The whole amounts ! n t ""1Y 143 millions. This is not one half of Wi ttit Sir George Staunton was informed was the 14) P t Ilation. It is not likely that it has increased Inoch lately, because famine and civil wars have e'en frequent. lam persuaded that 150 millions ' 8 as many as it ought to he considered, Grosier 2 " 4 , es it about 200 millions.

In softness, grace, delicacy, and feminine accomplish:fie:its, she is not inferior to oi)fielyt, DesdeiYiona, or coi. deb, ; and though less prOmlnent in the drama than either or thVie, her Situation, her simplicity, her affections, and her misfortunei, create a pciw erftil interest, in which the finer feelings are highly wrought, without being strained to agony. To say that Miss Fool% excellent in the delir creation of the port is to pay her the poortst com pliment our pen can convey .—Youxo's laehitao and CON IS' AV'S PUSHIUMUS were admirable ; and LIStoN•4 Cloten did its ditty in relieving the glOomier shades of this dramatic exhibition with the lights of broad Comedy. The house was filled with a fashionable au dience; and we ought to state, before concluding, a circumstance with which perhaps we should tare set Out, that the entertainments were for the ' K ock of the amiable Actress Whose exertions have calletl forth our ettlOgy, and who is c e rtainly the most promising successor to that great public favourite, Miss BuLTOI4. FlAYltlAttliliT.----The very langbable Comedy of The Heir at Law displayed last night its usual at traction. The house was completely filled before the rise of the ct:rtain, and the Play was too well cast to have produced the slight'est disappoint;- mem. •The novelties of the evening were the new Lord Duberly (Mr. IVarrxtt4sost), who c onceived and execuied the part with much eecenttic hu mour ; the new Zekiel (Mr. Catsr), who gave the Yorkshiremarf a very different colouring to Illat ill Mr. V.:ABBY, still preserving; the provincial costume of the county ; and Caroline Dotnier by Miss MAC ALPINE, the sweetness of whose weak but flexible voice, • delicacy of manner, Sylph.like fignee, anti impressive acting threw such an in terest into the .character as has not been lett since the appearance.of Mrs. STZPHISNI KItNIBLE at this Theatre. After the Comedy it WNS annotmeed that the Farce ut the dgreeable Surprize could not com mence on account of- Miss ClATTuf.ws being obliged to perform at 'Covcnt•Garden. The house waited with uncommon patience through tire tediousness of ill-played Overtures ; the %,eari ed galleries, however, called for a song to colken the tedium, and a Mr. HoDS(P.I Caine forward to amuse them with the Bay of Rseay— this disagreeable surpriseot the Lady's absence Was, after a long interval, relieved by her appearance in Laura, when sonic unmerited disapprobation was expressed, as the tank was not bet's ; this was soon lost in the whimsicality of Lingo and Cowslip, and verified at length, " all's well that ends Well." It would be unnecessary to speak of the per. formative in this Farce,. when Mr. PAWCEV r, Mrs GIBBS, and Mrs. Day roaT, sustained the pi in. cipal characters. ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES. ARBIVALS.

As Managers of a Public Institution, the per ' ions here so mercilessly reviled ( may be amen able to public criticism r but the author can have no excuse for entering into the private life of those against whom his hostility is directed, and accuse them of crimes too horrid even to be hinted at.

The pugilist winced at the whip, and'on his civilly asking the assailant if he meant fighting, the man put himself in a boxing attitude. Oliver doffed off his coat, if trill to it they went. Five rounds were fought, and the. pugilist went on to win off hand, hut he found himself engaged w'ab a formidable antagonkt, who could hit dexterously.
