THEATRES. COVENT...ARDEN. Last night this theatre re-opened with Tht An tignary. Bill. were posted at the doors in the course of the evening, statiug, that in consequence of the sadden indisposition of Mr. TERRY, who had en gaged to perform Jonathan Oldbuek for Mr. Lis- TON. Mf. FADDEN had, to prevent the play be ing altered, and the consequent disappointment of the public, undertaken, on a few hours notice, to reed the part. The manner in which that gentle man acquitted himself of his undertaking was treditat.le in a high degree, and such to render quote uniteceinity the entreaty for indulgence with which the bills coneliadell. Ile received and de served a large portion of applause. The drama, speaking generally, was as popular as op the pre s ious representations. and threw its wontedlisci nation over a numerous and elegant awcince. It was succeeded by a new Pantomime (IDA new scenery, machinery, dresses, and decorations), the almost immemorial accompaniment of an Easter Monday. called Harlequin and Cinderella, or The Little Glass Slipper. If the merits of this piece were to be judged by its effects 011 the juvenile part, no small proportion of the audience last night, they would be determined to he first rate. Among these spectators it produced nit un itlierroped flow of merriment. and constantly re plotted bursts of laughter, and kept the eye of won der and astonishment strained from beginititig to end. The feelings manifested by these unsophis ticated judges were probab!y no had criterion of what was experienced by the reinaiiitler of the house ; sit least we scarcely recollect having witnessed any spectacle of that nature which merited to he spoken of in higher term., or which was more rich in most of the requisites of that species of theatrical amuse ment. Ist the introduction the circumstances of the spin• are pretty exactly followed to Cinderella's (Ilivs F. DBNNETT'S) disobedience of the Fairy, by outstaying the time appointed at the boll.-- There the pantomime, properly speaking. coin mences, the heroine bring transformed bine, and her lover, Prince Aledore (Mr. Et.i.aa), into Ilarkqrsin, and both doomed to live in wander iii4 and pessecution, till the lost slipper shall hove ke e n discovered. Their persecutors, Baron Pomp*. sini (11r. BARNES). the Baroness Ponspnsini (.bir. (;RISIAI.DI), and Pedrigo Longshunks. violently enamoured of Cinderella (Ir. NortNAN), are metamorphosed respectively into Pantaloon, Clown, and Dandini, an exquisite of the first water. After the two lovers have passed through the various perils, accidents, and escapes, com mon to such personages, one of Venues golden doses hears the long-sought slipper, and drops it on Harlequin's head. The spell is then broken, the Fairy re-appears. restores the faithful couple to their proper characters, unites them in bliss, and does dramatic justice by the rest of the parties. The machinery was better managed than we ever recollect on a first representation. The tricks and chaq,ees displayed a great deal of ingenuity and talent : we were particularly gratified at the conver sion of a pumpkin into a splendid car, to draw Cinderella to the ball, which is the only one the late ness of die hour allows us to specify. The overture and music. with some original composition, cons rises a very great number of the most lively and agreeable airs, several of them familiar to those oho frequent this house, but not the less delightful on that account. The scenery is very splendid and handsome. Among the scenes which struck us most was a distant view of Prince Akdore's castle by moonlight, and the Fairy Frisetta's palace. The Inttvr inelmies a very beautiful and brilliant revolv ing transparency similar to that in Don Juan. There is also a very correct view of the outside of the Opera-bouts from the Haymarket. and another of Southwark-bridge. Mach of the padre introduced is very judicious and just. The Dandy, for in stance, is made to exchange cards with the Clown; and Ma subsequent meeting, these two well-matched Geutleenrn at first run away, Ind whets compelled by their seconds to tire, shoot each Iris second. In the course of the entertainment the three Miss Dutist:TTs appeNred (fur the first time, we believe. since the formalion of their new engage= lurid). and danced their beautiful dauce.— They experienced the moat favourable reception. Tile Pantomime was admired enthusiastically. and is likely to have a Imig and succrooful rum. It was given out for repetition amidst universal plaudito. SURREY. This theatre re-opened last night to • most bril liant and crowded auditory, alio were presented, atter a spirited comic dance, with a melo-drame of uncommon interest, founded on the murder or JEAN CALAS, at Toulouse, in the year 1781-2. The deouratement is, however, altered from the on. gifial fact, and the Judges are spared, in represen tation, the horrible crime they committed in reality. The whole acting of this piece was so powerfully kit t:Teesive, that teen an overflowing holiday audience were at times so profoundly attentive, that the slightest whisper front the stage was distinctly heard. The fernery, dresses, and music, are all beautiful, and at the fall of the curtail' universal acclamations hailed the re-announcement of the nick-dame. The well-varied comicality and aplendour of ne Siege of Troy, with all its admirable concomitants, follows'', and kept the house in a boar of laughter and applause till the final close of the acetic.

