The Audience, amidst all the pleasure which her talents excited, seemed to be sensible of the fatigue which must ne cessarily attend her exertions, and, therefore, only encored her in ".Let. not rage,'.! and 'c The Soldier tir'd," both of which she warbled so exquisitely as to extort the demand of a repetition. The Opera went off with great eclat, to which KELLY and Mrs..MouvTAIN contributed,. as well as the he . rome of the Piece.

Several 'exa.. minations took place, in which her conduct appear ed sd suspicious, that she was threatened with the torture, the' fear of which induced her to confess a crime . she had never cormnitted. m The Judge con dened her accordingly, and the,poor innocent suf fered death. - About five or six days after her exe cution the husband arrived, having 'been kept 'three years in slavery by. the Algetines, who had Made him prisoner. He inquired after his wife, and soon , learned her unjust accusation and unfortunate death. In the paroxysm of his anguish he appeared before her _accusers and her judge, upbraiding them JUT their cruelty and - injustice : but instead . of gaining consotation .for the wrongs clOne to his wife,' they treated him .as an impostor, insisting that the real husband had been murdered, and that the deceased was guilty, and condeMned him to perpetual, banish., merit for his impious conduti, in supposing the judge' to be capable of acting wrong.. •.
