The Scene lies in.the ftletropolis.—Mr. Sickle, a rich • Cloucestershire farmer, arrives in Lnndon, and atthe Inn encounters an old friend, Mr. Briers, a hop-merchant, in the Borough, to whom he recounts the naOtlve of his visit to the Metropolis; from which we learn that he has married a second wife, a young worn in, whose vanity and ill temper have banished his son and daughter, in search of whom he has undertaken his present journey. The farmer conceives lie has some clue to the retreat of his daughter, as she was brought up with her foster:sister Lady Mary Import, Who is now married, and restdes in' London. Mrs, Sickle, who is cfa romantic turn (supposing her husband to have journey- ed into Westmorland), takes this opportunity of visiting London, under the protection of Young Willow, a Platonic _Cecisbeo; but arriving at the same Inn, she is surprized -by her husband. Sir Sampson Import, a very rich Banker, and 4 City Knight, has entered into a second marriage, with the daughter of a ruined Peer, without a portion—a woman of benevolent and polished manners. The farmer's wife isle- Moved by Young Willow from the Inn to a private lodging; where hethreWs off the mask of friendship, and assumes the professed lover; deceived in the confidence she had placed in him, and indig n ant a t his advan ces , she flie s t h e house, ,and iushas into the street..

Mrs. Sickle here accepts the good of fi ces of the Serieant, who conduas her to the house of Sir Stepson, Where she" is most honourably secreted and pro heed by Lady Mary; torn which circumstanee - .several.cen kz, r ni eats arise, to the injury of this generous woman's _ hair. Mr. BonVere, the partner of Sir Sampson, proves to bs the Younger brother of Lady Maryi who, on his return trOrnihe Indies, had adopted that mode of observing hia:Sis tttii conduct, on which (the affinity unknown to her) he Often Ventured to comment With an ati3erity displeasing to het feelingt". inc.. Piece concludes with the, rescue of Sir George's estate by the genercnis. interfe r ence of Melange , ‘vith a conviction of the 'purity and honour of Lady Mary ; {he marriage of Jane and Captain Impott, of Melange and /44 ria. and the reconciliation of the farrner4nd his wife. of This i'iece, as We before stated, is the procluCtion Cli Bahr, the A&or, 'and. as he is an inditstri- V ls , a nd resikalable nian in p r i va t e lif e, we s h ou l d f e a t' much pleasure if we were able- to speak more i v i ° , ll rably of the work • th an i ts i ntr i ns i c qualities I " °1 5 4 ce , and the cha ra ct ers pro Utai-ratit, The table is a strange sort o f h otel/- 2 ed in such a m a nner, ' if 16 Y were in hopes of fi n di ng a p l ot on t h e i r. ir a ,Y.

Far from being disposed to examine this produetiori with critical rigour, we are much in clined to encourage a young man of fashion in lite- , rary piirsuits of any sort, and shall lie glad to hear tliat •other 'persons of his condition will fol low so laudable an example.. There is ,whiM and spirit in the whole, and as. it seems .to have been the chief purpose of the Author to furnish an out line for the Performers to fill up, we may congra tulate-him on the attempt, and.have little.doubt that his talents may hereafter be directed towards the same province with considerable' success. The Farce wants curtailment, and when a fei , retrenchments are made. it will go off with more spirit and.eclat.— It was well supported by the Pertbrmers last night particularly by FAWCETT, Who is the ludicrous hero of 'the Piece. • . . The ROYAL FAMILY left town yesterday morning, for Windsor. . . We have received Philade.phia, Papers to the 22ci of February. An article!from Philadelphia, dated • Fe. 21, says, " By letters received in this city, last evening, from the Natches, dated 20th January, it appears that Col. BURR had surrendered himself to the Civil Authority, and that his trial was expe6ted to come on in a few day at that place. The Militia of the .Territory had been alisenibodied, and things were fast retuning to a state of tratujuillity." From Baltimore, under date of Feb. 20, mention is made of the arrival at that Part of the Schooner Matcher, in,25 days from ,New Orleans, in which came pagsenprA Gert. ADAIR, of Kentucky, and P.

