Last night Mr. Sreratts Kissing performed Fairraf, for the last time this season, and received much applause. Mr. Ktm six's Hot , pur has been always considered a 41 d'oeuvre in the scenic art. Never did this admirable performer display mere energy or excellence. Mr. C. K 'mitt looked and played the Prince of Wales extremely well, and was entirely free from the plaintive tone in which he toe often indulges. Every part was well filled ; and every attention paid to costume. decorations, &c. The grand attraaion of the night was the debut of Mrs. C. KEN at r, on the boards of Covent-Garden Theatre, in the part of Maria, and of Mr. M si in that of Yeas, Pluipot. Mrs. C. Kt eta was receiv ed, on her enure, with peals of applause. She looked extremely well, was in high spirits, on which she laid no restraint, and was much applauded. Mr. Mst.vlN gave an excellent pidlore of the young Citizen. In the scene with Corinna he was quite at home, and received much and merited applause. Did Paper is not one of Mr. Muatass's happiest ef forts ; it was .too grates's, to be natural. However, the whole performances of the night received the Most unbounded approbation, and the Farce was an• ;winced for second representation amidst reiterated plaudits. The house was filled with elegant com• paay at an early hour, and, before the commence. went of the Farce, there was an overflow. POETRr. EPIGRAM.

THE COURT. His Kotsrr, as usual, came to town yesterday, at twelve o'clock, escorted by a party of Light Horse, and had a private Levee, at the Quat.h's Palace, soon after two o'clock, which was attesuletl by The Lord Chancellor. The Lord PIM Seal. The Fi st Lord of the Twiner. The Secretar♦ of State R•r Foreign Vrairs. The Mauer-General of the O•dnance, The Vint L.wd .f the Admiralty. The Jodie Advocate. The Preto lent of th. Board of Cartrossl. The Master of the Rolls of trelsod. Lords—Motherst and ifeetheeld. Sir P. Hales. The following had the honour of being presented, and kissinit hands, upon their appointments:— Mr. Tiet7,ey, upon his being appointed President id' the hoard of Controul, by Viyeuent lloarick Mr. Curran, by the rams, upon 114 being appointed Master of the Rolls in Ireland. His MAJESTY held a Privy Council, in which se veral official orders were made. His MAJESTY gave audiences so the Los o CHANCELLOR, Lord GRENVILLE, Earl of MOIRA, and Mr. BONO, who laid before His MAI est Y the tdroceedings of several Courts Martial. Soon after five o'clock, His Mw.- Jury set nff on his return to Windsor. Viscount Si DMOUTII attended as President of the Council ; but, we understand, was not officially de clared to that office, owing, it is supposed, to a point of respedful efiquate of Lord HOLLA`:EO to the memory of his beloved uncle, not to accept the Privy .—. • . Seal till after his funeral. . NAST lIVUS, SEPT. 28. You have had such information respetling the Leeward Island fleet, that it is unnecessary to say any thing about them—they have been passing here these two days and nights, in small fleets, seemingly very much scattered. The Commodore had a deal of trouble passing here, being so near :he French coast ; be was firing signal gins the whole of last night, but 1 heard the fishermen of this place say, that he got safe past. The Duchess of Dorset, Lord Whitworth, and the young Duke, are the pricipal supporters of the gaiety of this place ; they honour the public assem blies with their presence: I understand they are to remain until late in the season, as his Lordship is fond of shooting, and finds this part of the country favourable for that purpose. Two troops of the 6th (or Carbineers) marched into this place on Saturday and Sunday, in the room of the 17th Light Dragoons that are ntiw em barking. This part of the coast is very poorly pro tefted to what it has been, as they have not sent any regiments to replace the Sath at Battle, the 88th, 87th, 2nd 40th, at BexhiU, or the sth at Rye. Sir Arthur Wellesley left this, on Sunday morn ing for town, we understand, on some particular business, and has not since returned ; it is reported that he is to have the command of one of the expe ditions, but no one here knows any thing whatever about it. iIiGE WELLS, SEPT. 30. The weather' continuing so serene, makes this place uncommonly brisk ; we are feller now, than we have been at any period of the season. Many families, just arrived, have taken house, to a very late period ; our season, alter Michaelmas, bids fair to rival the summer one. Large parties of Fashion shies make daily excursions to i'enshurst, Buckhurst, Bayham, and other surrounding seats ; and the pretty animals, of the braying specie•, though nat•irally tough, are ready to sank under their diily lahrur. The Theatre is now the sphere of at traßiou ; and, after the morning ride has heightened the bloom, and whetted the appetites of our Be!!-r, they shine with additional grace from the side boxes, carting their bewitching smiles en all around th , m. The House will continue open till the middle of next month ; we understand that every family, in suc cession. intends to honour it with their patronage. The hops are now nearly housc.d ; and, in general, in capital order. 'The crops in Susses are immense; 18, 2'), and 22 hundred for an acre, are common crops in Sussex ; and Kent, which formerly outvied all, is now far outdone by the former county. The number of pheasants being very great, our sportsmen expet fine sport to•mortow ; and the weather being so favourable, no doubt there will be terrible slaughter. It has been no uncommon thing for a sportsman to turn out of his bag three or four brace of partridges, the fruits of his morning amusement, several days successively ; but it is pro bable that the bushes and thicisets may impede some of them, much to the good fortune of the pheasants, who will otherwise have no chance wish such capital shots. Among our last arri►als are, Collet and C,autess S•akrenabarg ; Co , lnters Ennl ; T. abrai Ellentwinue. and Newark ; Marc:rico...a of Diner' ; Lo•da Chfien, Newark. and i fawardlen , Mews.

