Mr—Joshua Kearney seconded these Resolutions, which led to much disco-hien. They were ultimately carrie.l, and sent to the Board of Aldermen, requesting their concurrence, A vote of thaoks to the late Lord Mayor was then moved and carried. Mr. Johlma Kearney moved the thanks of the She riffs and Commons to ;it. I..te Sheriffs of the City. Mr. Poole seconded this Resolution. Mr. Sutter opposed it. A debate emmed, and a ballot was demanded. In the ballot an error was discovered, and a second was taken, which slam also found to he erroneous. In the third bal lot the numbers appeared to be 47 fur, and 49 against, the vote of thaoks, on which the Chairman declared that tho Resoltstion was lost. After some other business Lad been transacted, The resolutions relative to the Repeal of the Union came down from the Board, the Aldermen declining 0 concur in them. Mr. Poole then moved, that the rewinds,. adopted by the Commons, on the subject of the Repeal of the Union, should standee the resolutions of the Sheriffs and Vow mons, and that a Committee should be appointed to pre pare a Petition to Parliament on the WOO. Carried unanimously. A message came down from the Board, requesting the concurrence of the Sheriffs and Commons, in voting the sum of one thousand pounds to Siniolan Marto° James, late Lord Mayor.

Williamson was retarnieg from Mallow to his resideme at Dromore, he was fired at by some per son from behind the ditch that bounds the road near Mr. (Mold's garden, and nearly opposite to Mr. Lom bard's porter's lodge. Immediately, on hearing the shot, he dismounted, and proceeded to the spot from whence he *apposed it was fired, but, from its contlgnity to a number of roads, the rake was enabled to make his escape. Mr. Williamson's boy, who was close behind him, beard the ball pass. It is a matter worthy of re mark. that in this case of inteaded assassination, there was nothing whatever commuted with trine, and the character of that Ontlesan is borne testimony to by all who have the pleasure of his acquaiatant, as most mild and conciliatory- That be is sot deficient in per sonal courage, his immediate attempt to discover the of is a sufficiently strong proof.

TESMAN: • THICATMVALS. • bamtv•Liirit THEATRIL—On Saturday night Hole ilteirrs Comedy of The Road to Rein was performed. The rest was very strte2', the reception of the Pere highly f Me. Tle condoned indisposition of Mr. MIINDEN prevented him from appearing in hie favourite character of Old Dorntois, hut his place was supplied by Mr. Dowrow with considerable talent. Mr. Ewa- Ton's Harry Bonitos is well known.

In addition 1 to the established perr..riners whom we have noticed. a Lally from the Exeter Theatre, of the name of Hoaxes, made her debut us Acophia, and experienced a very in tegrable reception. There is something so insipid in Ibis character, that it cannot be said to afford • au& elect test of theatrical talent; therefore, though we al low that :tin. Luouss acquitted herself with a good Ocal of ludicrous simplicity, we roast wait for some bighernndertaking to enable us to judge how far she is nimble of combining the intellect of comedy with its exterior manner and deportment. COYSKT•GARItte TftenTitir.—The performances at this thaw* est &cont.,' night presented two novelties Mies PSTOrt's tint appearance on these boards, and 'a newAllelcs Drama, entitled Ali Pacha. The success whit% had.alroady attended Miss Parox's exrrtions at die Haymarket; afforded every reason to anticipate greai sueeeei in the new and tnoreeolarged sphere of artivityto whirls her abilities advanced her. Our anticipations were (idly borne oat by the result. She made her commence ment as Polly ln'The Beg gar's Opera, and the size of the theatre, instead of detracting from the effect of her voice incited her to a more ambitioes display of Unilateral qua. lltiesand scientific enltivation. I n "Cease your Fanning," and other favorite airs, she was rapturously encored.— Indeed there seems lobe no reasonable ground to doubt, taking all the ci rcu eat a nces oilier reception together, that she will constitute such an attraction as must render the bperatic endeavours of this house highly interesting and popular. Mr Paean AN was the Captain Markcath, and notwithstanding the difficulty of such an undertaking, was a good deal applanded in many of time songs. Hr. &innate ran play nothing badly, hot Lockit is not in his line, ronsesprently it can add nothing to his profes sional reputation. The new inelms.drama is called Ali Pasha, but though intended to exhibit the well known tyrant, it is so deficient in characteristic fidelity, as scarcely to afford a single point of resemblance to the fierce Original from which it professes to be taken. The fable is altogether a work of imagination, and the chief' objection to it consists in the obscurity with which it is developed in the dialogue. There are in it, however. some passages of a popular tendency, which called forth - applause. Every allusion, however slight, to the cause of the Omits, was cheered, but in other respects the Impression was languid and imperfect. Mr. T. P.. COOKS, Mr. MOOT, and Mr. FARIAT, exerted thaw selves to the utmost; and Miss Foove looked beautiful in the magnificent costume of the East. The music pee, mem a good deal of merit ; and the scenery. and flow radon as, worthy of a Theatre so celebrated for Woo. aamental appendages.

OARILICK.—The extract we inserted en Saturday from Iwo Lewes's Memoirs respecting this Lady, in which she Is represented as the natural daugh ter of the Earl of iturliogton, is stated to be incorrect. —Signora Violetti, late Mrs. Garrick, was first Intresioced Into the Arlington family by Lady Bar thegt•n herself, in the capacity of companion, and she so endeared herself to the noble pair that they treated her with the affection of parents. The at taehmeat, contrary to the story in question, began on depart of Mr. Garrick, and the following antedate, which Is lightly mentioned by Davies. in his life of the greatector, is a fart well known to the friends of Mr. Garrick at the time :—An elderly Lady met Mr. Gar rick In the street, and asked him if his heart was en gaged, for otherwise he might marry a young lady of beauty, fortune, and virtue. Mr. Garrick, who did not then knew Signora Vieletti, answered in the negative and the Lady assured him that be should hear from ber soon. Many months passed away and no tidiags came. At length he met the old Lady again, in the Strand, and addressed her, requesting to know why he bad net heard from her. She told bias that be was mistaken, that he had never seen ber before, and that she slid not know him. Garrick was not so easily diverted from his par pose, and he told the Lady that he should not quit her till she had satisfied his curiosity. She then agreed to go with him into the back parlour of a respectable tradesemo near the spot, with whom lie had dealings. The Lady informed him that her young, heantifult and affluent friend, had seen him in some heroic part, and was chinned with his acting, conceiving that his own feefings must be coogenial with the character which he so ably imported ; but that seeing him soon after in 46g Bragger. she *as convinced that one who repre sented grovelling meanness and avarice so well, most naturally be *pally low-minded, her love was immedi ately at an kid. Garrick was so struck with this story, , lw was them cooeting Signora Violetti, and oppress bending the ponsißility of a similar effect, he took care that whenever (I - hutlingtou family sent for place., if he was tenet a pectin low comedy, they should be in formed that the Boxes bail all been taken.
