tHE THEATRES. thtuait-LAx E.-- The First Part of Henry the Fourth was represented last night at this Theatre. DOWTON gave the part of Falstaff with great humour throughout, , and excited great applause In all the soliloquies.. ELLISTON'S Prince of Wales had all the spirit which marked his repre sentation of the part in his more juvenile years. Hotspur received at least a judicious support from W A (JACK. The novelty of the night was Mr. A 1101E11, from Birmingham. He performed the part of King Henry, but though he acted with judgment, lie was much too juvenile in his ap pearance n.nd general manner, and therefore could hardly be considered as father of the Prince of Wales. The play was much applauded, and went offaltogether with animation and correctness. COTENTZ Alt D EN.— The Comedy of Errors, converted into an Opera, was represented last night. The addition of music can never be ne cessary in any Plays of SHAKSPEA RE, except those in which he himself has required it, as in Mac beth, The Tempest, Stc.; but it is impossible to approve of the modern plan of disfiguring the works of the greatest Dramatic Poet that any age and country has produced. However, as mo dern taste assents, Criticism may regret the violation, but must submit in contemptuous silence. There is, however, some atone ment for this profanation in the pleasure arising from the admirable performance of Miss Tars, in acting as well as singing. Her merit in the performance of Luciana is well known ; it was fully adequate to her former exertions, and she was warmly applauded.— Miss lIAIRMET.SLET, from the Liverpool stage, made her debut on this occasion, in the part of Adrianu. She is well qualified in person and abili ties for the London boards. Her figure is striking, her voice powerful, and of extensive compass. She obviously understood the character,and though she 'acted with spirit, yet, till she has wholly surmounted the awe of appearing before the London tribunal of Criticism, it can hardly be expected that she will " pull in resolution" suf ficient to do justice to herself. The Dromios wanted no support of humour in the ludicrous per formances of FA RR EN and BLANCHARD. The farce- was Katherine and Petrucio. The Tamer received all possible justice from Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE, and the fair termagant was kept up with corresponding vivacity and spirit by Miss CHESTER. WISDSOR, OCT. 3.—This morning, the day being fine, his MAJESTY, attended by the Mar. quis of Conyngham, Sir Charles Long, and others of his suite, took an airing in little phaetons up the long walk towards the Lodge, several of his Majesty's attendants riding on horseback: The Duke of Wellington arrived at the Castle last night, on a visit to his Majesty. his Grace left Windsor this day. We are happy to state that the King continues in the enjoyment of ekcellent health. The Duchess of KENT, accompanied by the .Prlnce"of LEINENGEN, left her apartments at the King's Palace, Kensington, yesterday after noon at two o'clock, to pay a visit to the Duke 'and Duchess of CLARENCE at Bushey.. Yesterday afternoon Sir 11 ettnißT TAYLOR held a Levee as Secretary to the COMMANDER IN Cite er, at his Office in the Horse Guards. The Duke of ORLEANS is shortly expected in London from Paris. The 'Basilisk gun-brig, Lieut. Dicxiox, Sailed yesterday from the Tower, with upwards of 100,0001. in silver, from.theMint, for Dublin. Yesterday dispatches were received froth Com modore Sir THOMAS HARDY, in, South America. The Tamar frigate, at Deptford, is ordered to be. fitted for foreign service ) and• Captain BRAIMER is appointed to the command. A letter inserted in the Glasgow Courier states that symptolns of insubordination have been manifested amon g the negroes in the island of St. Lucia. - The letter, which is said to have been written from a respectable mercantile house in St. Lucia to friends in Glasgow, is as follows:—" Castries, St. Lucia, Aug. 8, 1823.—Since the accounts of Mr. Buxton's motion reached this island, the conduct of many of the negroes has caused much alarm. Three notorious Characters, ring leaders in a plot against the white and free-coloured people, have been apprehended and brought into town. Last night was fixed for the commencement of their brigandage. The plot being blown, and every one on the alert, we hope the me ditated disturbance will be prevented, but we fear some severe examples will be necessary, and a considerable time elapse ere tranquillity and discipline be established in the minds of the negroes. So much for philanthropic speeches, producing misery and bloodshed in place of peace and good order." Tux HEREFORD PITT CLun.-7--The Members of this Club have announced their intention to celebrate the anniversary of that illustrious Statesman, on Wednesday, Oct. Lord Viscount Eastnor will preside. The will of the Right Honourable Countess Dowager of DYSART was registered in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury on the 25th ultimo, probate being granted to Henry Oreswolde Lewis , Esq.

