These are the causes of our national distress 14 It is conceived that the butcher markets do riot at all npproximlite to the low ,(and indeed ruinous) prices which the graziers are obliged to take - in the stock markets : many of the consi dcrahle farmers in Northumberland are beginning to slaughter for their own consumption ; and se veral of the collieries regularly send to Morpeih market, and purchase live stock,, which is killed and distributed among their numerous population, with a prodigious saving in price."—(Newcastle, Courant.) The Chester Paper received to-day notices the late forged account of a Poblic Meeting there, vaich it justly denominates an " infamous hoax."

Last nTght. Othello was .train presented, with Mr. 'You NG as the Moor, , if,“ atACRRApY as logo, and the Play was materially improved by the exCliange of parts. Of the merits of the former it is scarcely requisite apart ,we snook! speak, utter the numerous tinter on which he has delWited the public with his chaste Yet impassioned delineation of the charac ter. Sonic of our know lahourers in dramatick criticism nave taken it into their beads to pro nounce that Mr. VoUNG is inflexible becime be i s p o lish e d, u m] mine because tie teulltkrs the whirlwind of passion , with judgment, and wants variety, because he does not droop below any at tragedy ever seen beim e these days, and thence' start, into flights and paroxysms nearly as far above theline of art, and nature too, as the sink 7 ings are below. We entertain a very different• opinion, and hope it is no want of _ skill to value an even force rising with the sub ject into majesty, or with the action into trabulenee, , beyond the trick of violent contrasts nowarranted Iry either. The Othello of last night was a very flue and consis:ent p ice of acting.— Nor was Mr. \I ACRRADY'S logo Interior to it. It , V as original, and of high pretensions, foga is, p,rhaps, the greatest villain on the stage, not much from the' enormity of his guilt, as train the r with which he conceals it. , The consummate hypocrite is snperadded to the consummate scoundrel. stabs and smiles; . jests with murders; and 01 , 111 i unutterable misery with the gaiety of a bhumtless heart. We do not think, therefore, that the character requires the deepest 1 colouring gn the delineation of its workings, logo k oftener met ry, at least in his exterior, than the slave of stormy feeliogs, and is so sore of suc cess io the !torrid game be 1)4111, that he rarely it vtutdei f,,r his own safety.—This appeared to he Mr MAC ft tz. AD Y concept 1011 of the part, and he old it g reat justi ce , Be was suf f iciently inipresi. ed with the tirt. adfid scheme he has in hand, bite stall Ire ti.rew it the cunning nonchalance which, in our mind, ennstitittes the peculiarity of logo, and was light, and easy wherei , er the hnsioess of the scene does not extort the energy of the vil lain. His reception was of the most gratifying kind. Miss Boy Le - was the Destiemona, but the character is, at present, out of her sphere. Mr. C. riEmßLe's Cassio again we may say is the best extant. Lodoislra, with its sweet music, and scenery sple,ai.i usual at this Theatre, and real horses, and a flaming conflagration, was produeed pro a►rimo. There. was a grand - tow made by some ,I,ses against the Horses, but the majoiiiy of the Audience espoused the cense of the cavalry, and they in return performed so admirably, that lobg hi:tore the closing scene there. was but one ring of applause.: After a play likeJ"nhello, we have no objection. to spectacle, and the animals, certainly render it more amusing and elf ctive than it would be without them.

The Pablic, we are confident, 'learn with . pleasure, that a handsome tribute of• gratitude has been paid to the whole British Nation in the persous of those who were the ; ilk,hitotters of its bounty to the Sufferers by the War in Gem oty,, which from its judicious distribution and applica tion has been productive of the i»os.t essential and extrusive benefits. The boon so vromptly bestowed, is duly acknowledged.. by high and low ; and by her generous aid on this occa sion, Britain has erected for herself, in the hearts of those who shined her benefactions, a monument more impel ishable than brass or mar. ble. So highlydid the King of Saxony appreciate the relief afforded to his effl.eted subjects, that some months ago Ite pre,•,ented, through Baron de Just, his Ambassador in London, portrait in 10051 super b gusts box, set with diamonds, to his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, es President Of the Westminster Coemit tee, and diamond ling* to 3 of the Secretaries, Messrs, Merten,• Howard, and Watson; and conferred the Order of Cit 11 Me. tit on Mr. Ai:kern - num, the 4th Secretary,• rt ith att. intimation to those Gentlemen, that an appropriate memorial for each teas preparing, at the porcelain manufactory, at Meisson. This promise . was fol• filled on Tuesday the Bth inst. when each of. the Secretaries received, through his Excelleimy Bat on dv , Just, a 4ase, eonteininK a magnificent vase of exquisite Workmanship and classical design, and groom of figures from the antique, aCCOUllpalliati V. ith letters from the principal Committee at Dresden, expressive of the mintiest gratitude for the-extraordinary exertions of British munificence. All the contributors to the. German Subscription will feel intetested in these tints, which serve to prove the spirit in which their liberality has been received and aeknoWledged. Mr. ACkuRMANN's consists of three pieces of porpelaine--it superb vase and two heautifui caste, iron) antique statnes. One Qf t ben* err sett t Castor turd Pollux, is executed after the celebrilted, work in the Kscuriel, which is supposed to be little . inferior in excellence to the Apollo Belvidere. he other represehrs Pylades and °restos. The work. manship of both is exceedingly fine. The figure's, which are ndieirably proportioned, are placed on a pediment eight or ten inches in height ; and the . , whole is composed of time fittest porcelain, which . has the appearance of polished nisi We. The ease, which is modelled l atter a fine specimen of the wive, is exquisitely finished, is nearly two feet in height. The bordering, at the month, con. sluing of a fanciful arrangement of cornucopia, bundle, of grapes - , and wheat-sheaves, is executed with singular feLyity. Round the centre attic vase there is every hetulsonte painting, representing one of the Roman Eitiper , irS, seated on the chair of. State, and anrrniintlo by t he proper officers.