Mem. The part of Rinaldo the Brave, was performed by Mr. Hamill' liensi.e. It would be doing much in justice to that Gentlemen to pass over his spirited and judicious execution of the dazzling hut Menu sietent and difficult character of Rinaldo--in that character is et once united the love of pleasure and the thirst of fame. Charmed by the fascinating arts of Arsida, he lingers in her retreat, but still sighs after the camp—still aspires to the glorious eminence from which he heal fallen, In his struggles to break away front Arniida, lie displayed the work ings of the powerful and opposing passions df love mod fame. With much ability and with just concep. bun, Mr. KE101131.6 availed himself of the different situations which the part presented. fits perform ance throughout did much credit to his talents, and was received with general approbation. The part of Amida was sustained by Mrs. BARRYMORS with great feeling and dignity. Her dying scene was admirably performed. We never saw the agonies of death so faithfully pourtreyed—it pro duced an ardent and affecting influence on the house. The various other pare in this delightful piece were sustained, generally speaking, with much ability. A tenacious critic might, perhaps, find some fault, not only with the piece but with the performers; but really where we find so much to applaud, it would be invidious to take advantage of soy trivet cause of complaint. The music is very fine, and the scenery at voce beautiful and grand. The piece was announced for repetition, amid the loud and universal cheers of the audience. After the play Miss USHER. whom the hill, with a pardonable exaggeration, de•.cribes as " the in- Nutt prodigy," gave her performances on the tight rope. Consider►ng the extreme youth of this young Lady, it might be said that her performance an this way stands unrivalled : site threw two somer sets in the air, alighting with her feet upon the rope each time—a feat which, we are told, had never been accomplished by any female—a feat certainly which astonished every one that witnessed it. Miss USHER, after some time, was joined on the rope by her sister. Their performance was honoured, as most unquestionably it d d, by the applause of the audience. A new comic pastomine, called The Golden Dream, or Horktptha Slane. concluded the en tertainment of the night. This pantomime is much on a level with the general run of pieces of this description. It contains the usual quantity of inci dent, and the usual number of tricks. and it pro duced, in a remarkable degree, the object for which we presume it was intended—the applause and laughter of the house. SADLER'S WELLS. This place of lively amusement opened its pe riodical budget last night to a gratified and full house. There were three pieces. all new. The fir•t was a Pantomime. The second was a serious Melo-drama, borrowed from the French, entitled Colas, or The Father and SOC The story is one of those extreme incidents wherein an innocent person is barely rescued from suffering for a sup posed crime by a modest - safety wholly unexpected. The French seem to be very fond of this kind of plot, of which the story of The Maid and the Magpie seems to have furnished the pattern. The last piece was one prepared fpr the main purpose of intro. during '• the fea►s of the dog Bruin," a very saga cious and faithful animal, who rescues a whole family, • one member after another, from the deadly machinations of its enemies. The vir. toes of this meritorious beast became a lesson of moral improvement to his superiors in the apple. cation of the dialogue, and his performance was greeted with as loud and heartfelt approbation as ever was heard in a theatre. The pantomime with which the amusements commenced was the brat pit ce. The begiuning of it was taken from that very celebrated ethical, allegorical, pastoral history, entitled Goody Two Shoes. It speedily changed into the broad active humour of Clown, Harlequin, and Pantaloon, and displayed a great variety of ingenious aid highly humorous tricks and inci dents. There are two little ladies, of the name of CAWSE, engaged, the one eight, the other eleven years of age, who sing with a style and effect quite beyond their years, acd yielded no small sur prise and delight to the audience. The highest sa tisfaction was manifested throughout the evening. Mr. MACREADY, of Covent-garden. commenced an engagement hilt night ut the Bristol Theatre, in the character or Coriolunus. A greet bomber of scowls are advertising at Ply mouth to .1 take out" passengers to Canada, the United States, &c. But the rage is considerably ablated. The Lord Exmouth carries (me only. Letters from Gibraltar mention the increasing spirit of animosity between the 64th regiment and the officers of the American squint . One letter, after giving some account of the late duel, and the further proceedings as to other challenges, men. 'ions, that the Governor had suggested to the Ame rican Commandant the propriety of American yes. 'els of war not entering the port. This, it was said, had been acceded to, and the squadron was itt con sequence ordered to depart. A most distressing accident occurred on Satur day last, at Mr. MELIMISII . S bark mill, near Cry. ditnn : As SARAH BOLT was attending the mill, one of her hands was caught between the wheels, and crushed almost to pieces, and in endeavouring to disengage it with the other, that also got entangled with the whole arm, which was shattered in the most dreadful manner; in this pitiable state she was conveyrd in a chaise to the Exeter Hospital, accompanied by a surgeon. Soon after her arrival Mr. Luscostas:: one of the surgeons of the'llisti. cotton, amputated one arm above the wrist, and the oilier close to her shoulder, which she endured with extraordinary fortitude. Thus a doe young woman, who the day before iedlostrimplijobeured to maintain herself, is now depeleed dridlogoss of present and future support. • . , . • 711 E TURF. , • 1 —...