The enumeration of ,jewellery in its distribution to a long list of relatives and friends is curious and valuable. She desires to be odic # n by he Irsle late Lord and sister , u nless she should happen to die i the of 'Wight : her funeral expenses not to exceed three hundred pounds. The will is dated the 240) May, 1818. • On Monday last the newly elected Bailiffs of .this city. viz.

Yesterday was the day appointed for the swearing into office of the new Lord Mayor, Alderman Smyth ; the city was in an unusual bustle on the occasion. In the evening the Lord Mayor entertained his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant and suite, the Commander of the Forces, the principal Nobility and Gentry of the City, and the Members of the Corporation, in the round room, which had been built and fitted up on the oc casion of his Majesty's visit to this country. Among the company we noticed the Marquess of Down. shire, the Earl of Meath, the Earl of Rathdown, the Bishop of Kildare, the Honourable Mr. Lindsay, Lord Combennere. the Members for the City anti County, the French Consul, the Attorney-General, the Solicitor-General, Mr. Goal burn, the Dean of St. Patrick's. There were present a nutn ber of our most respectable Catholic fellow-citizens, amongn whom we noticed Air. V. O'Connor, Mr. H. O'Connor, Mr. N. Mahon, &c. &c. A few Minutes before eight o'clock, the company having pre viously taken their seats, the Lord-Lieutenant, followed by his suite, entered the room, the band playing " God save the King." His Excellency sat at the right hand of the Lord Mayor. The Lonp-LiEuTENsw.r, on his health being drank, rose amidst loud applause, and returned thanks. He was pleased to say : that he felt peculiarly gratified at the manner of his reception. When he looked around him at the splendour of the scene which was so well calculated to recal recollections so indelibly impressed on the hearts of Irishmen—on the hearts of all loyal subjects—when he considered the favour of his re ception, and witnessed the feeling of pleasure which was re flected upon every countenance, it was his sincere hope that future Lord Lieutenants of Ireland should meet with such a reception as he had met with that day from such a company. The honour and the interests of the city would be best promoted by unanimity and good humour.—(Loud applause.) After several healths and toasts, His Majesty's Attorney-General for Ireland was proposed. The announcement of this toast was received with much ap plause; mixed, however, with hisses. The toast having been thank, Mr. PLuxtETT shortly re turned thanks. He said, that during a public life of fifty years he could never reproach himself with any act which was not for the good of his country and his fellow-citizens. There were many topics which pressed upon him at the moment, but as a diversity of opinion might be excited by the m ent i on of them he would not at present dwell upon subjects likely to produce unpleasant recollections —(Applause and hisses.) A number of other toasts were drank before the company se parated. About four hundred sat down to dinner. The coup d'ctil was splendid; and all the arrangements were so perfect, that not one individual was unaccoramodated.—(Dublin Morn. trait Post, Oct. 1.) EISTEDDFOD. This grand Cambrian Literary and Musical Meeting com menced on Wednesday last, at Carmarthen, with all the na tional enthusiasm which characterize. , the native., of the Princi pality. Public business began with Divine Service, and such was the anxiety to be present, that the church was completely filled before the commencement. Prayers were read by the Rev. Mr. Byers, anti various pieces of sacred music performed in thn usual intervals by Miss George, 51!!sars. Rolle, Man ners, Garbett, and Miss Owens--Mr. Perater presiding at the organ. An excellent and appropriate sermon, was then delivered -by the Rev. .J. Davies, - Vicar of Llandingat, from Isaiah xxxiii, 8, in the course of which the Rev. Gentleman, alluding to the more particular object of his diecourse, stated the design, of the new College at Lampeter ? and advocated a collection in aid of it, remarking that the ancient British tongue had been corrupted for want of due attention, but that several Eisteddfods Grad proved it yet exists in considerable purity, and that it was not too much to look to St. Davaid's College to reduce it to a standard. After the sermon, the Halleluiah Chorus was performed on organ in fine style, by Mr. Foster, and the collection amounted to upwards of fifty-five pounds. The concert, in the evening, was very numerously attended. On Thursday the company assembled at the Hall, at ten o'clock, when Lord Dynevor, the President, having opened the pro ceedings, the Rev. IV Evans, of Maeemynach, Fellow of .leeue College, Oxford, spoke at some length on the object of the me eting; after which the Report of the proceedings was read by the Secretary, the Rev. Mr. Griffith, and the prizes were distri buted :—To Mr. J. Howells, Bard, late of I dandovery,for Welch St a nzas on the occasion, a medal. To J. Parry, Fisq•Editur of the Transactions of the Cambrian Institution, for the same, a medal. To the Rev. Dan. Evans above-mentioned, for the beet Awdi (Welch Ode), the chair medal. To the same Gentleman, for the best Awdl, on the recent successes of the Greeks over the Turks, a2d medal. To E. Jones, of Corwen, the best performer's Medal ; anti finally, to the Rev. D. Evans, a third modal, for a .composition to the Memory of Ivor Heel, and his descendants, of the haute of Treciegar.