1 7'HE Rat, ~:..,, .. '' LADD. AND GENTLNINEN—The high approtvitiow wish aplomb roe hove honoured she preurntarice of this tragedy to-night, iodise,. us to helftwe that we have your penai•- sloe to amirunace it Cur repetition to-morrow everieg: COVIENT-GARDEN. The favourite comedy of The Clandestine attar singe was performed last night at this theatre. The parts. with the exception of Miss Finlay Sterling (performed last evening by Miss FooTs), were cast the same as before, and were sustained with until.. miiiished excellence. Mr. FA MIEN'S Lard tigleby was as fresh in its variety of interest as though he had never been seen in the character Isidore. Such a fantastic mixture of mode sod antiquity. hectic passion and decrepitude, obsolete gallantry and good taste, cats have been but selitorn known to the stage. Sir John Sterling's bluff mantle's and durfcassoile conscience. by Mr. FAWCETT—Mrs. Heidelberg's rude and illiterate ambition, by Mrs. DAVENPORT. were all admirably given. Mrs. C. K Est °LB, in Miss Sterling, Wag'its fine contrast with the tender constancy of Miss Faagy's affection, heightened by the more youthful goaccs of Miss FOOTE. Mr. C. K IMBLE and Mr. ABBOTT enact ed the lovers with much dignity and effect. Mr. Jousts's Brash is a most vivacious and meritorious performance. Mr. FARLEY', eigation was no less conspicuous for its grimace of menial adulation. The performance gave great satisfaction. After the play the lively farce of The Rende:voas was perfumed for the first time at this theatre and L was succeeded by the ballet of e Mare sand d'Esrhires. The house was very full at half-price, notwith standing the iuclesneucy of the evening. Yesterday being All Saints' (ley, the annual ser mon was preached at the parish church of St. Mar aret's, Westminster, according to the will of Mrs. Jo ti BARNETT, commonly called the Oat-meal Woman, deceased. She lelt to twenty poor widows in that parish 40s. a year for ever; 20s. for a ser mon, nt which, if able, they are to attend ; 20s. to the officers of the parish for a treat, and one of the dish,i at the entertainment in memory of her is al ways to be an oat-meal pudding ; rod 4e. 6d. each to the clerk end /extol!. DRURT-LA'S. 'the tragedy of Route awl Juliet was pertaimed last night, fur the purpose of introducing to a London audience, its the character of the hero, • Mr. Coortn, who hod previously performed and attained to • considerable degree of celebrity at the Liverpool theatre. When we consider the great loss which this theatre has just sustained in the de. pariure of Mr. KUM to • foreign clime. And bow very limited the mansber of those who strut and fret their hour upon the stage" is that disclose • touch of genuine inspiration from the tragic muse, we cannot but look upon it as a very fortunate cir cumstance that enabled the manager to read him self of this Gentlemen's !services at so critical a moment. To assert that be would fully sup ply the piece of his predecessor, would, as yet, be eltogetlier rash and premature. But we think we lsrvr seen amply sufficient, earn in a single exhibi tion, to affirm, that he possesses very mousy of the qualifications, natural and acquired, which are necessary to form a great rector, Hull that he pro mises fairly to become a distinguished ornament of his profession. Among the requisites for distinc. tion conferred by nature are to be euurnerated a well. proportioned, and graceful figure --a countenance intelligent, expressive, end pled's ing—a voice full, clear, and powerful, and an evidently strong apprehension of the beauties of poetry. Study and observation save bestowed distinctness stel correctness 4.f enunciation—flexi bility of features and expression —an Mr. osermer, and action, perfectly dignified and gentlemanlike— and that self-possession, ease, and acquaintance with the little secrets of his art, which are absolutely essential to the attainment of high excellence. He drevseil and looked the part to very great advantage, and iu a short time appeared to have made • party for himself to the feelings of the audience. He poured out the iinpastioned tale of love with great rorsootteur, tenderness, arid pathos.; though in the . arty scenes his tone at times struck us as bring some what WO deep. However his course was marked by signs of increasing favour with his auditors till he arrived near the working up of the catastrophe. where the great trial of the actor's strength is presented, soil where all doubly of the triumphsist issue of his Athol were removed. The passage with Balthazar, its learning Juliet's supposed untimely death, and that with the Apothecary, were finely acted. But his greatest effort was reserved for the vault scene. The trinisilion from despair to rapture, so in tease es to drown the recollection of his own approaching dissolution, on witnessing Juliet's re vival, was expressed with astonishing force ; its effect was acknowledged by the house in ass in stantaneous end tumultuous burst of applause. The dying scene as, givers with great pa'hos. Mrs. West's Juliet iv a piece of acting of * very superior order indeed. Mr. ELLIIITON struck off the gallant, gay Nervosa° very happily. Mr*. frhatowe's nurse, and NI.. KNIGHT', Peter, are deserving of very favourable notice. The applause was loud and continued. both when Romeo fell and when the curtain dropped. After the play, Mr. IllussaLL. the Stage Mana ger, advanced, and addressed the house to the fol lowing effect Five candidates have already offered themselves for the Fellowship of Eton College, which the !te•.

