The Au►ora, —. from Bristol, for Lisbon, was ken with on the i7th of Septembrr, with the , of fore-top-mast, eery leaky, and had thrown t of her cargo overboard. SIIREWSBUR r. The Theatre continues to amuse the town in the most agreeable manner—not merely the town, but the country also ; far its influence is by no means confined. There was an overflow, nut very many nights since, and a great part of the company were strangers. The Comedy of •• Secrets Worth Knowing" obtained, on Friday evening; a coma dcrable share of applause. Mr. CRISP played the part of Rostrum, the auctioneer, in his usual very excellent manner. Miss STRATTON'S Mrs. Oreveile, and Mrs. WATntnaoa's Rose Sydney, were well performed, as was Mrs. CM•SIBERS'II Jane Shore." on Saturday, Miss STRATTON'S Alicia was very conspicuous, and Mrs. WATKIN• SON'S Jane Shore, for the feeling sand interest which it produced in the house, merited every encomium. Lord !innings received all the justice from Mr. Ouse that could have been bestowed on the cha racter—he gave the part havery admirable style. On Monday was played the Comedy of " The Poor Gentleman." The piece received every sop port from Mr. itnwswatt.t.'s Lieutenant Worthing ton. Mrs. Cu IMBFRS'II Lucretia Mac Tab was well performed; the scenes between her sand Durtor Oliva were most highly langhable—Mr. Cats, represented the cadre character of the Doctor in a very happy manner, and the company gave him every applause.—Treader night we ha the play of eurfeur,” and the humorous Farce of " The Merry Mourners." The Curfew appears to hate made much impression, and was most favourably received. • s:vmase-r , ..eat• ITALIAN HOUSE-RACING The method of horse-rucing in Italy is singular ; the rtorres run without riders, and, to urge them on, little halls, with sharp paints in them, are hung to their sides. winch, when the horse is employed in the nice, aet like spur--hey have also Meares of tin-foil fastened on their hinder ports, which, as the animals rash thmogh the air, nuke a loud rustling noise, and frighten them forward. I was lunch aroused with the Immo-nice* at Attecona. A gun is fired when they tirat start, that preparations may be made to receivethent at the farther end. When they have rots half way, another tun is tired, and • third when. they arrive at the goal. To ascertain, without di.pute, which wins the race, acmes the winning-post, e thread is stretched, dipped its red lead, which the victor breakidg, it /eaves a red mark on his cheat, and this mark is decisive. The first race was declared Initially as one horse Pied 'forted before the rest, and the Governor ordered another to be run the following evening. To guard the (verse, a great number of Roman sol diers, under arms, were ratified on each side of it, fro m one end to tine other. fhr morning after the first rat e, the wind blew fmur the north, and was rather cold,; I wan sitting with his Excellency the Grwernor, Signor Vidout, when messenger ar rived from the General, with hie compliments, re questing that the race might be deferred till ano ther day, RI he thought the weather too cold to pat his berms under arms. The Governor replied to him, that .‘ as the weather was not too cold kw the ladies. he thought it WR% not too much so for Remain soldiers." I hove seen on a day which only threatened rein, a guard of Romans torn out, every one of which had an umbrella under Isis arm, the drummer and fifer abate excepted. TILE PI.ACIIK. The precautions used against the piare by Chnstiana, to Turkey. are simple and effectual ; their houses, that is to say, the best houses in Frsnk street, Constantinople, are for many reasons built like little fortresses, and in general extend from the street down to the water-side ; at each of them there is a strong gate, mostly of iron, to prevent their being set tire to, sod withiu that one, towards the street, at• the distant of ten feet from it cud each other, are two more formed of spars. ♦Wen the peetilence rages violently, both the outer and saner gates ere kept constaiitly locked, and the master, or some conlideutial person, has the keys.— Whet' any one rings et the gate, the door is opened by a toed, and the person is admitted to the firet spar gate, through which he eotnmuoicates the in tention of his errand ; if he bring provisions, with in the middle gate stands a large tub of water, into which they are thrown from a little door, and are not take* out agais until the outer gate is shut ; if bread is bronght, it must be het, at which time it cannot cominunicatia infectims. Letters and other papers are conveyed ea the end of • piece of wood or cane, with a Slit in it, and are fumigates) with nitre and brimstone. By these means it is almost impossible that the plague should find entrance in to the houses, where the inhabitants keep them selves closely confined till its rage is spent. The greatest danger is at the first breaking out of the disease, before they make use of any pre cautions, for they seldom thick of shutting them selves tip until they hear of tight or nine accidents, as they are called, each day. in care of any member of a family being at tacked by the plagne, the person so seized is im mediately carried to the hospital, the rest of the family sprinkle themselves with vinegar, and are fumigated : they generally leave the house they are in, and inhabit another for forty days. The hinpitals are attended by persons who have had the plague; hut it is a mistaken idea that, under these circuiustances, they are secure from future infection. Padre Luigi, a humane friar, who has attended one of the hospitals for upwards of thirty years, mays. that every tine there is the plague in his hospital, his old sores open afresh, though with less virulence; but that a great num ber of the plague nurses die under as violent at tacks of it as if it had seised them for the first tune. This worthy Father Luigi says. that he never found any remedy so effectual as friction with oil, when applied if. time. and carefully continued. Ile has frequently witnessed its wilsitary effects. The Nimrod!, Monza, from Liverpool, was seised at Boston, on the lath of August, on a chance of arming, and sent to Charleston. Ministers have received' dispatches from General I.CATIII. who is with the army of General BLAKE. dated the 9.d instant; -and we understand, that up to that date there had been no action between the Patriots and the French; nor had the latter shewn any disposition to bring on a general engagement.