JAN 13.—1 ' have just time by. the Mail to inform you, that I received this morning a' letter from Col. Buart, at Bay)U Pierre, avowing- the innocence of his views, and the fallacy 'of certain rumours against his palriotism. His ob jea is agriculture, and his boats the vehicles of emi-. gration. - ' However, several military corps were 9r : dered to be on the alert, and .appehend him, and all suspicious persons, on the day before the receipt of his letter—these orders may possibly bring him into my possession. In his letter, he hinted at resist ance to any attempt to coerce him, and deprecates a civil war. This hint will have no intluenct on my condua. He will. be apprehended, if possible, at the hazard of the lives of our Militia and the honour of the Exautive. We are all bustle and aelivity. I hope in a day or two to give you a better account 'of this troublesome man." The Duchess of GortnoN bad a very splendid fete on Thursday night, in Grosvenor-square. Every - thing that nature could supply, and that art could ex tort from her, was abundantly provided on this oc casion. •It is said that no fewer than eight hundred persons attended, among whom were all the distin guished chara6ters now in town. The Prince of . WALES and Duke of CAMBRIDGE were the only branches of the Royal Family. present. Lady CA.ENAEVON opened her house on Thursday evening, for the fifth performance of the Ladies' Concert. A good Band was provided, and the %to- , cal department also was well supported. We are happy to corre& an involuntary error into which Our Reporter was led by the bustle o f so full • a House on Thursday, with respeet. to the vote of that most respe6lable Member, Mr. WhiTSIILD KLENE, on that interesting 'occasion. That Gentle man expressed his regret to be forced to a vote on the question; but felt compelled to vote against the Motion, because he thought it amounted to an issue between His MAJESTY' and his late Ministers at the Bar of that House. The Catholic Bill was wholly irrelevant to,the question ; but as it had been introduced into the discussion, he should say upon it, that, though he was a friend to the most : min- Mired toleration, he would not consent to any grant of power to thew. We have also .to correct` another mistake. The speech attributed _to Mr. HALL was not d e li vere d by that Gentlem an) b ut by one whose - name was mistaken for his. Mr. HALL, so far from having de ' livered such sentiments, did not speak at all cturing the debate. A Noble Prussian Lady, in the habit ofgivinga per=. tionof4l. to poor females in herneighbourhood, as an eueoUragementto theirgettinghtisbands,waSwaitedon one morning by a good looking girl, acCompaiiied by her intended husband, an ugly little deforMed dwarf.

The first witness called was Mrs. Harris, the wife of the merchant who had lOst his plate, and the daughter of Harris, from whose house it was said to have • been stolen. This Lady corroborated what had been . advanced by Mr. Y o ung, _who re d e em e d th e plate. :.She, after,the plate was lost, had missed her father from the houSe, where she used frequently to .call ; and, •althOugh he was in the King's Bench, that tact she could not ascertain at his s house. Her father was L . in arboderate way of business before Mr: AndreWs came to lodge at his house ; and 'she believed, and Understood from him, that ,he was relieVed from "einbarrasslnents which he had laboured under.— Executions were after Wards 'continually in the house. Mr. Parker,' , Pawnbroker, in Fleet-Street,. was ' • next called, with his book to prove the Pawning of the plate. : He knew the Prisoner, but it was. not pledged byliim. Two ladies came to the door in a carriage, (a.custom very, frequent) and one of ben) pledged 'the property in the name of Harris.. This Witness had been informed that the fatherhad rob bed the son. of the plate, or that the son had robbed the father. He had also been ,summoned before a Magistrate for giving up the plate, but his. accuser did:nOt attend. • • ri Mr. Brown, who resides .in the neighbourhood of Bedford-square, stated, that he lived on an indeppdent property, and first became acquainted with the Prisoner in the King's Bench Prison a few months since. He, Mr. Brown, was dis charged by 'the Insolvent mt, as well as the Pri soner, and about the same time; they had become the most intimate friends; and Mr. Andrevis, after • his releasement, lived in Great Russell -street; Blooms bury, where he kept his chariot and a livery ser vant, which was afterwards replaced by a tarnily coach and two livery servants. Mr. Andrews had given this witness to understand that he was on the eve of coming to an unlimited fortune, as the heir to Bishop Andrews ; and Mr. Brown and his Lady used frequently to dine with the Prisoner, as 'did he and his Lady with them. At Mr. Andrews's dinner party, Col. Davison, Maltby, M'Cullurn, and others, used to be-present ; . but these persons were never invited to Mr-Brown's table. In a conversation. 