John Scott was indicted. under Lord Ellentos. rough's Act, for cutting Win. Thorne, on the 16ih October last, with a kn►fe nr other sharp instru ment, with intent to maim or do him tame grievuuv bodily h if M e Burrow, • watchman, whose bait was in Frith -street, Soho, proved, that on the inor ii iii g of the day mentioned iii the indictment, about two o'clock, he observed three or four men lurking •bout the house of Mr. Charles Bell, in Fritii. street ; he went towards them, and they walked •way in different directions; he followed one of them some distance, and on his returning to Mr. Bell's house he saw amine in the area, and he heard ■ noise as if of the breaking of wood; he was about to spring his rattle, when • man came nit and waked him *hat o'clock it was; be replied. " About two o'clock," and added, 6 6 there's a men in the area;" the fellow replied, " We'll soon area you," and at the same moment he received a violeiit Wow on the head, which knocked him dew'', and he the., heard the men call to their companion in the area to come sip, which he accordingly did, and they all rail off in diffsreut directions. The witness pursued after the Prisoner. calling " Stop thief!" •ud did not lose sight of him till lie was taken into custody. A bunch of skeleton keys was found in the track in which the Prisoner had ran, one of which opened the area-gate of Mr. Bell'. house; and on examining the door !radii% into the kitchen four gimblet holes were found bored in it, and the panne' broken. William Thorne. a watchman of St. Ann'., Soho. deposed, that he hosed the cry of •' Stop thief !" raised by the last witness, and observed the Prisoner g towards him ; he endeavoured to stop him, when the Prisoner, without speaking, raised his hand and struck him a violent blow on the fore. head with something sharp, which covered him with blood, and almost staggered him. The Prisoner immediately ran past him, and he followed spring ing his rattle, and never lost ►ight of him till Sea ger. another watchman, stopt him. He was then taken to the watch-house. He is certain the Psi owlet was the man. Robert Seeger, watchman of St. Ann's, heard the cry of •• Stop thief !" saw the Prisoner std took him into custody. Joseph Mason, !patrol, came up just as the Pri soner was taken into custody, and saw him put his hand behind him and drop something, which proved to be a chisel and an open knife. John Valentine Bridgman, house surgeon at Mid dlesex Hospital. attended IVolliam Thorne, and dressed the wound in his head. It was a wooled about an inch and a half in length, slid something less than a quarter of an inch in depth. It appear ed in his judgment as if it had been made with a knife, or slime siostlar Instrument. The knife which the Prisoner had dropped, was shewn to the witness. He said the wound was such a oue as that knife would have inflicted. On his crow-exeminsti 0000 by M►. A Dotnius, he said it was not s wound that would endanger life, or disfigure the man. The Pawner in his defence said, that he was coming down Frith-street, on his way home, when the watchmen stopt him. There was not a person in the street butytheas, and he made no resistance. Two witnesses were called, who gave the Pri soner a good character. The itecoanaa surnamed up the evidence to the Jury, who, after a short consultation, found the Prisoner Guilty. John Charles Craft was charged with stealing four flutes, the property of M . Goulding, d'Almaine. Putter, and Co. music sellers, in Soho square. The Prisoner was employed occasionally in assisting in the warehouse of the Prosecutors, by which means he had an opportunity of committing the robbery. The property was pledged at Messrs. Hobree'r, Charing-crow ; but the proof that the, Pri-oner was the man who pledged them not being satisfactory, the Jury acquitted him. He was again put to the bar on a similar charge. in which the proof being more conclusive, he was found Gritty of stealing to the salve of 391. Henry Baker was inincied fur stealing a great coat, on the 4th of Octuber last, the property of Thomas Buckley Bond. The Prosecutor left his horse and chaise in the charge of a lad in Judd-sireet. Brunswick-opiate, about five o'clock in the afternoon of the day men iiuned in the indictment; the Prisoner coming by snatched the great coot, which was throw,' over the horse, and ran away with it. The lad ran after him, calling Stop Thief!" He was immediately pursued and taken, but he had thrown the coat down an area. The above facts being fully proved, the Jury found the Prisoner 4ailty. The Ptowcutor recomtuended him to mercy on account of the good character which be had heard of him, but the Recorder told him he might have had a much juvter character of the Prisoner from Mr. Brown (she Keeper of Newgate), to whom he was well known. Charles Peter Norton was indicted for stealing a large quantity of jewellery and bank-notes from John Mainwaring, his employer. The Prisoner. on being put to the bar, pleaded Garth,. Mr. A !Are said he was instructed by the Prose cutor. that the Prisoner had done every thing in his power to make amends for the crime he had com mitted, There was a full ma•ket at Norwich on Saturday, and • good supply of Wheat and Barley, the former of which advanced gii. and the latter la. per coombe.

The Lord Mayor—Did yon print it from your own mind or at the suggestion and by the command of nuy other per. ▪ _ _ Mr. Stokes-1 decline answering that question, but sits ready to answer fur the offence of printing the bill, if it be any offence. The Lord Mayor-1 feel it to he toy duty to interpose upon this occasion. There are, it Noy opieiors, persons who might lake advantage of a public levitation of this sort.
