THE THEAmE. Drury-Lane. TITE Comedy which has long been expelled from the pen of Miss LEE, a Lady of inerited,distinetion in the literary world, was last night ,brought for- :t Ward at this Theatre under the title of 77.11' Assl -station. It is w ith muc h regre Ctlint *t.4re - oblig 8.4 to state the - failure of a Fair Autlitit , Whoseitalf@tsi. have been so - justly admired; % ,Thilre.was,nothip,o n i nteresting in the Pl o t o f this r Play,.9c q11.1r.. 3 4 . 1 1 ;1, 4 3 16- 1 4ovelty of incident. The dialogue was arritt with neatness and eleganee in many part - but was too often tediously protraaed. , But the great, ob. .36.tion to the dialogue was its want of relation to the 'essential : parts of the.Fahle, ,Wliich it in'general by no means tended to accelerate. • We cannot help thinking that Miss LEE suffered herself'on easion to be ensnared by the generatcharaCter of inost modern Comedies, and ; wasinduced to believe that something of the dashini 'kind; in point 'of cffirac ter, should be att e mpted.

The - high arid roc sited regard In Whielt Our Navy is held . rendered .it n opossiblelhat an Admiral in a state of inebriety : should. be tolerated on the Stage even if all due 'Pint and geneiroSify otherwise distinguished his c haracter ; we, therefore, conceive that this'eharac- . te rbbiltributed to obstruct the success of the Piece in 110•Sinall degree. As these times are charaeterised bra rage for e cotnplishinents in all periods of life, there was some' humour in the idea of an old Lady employing .her aelnajuveniii ictadies, in addition . to her desire 'of makin g new conquests. If this chargter had: been. 'rawn with greater care, and rendered more prorni z'elit in the Piece,. it would have given considerable strength to it, particularly as it was assigned. to so b u id An AetresS As Miss POPE.

The flames were first discovered, by some persons in the .street, issuing from the back shop of Mr. SCHEYPE, a vender of mineral waters; soon after the fire spread to the adjoining premises; kept by Mr. MAUDESJAZY, tool and agricultural instrument maker. It was upwards of an hour and a half after the, fire had been disceveted ,that, the engine was supplied with water, the only resource being, during that interval, fiom a pump in 'the shop of Mr..

After a 'supply of water had been obtained, the fire Was soon extinguished, as there was a Nile& open ing on every side . the flames.