It appeared that the three Prisoners had collected • great number of persous together by blowing horns and proclaim ing that they had newspapers to sell, coutviniag an account of the King of France being poisoned. The people whom the Prisoners had collected •bout them, began to behave themselves in a riotous manner, which instated the beadle of Si. Paul's, Covent-garden, to take the Prisoners to the waschhouse. The Impress which the Prisoners sold con lamed no account whatever relating to the King of France. The Magistrate, as a punislaineut to the Prisoners, and a worsting to others who are in the habit of cummiitiNg simi lar offences, ordered them to find securities for their good behaviour. - .

The beget of C.I. Willmar, of Truro, was entered early en Sudsy monde' setniliglot. and a valuable writing-desk stole therefrom, coataiaing 113/. in Gout" of the Millers Bank, a gold snuff-box, which had been prevented to him by the officers ofthe Cornwall militia, several gold seals, valua ble rings, and papers. On Monday two lads, shabbily dressed, were apprehended 9111 suspicion, in Sionehouse, by Day, the constable. Oa one of them was found 261. ie notes of the Miners' Bauk, with a gold snuff-box, several of the rings, /cc. belonging to Colonel Willyams, and on the other, some of the valuable articles already described, and 471 in notes of the Miners' Hank were also fogad under a bed in the room where they were. On being taken before Dr. Keenmeit and com mitted on suspicion of robbery, after giving several intonate teed statements, the elder Prisoner arm for Mr. Yeu, one vf the constables, and gave the following account :—He said his name is John Penwarden, that he is twenty-one years of age, that his rompaoion, who is sixteen years of age, is called Thomas Knot, but that he has also gone by the name of Smith. They resided at Sionelitnise, and some weeks since set out on a marauding expedition through Cornwall, in company with another boy called Henry %Yd. liams, aged 14 years—Afte► visiting most of the towns of that county with various success, they came to Falmouth on the 24th &Lase that night made an attempt to break into • shop there, its which they did not succeed. l'hey arrived within about a quarter of • mile of Truro on Saturday eight last, and took up their quarters in ■n outhouse, where 'My slept until about four o'clock, when they entered the town. In poising through, they observed that part of the sash of the window of the parlour of Colonel Willystaa's house was rained. Oneof them raised the mush higher, and pushing the shutters, entered the room and carried off the desk, which appeared the only portable article in sight,•ud which lay on a table. Penwsrden says it was the younger boy, Wil liams, that entered the room; whilst Kent and Williams say this was dune by their elder associate.-00 gaining isussession of the booty, they wrapped it in a great itoet belonging to Kent, and made towards the field., where, under a hedge, they forced opts the desk.— On discovering the value of the contents, they put up the papers carefully, lest by being scattered they should lead to a p►emature discovery of the desk, and taking the notes, riugs, seals, 4r.c. made off, and entering an out house on the road, they lay hid under the straw the whole of Sunday, in order to avoid pursuit ; here it was that they chewed moose leaves dust the younger boy had torn ont of a memorandum-hook they found in the desk, and which were afterwards discovered. At night they quitted their bid ing place, and taking two horses from a held, they put un theme halters they Aloud where they lay, and rude towards Rodman. Finding the younger boy was unable to ride, and impeded their speed, they gave him eight shillings and a gold ring, bidding him make the hest of his way home. They abandoned the hones near Bodiniii„ walked to Lostwithiel, and theme to Liskeard, where they ordered a post-chaise at the King's Arms, saying that they were sailors on their way to Plymouth. To the pust.boy they gave an Ivory box and a valuable ring to drive fast. The fellow accompanied the thieves to this town, and went with them to purchase a great coat and • hat each; be afterwards accompaisied them to a public. house, where they drank together. The younger buy was secured on Tuesday eremitic, and the ►ing which he hail given to the drive► of the Lord Exmouth coach to take bim from Rodman to Torpuint was recovered, as were the box and ring given by the other to the Liskeard driver. They had spent nearly 20. of the mousey, having been at a brothel the night before they were secured. The desk was discovered by some childreu iu a field about half a mile from Truro, as was the great coat of Kent, which they thr►w away, that it might not impede their speed. The whole party underwent an exansinatioe on Thursday at the Tows Hall, Truro, and were cumsnit►d for hod at the canna' Assizes.