'between a Mrs. Roberts, who • used to dine at the Prisoner's table, that Lady, in the presence of Mrs. Brown, felt herself surprised at seeing. Mrs. An - - chews pay some tradesmens' bills, and pUblicly de-, precated so mistaken an idea. This witness had sub scribed four hundred poundS to Mr. Andrew's's Sys- . tern or finance, besides having done hirn 'sore favours while he was in the King's Bencli 'Prison. He'had also some bills of Col. Davison's acceptanCe, which were not yet due. Mr. Brown had also re: ceived a letter fiord the Prisoner, addressed to the Earl of Besborough, which was to procure him (Mr. B.) a place of three or four hundred pounds a year under Government, Which he delivered to the Earl. 'Mr. Brown had received this mark of kindness from the Prisoner atter he had lent him '4001: and _ - - he needed no promise for that advance, for Mr. An drews, by his candid open conduCl, had completely get the better of his purse, which he felt-no hesita tion in opening to him. 'Witness had received many packages trom Mr. Andrews's house, he hay ing Stated that an_ execution was expeded in the house where he lodged: Amongst these rods were some hampers of china, the property of Mr. Asser, who, the Magistrate observed', had given a descrip tion of the Prisoner's art in obtaining goods, which exceeded any thing ever heard of. Mr. Andrews's little boy was , ,playing in Mr. Asser's shop one day, when he was cautioned not to break a tancy article, which was for one of the Royal Family, and the Pri sorer observed, if he broke any valuable article, his, pocket was capable of replacing it. Mr. Butler had visited the Prisoner when he was an absentee, but the forma was led to suppose he was only 'out of the way : to save being arrested: The-Prisoner here expressed a desire that Mr. Asser's property should be re turned. A poor man s of the name of Newcombe, at whose honse the Pris o n e r lod ge d, l ost 25 1 . b y hi m, by pay ing chandlers' shop, and other little tradespeople's scores, gave a very singular description of the Pri soner's conduat. He atted the part of an embar- rassed Gcntlenian, and one day read a printed speech, which he said he had made from the hustings at 'pi- . wich, when he was a Candid ate f or t h e representa. , tion of that Borough in Parliament. Some other curious evidence was brought forward. Mr. AndreWs complained of the unfair condua towards him during the inquiry, and again . denied ever having , had an intention Of injuring, any.one. .A Committee, h e said, sat daily ,at .Fishmongers' to carryon. this foul conspiracy against him ; and however his feelings might be tortured by being made a ridicule in that Office, a Jury would con vince the world of his innocence. The Prisoner was again retnandedfor another ex aminatiop. .4.lqt/L .O.—A Most awful event .toOk place on Thursday last in the Collegiate Church of &Anhwei': A young man, of the name of Cook had been for some time attached to a young woman of the same place ; but peculiar circumstances, joined to his ill .state of health, had retarded their union. Cook 'was in the last stage of a coOtimption; had . been confined within doors fig-e weeks, and to his bed several 'days :.'his speedy dissolution appeared certain nevertheless, on, Wednesday evening be .determined on being united to the object of his - affedions on-the ensuing morning. Accordingly, about 'nine o'clock; he ,was with difficulty dressed; and (the house standing on the verge of the Chu'rch 7 yard), assisted by the arm of his infended brother- in-laW, performed his walk to the sacred edifice with a firmness which astonished the numerous spedators who were assembled at so unusual a scene. Through out the *hole of the ceremony his effort still sup ported him : the . Minister closed the book : ex hausted nature could do no more—the bridegroom sank lifeless at the Attar ! He . was immediately con 'veyed home, and every 'restorative medical aid could, suggest was inefretituall)&, administeted the vital spat k wa.. totally extingui4hed. • The Son of a very respeetahle merchant in the Ci ty has pin a period to his existence with a pistol.— The cause ascribedis.pecu4iary embarrassment, MIDDLESEX .SESSIONS, Aram 10.