--The subject for o the Bards, during t he Eiste d dfod, were then given ut, viz.— '" Griffith and Nicholas , who presided at the great Eistedd fod in 1451, and his descendants, of Dynevor Castle. particn lerly the President of the Cambrian Society:" and " The Itiitht Rev, the Bishop , of St. David's, its original projector."—The second day concluded, like the previous one, with a concert, which was numerously and most respectably atteraled. P 0 E T.ll. Yi A 'MONODY On the DEA.TII of R. BLOOMFIELD, the Suffolk Bard. ny w. FLETCHER. (From the Bury Gauette,) Sicilian maids I woo ye once again, And call ye from your rocks and heathy Your balsam breathing groves and Bowery Your forest haunts and fount 3 of' bubbling rills. I call ye from your desert shores, • Where the troubled ocean mars, Lashing with its thousand waves Hoary dill's and mould'ring Cave; From the forest dark and deep, Where the hamadryads sleep, Secure among their favour'd trees Cradled by the western breeze ; Or from gently stealing brook, Where the naiads love to` look, From the couch whereon they lie, On the lofty clear blue sky; From spicy meads, or woodland dales, Heathy plains, or giassy vales; Where the shepherd tends his flock From the height of some hoar rock, Pouring o'er the speckled field All the strains his pipe can yield; Or from pastures gay and new, Spangled with the, morr.lng dew ; Bank or brake, or shady springs, Where the bird of evening sings, Mingling with the water's chime All its minstrelsy sublime. I call ye forth, and bid ye hither bring In either hand its simple offering : Flowers, simple flowers, from blooming hedge-rows wild, For he was nature's own and simplestebild ; The humble daisy and the violet's bloom Shall droop and wither o'er the poet'S tomb ; With every bud and flow'ret of the vale, That smiles o'er Nature's face and scents the gale. With ardent thirst the muse's ►ictim drew Full draughts of inspiration pure and true ; Then plum'd his wings and urg'd his upward flight To move a poet in the worldling's sight: How recompens'd those worldings little know Who saw but his not him engulphl in woe ; Small care had they to draw the veil aide Which hid the man,—the poet they descried, And satisfied with that, no further went To learn the little form'd his poor content; Nor further sought to cherish, whilst they praial The being genius had so boldly rais'd ; But left him, when his glory had pased by, To lean despair and cold obscurity. Oh shame ! inglorious age, to think the muse But nee& the pay of words, howe'er he suet, : By all the eloquence of verse and tears, To gain a palliative for age's fears ; Ye part the poet from the roan, and deem The firmer all,—the latter but a dream ; But all is past, and he, the bard, hath fled To find repose among the lowly dead; The heart, that glow'd with feelings all his own, Is gill and senseless as the tablet stone ; His hands, that labor'd for his daily bread, When verse and ease' forsook his sithple shed., Are nervleless in their rest; whilst, unconfin'd, To purer realms hits tlowin his heavenly mind ; Leaving behind but perishable clay, What Bloomfield was in life's eventful day. Then strew, oh strew his grave, ye maids of song, With every tender blossom of the year ; Weave your wild roses cypress wreaths among, And o'er your minstrel drop the bitter tear. Maher let Innocence her footsteps hend To sanctify the spot where genius lies, And meek Devotion, by her side attend, To point him triumphing in happier skies. For hers he rests, within his silent grave, All reckless of the cruel trials past; Who sought, but found no human hand to save, And meekly bow'd to meet the adverse blast. The.rosy links which bound idni to the world Grew heavier as they moulder'd in decay ; The scroll of life, as slowly it unfurlid, But shew'd him sorrows' or the future day. His task was o'er—he panted to be gone; In other realms to seek his Maker's face ; To bow before the just,- the Help Oar, Reposing firmly on the promisiti grace. Then strere,' oh strew this hallow'd spot around, And o'er hitt mern'ry'drep the silent tear ; While from the stillness of the deep profound A whisper breathes in sad anti solemn sound, Your Bloomfield sleeps within his mansion here.