Oia Monday the wind was unfavourable. General Car/asst., the Chief of the Corps of Royal Marines, resident in Lood .n, has, to the great regret of that scope :table Corps, accepted the retirement ; in consequence of which the following promotions have taken place in the Royal Marine Corps ; General Csmcsar, to commeol in London; Lieutenant-Colonel WisiT ea,. of the Portsmouth Qprision, is promoted to be Se cond Colonel-Commandant at Plymouth ; Major Fotcy is promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel of td.is ewe Woiyoa; and Capt.

At a Meeting in Common Hall of the Mayor and Common Council of Nottiugham, it was unani mously resolved to depute Mr. Mayor, with other Meather, of the Corporation, to accompany the funeral obsequies of Mr. Fox, in testimony of the veneration is which they held his patriotic talents and virtues. The following is a copy of the Resolutions : TOW 3 Of NOTTINGHAM. TO WIT. At a Cons Hall or Meeting of the Mayor and Common Conned of the said twin, held at the Guildhall of the said Men, on Wednesday, the 24th day of September, 11106; appearing to this fiall, mat the came of civil and relisious Weeny, awl the genuine interer.ta, not wily of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Litt also of f.utope, perhaps of the world, have sustained an irreparable loss, by the death of the Right Hon. C. J. Fox, uniformly their most able advocate, and zealous defender; a man, to whom, tan account of his extraordinary political sagacity, the amplitude and mat te:tons of his views, lie clearness and streogth of his cancel.- tio .s, the honesty and generosity of his heart, the fitness and prvinistituale of all his measures, and the full confidence of the iriblic in his talents and anittes, we were looking up for direc tion, an the prevent moat difficult conjoncture of our public affairs, mil fur the restoration of a site and beneficial peace to this country, and to E.iiro;,e at large. Be it therefore unanimously re. rived, as a just and grateful tohute of res:rect to Sloe memory of this exalted Character, and as a public mark of our unfeigned sorrow and regret for the death of a man whom we have constantly ad.nired cad heed--.a sorrow and regret moderated only by our belief in a it ere and Prtridricei—rhat the Mayor and Town Clerk of this Cerivaairon he directed to aicompany his Funeral Ur 'armies to that grave to which hi', mortal teuiaiiis will be cum. matted; but not the remembrance of las spleadvi tateau, his amialtie steatitic'', and his patriotic terriers. Examined with the original scurry in the Macer's Beek s and is a Ulla Copy, (S;gnel) GEORGE COLDHAM, Town-Clerk. We understand that it was the particular desire of Mr. Fox, that his funeral should be as plain as possible. The coffin will, therefore, be covered. with plain black, without any ornaments whatert r. 'the St. James's, Westminster, and other Volunteer Corps, will be nut at an early hour on the morning of the 10th, and line the streets through which the solemn procession will pass to Westminster Abbey. The exterior coffin is only eighteen inches 4eep, and two feet wide across the breast. WORCESTER MUSIC MEETING, Sur. 23. The Triennial Meeting of the three Choirs of Gloucester, Worcester, and Hereford, commenced on 'l'uesday last, at Worcester. In the morning, a sermon was preached at the Cathedral, by the Rev. G. Turberville, Vicar of Hank► ; and the discourse excited that most decisive and. unequivocal appro bation—a liberal collection—the sum contributed at the doors amounting to 1671. Bs. being 331. more than was celleded at the last Meeting. In the evening, at the Culler H4ll, the oratorio of 41:1.- ander% Feast, attraderl a numerous and brilliant au i:nce, and the performance went off with great eclat. A grand Seledion of Sacred Music was performed at the Cathedral, on Tednesd ry morning, and a Miscellaneous Concert at the Hall, in the evening: the attendance at the former was crowded, and truly respedable ; but such WAS the attradion of the latter, that fire hall, gallery, and even avenues, were 6lled, and a number of families were com pelled to return, not being able to gain admission. The Messiah, on Thursday morning, drew an iro ner:se assemblage of company. an 3 the Cathedral erns completely tilled an hour before the perfo•ns ance began. It was executed with the greatest coy redness and effect. In the evening, at the College- Hall. the Festival concluded with another grand - Mrscillaneous Concert ; in the course of which, Mrs. B:llingtott agreeably surpriArd the audience, by in troducing the favourite song of The Seidler tir'd, and was rapturously eiicJeed. Mr. Clara was the new condudne ; and the com pany bestowed a just tribute to his great exertions, by espressing, throughout the whols, the highest ap probation. The instrumental pet fotmers well merited the ap plause that was repeatedly given them. Of the vocal performers, Mrs. r:ilington was again receiv ed witn rapturous welcome. Mrs. Vaughan and Miss Fanny Ross Melville were generally admired. Messrs. Harrison, Knyvett, Vaughan, and Jager, retained, in full pertedroa, their accustomed taste and science ; and although the absence of Bartle man was greatly regretted, considering the short ness of the notice, Mr. Beale acquitted himself tolerably well. The Brea: attention and politeness of the Stew arils were not less noticed than admired; and the respeit shewn them by such a numerous attendance of rank, beauty, and fashion, must hare been highly gratifying.

