched close to the ground on which they performed. Exaftly at eight o'clock these two candidates for pedestrian fame appeared at their respeehre goals, and commenced their contest. They were dressed alike in white flannel jackets and drawers, open at the knees; light sandarshoes, with flannel socks, but no stockings. and a small handkerchief tied loose round the um's. Two time pieces, regulated by Mr. Bramble. watchmaker, Oxford-road, were sent down to Newmarket, last week, for the occasion. The persons appointed to hold them being placed at their stations, and all the preliminary business being settled, the swift footed heroes started exeifily at eight o'clock ; and at akrarter to nine o'clock, when our account was sent off; Wood had performed flur miles, and Capt. Barclay three miles. The odds on the ground, at that time. were 23 to 10, and five to three upon Capt. Barclay. Among the company present were the Earl of Barrymore; Lords Fo/ey, G. Cavendish, Beauclerc, &c. ; Mr. Mellish, and, in short, all the sporting Noinlity and Gentry. The match, as we stated 14 a focrue: Paper, is to walk for 24 hours, and the man who perfot ms the greatest number of miles in that time to b 3 the winner, Wood allowing his competitor SO miles ; so that, even in the event of Captain Barclay's success, be will only prove himself a very infetior man to Wood, unless the latter should greatly disappoint the general expect ation. Tae bets i.i London last night were 7to 4, and $ to 2 in favour of Captain .larclay. The odds were aln. held by Wood's friend., that he would perform 100 miles in the first 16 hours. Gaily as l Grepoi are expeSed to fight to-mor row, near Newmarket r the odds were, last night, 7 to 4 in favour of Geezva. The Spotting World ate equally as much on the tiptoe of expeaation for the event of the match be tween S:► ®arid and NOpoateses, over the Beacon course, (tic lot mer giving his opponent seven pounds), as between Captain BA MC L• Y and Wean. Within these few days a club, at the west end of the town, which is confined to sixteen members, have pus ciia,ed the amount of six Lottery Tickets, all in Sixteemh Shares of different Numbers. Thus they possess ninety-six Chances in the New Plan that commences Drawing Next Tuesday. Among its numerous Capital PIIZCS, they, doubtless, aim at the 40,001 Pounder ; which, should either of their ninny Chances turn up, each member of this clO will possess ao less a sum than 2,5001. eIP ' • d In mam r indispo sit i on. d i )da o f ‘,;11,1-egali:Ut r;uS STG.' conscquen:e of the i ragely of George t, fur the C of the 0 twa here hits. rul l f)l L ey Girl L Il{ignsting as the chtrsßer may '~~, even vice, in so fur a representative , becomes attrathve , an•! {he rorttaytac- rlunsn ed the ts ra t teelin d g.

I agree so pettedly with a letter in The Brighton liereed, published this spurning, that I send 7.4 the fallowing extrad ; •• On Friday evening the play of The &raver was announced; The Weaver by Melvin; Al though I conceive it a charader totally out of his hoe of ading e yet he played the pair with great feeling, and displayed much judgment. Mrs. Nailer was filled by a Mrs. Mudie, whose excellence I had often heard paged off in many of the London Papers, I was theretore inclined to pay more atten tion to this Lady's aging ; die appears to possess g-eat judgment, with a very powerful voice, and pays much attention to what is called the business of the stage ; in some of her lower tones she reminds us a good deal of Mrs. Siddons ; for although I Min an enemy to Impostors in the hum of ac‘turs and *dresses, yet, when I sea reel merit, I think it deserves public notice, as such I speak of this Lady; her figure is elegant and conunanding. and she certainly appears what the author intended; in her scene where she discovers herself to the Coontess. she displayed great feeling and energy in her acting. particularly in her distracted turn where she says:— " I called for iny husband in sa.n-1 fur Ow prat tle of my children—hut in vain " Her manner of speaking these words, with her dis traded look, absolutely elinffrified the audience, and in her last scene, where the interest of the play de pended on her and %he Stranger. they performed is such a stile as not to leave a dry eye in the house at the dropping of the curtain : this is the best proof of genuine rifling." Quick is as great as you ever saw him. Melvin as .idarpfet, and Mrs. bindle as Mi randa. in the lively comedy of 7ba Bury Body, at traded a crowded audience last night. Melvin it deservedly a great favourite; his Meryl*: was chaste, lively, and entertaining, and Mrs. Mu die's Miranda was lively and interesting; the whole went off with great eclat. Miss Davies sang Braham's sweet song, Siefer, Suter. beware of &we with great sweetness. The Farce was Bar. ashy &dile, in which Quick, as Borooho, and Mrs. Medic, as the Cori ee convulse 4 the House with laughter. Quick's B e nefit to-night will be a bumper; and, on Monday.
