Tits ENGLISH' OrmnA —Last night produced Miss KELLY in Mandane, vice Miss Maims on the sick list; and INct.rouN iu driabanes, vice IsAACS, priori hoe, superseded. The former substitution was certainly one of an alarming nature, for, with all the eminent and acknowledged talent of Miss KELLY, we were not prepared to see her attempt the PrAin Donna in a sirloin Opera. We were delightfidly disappointed ;• tost only was the part hewer acted than perhaps it has ever been, but the music was executed with ungeonouon taste, power, and science. We werereally elect' ified by her efforts; and it seemed that this satte s s , Whom we knew to be capable of st 3 'muck wets in troth eap,ible of every thing which the stage'retinires. whole range 'of the drama is at her comumnd. In the comic she is lively, spirited, and humoronS ; the pa thetic,'simlile, oat arid, and affecting ; and now in the musical, We . find her overstepping her further bounds of the neat, artless,.and sweet, to capti vate the town' with the rich, brilliant, and scien tific. Siie is truly an astonishiug creature, and foe excellence' and universality of *genius - excels all the females upon the Stage.

After that, the defendants produced an examined copy from the record office in'ttit ToWer or London, of the grunt of the tithes of .t vatoor of Dartmoor in the 21st Henry 31 to the , parson of Lidford.