THE COOK'S ORACLE. Dr. KITCRINER. has at last avowed himself to be the Author of this very popular and useful Book, as we learn from the following Letter in The Times of this day : TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIME& Stn—ln your paper of to-day, I see a paragraph stating that the Footman': Directory is said to be written by Dr. Kit chiner." I assure you that I know nothing about the work thus attri buted to me, and beg that you will be so good as to allow me to st►te, that the only works of which I am either the author or the editor, are—," The Cook's Oracle," " Art of Invigotating Life," " Peptic Precepts," " Observations on Telescopes," " Observations on Singing," " The Loyal, National,, and Sea Songs of England ;" " The Sea Songs of Charles Dibdin." I feel myself called upon to make the declaration, because various other winks have been set down to me, of which I have not written a single line, and of which I would rather not be considered as the author. Your insertion of this in your paper of to-morrow► will much oblige, Sir, your humble 'errant, Warren-street, Oct. 3, 1023. WM. ICITCAINEIt. A Topographical, Military, and Scientific En graved Plan of Cadiz, Accompanied with 48 References, taken from this day's Morning Chronicle (in which Journal it originated), will appear in To-morrow's Observer. Some experiMents were made at Leith Fort, on Thursday last (the 25th ult.), with a newly invented shell, having the spiral motion, and acting by percussion. It is fired horizontally, has no fast!, and explodes instantaneously upon striking against any hard substance, so that it adapts itself 'to alt ranges. It was tried against an oaken target, four feet square and 13 inches thick, which a single shot blew to pieces. It is therefore supposed that it may be used with effect against shipping. DUEL PPEVENTED.—A meeting was appointed to take place yesterday morning at day-break, between Captain S., a celebrated playman, and a Mr. IL, at the bottom of which was a dashing courtezan, the admiration . of both. The Lady rather than risk not having two strings to her bow, gave information, but it got wind and left the snatching party bleouacking in vain, as neither of .the gallants attended .that spot. Highgate Common was the Place appoiuted. YANLET CrtecK., 7 -Yesterday Mr. BAILEY, the Deputy Water Bailiff, accompanied by a nume rous suite of officers and others in sailing boats, sailed from London in the celebrated vessel called the Sea Horse, belonging to Mr. CAP. Pan, of the Alien Office, the fastest , sailer in England, to the :Medway, for the purpese of going through the Yantlet Creek, lately cleared out. This is 14 first vessel which went through there these Wyears past. The passage cut is only live mike across from the Thames to Ro chester, and is a saving of ,40 miles. A GIETED FAMILY.—There• at present resides near Versailles; a retired subaltern officer, who accompanied Napoleon in most of his wars, who is the father of 9 children, and whose 9 children, .born in 9 different countries, speak nearly us many different languages or idioms. His wife was an Italian, whom lie married in Italy on the first invasion of that country by the French. His first child (Marie) was born at Milan, and speaks Italian, the language of her mother. His second (Guillaume) saw the light in Switzerland. His third, called Ali, came into the world In Egypt, and speaks on occasion a kind of Coptic. His fourth child was born at Boulogne-sur-Mer, when Buonaparte threatened a descent on England from that port. His fifth child was born In Germany, and speaks German. His sixth wasa Neapolitan, and is consequently called Gennaro (or %Inoue rius.) Hisseventh is a little Spaniard,called Diego, who has not forgotten the language of his infancy. His eighth is a little Prussian, of the ' name of Frederick ; and his ninth, Mademoiselle Nielto I line, Saw the light in the island of Elba. The eldest- of these children is said to be 28, the youngest eight. The mother is dead. These nine children still reside under the paternal roof, and render the house something' like a tower of Babel, A Ferrier, HicawAvstAsr.---Tlid Journal tie la Haute 'Saone, contains the following notice of the arrest of a desperate character :----The highwayman, :lathed Michel, who some years since was the terror of the departments of the Haute Satlne and the Haute Marne, has been arrested in the arrondiSiement of Vassv.

Changing again his name and place of r esidence, he established himself at St. Dizier, where; we are nisiured he was on the point of contracting a third marriage, when he was denounced by his first wife. At the moment of his arrest, he wounded the gen4Parme who seized him very • severely with a chisel.

Cu./ant - As I. issued a Proclamation, commandm ing the Nobility and Gentry to quit the metro:4 polls, and reside at their country seats. The constables were directed to bring in a list of suds as failed to comply. A remarkable victim on this occasion was a Mr. PALMEE, a Sussex Gen tleman, who was brought into the Star Chamber for disobedience to the Proclamation. PALMER was a squire of 1,0001. per annum, then a conj. siderable income. lie ' l3 a r pears to have born some rich bachelor; for, in his defence, he alleged that lie had never been married, never was a housekeeper, and had no'house fitting for a man of his birth to reside in, as his mansion in the country had been burned down within two years. These reasons appeared to his Judges to aggra vate rather than extenuate his offence t and, after a lung reprimand fur having deserted his tenant and neighbours, they fined him heavily in 1,000/, . Bow..STe EET (THIS Day.)—A gentleman op peered to prefer a complaint against a coachmati for ,abusive language, and also for insisting on his being carried in that Defendant's coach..