Lloyd and Co. bankers, in Lothbury, yea. terday underwent a second private examiptiron I the result of which was, that the Emus Mayon re manded him until this day, when the case will 1i investigated in public. William Cork, a young man of the Jewish per suasion, was brought before the Alderman, who preside d in the public Court for the Lord Mayor s on a charge of grossly assaulting a woman. The Pi isoner positively denied ever having cruel; the woman,• and asserted. that she was figbti:.g with a shoe-maker, when he endeavoured to part them, and sail, it was a shame for her to behave in such a manner. In consequence of this, the Coinplaintant struck him several times, and knocked him down. Two Jewesses appeared to corroborate this story g hot as the Complainant's witnesses were not pee. sent, the Alderman refused to make any decision until Friday, when all the parties were ordered tp attend. staateounfou-iraerr, A very singular charge was made at this Office. yesterday, by a Mrs. L. who reside' in Edward. street, Cavendish-square. against her strew. Mishipman in the Navy, and also the ne wof a great and gallant naval Commander, for wilfully and maliciously firing a pistol loaded with ball., with intent to kill Mrs. L. or to do her none vie,' ous bodily hand. It appeared in evidence, that the Prisoner, a Mid• shiprnan on uoard the Moierch min of was. ob. twined liberty to go on shore for three days ar Port:. mouth, whilst the drip lay at Sp 'bead, &beep ranee weeks since ; sod at the expiration of his leave rf ab sence, he came to town instead of returni..g c n board. The Presecutriz, allowed the Pm r.er to make her house his home, when he first arrived in London, but his subsequent ormolu& was such as to duced Mrs. L. to forbid him ally longer to stay with her. tie took apartments in the vicinity of Il• I,oY square, which he left yesterday morairg. and is formed his landlady, that be would s.o 4 muesli in the course of the day. He went to t.te house of his aunt. and having, by a gentle ki.ock at the doer obtained admittance, and rushed up stairs into the drawing-room, whets Mrs. L. was at breakfast. He then drew a pistol from the pocket of his small clothes, having p-evinualy asked Mrs. L. for Or give . Gess. and her friendship, which was refused and clapping it to his stomach. in an oblique lorec -602, with the trigger guard resting against he sit:- mach, be pulled the trigger, and trie belt w.th which it was loaded, pseud through the table-cht. us-,se to Mrs. L's hand, and splintered assay par_ of ihe - table.

He brought him to the Office, and the (di. ficer also produced the pistol, the ball, which he found under the table, and the table-cloth, with as hole in it, In defence, the Prisoner denied having any evil intentions towards his aunt. but it was lady his intention to destroy himself. lie was consint.ted under L Ellenborough's Mt, and scuoreored to be brought up again on a louse day. A simlar circumstance occurred at Knights. bridge, on Faraday evening; a yoqng man, selto is at the eve of becoming possessed of a consider t ble fortune, went to the house of his guard was, cu ask for a sum of money ; lon on the 1.4:13e befog re fused him, to throw away profus,-iy in fatiirsisatle dissipation, he fi red a pistol at his own head, t'.-* ball from which lodged in the waineeot of toe room.

Yesterday, George :with, apparently a labouiinz man, was brought, in calculi at the Constable ci Finchley, before the Si rei 0 MAOIST it 4T 1.1, at this Office, charged with having been found us an inner yard, belonging to the dwelling-house a..d premises of Francis Mathews, Liq. at Finchley, with a felonious latent. Some tints since, this gen. tlemao's premises were robbed, which made his ser. Tants more upon the alert than before. O.s Tort day evening, his groom bearing the dogs bark an* commonly, west out to reco;nortre, and discovered the Prisoner lying in the loner yard, under the gra nary (an inclosed place), where he could not have 'entered without forcing the gate lock, or clunhi..g over. The Prisoner said, be had been to see his friends, and being tired, he lay down to sleep a little ; he carried a bag, waich ne said he brought with him to get sone apples and plumbs frotu the friends. who kept gutless' in that neighoourhood. It appeared in evidence, that two nights before, the premises of Mr. Union, of Finchley. had been robbed of a quantity of lead; and, about a week before, a great part of the root of riacbiey Church was stripped of the leads. Under these circumstances, and the Prisoner not being then able to give a stistaaory account of himself, or to find Turtles, he was committed until the Sessions, as a rogue and vagabond, purraant to the mt.