Defendant,' was himself the son of an Attorney in the City of Dublin. : The.Prosecutrix was - the daughter of. re- Speftable _and reputable parents in the 'County of Nerfolk, and had received the education of a Gen tle\voman, at a London Boarding-School.—Youns; innocent, 'and unsuspicious, she becathe unhappily acquainted with yoring Gentleman of the Irish Bar, by whom sshe was seduced; and taken over to„the City of:Dublin-; where, under his prate;. - oon;‘ she enjoyed that.. comfort and affluence which, ru der, such circumstances, she, could have, until the Defendant : found r'neans to become acquainted with her. He proposed marriage ; and she, preterring poverty with .a virtuous husband, to affloence in., vice, about twelve. months ' ago became, tile wife of the Defendant ; ; but not. before he was made acquainted with her situation ; ie an swer to which he pleaded_ his ardent elite:Aida for her, and his anxious wish to make her , his wife. At that . time •she had a house handsomely furnished, and was ; possessed of snail weai iug 'ae parel and personal ornaments as taste and luxury might deem necessary ; but Three Weeks (per Mar riage had scarcely passed, when the husband asstim ed the chara&er of -the brutal tyrant, and his real, . object (the . possession of her little _property), be came evident:' He first disposed of her house and' furniture ; then of her clothes and . valuehles, and, • lastly, he beat her violently, and tutned.her out of doors, naked and defenceless. She once mare returned •to England, and sought prateCtion and peace in the bosom of her parents : but She was lot permitted long to reniairi a in tranquillity ; the De fendant followed her, traced her to her .parents, at Lynn,' in Norfolk, .and persuaded her to acco.ooany him to London, 'where they .rniied in .theadissipa- - lions anctpleaseres of the gay world, and here again the husband's depravity was 'exercised; he broke open her drawers, pawned all her clothes end little trinkets, then liorse-whipped --her hatred person ; andain that situation turned. her into the street.— This was not onlyrepeated, but When all her property was gone, and she had nothing left to support his extravagance, this athletic active young man,' who was capableof earning his own bread, atiealt a fesr a l her to prostitute her person, in order to sueply the means of his diasipation.. More than once she for- ' gaiie• thoSe aC.ta of violence, ,upon condition .that he would return to his own country, anclanolest her no . more; but, • in the month of, Mardi last, be again beat her most unmercifully, s o that her lite . was nearly despaired of; and, in order to ['toted ht . persine from further violence, she was under the ab solute necessity of instituting this prost.:CistiCtn: , This statement, with Many more fasts, were fella , corroborated by the evidence. It appeared, upoe the evidence of the person with whom _t hey lodged, that at one time the Defendant was beating the Pro-. secutrix with such violence that herecreams reach ed their landlady, who interfered ; and when the Defendant retired, she discovered that the unhappy: wife, and her infant child, bid passed the day with out a Mot - sal to eat; and while the humane landlady was giving some dinner, in her own apartment, to her and herchild, the husband returned, broke'open her drawers, took away all her clothes, and pawned them. The duplicate he afterwards sold to a woman of the town, for a guinea, and then went and stop ped the goods in the hands of the pawnbroker.— Upon another occasion he was known to declare, that he had no objeetion to his wife's ptostiiuting herself with old men, but not with young ones, as a Mutual attachment might be the result in such cases. ' Here the Defendant interfered, and said, that was only a joke over a bottle of Champagne. The Defendant, in person, cross-examined the . Witnesses, and only seemed to involve himself the • deeper, by every question he proposed. his defence he said, he was here a total stranger, not knowing a human being in Louden ; he had been inveigled by the • Proseeutrix into a marriage, and was not yet of age. She 'afterwards persuaded. him- to go to England; and kneeled to him on the beach, entreating him to .go-avith her. He admitted he had assaulted het and did not • deny that he' suffered .her to prostitute her person for his support ; abut,, as 'a •leading*feature fence,. he said, he was not. legally 'married, for he had procured a degraded clergymatneotheiOnly called in dial country, a couple beggar,- who pet formed the ceremony, for half a guinea. His father, lie said, -had since instituted a.suit in the ECCiesiastical Court, and his wife had been cited to, appearoin order to his obtaining a divorce. 2The•Jury found him Guilty, , and the Court de ferred the Sentence for another-opportunity. In the mean time' the Learned .chairman observed, that the person of the . ferirale must be proteeted froth ftiether molestation or violebee; and direeted the Defendant, by the time he should next - come up; to be prepared with Sureties to keep the peace, himself in 2001eand two sureties in soul, each.
